The Great Yu army faced an unexpected alliance of the Stone, Tree-man, and Blood Races. Despite the shocking turn of events and the Tree-man Race's potent regeneration, the Human forces, bolstered by the Nine Heavens Star River Array targeting the Blood Race, engaged the enemy. While Duke Yuan battled Blood Race experts and defended against the Tree-man Race, Shadow observed Elder Ji.

He understood that the Nine Heavens Star River Array's weak point was nearby.

This was precisely the key to shattering the formation!

"Alas!"

Witnessing a mortal perish, Shadow let out a sigh from his heart.

But Zhou...

"Hehe, all alone and helpless."

A member of the Blood Race lunged towards him, its maw stretched wide, already viewing Shadow as its next meal!

Shadow observed the approaching creature, his brow furrowing slightly.

He held a profound dislike for the Blood Race; their putrid stench was utterly repulsive to him.

"A cultivator at the first layer of the Dao Realm, truly a succulent morsel!"

As these words left its lips!

The monstrous, sharp teeth were mere inches from Shadow’s neck.

"Perish!"

In the very next instant, the Blood Race member disintegrated into a spray of blood, and Shadow had already vanished from his previous spot.

Within the Blood Cry Realm.

The patriarch of the Blood Race surveyed the carnage unfolding on the battlefield. Despite the formidable regenerative abilities of the Tree-man Race, the humans possessed the Nine Heavens Star River Array. The moment the two forces clashed, devastating losses were incurred on both sides.

Heads and mangled limbs littered the blood-soaked ground across the battlefield.

"Patriarch, will you not intervene?"

At this precise moment, a young Blood Race warrior, who had reached the eighth layer, inquired softly by his side.

The Blood Race patriarch turned his head, his crimson eyes fixing upon the subordinate.

"Plop!"

The young warrior's legs buckled, and he instantly dropped to his knees, feeling as though that intense gaze would utterly crush him.

"Hmph!"

The Blood Race patriarch retracted his gaze, returning his attention to the ongoing battle.

"Can't you see that human hasn't made a move yet?"

The subordinate looked towards the battlefield.

Zhan Tian remained stationary in the sky, an invisible zone of a thousand meters surrounding him, devoid of any life; neither the humans nor the three allied races dared to venture near!

He was waiting!

Awaiting the Blood Race patriarch!

Thus, even with mounting human casualties, he refrained from engaging.

"He is certainly no match for the patriarch!"

The young warrior asserted immediately.

"Naturally!"

The Blood Race patriarch stated impassively. Zhan Tian's current cultivation was merely at the early ninth layer; should he truly exert himself, even with the backing of the human's array, it would not take an extended period to achieve victory.

However, he exercised caution!

In the past, he had suffered grievous injuries at the hands of the human emperor, forcing him into a deep slumber.

It had taken him over a hundred thousand years to recover, and during that time, his power had further advanced.

Although it could be seen as a blessing in disguise, the harrowing experience had instilled in him a heightened sense of vigilance.

Based on intelligence gathered from the three allied races and Hidden Kill, the current human emperor was no trivial opponent.

He had no desire to relive the ordeal of ten thousand years ago!

Furthermore, he doubted his luck would hold out a second time.

"What is the current situation regarding the human imperial city?"

The Blood Race patriarch inquired with a grave expression.

"Zhou from Hidden Kill has cornered the Human Emperor within the imperial city!"

The subordinate responded without delay.

"Has he made his move?"

"No!"

Upon hearing this, the Blood Race patriarch's demeanor shifted, becoming complex. "Continue to maintain communication with that faction, and be aware that not only Hidden Kill, but certain members of the Tree-man Race are also operating within that area."

"Understood, Patriarch!"

The Blood Race patriarch once again directed his gaze towards the battlefield.

With his immense power within the Blood Cry Realm, he feared no adversary.

On the battlefield, the two sides were locked in a near-stalemate; the ultimate victor would be decided by himself and Zhan Tian.

If all proceeded smoothly, Zhan Tian... Haha!

He was of no consequence!

Therefore, he resolved to observe further, and also to ascertain... whether Hidden Kill truly served the humans or harbored ulterior motives.

"Shadow, he has been contained. Should he engage now?"

Elder Ji's voice resonated through.

Intermingled within the chaos of Great Yu, Shadow paused momentarily, caught in a moment of hesitation.

Without the Nine Heavens Star River Array's support, humanity would undoubtedly face defeat!

But Zhou... after an internal deliberation, he ultimately chose to align with Zhou's interests, stating, "Engage!"

"Understood!"

Elder Ji's expression turned resolute, and he promptly relayed the message to the other two individuals.

"Make your move!"

Instantly!

The spiritual energy of three powerful cultivators surged into the Nine Heavens Star River Array.

"Rumble...."

The very core of the array trembled violently!

The National Preceptor's eyes widened in sheer disbelief.

The three crucial nexus points of the formation had been compromised, and subsequently, other points within the array sustained damage!

The ethereal starlight began to gradually dim.

The oppressive might of the Blood Race dissipated, and the army of Great Yu regained its former strength.

"It's broken, hahaha...."

The Blood Race erupted in wild laughter.

Deprived of the Nine Heavens Star River Array's suppression, humanity... was ripe for slaughter!

Where equilibrium once prevailed, in an instant!

The humans found themselves in a dire predicament, heavily disadvantaged.

"What is happening?"

Duke Liu exclaimed, a mixture of shock and alarm gripping him. The Nine Heavens Star River Array had been shattered!

"Bang!"

The array core itself fractured!

This signified the complete and utter destruction of the Nine Heavens Star River Array.

The National Preceptor’s hands were shaking slightly.

"How is this possible?"

Even he found it difficult to comprehend.

He had been stationed here, and the array was well within his awareness.

It was utterly puzzling how those three crucial points had been breached!

"National Preceptor, what in the world happened?"

Duke Liu's tone was extremely displeased; he couldn't possibly feel good about this.

Without the array, Great Yu was destined for defeat!

In mere moments!

The casualties in Great Yu had already surpassed previous counts.

"Someone managed to infiltrate and dismantle the array!"

The National Preceptor stated slowly, "Only someone with such profound array mastery could possibly be from Hidden Kill!"

Duke Liu fell silent.

Hidden Kill!

"Send word to the imperial city at once; we cannot hold out, His Majesty must make a decision!"

"Phew——"

"Hmm!"

The National Preceptor nodded slowly. Without the protective array, Great Yu had no hope of securing victory.

Zhan Tian's chances were slim; facing that ancient being from the Blood Race without the Nine Heavens Star River Array, there was virtually no possibility of survival.

The urgent message swiftly reached the imperial city, finding its way to the imperial palace.

It arrived at Qixuan Hall!

Upon reviewing the battle report from the Blood Cry Realm, Emperor Yu slowly rose to his feet.

He then exited the imperial palace!

Just as he reached the area outside the imperial city, a colossal palm descended from the heavens, "Qin Yu, you are not departing!"

"Insolent!"

Emperor Yu unleashed a powerful punch.

In the sky, the fist and palm collided, shattering instantly!

However, the resulting immense shockwave obliterated the array defending the entire imperial city, and its lingering power caused the ground to tremble ferociously.
