Li Mu clearly felt that the ancestors of the six major clans were a little nervous at this moment, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
The giant dragon-eating ape struggled and stared blankly at Bai Jun the G.o.d of War, but it soon became as fierce as a wild beast. It got up and rushed toward Bai Jun the G.o.d of War.
The giant demonic corpse beat the gra.s.s s.h.i.+eld with its stone ax and charged at Bai Jun the G.o.d of War.
The nine-headed divine bird hovered hesitantly and chirped in the air, as if it had remembered something.
Bai Jun the G.o.d of War said in a sad and angry tone, “Rock, you once followed me to fight in the Star River and defend our clan. You were the bravest warrior under my command. Do you still remember the drum beats of the Dark Yellow Army…?”
Those words were for the giant dragon-eating ape.
Just a few moments ago, he sent the giant dragon-eating ape flying. The giant dragon-eating ape fell on the ground ape with a blank, confused look in its eyes. There were strange black runes on its body, wrapped around its fur. In great pain, it became ferocious again.
“Li Tian, my adopted son, you once cleaved the mountains and brought down the stars. You were known as the number one warrior of the Dark Yellow Army in the Ziwei Star Zone. Even though you are dead, do you still have the will to fight? How can a warrior be controlled by betrayal and dishonor? Wake up!”
Bai Jun the G.o.d of War blocked the stone ax with his long halberd and shouted at the blue-faced corpse with a head.
The blue-faced corpse remained unmoved. It roared, spewed out black mist from its mouth and nose and brandished its ax to fight, but in the end, it was sent flying.
The nine-headed divine bird looked at Bai Jun the G.o.d of War and cried crisply.
The ancestors of the six major clans all looked nervous.
They knew very well how terrifying the strength of Bai Jun the G.o.d of War was. He was a real invincible G.o.d in the Ziwei Star Zone, who had overwhelmingly defeated all the enemies. At least he was someone that they could not resist. They dared to show up here today because he was already dead and had only a little of the magical power that he used to have. If he really came back to life, it would be a disaster and a nightmare for them.
However, they found something new after observing him for a moment.
“No, that’s not right. He hasn’t really come back to life. It’s just an obsession,” said the ancestor of the Demonic Snake Abyss.
“Exactly. They are just some fragments of his memory. The memory is stored in his body instead of his mind. The bodies of deities are really shocking.” The ancestor of the Blue Wave Clan also calmed down, breathing a sigh of relief.
As long as the “dead G.o.d” did not come back to “life” suddenly, everything would still be under their control.
However, Li Mu, who was standing on the blue mountain, felt inexplicably shocked.
“Judging from the words that Bai Jun the G.o.d of War suddenly said, the giant dragon-eating ape, the giant demonic corpse, and the nine-headed divine bird used to be his subordinates.
“In other words, those three fierce monsters are inextricably linked to the sinners and the Dark Yellow Army.”
The impression of them that Li Mu had suddenly changed.
When he looked at them again, he had a different feeling.
Unfortunately, the calls of Bai Jun the G.o.d of War could not awaken the past memories of the three demonic monsters.
Controlled by the ancestors of the six major clans with secret methods, they had lost their former glory and forgotten what happened in the past. They launched fatal attacks on their former commander-in-chief.
“I’m going to free all of you today.”
The tone of Bai Jun the G.o.d of War was tinged with sorrows from the ancient times.
He cut his palm with the black sword.
Red blood oozed out of his palm.
“Divine blood!”
The ancestor of the East Forest Clan looked expectant.
The other ancestors were also excited.
The blood of a real G.o.d was flowing in the body of Bai Jun the G.o.d of War. It contained the secrets of becoming a G.o.d, and it was something that they had been looking forward to for thousands of years.
The red blood seemed to have some kind of strange, mysterious power. The breathing of the ancestors of the six major clans became rapid unknowingly.
Bai Jun the G.o.d of War used his blood as the ink and one of his fingers as the pen. He dipped his finger in the blood and pressed it on the forehead of the giant dragon-eating ape coming at him.
Boom!
The mysterious power of runes broke out.
In an instant, the eyes of the giant dragon-eating ape became clear.
It suddenly woke up like a person who had been asleep for a long time. After a moment of shock, it saw Bai Jun the G.o.d of War in front of it. It suddenly became extremely excited and knelt down on one knee. “Commander-in-chief, what happened to me? How is the battle in the East Forest going? Please give the order. I will definitely…”
Its last memory was that fierce battle in the ancient times. It was severely injured and pa.s.sed out during an intense confrontation. It did not know what happened afterward.
Bai Jun the G.o.d of War didn’t say anything. He drew some runes with his blood and forcefully attached them to the head and chest of the giant demonic corpse charging at him.
The blue color disappeared from the giant demonic corpse’s face in an instant, and the fangs sticking out of the corners of its mouth retracted. It became a handsome young man. In a daze, he said, “Didn’t… didn’t I die in the battle? That despicable general of the East Forest Army plotted against me and cut off my head. I… Ah, father?”
When the young man saw Bai Jun the G.o.d of War, he was both overjoyed and surprised. He habitually got down on one knee.
Bai Jun the G.o.d of War flicked his fingers and shot a drop of divine blood into the open mouth of the nine-headed divine bird when it chirped.
