Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 963: Bloodshed on Barren Island
The majestic sword lotus bloomed hundreds of meters in the sky, creating a scene like a red sun shining down from the horizon while pouring out its brilliant rays, while the already dim Tenebrous Domain was diluted again by the sword light.
Looking graceful and graceful in her white clothes, Tang Guan waved her hand, and her blade looked like a rainbow bridge that fell from the sky as it fell to stab at the giant skeletal monster.
This move was Tang Guang's strongest killing technique. At the moment when the sword was at odds with the bone blade, a faint figure appeared to climb the sword and quietly appeared near the skeletal monster. Spatial turbulence then occurred, and the figure suddenly appeared behind Maz Soloch.
“CARE-CARE!!”
Astraeus Soloch who was watching in the distance suddenly his expression changed drastically, and he cried out in shock.
However, that shadowy figure was too fast, like an immortal sword, and quietly slashed Maz Soloch's neck firmly, decapitating his head. The powerful slash even made the head that flew away explode instantly.
THE EXPLOSION…
The skeletal monster also exploded and shattered violently. Although it had wreaked havoc with a devastating blow to fend off the sword beam fired by the sword lotus, it was only able to do so for a moment. Now, the sword rays continued to charge forward towards Zalegly Soloch.
“Domain Tenebrous!”
Zalegly Soloch angrily blew a mouthful after mouthful of grayish-black blood and narrowly avoided important parts of his body being hit. However, he quickly escaped nearly 100 meters after his left arm was cut off by the sword beam.
With anger and fury visible on his face, Astraeus quickly ran to Zalegly and blocked the rest of the sword beams for him. He furiously growled, “Basic jerk! You shamelessly carried out a sneak attack ?! All my clansmen, kill them all! I will appreciate whoever kills the most and who gets the greatest reward with the Darkness Holy Fruit once we return home! ”
The Dark Fruit ?!
Hysteria could be seen in the eyes of dozens of experts of the Heavenly Witch Clan. The Darkness Holy Fruit was the sacred object of their clan, as it was the fruit of their sacred tree. The Sacred Tree of Darkness only blooms once every 100 years and only produces 10 Holy Dark Fruits each time.
It could be said that the Darkness Holy Fruit was one of the top three treasures in the Heavenly Witch Clan. Consuming just one fruit can make one's strength increase rapidly in a short time, even if that person is a newborn child. But for a powerhouse, taking this fruit would increase their cultivation for hundreds of years.
“KILL!!!”
“KILL THEM ALL!!!”
A cluster of black fog suddenly exploded, and a shadowy figure flew towards the 9th island. The scene looked like they were evil beings coming out of hell, bringing along those who were boiling killing auras along with the black fog.
Tang Xiu's eyes were still being trained on Astraeus Soloch. Upon seeing that this man had not rushed over yet, he immediately raised his hand and waved his hand forward while shouting, “HELP THEM! None of you can retreat unless you fight to the death in this battle. The more you kill, the better your reward! ”
At the sea in the distance, Daoist Zixuan and his ten disciples had just caught up and saw that the battle between the two sides had just begun. Although Daoist Zixuan had experienced several battles, seeing over a hundred powerhouses on the battlefield at the same time still gave him a small shock.
His gaze, however, was locked onto the immortal sword in the hands of the experts of the Eternal Feast Hall. He spent some time observing the sword and making sure that it was an immortal sword, and that the number of people who possessed it was definitely over 20.
“Mastered.”
Jin Chanzi's skin looked somewhat pale. He and his martial brothers had never seen such a battle scene and looked nervous.
A deep thought filled Daoist Zixuan's eyes, and she remained silent for more than ten seconds before finally deciding. After strengthening his heart, he then said in a deep voice, “Daois Tang and his men from the Island of the Nine Dragons, including Mo Awu, have saved us. Now that they are fighting against that Heavenly Witch clan, we cannot be silent and do nothing. All of you, prepare to join the battle. Even if we have to die today, we have to help Daoist Tang and his men. ”
“Understanding!”
Regardless of them feeling nervous and agitated, the group of ten Jin Chanzi still had the courage to directly release their swords and they doused towards the battlefield together with Daoist Zixuan. They were all at the Foundation Establishment Stage and each of them was comparable to the experts of the Eternal Feast Hall; however, their lack of experience in battle was instantly revealed after joining the battle and fighting against the experts from the Heavenly Witch clan.
Meanwhile, neither Tang Xiu nor Astraeus Soloch moved and only coldly observed the battle from the sidelines.
Light flickered from the cold blade, as well as the crackling sound of the sword, getting louder in the rain of blood quickly makes the 9th island a major battle stage with the fighters engaging in deadly battles everywhere. The barren island had become a field of bloodshed, dyeing the sky with blood and energy.
However, as time went on, Astraeus Soloch's brows furrowed and knitted deeper. He was well aware that his side would suffer more casualties and injuries if the fighting continued for longer. Moreover, he could see that his side was gradually experiencing complications.
“How is this possible? The strength of this youngster was not that strong; however, how could their combat experience be so rich? The most frightening aspect was that the longer they fought, the stronger the strength they could unleash. They can even easily correct the awkward movements they did before. ”
Fists clenched tightly, Astraeus' eyes suddenly turned to Tang Xiu. The words this young man had said to him before the battle echoed in his mind: Training his men.
