Shehua and Zaochi / A Bunch of Hypocritical Bitches
"So decisive? I'd almost feel embarrassed to back out."
Kevin's eyes showed admiration, but the imperfection in her face caused Su Mei, who had some perfectionist tendencies, not only Affliction but also inner turmoil.
"These are all ambitious young people who are willing to give up everything for survival. Here's what we'll do: give you a fair chance to compete."
"You guys?" Su Mei was a little confused, and followed Kevin's gaze to Lin Zhaoyu, whose wound was bleeding red and white blood.
The second sword master was shocked to discover a distorted black phantom emerging from the corpse and heading straight for her spiritual sea of consciousness.
This is... possession?! Senior sister, you really can't even let anyone rest in peace even in death!
Su Mei's eyes widened in horror. She immediately focused her consciousness and launched a siege against the intruder, preparing to crush Lin Zhaoyu's soul.
However, the moment she focused her mind, the clanging sound of a sword came from the cave entrance, and the aggressive sound waves, like raging fire, instantly shattered her will.
Lin Zhaoyu's soul rushed in, relentlessly tearing at the Mental Power of this old enemy.
Finally, with an even stronger will to survive and someone's behind-the-scenes manipulation, Su Mei's eyes became empty, and her fragmented soul was completely devoured by Lin Zhaoyu.
However, before Lin Zhaoyu's soul could fully take over the body, a flame rose up and burned Su Mei's empty shell, along with the soul that was about to usurp her place, to ashes in one fell swoop.
"I promised to let her go, but I didn't promise to let you go..."
Kevin shrugged slightly, watching the two bodies turn to ashes. The souls that twisted and struggled in the flames also dissipated in a mournful wail, finally looking at the Avengers with venomous eyes.
To the survivors, hope and despair; to those who yearn for perfection, a necessary imperfection. You even drink a bowl of my watered-down chicken soup for life before you die—you should be satisfied.
The man waved his hand to disperse the ashes, and specks of earth vein energy emanated from them, flowing back into the Kunlun Dragon Vein.
"Borrowing and returning is a good habit." Kevin felt the pleasant dragon roar coming from the ley lines, nodded in satisfaction, and let his thoughts drift away.
Immediately, the message about the "abnormal change in the earth's energy in Canghai City" was transmitted to the Kunlun Dragon Vein by the Angel of Judgment.
Immediately, the tangible Earth Qi, visible to the naked eye, flowed through the tumor-like blood vessels within the mountain and into several withered accessory Branch Vein, restoring them to vitality.
Now, after destruction comes construction. Kevin senses that the earth vein power in the direction of Canghai City is stronger than before, and it will become a feng shui treasure land in the future. It can be said that he has turned misfortune into blessing.
Alright, the minor urban crisis has been perfectly resolved. Time to clean up the mess left behind.
Kevin locked onto Ma Yanqing's location, his body rising into the air, a cold smile playing on his lips.
You've all been unconscious for so long, did you really think I was just probing your meager memories?
Don't worry, I've left you something nice. I'll give it to you in a grand way when we meet!
As the angel's wings unfurled, before it could accelerate, the surrounding earth's ley lines stirred, and the rock walls on either side parted on their own, revealing five people gathered tensely at the end of the passage.
Is this a case of "the righteous receiving much help"? Kevin understood. This was the dragon vein's consciousness expressing gratitude after it was repaired, and also hoping that he could quickly eliminate the maggots from its body.
Lin Zhaoyu and Su Mei are finished!
The moment the figure of the Judgment Angel appeared, the hearts of everyone gathered at the Sword Dancing Ground sank to the bottom.
At the same time, their eyes met simultaneously, they nodded to each other, and moved closer to the Gate of the Heavenly Realm.
"Everyone, if we hesitate now, we'll all be doomed before the Heavenly Palace descends! Let's fight!"
Knowing how terrifying the person before him was, Ma Yanqing's face contorted with rage as he pressed the Jade Token into the [Gate of the Heavenly Realm] that connected to the Great Wormhole Bridge.
In an instant, a seven-colored arc of light pierced through the heavens and earth, bursting forth from above and striking the main body of Kunlun Mountain.
