Killing Intent Intimidation, White Emperor Domain, Devouring the Aura of Slaughter!

As the young general in white at the front took the lead on horseback.

Boom, boom, boom—!

The Wu'an City army all began to charge, the sound of hooves rolling in like muffled thunder, mingled with bursts of stirring horn calls...

By contrast, inside Wu Ping City, the atmosphere was so oppressive it nearly stopped people from breathing.

After all, everyone knew the gap in combat strength between the armies of Heaven Dou and the Star Luo Empire. They simply were not on the same level.

If they had not relied on the city walls to hold firm before, Wu Ping City would long since have been destroyed by Wu'an City countless times over.

But now.

The North Gate had already fallen, and the fortified city they had depended on now lay completely open to the Star Luo Empire. How could these Heaven Dou soldiers not despair?

Even Wu Ping City's City Lord, Li Jinglong, was no exception.

At that moment, he stood atop the gate tower, his face dark as iron, his brows furrowed deeply.

Yet even though he knew full well they were no match, if they wanted him, Li Jinglong, to surrender? Absolutely impossible!

"All soldiers, heed my command! Follow me down from the city wall and fight these Star Luo barbarians to the death!"

"Today, either you die, or I perish! Kill!"

Immediately, five Soul Rings lit up beneath the old general's feet, and a Fire Fox Martial Soul appeared behind him as he took the lead and leaped down from the city wall.

On the other side.

Dai Chengfeng had already ridden his horse to Zhu Fan's side. "Uncle, I'm not too late, am I?"

Hearing this, Zhu Fan looked at the Wu'an army pouring into the city in orderly ranks past his side, his expression stirred with emotion...

He understood that his bitter, stubborn defense had not been in vain. All the effort he had poured in had finally been rewarded.

For a moment, Zhu Fan laughed with incomparable excitement. "Hahaha, not late, not late!"

With that, he patted Dai Chengfeng on the shoulder.

"Chengfeng, oh Chengfeng!"

"Your uncle has no choice but to admire you. Everything really was within your grasp!"

"Now that we have already taken the North Gate, Wu Ping City... is nothing more than a lamb waiting to be slaughtered!"

Dai Chengfeng smiled and nodded. "Naturally!"

Then he turned his head and looked toward the Vanguard Death Soldiers, who were drenched in blood and now numbered fewer than two hundred. He gave them a deep bow. "Gentlemen, thank you for using your blood to hold open a path. All of you are heroes of my Star Luo Empire!"

"I, Dai Chengfeng, will not forget your sacrifice!"

When they heard Dai Chengfeng's words, they were first slightly stunned.

Then one man shook his head through tears, choking as he said, "F-Fourth Prince, I'm no hero. I'm not that great. I just wanted... I just wanted to make those Heaven Dou Empire bastards pay their blood debt in blood!"

"My pa died at their hands. As his son, how could I not avenge him?"

"I should be thanking you here, Fourth Prince, for giving me a chance at revenge!"

"Fourth Prince, me too. My older brother also died in..."

"And me..."

Looking at the simple, honest people denying it, Dai Chengfeng said, "All great deeds, all great purposes, begin from something insignificant."

"Everyone, your glorious achievements will be recorded in the annals of history!"

"All of you are heroes in my eyes!"

As he spoke, Dai Chengfeng gave them a solemn military salute. "Now, in my capacity as the Fourth Prince of the Star Luo Empire, I order you to go to the rear and rest. Leave everything else to me!"

"You have already given enough!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Looking at everyone whose eyes were filled with emotion, Dai Chengfeng smiled and nodded to them one by one.

Only after they had all left.

Dai Chengfeng turned his head and looked at the main force that had already completely charged into Wu Ping City. "Uncle, how are you? Can you still fight?!"

In an instant, the eight Soul Rings on Zhu Fan's body flared brightly once more, releasing an aura that chilled the heart.

"Naturally!"

"You brat, don't you look down on your uncle!"

Dai Chengfeng laughed loudly. "Good. Then, Uncle, accompany me for another round!"

Immediately, Zhu Fan mounted a warhorse and charged into the city together with Dai Chengfeng.

Very soon, Dai Chengfeng had already ridden his warhorse to the front of the formation, and a yellow Soul Ring lit up beneath his feet.

