Nobilis of War novel Chapter 1549

This news made Darren and the others uneasy.

The land of the humans was exposed and the other races had already mobilized for their attack. The beginning of darkness was upon them. If war broke out, whether the human race won or lost, the result would be tragic.

Only a master like Heath would be able to stop the outbreak of war. There was at least some comfort in that Heath and the human ancestor would be able to protect the human race if war was to ensue.

Now though, only the ancestor and some ascetic cultivators remained guarding the human land. Once the top masters and ancestors of other races made their way here, the humans would definitely suffer a devastating blow.

"What should we do, Starry Sword? Should we inform Heath?" Even Lord Feng was not entirely sure of what sort of action they should take.

"No," Lord Starry Sword said flatly.

"Why not?" Darren asked confused. The human ancestor had asked them for help, why would Lord Starry Sword not want to tell Heath about this?

"The result will be the same whether Heath gets involved or not. The trials the human race is facing are not limited just to the attacks of the other races. What we really should be focused on holding off is the chief gods' spiritual senses," Lord Starry Sword said in response.

"I suppose that does make sense." Lord Feng nodded and continued, "Even so, we should still let Heath know of the ancestor's request. Let him make his own decision."

"Yes, that seems right," agreed Darren. "Heath is not just the ancestor's student but his friend as well.

If he learns of this, it may affect his judgment and then he'll definitely decide to come back. But that's not the best option. If we stay here to help Darren go through the tribulation, the human race may yet survive, however slim the chance might be. This is our best option," Lord Starry Sword explained.

Both Lord Feng and the Great Witcher thought this seemed a reasonable approach.

As things stood, the human race's crisis could only be solved if Darren successfully survived the tribulation. The reason was quite simple. If Darren could survive, it would mean he must have found a way to avoid detection by the chief gods, and they would be unable to locate the real human land through their spiritual senses.

"Perhaps it is best if we do not tell Heath. After all, the situation is not optimistic here."

Lord Feng raised his head. Deep in the sky, thousands of projections of the Killing Chief God were already fighting the ascetic cultivators. A war like none before was taking place.

"Damn it! One of the projections is coming over!"

They noticed a lone golden chief god's projection had fled the battlefield and was making his way to where Darren and the others stood.

He growled with rage,

his dark gold eyes cold as ice.

He charged over with Darren set in his sights.

"Humph, does he seriously wish to insult us like this?"

Lord Feng snorted with derision and thrust his spear out.

Boom!

The violent spear intent collided with the chief god's projection, and they were soon locked in the heat of battle, exchanging tens of thousands of blows in a matter of split seconds. The destroyed space began vanishing under the god's power's pressure, turning into nothingness.

They had been fighting for a quarter of an hour now. Although Lord Feng was indeed powerful, he was still only a middle-level deputy god. It was not long before he was injured and defeated.

"Blood Killing Abyss," murmured the chief god's projection menacingly.

Killing intents spread out and instantly wrapped around Darren and the others.

Whoosh!

As soon as Lord Starry Sword brandished his sword, seventy-two Supreme Sword Intent Forms performed exquisitely perfect sword maneuvers and darted at the chief god's projection.

At the same time, Lord Starry Sword vanished.

Countless swords were floating in the void. The enormous power radiating was comparable to the Blood Killing Abyss released by the chief god's projection.

"Finley, now!" Lord Starry Sword shouted in a rage.

Boom!

Boom!

The swords and spears clanged at the same time, instantly surrounding the chief god's projection. The violent explosion that resulted was deafening, but the miserable screams of anguish could still be heard.

"Huh!" Darren was a little surprised. The cooperation between Lord Starry Sword and Lord Feng was incredible, a true wonder. Their combined fighting power was on par with that of a powerful ascetic cultivator.

The chief god's projection could no longer attack Darren now that he faced the barrage of Lord Feng and Lord Starry Sword's attacks.
