Chapter 394: The King of the Netherworld Unleashes Slaughter, Purging the Book of Life and Death (Part 1)
Boom!!!
A terrifying blast echoed, scorching hot and dazzlingly golden, as a colossal furnace spanned the heavens and earth, radiating an intense glow.
In that instant, the unleashed power seemed to freeze time itself.
The shockwaves of terror rippled endlessly, causing the waters of the Grand Canal to surge and churn, erupting into towering waves.
On the Jade Square, debris, dust, and smoke rose like curtains, with cracks spreading in layers.
Then, the flesh and blood shattered into pieces, scattering hot vital energy across the sky, instantly heating up the atmosphere.
"Ahhhhhh!!!"
A horrifying wail filled with fury, resentment, and roars emanated from Qing Long, the top-tier apex expert, whose physical body had been blasted apart. His Martial Dao will, a heavenly man sensation, seemed to be burning after his body was shattered.
It was as if his connection with the heavens and earth had been severed.
Puff, puff—
Fragments of flesh and blood fell like boulders, creating craters in the ground with their impact. Qing Long's formidable body was blown to pieces, resembling a meteorite that had been punched and shattered upon impact.
Everyone stood frozen in shock, their mouths agape.
Amidst the dust and smoke, on the city walls and below, all around the Jade Square, countless onlookers and powerful cultivators witnessed the scene.
One...
A top-tier apex expert!
Fallen!
So fast!
From the moment the King of the Netherworld leaped down from the Netherworld Capital, shattering the air and charging forward, to the moment Qing Long, the top-tier apex expert, was struck down, it all happened in just two moves!
Just...
Two moves!
It was almost unbelievable, even bordering on the absurd. After all, Qing Long was no weakling; he was the leader of the Divine Capital's Four Mystic Guards and the sixth-ranked expert at the Heavenly Gate Pass. Raised and groomed by the Grand Jing Dynasty since childhood, he had endured countless trials and outshone numerous child prodigies to earn the Emperor's favor and receive the Qing Long Temple's inheritance, held by the dynasty.
Undergoing a metamorphosis, he rose to command the Qing Long Mystic Guards, leading thirty thousand of them.
Yet...
Such a formidable figure, who had once intimidated the Divine Capital, was now blasted apart by two moves from a young man, right before the eyes of countless powerful cultivators.
One punch shattered the sky, and the next took his life!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
The roaring and bellowing of the Lion Elephant fusion filled the air, and the golden furnace seemed to release billowing smoke, illuminating the entire sky.
The howling winds and raging currents continued to wreak havoc, and the shockwaves from the explosion formed ripples that kept expanding, ravaging the ruins of the Jade Square and tearing apart the rising dust and debris.
In the distance, Bai Hu and Zhu Que, having heard Qing Long's plea for help, broke away from their confrontation with Lu Tai Bai and rushed towards Qing Long's location.
However, as they moved, their bodies froze mid-air.
Zhu Que, clad in crimson armor, and Bai Hu, adorned in white jade armor, seemed frozen in time, suspended in mid-air.
Their eyes, visible through their masks, widened in horror and despair as they stared at Qing Long, whose flesh had been blasted apart and whose heavenly man sensation had been shattered.
They stood in shock, witnessing the punch that had obliterated Qing Long, and the terrifying figure atop the furnace, resembling a demon god.
Suddenly, the scene fell silent.
Almost everyone's actions came to a halt.
The battle between Ji Mo Ling and Shi Jian, the True Martial Sect's leader, paused. The clash between Xuan Jiu Zhuan and Gu Chang Qing, Zhao Chun Qiu, and other sect leaders ceased. Even the confrontation between Lu Tai Bai and the shadow of Tian Can Di Que came to a standstill.
"He's dead..."
Someone's exclamation seemed to ignite the atmosphere, and the crowd erupted in response.
The first top-tier apex expert to perish at the Peach Blossom Festival!
