Chapter 279: Asura Clan
"It seems I have no choice left?" After hesitating for a moment, Sun Zhe slowly raised his head and looked at Xing in front of him, speaking with a hint of helplessness.
Hearing Sun Zhe's words, Xing instead smiled.
"In fact, this was already destined when you perfected the Supreme Battle Body. Unless you plan to never leave our War Clan's territory for the rest of your life, you truly have no way to refuse. Actually, this may not be a bad thing for you; at least you can gain the support of our entire War Clan, which is something that most people cannot even dream of."
"Can I ask one more question?" Ignoring the benefits mentioned by Xing, Sun Zhe suddenly fixed his gaze on Xing, his expression serious as he asked.
"Go ahead," Xing replied in his usual tone, standing quietly on the Training Ground. Under the sunlight, his long shadow did not waver even slightly.
"Why can't so many strong members of the War Clan leave this space?" Sun Zhe's gaze sharpened as he took a step forward, looking intently at Xing and asking each word deliberately.
"Mm?"
Xing furrowed his brow, and his black eyes suddenly darkened. Two brilliant beams of intense divine light shot out instantly, enveloping the entire Training Ground with an unimaginable immense pressure. In an instant, the Training Ground was separated from the world, forming another independent space. The overwhelming force pressed down so heavily that even Sun Zhe could not help but take two steps back, struggling to withstand this pressure.
"Where did you hear these words?" His voice was icy cold, devoid of any emotional tone, like the voice of the earth itself, carrying an unimaginable will. Even with Sun Zhe's strong willpower, he couldn't help but feel a chilling pressure.
"This isn't something anyone told me; it's just my own speculation. The War Clan is one of humanity's main fighting forces but has been hidden in this space for countless years without emerging. Now that the Demon Clan has appeared in the Nine Continents World, yet the War Clan sends someone like me who has just reached Emperor Level as a representative—this undoubtedly shows that the War Clan is willing but unable to send out a capable powerhouse. Am I wrong?"
Xing was indeed the renowned super war god from Ancient Times. Since Sun Zhe began his cultivation, he had never felt such immense pressure before. Struggling against this weight that felt like it exceeded ten thousand pounds, Sun Zhe barely managed to finish speaking while retreating from the center of the square to its edge. A trace of blood leaked from the corner of his mouth, which was still due to his training in the Supreme Battle Body!
The deep, abyss-like eyes stared intently at Sun Zhe for a long moment, as if trying to discern the truth behind his words. After a while, Xing let out a slow sigh, dissipating the immense pressure he had exerted. In an instant, he appeared beside Sun Zhe, a surge of divine power flowing into Sun Zhe's body, instantly healing his hidden injuries.
"I'm sorry, I was too nervous," Xing said after a moment, a hint of fatigue flashing across his expression.
"It's... it's nothing..."
Sun Zhe had not expected this arrogant Ancient War God to apologize to him. If Xing had attacked him, he could have understood that, but this attitude left him somewhat at a loss.
However, Xing paid no mind to Sun Zhe's words. His gaze drifted toward the distant, endless void, and within his jet black eyes flickered an unprecedented complexity of colors. He slowly spoke,
"You are now considered one of the War Clan. It’s fine to tell you these things, but you must remember to keep this matter confidential!"
"The Nine Continents World and the separated Eight Directions Worlds belong to the same dimensional layer. However, in the endless Void, there is not just the Nine Continents Mainland; the so-called Demon Realm is merely one of them. In addition to the Demon Realm, there is actually another dimension that has begun to pay attention to our Nine Continents Mainland, and those from that dimension call themselves Asura!"
"Asura?" Sun Zhe frowned; he had never heard of such a race.
"That's right, they are called Asura. Every member of their race possesses extraordinary talents and is born to be an excellent warrior. What I mean is not that they are physically strong like us from the War Clan, but rather that they are filled with Killing Intent and have cold personalities. Even if your blade strikes them, they seem unaffected. Moreover, their numbers are vast, posing a threat to us in the Nine Continents that is not inferior to that of the Demon Realm."
"Does this Asura Clan have any connection to this space?" Sun Zhe felt a tightening in his chest and immediately asked. He hadn't expected one wave of trouble to follow another; if what Xing said was true, then the Nine Continents Mainland was indeed in grave danger. After all, no matter how strong the Nine Continents Mainland was, it could not withstand attacks from two dimensions.
"This space is built upon the Summit of the Five Mountains; it essentially utilizes the power of the five divine mountains to set up an enormous sealing formation. The reason our War Clan has remained hidden for countless years is precisely to perfect this sealing formation. Now that it has reached its final stage, once it is completed, those from the Asura Clan will be unable to step into our Nine Continents World even a single step. We will also be able to focus entirely on dealing with those from the Demon Realm."
At this point, two terrifying glints shot from Xing's eyes. The War Clan was inherently a warlike race; having them hide here was almost worse than taking their lives. If it were not for the survival of all humanity in the Nine Continents, he would never have chosen to remain hidden here.
"Then I will stay here as well. Although my strength is not strong, at least I can contribute," Sun Zhe said with a serious expression, speaking without hesitation.
"No, although you are now one of us in the War Clan, the power you cultivate is somewhat different from ours. Your spiritual energy cannot merge into the great formation. Moreover, with the demon clan invading the Nine Continents World, our War Clan needs a representative to clearly state our position. You are originally from the Blade Domain, and your words can convince most people, so going to the Nine Continents is your best choice."
Sun Zhe was not one to be overly sentimental. Hearing this from Xing, he immediately understood the situation and nodded seriously.
"By the way, Senior Xing, I have a beast companion named Jingjing. Is it also within the War Clan?" Sun Zhe suddenly remembered what Bai Qi had said and asked.
"That creature of yours is indeed within our clan. When Chiyou returned from outside, he happened to see it being chased and brought it back with him. If you want to see it, I can take you there right now!" Xing replied without paying much attention.
