Chapter 179: Chaotic Battle (Part 2)
"Damn it, that hit just now hurt so bad, and now you're afraid and want to run? No way!" Long Xuhu and Man Niu, looking at the hundreds of Quasi-Saint Realm Great Powers fleeing in terror, cruelly smiled and tacitly stretched their arms out, their golden hands suddenly grasping towards the distant chain of green mountains.
"Boom!"
Together, the four golden hands of the two, with the strength to uproot mountains and rivers, each held aloft two towering mountains and wildly laughed as they hurled them at the scattering crowd.
"Bang!"
Without any suspense, the mountains, over a thousand meters tall and weighing over ten thousand tons, directly smashed into the crowd. The immense force pinned dozens of the Great Powers underneath, creating a deafening noise.
For a while, the fleshy bodies of dozens of Quasi-Saint Realm Great Powers who couldn't escape in time instantly shattered, their blood, bones, and hair scattering across the sky, splattering everywhere.
"Devils, they are devils! Run!"
Almost everyone who had ever faced Long Xuhu and Man Niu had now collapsed in fear, screaming as they turned into streaks of light fleeing towards the distant horizon.
However, the Long Xuhu brothers had no intention of letting them go and started to cut them off horizontally, aiming to have them all fall outside Scorpion City.
"Ah..."
"No..."
Screams of agony tore through the heavenly vault, and artifacts emitting strong fluctuations were shattered by the two. The entire western side of the battlefield was turned into a river of blood and a mountain of bones by their massacre.
Looking at the other side, on the southern side of the battlefield, Yang Jian this time did not transform into a Demon Ape's body, but instead joined forces with the Ga She brothers to form the Four Symbols Demon Extermination Formation, conjuring the Four Symbols Divine Beasts, rampaging under the hands of Huntian.
"Roar!" "Screech!" "Roar!" "Hiss!"
Four angry roars echoed through the heavens. Yang Jian and the others transformed into the fierce Four Symbols Sacred Beasts, surrounding more than two hundred sub-saints, continuously invoking various Power of Laws.
The Azure Dragon of the East unleashed the Power of Jia Wood, conjuring thousands of verdant longswords, the sword cries shaking the heavens, with a vast sword intent gushing out, carrying bone-chilling cold, sweeping through the crowd. The Northern Xuanwu's Ren Kui Water Power condensed into swamps of fog above the heavenly vault, dropping boundless black Xuan Water, corroding everything and eroding divine souls.
The Western White Tiger's Geng Metal Power, conjured golden long knives leaping across the sky, sharp without equal. The Southern Vermilion Bird's Leaving Fire Power, spawned dozens of deep blue fire dragons, raging through the crowd tearing and soaring, the intense heat creating cracks in space, almost splitting it open.
These four forces, just formed, had already refined hundreds of Quasi-Saint Realm Great Powers to death. Now, barely able to survive the encirclement of the Four Holy Beasts, only a few Great Powers in the Middle-Stage Sub-Saint Realm remained, and it was believed that erasing them completely was only a matter of time.
...
In the distant direct north, those Black-Robed Soul Hunting Demon Guards gathered around Li Qingquan suddenly felt an unmasked killing intent. The central Li Qingquan's hair was flying about, and although his body was enveloped in green mist, the enormous oppressive force that burst forth vaguely merged with heaven and earth, pressing down on all of them.
"Soul Hunting Demon Guards, hunt souls!" Huntian could no longer bear this pressure, and with a gentle lift of his hand, signaled these hundred or so people to immediately attack.
The Soul-splitting Demon Guards no longer hesitated, their bodies emanated a majestic oppressive force, summoning Spiritual Treasures and collectively charging towards Li Qingquan.
Unified standard-issue black Demon Blades, neatly synchronized steps and arm lifts, nearly hundred percent synchronization of Spiritual Energy pressure...
"Boom!"
The void that had just been tightly sealed by the Soul Hunting Demon Guards instantly shattered into pieces, fierce Star Power pouring from the broken void along a specific trajectory, enhancing the black Demon Blades in the hands of the Soul Hunting Demon Guards.
The Demon Blades shone with radiance, Demonic Qi like an ocean, stirring up thousands of massive waves, fervently rushing towards Li Qingquan.
Li Qingquan's eyes sparkled, and with a cold snort, he suddenly extended his right arm, golden light flashing on his hand which was tinged with a hint of golden brilliance, clearly having activated the Nine Revolutions Mystical Technique to its limit.
His hand soared into the air, swelling up like it had injected adrenaline, quickly becoming as large as a fan, carrying overwhelming might as he met the attack.
"Clang!"
The pitch-black Demon Blades clashed with the golden palm, setting off a dazzling golden light, a deafening buzz leaving people's ears ringing.
"Break for me!" The massive palm blocked all the Demon Blades, and Li Qingquan shouted loudly, his whole arm spinning like a windmill, ferociously sweeping all the Black-Robed Soul Hunting Demon Guards away.
"Pfft!"
Many Soul Hunting Demon Guards, whose Cultivation had just touched the Sub-Saint Realm, were struck by this immense force, spitting blood and flying towards the distant heavenly vault.
Li Qingquan had no interest in observing these minions, his gaze sharply turned towards Huntian in front of him and the mysterious Black Robed Man. Simultaneously, he retracted the lush, immense long spear, silently reciting an incantation,
"Boom!"
