Holy Cult's Siege

The lingering power of the tenfold spiritual amplification still surged within Fang Gang's sea of consciousness, his mind's mirror like polished glaze, light held within.

Fang Gang crushed the last speck of residual black ash from the pollution source in his palm, feeling the surging, brand-new strength within him—late-stage Marrow Cleansing Realm!

The power of breakthrough and rebirth was like a slumbering volcano awakening, a tempestuous sense of strength filling every inch of his muscles and bones.

However, the crisis was not yet over.

From the darkness at the edge of the sinkhole, shadowy figures and cultists clad in black robes silently emerged. Their numbers were like a black tide, completely surrounding the massive sinkhole.

The cold, chaotic aura intertwined, forming a suffocating pressure.

Three terrifying auras, far surpassing those of ordinary cultists, locked onto Fang Gang at the bottom of the pit like three icy poison thorns.

On the left, a gaunt old man, as thin as a skeleton, held a twisted, dripping, bone-white mourning stick that oozed thick black liquid. It was the Phantom Sound Priest, previously severely injured by Fang Gang!

Her aura was unstable, but the venom in her eyes was almost tangible.

On the right, a dense buzzing emanated from beneath the black robe. Countless tiny venomous insects crawled out from his sleeve, gathering in the air to form a chilling swarm of insects.

The Insect Gu Priest's body seemed to be composed of the insect swarm. His aura was ferocious, clearly having recovered significantly.

Directly ahead, a figure as sturdy as an iron tower took a step forward, the ground shaking slightly.

In his hand was not the pale green saber from before, but a much larger bronze war axe, entwined with dense, blood-colored vengeful souls!

The bronze armor on the Ghost General Priest's chest, which had been caved in, was crudely repaired. His eyes burned with ferocious killing intent.

"The Holy Lord commands..." the Phantom Sound Priest's hoarse, venomous voice drifted on the cold wind, like the wails of a hundred ghosts, "Execute... the bald Ming Wang!"

"Going to die?"

Fang Gang slowly raised his head, his gaze sweeping across the dense encirclement. It finally settled on the three great priests. The corners of his mouth curved into a smile that held no warmth. "Might as well use you guys... to test out my new fists!"

"Arrogant!"

The Ghost General Priest roared like thunder, the sound waves causing loose stones to fall. "Take this axe! Blood Soul Splitting Earth!"

His massive body surged forward like a battering ram, both hands raising the bronze war axe entwined with blood-colored vengeful souls!

On the axe blade, a dense blood-red light surged. Countless twisted vengeful souls let out piercing shrieks, condensing into a blood-colored axe aura that tore through the air!

With the might to cleave mountains and the venom to freeze souls, it descended upon Fang Gang at the bottom of the pit! A full-power strike from a peak Grade A!

Almost simultaneously!

"Myriad Guvs Devour Heaven!" the Insect Gu Priest shrieked, striking his staff on the ground!

The buzzing swarm of insects in the air instantly expanded, transforming into a black torrent composed of billions of venomous insects, their metallic sheen glinting, their mouths ferocious. Carrying a pungent, fishy wind and a poison that corroded all things, it swept towards Fang Gang from the side like a breached black celestial river!

Wherever the torrent of venomous insects passed, the air emitted a "sizzling" corrosive sound!

"Sorrowful Soul Lure: Burying Heart!" The Soul Guiding Mourning Stick in the Phantom Sound Priest's hand shook frantically. A silent mental shriek mixed with the thick black liquid, transforming into countless vengeful ghostly faces, all fangs and claws, filled with despair and temptation. Ignoring spatial distance, they lunged directly at Fang Gang's head!

This was a more insidious mental assault than before, directly targeting the weaknesses of the mind!

The three great priests, attacking from three sides! Physical, potent poison, and mental! A deadly trap reappeared!

Facing this encirclement, more dangerous than the one outside the City God Temple, Fang Gang's eyes, far from showing fear, instead burned with fierce fighting spirit!

"World Shaking—Dragon Fist!"

A low growl, like an ancient dragon's roar, exploded at the bottom of the pit!

Fang Gang clenched his right fist, and the surging blood and qi of his late-stage Marrow Cleansing Realm erupted!

It was no longer golden-red, but carried a hint of an unparalleled, fierce, dark golden hue, as if it could tear through the firmament!

The dragon-like force surged and roared within his bones. The Nine Yang True Fire condensed, and the shock force of Eight Extremes! Prison Quake! was infused into the fist's intent!

With a single punch!

The target was precisely that blood-colored vengeful soul axe aura, the most imposing, descending directly upon him!

Above the fist, the dark golden blood and qi mixed with the supreme yang true fire, compressed and rotated, faintly forming the blurry, roaring phantom of a dragon's head!

The dragon's head opened its massive maw, carrying the overbearing will to shatter rules and tear through the void!

BOOM—!!!!

The dark golden dragon head fist aura fiercely collided with the blood-colored vengeful soul axe aura!

