At this moment, the heavens and earth intertwined, the vast Great Tao roared and surged, with multiple paths of immortal brilliance piercing through, directly penetrating the fifth and sixth Saints, nailing them in the void.

From afar, Zhang Yinghe's heart pounded violently, filled with anxiety.

Shortly after.

Zhang Yinghe was still chased down by several Demon Saints, including Lin Wenti, whom he had almost killed alongside before.

Besieged by the Demon Saints, Lin Wenti roared furiously, his hair standing on end, while a Star Lord appeared behind him, with azure energy rolling and piercing through the nine heavens.

The other Demon Saints likewise had Star Lords manifested behind them, each terrifying beyond compare.

They did not hesitate to unleash their lethal moves, determined to annihilate Zhang Yinghe!

"Boom, boom, boom—"

A violent collision erupted, shaking the sky, as the void shattered like a mirrored fragment, with boundless airwaves and Tao Marks from various schools mingling, surging all around.

Once, Zhang Yinghe fought two adversaries, killing Ye Qing and nearly killing Lin Wenti as well.

Now, the Demon Clan's Saints learned from this, opting no longer for a double Saint assault, willing to let Snow Moon Demon Saint and other Saints perish, just to gather enough strength to hunt Zhang Yinghe.

The death trap had arrived!

Zhang Yinghe roared, his black hair like a waterfall cascading down, wielding a blood-red spear to subdue the foes.

Yet, beneath him, the Blood Jade Kirin, though a seventh-tier Ancient Desolate Beast, could not bear such an extreme, terrifying clash of energy.

In a series of direct collisions, the Blood Jade Kirin howled in agony and turned into a mist of blood, vanishing from the world!

In that instant, Zhang Yinghe's cohesive energy leaked, revealing vulnerabilities.

Led by Lin Wenti, the Demon Saints pressed, exploiting their Immortal Apertures, burning their Immortal Nuance, making the Holy Artifacts shine even brighter.

Lin Wenti was brimming with azure light, every strand of hair shining, the azure light soaring to tens of thousands of feet, roaring again, his Qingxiao Sacred Sword making the heavens tremble. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

The other Demon Saints were even more formidable, directly causing star-crushing lights to erupt, filled with murderous intent.

At the brink of life and death, Zhang Yinghe's heart suddenly calmed, the Blood Fire Long Spear returning to the abyss.

Lichun House, slums, Huishan Academy, Pengcheng, Nanyang, Eastern Wilderness Academy, Starfire Miniworld...

Sister Zhang Yingyu, Uncle Zhang Xiaohua, Brother Niu Xiaocao, Mentor Tie Yuanshuai, Elder of the Eastern Wilderness Academy, Elder Star...

It's said that in the instant of life and death, the dying will replay the important fragments of their life in their minds.

Now, objects and people exchanged continuously, flashing swiftly like a film hauntingly replaying in Zhang Yinghe's mind.

"Buzz, buzz..."

The Blood Fire Long Spear thundered explosively, Zhang Yinghe's eyes gleamed intensely.

Unexpectedly, he abandoned everything to attack Lin Wenti with all his might!

One inch of territory, one inch of blood!

At this critical juncture of life and death, to protect the human race's land, even if it meant dying, even if it meant enduring thousands of pains, Zhang Yinghe dragged Lin Wenti to extinction with him, displaying an indomitable will!

The blazing blood fire continued burning on the spear, erupting with brilliant luminance, dimming the sun, moon, and stars!

"My blood is still hot!"

Bang!

Rumble!

Rumble rumble!

Heaven and earth turned over, an endless bloodfire surged, causing smoke to billow and earth veins to disarray.

The surviving Demon Saints looked at the shattered Qingxiao Sacred Sword and Blood Fire Long Spear, each silent.

Yet, the residual horror on their faces revealed the terror of Zhang Yinghe's divine power.

For if Zhang Yinghe had chosen to perish with anyone other than Lin Wenti, they would have died as Lin Wenti did!

...

...

Upon learning Zhang Yinghe's squad was completely wiped out, the Saints of the Human Race felt deep regret, the Heavenly Observation Department of the Heavenly Palace plunged into chaos.

"The Demon Clan paid such a hefty price?! Also, the Demon Slaughter Blood Fire Gun and Morning Sun Great Saint sacrificed?!" someone widened their eyes in disbelief.

"No, impossible, how is this possible. Morning Sun's attack is unparalleled, and Fenghe's speed remarkable, with their cover..." someone spoke in trembling voice, the more deducing, the more fearful.

"Zhang Yinghe sacrificed... He wasn't even at his peak, he definitely had hope for Quasi-Emperor status, alas~" someone sighed in agony, lamenting Zhang Yinghe's untimely death unable to reach his pinnacle.

Unimaginable.

Truly unimaginable, despite the control of the Heavenly Observation Department of the Sky Palace, even having a team for assistance.

Yet Zhang Yinghe met an untimely death, how tragic indeed!

If Zhang Yinghe reached his peak, he would surely attain Quasi-Emperor status, or even absolute pinnacle Quasi-Emperor.

If so, he would undeniably assist Hong Yuan in alleviating some burden on "The Destiny of Great Dreams," Shang Yaoqin!

But alas, he's dead, everything becoming mere ephemeral illusion.

On the other side.

Highly optimistic about Zhang Yinghe, regarding him as a final disciple, Elder Star was now flipping through forbidden books in the Scripture Pavilion of the Human Clan Sky Palace.

Elder Star was an Elder of the Starfire lineage, with very high privileges.

This visit aimed to explore more potential of Blood Tao, in hopes of better aiding Zhang Yinghe's growth.

In this venture, he suddenly read a hypothesis by the Great Emperors in a black forbidden book about the impossibility of exterminating the Demon Clan.