Instantly, the mountain collapsed and the earth cracked, with rocks flying through the air. Thick black smoke billowed out, and a spatial passage, seemingly leading directly to the deepest hell, was carved into the mountainside.
"Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar!"
One, two, three... hundreds of hideous figures squeezed out from the newly formed Spatial Rift, instantly filling the earth and sky!
Some have four wings and long bodies, resembling snakes; some are as green as bamboo, with bird bodies and human faces; some have six legs and four wings, bulky and faceless; some have python heads and human bodies, covered in black scales...
Fei Yi... Jumang... Di Jiang... Gonggong!
Kevin stared at the strange yet familiar shapes of the monsters, his lips moving in a dry voice.
"The Primordial Great Monsters, the Ancient Sorcerer Gods... so this is the Kunlun Beast Tide!"
P. S.: My hometown is in the North China Plain. I just resigned from my teaching position in a southern city before the Lunar New Year, intending to return to the inland areas to develop my career. However, I encountered the epidemic and couldn't leave. My family conscripted me into working in the fields. I do have a lot of land, 25 mu, which will keep me entertained for a while during the busy farming season.
Chapter 775, Section 811 Hua She Zao Chi
In the Kunlun Secret Realm, clouds swirled in the sky, and the nine [Gate of the Heavenly Realm] each drew in seven-colored immortal light, which converged in mid-air to form a spiritual energy vortex that pierced through heaven and earth.
The Kunlun Mountain, whose solid structure had been blasted open to create a spatial passage, were billowing with thick smoke, and black water and lava were flowing. Amidst the shaking and tumbling of rocks, the teeth-grinding sounds of climbing were constantly approaching.
"Hiss... hiss... hiss..."
A wailing sound, like the cry of an infant, followed, and dozens of monsters with human faces, jackal bodies, snake tails, and wings sprouted from their ribs burst out of the gap.
Wherever it passed, the nearby osmanthus and magnolia trees withered and broke under the lash of its tail, and the rocks were rotted into swamp mud, constantly bubbling with green slurry.
The swampy, rocky terrain seemed to connect to some kind of spatial passage, from which hundreds of ferocious beast claws covered in red and black scales emerged.
The monster, with a human face and a beast's body, fangs three feet long, and wielding a square shield and a metal spear, easily leaped out of the swamp and merged with the previous human-bodied, snake-tailed monster, charging together towards the mountaintop.
Hua She! Zao Chi!
The legendary giant beasts from the mountains and seas are actually real! And they were all stuffed into Pangu Tomb!
The five men on the mountaintop, amidst this massive charge, were pale-faced, filled with disbelief, and their mouths tasted bitter.
With wolves in front and tigers behind, this is truly a predicament.
The [Gate of the Heavenly Realm] is a secret instrument of the Tiandao Palace capable of piercing through space and establishing interstellar routes. It bears the dual responsibility of connecting the Lieyang Star and anchoring the Pangu Tomb.
Originally, this thing was supposed to be able to guide the gods of the Heavenly Palace to descend while simultaneously breaching the spatial defense barrier of Pangu Tomb, maintaining a delicate balance.
With just a little attention, the task of "unearthing Pangu Tomb" can be completed. Several people take turns on duty, and there is still time to absorb dragon blood from the Kunlun earth veins to practice their skills, which can be described as killing several birds with one stone.
However, driven by insatiable greed, in order to extract more planetary energy from the Kunlun ley lines, they did not hesitate to drain the earth's energy from Canghai City, awaken the Titan behemoth, and interfere with the response of the Deno star system and others to the Kunlun anomaly.
As fate would have it, the Judgment Angel followed the trail and broke in, causing the entire plan of the Tai Xu Seven Swords to fall apart.
Knowing how terrifying this monster was, Ma Yanqing persuaded the remaining female disciples to abandon the plan of holding out for reinforcements, which was fraught with too many uncertainties, after the three sword masters had fallen one after another.
Recalling the reticent expressions of the people from the Tiandao Palace regarding Pangu Tomb, he decided to temporarily close the spatial anchor between the Gate of the Heavenly Realm and the Lieyang Star, and proceed with full-power excavation of Pangu Tomb.
