Chapter 0416: The Killing Continues

Countless sea beasts swarmed in from all directions. Trillions of god-tier warriors on the Horn of Oblivion paled in fear. After being shocked, Kennedy, the leader of the six major families, immediately ordered, “Activate the defense formation!”
Woodlow and the others also rushed to give orders.
As Kennedy and the others gave the command, a brilliant light filled the sky above the Horn of Oblivion as the formation was activated, creating an energy shield through its magic restrictions.
Yet, barely had the formation started when an attack from ten trillion sea beasts arrived.
The numerous attacks intertwined into countless beams of light. The gods were stunned to see that it seemed as though only these lights remained between heaven and earth, with the danger of being engulfed by them at any moment.
Boom! It was as if thunder had struck. After a violent shaking, the formation was shattered by that single attack.
Kennedy and the others’ expressions changed. They shouted, “Strengthen the formation’s defense!”
The god-tier warriors of the six major families respectfully agreed and then flew into the formation, pouring their divine power to reinforce its defenses. But this time, it wasn’t just the Seven-Colored Coiling Dragon—it was ten trillion sea beasts. Among them, though there were no more Perfect Sea Beasts, there were still those equivalent to peerless human warriors.
These peerless sea beasts, hidden among the horde, were quickly detected under the Yellow Dragon’s divine perception—there were probably around a hundred of them.
On the Horn of Oblivion, there were only about eighty peerless warriors from the six major families, along with others who had come to watch.
“Kill!”
As the horde surged closer, someone shouted. Instantly, a murderous intent surged through the air. Roar! Many human god-tier warriors also manifested their true forms and fought alongside the sea beasts.
Bloodshed and cruelty began to spread.
This was different from the previous battles between the descendants of the six major families—those were contests, but this was pure slaughter.
On the Horn of Oblivion, some god-tier warriors did consider fleeing, but the seas, skies, and lands within millions of miles around the horn were all filled with the horde, leaving no way to escape. To survive, they had to keep killing and work together to repel the horde.
Yet, even before they could repel the horde, they might be devoured by the beasts. Even more likely, the trillions of god-tier warriors on the Horn of Oblivion would be overwhelmed by the horde, with most of them forever descending into the hellish realm of death.
“Protect the young master!”
After killing a sea beast, Bogge joined the others in guarding closely around the Yellow Dragon.

As these sea beasts surged forward, more and more of them attacked Huang Long, all of considerable strength. Fortunately, there was Brade, an unparalleled warrior; otherwise, even Huang Long and his twenty-five companions would have been unable to deal with them. The sea beasts kept arriving around Huang Long, only to fall one after another under the onslaught of Brade and Huang Long’s twenty-five companions. However, this situation couldn’t last long and was soon disrupted. “An unparalleled warrior beast—tsk tsk, I like it!” A giant four-armed water ape appeared before Huang Long and the others, its eyes blood-red, before pouncing on Brade. This giant water ape was also an unparalleled warrior. Brade was forced to engage in a fierce battle with it and could no longer pay attention to Huang Long’s side. As time passed, more and more sea beasts gathered around Huang Long’s group, making it increasingly difficult for his twenty-five companions to handle them. Eventually, Huang Long had to summon nearly six million mutated beast beasts. With these summoned beasts, the pressure around him decreased significantly. Under the soul attacks of these six million beasts, the sea beasts attacking them kept falling and disappearing. For a time, an area of millions of miles around Huang Long became a vacuum zone, attracting the attention of many god-tier warriors from every corner of the Forgotten Corner. Some of these god-tier warriors even thought Huang Long’s side was safe and flew over to gather there. The slaughter continued. The bodies of the sea beasts kept falling, piling up alongside those of the fallen human god-tier warriors. In some areas of the Forgotten Corner’s ground, small mountains even formed. Cries, groans, roars, and various other sounds came from every corner of the Forgotten Corner. The stench of blood filled the air above it and, carried by the sea breeze, spread over hundreds of millions of miles, even further. The Demos family’s headquarters was located on the Unda Continent. Compared to families like Runing’s, the Demos family was the strongest here. Although their headquarters was on the Unda Continent, it wasn’t situated near the Forgotten Corner. It would take at least several months for their family members to arrive from the headquarters to provide support. Thus, although the six major families had sent out messages to summon their forces from the Unda Continent, help couldn’t arrive that quickly. Everyone stopped hoping for reinforcements and could only fight desperately. Kennedy was battling five unparalleled warrior sea beasts—five sea lions who were almost at the level of supreme gods. So, despite being a supreme god himself, Kennedy couldn’t escape for the time being.