There was no stalemate!

CRACKLE!!!

A piercing shattering sound, like glass breaking!

That seemingly indestructible blood-colored axe aura, entwined with countless vengeful souls, instantly shattered like paper the moment it came into contact with the dark golden dragon head fist aura!

Countless blood-colored vengeful souls, without even time to scream, were instantly purified and annihilated by the supreme yang force and annihilating will contained within the dark golden fist aura!

The violent fist aura's momentum did not decrease. It fiercely slammed into the main body of the Ghost General Priest's massive Soul Splitting Blood Axe!

Search for the book title and can't find it? Try searching for the author, maybe the name has changed!

CLANG—BOOM!!!!

It sounded like thunderclap from the nine heavens!

The bronze giant axe's blade instantly cracked!

The axe body twisted and deformed!

An unstoppable, immense force surged through the axe handle and into the Ghost General Priest's arms!

"Pfft—!!!"

The Ghost General Priest's sleeves exploded, and his muscles and bones let out an agonizing sound of shattering!

His massive body was hit like a speeding train's locomotive, sent flying backward like a cannonball. Blood gushed from his mouth as he slammed into the dense mass of cultists in the distance, instantly crushing a portion of them, their fates unknown!

One punch! The Ghost General Priest, wielding a heavy weapon, was disabled!

And in the same instant Fang Gang blasted the Ghost General away!

The torrent of venomous insects that swept over him fiercely crashed against the aura of bloody energy that naturally rose around Fang Gang, mixed with a dark golden sheen!

Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!

Like billions of moths flying into an incinerator!

Countless venomous insects, glinting with cold light, collided with that extremely yang, extremely firm aura of bloody energy, imbued with a will to crush, and were instantly burned to ashes!

The corrosive black mist of potent venom couldn't even get within a meter of Fang Gang's body before it was instantly blown away and purified by the scorching heatwaves!

The Insect Gu Priest let out a shrill insectoid cry. Its body, composed of venomous insects, turned large patches of black and began to collapse, its aura instantly weakening!

At the same time!

The Phantom Sound Priest's silent mental shriek and venomous ghastly face fiercely crashed into Fang Gang's sea of consciousness!

Within his sea of consciousness, his mental mirror, made of glazed splendor, shone brightly!

Although his mental amplification began to wane, his willpower at this moment was still far greater than before!

That ghastly face, capable of sinking Grade A powerhouses, struck the glazed mental mirror like an egg hitting diamond!

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Countless ghastly faces instantly exploded and dissipated!

The Phantom Sound Priest felt as if he'd been struck by a heavy hammer. The soul-guiding staff flew from his grasp, and he himself was violently flung back like a kite with a broken string by an invisible mental backlash, crashing into a large rock and falling into a complete coma!

In a flash of lightning!

The combined assault of the three great priests—broken!

Fang Gang stood in place, slowly retracting his fist.

The dark golden aura of bloody energy around him slowly receded, revealing his lean, powerful physique.

The wounds on his arms had already healed by more than half under his potent vitality, leaving only faint traces.

The bottom of the crater was utterly silent!

The surviving cultists and ghostly creatures, looking at the figure standing like a demon god, at the three instantly incapacitated priests, their eyes were filled with boundless terror!

Unknowingly, someone let out a terrified scream, which acted like igniting a fuse. The encirclement instantly collapsed!

All the cultists and ghostly creatures, like startled rabbits, screamed and fled madly in all directions!

Fang Gang did not pursue these insignificant mobs. His gaze pierced through the chaotic fleeing figures and fell upon a figure that had appeared at the edge of the sinkhole at some unknown time.

It was a gaunt old man dressed in a blood-red robe, leaning on a staff carved from white bones, with a bizarre scepter topped with a pulsing heart.

He didn't exude any terrifying aura, but his pair of clouded eyes seemed to contain oceans of corpses and blood, calmly observing Fang Gang at the bottom of the pit.

The Blood Sacrifice Priest! The leader of the Nightmare Holy Cult's Twelve Priests! A true S-grade powerhouse!

"Baldy Ming Wang..."

The Blood Sacrifice Priest's voice was dry and hoarse, like two bones grinding together. "You are very good... The Holy Lord greatly admires your... Vessel body..."

He slowly raised the white bone scepter in his hand. The bizarre heart embedded at the top, still pulsing, suddenly emitted a thick, unshakeable blood-red light!

"Therefore... your flesh and blood... will become the best sacrifice for the Holy Lord's return!"

The blood-red heart at the top of the scepter suddenly pulsed!

An invisible force field, carrying a dense scent of blood and the rules of death, instantly enveloped the entire sinkhole!

All the cultists and ghostly creatures who were fleeing suddenly stiffened, then, as if all their life force had been drained, instantly turned into mummified corpses, collapsing into dust!

The essence of their flesh and blood transformed into wisps of bloody spiritual energy, surging madly towards the heart at the top of the white bone scepter!

Blood Sacrifice Domain—activated!