As expected, the Netherworld King's involvement led to death. The Netherworld's notorious reputation was well-deserved, as most news associated with it involved killing.
Either killing or on the path to kill.
This was the Netherworld, and its King!
All eyes turned to the figure wearing the black and white split mask, their hair standing on end in awe and fear.
The Netherworld King stretched out his fingers, and Qing Long's shattered remains, which had been scattered, were drawn back together and collected by his outstretched hand.
He claimed Qing Long's body and the Heaven Earth Jade as his spoils of war without hesitation.
Bai Hu and Zhu Que's eyes turned crimson with rage, and they roared in fury. Their vital energy surged, creating a spectacle of Vital Energy Bai Hu and Vital Energy Zhu Que across the sky.
The Eight Mystic Gates within their spines began to tremble, as if about to explode. As top-tier apex experts, they had all practiced the Eight Mystic Gates techniques, which enhanced their vital energy and enabled such outbursts.
You might not use it, but you must possess it—that was the essence of these techniques.
Qing Long, too, had cultivated the Eight Mystic Gates, but...
He had no chance to use it, struck down by the Netherworld King in just two moves.
Boom, boom, boom!!!
Bai Hu and Zhu Que roared in anger, charging towards Li Che with all their might. The Divine Capital's Four Mystic Guards, raised together since childhood, were renowned for their top-tier Four Symbols Combined Strike technique.
To execute such a strike required the kind of perfect harmony that Tian Can Di Que and his shadow had demonstrated.
However, with Qing Long's death, the Four Symbols Combined Strike was no longer possible. The technique's power was lost, but this wasn't the primary source of Bai Hu and Zhu Que's fury.
Their anger stemmed from the profound sorrow they felt over Qing Long's death.
The terrifying Vital Energy Zhu Que and Vital Energy Bai Hu almost instantly reached the Netherworld King, their Eight Mystic Gates on the verge of explosion.
They seemed determined to unleash their full power, even at the risk of self-destruction.
Perhaps it was because the Divine Capital's Four Mystic Guards were all dead men, raised from childhood to serve the Emperor, selling their lives to him.
The death of the Azure Dragon did not deter the two, but instead, it fully ignited the murderous intent of the White Tiger and Vermilion Bird!
Li Che, wearing the Netherworld King's mask, felt the terrifying and intense Vital Energy Xuanwu. The Vermilion Bird and White Tiger directly detonated three Mysterious Gate Divine Seeds, causing their armor to resonate with a loud clanging.
Even as top-tier experts in Shenwu, their bodies were formidable, and detonating three Mysterious Gate Divine Seeds was the limit.
Boom!
The invisible force that erupted from both sides collided, creating a sound like the White Tiger's roar and the Vermilion Bird's screech.
The terrifying thunderous noise continued to reverberate.
Facing the Vermilion Bird and White Tiger's onslaught after detonating three Mysterious Gate Divine Seeds, the Netherworld King's ink-colored robe fluttered in the wind, and behind him, the Cauldron roared. Within the Cauldron, it was as if seven blazing suns were rising.
The Netherworld King did not retreat. He tapped his toes, causing the ground to instantly sink like soft mud, and then he swept his arms forward, pushing horizontally.
Countless Dragon-Elephant shadows, ever-changing, spanned the heavens and earth.
Boom!
The earth shook and the sky trembled.
With a single sweeping punch, it was as if the supreme pill furnace in the immortal's abode in the heavens was tilting, and the surging Vital Energy Xuanwu burst forth like flames, awakening the divine dragon and demon.
A massive fist-shaped shadow formed and pushed horizontally, tearing through the countless rising curtains of smoke and dust with a single punch.
Divine Ability: Dragon-Elephant Heaven-Ruling!
In an instant, the force surged and grew, as mighty as a bursting river, threatening to overwhelm and sweep away everything in its path.
The Vermilion Bird and White Tiger screeched and clashed, meeting the overwhelming force of the punch.
