Chapter 549: Chapter 547: Bastard, I’ll Fight You to the End
The two childlike figures gritted their teeth, no longer hesitating in the slightest.
Boom!
The field of Evil Qi crashed down like thunder.
It was as if a sinister, twisted sky fell straight upon them.
The crowd around was terrified, all retreating in shock.
Shi Hu’s mouth dropped open, his mind gone blank.
Could Xu Yang really withstand such a monstrous face formed of Evil Qi?
He almost exposed his own identity then and there.
But suddenly, the giant face halted abruptly.
Boom!
Spurt!
As if something had violently pierced through the giant face of Evil Qi, a deafening explosion sounded out.
And then came the shrill, agonized wails of countless Evil Souls.
Crack-boom!
The massive face was struck like by lightning; it utterly exploded apart.
Torn to pieces, Evil Souls shot everywhere, Evil Qi raged uncontrollably.
Xu Yang let out a muffled grunt, but his hands didn’t stop; Seal Skills weaved and roiled as one Evil Qi Elixir after another condensed, soaring into the sky, plunging into the shattered face, beginning a frenzied devouring.
The terrifying devouring force blanketed an area hundreds of yards wide, making escape impossible for the fractured giant face.
The blow that shattered the face was but a single stream of Evil Qi from within the world of the cauldron.
A mere strand, yet it pierced and tore everything apart.
The terror of such might was beyond description.
At this moment, Xu Yang was deaf to the outside world, pushing the Heaven-Devouring Spirit-Eating Skill to its absolute limit.
Even the Evil Souls began fleeing, but were locked down by the Old Granny’s restraints.
Devouring force augmented by spirit marks.
Nothing could get away!
For a moment, amidst the chaos, Xu Yang looked every bit the War God, rampantly devouring and plundering.
One after another, Evil Elixirs hung mid-air, radiating a suffocating might.
Everyone was utterly stunned.
Above, the two childlike figures trembled all over, as if they’d seen a ghost, their faces going paper white.
"How is that possible?"
"He’s just a High-tier True Monarch, and yet he could shatter Evil Qi of this magnitude..."
"Damn it, truly damn it! This is blatant provocation!"
"What do we do? Brother, what should we do? Are we just going to let him get away with this nonsense?"
Watching the rapidly vanishing Evil Qi and Evil Souls, the younger boy howled in grief and rage.
The other boy stifled his shock and gritted out, "We can’t keep gathering Evil Qi! Just now, we already lost a massive amount of Evil Qi and Evil Souls. Many will now break through this trial!"
If they continued to amass Evil Qi to deal with Xu Yang, it would mean picking up sesame seeds and dropping the watermelon!
"Then what do we do?"
"Damn it—he’s refining all the Evil Qi and Evil Souls into elixirs!"
"I’ll fight him myself!"
Seeing the Evil Qi and Evil Souls below almost fully devoured in a brief moment, one boy could endure no longer. With a furious roar, he leaped down.
"Chi Ling..."
The other boy shouted, but Chi Ling Tongzi was already falling.
From amidst the Evil Clouds burst a young figure, leaving everyone astonished.
"It’s a child! Chi Ling Tongzi!"
"The two children, one Chi Ling, one Xue Sheng, finally lost control?"
"Shit, these two kids are pushing people way too far!"
"But, what on earth did that guy just do? That was unreal."
...
"You brat, you’re going too far!"
Chi Ling glared daggers at Xu Yang, roaring with rage.
Xu Yang raised an eyebrow, "I’m going too far?"
"You had your chance to back down and refused; you won’t drink a toast and insist on drinking punishment. Daring to cause trouble in my Red Blood Dojo—you will pay the price!"
Xu Yang couldn’t help but sneer. "So this is the rule of your Red Blood Dojo? You do whatever you want, and now the children have to join the fray. Does Chi Xue, your Dojo Master, know about this?"
At the mention of Chi Xue, a deep reverence flashed in Chi Ling’s eyes, but he barked out harshly, "You think you’re fit to mention the Dojo Master?"