Using the things inside to drive away wolves and tigers, they never expected that these beasts would choose the Gate of the Heavenly Realm as their first target.
"Heaven, Earth, and Man, the sun and moon shining in harmony!"
Seeing hundreds of monsters closing in, Ling Shuang, the fifth sword master who was the first to come to her senses, and her inseparable Miao sisters stepped into the Three Powers position in perfect unison, unleashing their sword energy.
The nine Gate of the Heavenly Realm swallowed the converged torrent of sword energy, and in mid-air, distinct black and white phantoms of the sun and moon gradually materialized.
But as the gaze draws closer, onlookers will discover that those so-called rays of sunlight and moonlight are clearly swords of qi formed entirely from the light of the three powers.
"Sword formation, activate!"
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Located at the center of the Human Spirit position, the Fifth Sword Master, responsible for coordination and dispatch, changed hand seals, and then shouted in a low voice, and thousands of qi swords crashed down from the sky like a meteor shower falling to the ground.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Under the rain of swords, the cedar and jade trees, which were already half destroyed, were covered in wood chips, their trunks collapsed, and rocks and dust flew everywhere on the rocky slopes.
The leading Hua She, though scrambling and dodging with incredible speed, were all struck by the qi sword under the all-pervasive sunlight.
Their limbs and flesh were scattered everywhere, or their colorful organs were strewn all over the ground; in an instant, seven or eight of them were lost.
Even when cut to pieces, as long as they don't directly hit the skull, these Hua She remain lively and energetic.
The monsters wriggled and bent down to swallow the pieces of flesh. Pink buds kept sprouting from the broken limbs and gaps, demonstrating an amazing self-healing ability.
The attack of the Mythical Beasts was temporarily halted. However, before the four sword masters could even deliver a blow, the Zao Chi, covered in red and black armor plates, split into two rows, raised their square shields, and swooped forward.
A winding "temporary passage" quickly took shape. The dense barrage of sword energy struck the monsters, only to be deflected by their smooth, hard scales and shields made of an unknown metal.
With the threat of sword energy bombardment temporarily lifted, more and more "snake people" known as "Hua She" emerged from the spatial rift.
They transformed the environment in batches, turning the rocky land into a landscape suitable for the two kinds of Shanhai Beasts to roam and fight.
At the same time, the snake-men, through the gaps in their Zao Chi shields, raised their hands and shot out streams of pale green water arrows. The jade trees and cassia trees that were hit by these arrows rotted and died at a visible speed.
As the impact struck the space in front of the Nine Gate of the Heavenly Realm and the cloud barrier, it hissed and emitted a pungent green smoke that spread everywhere.
Even more remarkably, after a running start, the Zao Chi Beastmen, with their extraordinary arm strength, hurled their spears toward the mountaintop.
Although it was shot down by the defense system of the Gate of the Heavenly Realm, Ma Yanqing's eyelids twitched as he stared at the spear that had pierced through the Kunlun soil and rocks with unstoppable force, and carefully examined the reflection and texture of the material.
Damn it! Nine Heavens Profound Iron! Yes, this thing has another name in the Tiandao Palace: Dark alloy! It's just that judging from its appearance, it has more impurities.
Indeed, these somewhat crude standard weapons are not as good as the uniforms of the Heavenly Palace Imperial Guard.
But these giant beasts from the mountains and seas had formed a cohesive system and coordinated their different military units. They didn't look like a bunch of ignorant Beast at all; they actually resembled an army!
As time went on, the troubles went far beyond these.
After the Gate of the Heavenly Realm pierced through the outer seal of Pangu Tomb at full power, as the binding force gradually weakened, more enormous mountain and sea beasts and Ancient Sorcerer Gods, whose energy fluctuations directly stirred up Spiritual Energy Tide, emerged one by one from the cracks spreading from the spatial gap, their figures almost blotting out the sky.
"Water, fire, wind, and thunder, the four elements govern! Transform!"