The nine-headed divine bird trembled, and the nine-colored divine flames flickered. Then, as if it had broken free from some kind of restraint, it quickly flew over to Bai Jun the G.o.d of War. Finally, it turned into a small nine-colored bird and landed on his shoulder.
An incredible change in the situation had taken place.
Li Mu was overjoyed.
“Bai Jun the G.o.d of War has retrieved the three demonic monsters with his divine power. Does that mean that the situation has been reversed?”
Huangfu Chengdao, who was staying in the distance, was shocked when he saw what happened.
“This… what am I supposed to do? Something is not right…” He felt a little anxious.
Guan Zhen said, “Calm down. The ancestors are here. They had been implementing the scheme for thousands of years. How could an accident occur?”
In fact, when the ancestors of the six major clans saw that the giant dragon-eating ape, the giant demonic corpse, and the nine-headed divine bird were out of their control, they just felt slightly surprised, and they did not panic or feel greatly shocked.
“This is a good opportunity,” said the ancestor of the East Forest Clan.
The ancestor of the Blue Wave Clan smiled. “I’ve never expected that the divine blood would have such an effect. It’s really worth waiting for so long. Why don’t we recreate the past today? This way, maybe we can stimulate the divine blood and maximize its power.”
The ancestor of the Heavenly Deity Clan froze for a moment and then understood.
“Ha-ha, that’s a good idea. I haven’t seen such a touching scene in a long time. We can enrage Bai Jun the G.o.d of War by doing what we did in the past. His fighting spirit and anger will definitely maximize the power of his divine blood,” he said with a smile on his face.
“Commander-in-chief, what on earth is going on?” The giant dragon-eating ape felt like its mind was muddled and many memories were incomplete.
“Father, what age is it now? Is the Demon Extermination Troop still fighting?”
The young man transformed from the giant demonic corpse noticed something amiss. Back then, he was adopted by the G.o.d of War when he was a little boy. Later, with his peerless talents and braveness, he became the leader of the vanguard of the Demon Extermination Stroop of the Dark Yellow Army and fought battles everywhere.
As he remembered, the leader of the East Forest Army of the Demon Extermination Troop betrayed him, launched a surprise attack on him and chopped off his head.
“But now…?
“What’s going on?”
Before Bai Jun the G.o.d of War could answer him, screams and roars suddenly came from the sky.
Li Mu subconsciously raised his head and looked up at the sky.
A holographic image slowly unfurled in the air.
“That’s…” The young man, Li Tian, saw the image that flashed across the sky. It was the scene in which the leader of the East Forest Army plotted against him during a critical battle when he led the troops to wipe out the Extraterritorial Demons.
The leader of the East Forest Army at that time was the ancestor of the East Forest Clan. Thousands of years had pa.s.sed, but he looked the same as he did thousands of years ago. Back then, he launched a sneak attack from behind the young man and cut off the latter’s head with a machete.
“Ah…” The young man cried aloud.
It felt terrible to watch himself being plotted against and killed.
Then, he saw something even more despicable and cruel. The treacherous East Forest Army launched a surprise attack on the Demon Extermination Troop, an elite troop of the Dark Yellow Army. Many Dark Yellow Soldiers did not even have time to react before they were stabbed in the back and killed by the soldiers of the East Forest Army who used to fight side by side with them.
The sounds of shrill cries, angry roars, and curses rang out nonstop.
Bai Jun the G.o.d of War, Rock, Li Tian, and the nine-headed divine bird all raised their heads and looked at the sky. Their bodies were trembling with anger.
This was the famous “Betrayal of the East Forest Army” that happened a thousand years ago.
Caught off guard in the surprise attack, the soldiers of this vanguard of the Dark Yellow Army were completely wiped out by the soldiers of the East Forest Army, whom they regarded as comrades-in-arms.
However, that was just the beginning.
In the end, blood flowed like rivers, and dead bodies piled up like hills.
“d.a.m.n it! The East Forest Army betrayed us! If the Dark Yellow Army hadn’t rescued those despicable b.a.s.t.a.r.ds from the blades of Extraterritorial Demons, they would have been exterminated.”
Li Tian couldn’t help roaring angrily.
“Is that true?” He looked at Bai Jun the G.o.d of War.
What was displayed on the image in the sky was what happened after he was plotted against. He didn’t know it until now.
“Ha-ha-ha, of course it’s true. You are not the only one that died. Bai Jun the G.o.d of War also died. You’re just a group of dead people now. Everything that you saw on the image in the sky is recorded history.”
The ancestor of the East Forest Clan burst into laughter in the sky.
“Back then, you were a brave warrior of the Dark Yellow Army, but I killed you on the spot with a single slash. Then, I transformed your dead body into a demonic corpse for my own use. Ha-ha-ha.” He laughed wildly and smugly. Obviously, he was deliberately provoking his opponent.
Li Tian’s body began to tremble violently.
“That’s nothing. Just continue watching,” said the ancestor of the Heavenly Deity Clan.
Scenes were being displayed on the image in the sky.
“Ah, help. Mom, help me…” A little girl cried in horror. Before she could run to her mother, she saw her mother being cut in half by a green-armored warrior.
She burst into tears.
There were cries and curses all around.
The heads of hunchback old people were impaled on the tips of spears.
That place was a logistics base of the Dark Yellow Army. The troops of the Blue Wave Clan were ma.s.sacring. Their guards stationed there suddenly rebelled.