"I told you to kneel and you refused. Now, you’ll kneel whether you want to or not!"
As the words fell, Chi Ling Tongzi suddenly appeared above Xu Yang, raising a scarlet command banner high in his hand: "All Heaven and Earth Evil Qi, heed my command!"
Boom!
The Evil Clouds surged wildly, thundering as if some ancient behemoth was about to awaken within.
In an instant, millions of dark streams shot forth, flashing into Chi Ling’s command banner like lightning.
The banner thrummed, Evil Qi surging, its force like a furious ocean tide.
"Go!"
Chi Ling swept his sleeve, and the banner shot forth, expanding swiftly in mid-air, morphing into a giant flag that whipped up a mighty storm, unfurling like a colossal banner inscribed with nightmares.
On it appeared all manner of terrifying scenes—
There were ferocious fiends, tangled shadows, mountain-dwelling spirits, towering beasts, even raging flames, blades, and chains—countless Divine Weapons, all steeped in thick Evil Qi, woven together into a tapestry of hell itself.
The oppression it radiated was even more terrifying than the giant face before.
The flag billowed, engulfing all beneath it with a thunderous crash.
Xu Yang’s expression changed dramatically, his face darkening as his Divine Cauldron buzzed.
He did not hesitate—a touch of thought and he activated the world within his cauldron.
A wave of suffocating danger arose; Xu Yang held nothing back, directly summoning a mass of Evil Qi.
Spurt!
Boom!
When the flag was less than a dozen feet from him, it abruptly froze in the air—
A hole had appeared in the banner!
The hellish visions upon it seized up, then split and shattered, collapsing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Excellent treasure!"
Xu Yang’s eyes gleamed, and with a thought, scores of Evil Elixirs rushed in to plunder all they could.
"You..."
Chi Ling stared in stunned disbelief, his whole body shaking with shock.
The power in that banner was formed by all the Evil Qi gathered here—
And it had been smashed so easily?
"This time, I hit the jackpot."
Xu Yang’s gaze burned with greed.
Just these Evil Elixirs alone were a lethal arsenal.
The giant face before had already surprised him enough; he hadn’t expected the Evil Qi within the banner to be far more astonishing.
He vaguely sensed that as he devoured, the swirling Evil Qi around was diminishing in intensity.
Could it be...
Xu Yang pondered, thoughtful.
"Damn it, you’re dead!"
Chi Ling finally recovered his senses. Seeing how little of his banner was left, wrath and killing intent blazed from his eyes.
Roar!
He suddenly threw his head back and howled.
The surrounding mountains shook violently.
The crowd’s faces all changed, terror painted across each one.
"Quick, dodge!"
Out from the wilds, puppet after puppet burst forth, stampeding toward the arena.
Though not as overwhelming as the Evil Qi had been, every one of these puppets was a True Monarch Perfection.
These puppets’ force was all too well known to the crowd.
In the blink of an eye, more than a hundred converged!
The sight chilled everyone to their core.
This was utter madness.
"Wait— isn’t this our chance?"
"The power of Evil Qi is way down, and all the puppets are being drawn here. Doesn’t that mean there’s nothing left to stop us beyond this point?"
"Hell yeah—let’s go, quickly! Let’s break through while we can!"
"Heh, we owe this guy, honestly."
"Yeah. But who the hell is this lunatic? He’s terrifying! Still, he’s in trouble now."
"Over a hundred True Monarch Perfection puppets—who could possibly stand against them?"
...
Chi Ling, lost in fury, paid no heed to his surroundings.
Nor did he notice that the once-crowded onlookers had scattered, racing frantically deeper inside.
This was a heaven-sent chance!
Shi Hu hesitated for some time, but in the end, stayed behind.
Staring at the tide of more than a hundred puppets rapidly closing in on him, Xu Yang’s face turned more grave than ever before.
This threat was dozens of times greater than that of the giant face or the flag!
More than a hundred True Monarch Perfections!
How could anyone hope to stop that?
