Nie Lanxi also frowned. He stared at Ji Jiayu for a few seconds, then slowly said, "I don't know why. It's already ninety-nine percent, so it should be a little short."

Ji Jiayu opened his mouth, slightly wanting to question Nie Lanxi's words. However, since he met her, he had earned her trust with the abilities and knowledge he had demonstrated. It was understandable for her to make mistakes in matters related to the person in charge of the Sacred Jade Pearl.

However, Ji Jiayu stared at the corpse at his feet, his face slightly pale.

Just as Ji Jiayu was puzzled, in the sky about five kilometers away from the northern city wall, several seventh- and eighth-level demon emperors and Ming Sheng were fighting.

After sensing that the seventh-level demon emperor Yiyang was dead, several demon emperors communicated through their demon minds.

"The aura on his body... It's that scent."

"Kill him or capture him?"

"Kill!"

"I hate his aura!"

"Give the order!"

After exchanging a few brief words, several high-level demon emperors used their demon minds to give orders. A few seconds later, all the demon frontline commanders received the order and had a new target.

Human Selector Ji Jiayu, finish him off at all costs!

After this order was issued for more than ten seconds, the first demon army marched towards the north gate, followed by... the second and the third.

In just a few minutes, dozens of demon armies were gathering towards the North City Gate, and the originally relatively safe area was about to become the most brutal battlefield.

Of course, the Light Clan had also mobilized troops in time to respond, but the Human Selector was already on the front lines of the battlefield, and it was difficult for them to retreat on a battlefield with tens of thousands of men.

For a time, the Human Selector on the North City Wall could only remain on guard with great fear in their hearts.

Seeing this scene, Ji Jiayu gritted his teeth. Although he didn't know what was happening, he could roughly guess that this demon army was coming for him.

A thought flashed through Ji Jiayu's mind, and just as he was about to act, Su Mengmeng suddenly came to his side and looked at him solemnly.

"I won't allow you to do this!"

Ji Jiayu opened his mouth and was about to speak when Wang Zhengyu, whom he had met on the road earlier, also ran over and stood in front of Ji Jiayu.

"I won't let you sacrifice yourself again!"

Immediately after, Ding Lu, Ye Zihang, and the group of human electors who had been guarded by Ji Jiayu earlier also gathered one after another. They knew that the sudden action of the demon army was no accident. Once a seventh-level demon emperor fell here, the demon clan would change its target. Needless to say, it was impossible.

"Don't do it."

"Together, we can block the demon attack."

"You've already paid a great price for us!"

The crowd's words deeply moved Ji Jiayu, but they were of no use. Instead, they strengthened his resolve to do so.

Controlling the Sacred Jewel Phantom, he was the most powerful and capable person on the scene to face this crisis, and he couldn't allow these human electors to stand in front of him while he hid behind like a shrinking turtle.

He couldn't. After all, with great ability comes great responsibility. Protecting the weak was a truth his mentor Fang Xing had taught him with his life, and he had always planned to practice this truth with his life.

More and more human voters surrounded Ji Jiayu. Some had been guarded by Ji Jiayu before, and some had heard of his experiences and witnessed what he had just done, and decided to come out of emotion.

In short, Ji Jiayu was quickly surrounded by the crowd.

The demons grew in number, and the blackness pressed down like a dark cloud. Their unified footsteps rumbled, crushing from far to near.

Soon, a level eight Ming Sheng powerhouse sitting at the forefront arrived. He dismissed the group of human voters, stood alone with Ji Jiayu, and asked, "What's wrong with you? Why are they targeting you?"

"Because of the ghost of the Sacred Orb." Ji Jiayu didn't hide it.

In this battlefield with so many battles, secretive behavior was the most desperate.

Ji Jiayu didn't explain the details to the eighth-level Ming Sheng; he assumed they would have found out early in the morning. Besides, they weren't stupid; they had mysteriously accepted so many races, and it was impossible not to ask beforehand. And with thousands of human voters, there would inevitably be some who couldn't resist the pressure and told the truth. So, this was the Sacred Radiance World, and the news of their being voters naturally couldn't be hidden from the Radiance Clan.

Hearing Ji Jiayu's words, the eighth-level Ming Sheng's expression changed drastically, but he immediately said in surprise, "You've become the person in charge?"

Although he had been in the Sacred Radiance World during the Cataclysm, he hadn't cared about the future of the Radiance Clan. When he learned of the situation the Radiance Clan was facing and how much the Radiance Clan had paid for the Sacred Radiance Orb, he was also a little worried and distressed. After all, if he hadn't died, there would definitely be his descendants in that group. Perhaps there would be many more.

Hearing that Ji Jiayu had become the person in charge, how could he not be pleased?

However, Ji Jiayu quickly shook his head again, "No, it's just a phantom. The real Sacred Pearl is outside. However, by the way, I've always been curious about what the Sacred Pearl and the Seven Divine Pearls are."

Ji Jiayu had heard the names of the Sacred Light Pearl and the Seven Divine Pearls from Nie Lanxi, but he didn't know their specific origins.

