Chapter 6127 Crisis
“The original devil race is a scourge of the nine heavens and ten lands, a curse that will soon be extinct from this world!”
“Your annihilation will bring peace to this world. Give up your evil lives.”
“For the nine heavens and ten lands—kill them all!”
A flood of experts surged into the mountain valley, cursing non-stop. All of them were newly advanced Sovereign sprout Human Emperors—heavenly geniuses who had grown significantly stronger after their breakthroughs.
Now, they craved a bloody battle to stabilize their newfound power.
With the world’s spiritual qi growing denser, their cultivation speeds had soared. But this rapid growth brought instability. To reinforce their foundations, they needed something potent—like the Human Emperor Pill.
That pill wasn’t just a shortcut for their cultivation; it also reinforced their cultivation roots. It was a treasure powerful enough to drive them mad.
Yet, its refinement was notoriously difficult. Most alchemists who tried to make it ended up losing money. The failure rate was just too high, and even successful refinements usually only produced spirit-grade pills.
Golden pills were extremely rare, let alone top-grade golden pills.
Even Long Chen—who possessed the Pill Sovereign’s inheritance, the Earth Cauldron, and a powerful flame like Huo Linger—had taken a while before he could refine peerless-grade golden Human Emperor Pills. That alone spoke volumes of the challenge.
Alchemy contained the essence of plants, the foundation of cultivation. No cultivator could go without it.
With the Brahma Pill Valley monopolizing the medicinal pill market, medicinal pills became scarce. The Huayun Trading Company tried to compete, but its reach was limited—they couldn’t keep up with the demand.
Major powers were nurturing their own alchemists in secret, but even so, they couldn’t meet their own needs—let alone supply others.
So when the Brahma Pill Valley offered Human Emperor Pills as rewards, experts swarmed like flies to honey. But entry into this “hunt” wasn’t open to all. Every participant had to have a close connection to Brahma Pill Valley. Only with it could one access the battlefield and the rewards.
It was a brilliant scheme—two birds with one stone.
Not only could they eliminate the original devil race without dirtying their hands, but they could even make the loyal dogs feel even more grateful toward them.
For those left out, it was a warning: serve the Pill Valley, or be left behind.
High above, third Heavenstage Sovereign Lords clashed. Their battle turned the sky into a broken field of rifts and void holes. No ordinary cultivator could join that battle.
Below them raged the battlefield of Human Emperors. Human Emperors of various races were pouring into a mountain valley.
In contrast, hundreds of thousands of the original devil race’s Human Emperors were trapped in that mountain valley. At the heart of it, a towering barrier pulsed with power—an enormous “Devil” character glowing at its center.
Millions of enemies surrounded it, attacking in unison. With every assault, the light of the Devil character dimmed.
Inside the barrier stood a lone woman, her eyes shut in concentration, hands locked in trembling seals. Her face was pale, and her robes were soaked with sweat.
On her forehead, a golden Devil rune pulsed with the same rhythm as the Devil character on the barrier.
Suddenly—
Pu!
She coughed blood. Scarlet color stained the front of her robes like blooming flowers. Her body swayed.
“Sacred daughter!” the original devil race’s experts cried out.
“Don’t get distracted! Keep preserving. Until the very last moment, you cannot give up!” shouted Yue Xiaoqian.
Yue Xiaoqian had used her core energy to summon this barrier, which concentrated the power of these hundreds of thousands of disciples. For the period of an incense stick burning, she had been blocking the attacks of these experts.
This barrier was so strong that even third Heavenstage Sovereign Lords would have difficulty breaking it. However, their opponents were all elites, and with so many of them attacking, it wouldn’t be able to last long.
Yue Xiaoqian was already at her limit, burning through her core and soul to maintain the formation.
But the cracks were growing.
“You should never have existed in this world. There’s no need to struggle. No one can save you.”
“Withdraw the barrier and let us cut off your heads. That way, your death won’t be as painful.”
“Don’t kill them all. Their sacred daughter is truly beautiful, so using her head to exchange for a Human Emperor Pill is a waste. I’ll take her as my bed warmer, haha…”
Their vulgarities were aimed to provoke and unsettle the hearts of those in the barrier. If even one person wavered, the barrier would collapse faster.
“You bastards! If we die, no one will be able to hold back the devils beyond this world! The nine heavens will fall, and you’ll be the first to be devoured!” one devil race expert roared in defiance.
“Hahaha, worry about yourselves!” came the mocking reply.
“Enough nonsense—attack harder!” barked a massive giant.
This giant possessed an incredibly powerful aura, dozens of times stronger than that of an ordinary Sovereign sprout. His Blood Qi was also astonishing.
He was clearly one of the commanders.
Dozens of commanders like him stood watching from a distance. They weren’t attacking, saving their strength for when the barrier broke. That would be the real bloodbath—the battle to claim more heads.
They were the elites of elites. With them locking down the surroundings, not even a fly could escape.
“It’s close to shattering,” said a winged expert, his sharp gaze locked on the battlefield.
His wings were subtly quivering. Once the barrier broke, he would rely on his speed to immediately get the first kills.
Just then, Yue Xiaoqian coughed up even more blood. She had reached her limit.
“Sacred daughter, stop! Let’s just fight them to the death! We’ll drag them down with us!” shouted an original devil expert.
He feared that if she used up all her energy, she’d be defenseless if captured. In that case, her ending would truly be unimaginably tragic.
“Hold on… just… a little longer…” Yue Xiaoqian’s voice trembled, but her eyes stayed shut. Her fingers shook with effort.
Even if she overdrafted her energy, she didn’t care.
She felt Long Chen.
He was coming.
She just had to hold out until he arrived.
Countless attacks struck the barrier, causing it to shudder. That was a sign that the barrier was on the verge of breaking.
The commanders outside completed their preparations, igniting their Sovereign qi.
BOOM!
Finally, the barrier shattered, and countless spatial fragments flew through the air. At this sight, the original devil race’s experts gritted their teeth, clenching their weapons in sweaty palms.
“Kill!”
Countless experts charged at the original devil race’s experts.
But Yue Xiaoqian smiled.
BOOM!
A bronze cauldron appeared in the air, unleashing waves of divine light that protected Yue Xiaoqian and the rest of the original devil race’s experts.
