Xuan Ning heard this and decisively sliced a bloody cut across his fingertip.
Qi Kong grinned, a sharp gleam flashing in his eyes.
"Xuan Aotian, though I do not know what method you used to evade the probing of our divine senses..."
"But now, it ends here!"
"Trace Blood to Its Source!"
Buzz!
The blood in Xuan Ning's hand was drawn out, transforming into an arc of light that flashed past Qi Kong's eyes.
Qi Kong's divine eyes were like lightning as he swiftly swept over the crowd below, quickly locking onto that burly man!
Found you!
Qi Kong's eyes lit up, and he immediately shouted.
"It's him! Move!!"
Without another word, the three Saint Realm clan heads at his side all erupted into action.
Overwhelming saintly might soared into the heavens, and one of them shouted.
"Xuan Aotian, let's see where you can run today!"
"Seal Heaven, Lock Earth!" Another immediately activated the array.
Even when facing a junior in the Undying Realm, the ancient clan heads showed no mercy whatsoever.
The ancient scripture of the Dark Era was exceedingly strange. Even in the hands of someone in the Undying Realm, it was not something to be taken lightly!
Even a lion used its full strength to hunt a rabbit; excessive contempt would only leave endless future troubles!
"Rumble—"
The grand array crashed down with a thunderous roar that shook heaven and earth.
This sudden turn of events caught everyone present completely off guard.
"An array?!"
"What's happening?!"
"The Qi Family head, and the Zhao Family, the Ming Family? What are they trying to do?!"
Layer upon layer of grand arrays rapidly rose.
In the blink of an eye, the entirety of Thousand Mechanisms Peak had become an airtight wall!
Countless immensely thick spiritual energy chains intertwined and coiled around one another, as though they had sealed off heaven and earth itself.
Primordial Death Array
Primordial Dragon Binding Array
Primordial Water Array
Three layers within and without, airtight and impenetrable.
Perhaps because Xuan Aotian's Destiny Value was now too low, he had lost the intelligence-reducing buff.
At this sight, even Su Chenxiao could not help but pause in surprise.
Awesome.
Su Chenxiao watched the four ancient clan heads charge into the crowd without reservation and unleash their Divine Might, then sighed.
"Truly ruthless..."
No wonder they had sworn with such certainty to him before.
With these three sets of arrays in place, let alone someone in the Undying Realm, even a Saint Realm peak expert would likely spill blood on the spot!
It was not only Su Chenxiao.
When the disguised Xuan Aotian below saw the three great arrays rise, his expression changed drastically!
Although he had long been prepared to reveal himself, he had not expected them to hold him in such high regard.
Xuan Aotian's expression was as ugly as if he had eaten shit.
He roared.
"Chiming, didn't you fucking say there was only one killing array?!"
"What are these other two things?!"
The spirit of the Black Ancient Scripture in his mind did not reply.
After seeming to fall silent for quite some time, it finally said faintly.
"Use the ancient scripture!"
"As long as you have the ancient scripture, no one will dare touch you!"
Facing the four Saint Realm mighty experts rushing to kill him, Xuan Aotian did not dare to be careless in the slightest.
His face was full of murderous intent as he shouted.
"Bastard! Do you really think I, Xuan Aotian, am made of clay?!"
"Black Ancient Scripture!"
Buzz!
Dense, ominous energy surged into the heavens, forcibly slamming into the ancient array above!
That strange, ominous aura began rapidly corroding the first Death Array.
Yet even so, beyond the Death Array stood the Dragon Binding Array and the Water Array. It was impossible to shatter them all in one breath and break out!
"Boom!" "Boom!"
The shadow of the Black Ancient Scripture's spirit appeared.
With a casual wave, the shadow fired hundreds of terrifying black divine rays toward Qi Kong and the others.
"Rumble!"
Qi Kong and the other three Saint Realm mighty experts all brought out treasures capable of isolating everything!
A shield as holy and flawless as jade appeared before Qi Kong. The black rays struck its surface, unleashing earth-shattering booms!
"Boom!"
