After millions of years in the library, I became an Immortal Emperor.

The emergence of a sage among the human race brought a glimmer of hope to the desolate lands of humanity for the first time, whether in Qingzhou, Xuzhou, or other continents.

At least their sacrifice was worthwhile; the flame of humanity will not be extinguished.

The three of them thought of that legendary saint, their faces filled with determination.

They won't investigate whether the rumor is true or not, nor can they afford the blow of the rumor being false; they'll just accept their own belief.

However, they also understood that even if the human race had a saint, he had only just ascended to sainthood and was still inferior to the ancestral saints of the three major barbarian clans.

The sages still need time, and they do not blame the sages for not establishing themselves in the halls of the nine provinces of humanity and leading humanity to face the myriad races of the Xuanhuang Great World.

I only hope that their sacrifice will buy the saint more time.

The rain quietly stopped.

Outside the cave, five barbarians stared solemnly at the corpse on the ground.

"Prince Lamo is dead."

Before the headless corpse, a barbarian exuded a terrifying killing intent, and even the wind around him stopped flowing.

Batu, captain of the Barbarian White Wolf Squad, is at the first level of the Divine Power Realm!

"A bunch of useless people, don't they know that His Highness Lamo's safety should be the top priority? Why didn't they inform us in advance?"

"Another barbarian said, his face looking ugly."

"Damn it!"

The barbarians looked grim. The death of a prince of the White Wolf royal family had affected not only the humans here, but also them.

"The Totem Hall in the White Wolf Royal City contains the soul flames of every royal prince, and they should already know about Prince Lamo's death."

"We must capture the murderer before the royal envoy arrives."

Batu said in a deep voice, as if it came from the very marrow of his bones.

Even though Prince Lamo is not highly regarded by the White Wolf royal family, he still represents the face of the White Wolf royal family and cannot possibly die here so easily.

Even the weakest royal envoy is at the Creation Realm.

He's here to settle scores.

The purge targeted not only humans, but also all of them.

They all bear responsibility, regardless of the cause of Prince Lamo's death.

"They say they're hunting down a human genius, young, with a cultivation level of the first stage of the Divine Platform Realm, distinguished by a tree branch hanging from his waist."

This was a message sent to them by the barbarian squad that had previously protected Prince Lamo.

That was also the only information they knew about the killer.

"First level of the Divine Platform Realm!"

The expressions of the several barbarians all hardened.

A mere first-level Divine Platform Realm cultivator actually killed an entire barbarian squad, whose captain was a fifth-level Divine Platform Realm cultivator.

"Issue the order: any barbarian squads in Cangling Plains that discover a human with this characteristic should report it immediately."

"At all costs... stall him."

At the same time, all the barbarian squads in this area received orders, and the White Wolf Squad held the position of commander among the barbarians of Cangling Plain.

"Is it just a matter of stalling?"

Not long after, at the edge of a swamp, five barbarians looked at four people not far away, their brows furrowing slightly.

"kill!"

The five barbarians launched a fierce attack.

Qin Ming pointed his finger, and an invisible sword beam slashed out, cutting down a whole patch of reeds, including five barbarian tribesmen.

"Four hundred and thirty-one."

Qin Ming said calmly and continued walking forward.

The three people behind them looked at the barbarian's corpse and continued to follow.

"Qin Ming, I have a bad feeling. We've encountered too many barbarians, it's like they came specifically to find us."

"We may have been exposed."

Bai Yun said, and the other two nodded as well. All three of them had solemn expressions on their faces.

Every human still in Cangyuan Ridge could feel the changes on this battlefield. These barbarians seemed to be searching for something, appearing more frequently and killing more intensely.

There was fighting everywhere, and it was gradually evolving into a large-scale war.

The high command of the Southern Border garrison also noticed this, and more attention was turned to this place called Cangyuan Ridge, and more troops were deployed there.

"No matter the reason, fight!"

In Zhennan City, a city of the human race, in front of the sand table, Yuwen Ba, the commander-in-chief of the Southern Border of the Great Tang Dynasty, planted a flag at the location of Cangyuan Ridge and said solemnly.

Those below were all shocked, and their eyes gleamed with fighting spirit.

In a spot further back, a young man in white armor watched this scene, momentarily dazed, then clenched his fist and took a step forward.

"Yuwen Hua, volunteer for battle!"

He said that many eyes in the camp were on him.

Yuwen Hua is the son of Yuwen Ba, the commander of the human army on the border. He was born into the Yuwen family of Shengjing and was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.

Outside Zhennan City, it was a battlefield like a meat grinder, a place where nine out of ten would die and one in ten would survive. No one could guarantee that they would live.

Is he going?

Their gaze then fell upon Yuwen Ba.

Yuwen Ba, the patriarch of the Yuwen family, is a peak Celestial Realm expert and the backbone of the entire Southern Army.

Yuwen Ba looked at Yuwen Hua, his brows furrowing slightly.

Are you sure?

he asks.

Yuwen Hua looked up, his face resolute.

"Yes."

Why?

"I want to be like you, a bulwark of the Tang Dynasty, to defend and expand the territory of the human race, to achieve great deeds, to leave my name in history, and to marry the woman I love."

Yuwen Hua said, the image of the woman playing the zither in the courtyard flashing through his mind. She must have looked down on a young nobleman who only knew how to talk big.

Yuwen Ba looked at him, and the entire camp fell into a brief silence.

Yoshihisa

"allow!"

He said nothing more, and no one knew what he was thinking. Yuwen Hua knelt down before Yuwen Ba, bowed deeply, and then left.

"Father, I've grown up."

His words still echoed in the tent when Yuwen Ba looked at the person beside him.

"Find out who this woman he's talking about is, all her information, her background, and everyone connected to her. I want to make sure I don't miss a single one."

"Yes."

……

The Cangyuan Ridge was gradually becoming the main battlefield, with the human race deploying more troops, as did the barbarian race, and a layer of blood mist lingered over the entire Cangyuan Ridge.

At the edge of a cliff, Bai Yun and his two companions looked at Qin Ming with shock on their faces.

Just now, Qin Ming single-handedly wiped out an army of over a hundred barbarians.

The area around the cliff was littered with corpses.

"Qin Ming, we have to go. These barbarians are clearly coming for us. They must know about the barbarian prince's death."

Bai Yun said.

No sooner had the words fallen than more barbarians came from the distant land, numbering in the hundreds at a glance, with even more behind them; barbarians were everywhere.

This small cliff has become an isolated island.

"It's over."

Bai Xun, who was behind him, said this with a trembling expression on his face.

They could easily see that the barbarians already knew they were the murderers of the barbarian prince, and this was a targeted ambush.

The blazing sun, like blood, reflected on that figure. He stood atop the precipice, facing the encirclement from all sides, and smiled.

"It's finally here."

He gently stroked the branch at his waist, as if reminiscing about something.

A piece of paper peeked out from his lapel, and an incomprehensible artistic conception lingered throughout the cliff.
