Cosmic Trading System-Chapter 1345 - 1042 Covering the Retreat_2

Chapter 1345: Chapter 1042: Covering the Retreat_2 Chapter 1345: Chapter 1042: Covering the Retreat_2 Moreover, whether the other party could escape was still up for debate.

The formation space was undoubtedly being watched by the high ranks of their empire, and these people leaving the formation would inevitably be targeted by the empire’s powerhouses. The Spirit Great World was neither too small nor too big, where could those upper-class cultivators of the Divine Realm escape to when pursued by many from the empire’s Peak Divine Realm?

Perhaps, they wouldn’t last as long outside the formation compared to within it, and leaving could lead to a swifter death.

Thus, there was even less reason for them to prevent the others from leaving.

Thinking of this, some of the zodiac beasts gave the Blue Lotus God Monarch in another formation a glance.

They couldn’t help but show disdain, even considering him a strong contender among the Innate Divine Race of the Peak Divine Realm who could take on two or three opponents at once. Yet now, he had been entangled with an upper-class Divine Realm cultivator for so long and could not break free.

Wouldn’t the Blue Lotus God Monarch bear some responsibility if those upper-class Divine Realm Ghost Practitioners escaped?

In their hearts, they looked down on such a traitor like the Blue Lotus God Monarch, especially now when he appeared so useless.

Even now, they were somewhat angry with the Blue Lotus God Monarch for being entangled by an upper-class Divine Realm for so long; if he had come to support them from the start, they wouldn’t have ended up in such a sorry state, and perhaps their four fallen companions would have survived.

Under those circumstances, the current situation might be completely different.

What a waste.

Thinking this, they each cursed in their hearts.

The remaining strongest leader of the Innate Divine Race couldn’t even rally his subordinates.

Otherwise, if the Blue Lotus God Monarch and the upper-class Divine Realm had helped them, wouldn’t the situation be better?

“Blue Lotus God Monarch, we’re all burning our origin forces, why aren’t you? As a figure of the Peak Divine Realm, you’re taking so long to deal with an upper-class Divine Realm. Could it be you only pretended to join the Acquired Divine Race while your heart still leans toward the Innate Divine Race, and now you’re intentionally letting them escape?” Suddenly, a massive Snake, striking at Lin Yun, fixed its cold eyes on the Blue Lotus God Monarch within the formation and said ominously.

“Origin force is not something to burn recklessly. If you want to burn yours, that’s your business! To think that the Acquired Divine Race’s zodiac beasts, known as the first group of the empire, are being routed by two from the Peak Divine Realm, and some from the upper-class. It seems the Acquired Divine Race’s zodiac beasts are not so impressive after all!” the Blue Lotus God Monarch glanced at the other party and replied indifferently.

As he spoke, he only hastened his attacks against Nantian Stone without any significant change.

“Nantian, it’s not too late to stop now; I can lead you into the Acquired Divine Race’s empire myself. If you persist in your delusions, don’t blame me for not caring about the past,” the Blue Lotus God Monarch then turned towards Nantian Stone and spoke again.

“Don’t expect me to betray my race like you did!” Nantian Stone’s eyes were bloodshot as he roared in response.

He had also seen the situation on the neighboring battlefield.

Seeing Lin Yun and two Peak Divine Realm Ghost Practitioners holding the rear so the Heaven God King and other Divine Realm Ghost Practitioners could leave, his pain intensified.

How could he not see that, this way, the chances of Lin Yun falling here were greater?

Lin Yun was the reincarnation of their Innate Divine Race’s crown prince. Despite his unwitting involvement in the trap, he was now at risk of falling here.

In the end, the crown prince still thought of covering the retreat for his fellow comrades and the Heaven God King of their Innate Divine Race.

What a magnificent act it was!

Before the great war between the Innate Divine Race and the Acquired Divine Race, he hadn’t interacted much with the prince from his previous life; but their recent encounters had made him realize that this crown prince was truly great and worthy of their veneration.

He was the hope of their Innate Divine Race, that’s their great fortune.

And yet… due to him, this hope, this venerable crown prince, was going to fall.

At this moment, his heart was so filled with regret it felt like it was bleeding.

