CHAPTER 1068: CHAPTER 1068: THEY’VE ALL COME BACK AFTER ALL

"Indeed, just a bunch of guys who’ve never endured harsh battles."

Fang Jie looked at those gods, each displaying signs of war-weariness, their emotions growing more intense. But there’s no way around it; after all, few among these gods have actually experienced bitter battles.

The few who managed to persist, Fang Jie roughly understood their circumstances.

Either they faced similar wars before becoming gods, or they participated in battles in the All Heavens Hunting Ground. Especially those who seemed relatively at ease, creating a sharp contrast with the other gods around them.

"Order those people to go back and rest." Fang Jie directly commanded.

"But if we let them rest, the frontline’s strength will weaken." Someone raised an objection.

"Don’t worry, I still have backup forces." Fang Jie issued such an order because the troops he had previously created were all fully hatched and ready to be deployed on the battlefield now.

Soon, others saw numerous Void Graveyards flying out of Fang Jie’s Divine Country.

Fang Jie couldn’t help but release them, as the Void Graveyards were extremely large. If he didn’t release them, his Divine Country simply couldn’t accommodate so many. Now, as the Void Graveyards were hatching one by one, his Divine Country quickly became crowded.

This batch was far more numerous than those initially on the battlefield. Fang Jie swiftly replaced the original Void Graveyards on the battlefield and went to rest beside his Divine Country.

Even with troops like the Void Graveyards, infinite strength was not a possibility.

But since those gods withdrew, Fang Jie felt at ease. Because at this moment, the battlefield only had his forces, he felt comfortable leaving, knowing he had to create more Void Graveyards.

Honestly, those gods, who could sustain long battles themselves, even months of continuous fighting.

Yet here, after spending just a short time, their spirits couldn’t bear it. Though the pressure here was immense, these guys’ stress tolerance and their true abilities seemed vastly disparate.

Unsure if they genuinely couldn’t handle it, or if they were concerned about over-consuming their strength.

Anyway, these gods have their own thoughts, and their personal endurance was indeed lacking.

Those gods who just withdrew, some even intended to leave. But suddenly, upon seeing the massive Void Graveyards Fang Jie released, their expressions turned rather peculiar.

Some gods with special tasks quickly apologized and left; they had their own business to attend to.

Soon, within the All Heavens Hunting Ground, gods in the Blood Bone Region received the news from this side.

"What? White Lotus hides so deeply, clearly possessing such combat power yet keeping it concealed. It’s evident he’s guarding against us, right?"

"It may not necessarily be defenses, could just be probing our attitude."

"Hold on, you’re thinking too highly of yourselves, aren’t you? With White Lotus’ current strength, does he even need to care about our attitudes? Unless we unite, a few individually stand no chance against him."

Other gods paused; is this guy an idiot? Doesn’t he see they’re sparing his dignity?

After a long time, a god finally spoke: "Quit babbling nonsense, the issue now is that the pressure on the frontlines seems greater than we imagined; we can’t sit idly by on this matter."

"Right, clearly many who’ve received quotas to go to that side can’t all stay here. It’s time for those who returned to rest to head back; the frontlines need them now."

Many gods muttered inwardly, these guys really have an unlikeable demeanor.

Even though they’re Upper Gods, some are ultimately shameless. Others remained silent; anyway, what they intended to do aligned with their objectives. Let them act foolish; just follow them.

This isn’t about contributing to the frontlines; it’s clearly about seeking benefits.

Seeing their people won’t face life-threatening danger, they sent them directly to the frontlines.

As for those few who perished, either due to bad luck or inadequate strength, their deaths are not lamented. Nonetheless, this offers a chance to gain merit; missing it means losing opportunities.

The battlefield’s merit, the same task is twice as fruitful compared to usual.

Didn’t they observe how quickly Emperor Skeleton’s strength accumulated recently? Regrettably, they missed the chance; catching up to this loyalty to White Lotus now seems almost implausible.

Yet, even so, with time given, some still have opportunities to quickly ascend to the Middle-Level God tier.

Ultimately, on the battlefield, after Fang Jie persisted for a period, sudden beams erupted from the Teleportation Array.

Fang Jie turned back, his gaze traversing the void, observing the situation by the Teleportation Array. It’s not that people were departing, but those who left prior returned. Except for a few, most appeared present.

"Haha, never imagined they’d all return, truly a swarm of fly-like gods."

Fang Jie muttered inwardly, holding no fondness for their return. Naturally, he wouldn’t voice anything, as expressing emotions recklessly could disrupt Qin Lan’s strategies.

Now, Qin Lan proceeded to elevate morale among these individuals.

Yes, boosting morale; after this event, many gods returned feeling guilty, and future interactions would be closer. Especially those in the White Lotus Divine System, barring a few exceptions, others already began cultivating loyalty.

As for the special ones, Qin Lan already identified them, planning to send them to the battlefield to meet their ends.

In a place like this, ensuring their accidental death was effortless; don’t forget this was Fang Jie’s domain.

Even if unintentional scheming wasn’t involved, just delaying rescue slightly when they faced danger sufficed. A misstep, while being targeted collectively, caused a few deaths with ease.

It was just as Fang Jie pondered, his brow suddenly furrowing.

Fang Jie gazed toward the void; a powerful existence approached this side. What caused him to sense such power was definitely not a simple entity, at least an Upper Gods tier.

"I’ll go have a look; you all handle the command here. A mighty being is approaching."

Upon hearing Fang Jie’s words, previously dismissive individuals also began adopting a serious demeanor. If Fang Jie deemed it powerful, it was surely of Upper Gods tier. In battles involving gods like these, they lacked even the qualification to watch.

Some also returned to their Divine Country to observe Fang Jie’s battle through that side.
