Everyone holds the Ten Thousand Souls Banner? In our great nation of Yanhuang, everyone is a demon c

At this moment, heaven and earth seemed to stand still.

Beneath the vast heavens, wind and thunder clashed, the sun and moon lost their luster, and spiritual energy surged and churned in the air, like an awakening after eons of silence. On the primordial continent, countless human cultivators looked up, their eyes no longer filled with confusion or fear, but with a burning fighting spirit—the will of the victor, ignited completely. "This moment is the moment when our human race truly awakens."

Standing atop the Nine Desolations Peak, Chen Xiu's gaze was like a torch, and his voice was like thunder, echoing endlessly throughout the heavens and earth.

He wore a dark gold battle robe, with the "Cang Sheng Tian Ce Tu" floating behind him. It was a cultivation path map of all living beings that he had drawn by hand. Every spiritual vein, every acupoint, and every meridian was connected to the mind and spirit of all cultivators in the world.

Below, amidst the mountain peaks and valleys, forests and deserts, countless cultivators wielded swords, held array flags, or sat cross-legged, channeling their inner energy. Each of them radiated their own unique spiritual light. At this moment, they were no longer solitary individuals, but rather a united force of their race, united by a common goal.

"Success is not a gift from God, but something we earn ourselves."

Not long ago, the world underwent a dramatic change—the rules loosened, spiritual energy surged, and the demon, monster, and underworld races seized the opportunity to invade, attempting to once again trample on human territory. Faced with this sudden calamity, human cultivators from all corners of the prehistoric world finally put aside their sectarian differences and began to gather.

The Eastern Continent Sword Sect dispatched nine sword saints to form the "Nine Swords Sky-Splitting Formation";
The Xiling Body Refining Sect released a golden-bodied warrior whose physical body directly confronted a fifth-tier demon king.

The Southern Wilderness Poison Sect used spiritual poison to condense an array, setting up the "Hundred Breaths Soul Sealing Array";
The Northern Mystic Academy used ancient scrolls to decipher the forbidden patterns of heaven and earth, initiating a new revolution in the laws of nature.

All of this was due to the emergence of "an opportunity"—the Heavenly Mandate Monument cracked open, revealing the door to success.

It was a divine monument that had slumbered for millennia, capable only of being activated when the will of humanity reached its zenith. Now, it had come into being, casting a ray of light into the sea of ​​consciousness of everyone, whispering its words:

"If you wish to ascend to the pinnacle of the Heavenly Dao, you must prove yourself successful."

This information ignited everyone's fighting spirit. At that moment, everyone understood that success was no longer a vague and distant legend, but a tangible reality right before their eyes.

Fairy Qingli attained enlightenment in the Abyss of White Bones, using the power of spiritual frost to annihilate countless corpses and attain the "Nine Tribulations of the Ice Heart." She said, "Success means never looking back."

General Zhu Yan fought alone in the Demon Realm Mountains for three days, using his physical body to withstand 100,000 demon soldiers, remaining unextinguished despite the flames. He said, "Success is for those who are waiting for me to come home."

Yunze Daoist deduced a thousand formations in the Floating Spirit Heavenly Book, and finally, in accordance with the will of Heaven and Earth, set up the "Triple Myriad Spirits Formation" to resist the King of the Underworld. He said, "Success is doing what one knows to be impossible."

Even ordinary cultivators who initially had no hope for the future have now ignited their own destiny stars. Because they know that as long as they follow the direction drawn by Chen Xiu, as long as they firmly embark on this path to success, they will truly usher in their own turning point in destiny.

Suddenly, the Heavenly Strategy Map of All Living Beings in Chen Xiu's hand shone brightly, unfurling with a roar and revealing eight core spiritual paths. Each spiritual path represented a combat technique—

Sword Intent Combat Technique: The main edge is unparalleled in sharpness.

Formation Strategy: Control the game to win.

Body-cultivation combat tactics: primarily focused on breaking through enemy defenses.

Rune-based combat strategy: Focus on attacking the enemy's mind and spirit.

Poison Spirit Battle Strategy: Focus on speed to counter enemy's vitality.

Spirit Beast Battle Strategy: Primarily used for breaking formations and large-scale battles.

Spiritual Combat Technique: Primarily uses illusions to confuse the enemy.