Woodlo and the others were all in the same situation, similar to Kennedy’s.
“I didn’t expect the one chosen by my master to be a high-level beast driver, huh? Are they all Mutant Beasts?!” Just as Yellow Dragon and Bogge were dealing with the sea beasts that kept surging in from all sides, suddenly, a humming sound arose above Yellow Dragon. To their astonishment, the Perfect Chaos Beast, the Seven-Colored Coiling Dragon, appeared before them.
Yellow Dragon’s eyes narrowed.
“Kid, hehe, don’t be nervous. I’m just here to take you to see my master,” said the Seven-Colored Coiling Dragon, noticing Yellow Dragon’s expression, then smiling. It shook its body and transformed into a dignified middle-aged man dressed in splendid clothes.
The middle-aged man’s eyes, unlike those of ordinary human gods, had a strange multicolored glow, similar to the color of his dragon-like skin.
Although the man said he only wanted to take Yellow Dragon to see his master and seemed to have no intention of killing him, Bogge and the others still guarded Yellow Dragon closely, watching the man warily.
“See your master? I don’t seem to know your master,” Yellow Dragon said, frowning.
“Haha, you’ll meet them soon enough,” the man laughed and continued, “Kid, it’s better if you come with me obediently. Though you’re a high-level beast driver, these Mutant Beasts are useless to me.” He glanced at the six million Mutant Beasts surrounding Yellow Dragon.
Of course, although he claimed those Mutant Beasts were useless to him, he was still shocked inwardly.
Nearly six million Mutant Beasts?!
He had lived for over a thousand Eras, but this was the first time he had heard of such a thing.
Yellow Dragon shook his head. “The Land of Forgetfulness is about to open. I won’t go with you.” Although this middle-aged man seemed harmless, going with him to meet his master would surely mean missing the opening of the Land of Forgetfulness.
Before the man could say anything else, suddenly his eyes narrowed, and a rainbow glow flashed. Yellow Dragon and the others were puzzled. Following his gaze, they saw someone appear—it was Marshall.
“A Supreme God of the Wood Element at the Perfect stage,” the middle-aged man transformed from the Seven-Colored Coiling Dragon looked at Marshall solemnly.
“Indeed. Though I’m not Kennedy, it’s not that easy for you to take Yellow Dragon away,” Marshall said, clearly intending to intervene.
The middle-aged man transformed from the Seven-Colored Coiling Dragon frowned.
“Do you really intend to intervene?” the Seven-Colored Coiling Dragon asked in a humming voice.
“Indeed,” Marshall replied firmly.

Huang Long was also surprised. Although Marshall intended to take him as a “disciple,” he hadn’t agreed, right? It seemed unnecessary for him to engage in a fierce battle with the Colorful Coiling Dragon to protect himself.

After receiving Marshall’s resolute reply, the Colorful Coiling Dragon grew furious. With a roar, it flew at Marshall and attacked. Last time, it had tried to take Huang Long away but was stopped by Kennedy. Now that it thought it would succeed, the emergence of another Upper God at the Great Perfection level of the Wood element infuriated it beyond measure! Before coming here, it had sworn before its master that it would bring this man back.

When the Colorful Coiling Dragon attacked, Marshall laughed heartily. Instead of retreating, he advanced and engaged in a fierce battle with it. As two warriors at the Great Perfection level clashed, Huang Long, Bog, and the others had to step back.

As Marshall had said, though he wasn’t Kennedy, it wasn’t easy for the Colorful Coiling Dragon to take Huang Long from his hands. Generally, Upper Gods at the Great Perfection level had similar strengths, and such gods could not kill each other—this had never happened in the Pantheon. It was simply a matter of each having their own strengths.

Marshall’s main body practiced the laws of the Wood element. Although these laws weren’t as fast for recovery as the laws of light, they were second only to them. Thus, Marshall grew more and more courageous as the battle progressed.

The Colorful Coiling Dragon’s attacks were somewhat stronger than Marshall’s, but they still couldn’t overcome him. As the two fought fiercely, their terrifying auras affected the surrounding godly warriors. Some of them, unprepared, were reduced to dust, forcing the human godly warriors and sea beasts in the area to flee in panic.

Although the Colorful Coiling Dragon was stopped by Marshall, Huang Long and the others couldn’t relax either. Sea beasts continued to approach Huang Long from all directions.

Time passed. Several hours went by. Cries of pain and roars still echoed throughout every corner of the Corner of Forgetfulness.

At that moment, more human godly warriors from the vicinity of the Corner of Forgetfulness arrived and joined the battle. Gradually, the human godly warriors gained the upper hand.

Just like primal beasts, if sea beasts emerged from the Abyssal Sea and entered the continent, all human godly warriors were required to kill them—this was a rule set by the nine main gods of the Netherworld.

“Retreat!”

In the end, seeing the situation, the Colorful Coiling Dragon, which had been fighting against Marshall, had no choice but to order a retreat. At its command, countless sea beasts returned to the sea. The great battle finally ended, leaving behind only the bodies of the sea beasts and the human godly warriors.

The sunlight gradually dimmed, its last rays illuminating the Corner of Forgetfulness, casting a final glow over the bodies of the gods.
