"We're retreating." The Supreme Beast needed to take this action. Although he hated to say it, his current strength wouldn't be enough to stop the Spirit God's Nine Purities Slash. There was a possibility that the Spirit God couldn't use it more than once because it took so much Divine Energy, but he also didn't want to risk it.
There was always next time as long as you didn't die. And he had no preparation like the Spirit God when he died. Hence, retreating was the most logical action to take in this situation.
As if they knew about his order, the monsters began escaping from the battlefield in systematic order like this had been planned before.
Even Alex, who saw the whole thing, couldn't help but furrow his eyebrows. He halted his steps and watched how they left one by one until all the God Kings decided to regroup with him.