A majestic quake resounded, shaking the heavens and earth; an ancient scroll flew out from between Li Qingquan's eyebrows, hovering in midair, covering a hundred miles of the sky and land.
On this ancient scroll were embroidered majestic and magnificent mountains and rivers, almost lifelike, encompassing everything within!
"Well, I knew this kid was hiding something! This Ten Thousand Miles of Mountains and Rivers Map must be the Spiritual Treasure snatched from Fu Xi back then!" Standing atop a city far away, Li Qingquan's lips curled into a smile.
This ancient scroll, known as the Ten Thousand Miles of Mountains and Rivers Map, can contain all things between Heaven and Earth, accommodate three thousand worlds, and suppress and refine everything. Although it is only a Middle Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, its position is close to the finest!
Li Qingquan held the Ten Thousand Miles of Mountains and Rivers Map in his hand and gave it a gentle shake.
"Rumble rumble..."
A swath of black clouds floated out from the scroll, endless thunderous roars shook Heaven and Earth, and massive, incomparable bolts of lightning struck down, followed by a torrential downpour of the Thunder Sea.
Huntian was startled by the sudden lightning strike; if he hadn't dodged quickly, he would likely have been struck, leaving him smoking all over.
The Black Robed Man, who had always been by Huntian's side, quickly set up a protective barrier for him and shouted anxiously, "Not good! Soul Hunting Demon Guards, come protect the Young Master quickly. If anything happens to the Young Master, you will all have to accompany him in death!"
Those Quasi-Saints who had been slapped away by Li Qingquan all came to their senses, flying over with fear and trepidation, attempting to interrupt Li Qingquan's bombardment.
"Kill!"
They screamed loudly, the Demon Blades in their hands instantly elongated, slashing towards Li Qingquan who was fully wielding the Ten Thousand Miles of Mountains and Rivers Map.
"Die!" Annoyed by the nuisance of these ants, Li Qingquan became furious, shifting the direction of the ancient scroll towards those detestable Soul Hunting Demon Guards.
"Crackle!"
At that moment, Li Qingquan's body flickered with golden light, like a Divine descending to the Mortal World, fully wielding the Ten Thousand Miles of Mountains and Rivers Map, vowing to annihilate these ants completely!
"Sizzle..."
Silver lightning linked together, dazzling Divine Light burst out in billions of strands, weaving a world of light, covering an area of dozens of miles around, compelling everyone on the battlefield to look sideways.
The majestic ocean of thunder and lightning descended, the oppressive black clouds lowered the sky, and their immensely heavy and oppressive power could obliterate any obstruction.
Seeing this scene, the faces of the Soul Hunting Demon Guards turned green with fear, regretting their misstep which led to a complete loss. If this lightning were to truly strike them, even if it did not kill them, it would severely injure them!
Oh, heavens, what kind of freak has appeared!!!
"Boom!"
The Thunder Sea did not care for their thoughts. At this moment, the lightning infused with Li Qingquan's intent to kill was tremendously terrifying, each bolt was like a star river falling, magnificent and powerful – this was not something that mere Quasi-Saints could contend against.
"Don't resist, dodge!"
This thought almost simultaneously appeared in the minds of those Demon Guards. They hastily retreated, trying to distance themselves from the looming black clouds above, afraid they would be struck dead.
"Trying to run?" A cold sneer appeared on Li Qingquan's lips as he controlled the Power of Devouring Rules within him, channeling it into the dark clouds above and then striking down repeatedly. Every bolt of lightning that struck down erased the physical bodies and Divine Souls of the Soul Hunting Demon Guards with the Power of Devouring Rules.
"Boom, boom..."
One puff, two puffs... seventy-seven puffs of black mist, together with the ten who were earlier slapped to death by his palm, accounted for eighty-seven Quasi-Saint Peak Great Powers wiped out by Li Qingming, their souls scattered.
"Ah..."
The remaining thirteen Soul Hunting Demon Guards, all in the Sub-Saint Realm, still shuddered in fear facing Li Qingquan. Although the lightning did not seek their lives, it punctured their bodies full of holes, continuously smoking! If they didn't promptly cleanse the Power of Devouring Dao Rules that infiltrated their bodies, they would soon follow in the footsteps of those eighty-seven Quasi-Saints.
"Your more than eighty brothers are all waiting for you below; let me send you to reunite with them!" Li Qingquan's movements were elusive, using the power of the Ten Thousand Miles of Mountains and Rivers Map to merge into the Void. In an instant, he appeared in front of several escaping Sub-Saints, lightly unfurling the Ten Thousand Miles of Mountains and Rivers Map.
"Crackle..."
Divine Flames burst forth from the ancient scroll, and before they could react, fierce flames had already scorched their bodies.
"Ah! It's killing me!"
"Help, help..."
Thirteen Sub-Saints screamed pitifully mid-air, the intense flames completely enveloping their bodies, gradually erasing them bit by bit.
"Boom!"
Moments later, the agonizing screams ceased, and burnt bodies, unrecognizable and charred, fell from the sky. Before hitting the ground, they had already scattered with the wind, fluttering away!
This was a bloodless massacre, a one-sided slaughter!
Although it was not as bloody as Long Xuhu and Yang Jian's approach, this bloodless and fleshless killing sent shivers down Huntian's spine, chilling his heart. (To be continued.
