Global Dungeon: I Can See the Status Bar

In the end, Celestial Star Sect still couldn’t save all the mortals.

Facing the beast tide that was like an ocean, the cultivators, who were mostly skilled in individual combat, were at a huge disadvantage without relying on arrays.

In terms of individual combat power, human cultivators with magical treasures, talismans, elixirs, spells, arrays, and other aids were generally stronger than demon beasts of the same level.

But...

This was not a 1v1 arena solo, nor was it a step-by-step academy tournament.

Where is the fairness and equal match in a real battlefield?

Aside from Celestial Star Child, who trapped the Red Tiger Demon King, everyone from Nascent Soul down to Qi Refining had to face opponents several times their number, and the further down the ranks you go, the more exaggerated the number becomes.

A Qi Refining Cultivator even had to face dozens of demon beasts of the same level at once.

At the level where cultivators have insufficient mana, incomplete equipment, and lack of spells, the individual combat power between demon beasts and human cultivators was often reversed!

Facing such a massive beast tide, mid and low-tier Qi Refining cultivators were even less capable than the ordinary martial artists who trained their bodies and strength.

Standing in front of the beast tide, they fell like harvested wheat, batch after batch, in an instant.

In such a meat grinder-like slaughter, even cultivators who appeared like Immortal Gods in the eyes of mortals were nothing more than ants.

The cultivators of Celestial Star City and the martial artists from the outer city sped up their actions as much as possible.

Many cultivators not originally from Celestial Star City spontaneously assisted the mortals, but the sparse number of cultivators seemed like a cup of water on a burning cart compared to the massive mortal crowd.

After leaving behind over a hundred thousand corpses and at the cost of four Golden Core cultivators and twenty-three Foundation Establishment cultivators dead, the remaining hundreds of thousands of mortals successfully retreated into Celestial Star City.

The outer city by now was already a mess.

You couldn’t find an intact house, nor a complete corpse.

Only the sticky blood covered the ground, and the thick scent of blood permeated the city.

Countless cultivators voluntarily climbed the city walls, holding magical treasures, to fight alongside the cultivators and martial artists of Celestial Star City against the invading enemies.

Everyone understood the principle of ”when the lips are gone, the teeth feel the cold.”

If it were demon cultivators attacking, there might still be room for negotiation after the city falls.

But now, it was the Demon Race attacking!

The Demon Race with humans on their menu!

Once the city falls, it will be a massacre!

The merchants in the city didn’t care about their losses and immediately donated all their inventory for the use of the cultivators defending the city walls.

Hiding things at a time like this would be truly foolish.

There’s no point in earning a living if you can’t live to spend it!

After contracting the defense line, the Celestial Star Array finally began normal operation, and the Old City Lord no longer needed to divide his attention to control the situation below, allowing him to focus on fighting against the two Demon Kings.

The seven strongest Golden Core cultivators combined with the array, secretly aligned with the number of the Beidou Seven Stars, fully operating the Celestial Star Array, absorbing Starlight Power to condense Po Jun Divine Edge, slaying the invading enemies.

On the low city walls of Celestial Star City, colorful spells and innate divine techniques clashed, almost painting the sky in seven colors, with deafening roars continuously echoing.

The illusory walls formed by starlight blocked most attacks outside the city, while the city’s reserve of spirit stones rapidly dwindled.

Lu Wenwu saw it all from his small courtyard.

His Divine Sense was enough to cover the entire city.

The last time he saw such a scene was when the Superhuman Federation faced the Insect Race.

Equally dense, equally fearless.

Such a state was abnormal.

Even with the power of hatred supporting them, it still wasn’t right.

The Demon Race was just a general term, amalgamated from various races classified as demon beasts, and fundamentally not a single group.

Even when human cultivators weren’t hunting, there was still mutual hunting and conflict among demon beasts; they weren’t monolithic.

To say that such a group and humans have a blood-sea enmity that demands a pound of flesh even at the cost of annihilation is sheer nonsense.

They’re not Soul Beasts, who must die as long as a Soul Master lives.

Lu Wenwu retracted his Divine Sense, trying to enhance precision as much as possible.

Soon, he noticed something peculiar in the eyes of the demon beasts.

Except for the three Demon Kings fighting in the sky, the remaining demon beasts all carried a faint, almost imperceptible red in their eyes.

As if a catalyst was created from moonlight mixed with Blood Evil Qi and other materials, capable of driving these demon beasts into a bloodthirsty frenzy, making them fearless as if they were zombies, and even partly immune to pain due to intense excitement.

”Underground?”

Lu Wenwu subconsciously glanced at his feet but saw nothing.

The Eye of True Sight can analyze many things, but its function definitely does not include penetration.

In other words, only what Lu Wenwu sees with his eyes can be analyzed by the Eye of True Sight, which is why he speculates here.

With the Celestial Star Array and countless spell lights acting as a barrier, no demon beast could breach the blockade for now.

The defensive line of Celestial Star City was stable for the time being.

Just as Lu Wenwu pondered, a man suddenly appeared outside the door, gently knocking on it.

”Pardon my intrusion; I hope the True Monarch will forgive me.”

The voice was very familiar; it was the Vice Tower Master of the Celestial Secret Tower from before.

Lu Wenwu’s spiritual power surged, deactivating the defensive array and concealing array, causing the door to open automatically, revealing the person’s somewhat anxious face.
