After doing all that, Ye Lin walked out of the cave.
Little Red was constantly circling in the sky.
“Little Red, let’s go.”
After Ye Lin spoke, Little Red spread its wings, and its entire body rapidly grew larger. Ye Lin stepped onto Little Red’s back, then flew towards the battlefield.
Little Red's speed was much faster than Ye Lin's, effectively shortening the originally distant journey by half.
Ye Lin directed Little Red to bypass the Human Race's stronghold and arrive above the city wall.
In the distant battlefield, there was a dense swarm of Yao Beasts. At a glance, they were all of the Golden Core Realm, with many more Foundation Establishment Stage and Qi Training Stage Yao Beasts.
And in the far rear, many Nascent Soul Stage Yao Beasts were gathered.
As for Soul Transformation Realm Yao Sovereigns, not a single one appeared.
After all, it wasn't a true war with the Human Race, so there was no need for Soul Transformation Realm combat power to enter the fray.
Soul Transformation Realm Cultivators were already at the pinnacle of the East Continent, and in any race, they were absolutely top-tier combatants.
Once such figures entered the battle, everything would change.
Upon reaching the city wall, Little Red's body rapidly shrunk. Then, its claws gripped Ye Lin's shoulders, and it quietly floated above Ye Lin's shoulder.
“Congratulations, Benefactor, on your great progress in Cultivation.”
Before Ye Lin could even stand firm, Wu Xin clasped his hands together and approached Ye Lin with a smile.
“Monk, I seriously suspect whether you’ve installed some kind of tracking device on me. How do you always know when I arrive? And your speed is extremely fast.”
Ye Lin looked at Wu Xin in front of him and smiled slightly.
Every time he arrived, this monk would appear before him within ten seconds, which was utterly absurd.
“Where do you get such ideas, Benefactor? I have a predestined connection with you. When that connection arrives, we meet.”
Wu Xin said with a smile.
“Benefactor, according to the calculations from above, this might be the last wave. You must seize the opportunity.”
Wu Xin stood beside Ye Lin, looking at the dense swarm of Yao Beasts in the distance, and said with a smile.
“How so?”
Ye Lin’s heart stirred, and he turned to ask.
“The Yao Race’s actions cannot be hidden from the Shura Clan. Now, the Shura Clan is stirring, and the Yao Race is starting to abandon their superficial attacks on our Human Race.”
“As long as we can withstand this attack, then this calamity will have passed.”
After Wu Xin finished speaking, Ye Lin nodded indifferently.
The entire East Continent was ruled by three races: the Yao Race, the Human Race, and the Shura Clan, while other races lived much more miserably.
The three races checked each other. The Shura Clan was bloodthirsty, and their target was the Yao Race. Compared to the Human Race, it was the Shura Clan that gave the Yao Race more headaches.
Although Human Race flesh and blood were a great tonic for the Yao Race, the constant restraint by the Shura Clan allowed the Human Race to develop safely.
Sure enough, the Yao Race’s large-scale actions hadn't lasted long before the Shura Clan began to stir.
If the Yao Race didn't retreat, and the Shura Clan attacked, followed by the Human Race’s attack, then the Yao Race would be in danger.
The Human Race's enemy was the Yao Race, and the Shura Clan's enemy was also the Yao Race, so why didn't the Human Race and the Shura Clan cooperate against the Yao Race?
It was precisely because the Shura Clan was a bloodthirsty race; cooperating with them was like playing with fire. Once the Yao Race was gone, the Human Race would face utter destruction.
It was only by the mutual restraint of the Yao Race and the Shura Clan that the Human Race could develop peacefully.
Therefore, neither the Yao Race nor the Shura Clan could be annihilated, and the Human Race’s situation remained very difficult.
“Emergency assembly! All personnel, retreat to the third line of defense! Quick, retreat, retreat, retreat!”
Suddenly, voices echoed across the entire battlefield. The surrounding Cultivators began to take their weapons and fly into the sky, heading directly backward.
Hundreds of thousands of streaks of light flew backward together, and this vast city wall became empty in just a few minutes.
Even the energy cannons on the city wall were dismantled and taken away.
Some resources were scattered on the ground, but no one took them. After all, the first command they heard upon entering the battlefield was to obey their superior's orders at all times.
No matter how absurd the order, it had to be obeyed. Those who disobeyed would be executed.
This was why these Cultivators could hear the order and retreat without hesitation immediately.
And in these few minutes, hundreds of thousands of Human Race Cultivators all vanished.
The speed of Cultivators was hundreds of times faster than that of Mortals.
Their reaction speed was extremely fast, which allowed for such a magnificent scene to form.
At this moment, a Human Race Cultivator came before the two of them.
“Seniors, my name is An Ran. There’s an urgent report from above, ordering us to abandon the second line of defense and urgently retreat to the third line of defense.”
An Ran said with an anxious expression.
“Why?”
Ye Lin looked at An Ran in front of him, his expression grave.
The second line of defense had been prepared for a full month for this battle. He had just been silently observing, and with the strength of the second line of defense, if they fought to the death, they could completely withstand this attack.
Moreover, this was the last Yao Race attack; if they held on, they would win.
A bright future was clearly in sight, so why retreat just like that?
“Seniors, according to the news, a large number of Yao Cultivators are heading to the second line of defense. It is estimated to be tens of thousands of Golden Core Stage, and over ten thousand Nascent Soul Stage. This time, they are all here to disrupt the second line of defense.”
“And this news was just received; it’s too late to intercept them. The Yao Beast swarm has been dormant for three days, precisely waiting for those Yao Cultivators to arrive.”
“To avoid huge losses, we had no choice but to abandon the second line of defense.”
An Ran finished speaking, her face filled with anger.
“Benefactor, Yao Cultivators Cultivate secret Yao Race techniques and use them to transform their bodies. They are Yao Race spies within the Human Race. Yao Cultivators commit all sorts of evil and worship the Yao Race.”
“This time, they must have received the news and come to disrupt the second line of defense.”
Seeing Ye Lin’s slightly confused expression, Wu Xin kindly explained.
After listening to Wu Xin’s explanation, Ye Lin understood.
Simply put, these Yao Cultivators were traitors who revered the Yao Race. Although they had human bodies, they were no longer truly human.
Demonic Cultivators, Yao Cultivators, Evil Cultivators—who would have thought that within one race, there would be so many rebellious elements? No wonder the Human Race had always been an oppressed race.
“Seniors, those Yao Cultivators will arrive in half an hour. Please retreat quickly.”
Seeing that Wu Xin and Ye Lin were still motionless, An Ran said with an anxious expression.
Yao Cultivators Cultivated secret Yao Race techniques, and their bodies underwent extreme mutations. Almost every Yao Cultivator had some Yao Race features, such as a tail or scales all over their body.
Moreover, among those of the same Realm, these Yao Cultivators were extremely troublesome.
The strength of the second line of defense was more than enough to deal with these Yao Cultivators, but the Yao Beast swarm gathered outside the city wall was not to be underestimated.
If they were attacked from both sides, the second line of defense would fall into chaos.
This was the main reason for the urgent abandonment of the second line of defense.
“You go first. We’ll be right behind you.”
“Alright, Seniors, please be careful.”
After speaking, An Ran bowed to Ye Lin, then turned and flew backward.
In terms of status, Ye Lin was much higher than him. If Ye Lin didn't leave, he surely had his own plans. He had delivered the notification, and his mission was complete.
As for what happened afterward, what did it have to do with him?
“Monk, don’t you want to achieve great merit? The opportunity to achieve great merit has arrived.”
