Almost at the same time, the other players also began clashing fiercely with the demon forces!
"Heh, this useless human… holding a kitchen knife? So you're a cook? Tsk tsk… how could you possibly be a match for this Demon Venerable?" one Demon Venerable sneered as he casually reached out, intending to crush the guy in front of him to death.
"You looking down on cooks?" Master Chef Little Tip of Tongue smiled.
"Six Paths Tip of Tongue!!!"
With a spin, Master Chef Little Tip of Tongue transformed into Six Paths form!
"BOOM!"
The Divine Weapon Ever Changing Chef's Knife in his hand shone brilliantly.
Two Intent Auras wrapped around it, followed by the power of Heavenly Fire, combined with the weapon's own terrifying sharpness!
"Martial Intent—King's Feast!"
"Chef Intent—Cooking of All Things!"
The moment Master Chef Little Tip of Tongue opened his eyes—
The Demon Venerable in front of him was no longer a Demon Venerable.
It was simply an ingredient.
"SWISH SWISH!"
They passed each other in an instant.
The Demon Venerable's pupils suddenly shrank.
"This… is… im… possi… ble…"
He rasped his final words.
His body shattered into countless pieces and was immediately consumed by blazing Heavenly Fire.
"That's a pretty big demon core."
Master Chef Little Tip of Tongue squeezed the demon core in his hand and couldn't help praising it.
After the very first clash, the Demon Venerables realized they had suffered a massive loss.
Their power was suppressed to less than half, while the strength of these opponents far exceeded their expectations!
Almost every Demon Venerable was instantly killed before they could even activate their demonic bloodline powers!
It seemed the disciples of Yanhuang Sect already knew they would try to summon the power of primordial demons at death.
So every attack was delivered in one uninterrupted combo, giving them absolutely no time to react!
"Careful! There's something on the ground!"
"Damn it, what kind of power is this?!"
"Our strength is being restricted inside this area!"
The surviving Demon Venerables quickly fell into a disadvantage.
Looking down, they finally noticed—
The entire camp was covered by a massive formation!
It was the Sixth-Grade Formation personally set up by He Yiming, perfectly suppressing the demonic energy of invading demons!
Under the suppression of the formation, the Demon Venerables could only unleash half their strength.
Facing the veteran players from the First Beta and Second Beta tests under these conditions was basically a complete collapse.
"This one's mine! Stop stealing my kill!"
"Hahaha! These mobs are so damn stupid—just lining up to die wave after wave!"
"I'm dying of laughter. The scene looked huge, but the monsters' IQ is way too low. This is basically free kills!"
The remaining elite demons who survived the earlier Heaven-Flipping Seals were soon completely slaughtered by the other players.
Some were stepped to death by Gundams.
Some were burned alive by Heavenly Fire.
Others were simply blown apart.
The methods of death were extremely diverse.
In less than half an incense stick of time—
The demon vanguard army, including Mo He with fifty-eight demon marks, was completely annihilated!
"Well done."
He Yiming had been quietly observing everything from the shadows and couldn't help praising them.
At that moment—
As the last Lost Era survivor was escorted into the camp by players, He Yiming suddenly realized something with delight.
One million Lost Era survivors had been successfully rescued!
"These Lost Era survivors… a small portion are humans, but most are other races… yet the system identifies them as the ancestors of the beast race…"
"Could it be that the coordinates Mu Xueying mentioned are actually the location of the future Beast Realm?"
He Yiming pondered.
From the current situation, that guess was likely the truth.
The one million survivors had been gathered.
But the mission was not complete.
That meant He Yiming still had to launch a super teleportation to send all one million survivors to a safe location—the place suspected to be the future Beast Realm!
"For teleportation across such an enormous distance, the first step is protecting them from being torn apart by spatial power."
He Yiming's expression turned serious.
Originally, he had planned to use Wood Style to construct a small fortress.
But just as he was about to act—
The five-colored lotus beneath his Nascent Soul inside his body suddenly…
Bloomed.
An indescribable sensation flowed through his entire body.
He slowly raised his hand and pointed toward the one million Lost Era survivors.
"Five-Fold Emperor Lotus!!!"
As He Yiming murmured those words—
"BOOM!!!"
A gigantic five-colored lotus, over 100,000 meters wide, suddenly appeared!
Like a warm and massive shelter, it enveloped all one million survivors within it!
Five-colored radiance flowed gently across the lotus, covering every survivor and forming an incredibly powerful protective barrier that would prevent them from being torn apart by the spatial distortion during teleportation.
Casting such an enormous lotus naturally exhausted He Yiming's Five-Fold Emperor Lotus Intent.
When he inspected his body, he was slightly surprised.
The blooming lotus beneath his Nascent Soul had disappeared, leaving only the lotus leaves and seedpod.
However—
A tiny bud had begun forming again, waiting for its next bloom.
"This Five-Fold Emperor Lotus Intent is truly extraordinary…"
He Yiming was astonished.
Clearly, when the Five-Fold Emperor Lotus Intent reached its peak power, it would bloom.
Once its energy was completely exhausted, the flower disappeared and began growing again from a bud.
Truly incredible.
"Pseudo Divine Ability—Star Shift!"
"Prepare for teleportation!!!"
Without hesitation, He Yiming activated the Pseudo Divine Ability: Star Shift.
The immense power of the pseudo divine ability flowed into the teleportation formation beneath the camp.
Immediately, vast spatial energy began boiling and spreading through the area.
As the teleportation array's power gradually increased, He Yiming continued controlling it while silently calculating.
It would take about one hour for the teleportation to fully activate.
Once it succeeded, the one million Lost Era survivors, these ancestors of the beast race would reach a safe location.
And if nothing unexpected happened, the system upgrade mission would also be completed.
However, because he had to concentrate entirely on controlling the teleportation array, He Yiming would likely not be able to fight.
Which meant—
Facing the massive demon army outside…
The only ones who could hold the line were the players.
In truth, He Yiming knew that it might have been safer to wipe out the demon army first and only then begin the teleportation.
But this was the Lost Era, when the Ten Thousand Demon Realm had launched a massive invasion.
Leaving aside the terrifying strength of the demon army, He Yiming wasn't even confident he could destroy them all.
And even if he did succeed, he would completely exhaust himself.
What if another demon army arrived while he was recovering?
Better to gamble everything now.
"Disciples!!!"
"The moment of the final battle has arrived!"
"This Sect Master has already activated the teleportation array! In one hour, the Lost Era survivors will be transported to a safe location!"
"That will mark our victory!"
"So disciples… the next one hour depends entirely on you!"
"No matter what happens, you must hold the enemy back and buy us this one hour!"
He Yiming shouted loudly.
After thinking for a moment, he issued another mission.
[Sect Legendary Quest – The Final Hour: If You're a Man, Stand Firm!]
Objective 1: Protect Sect Master He Yiming from interruption.
Objective 2: Hold the line for one hour.
Reward: 1,000,000 Contribution Points
Reward: Surviving disciples will obtain the unique title — Unyielding Spear
Whether in the camp or fighting in the other eight directions, the moment the players saw this system notification—
They instantly exploded with excitement.
No other reason.
Unyielding Spear.
Wasn't that basically the perfect description of themselves?!
"Brothers! Hold the line! Only the survivors are real men!"
"Whoever dies first is a grandson!"
"Damn it—charge!!!"
The players' morale instantly exploded to the max!
