A Scroll of Infinite Glory

Chapter 613 The Five Turbid Ancestral Beasts, Heavenly Ghosts Wander

"To live, be a hero; to die, a ghost of valor. Even now, I think of Xiang Yu, who refused to cross the Yangtze River!"

When Li Qingzhao's songs spread far and wide, not far behind her Earth, more than seven hundred Xiang Yus were galloping through space on horseback.

Each of them led a large army to escort the wounded soldiers in their retreat.

Several of the Xiang Yus, upon hearing the song, spurred their horses back and looked in the direction of Li Qingzhao.

"Stop looking. Although the song is a tribute to you, it was also her idea to have us escort the wounded soldiers to safety first."

Liu Bang rode by on a dragon, carrying a crimson longsword, his whole body covered in red. He exclaimed, "I clearly won, but I didn't expect your fame to be no less than mine."

The expressions on the faces of the people around Xiang Yu were rather unfriendly.

However, Xiang Yu, who appeared to be the youngest and had the strongest aura, brandished his halberd and ordered them to continue on their way, showing no intention of arguing with Liu Bang.

"He tried to imitate that junior by wearing a full set of silver armor and white clothes, but in the end, he still ended up with his own blood staining him red."

As the young Xiang Yu turned around, he grabbed Liu Bang and lifted him off the dragon's back.

"You old rascal who's always trying to be clever, you should be in the wounded soldiers' ward too."

He tossed Liu Bang to the camp with the best healing array among the wounded soldiers, seemingly disgusted, and shook the blood off his hands before continuing on his way.

Unexpectedly, more than 500 dragons came chasing after them from the side.

The more than five hundred Liu Bangs on the dragon seemed to have made a pact, whistling at the young Xiang Yu as they sped past.

Even as the massive legion suffered heavy casualties and retreated, it still dominated the starry sky.

Liu Bei, tens of millions of miles away, also noticed the scene and his face was full of admiration.

"As expected of Emperor Gaozu, he was always so carefree."

Behind him were several Zhang Feis pouring wine for him, whispering and discussing something.

"Those ancestors look like dissolute scoundrels, and my elder brother actually admires even such people. It must be my elder brother."

"My older brother seems to be the kind of person who would say something like that."

"My older brother... I doubt my older brother would say that... Waaah, is my older brother already dead?!"

"Oh, don't cry, don't cry. Drink more wine; it will help you recover from your injuries."

Zhang Fei and his ilk drank wine in a very rough manner, while Zhou Yu and Sun Ce were much more elegant as they sipped wine while traveling.

"Why does this wine taste like grass ash?"

"This is talisman wine brewed by the Great Sage Master. I wonder how many talismans were burned in it. It smells a bit like grass ash. What's so strange about that?"

"Which world's great teacher?!"

Sun Ce was horrified. "Our great teacher is a sorcerer who is good at using talismanic water to turn people into living corpses."

"Oh, there's such a Zhang Jiao? The Zhang Jiaos I've seen are all pretty good, but they're all a bit naive."

As Sun Ce and his men argued and made a ruckus, their horses' speed gradually slowed down, seemingly without their knowledge.

The legion was so large that no one noticed, and unknowingly, the army led by Sun Ce and his men had become part of the rear guard of the legion.

Adjacent to this large army were the troops of Liu Bei and Zhang Jiao.

"It seems that both Mr. Zhuge and the Great Teacher of Wisdom share this idea."

The most haggard-looking Zhou Yu was holding a washbasin in his arms, spitting out mouthfuls of blood every now and then, yet a smile appeared on his face.

What kind of intentions were they? Nothing more than covering their retreat.

Li Qingzhao, who came from outside the border, was a formidable figure, one of the top in the allied forces, but she had already been seriously injured in the earlier battle.

How long can she hold out against the enemy alone?

If the allied forces are to have a chance to regroup, they will need more men to cover the rear.

"They refuse to cross the Yangtze River to the east!"

One of Zhou Yu's horses simply reined in and stopped moving forward, turning back to look.

"Ha, I wonder if after today I'll remember that Jiangdong still has Sun Ce!"

The next moment, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu felt an indescribable pressure, and their gazes as they looked back became extremely heavy.

In the distant sea of ​​stars, a towering shadow has already surged forth, with countless Earths rising and falling within it.

The Earth in which Li Qingzhao lived was like a speck of dust before a tsunami, teetering on the brink of destruction, seemingly about to be completely destroyed and vanish without a trace in the blink of an eye.

"They've caught up again. It seems the damage inflicted on him by the combined attack of the Allied Legion has been healed by the power of the Heavenly Demon."

Li Qingzhao pressed down on the strings of her zither and looked up.

The moonlight still enveloped the solitary peak where she stood. The moon in the sky remained still, unmoved by the overwhelming shadow ahead, and was not pulled away or shattered into dust.

