Eternal life begins with saving my clan

Moving through the death valley, the convoy was quiet, leaving only the sound of the giant's heavy footsteps.

After Su Yen killed the two prideful spirits, and the soldier captured by the demonic vine escaped by cutting off the vine with a new dagger, the group became more vigilant and moved through the valley.

Now, the valley had become deserted with a few skeletons left behind; as for the rest, they had all decayed into dust.

With what happened to one of the soldiers, with his weapon rendered useless, Su Yen had allowed the soldiers to take one appropriate weapon from what they had looted.

Equipped with Grade-6 weapons and above, the fighting capability of the soldiers rose to another level.

Coming out of the valley, they were confronted by a city in ruins.

In front of the city was a massive skeletal beast. The aura from the beast made everyone inside the convoy suck in a cold breath.

It was so suffocating that the only thing working properly in their bodies was their Pagoda Bloodline.

Their bloodline was running at full speed, diffusing the pressure from the beast.

"Huh! What type of beast is this?" Zimo thought out loud, wiping the beads of sweat from his forehead.

Just then, the Humvee defense system came to life, blaring continuously.

'Multiple threats detected'

'Threat-type: Soul Form'

'Threat-Level: Category-6'

From the ruined city, thousands of illusory soldiers rushed out, pointing their weapons at the convoy.

"How is this possible?!" a soldier asked in shock.

This was the first time they saw human souls existing outside their bodies.

Even though they were shocked by the illusory soldiers, Zimo's command woke them up from their trance.

"Gear up. We're confronting them head-on."

Quickly, the soldiers jumped out with their armor activated. They formed four squads and rushed toward the soul soldiers.

Even though there were only twenty of them, their momentum was no different from thousands of soldiers.

Swoosh!

They disappeared from their spot, leaving tens of afterimages behind and appeared before the soul soldiers.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The sound of explosions echoed on the battlefield as the soul soldiers exploded into balls of light.

In less than thirty seconds, half of the soul soldiers had been killed, but the bizarre thing was they kept pouring out of the ruined city.

Just as Zimo and his men were killing the soul soldiers, Su Yen appeared beside the Mountain Giant in the sky.

"What do you think?"

"Y-Your Majesty…" The Giant was stunned when he found Su Yen standing beside his head and paused for a moment to collect his thoughts.

"During the ancient war, I think I saw something like this," he said.

"Oh, really?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." He nodded. "There is a certain demonic race that used this against their enemies. They harvested millions of people through some ancient formation and controlled their souls using some kind of formation."

"I see… Can they only control humans, or can they control other races as well?" Su Yen asked, turning to look at him.

"They can control any race as long as they fall into their demonic formation."

"That's good to know… Do you know what this race looks like?"

"Hmm…. No, Your Majesty." He shook his head.

"That's okay… Fight that beast."

Hmm?

The giant turned to look at Su Yen, but he was long gone. With slight confusion on his face, he turned to look at the still skeleton and wondered why he should fight the skeleton.

Besides, he was no match for the skeleton. Just as he was wondering what Su Yen wanted to do, the still beast skeleton began to come to life.

"Captain! The beast skeleton is coming to life!"

"What should we do?"

"Should we engage?"

Listening to his men, Zimo raised his head and looked at the beast skeleton coming back to life and thought for a moment.

"Don't engage. Continue with the mission." He shouted and disappeared from his spot, destroying the tens of soul soldiers right in front of him.

Howl!

The massive beast skeleton that looked like a dragon had a fiery red glow in its sockets. It stared at the humans and opened its bony mouth.

Thuds

The ground trembled with each of its steps as it rushed toward Zimo and his men.

"Captain!"

"Shut the fuck up!" Zimo shouted in anger.

Bang!

Right then, a massive stone landed on the skeleton's head, and a loud growl escaped from its mouth.

It turned its bony head in the direction of the attack. It saw the massive giant rushing toward it and growled.

Instantly, it abandoned the petty humans and rushed toward the Mountain Giant.

Boom!

The two massive creatures collided, and a massive cloud of dust rose to the sky.

Experience new tales on empire

Inside the dust, a deep grunt echoed with the sound of claws and fists hitting each other.

Zimo and his men looked at the Giant battling the beast skeleton for a moment and sucked in a cold breath before they turned to their enemies.

"Die!" they shouted and began another round of massacre.

While this was going on, Su Yen had already appeared at the center of the city ruins.

He looked at the ruins but could not find where the soul soldiers were coming from.

It was like they appeared out of thin air. However, he knew better.

His ethereal white robe swayed gently in the absence of air. Looking at the destruction that went on for thousands of meters, he realized the ancient battle was more terrifying than everyone thought.

As he was walking through the ruins, trying to find out the source of the soul soldiers, he arrived in front of an ordinary pool.

It was a dirty pool with claw and weapon marks around it.

Su Yen did not think too much of the pool and prepared to depart when his danger sense picked up an incoming threat.

He creased his brows and tried to find out where the source of danger was coming from but could not.

His danger sense was sensing danger all around him.

"How is this possible?!" he thought out loud.

Just then, the surrounding space trembled and everything flipped over. And behold, the ruined city was gone.
