The beast horde once again lost the King Beast. Without its command, the horde plunged into complete chaos.
They possessed considerable intelligence and knew that continuing the fight would only lead to their deaths.
Without the constraint of the King Beast, there was no way they would fight to the death.
Very quickly, a few Star Beasts withdrew from the battle, retreating to the edge before swiftly escaping to the distance.
Their actions naturally caught the eye of the nearby Star Beasts, but none stopped them.
The other Star Beasts just watched quietly, having thoughts of escape themselves, but previously, any fleeing Star Beast was doomed to be killed by High-Rank Star Beasts.
As time passed, those few fleeing Star Beasts still lived and continued their escape, disappearing entirely from the sight of the other Star Beasts.
"They successfully escaped."
This was the thought shared by all Star Beasts.
Those few successful escapees were like pouring a ladle of cold water into boiling oil, instantly stirring up chaos.
Soon, many Star Beasts grew eager to flee, exchanging glances before escaping in different directions.
Not long after, these Star Beasts too successfully left the battlefield.
As time continued, increasingly more Star Beasts fled, making the horde even more chaotic.
Only then did the High-Rank Star Beasts realize the severity of the situation, roaring out threats, trying to use past intimidation to keep the Star Beasts fighting.
But Zhang Tianlong would not let them succeed, immediately dispatching Emperor-level Guardian Beasts to restrict them.
The threats of the High-Rank Star Beasts did have some effect, but the horde quickly found that they were merely threats without any real punishment, and since they were barely protecting themselves, they wouldn't be able to manage the rest.
Thinking of this, those Star Beasts intent on fleeing began to act again.
No matter how those High-Rank Star Beasts roared, they did not stop.
No surprises here, they successfully escaped as well.
Success stories naturally caused quite a stir.
In just a few minutes, thousands of Star Beasts successfully escaped.
Zhang Tianlong and others were happy to see this, as the scales of victory tilted towards them; the fleeing Star Beasts could no longer form combat power, posing no threat to the Alliance.
Once everything settles, it wouldn't be too late to deal with them.
Seeing the situation lost, more Star Beasts fled.
Zhang Tianlong added fuel to the fire, assuring that those who surrender or flee would not be harmed.
With the Beast Master translating, the horde fell into complete disarray, while the High-Rank Star Beasts were restrained, and the human side promised not to harm them, none were foolish enough to stay and fight.
After all, in the Star Beast world, it's survival of the fittest, without any so-called beliefs or faith.
"Roar"
Suddenly, a low growl came from the horde as a massive Abyssal Demon Wolf swiftly fled, followed by hundreds of its kin.
This Abyssal Demon Wolf was an Emperor-level Peak existence, leading the escape. Other Star Beasts that hesitated soon joined the fleeing group.
What seemed like a bitter battle brought an unexpectedly sudden turn.
Without the horde's restraint, the remaining High-Rank Star Beasts inevitably faced being exhausted to death.
Looking at the ground littered with corpses, everyone showed a relieved smile.
After this battle, the Star Beasts were utterly defeated; the Emperor-level Star Beasts perished, leaving only a few Emperor-levels, drastically reduced in numbers, some even wiped out entirely, never able to threaten humans again.
In the crowd, someone shouted loudly, "We won."
At this, voices of agreement rang out, echoing like an ocean wave through the forest, alarming the birds to flee.
At that moment, in the Star Beasts' lair, a black Secret Realm entrance appeared, rippling. Then, a creature with a dragon head and human body emerged from the portal.
It leaped and landed in the mountain belly, surrounded by silence as the wind carried a strong scent of blood into its nose.
It immediately released Star Power to perceive the surroundings, quickly discovering the scene in the distant forest.
Currently, in the Time God's legacy palace, cracks appeared on a white cocoon, followed by a white jade-like hand reaching out.
The jade hand shook slightly, and the cocoon fractured inch by inch, revealing a fox-faced maiden slowly emerging.
The Fox Girl, donned in a white gauze dress, had a graceful figure and touched her furry cheeks, unwittingly recalling the image of that young man.
She waved a hand, and a white radiance flashed across her fox face.
After the white light faded, her fox face transformed into an indescribable beauty.
She gently caressed her extraordinary visage, showing satisfaction, her lips curling slightly in thought, her feet stepping lightly, and her form vanishing instantly.
At this time, in a secret realm filled with blood, a scarlet-gold giant ape sat among a sea of blood, surrounded by dense dark-red runes.
"Roar"
A sudden roar erupted from the blood sea as the scarlet-gold figure in the blood lake jerked open its eyes, a golden radiance flickering within.
The blood sea boiled and exploded, with a scarlet-gold figure shooting forth.
In the midst of a scarlet-gold hair tower stood a robust iron man above the blood sea.
He gazed into the distance, mumbling, "Master, I've obtained the Blood Ancestor's legacy, I will defeat the Destruction Dragon Emperor." Saying so, he charged out of the secret realm.
In the Master of Undead's legacy palace, a giant ant was buried under a skull mountain, with its antennae swaying like a steel whip, its insect armor suddenly shattering.
At this moment, the skull mountain began to collapse, the skeletal remains turning into scattered bone dust, seemingly summoned towards the broken insect armor.
A short time later, the bone dust gathered into a humanoid shape, forming limbs and facial features, with a pair of bony antennae atop its head.
Finally, the bone dust morphed into a simple-faced youth.
"Master, I have arrived." The youth murmured, turning into a ray of light before vanishing.
Inside the Star Beasts' lair, the dragon-headed figure emitted an angry dragon roar, the terrifying sonic wave causing the mountain to shake continuously.
The sonic wave transmitted through the mountain afar, reaching Chu Chen and others clearly.
Some lower-realm Beast Masters even painfully covered their ears.
"What is this? Is there something terrifying in their lair?" Zhang Tianlong exclaimed.
Upon hearing this, Chu Chen's expression turned sour. Just from the roar alone, it caused such a commotion, what kind of terrifying existence was behind this voice?
The Star Beasts had been crushed, and the one appearing now is likely none other than the long-missing Destruction Dragon Emperor.
It seems to have completed its legacy, becoming the Divine sought after by all Star Beasts, and moreover, it's a revered High-level Gods.
Chu Chen's mind immediately came to a conclusion; the only thought was to flee. As far and as quickly as possible.
After all, there isn't a single Divine on our side.
"It's the Destruction Dragon Emperor." Chu Chen said solemnly.
"What, the Destruction Dragon Emperor? Has it achieved the Divine status?"
Chu Chen nodded gravely, "Indeed, everyone scatter and escape."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Tianlong decisively shook his head, "No, we can't flee; you must return to the Alliance immediately, we'll hold it off."
"How can this be, everyone must scatter and flee, else none will escape."