"First Soul Skill: Innate Geng Metal Qi!"

Golden Innate Geng Metal Qi coiled around him...

At once, the spear in Dai Chengfeng's hand became incomparably sharp. His fleshly body could now almost completely ignore attacks from ordinary weapons.

But this was different.

This time, within the Innate Geng Metal Qi, blood-colored Thunder of Slaughter flickered from time to time.

And opposite him...

A Heaven Dou Empire soldier charging toward Dai Chengfeng revealed the two yellow Soul Rings beneath his feet.

"Second Soul Skill: Earth Splitting..."

However, just as his Soul Skill was about to be unleashed...

In the next second...

Dai Chengfeng merely frowned slightly, and in an instant, the murderous aura around him, so dense it seemed almost solid, pressed down on the Heaven Dou soldier like a tide.

He suddenly froze in place, his long saber stalled in midair, unable to move even a single finger.

As he looked at Dai Chengfeng, the Heaven Dou soldier's eyes were filled with confusion, but even more with shock and fear...

He had no idea why he suddenly couldn't move?!

However, Dai Chengfeng did not hesitate in the slightest. With a sweep of the spear in his hand, he easily knocked him from his horse.

"Not bad!"

"As expected of the embryonic form of Divine Slaughter's Domain. Even if it isn't complete yet, it's already showing its edge!"

Dai Chengfeng nodded in satisfaction. Then he looked at the soldiers before him and roared, killing intent surging, "Soldiers, why have we come here?!"

"For revenge!"

"To avenge all the fallen soldiers of our Wu'an City!"

"..."

In an instant, another purple Soul Ring rose beneath Dai Chengfeng's feet. "I shall sever the dragon's feet and chew the dragon's flesh, so that by morning it cannot return, by night it cannot lie down... A blood debt must be repaid in blood! Leave not one alive!!!"

"Second Soul Skill: White Emperor Domain!"

As the words fell...

Behind Dai Chengfeng, the phantom of that Emperor White Tiger descending the mountain appeared once more, and boundless momentum spread from around it like ripples, covering a hundred meters.

In that instant, even the raindrops falling from the sky seemed to pause.

At the same time, Dai Chengfeng could clearly feel that his strength, defense, Soul Power, and other attributes had all received a certain degree of amplification.

Moreover, Dai Chengfeng discovered...

This time, the Emperor White Tiger phantom seemed especially excited. Its eyes were crimson, and countless wisps of dark-red slaughter aura invisible to outsiders...

At this moment, as though drawn by some kind of power, they were continuously flowing toward it.

And as that slaughter aura poured in, its figure grew clearer and clearer, its originally illusory outline gradually becoming solid.

It was as if in the next second, it would transform from a phantom into a physical body and descend upon this battlefield.

"So this is devouring slaughter aura?"

For a moment, as Dai Chengfeng watched the Emperor White Tiger's phantom constantly solidify, a trace of anticipation flashed through his eyes.

"I'm really curious..."

"If it absorbs enough slaughter aura to descend completely, what will it look like? And just how strong will it be?"

However, before he could think too much, another group of Heaven Dou Empire soldiers opposite him shouted and charged over.

A cold smile curved Dai Chengfeng's lips. He tightened his grip on the spear in his hand and drove the Innate Geng Metal Qi to its fullest.

Roar—!

At the same time, the Emperor White Tiger phantom let out an earth-shaking roar, causing countless warhorses to neigh in panic.

And amid the lingering echoes of the Emperor White Tiger's roar, Dai Chengfeng took advantage of the enemy's unsteady footing and charged straight into their formation.

With the enhancement of Innate Geng Metal Qi, the spear in his hand was unstoppable.

He wove through the crowd...

Every swing brought up a spray of blood.

"Kill!!!"

The slaughter continued. Beneath the heavy rain, the ground of Wu Ping City had been completely dyed red, rainwater and blood converging into small streams.

Until...

Roar—!

Another tiger roar rang out, and joy suddenly flashed in Dai Chengfeng's eyes. "The slaughter aura... it's absorbed enough?"

"Careful!"

Yet at that moment, Zhu Fan not far away suddenly cried out in alarm in Dai Chengfeng's direction.

From who knew where...

A flaming claw shot straight toward Dai Chengfeng's heart.
