Blood Demon Ancestor

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Soul Annihilation Needles pierced through the void like a torrential downpour, streaking toward Lu Changsheng's glabella with lightning speed.

These Soul Annihilation Needles were an exceptionally vicious type of concealed weapon. They could easily pierce the soul; at best, they could make one lose their mind, and at worst, they could destroy one's soul entirely and kill them on the spot!

Lu Changsheng had been wholly immersed in the terrifying clash between the Dragon Elephant Divine Fist and the Sky-Splitting Sacred Lion Claw. Yet a thread of deathly aura that pierced straight into his soul suddenly came from his glabella, making every hair on his body stand on end as his pupils contracted!

A concealed weapon!

Lu Changsheng abruptly snapped awake.

The Soul Annihilation Needles rapidly enlarged in his deep pupils, so fast that even his thoughts could not react in time!

Buzz!

Yet at that moment, a streak of golden light shot out from his dantian, transforming into an ancient Golden Cauldron that hovered before Lu Changsheng's glabella.

It was none other than the Creation Devouring Heaven Cauldron!

Clang!

Crisp metallic clanging rang out. The Soul Annihilation Needles, capable of killing even Divine Palace Realm experts, struck the Golden Cauldron. Then, with a jingle, they lightly fell onto the rubble at Lu Changsheng's feet, their eerie blue gleam extinguished as they turned into ordinary iron!

"What?!!!"

Qin Lie's sinister smile instantly froze on his face. His eyes nearly bulged from their sockets, while a heart-rending roar erupted in his heart!

His greatest reliance—the Qin Family's most vicious Soul Annihilation Needles, which had never once failed... had actually... actually been blocked?! How was that possible?!

"Junior Disciple Lu! Those are Soul Annihilation Needles! The Qin Family's most vicious concealed weapons! Qin Lie! You actually used concealed weapons for a sneak attack—how shameless and despicable!"

Zhou Zhirou shouted.

So it really was a concealed weapon!

Lu Changsheng felt an icy fury shoot from the soles of his feet straight to the crown of his head. If not for the Creation Devouring Heaven Cauldron blocking them, he would probably have already become a corpse!

"Today, I will kill you!"

Lu Changsheng's gaze was icy. The Dragon Elephant Spirit within his chest erupted once more with astonishing power.

Roar!

The dragon-elephant fist projection ahead suddenly let out a furious howl that shattered the heavens.

The golden giant fist, which had been fiercely contending with the Sky-Splitting Sacred Lion Claw and whose light had already dimmed somewhat, suddenly erupted with golden divine radiance ten times more dazzling and a hundred times more tyrannical than before!

"Break for me!"

Boom!

With a muffled thunderclap, the dark crimson lion claw was instantly crushed into scattered motes of light by the Dragon Elephant Divine Fist's power, like withered wood being pulled apart!

Then, beneath Qin Lie's utterly terrified gaze, the Dragon Elephant Divine Fist did not lose any of its force as it smashed toward him with overwhelming momentum!

Boom!

"Ah!"

With a scream, Qin Lie's body was instantly blasted into a mist of blood by that punch!

Uproar!

At that instant, the entire plaza erupted into commotion. Countless martial artists were so stunned that they could not speak.

Qin Lie had actually been killed?!

"Lie'er—!!!"

The next moment, a roar brimming with endless grief, venom, and madness exploded from the Qin Family's platform, like the shriek of an evil ghost from the Nine Netherworlds!

"You little beast! I want you to pay with your life!!!"

Qin Tianba's killing intent soared to the heavens. He instantly transformed into a crimson bloody shadow that tore through the sky, carrying boundless rage and the terrifying pressure of the sixth level of Divine Palace Realm as he crashed fiercely toward Lu Changsheng at the center of the arena like a falling meteor!

"Qin Tianba! How dare you!"

Zhou Qingtian shouted coldly. The powerful pressure of the fifth level of Divine Palace Realm immediately erupted from his body as well, and he transformed into a streak of light to meet him head-on.

Boom!!!

