You, a druid, go to practice Taoism?.

"You little devils!"

"Enjoy the feast of self-destruction!"

For a formation master, there is nothing more exciting than seeing their research efforts shine, especially in a world war of this magnitude, where the life and death of their entire homeland are at stake!
As the mushroom-shaped spiritual clouds rose, the entire central ancient battlefield was plunged into a tremendous tremor that shook the heavens and the earth.

Amidst the countless torrents of demons, countless brilliant lights erupted one after another in a short period of time.

In the light filled with destructive power, vast torrents of demons were instantly swallowed up, and their incomparably powerful demonic bodies were rapidly broken through under this power...

The demons at the center, regardless of their strength, were basically blasted into dust.

Even a king among those in a realm suffered severe injuries and a sharp drop in combat power under such overwhelming force; the weaker demons were completely wiped out, their bodies vanished without a trace...

The demons on the slightly more peripheral edges faced less pressure, but they appeared far more wretched. With only mangled bodies and limbs remaining, they could barely survive the destructive spiritual explosions. Their superior vitality could only prolong their suffering.
In an instant, wails filled the land, and the shrill screams shook the heavens!
The originally unstoppable torrent of demons was thus forcibly cleared out in large numbers, and its fierce momentum was immediately interrupted!
Looking at this dazzling spectacle of death, the array masters' eyes flashed with boundless pride and self-satisfaction, their eyes shining like jewels.

Nothing is more satisfying than witnessing the fruits of your labor play such a brilliant and important role at such a crucial moment.

In this way, these formation masters, having thrown themselves into the battlefield and witnessed this scene firsthand, have no regrets in this life! The sense of meaning and the thrill are off the charts!
Because talisman masters and weapon refiners who remain at the Starsea Headquarters due to their important production role, array masters are among the few skill-based professions that must enter the battlefield.

Setting up an array is too difficult. A powerful array can only be operated by an array master, unlike talismans and magical artifacts, which can be operated and detonated with the corresponding magic seals.

But it was precisely because of this that they were able to witness such a breathtaking scene firsthand, perhaps even the pinnacle of their emotions for the rest of their lives, as powerful and dazzling as those self-destructing formations...

However, compared to the array master's expected exhilaration and satisfaction at having his hard work put to use, the people from other star-sea worlds were completely stunned!

They knew that many formations and weapons were deployed on the battlefield, and they also knew that these formations would play a crucial role in the war.
But this is way too exaggerated!

This terrifying power exceeded everyone's expectations.

"this?"

"How can the power of this formation be so terrifying? It's too exaggerated!"

"Cow!"

"Outrageous! Extremely outrageous!"

A series of exclamations of surprise rang out.

The previously heavy atmosphere eased considerably at this moment. As wave after wave of demons were blown up, emitting one shrill scream after another, the gloom in everyone's hearts dissipated, and they gained more confidence in the upcoming war!

Although they had already resolved to fight to the death, seeing the demon army that outnumbered them in both aura and numbers, it would be a lie to say it had no impact...

But now, with each self-destruction and the fall of the enemy, everyone sees more hope in their hearts!

It is precisely because of this hope that the desire to kill the enemy and win becomes stronger and stronger. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, they can unleash even greater potential and fighting power!
This explosion completely killed more than 10% of the demons!
In addition, a significant number of demons suffered heavy losses and lost their fighting ability in the short term!
An earth-shattering explosion!
On the other hand, the commanders of the demon race who still retained their consciousness and autonomy were also shocked by this scene.

They have invaded many cultivation worlds, including those with even greater power, but this scene has completely shattered their understanding.

Is this the kind of world that can unleash such power?
They had seen many powerful talismans, formations, and magical artifacts, and were well aware of their terrifying destructive power, especially formations, which could cause massive casualties if they could not be broken through in a short time.

Therefore, after accumulating a large number of demonic lives, they had already figured out a way to use their powerful bodies and terrifying numbers to disperse damage and quickly break the formation. As long as the bearing capacity exceeds the formation's limit, the formation will completely collapse.