The strange power continuously corroded and spread over the shield, faintly threatening to pass through it and reach his hand.
This strange power did not belong to the myriad heavens. If one were tainted by even the slightest trace, they would lose their reason, undergo mutation, and fall into a grotesque creature!
Even Saint Realm experts did not dare let it touch them in the slightest.
Seeing this, Qi Kong was so frightened that he hurriedly threw away the shield and immediately brought out another new shield he had prepared beforehand.
He laughed loudly.
"Hahaha! Brat of the Xuan Family, do you think that just because you can wield the power of the Dark Era's grotesque creatures, we will become timid and dare not touch you at all?!"
"How utterly laughable!"
"We did not come today to capture you, but to suppress and kill you, a traitor of the ancient clans, right here!"
"Everyone, attack!"
"Mount Tai Seal!"
As he spoke, the four Saint Realm mighty experts all activated their great divine abilities and moved to suppress Xuan Aotian!
Though the ancient scripture of the Dark Era was strange and terrifying, as long as they took care not to come into contact with it, there would be no problem.
Thus, they all used long-range methods, intending to kill him outright!
Xuan Aotian's expression was unsightly.
He had not expected this pack of shameless old things to be so thoroughly prepared. They used and discarded artifacts as though they cost nothing.
However...
"Do you think this is enough to deal with me, Xuan Aotian?!"
"Chiming!"
The shadow directly possessed Xuan Aotian from behind.
Xuan Aotian instantly seemed as though he had been injected with chicken blood. A terrifying radiance abruptly burst from within him and rapidly spread outward!
This ominous power was terrifying beyond measure, swiftly swallowing those Saint Realm divine abilities.
Qi Kong sneered repeatedly. With a defensive artifact shielding him from all contamination, he spoke.
"Struggling like a cornered beast!"
"I would like to see just how far that ancient scripture of the Dark Era can help you!"
"Sacred Mountain Seal!"
"Rumble, rumble—" Another heaven-piercing divine ability crashed down.
And at that moment.
Pain-filled groans and screams suddenly rang out throughout the area!
"Ah!!"
"Don't come near me!"
"Clan Head, save me!!"
Throughout the entire Dao Peak, strange energy spread rapidly like a tidal sea.
Though the Saint Realm mighty experts remained untouched.
The other juniors who had entered the Crimson Meteor Burial Ground had no way to resist this ominous power.
Hundreds upon thousands of people curled up on the ground in agony.
Their faces and bodies began to twist, while chunks of skin and flesh rotted and fell away from their bodies. They spat out large clots of black blood and mangled flesh.
Some rapidly grew covered in long hair, taking on the forms of demonic beasts.
Even worse, flesh wriggled as new arms stretched out from within their bodies, accompanied by agonized low growls.
"Roar..."
It was like a living hell, as though they were witnessing the birth of one strange creature after another from the Dark Era!
"This is..." Qi Kong's entire body trembled, his pupils steadily widening.
Xuan Aotian, however, walked through the center of the scene like a madman. The shadow floated behind him as he spread his arms and laughed without restraint, overflowing with monstrous wickedness.
At this moment, he was like the source of a plague. Wherever he passed, all life withered and mutated.
"Hahaha!"
"You can block it, but what about everyone else?"
"All of you, go! Hold them back!"
The pages of the Black Ancient Scripture before Xuan Aotian rapidly flipped open one after another.
All the cultivators corroded by that strange aura and mutated into monsters charged madly toward the four Saint Realm clan heads in the sky.
In the distance, dazzling golden quasi-Emperor power formed a barrier that isolated everything.
Xuan Ning's face darkened with rage when he saw this, and he wanted to rush forward.
"Xuan Aotian! This guy is now even more demonic than the demonic path itself!"
"What are you doing?" Su Chenxiao glanced at him faintly, a smile in his eyes.
"Just stay here and watch quietly."
Looking at the many cultivators in the distance who had been tainted by the strange aura and were constantly mutating.
Su Chenxiao patted the Death Soul Beast that was lazily lying in his hand and smiled faintly.
"Still sleeping?"
"Time to eat."