And now, at this moment, the Blue Lotus God Monarch wanted him to join the Acquired Divine Race as well? To become a traitor together? What a joke!

“Crown Prince, I, Nantian Stone, have wronged you. If there’s an afterlife, I shall repay you as a horse or ox. Please, escape now…” Nantian Stone bellowed out loud.

“Hum!”

As he roared, Nantian Stone charged towards the Blue Lotus God Monarch, and at the same time, a terrifying aura flashed around his body as he prepared to self-destruct.

“Nantian Stone, do you really wish to seek death?” The Blue Lotus God Monarch’s face changed drastically as he shouted angrily.

He had said so much to Nantian Stone earlier, and had always been merciful towards Nantian Stone’s subordinates, because he wanted to subdue Nantian Stone. As an Innate member of the Divine Clan entering the empire of the Acquired Divine Race, he was bound to face ostracism. At this time, an upper-level cultivator from the Innate Divine Race was still very useful to him.

Now it seems that the other party has been persistently misguided.

At the core battlefield.

Lin Yun looked up and saw this scene, his expression calm.

Currently, they could hardly ensure their own safety, let alone worry about Nantian Stone’s safety.

He had long realized that Nantian Stone had probably been truly deceived by the Blue Lotus God Monarch and was genuinely inclined to side with him.

But some things, once done, are done.

This matter, after all, was caused by Nantian Stone. So if the other party chose to self-destruct and perish, one might consider it as the price paid for their actions!

“If I can find your soul in the Netherworld, I might lead you there…” Lin Yun murmured to himself.

After that, Lin Yun turned his head to look in another direction.

The Heaven God King and the other thirty upper-level ghost practitioners had left in that direction.

This location was deliberately chosen by him, not far from here was a passage to the Netherworld.

In a short amount of time, the Heaven God King and those thirty upper-level ghost practitioners would be able to enter the Netherworld through it.

It is unclear if the other powerhouses from the Acquired Divine Race’s empire will appear to stop them in time.

“I hope they can safely enter the Netherworld…” Lin Yun sighed softly in his heart and thought to himself.

“Boom——”

On the other side, Nantian Stone finally succeeded in self-destructing. The terrible force made the Blue Lotus God Monarch, who failed to retreat far enough, quite disheveled. The space of the formation where they were located also suffered significant tearing.

“So ruthless…”

The Zodiac Beasts saw this and their expressions changed slightly.

With their powerful life force, even after a terrible beating, the likelihood of surviving was still very high.

But self-destruction was almost certain death.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, they would not choose to do so.

Yet, in such a short time, that upper-level cultivator had done so, even though surrendering could have allowed him to live, and to live well.

“Madman, a real madman…”

Some Zodiac Beasts whispered to themselves.

Seeing that the battle was not going their way, they immediately began to burn their life essence. They saw themselves as tough individuals, but compared to the other, they were nothing.

“Letting him hold back earlier, still wanting to subdue him? Now, all is lost!”

“Claimed to be the strongest leader among the remaining Innate Divine Race, just to recruit subordinates, yet his subordinates prefer to self-destruct rather than follow. What a failure!”

Some Zodiac Beasts looked at the very disheveled Blue Lotus God Monarch with cold smiles in their hearts, disdaining the thought.

“Blue Lotus God Monarch, Nantian Stone has fallen. Don’t you hurry over here to help us deal with these guys?” Snake spoke to the Blue Lotus God Monarch with a grave voice.

After all, this affair was a trap set by the Blue Lotus God Monarch. No matter what, he played no small part in the merit.

But if they could capture this prince of the Innate Divine Race before the powerhouses from their empire arrived to assist, then they wouldn’t need to share much merit with those coming to the rescue.

Acquired Divine Race members all broke through to the Divine Realm from ordinary cultivators, coming from all over, from a variety of races, their composition chaotic. Naturally, within the empire of the Acquired Divine Race, there was also very intense competition. With limited resources, the greater the merit, the more resources they would obtain.

“My task was only to lure out the culprit who slayed the Dragon, and nowhere in my mission was I asked to make a move against the Dragon’s slayer!” the Blue Lotus God Monarch said coldly, looking at the scene without making a move.