In an instant, a terrifying sound erupted, like the sky shattering from the impact.
On the high platform.
The Emperor abruptly stood up, his divine nature and Vital Energy Xuanwu intertwining and blurring his facial features. His eyes revealed a mix of sorrow and astonishment.
The sorrow was, of course, due to the death of the Azure Dragon.
The astonishment, however, was because the Netherworld King could actually fight against the Vermilion Bird and White Tiger in a horizontal assault.
The Empress's dignified face also showed a look of surprise.
"The Netherworld King... seems to be in the Netherworld, surrounded by darkness, yet his power is so pure and masculine, incredibly domineering. But within his ferocity, there's also a hint of softness, a balance of yin and yang. With such terrifying pure martial Vital Energy Xuanwu... surpassing the Four Openings Martial Saint, he's probably just a step away from the Half-step Martial God realm!"
"Such power... I've never heard of it before."
The Empress muttered in a low voice.
Under the gaze of the crowd.
Where the Vermilion Bird and White Tiger clashed, a terrifying Vital Energy Xuanwu erupted, causing a violent wave of smoke and dust to rise from the ground and surge upwards, defying the heavens.
Bang!
Then, a sound louder than spring thunder in the sky exploded.
The two figures, like falling stars trailing fiery tails, shot out, tearing and melting the ground, creating two enormous ravines.
The Vermilion Bird and White Tiger, both top-tier experts, were blasted back.
Their masks had already shattered, revealing their distorted and ruined faces, hideous and terrifying, like demons from the Netherworld.
But they stared at the Netherworld King in shock.
"Impossible!"
The Vermilion Bird's voice was filled with astonishment and rage, sounding somewhat hoarse, like that of a woman. The Vermilion Bird was female, but to everyone watching, her destroyed appearance made her gender insignificant.
After detonating three Mysterious Gate Divine Seeds, the power they unleashed was so intense that it hit the Netherworld King without causing any harm.
How could he be so strong?
The Netherworld King... could it be that he's already reached the Half-step Martial God realm?
Adding to the death of the Azure Dragon, for a moment, the Vermilion Bird and White Tiger felt an overwhelming sense of despair.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
The smoke and dust raged and rolled in.
Li Che, wearing the Netherworld King's mask, stood in place, his body surrounded by golden Vital Energy Xuanwu like mist, and behind him, the Cauldron was scorching hot, containing terrifying power.
It must be said that the White Tiger and Vermilion Bird were decisive. As top-tier experts ranked eighth and twelfth at the Heavenly Gate Pass, the power they unleashed after detonating the Mysterious Gate Divine Seeds surged wildly.
It even posed some threat to Li Che.
Unfortunately...
Li Che's Painting Immortal Dao Fruit, after reaching level 5, granted him the Divine Ability Ink City Lord Slaughter, allowing him to obtain a Dominant Clone.
Any damage he received would be transferred to the Dominant Clone and then to Ink City.
As long as Ink City remained intact, Li Che was invincible.
Therefore, even when facing the combined attacks of the Vermilion Bird and White Tiger, Li Che appeared unscathed, relaxed, and carefree, like an unyielding mountain.
Domineering, powerful...
Invincible!
This was the Netherworld King!
Perhaps only a powerful existence like Lu Tai Bai, who captures Dao Essence, refines Dao Positions, and wields the Dao Essence Tribulation Sword, approaching the Half-step Divine Tribulation realm, could rival him.
The Vermilion Bird and Black Tortoise were horrified.
Then, they felt an extremely powerful suffocating force, as the Netherworld King moved again, stepping down as if shrinking the ground, or using the heavens and earth as a chessboard, placing a chess piece on it.
Wherever the chess piece was placed, the Netherworld King could appear at will.
Buzz—
The Netherworld King appeared behind the Vermilion Bird, as if teleporting, his golden hair flying in the wind.
