Chapter 293 The war ends
This earth-shattering war between the three races was like a long-lasting nightmare, which lasted for thousands of years!
During these long and brutal years of war, every participant experienced countless life-or-death battles, and the battlefield was filled with rivers of blood and corpses.
Ultimately, all three races paid an extremely heavy price, with casualties so severe they were shocking.
However, when it comes to the specific losses suffered by each race, the dragon race undoubtedly suffered a heavier blow.
According to rough estimates, more than half of the dragon clan members have fallen on this bloody battlefield, suffering a severe blow.
The reason for this situation is obvious—the dragon race is fighting against the combined attack of the other two races on its own.
The three races were originally evenly matched, but even the strongest can't fight against many, let alone one against two.
The fact that the dragon race has survived to this day without being wiped out is a testament to their incredible resilience; they are practically born with thick skin and exceptional resistance to attacks.
As time went on, the battle gradually became a stalemate.
At this moment, perhaps because the moment of greatest calamity had not yet arrived, the power that could make people lose their minds still had a relatively limited impact on everyone.
Gradually, everyone's minds began to clear from the frenzy and confusion.
Once consciousness regained control, the frenzied fighting finally ceased, replaced by a solemn silence.
The first to stop fighting were the three top leaders of the three races.
As leaders and key figures of their respective groups, their every move influenced the course of the entire war.
When they saw their leader stop first, the other tribesmen, though unwilling, could only follow suit and cease their attacks.
As a result, the battlefield, which had just been filled with the deafening shouts of battle, fell silent instantly, leaving only the two sides locked in a tense standoff, the atmosphere so tense that it seemed as if a single spark could ignite another earth-shattering battle.
After such a long and fierce battle, all three big shots were covered in wounds.
Among them, Zu Long's injuries were the most serious.
His once imposing body was now covered with hideous and terrifying wounds, and blood kept seeping out, staining the sea below red.
Even though he was seriously injured, Zulong still stood tall with his head held high and his eyes blazing, revealing an indomitable and powerful will.
However, it must be said that he is truly extremely powerful!
In that thrilling battle, facing the combined might of the First Qilin and the Yuanfeng, he actually managed to withstand their overwhelming onslaught with his innate magic weapon—the Ancestral Dragon Pearl.
Not only that, while defending against the attacks, he also seized the opportunity to cleverly use the power of the Ancestral Dragon Pearl to successfully counterattack the First Qilin and the Yuanfeng, causing them considerable damage.
When both sides finally stopped what they were doing, all three of them looked exhausted.
After a brief silence, they resumed negotiations.
After the negotiations, both sides felt a sense of being deceived.
Even so, because they all cared about their own face and dignity, neither of them was willing to be the first to admit it.
After all, admitting it would mean becoming the object of ridicule.
Although he knew in his heart that he might be being schemed against by others, the situation had already developed to this point, and it was clear that this earth-shattering battle could not continue.
After exchanging some harsh words, the three led their people and slowly retreated from the battlefield.
Although this large-scale battle has temporarily come to an end, its impact is far from over.
It should be noted that the relationship between the three races was already extremely tense before this.
However, in the past, everyone tacitly understood each other and maintained a certain understanding to avoid direct conflict, barely maintaining a superficial state of peaceful coexistence.
However, after this battle, many members of all three races were killed or wounded, which undoubtedly shattered the already fragile balance and created a deep blood feud between them.
At this moment, although both sides had just experienced that fierce battle, they were still able to suppress their anger due to physical and mental exhaustion and because the feud had not yet reached the point of being irreconcilable.
However, it is foreseeable that as time goes by, this deep-seated hatred will become more and more mellow and intense, like fine wine.
When it finally erupts one day, its power will surely shake the heavens and earth, unleashing a bloody storm like a raging torrent!
The most significant change was that, after this earth-shattering battle, the calamity energy between heaven and earth became even more intense.
However, Ling Feng, the protagonist who instigated this earth-shattering conflict, was currently in Penglai Cave, living a leisurely and comfortable life with several beauties.
After instigating the war between the three races, he gracefully withdrew from the fray, concealing his achievements and fame.
Then, he quietly returned to Penglai Cave and waited for the system task to be completed.
When the great war between the three races came to an end, the system notification that Ling Feng had been waiting for finally arrived as scheduled.
"Ding"
"Congratulations, host, on successfully completing the task of advancing the Great Tribulation. You have received the following rewards: a fragment of Law Enlightenment, one million years of cultivation, and the magic treasure, the Reincarnation Purple Lotus."
After hearing the details of the rewards provided by the system, Ling Feng couldn't help but feel somewhat helpless.
Because the reward was nothing new; it was as simple and unpretentious as ever.
However, the Reincarnation Purple Lotus did arouse Ling Feng's considerable interest.
After all, he had already obtained two lotus platforms before this.
However, for a long time after that, he never received any more lotus-shaped rewards.
Ling Feng even began to doubt that his wish to collect all five lotus platforms might never be fulfilled.
You should know that the other lotus pedestals all belong to someone else!
Ling Feng originally thought he had no chance with these lotus platforms and even planned to give up the idea of owning them.
However, just after he gave up, the system actually bestowed the lotus platform upon him again as a reward!
This unexpected surprise instantly rekindled the flame of hope that had almost been extinguished deep within Ling Feng's heart.
The thought of successfully collecting all five lotus platforms and fusing them together to form the legendary Chaos Green Lotus filled Ling Feng with excitement.
However, according to the ancient texts Ling Feng had read in his previous life, the Chaos Green Lotus had twelve leaves.
The flower has twenty-four petals;
Five lotus seeds will form at the heart of the lotus.
These five lotus seeds transformed into five lotus pedestals, each with a different function.
The two largest lotus leaves transformed into the Hetu Luoshu, a magical artifact possessed by Emperor Jun.
After absorbing the innate five elements, the five larger lotus leaves transformed into the innate magical treasure, the Five Banners of the Primordial Directions.
The five smaller lotus leaves also underwent a miraculous transformation, turning into the five innate spiritual lamps.
After absorbing a large amount of the power of the original vow, the lotus seedpod eventually transformed into the Qiankun Cauldron, a supreme innate treasure.
Because the root absorbed the innate killing energy, it transformed into a god-slaying spear that shook the world!
Ling Feng knew that if he wanted to completely integrate the Chaos Green Lotus, then in addition to the five lotus platforms, the aforementioned magical treasures were also indispensable.
Fortunately, Ling Feng had a general idea of where these magical treasures were. Although obtaining them might not be easy, with his strength, it wasn't entirely impossible for him to get them.
Therefore, Ling Feng was filled with anticipation for what kind of breathtaking appearance his Chaos Green Lotus would display after the successful fusion.