Dao Yin Battle Technique: Primarily used to intimidate and deter all souls.

Everyone automatically categorized themselves and consciously drew upon their spirits and intentions to form battle groups. This was no longer an ordinary battle, but a ritual of "awakening the will of the entire human race."

Chen Xiu roared to the sky: "Who is willing to fight alongside me and achieve their own path?"

Countless people looked up to the sky and responded: "I do!"

"Success is no longer the pursuit of a certain state; success is recognizing one's own path and still moving forward without hesitation."

At that moment, it seemed as if a certain light illuminated the depths of everyone's soul. In the hearts of countless cultivators, their own images emerged—the hopes of their parents, the light of their people, the eyes of their loved ones, the seal of their vows… All of this formed a shared spiritual vision: "We will fight for the path of humanity!"

This is exactly what Chen Xiu wanted to see—success would no longer be his own candlelight, but a raging fire ignited by the collective efforts of many.

At this moment, the Xuanming Demon Lord led the army of a hundred races to break through the Xiling defense line and head straight for the heart of Zhongzhou, attempting to destroy the core of the human race in one battle.

"The time has come," Chen Xiu murmured to himself.

With a flick of his sleeve, the Celestial Strategy Chart of All Living Beings merged with the rules of heaven and earth, combining the "spiritual veins and terrain" with the "spiritual will and soul," transforming into the "Myriad Paths Formation Chart." He alone became the core carrier of the spiritual array, drawing all the arrays together to create the first "Human Race Combined Attack Array" in the history of the primordial world!
Ten thousand rays of spiritual light soared into the sky, enveloping the heavens.

Chen Xiu stood with his hands behind his back, his voice echoing throughout the eight directions:
"At this moment,
Every human cultivator,
They are all successful in their own way.

After this battle, we will no longer be humble.
We will be remembered for eternity, writing our own glorious chapter! The world is clear and the dust has settled.

The aura of success, like sweet dew, blanketed the earth. Those human cultivators who had once struggled in arduous training now possessed resolute expressions and walked with unwavering steps. They were no longer merely followers, but true pioneers.

Some people successfully refined their bodies and entered the realm of Martial God;
Someone's spiritual awareness erupted, shattering the void;
Some have grasped the secrets of the formation and glimpsed the origin of creation;

Some children even attained enlightenment by watching the battle and achieved foundation building in seven days!
They knew that this was not only the era of Chen Xiu, but also the era of every human cultivator who believed in the path to success.

Epilogue: The Horn of Success
"Success is not just a slogan; it is choosing to face pain and also choosing to embrace glory."

—These were Chen Xiu's last words to his entire clan after the war. He did not stop, but set off again, venturing to even more distant mountain peaks, starry skies, and beyond…

Behind him are countless successful people, stretching endlessly like a tide rushing toward their respective futures.

The world was silent, the wind blew and dust rose. Since the end of that earth-shattering battle, the destiny of the primordial land had been reshaped once more, and all things had awakened again. At this moment, for all the human cultivators who stepped onto the battlefield, it was the "most opportune time for success"—at this moment, everyone turned their deepest desire for victory into action, resolutely marching towards their respective peaks.

Night had not yet fallen, yet the world was already in turmoil. Embers from the Southern Wilderness volcanic eruption still swirled in the air, ice crystals on the Western Wilderness's ice peaks glittered in the moonlight, black mist permeated the Northern Wilderness's Netherworld Valley, the void surged in the Demon Realm's abyss, holy light flowed slowly through the celestial palace's clouds, and the roars of beasts from the Nine Nether Demon Peak echoed like ancient sounds. Everywhere proclaimed: "The true beginning is at this very moment!"

Countless cultivators slowly made their way onto the stage, some focused in meditation, some gazing into the distance, and some closing their eyes to rest. Each of them silently chanted in their hearts: "This is the perfect opportunity; my success is in my own hands!"

2. Chen Xiu's congratulations

On the Heavenly Desolate Sacred Platform, Chen Xiu held the "Twin Wheels of Life and Death" halberd, its battle flags fluttering high above. He looked down at the people who had sworn their oaths, his gaze deep and gratified, and said:
"Today's battle is a battle for myself."

Each of you has found your own 'most correct path to success'.
Now, all we need to do is fight to the death without hesitation!
I won't stop you, because this is the right choice!

