The situation on the battlefield instantly became more tense and fierce.
The battle between the Gongsun family and the Evil Dragon Clan entered a white-hot stage, with both sides doing their best to fight for every chance of survival.
Li Chengfeng, however, roamed the edges of the battlefield like a ghost, searching for his next target.
His eyes revealed endless indifference and determination, as if he wanted to drag all his enemies into the endless darkness.
Bei Hai Wulin was so angry that smoke was practically coming out of his ears. He had originally made ample preparations and was full of confidence that he would take down the Evil Dragon Clan in one fell swoop, throwing his weight around in the Far East and plundering countless resources.
However, reality had dealt him a cruel blow—not only had he failed, but he had also ended up seriously injured, and even a spiritual treasure like the Hunyuan Bag had been snatched away.
The Hunyuan Bag was not just an ordinary spiritual treasure; it also concealed secrets from the Spirit World, making it exceptionally powerful.
Bei Hai Wulin knew very well that losing this treasure would result in severe punishment upon his return.
He had originally hoped to raze the Evil Dragon Clan to the ground in order to lessen his punishment, but now it seemed that the Gongsun family was so vulnerable that he had completely lost hope.
"I might as well go all the way. I'm out of here!" Bei Hai Wulin gritted his teeth and decided to use a secret technique to escape the battlefield.
A special spiritual force suddenly erupted from his body, attempting to open a portal.
However, just as the portal was about to form, a loud crash was heard, and the portal shattered instantly.
The Supreme Commander of the Evil Dragon Clan thrust out the Dark Spear in his hand and sneered, "Trying to run? Not so easy! Today, you and the Gongsun family will be staying here for good.
You're no good either. You even thought about abandoning the Gongsun family to escape on your own at this critical moment. That's the way of Bei Hai, utterly disgusting."
These words, like rolling thunder, shocked the entire field. The disciples of the Gongsun family immediately suffered a blow to their morale. They had originally thought that Bei Hai Wulin had come to help them, but now that he wanted to escape, they felt extremely disappointed and frustrated.
At the same time, the Flame Blade Formation also suffered heavy damage. Under the desperate attacks of countless beastmen and Evil Dragon warriors, the Flame Blade Formation finally shattered.
Although the Evil Dragon Clan paid the price of more than five thousand beastmen's lives, they successfully breached the Gongsun family's defenses.
The remaining Nascent Soul stage cultivators were immediately surrounded by the Evil Dragon Clan's demon kings, and a brutal slaughter was about to unfold.
On the battlefield, one side desperately fought like tigers descending the mountain, while the other desperately fled for their lives like stray dogs. The situation was changing rapidly.
The Gongsun family fled all the way, but were suddenly interrupted by a loud noise. The entire world seemed to be enveloped by some kind of formation, and the Evil Dragon base also began to slowly rotate. The formation's Gate of Life and Gate of Death alternated, enveloping everyone within it.
At this moment, everyone was shocked by the scene before them, and they stopped fighting and retreated to their respective camps.
However, those who did not have time to withdraw were killed by their opponents, and some died together.
Both sides had already lost half of their manpower, and the hundreds of thousands of people were now reduced to only fifty or sixty thousand.
They stared blankly at the great formation in the sky, unable to believe it for a moment.
The head of the Gongsun family roared angrily, "Li Chengfeng, you villain, get out here! What kind of ability is this? You only know how to hide behind the scenes and plot schemes, you despicable villain, you shameless scoundrel!"
The Evil Dragon Clan's Dragon Wizard, Xie Huihuang, however, remained restrained and shouted loudly, "Is that you, the world-renowned Li Chengfeng? I have a proposition.
Although you have deceived my Evil Dragon Clan, we admire you very much.
Why don't we cooperate once? You help us kill everyone in the Gongsun family, and all the Gongsun family's treasures, resources, and wealth will be yours. How about that? Would that be acceptable?"
The Gongsun family immediately responded with angry roars, "Li Chengfeng, if you are still a human being, if you are still a member of the human race, you cannot cooperate with the Evil Dragon Clan!
If my Gongsun family is destroyed, and the Evil Dragon Clan dominates, then they will sacrifice all the resources of the Far East, and the inter-realm war will break out again! Then you will be a sinner of the human race!
Release the great formation immediately, and my Gongsun family is willing to apologize and give you sufficient compensation.
Gongsun Haiming, who plotted against you, has already been captured. What else are you not satisfied with?"
Li Chengfeng's voice echoed in the void, his projection like a supreme deity, overlooking the Gongsun family below.
He smiled slightly, held his head high, and his tone was full of unquestionable determination: "Your Gongsun family knows to reconcile with me now, but didn't you consider today's outcome back then?
I will not let you go because of some national righteousness. The Gongsun family is nothing compared to dealing with the Evil Dragon Clan or even Bei Hai.
If you had cooperated honestly, you would not only have benefited, but you would have become stronger and stronger.
But now, today is destined to be the day of your Gongsun family's destruction."
The head of the Gongsun family was furious and cursed, "Li Chengfeng, you are a great demon!
Do you know that what you are doing will be ridiculed by the people of the world? The Human Race President of the Xuan Guang Continent will definitely come to you, and then you will also bear the infamy of slaughtering human forces! You should think about the consequences!
However, Li Chengfeng remained unmoved. He said coldly, "Consequences? Just like when your Gongsun family wanted to deal with me, did you think about the consequences?
I don't care if they call me a demon or a monster. They can say whatever they want, and I don't care.
I only stick to my own principles, and I only set my own rules.
Anyone who dares to oppose me and wants to put me to death, whether it's an individual or a force, I will definitely make them vanish into ashes, never to be reborn."
At this time, the Supreme Commander of the Evil Dragon Clan also cupped his fists and said, "Li Chengfeng, this is a true hero! Your human race is like this, often ostracizing your own people.
Moreover, those so-called heroes, for the sake of human righteousness, often swallow their anger and are harmed to death by others, eventually implicating their family and friends to die without a burial place.
This is the first time I have seen a human with such courage and integrity! Good! My Evil Dragon Clan admires you immensely! I hope to cooperate with you to completely eradicate the Gongsun family! I wonder what Fellow Daoist Li thinks?"
The Evil Dragon Clan's Dragon Wizard, Xie Huihuang, also nodded. He felt that what his Supreme Commander said was exactly what he wanted.
He looked at Li Chengfeng, his eyes shining with anticipation, waiting for his response.
Li Chengfeng's words were like a spring breeze, carrying a hint of irresistible temptation. He said with a smile, "Evil Dragon Clan, I can give you a way out.
As long as you are willing to pledge allegiance to me, I guarantee that everyone can transform into a True Dragon, and no longer have to work for those high and mighty dragons of the Evil Dragon Clan.
You are just their dragon slaves.
Besides, I have already destroyed the altar, and the coordinates have disappeared. The Xiaolong Sword can no longer transmit power.
You are already isolated and helpless. If you are willing to pledge allegiance to me, I will definitely keep my promise. You also know my reputation, Li Chengfeng, and my word is my bond."