“She ... she used my family member ... to drill her army ?! This crazy bastard! Didn't he know that it was very difficult to train an expert? Even if the situation was in their favor, they would also suffer a great deal of casualties, regardless of them being able to kill the experts from my clan in the battle so far! Could it be that he did not care about the many experts, like they were just worthless things in his eyes? ”
Only at this moment did Astraeus Soloch have the faint regret that he closed all space for negotiations and tore off all politeness with these people before his eyes. The young man might not care about his own men, but he could not do the same. One should know that training an expert is extremely difficult, even for his Heavenly Witch Clan. However, over a dozen experts from his clan had been killed, while dozens more were injured in over ten minutes.
Astraeus Soloch looked at Tang Xiu and said, “Young people, my Heavenly Witch Clan has several thousand clans, and over a hundred of them are great magicians. I only brought less than a tenth of my clan experts here. You can let your troops continue the battle if you are not afraid of my clan's retaliation. ”
“Heh? Are you threatening me? “Tang Xiu Project. “I may fear many things, but threats are not one of them. But I'll be honest with you. I only have a few experts under me, maybe not even a tenth of what your clan has. But what about that? Only cultivators who had gone through slaughter baptism could be considered a true great power. Those who died in battle meant that they were not good enough, while those who survived would become stronger and stronger in the future. ”
“You're crazy!” Astraeus Soloch was furious.
“I'm a madman? You're right, old bangka. I'm really a crazy person, ”joke Tang Xiu again. “That's because I've experienced battles and murders — is too much to count. So much so that stepping on the life and death line in battle was meaningless to me. This era is too peaceful. I want to give some of my opponents to gain experience, because such opportunities are hard to come by. Your Heavenly Witch Clan is gracefully handing yourself over to my door, so how can I waste this opportunity? ”
Gripping his fists tightly, Astraeus Soloch finally could not calm himself down and unleashed the Tenebrous Domain killing technique as he raised the staff in his hands high up and rushed towards the fighting crowd.
Tang Xiu let out a wild laugh and cut his hand forward. The divine sword in his hand turned into a huge burst of a hundred meters deep that carved a crack in the middle of the black fog. With an extremely powerful sword energy bursting forward, he instantly appeared right in front of Astraeus Soloch.
“Petir..”
“Api..”
“Angin..”
“Rain..”.
Right after he threw the technique, lightning fell down from the sky; flames appeared out of nowhere from the horizon, forming a sea of flames in the blink of an eye; tornadoes came and raged violently, and finally, a sea of flames, the acid rain from the floating dark clouds finally followed him.
“What is this?!”
The scene made Astraeus Soloch's face greatly changed. He felt like he was being transported to a magical world, yet the magic power within him posed a great threat to him.
‘Is this some kind of magic spell?’
Astraeus Soloch bit the tip of his tongue and swung his staff faster, forming a layer of black fog to protect himself, while also directly releasing the Grim Reaper Crescent to cut forward towards Tang Xiu.
Tang Xiu responded with laughter and controlled the divine sword to clash head-on without hesitation.
CRACK IT! THE EXPLOSION!!!
A sound like a broken egg shell rang out, followed by the eruption of a gigantic energy shockwave that made the many experts fighting around it fly upside down. The shockwave even created a huge hole 100 meters wide and seven meters deeper.
Astraeus Soloch spewed out a mouthful of blood, and his face paled like paper. His body trembled as he stared at the shattered Grim Reaper scythe. The pain of the loss made her almost cry.
This magical weapon was obtained by his father after risking his life in the past, while he spent over 300 years repairing it after his father handed it to him. With the Grim Reaper Scythe in his hand, his strength had greatly increased, which was the reason why he held it so dearly.
Yet now, it had actually been shattered by the enemy's long sword?
How is this possible?!!
Astraeus Soloch's eyes were filled with hatred as he looked at Tang Xiu. He furiously roared, “All Heavenly Witch clans! The enemy has made a trap for us, and we have suffered too many losses here! Watch my order and escape from this place at once! ”
At that moment, all the experts of the Heavenly Witch clan lost their fighting spirit. Many of them witnessed the clash between Astraeus and Tang Xiu a moment ago. Never in their wildest dreams would their revered Grand Elder, a figure they admired, unexpectedly lose to a young man. Even the Grim Reaper Scythe, his iconic magic weapon, was also destroyed.
“RUN!”
Despite the deep humiliation and disgrace they felt inside, they knew that life was more important than fighting here. Choosing to prolong the battle would very likely cost them their lives, while their Grand Elder no longer had the spirit to continue fighting.
Immediately after, dozens of clans from the Heavenly Witch clan quickly fled while injured. However, the experts from the Everlasting Feast Hall were extremely hot and continued to disturb them, causing them to be unable to escape to safety within a short period of time.
A smile was displayed on Tang Xiu's face as he was quite pleased with the toughness and ferocity displayed by his men. Nearly 20 people from the Heavenly Witch Clan died, compared to the four men from the Eternal Feast Hall, after ten minutes of battle.
“Everything, pay attention to my order! CHASE AND KILL THEM! ”
Tang Xiu himself took the lead, and his body shot forward as fast as a meteor, chasing after the experts of the Heaven Mage Clan. The divine sword he unleashed was as if an omen of death, as each of his attacks would severely persecute some Heavenly Witch experts. Even if those who were shot were not killed immediately, it greatly hindered their movements and delayed their escape.