When we first charged into the Star Sea World, that was indeed the case at the beginning. After changing the formation, a large number of formations were quickly broken through, and many of the formation traps that rose up later also had limited damage to the high density of demons.

But they didn't expect it to be a trap!
A trap was set to lure the demons together, and then instantly detonate countless attacks with extreme destructive power.
Within the bloodline network that connects the demons, incredible voices resounded.

"How can the human race have so many formations?"

"Moreover, the proportion of self-destruct formations is too high! And their power is ridiculously strong."

"How could a world of this strength possibly produce arrays and talismanic weapons of this scale?"

The performance of the Star Sea World truly refreshed their understanding.

How exactly did they manage to produce so many powerful weapons?

This world is so bizarre!

The decisive battle has only just begun, and the proportion of demons who have died and those who have lost their fighting ability has already reached more than 20%!

The human race hasn't lost a single person, but the demon race has suffered nearly a quarter of its losses!

This is just the beginning.
Fortunately, what reassured the demon commanders was that after that large-scale explosion, there were no more large-scale self-destruct weapon explosions, and the minor casualties caused by some scattered array attacks were not a concern to them.

However, they dared not allow the demon army to remain in such a dense formation any longer. Through the military formation magic network, they ordered all demons to remain relatively dispersed, so as to encircle and annihilate the human race in the Star Sea World.

The overall number and combat power of the demon race are still far superior to those of the Star Sea World. As long as they are not massacred on a large scale like before, victory will still belong to the demon realm.

Under the command of the demon commander, all the demons scattered like locusts and surrounded the human race in the Star Sea World!

Because these demons were in a special state of bloodline frenzy, their combat state was not affected by the large number of demons that died, and their combat power remained ferocious and fierce!
"Brothers, the time for a bloody battle has come!" Facing the terrifying demon army that blotted out the sky and surrounded them, the Star Sea World side also put on a state of full combat readiness.

The effects of the self-destruct formation and the self-destructing talisman artifacts were indeed astonishing, almost equivalent to the number of demons killed in the Star Sea World!
Industrialization and concentrating all resources on manufacturing and producing weapons have indeed yielded astonishing results, but that's where it ends. The Starsea world no longer has the extra materials or time to produce more weapons.
Moreover, the self-destruct weapon caused the death and loss of combat ability of nearly a quarter of the demons. This amazing effect was only possible because the demons had gathered in such a dense formation. The array masters of the Star Sea World seized the opportunity immediately, otherwise the effect would have been greatly reduced.

However, after the initial great victory, a huge wave of pressure surged in again!

Because the number of demons is still more than three times that of the Star Sea World!
Moreover, their overall physical strength and combat power are also higher!

It's like one person has to fight against more than three opponents, and the opponents are even stronger!

So what follows is still a difficult battle with an uncertain outcome.
Moreover, with most of their self-destruct weapons and talismans already used up, there was no other choice but to fight to the death. The battlefield ahead would be littered with corpses.
Soon, as the killing orders were issued by both sides, the armies of the Star Sea World and the Demon Realm clashed violently!
In an instant, blood, severed limbs, and corpses rained down from the sky!

The most brutal killings also officially began at this moment, and the weak might not survive three breaths in such a war.

Even the most brilliant and talented genius can be slaughtered by an enemy ten times their number, without even the chance to resist.
Because the combat power comparison is different at each level of the battlefield, the combat status after the initial self-destruct formation is also very different.

Every battlefield was extremely fierce, with some battlefields even allowing for a decisive advantage, while others resulted in one-sided defeats.

However, no matter what the circumstances, victory in war can never occur on the battlefield at the Qi Refining level.
Because this was a battlefield destined for sacrifice from the very beginning.
Although the largest number of geniuses and the strongest combat power in the Star Sea World are Qi Refining level cultivators, who are basically geniuses born and nurtured after the merger of the Nine Domains of the Star Sea, it is still possible to win if all these people are put into the battlefield.