His voice seemed to emanate from ancient stars, echoing across vast distances. The crowd responded in unison, vowing to forge their own human legend.

At this moment, armor clanged, magical artifacts gleamed, and flames, ice crystals, shadows, holy light, nothingness, beast tides, and lightning alternated and bloomed on the seven main battlefields. Every small battle contained a soul with unwavering faith, putting the "most correct and successful plan" into practice in their own way.

1. Southern Wilderness Fire Dance
Clad in crimson armor, Zhu Yan set up the "Earth-Breaking Array" atop the Southern Wilderness volcano. He roared to the heavens, merging his ambition with the true essence of the earth's veins. With a strike of his staff, magma surged into a wall of fire dozens of feet high, then shattered, transforming into rolling waves of fire that surged towards the enemy vanguard. Amidst the flames, he cut through the thorns and brambles, leaving a trail of blood and ashes in his wake.

His battle cry, like the crashing of mountains, echoed through every towering volcanic canyon:

"Fire and Earth Resonate, Unrivaled in the Southern Wilderness!"

Thousands of iron cavalry followed closely behind, using flames as shields and blazing spears to completely flatten the remaining defensive line outside the wall of fire. Zhu Yan's heart stirred slightly: this was the most correct plan he had long believed in—to clear the way with flames, to use the earth's veins as shields, and to break through all difficulties!

2. Western Wilderness Frozen Thunder
At the summit of the icy peaks of the Western Wilderness, Qing Li unleashed the "Heart-Piercing Frost Technique." Standing atop a towering glacier, she gathered the chill of the stars and summoned thunder to descend upon the world. Ice clouds condensed, lightning flashed, and countless ice spears pierced the sky. Those struck were utterly destroyed by the combined power of ice and lightning, their limbs stiffening and their minds shattered.

With the help of the Sword Immortal Ling Ting, his longsword drew lightning as its beam, and with a move called "Thunder Heart Union," he slashed down at the center of the ice spear, creating a gap hundreds of feet long, which completely demoralized the enemy.

Qingli smiled and looked up, murmuring to herself:
"Coldness and thunder, both are what my heart desires; my success begins with this one strike!"

Her voice seemed to freeze the night sky, yet it evoked boundless courage in everyone's hearts.

3. Assassination in the Northern Wilderness
The Shadow Blade moved with unparalleled speed, blending seamlessly into the night. He wielded a black blade, moving with the swiftness of tentacles, almost invisible. Countless shadow assassins, working in perfect unison, each strike aimed precisely at the enemy's weakest point.

The Holy Son of Dawn cast a "Holy Light Protection" spell high in the sky, creating a safe passage for the assault team. Meanwhile, the team used the "Light and Dark Combo Slash" to ruthlessly slaughter enemies under the light barrier, utterly destroying the enemy's rear command system.

The demon stomped its foot and let out a long howl:

"Shadow determines life and death; where light and shadow intersect, that is the true battlefield of our race!"

His hidden blade severed the heads of several opponents, and his comrades cheered in unison, knowing that they were on the right path to victory.

4. Heavenly Palace Holy Light
The Holy Son of Dawn and all the saints gathered in the clouds of the Heavenly Palace, waving their holy staffs and setting up the "Ninefold Holy Light Array." The holy light was like a vast ocean, nourishing silently, yet capable of purifying all evil, blood rain, and darkness.

Every heavenly soldier believed in this formation and held firm in their hearts:

"Holy light is our banner, protecting all nations of our Great Wilderness!"

As they brandished their magical weapons, holy light crisscrossed, illuminating every blind spot on the battlefield, inspiring the people of the human race and boosting their confidence.

5. Demon Realm Void Beasts
The Chaos Venerable and the Demon Emperor joined forces, drawing upon the power of nothingness and resonating with the souls of all beasts to unleash the "Void Beast Soul-Devouring Array." Reality and illusion intertwined, a raging demonic tide devoured any will that dared to challenge it. The remaining enemy forces faced not simple slaughter, but the tearing apart of their souls.

The Soul Eater laughed maniacally, and within the crimson light barrier, numerous demonic soldiers roared in unison:
"The void devours, all beasts roar, we are the wildest beings in the primordial world!"

Their wildness and unbridled nature are the most outrageous interpretation of the rules of the game. (End of Chapter)