The remaining four sword masters, seeing that they were about to be surrounded by the horde of Mythical Beasts, could no longer be wary of Kevin, who had not yet shown himself. They immediately joined their swords together, their auras flowing seamlessly.
Amplified by the energy of the nine Gate of the Heavenly Realm, the surrounding black water, magma, gales, and thunderclouds seemed to come alive, coalescing into shape.
On the northern slope of the mountain range, the Black Tortoise, a creature with a dragon's head and a turtle's body made of rock, carries the Black Water Serpent on its back and takes a step forward.
Immediately, a gravity field spread around Xuanwu, and any Zao Chi and Hua She that came into contact with the black water flowing from the surrounding rock crevices were quickly corroded into piles of white bones.
Dark red magma exploded in the southern mountain pass, and a Vermilion Bird, having absorbed ample fiery energy, soared into the sky with a cry.
With its wings spread out, a rain of fire filled the air. Several Hua She tried to ascend using its wings were instantly ignited into grayish-white fluff upon contact.
At the same time, a fierce wind swept in from the east, and a scaly Azure Dragon with its scales and claws fully revealed swooped down, sweeping dozens of unknown Shanhai Beasts into the air, shredding them into a bloody pulp, and raining down a foul-smelling bloody rain.
Meanwhile, lightning flashed and arcs of electricity exploded in the western clouds, accompanied by deafening roars of tigers and thunder. The fierce god of life and death, as it charged and darted, broke apart the monsters that had just broken free of their seals, reducing them to their basic particles.
However, while being entangled by the first Kunlun Beast Tide for a moment, the arrival of the second wave made the Four Symbols Sacred Beast incarnations, which had been showing off their might just moments before, seem as insignificant as puppies and kittens!
A large "wave" of basilisks. jpg
P. S.: Seriously, there really is a huge wave of serpent monsters.
Chapter 776, Section 812: A Group of Bitches Who Act Hypocritically
Zhu Rong, with a beast's head and a human body, covered in red scales and Zhu Rong fire snakes piercing his ears, extended a colossal hand tens of meters high from Void Rift in the heart of Kunlun.
The Vermilion Bird, which had been hovering in the air, was caught off guard and crashed directly into it.
Encountering the mythical ancestor who truly wielded fire, a sacred beast embodying energy, its wings were torn apart by the constricting giant hand, and its body shattered as lava poured down.
Zhu Rong, barely managing to poke half his head out, opened his beastly mouth, which was covered with sharp serrated teeth, and roughly stuffed the torn-up Vermilion Bird into his mouth to chew.
At this moment, the originally dull scales gradually took on a bright, fiery red color, and the body, which was trapped two-thirds of the way through the spatial passage, moved upwards slightly by a few inches.
Similarly, as the Imaginary Space of Kunlun Mountain continued to collapse, the rock mass disintegrated, the river flow stopped, and various body parts struggled out from within.
Some of the first to escape, in Shanhai Beasts, scattered and fled, frantically retreating from the jungle of bodies with their arms twisted and menacing heads protruding.
Even so, the fleeing novice Shanhai Beasts, with their casually waving giant hands, began their encirclement and capture.
They might simply smash these low-level monsters at the bottom of the monster chain into a pile of minced meat and devour their essence.
Or they would pick up their prey, stuff it into their mouth along with the bones, flesh, and fur, and swallow it whole.
The sickening sound of bones shattering and the mournful cries of the low-level Shanhai Beasts before their death sent chills down one's spine...
The monsters that had managed to escape the jungle of the giants' bodies charged even more frantically toward the nine Gate of the Heavenly Realm, and consciously began to coordinate their unit attacks.
The spirits of the Wind Dragon, Lightning Tiger, and Black Tortoise, which guard the other three directions, are missing one link, causing their operation to be sluggish.
They were quickly either overwhelmed by the charge of the Shanhai Beasts, or torn apart and absorbed by parts of the giant god's body that appeared out of nowhere.
"We can't hold on any longer! Sushang, have you sent word to the Princess?"
Having fled all the way, Ma Yanqing saw signs of disintegration in the Kunlun Mountain and used words to provoke Li Sushang, who was somewhat distraught at the rear.
