Chapter 1100 Li Zihua and Crimson Goddess
These peak figures whose hearts were palpitating also included the Soul Accumulation experts who had now appeared on the Black Heaven Race's land.
A drastic upheaval was unfolding in the Black Heaven Race.
The war was starting!
Back then, after the Human Emperor released two complete Suns of Dawn, the Black Heaven Race suffered a huge defeat and countless casualties. In the end, they could only hide their entire race in their large region and activate their regional treasure to form a protective barrier to resist.
Although the human race had withdrawn their troops, the light formed by the Suns of Dawn in the Black Heaven Race blanketed the area. Hence, there was continuous damage, and over the years, the number of deceased clan members grew, with only one in ten newborns surviving.
To the Black Heaven Race, the price of this war was too great, so great that the foundation of their race was shaken. Moreover, their god seemed to have given up on them. They had called out to Her countless times but there was no response at all.
This caused the Black Heaven Race to be even more miserable. Due to their characteristics, it had been very difficult for them in the past few years and they didn't have the strength to start a war. They only wanted to survive this storm.
However… it wasn't that war wouldn't come just because they didn't wish for it.
This time, the attacking force came from the Holy Wave Large Region. The human army and the army under the Grand Duke Holy Wave tore a gap in the Black Heaven Race's defense.
Through this gap, the army surged in.
The one leading the human race's army wasn't Seventh Prince… but an expert from his mother's family, one of the thirty-three Heavenly Kings of the human race.
King Tian Cang!
He was also the Seventh Prince's uncle!
He personally led the army and led all the military forces in the Holy Wave Large Region to launch a war against the Black Heaven Race. It was also him who used a supreme treasure to penetrate the defense of the Black Heaven Race.
Even the Grand Duke Holy Wave had to act humble in front of King Tian Cang.
This was because every one of the thirty-three Heavenly Kings of the human race… was at the Soul Accumulation realm!
As war erupted, with the battlefield thundering and the echoes of slaughter piercing the heavens, within the region of the Black Heaven Race, regardless of affiliation, any peak cultivator was instantly shaken. Involuntarily, they raised their heads, gazing towards the sky, towards the fragmented-face of the god.
While the myriad races were staring at It, in the Moon Worship Region, on the Red Moon Star, in the Moon Palace… the aura of Crimson Goddess erupted.
The ground of the Moon Palace transformed into a viscous sea of blood, and as the sea of blood churned, the heir and the others also woke up one after another. They immediately retreated, gathering around Xu Qing. The aura of weakness coming from their bodies was extremely obvious.
Xu Qing's injuries were also serious. It was the same for the captain. All of them were almost at the end of their rope.
"Now, this is beyond our control."
The captain glanced at Xu Qing and spoke hoarsely.
Xu Qing nodded weakly and looked at the sea of blood in front of him.
The sea of blood moved even more violently and rumbling sounds echoed as it rapidly spun into a vortex from which a figure was walking over.
This figure didn't have a humanoid form. It was as though countless flesh wings had grown together, intertwining and spreading in all directions, forming innumerable tentacles. In their undulating movements, It resembled an irregular mass.
Only a face protruded in the center. This face lacked skin, only flesh that was constantly wriggling, exuding a horrifying aura.
Around the face, rows of eyes grow, ranging in size from large to small, in a disorderly fashion.
At that moment, the figures of Xu Qing and the others were reflected in every eye, looking extremely bizarre.
It had no arms or legs. It was like a huge bloody flesh statue that slowly rose in the vortex of blood.
The terrifying pressure coming from It distorted the entire Moon Palace, the entire Red Moon, and the entire Moon Worship Region.
The figure walking over was none other than Crimson Goddess' main body!
Xu Qing and the others' hearts trembled and intense pain attacked their minds, as if their cognition couldn't withstand the other party's figure. Uncontrollably, their perception of the god in their eyes changed.
In the next instant, in the eyes of Xu Qing and the others, the appearance of Crimson Goddess transformed into that of a woman. She had blood-red long hair and wore a red robe.
Her face no longer bore those eyeballs; only two bloody holes remained in the eye sockets.
A large amount of blood flowed and spread across Her body which was entwined by thorns.
These thorns wrapped around Her body, piercing it, and as She advanced, the thorns contracted, seemingly absorbing Her blood.
Behind her were countless blood-red spider lilies.
Every time Her footsteps landed, such a flower would bloom. And in each flower, there was an identical figure.
They were leaping and overlapping… Just like what had happened with the Red Moon earlier.
With Her appearance, a vast divine might that far surpassed Zhang Siyun's erupted outwards.
If They were to be compared, it would be like comparing a bright moon to a firefly!
"Gods can't be gazed at directly… So, in order to protect ourselves, our instincts will autonomously alter our perception, refracting the other party into a form that each of us can accept!"
The captain spoke in a low voice.
Xu Qing silently looked at Crimson Goddess who was striding over. If he didn't look at Her eyes, Crimson Goddess' face could be said to be peerlessly beautiful.
That kind of beauty didn't seem like it could be possessed by living beings. It was perfect and flawless. At the same time, it continued to change as Her footsteps landed.
It reverted to the original appearance at times and occasionally displayed a man's face contorted in pain.. Divine might also erupted in this face, as though It was being merged and assimilated.
This face belonged to the master of the land of the wicked who had been swallowed by Crimson Goddess.
The heir and the others were also silent at this moment. They closed their eyes and waited.
The captain took a deep breath and didn't move either. He was also waiting.
Xu Qing knew that they were all waiting for… Ruler Li Zihua.
It was also at this moment that the statue of Li Zihua, who was standing on the Repentance Plain and holding the Red Moon with both hands, suddenly disappeared.
His eyes slowly opened.
The instant he opened his eyes, they revealed a sense of age and profound meaning as he looked at the Moon Worship Region.
The entire Moon Worship Region lit up as his gaze landed.
The blood-red color of the sky tore apart, transforming into streaks of red clouds, and the undulations of the earth were frozen, forming uneven mountains.
The withering of all things turned into the seeds of plants. Under his gaze, each plant, every tree, and entire jungles revived.
The land of despair instantly shone with hope and vitality.
Only the Red Moon was still bright red.
Li Zihua lifted his head and looked at the Red Moon. He then let go his grip on the star.
The Red Moon didn't leave but floated in the air.
Li Zihua fell silent for a few breaths before striding forward. Every step he took landed in the void, emitting golden ripples, causing the light of the Red Moon Star to be suppressed and dim.
It was only when he walked onto the Red Moon and arrived in front of the Moon Palace that Crimson Goddess' figure completely surfaced from the blood-red vortex in the Moon Palace.
They gazed at each other.
"Long time no see."