The Vermilion Bird, having detonated three Mysterious Gate Divine Seeds, roared and screeched, her Vital Energy Xuanwu surging like a reborn Vermilion Bird, spreading her arms wide, and the heat from her Vital Energy Xuanwu swirling fiercely.
However...
The Netherworld King's eyes were ice-cold, and with a thought, he used the same method as he did against the Azure Dragon.
In the Heaven-Earth Chessboard, another chessboard seemed to envelop it, measuring ten feet, neither too big nor too small.
Li Che wore a black and white half-split Yama mask, with his five fingers spread wide, and slowly pressed down, as if an invisible field was forming with his palm's descent, and he fiercely clapped down!
Buzzing—
It was as if the void itself was emitting a pitiful wail under the unbearable pressure, and the solidified heavenly might, like the scent of agarwood, slowly descended, and then suddenly expanded towards the four directions...
Boom—!!!
【Heaven Overcoming Half-Child: Heaven Overcoming Domain (Twenty Feet)】
Under the mask, Li Che's eyes slightly brightened.
As he consumed a Chi Long Blood Peach in the Peach Forest to replenish his energy and blood, his Qi Sea Golden Pool expanded to several thousand feet, aiming to reach ten thousand feet!
Li Che's martial cultivation had slightly improved, and his Qi Sea Golden Pool expanded to several thousand feet, with the goal of reaching ten thousand feet!
Now, with this transformation, his strength increased, and under the pressure, the Heaven Overcoming Domain continued to expand!
From ten feet, it expanded to twenty feet!
Within a twenty-foot range!
All gods kneel before me!
Boom!!!
Zhu Que's twisted and blurred disfigured face showed a horrified expression in her eyes.
When she was enveloped by the Heaven Overcoming Domain, she finally understood why Qing Long was so easily defeated!
"Divine Domain?!"
"No! Small Dongtian!"
The terrifying heavenly might fell like a heavy hammer, smashing onto Zhu Que's body, causing the three Divine Seeds of her spirit to slightly flicker like dying embers.
Her cultivation was rapidly declining, although the explosion of the three Mysterious Gate Divine Seeds still maintained...
However, as her cultivation weakened, the power obtained from the explosion of the three Mysterious Gate Divine Seeds also declined...
What kind of power was this?!
Zhu Que was filled with dread!
The overwhelming heavenly might made her heart tremble with endless fear.
The power that stripped her cultivation left her with only despair at this moment.
"Ahhhh!"
Zhu Que naturally didn't want to sit and wait for death!
"Bai Hu! Don't let him get close, if he gets close to you, he'll take away your cultivation, take away your power!"
Zhu Que screamed.
At the same time, bearing the terrifying heavenly might of the Heaven Overcoming Domain, Zhu Que bit her lip, feeling intense pain, which allowed her to slightly recover her human potential under the heavenly might.
She wanted to break free from this devil-like figure, the Netherworld King, who was closely sticking to her back!
"Your name will be recorded in the Book of Life and Death, one by one, you will all die."
A faint voice came from the Netherworld King's mouth.
Those recorded in the Book of Life and Death.
The Netherworld King will come to take your lives early in the morning!
Li Che's heart stirred, and within his left arm, a Four Virtues Upper Tier Divine Armament suddenly burst forth with a clangorous sound.
Then, hidden within his arm bone, a Four Virtues Upper Tier Divine Armament, a tripoint bisected blade, instantly emitted a dazzling blade hum.
Terrifying blade energy raged and intertwined, like a dragon whirlpool wrapping around the Netherworld King's arm. With a clench of his five fingers, a tripoint bisected blade was grasped like a spear.
The Thousand Mountain Solo Blade!
This was Li Che's Mysterious Gate Divine Seed blade technique, already reaching the pinnacle!
With a single-handed grip on the blade, a flick of the wrist, the bursting blade light exploded with dazzling brilliance, accompanied by a crisp clang, aiming at Zhu Que who was trying to break free from the Heaven Overcoming Domain.