The eighth-level Ming Sheng glanced at the gathering of demons below the city walls, hesitated for a moment, and then said to Ji Jiayu, "Three hundred years ago, your human ancestor, Tianxing, made a prophecy in the Book of Prophecies that within three hundred years, the monster race, the spirit race, and all subordinate races, including the human race that ruled the Immortal Continent, would be destroyed. To prevent this from happening, the forces of the monster race and the spirit race united with all the races of the Flying Blue Star, and together they refined the supreme artifact, the Seven Divine Beads, to resist the impact of the root of the world's destruction, the Warcraft Star."

"Later, the Warcraft Star fell, and the Seven Divine Beads completely resisted and destroyed the Warcraft Star, leaving only the two continents of the Warcraft Star. After completing this feat, the energy of the Seven Divine Beads was exhausted, but under the control of many moon gods, great heavenly gods, and other powerful forces, the Seven Divine Beads caused great damage to the demons, and later legends arose that the Seven Divine Beads were the archenemies of the demons."

"When I saw you today, it was indeed so!"

The last thing the eighth-level Ming Sheng said was the scene of Ji Jiayu's pale golden scales devouring the previous seventh-level demon emperor. After listening to the eighth-level Ming Sheng's introduction, Ji Jiayu couldn't recover for a long time. He learned the story later, and Song Yuhui told him about it not long ago.

After the cataclysm, the only landmass on the French Blue Star at the time, the Fairy Continent, was torn apart by the massive impact. Along with the two destroyed continents of the Warcraft Star, a total of six continents remained, known as the Six Domains.

The fall of the Warcraft Star led to the ecological destruction of the French Blue Star, and the emergence of seven oceans, known as the Seven Color Seas. The Seven Seas and Six Regions are collectively known as the Shenlan Wonderland.

At this point, the Ice Age ended, and the French Star entered the Dark Age, also known as the first year of the Dark Calendar.

This catastrophe was called the Cataclysm. After the Cataclysm, the Kingdom of Order in the Region, the Kingdom of Freedom in the Blue Domain, and the Kingdom of the Holy Spirit in the Temple were established one after another, constituting the three domains of humanity.

The monster and spirit tribes suffered heavy casualties in the Cataclysm, their powerful forces were all killed, and the remaining forces occupied the domains designated as the Demon Domains.

The alien races originating from the Warcraft Star, the Demon Race and the Orc Race, occupied their respective domains, which were the Demon Domain and the Beast Domain. Ji Jiayu exclaimed in his heart: The reason all this could continue was because of the Seven Divine Beads! The ghost in his mind was one of them. If he truly took control of them, wouldn't it be easy to return to Guangming City and complete his mission? Not only that, once he became the guardian of the Sacred Light Pearl, the Guangming Clan would also have the confidence to fight the Demon Clan.

It turns out you can be so important... Isn't that the scene you've occasionally fantasized about since you were a child come true? When everyone was helpless, he stood up with dignity, protecting them with his life, and then turned into light and disappeared. After all, I'm also someone, someone no one would care about, and even more so after Brother Fang Xing's death...

Suddenly, Ji Jiayu shook his head and abandoned all these distracting thoughts. He looked at the dense demon army below, and his heart was heavy.

He now controlled the Holy Radiance Phantom, and there were many possibilities in the future, but only if he returned alive!

"I want to use myself as bait," Ji Jiayu suddenly looked at the eighth-level Ming Sheng seriously and said.

The eighth-level Ming Sheng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and said, "If the demon clan really listed you as a target because of the Holy Radiance Phantom, then you should be the best bait. But, have you ever thought about who will solve it?"

"The Shadow of the Sacred Light has the ability to emit a special kind of light. Although I don't yet know its function, I have a strong feeling that it will most likely target demons." Ji Jiayu said, "I'll lure them and use the light of the Sacred Gem Ghost to attack them, and then, you'll harvest."

"What if your premonition is wrong?" the eighth-level Ming Sheng asked.

"There's another way to do it." As Ji Jiayu spoke, he looked at Nie Lanxi not far away.

Nie Lanxi had always been like an outsider since he arrived on this battlefield, but Ji Jiayu knew that he couldn't be an outsider.

The eighth-level Ming Sheng followed Ji Jiayu's gaze and looked at Nie Lanxi. Nie Lanxi gave him a feeling of being unable to see clearly.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" The eighth-level Ming Sheng said, "It's very dangerous."

"I'm sure," Ji Jiayu said. If he didn't do this, a battle would break out on the other side of the northern city wall, and the Human Selectors would definitely suffer heavy casualties.

"Then do it." The eighth-level Ming Sheng said, "I'll inform them to be prepared."

"Thank you for your trust." After Ji Jiayu finished speaking, the scales on his body trembled, and divine power exploded. He transformed into a shadow without saying a word, and ran towards the west side of the city wall.

When the human voters saw this, they were stunned. They wanted to follow, but Ji Jiayu transformed into a pale golden light and shadow in the blink of an eye, disappearing without a trace.

The demon army also chased after him.

Ye Zihang and Ding Lu stood in place, silent. They subconsciously looked at Nie Lanxi, but found that Nie Lanxi had disappeared somewhere.

Even Su Mengmeng followed Ji Jiayu.

"Power!"

"Power!" Both of them shouted in their hearts.

The intensity of the battle on the west city wall was initially only slightly higher than that on the north city wall, but as Ji Jiayu leaped off the city wall and ran deep into the dense forest, the battle on the west city wall suddenly intensified.