It wasn't the moonlight that sheltered her, but rather she who sheltered the bright moon.

In this world called Warriors Orochi, Earth is actually connected to several different dimensions.

These other dimensions are sometimes called the Celestial Palace, sometimes Olympus, and sometimes Asgard. Although the relationships between the various forces are not harmonious, they are generally pursuing a stable order.

However, later, Yinglong, the most powerful war god in the immortal realm, was deceived by demons and accidentally shattered the divine mirror used by the immortal realm to imprison demons in the world. He himself was also filled with countless demonic energies, falling from immortality to demon, and transforming from a divine dragon into a snake demon, wreaking havoc on the human world and ravaging the immortal realm.

The forces from Olympus and Asgard saw an opportunity to strengthen themselves in this chaos and began to make their own plans.

It's not a big deal.

Whether it's the Serpent Demon, or Zeus, the king of the gods of Olympus, or Odin, the king of the gods of Asgard, although their strength is formidable, it is not enough to completely set them apart from the other heroes of this world.

If those heroes and valiant warriors can cooperate sincerely and join forces, they will be able to defeat these raging monsters and greedy kings one by one.

The problem was that at that time, four teams of reincarnators from the Main God Space entered this world.

The already chaotic situation, after these variables were added, took a turn for the worse and developed in a direction that no one expected.

After gaining insights into cultivation from the reincarnators of his faction, the Serpent Demon attempted to trace the source of the power that had corrupted him, and surprisingly came into contact with something located outside the multiverse of Warriors Orochi.

Indeed, Yinglong, the former divine general of the celestial realm, was originally the strongest being in the celestial realm. Those demons were merely creatures clinging to life under the siege of the celestial realm. It was questionable that the demonic energy imprisoned by them could completely corrupt Yinglong.

Odin and Zeus both studied this phenomenon and believed that what truly corrupted Yinglong was not the demonic energy, but a destructive will from the very origin of the world.

The once divine general Yinglong has unwittingly become a vessel for the will to destroy the world.

The findings of these two ambitious individuals were half right.

The power that corrupted Yinglong was indeed a destructive will, but it did not come from their own world; rather, it came from monsters outside of it.

When the lifespan of the multiverse comes to an end, its remains often sink to the bottom of the Great Void Sea, silent and eternally desolate.

However, there are also some multiverses that once developed brilliant civilizations and possessed a certain spirituality. If the old spirituality survives after the end of its lifespan, it will continue to ferment in the remains, gradually transforming the entire multiverse remains into a twisted monster.

This monster is filled with world-destroying qualities. When it roams the Great Void Sea, it often harbors great malice towards those relatively young multiverses with intact spacetime order.

They often attempt to attack young multiverses, trying to assimilate them and prematurely decay them.

Therefore, powerful civilizations that possess multi-dimensional power will almost always discover the existence of these monsters and give them various names.

In the immortal civilization, it is believed that this kind of creature was originally the will of heaven of the old world. After the five turbid energies in the world developed to the extreme, it died and was reborn. It is "the one who dies and becomes a ghost". It carries the obsession of destruction and decay and will instinctively spread the five turbid energies to other worlds.

Therefore, it is called the Five Turbid Ancestral Beast and the Destroyer of Ruins.

Near the multiverse of Warriors Orochi, there was already a newly born Destroyer of Ruins wandering around, instinctively emitting its aura to the surroundings.

If only Yinglong is corrupted by demons, then after the snake demon is completely destroyed, the wisp of energy that has penetrated into this world will also be cut off.

That Void-Destroying Heavenly Demon might not even notice this place so quickly.

However, due to the mess caused by the reincarnators, the snake demon took the initiative to explore the source of its demonic power, which caused the Destroyer of Ruins to sense it and emit an increasingly strong aura towards this world.

After the Reincarnators' team battle ended, the surviving side quickly fled, but the civilization within the multiverse of Warriors Orochi had to endure an increasingly dire situation.

To date, tens of millions of parallel universes have been eroded and assimilated by the power of the Destroyer of Ruins.

This once relatively young multiverse has been severely affected, and no new branches of time are growing anymore.

The snake demon seems to have a collecting habit, pulling all sorts of things from the deteriorating universe, like the Earth, the Moon, and the Sun, to its front.

The serpent demon's magic spread, forming a vast shadow. Wherever he went, these demonized earths followed, like duckweed adrift on a dark sea.

The allied forces, spanning numerous parallel universes, have grown significantly in power over the years.

Their exchanges, the collision of countless wisdoms, and the profound secrets left behind by the reincarnators who originally belonged to their camps, all served as a starting point, leading to the development of countless powerful spells, arrays, and combat techniques.

There have been quite a few seven-star powerhouses, and a few eight-star powerhouses as well.

Unfortunately, their development speed could not match that of the Serpent Demons, who were backed by the Heavenly Demons.

