None of the humans in Qiming City had ever come into contact with or studied demons, and few knew the history of natural disasters, so they had no experience fighting demons whatsoever.

Demonic beasts, like demons, possessed demonic energy, and at the same time, they were extremely cunning and murderous.

Facing the Terran team's siege, almost all the Split Sacred Beasts took full advantage of their respective territories' geographical conditions, first withstanding several rounds of attacks from the Terran, then showing weakness to the enemy, feigning defeat, and then attacking fiercely.

Fighting with the cunning and powerful Split Sacred Beasts, many Terran died on the spot. Some Guangming people who had followed from afar and witnessed this scene were shocked.

Although they disliked the human race, they had no intention of underestimating the human race's strength. The average strength of this group of humans in Qiming City was far superior to that of the Guangming tribe of the Sacred City, and the defeat and deaths of this group of humans was a wake-up call for the Guangming tribe.

Was this a creature from the Demon Realm? This was true for all demons, let alone the devils.

However, even so, most of the Light Clan had no intention of stepping forward to help. They simply watched from the sidelines, waiting for reinforcements from the Sacred Sect.

A long time had passed, and it stood to reason that reinforcements from the Sacred Sect should also arrive.

However, this time the Sacred Cult disappointed them. Ten minutes later, more and more Human Races had died, and more and more sacred voids had appeared in Qiming City, but reinforcements from the Sacred Sect still hadn't arrived.

"What's going on?" Some of the Guangming people began to panic.

"The Chief Priest of Qiming is gone, and reinforcements won't come. We won't be abandoned, right?"

"Impossible!"

Most of the Guangming people couldn't believe it. Since the Sacred Kingdom was founded, it had never abandoned its people—not during natural disasters, not during natural disasters, and not during the numerous disasters and wars. And this time, it was impossible.

"The reinforcements from the Sacred Sect haven't arrived. They've probably been stopped, like the Chief Priest of Enlightenment, or the news has been intercepted."

"We can only rely on ourselves."

"Alone? How can we rely on them?"

These light clan members looked at the Split Sacred Beast crouching in the distance, slightly dumbfounded. They weren't stronger than the humans in Qiming City, and their numbers weren't as good as theirs. What were they using to save themselves?

"We can't hesitate any longer, we have to help!" Suddenly, a light clan member shouted lowly.

"There's no time to care about whose city this is. If we hesitate any longer, we'll all die!"

"I can see through the Light Supremacy Sect. They don't care about the deaths of thousands or tens of thousands of clan members to achieve their own goals. They've only been using us as pawns from the start!"

"Yes, if I can get out alive this time, I will definitely make the Light Supremacy Sect's evil deeds public!"

"That's too much!"

"Okay, let's not say more, let's all help."

This was a conversation between a group of light people, and it also reflected the psychological state of all the light people in Qiming City at this moment. When their lives were threatened, they suddenly woke up.

This was also the reason why Ji Jiayu hadn't wasted time persuading them previously. If he only used words to persuade them, they likely wouldn't listen. Only by letting the cruel reality hit them in the face would they know what reality was.

Now, under the persecution of reality, tens of thousands of light clansmen had taken the initiative to scatter in all directions to assist humanity in dealing with the Split Sacred Beast.

However, what made them despair was that they seemed to have woken up a little too late. Although their addition had some effect, it didn't change the situation. The Split Holy Beast was still relentlessly devouring divine power, still able to easily withstand their attacks and those of the human race, and fight back.

The sacred vacuum continued to expand, and from time to time someone was caught in it and died. "It's over, we're dead."

Seeing that the Split Holy Beast was about to evolve and become stronger as it devoured divine power, many humans, light races, and mixed-race children despaired. They no longer continued attacking the Split Holy Beast, but instead watched from a distance, their eyes filled with fear.

"You dead child, what are you talking about? You can't give up, you know? If you give up, you're really dead!" A human slapped the head of the mixed-race man who had spoken, but the latter was like a walking corpse, as if he hadn't noticed.

"It's no use trying. We're too weak to harm this Split Holy Beast at all. Their demonic energy is too strong to withstand divine power, and to deal with them, they must be of the same order."

"Is it really impossible?"

"It's not that there wasn't any... at all."

Someone looked in the direction where Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi had just disappeared.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a deafening explosion rang out, followed by a large number of Light Racers, Humans, and Hybrids. A large number of Light Racers, Humans, and Hybrids saw a pillar of light rising into the sky.

Within seconds, a shockwave swept across the land, and everyone's expressions changed, and they cast holy spells to resist the shockwave.

"There there..." A glimmer of hope appeared in everyone's hearts.

At this moment, the Light Racers, Humans, and Hybrids closer to the center of the explosion looked at the pillar of light in disbelief.

They saw that within the light, two figures were close together. Clearly, they were Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi.

Just now, Ji Jiayu had used the divine power transformed by the Sacred Light Pearl to break the devouring power of the Split Sacred Beast, preventing the Split Sacred Beast from safely ingesting divine power. Therefore, it furiously launched an attack on Ji Jiayu and Nie Lanxi.

In a situation where everyone in the city was hopeless, Ji Jiayu could only look to Nie Lanxun. "Can you help me this time?"

Although Nie Lanxi was his guardian, the two didn't have particularly deep feelings, and he had always restrained himself and tried not to let himself rely on Nie Lanxi. However, Nie Lanxi was strong and indeed worthy of his dependence, and he truly had no choice at this moment.

Nie Lanxi was silent for a moment when he heard this, then nodded and said, "Yes."

He was reluctant to reveal his abilities and strength to others easily, but there were exceptions, such as when his own life was in danger, when everyone in the city was in danger, or when Ji Jiayu needed him.

So, he placed his hand on Ji Jiayu's shoulder. The mass of pure and majestic divine power light in his body began to contract and expand, like a beating heart, and endless divine power flowed into Ji Jiayu's body along his divine circuit.

The Holy Light Pearl thus bloomed with light, and the light converged into a beam of light, crashing into the mouth of this peak ninth-level divine beast. The divine-grade divine power combined with the Holy Radiance Orb's special properties easily broke through the demonic energy defense of this split sacred beast and penetrated its body.

Panting, Ji Jiayu didn't stop, flying towards the other split sacred beast.

Although he and Nie Lanxi had worked together to defeat the split sacred beast, the situation in Qiming City hadn't improved in the slightest. It had become even more serious. Because as the devouring divine power increased, the other split sacred beasts were becoming increasingly powerful, and they were about to reach the peak of the ninth rank.