At the center of the plaza, the spiritual power of two Divine Palace Realm experts collided violently. A savage energy storm instantly swept outward, completely overturning the already battered arena as countless shards of stone shot in all directions like cannonballs!

"Hmph! Zhou Qingtian, hand over that brat! I will grind his bones to dust and tear his corpse into ten thousand pieces!"

Qin Tianba roared.

"Qin Tianba, the outcome between the two great families has already been decided today. From now on, the Crimson Fire Origin Copper mine belongs to my Zhou Family. Little Friend Lu has rendered great service to my Zhou Family. This old man will never hand him over to you!"

Zhou Qingtian sneered.

"Dream on!"

"Zhou Qingtian! Your Zhou Family will also be buried with my son today!"

Qin Tianba looked like a mad demon, his eyes bloodshot and his killing intent chilling.

Then, Qin Tianba suddenly turned his gaze to one side and said,

"Blood Demon Ancestor! If you do not act now, when will you?!"

Whoosh!

As soon as his words fell, a stream of blood shot out like a bloody arrow, turning into a gaunt figure shrouded in a wide blood-red cloak. Like a ghost, he appeared soundlessly at Qin Tianba's side.

Two crimson points of light lit up beneath the cloak, like demonic eyes peering from an abyss, locking onto Zhou Qingtian.

At the same time, a thick stench of blood spread through the air.

"Heh heh heh... Patriarch Zhou, this old man has come today specifically to send your Zhou Family... on its final journey!"

The Blood Demon Ancestor said sinisterly.

"Blood Demon Ancestor?!"

Zhou Qingtian's expression changed.

The Blood Demon Sect! The Blood Demon Ancestor!

The Blood Demon Sect was an exceptionally evil demonic sect. He had never expected Qin Tianba to be colluding with them!

So regardless of the outcome of the battle between the two great families, Qin Tianba had long harbored the intention of exterminating the Zhou Family!

At that moment, Zhou Qingtian's expression could not help but change slightly. The Blood Demon Ancestor was no weakling—he was also at the fifth level of Divine Palace Realm. Now that he had joined forces with the Qin Family, the Zhou Family would likely find it difficult to withstand them today...

"Blood Demon Ancestor, hold off Zhou Qingtian. As for that brat, leave him to me. I will personally avenge Lie'er!"

Qin Tianba said grimly.

"Heh heh heh..."

Boom!

The Blood Demon Ancestor gave a sinister laugh, then transformed into a streak of bloodlight and instantly began a fierce battle with Zhou Qingtian.

"You little beast! Give me your life!"

Qin Tianba's gaze was cold and sinister as his aura directly locked onto Lu Changsheng.

Lu Changsheng's expression also grew grave. Qin Tianba's cultivation had long since entered the sixth level of Divine Palace Realm!

However, his expression quickly returned to calm. After all, he had his own trump cards. If Qin Tianba insisted on killing him today, Lu Changsheng would not mind making the old bastard regret it!

Whoosh!

Suddenly, Qin Tianba's figure flashed like a ghostly phantom, piercing through the void in an instant and arriving like an afterimage. He appeared directly before Lu Changsheng in the blink of an eye.

Lu Changsheng's pupils contracted as he instinctively activated the Dragon Elephant Golden Body. Dazzling golden light immediately erupted from his flesh!

Then, Lu Changsheng directly pushed the Dragon Elephant Golden Body's defensive power to its limit, layer upon layer of ancient divine patterns appearing across the golden body.

"Hmph!"

Qin Tianba snorted coldly and struck out with his palm. The terrifying force contained in that palm smashed fiercely against the Dragon Elephant Golden Body.

Boom—

With a muffled bang, that terrifying palm strike actually left a deep palm print on the chest of Lu Changsheng's golden body.

The terrifying force of the palm instantly pierced through the Dragon Elephant Golden Body's defenses!

Pfft!

Lu Changsheng felt a violent pain in his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood. As though he had suffered a heavy blow, his body was sent flying backward, smashing straight through a stone-built viewing stand!
