Global Catastrophe: I Begin to Evolve from an Ancient Tree-Chapter 67: The Human Federation Will Not Be Defeated in This Battle

Chapter 67: Chapter 67: The Human Federation Will Not Be Defeated in This Battle

The unusual phenomenon in the Kunlun Mountain Range naturally drew the attention of many people. When they came again to inspect the place, they saw the mystical fog ahead, as if they were in a sacred celestial place.

Some tried to venture into the fog, but ended up losing their sense of direction and eventually circled back out.

Others were even more unfortunate.

By chance, they glimpsed the Kunlun Divine Realm behind the fog, only to be stopped by a towering Ancient Tree. Its roots, as thick as giant pythons, could crush mountains, and the terrifying aura it emitted made even fourth-level cultivators feel fear.

"Kunlun Divine Realm, no unauthorized entry!"

These eight words spread like the wind.

From then on.

The Kunlun Divine Realm became a celestial haven that everyone longed for, yet dared not breach.

Not to mention the fog that confused perception and distorted direction; just the terrifying Ancient Tree behind the mist was enough to make one hesitant to approach.

...

"Kunlun Divine Realm, it seems that one truly wants to transform into a Divine Spirit, detaching themselves from the mundane world!"

When Gu Fang received the news, he couldn’t help but shake his head slightly, his eyes filled with curiosity about the Kunlun Divine Realm.

Back when he stepped into the Kunlun Mountain Range, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi there was much more abundant than elsewhere, and there the Divine Tree towered into the sky, with the Dao Rhyme faintly visible.

Gu Fang had no doubt that if he could cultivate beside the Cyan Yang Divine Tree, he would surely progress rapidly and significantly.

Initially.

Gu Fang planned to solve the problem of the Fierce Beasts, then find an opportunity to cultivate in the Kunlun Mountain Range. But now it seemed that the opportunity had slipped away.

Suppressing the impact brought by the Kunlun Divine Realm, Gu Fang looked at the collapsed mountain before him, where lay the corpses of numerous Fierce Beasts.

Not long ago.

A Secret Realm descended upon the Northern Continent.

A large number of Fierce Beasts escaped from the Secret Realm, led by several fourth-level beasts, with the strongest being a mid-fourth level. Gu Fang, with the strongest of the Ninth War Zone, arrived first to hunt the beasts. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

After a fierce battle.

The Ninth War Zone lost two fourth-level lower-grade cultivators and over a hundred third-level cultivators, thus ensuring that all the beasts were exterminated there, preventing them from wreaking havoc across the land.

"Take all the fallen comrades’ bodies away for honorable burial. Everyone who participated in this battle has merit. When we return to the Ninth War Zone, we shall evaluate merits and rewards again!"

Gu Fang said solemnly.

With so many Fierce Beast corpses, it was naturally impossible to take them all away, nor was it practical to assess merits and rewards right there.

Therefore.

Gu Fang offered all the beast corpses in sacrifice, exchanging the obtained contributions for Contribution Orders. Once the battle truly ended, merits and rewards would be assessed.

It was at this moment the satellite phone vibrated, and Gu Fang answered, his expression gradually turning grim.

"Marshal, has something happened?"

A fourth-level lower-grade cultivator inquired, while others, though silent, also focused their gaze on Gu Fang.

From his expression, they could tell something was amiss.

Gu Fang said, "There’s news from the Third War Zone. A fourth-level upper-grade Fierce Beast has appeared in the Northern Continent. With the help of blood rain, it is now attempting to break through to fourth-level perfection.

The Third War Zone is doing everything to delay the beast’s breakthrough. We must head there immediately. If this beast breaks through, it will be a nightmare for the Federation!"

Fourth-level upper-grade Fierce Beast!

Upon hearing this, everyone’s expression changed.

They had killed a fourth-level upper-grade Fierce Beast before. Previously, to slay such a beast, about ten fourth-level lower-grade cultivators perished, with many more severely wounded.

It was evident.

Just how terrifying such a Fierce Beast was.

A fourth-level upper-grade was already formidable; if it truly broke through to fourth-level perfection, its power would be even more monstrous, and who knows how many would die then.

...

Slaughter!

The entire Cyan Yang Realm was plunged into endless slaughter.

All Secret Realms shattered and descended upon the world, releasing numerous Fierce Beasts, along with the rebellion of the native Fierce Beasts and the landing of the Deep Sea Fierce Beasts.

This scale of Beast Tide was much more terrifying than any previous ones.

Fortunately.

The Human Federation’s strength was no longer what it once was. Even facing the Beast Tide, they did not retreat a single step. The eighteen war zones constructed defensive lines, preventing the Beast Tide from setting foot on Federation territory.

At the same time.

A large number of top-tier cultivators entered the Beast Tide, implementing decapitation strategies, venturing into the deep sea and various continents to hunt fourth-level beasts, weakening the Beast Tide’s power from within.

Gu Qingyang, from the perspective of a Heavenly Dao Agent, could clearly see the ferocity of this battle, with humans and beasts falling every minute.

And on the battlefields at the Beast Tide and Federation frontlines, it was akin to a horrific meat grinder.

In this era of universal cultivation, traditional technological weapons were rarely used, with more of the combats being melee fights between cultivators and Fierce Beasts.

There were mages wielding magic staffs, casting Forbidden Spells from the rear, unleashing power akin to heavenly might, with dense lightning cleansing the land’s sins.

There were also cultivators flying with swords, breathing out Sword Qi, holding thunderstorms in their palms, slaying one Fierce Beast after another.

And body technique martial artists, whose blood and Qi transformed into dragons, their physical strength rivalling that of Fierce Beasts of the same level, fighting bare-chested and shaking mountains.

"The Human Federation will not be defeated in this battle!"

With just a few glances, Gu Qingyang could discern the situation. The appearance of the Divine Kingdom communication group had significantly enhanced the Human Federation’s foundation, making their strength far superior to the past.

Were it not for this unique blood rain, the beasts wouldn’t even have managed to form a Beast Tide.

Even if there was a Beast Tide now, it couldn’t truly threaten the foundation of the Federation.

The collapse of the Beast Tide was only a matter of time.

Of course.

To break the Beast Tide, the Federation also had to pay a certain price.

"To the Federation now, the Beast Tide is merely a way to train their troops, an appetizer if you will. The real bloodbath will commence with the Otherworld invasion.

Both being one tier in Heaven and Earth, no one knows how deep the foundation of that Otherworld is. If there is indeed another ninth-tier powerhouse there, the victory chances for the Cyan Yang Realm are slim!"

As an agent of the Heavenly Dao, whether Fierce Beast or human, both were part of the Cyan Yang Realm, yet they were irreconcilable.

In contrast to the mindless slaughter-driven Fierce Beasts, humans undoubtedly had more value for cultivation.

If the Human Federation couldn’t even solve the mere Beast Tide, it wouldn’t qualify to face the upcoming Otherworld invasion.

In the ethereal realm.

Gu Qingyang could sense the aura of that Otherworldly realm.

It was the Otherworldly Heavenly Dao, using Great Divine Techniques, spanning across endless space, targeting this realm for invasion.

Although the Otherworldly Heavenly Dao had suffered severe damage and was slumbering, the residual power was gradually opening the channel between the Two Realms, something Gu Qingyang was powerless to stop.

After all, his power was vastly inferior to the Otherworldly Heavenly Dao. When the channel between the Two Realms fully opened, it would mark the beginning of the Otherworld invasion.
