Chapter 2271: Chapter 2269: Slapping Oneself
"My physical body! You destroyed my physical body! Ah!"
Zhulin, in Soul Body form, roared furiously, panic reaching its peak.
"Didn’t you want to see my power? I’ve shown it to you now, how can you blame me? That’s your fault." Dantong said innocently.
"Wouldn’t you agree?" Dantong looked at the people of Dragon God Palace.
Everyone in Dragon God Palace nodded in unison.
"It’s just a physical body, can’t you make another one yourself?" Dantong shrugged and sneered.
"Oh, that’s right, you’re the living dead, able to resurrect because your evil thoughts were awakened. Your soul is an aggregation of these evil thoughts, and your body is formed by the Demon Clan’s Evil Qi. Once your body is destroyed, that’s the end of it." Dantong continued to sneer.
What Dantong said was absolutely correct.
Zhulin is the living dead.
Their resurrection is not a true resurrection, but through powerful ancient secret techniques, awakening the deceased’s evil thoughts, using the body formed by the Demon Clan’s Evil Qi. Once the body is destroyed, unless the Demon Clan’s Evil Qi can form a new body, they’ll remain in Soul Body form for the rest of their lives.
"How do you know the Demon Clan’s secret techniques?" A Transcendent Saint-level expert asked in shock.
Zhulin was thoroughly despairing; in Soul Body form, it couldn’t harness the power of a Transcendent Saint-level expert, and the soul formed by evil thoughts likely wouldn’t last long.
After all, it’s not a true Soul Body.
"You three, did you get permission from Dragon God Palace?" Ignoring the despairing Zhulin, Dantong glanced at the three Transcendent Saints.
With just one glance, the three trembled in fear and retreated in panic.
"I’m asking you, if you’re not deaf or mute, answer me." Dantong reprimanded coldly, his expression turning icy.
"No!" The three Transcendent Saints responded in unison.
"Since you didn’t have Dragon God Palace’s permission, why did you barge in?" Dantong asked coldly.
Wasn’t this question asked just now?
The three Transcendent Saints trembled, terrified by Zhulin’s fate.
"Well..." The three Transcendent Saints didn’t know how to respond.
"Do you know what crime it is to forcefully enter Dragon God Palace? It’s punishable by death." Dantong said coldly.
"We know we were wrong." The three Transcendent Saints hurriedly bowed and apologized.
"Since you were wrong, slap yourselves! Or you can try my power; choose wisely and answer me." Dantong said coldly, with an overwhelming force that couldn’t be resisted.
"Slap, slap, slap!"
The three Transcendent Saints didn’t dare refuse, immediately starting to slap themselves. The clear sound of the slaps was music to the ears of everyone in Dragon God Palace.
But how long they had to keep slapping was unknown.
"Go slap yourselves at the entrance of Dragon God Palace." Dantong said coldly, and the three Transcendent Saints immediately complied, not daring to resist.
For Transcendent Saint-level experts of the Demon Clan to kneel at the entrance of Dragon God Palace and slap themselves: how tremendous!
"Has Brother Feng not emerged yet?" Dantong asked Feng Zhengxiong and the others.
Feng Zhengxiong shook his head: "Chen Er has been in seclusion for over half a month, hasn’t come out yet."
"Until Brother Feng emerges, none of you are allowed to leave; the slapping can’t stop either. Anyone who dares to escape or stop, I’ll make them feel my power." Dantong swept his icy gaze over the Demon Clan experts.
After Dantong said this, they wouldn’t dare even with a thousand daring hearts, unless Holy Realm experts arrived.
...
Great Main God Temple.
The ones going to various forces, including Zhukong, had returned to the Great Main God Temple, except Zhulin’s group was missing.
"Why hasn’t Zhulin’s group returned?" Zhukong asked confusedly within the hall.
"Where did Senior Zhulin go?" Zhu Sha asked.
"Dragon God Palace." Zhukong smiled slightly, nonchalant.
"Dragon God Palace? Something’s wrong!" Zhu Sha’s face changed drastically.
Noticing Zhu Sha’s expression, Zhumie frowned slightly: "It looks like something happened. It’s highly likely Zhulin’s group acted too fiercely and drew out Dantong. If that’s true, the consequences are unimaginable."
"Dantong?" Zhukong frowned slightly, asking: "Is Dantong really that strong?"
Zhu Sha was anxious, quickly ordered: "Xu Mie, go to Dragon God Palace immediately and check."
"Yes, sir!" Xu Mie respectfully accepted the order and immediately disappeared.
When Xu Mie arrived at Dragon God Palace and saw the scene at the entrance, he was utterly dumbfounded.
Xu Mie couldn’t believe the scene in front of his eyes.
The scene was too stimulating! Too eye-irritating!
"What... What is going on here?" Xu Mie was stunned like a wooden chicken, his eyes nearly falling out.
Xu Mie’s first thought was Dantong; only Dantong could force them into such an eye-irritating scene.
Xu Mie didn’t dare to stay, immediately flashed back to the Great Main God Temple.
"Reporting to the master, Senior Zhulin and the others..." Xu Mie immediately described the scene he saw, his back drenched in cold sweat.
Zhukong and the others’ anger exploded, their terrifying killing intent and pressure bursting forth.
"How dare they insult our Demon Clan!" Zhukong’s face twisted, roaring like a furious beast.
"Dantong must die!"
"That’s right! Dantong must die!"
"Zhu Sha, immediately order to destroy Dragon God Palace!"
Ruthless and terrifying killing intent spread throughout the hall, chilling to the soul, suffocating.
Zhu Sha’s face turned extremely dark, then said: "Seniors, calm down. Dantong’s power is beyond our ability to resist, even if our Demon Clan experts mobilize fully, we can’t deal with Dantong. We must wait for a Holy Realm expert to arrive; otherwise, we’d be going to our deaths."
Zhu Sha was truly afraid of Dantong, and without absolute certainty, he would never act rashly.
Zhumie said gravely: "Zhulin and the four Transcendent Saints are strong, yet they are forced to kneel and slap themselves at Dragon God Palace, proving Dantong’s power."
"Are we just going to watch Zhulin’s group be humiliated?" Zhukong’s face grew darker, silently vowing to ensure Dantong pays a painful price.
"I didn’t expect Senior Zhulin’s group to go to Dragon God Palace." Zhu Sha shook his head helplessly, having already warned them about Dantong’s immense strength.
Zhulin’s group chose not to listen, provoking Dantong; their humiliation was their own fault.
Of course, Zhu Sha didn’t want to see the Demon Clan seniors humiliated, but he had no choice; if they couldn’t defeat Dantong, they’d have to endure.
"Zhu Sha, when will the Holy Realm experts arrive?" Zhumie asked.
"My master will arrange it; I don’t know when," Zhu Sha shook his head, genuinely unsure when the Holy Realm experts would arrive.
"What about Zhulin’s group?" Zhumie asked again.
"Go to Dragon God Palace and demand them back." Zhu Sha didn’t hesitate at all.