However, no matter what, the higher-ups of the Star Sea World would never risk the lives of these most outstanding young talents. Therefore, the Qi Refining level battlefield recruits were all cultivators hired with rewards and promises of offspring cultivation, and they were equipped with a huge number of talismans!

Qi Refining level talismans are the easiest to make. With the recent surge in talisman-making talent cultivated in the Star Sea World, the quantity of talismans at this level is unimaginable. Therefore, every Qi Refining level cultivator carries a storage bag full of talismans onto the battlefield.
However, although there are many talismans in the Star Sea World, there are even more demons at the Qi Refining level, which can be described as almost endless, resulting in an enormous consumption of talismans.

Although the Star Sea World Qi Refining level battlefield achieved many victories in the early stages of the battle, almost all of them came at the cost of depleting its talismans.

Therefore, in this final battleground, these ordinary Qi Refining cultivators and elders, whose strength was already low, no longer had much strength left to resist.
Even among them, there weren't many formation mages, making it impossible to form a large-scale formation self-destruction like on other battlefields.
"Old Li, Old Wang, if nothing unexpected happens, we're about to die."

An elderly man with gray hair and wrinkles etched on his face spoke with mixed feelings.

Beside him were four other elderly men, all from Qianji Market in Yangxing Domain under the Nine Domains of the Star Sea. They had gathered together to participate in this war in order to find a way out for their descendants.

Looking at the endless horde of demons ahead, their ferocious claws and fangs, and the few remaining talismans on his body, he knew that his life had begun its countdown and he didn't have much time left.

"There's no such thing as an accident, we're just about to die!"

Another old man rolled his eyes at the person who spoke, his voice surprisingly relaxed.

"Yeah, I just didn't expect to die so soon. I thought we could drink and eat like this for a few more years!"

In recent years, I've earned quite a few spirit stones, enough to drink spirit wine regularly.

Most importantly, they didn't have to worry about the calamities. Having grown accustomed to living in constant fear, they felt as if these past few years had been a dream.

"Can't we eat it now?"

An old man suddenly took out several jugs of spirit fruit wine from his storage bag, giving one jug to each of the people around him, and said:
Let's have one last meal together, because we won't be able to eat like this again!

The others didn't say anything either, they just picked up the wine jugs and started pouring.

Murmur
Before long, the bottles of wine were empty.

The aroma of the wine exploded in their bodies in the blink of an eye, and the effects of the alcohol immediately flushed their faces and intoxicated them.

“Ah, so cool!”

There's nothing happier than having a drink before you die.

"We used to have such wretched lives, constantly at risk of being killed by demonic cultivators. It's already quite good that we've been able to live comfortably for the past few years!"

"Yes, now our only hope is that our brat will live up to expectations and not waste the path this old man paved with his life."

"How can you call it a waste? The Star Emperor was able to defeat that great black dragon, and we deserve some credit for that too!"

"That's right. If our world ultimately triumphs, our descendants might receive some blessings. Our achievements will be engraved on a monument."

The group chatted amongst themselves, their faces flushed even more, showing no trace of the fear and pallor one would expect when facing death.

Instead, all they revealed was a nostalgia for that past era and a glimmer of hope for the future, even though that future did not belong to them.

At this moment, they seemed to no longer be insignificant Qi Refining cultivators, but an indispensable part of a world-class war, and their names would be inscribed on the monument.

"Old buddies, before you run out of talismans, don't forget to save one for yourself. I don't want to leave my corpse for these guys to eat."

As the sound faded, the terrifying roars of the demons quickly approached from afar.
Soon, all that remained in sight were the grotesque fangs and faces.

Powerful talisman lights immediately erupted, and amidst the crisscrossing sword energy and flames, one ferocious demon after another was reduced to charred remains.

As the last fire talisman lit up, an old man with a ruddy face, shouting something, and a ferocious demon were simultaneously reduced to ashes.
Thus, the Qi Refining level battlefield, the Star Sea World, is completely annihilated! (End of Chapter)