Not to mention, there were also many traitors who took their research results and joined the Serpent Demon's ranks, making the Serpent Demon's skills in using the power of the Heavenly Demon even more profound.

There was an Odin who, because of his outstanding achievements in this area and the most plagiarism of past achievements, actually became the chief strategist under the Serpent Demon and was also blessed with a strong power of the celestial demon.

"Li Qingzhao".

Odin, with his elegant figure and youthful appearance but blind in both eyes, stood atop a wave of shadows and spoke first.

"You don't even belong to this world, so why fight to the death for them?"

"You came into this world for another purpose. Our Emperor admires strong people like you the most. If you are willing to give up those who have failed, His Majesty can not only treat you as an honored guest, but can even help you find what you are looking for."

Li Qingzhao plucked a string on the zither with her fingers, her delicate fingers like plum blossoms in the snow, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

"All things have a limited lifespan, and birth and death are natural and understandable. But you have become the claws of evil beasts, causing this world to perish prematurely. It's like being coerced or tempted by outsiders and then poisoning your own parents."

"The crimes they committed when they invaded parallel universes are too numerous to list."

She loosened the strings. "This beast, even a single glance at it makes me feel disgusted!"

A divine light pierced through the strings, penetrating the vast darkness and annihilating countless minions spawned by the serpent demon, heading straight for Odin.

Odin remained calm, holding his staff-like weapon forward to block the divine light, but his expression changed slightly, and blood seeped from between his fingers.

"Hmph, if parents are unambitious, their children will inevitably resort to some underhanded tactics to strive for success. What's so strange about that?"

He coldly retorted, "For such laughable and vulgar matters, you have failed His Majesty's good intentions and given up your last chance at life!"

Behind Odin, a massive shadowy figure with demonic markings rose to its feet.

The serpent demon retained its human form, but its head was covered in dragon-like horns and its body was covered in serpentine patterns. Its heavy armor rippled in the shadows.

"You're unwilling to betray your former stance? Very well, then try to continue resisting me, or be killed by me."

Li Qingzhao, already severely injured, was no longer enough to arouse the snake demon's full interest.

His gaze encompassed not only the planet where Li Qingzhao was, but also the legions in the distant starry sky attempting to cover the retreat.

"Unfortunately, this time there will only be the second outcome for you!!!"

The moment the serpent demon waved its hand, roars and laughter, scattered and mixed together, emanated from every corner of the vast shadow.

All the serpent demon's forces had long been assimilated by the serpent demon's power, and were completely unharmed by this terrifying demonic sound; on the contrary, they were even slightly enhanced by it.

The music rose instantly, blocking most of the demonic sound, but a small portion of its power, like a river, flowed around the planet where Li Qingzhao was, shattering space and time, and rushing into the distance.

"That devil..."

"Has he made progress since his injuries healed last time?"

Li Qingzhao's clear eyes turned red, and her pearly teeth were stained with blood. The pain from the essence of the Great Dao further fueled her determination to die.

"What a pity, I haven't found Yue Xiaomei's Dao Fruit fragment yet..."

In the next instant, all the strings vibrated and broke one by one, and the rare divine sound formed thousands of mad moons flying, and the demonic sound was cut off for a moment.

But when the serpent demon swung its arms, the shadows surged away, and all the music and moonlight could only struggle and be compressed, losing less than 60% of the magic power.

The remaining demonic power instantly formed a monstrous wave, catching up with the retreating allied forces.

Not only were Sun Ce's troops within the range of the crashing waves, but Liu Bei and Zhang Jiao's armies were also in the area struck by the first wave.

Sun Ce and his troops began to operate, their energy surging to the heavens, while Liu Bei's army was filled with all sorts of dragon and snake-like auras, flying endlessly.

"Heaven is dead..."

Zhang Jiao and his followers raised their staffs together, leading their army of mages to unleash their most powerful spells.

This time, however, as they recited this unwavering belief, they also felt somewhat powerless.

The Azure Heaven is dead, but the peaceful Yellow Heaven world has not yet been established.

Not only that, but this time even the heavens themselves will be destroyed, turning all the worlds into ghost realms, right?

"May Heaven rise!!"

A roar of burning mana swept across the starry sea.

Just then, the sky suddenly cracked open.

Whether it was an illusion or not, they seemed to see a hand pressing down and grasping the golden mirror in a far, unfathomable place outside this multiverse.

In a flash, the hand disappeared, replaced by a vacuum dragon with flying scales and claws, carrying the stars, biting the precious mirror, crossing the boundary sea, and soaring and crashing towards it!

Whether Cangtian is dead or not, we don't know.

But for Huang Tian, ​​it wouldn't be a problem to use the Haotian Mirror as a cameo.

A demonic dragon crosses the sea, and the Jade Emperor descends upon the world!
