Chapter 1471: Chapter 657: Hungry (2)
Zzzz!
One by one, Thunder Pillars shot up from the ground, rising from the edge of the city walls, trapping the entire Thunder City as if it were a celestial prison, forming a cage of captivity!
And the mastermind behind all this, the Bo Family Ancestor, merely raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
"Marvelous, marvelous... Originally, I would have needed to exert myself, but now..."
The original evil stone had long been dealt with by him. At this moment, he raised his hand and embedded the original evil stone into his forehead, like a... third eye.
Boom!!
A vast Qi, chaotic Qi, the most primitive Qi, surged madly into his body at this moment.
Then he placed his hands on his family’s Sky-reaching Pillar!
That Sky-reaching Pillar, which had been suppressed and stealthily adjusted over the years!
Rumble!!
In an instant, above the Bo Family, lightning flashed and thunder roared!
The power originally used to maintain the Sky Locking Thunder Array was instantly drawn more than halfway towards the Bo Family’s side!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Thunder streaked down from the Thunder Cloud, but instead of striking the Sky-reaching Pillar, it was directed at... the old monster of the Bo Family himself!
By connecting with the Sky-reaching Pillar, he shared this pain, slowly absorbing the Sky-reaching Pillar.
The Sky-reaching Pillar, which had stood within the Bo Family for countless years, was now... shrinking!
Shrinking! Shrinking! It was still shrinking!
He was actually going to absorb the Sky-reaching Pillar into his body, just like the original evil stone!
"Old Bo! What are you doing!?"
"Something’s wrong! The power of the Thunder Cloud has been absorbed by him alone!"
"It’s broken! Over here... aaaaah!!"
In the chorus of voices from those responsible for the pillars, someone suddenly let out a scream. From afar, a Sky-reaching Pillar emitted a chant of ’Amitabha,’ transforming into a gigantic Buddha Demon!
But none of this concerned the Patriarch of Bo Family because... the plan he had been scheming for was finally about to be realized!
"Come to me... absorb!!"
Whish!!
The Sky-reaching Pillar shrunk to just two meters in length, then sprang up and spun a few rounds before suddenly piercing into the Patriarch of Bo Family’s forehead from the top, penetrating him completely!
Brains splattered, and blood sprayed all over, yet the Family Head of Bo laughed wildly and triumphantly!
Because... it succeeded.
"Is this the feeling of... becoming the Sky-reaching Pillar?"
"This feeling of transcending to the heavens, descending to the earth, and assimilating with all things..."
"This unbeatable sense of embracing all things..."
"Ahhh... ahhhhh!"
"From this day on, I am the Mourning Pillar!!!"
"The Mourning Pillar is... me!!!"
Boom!!!
Thunder struck from the sky, directly hitting the blood-soaked bizarre body of the Family Head of Bo, illuminating it clearly.
The two-meter-long pillar body pierced through the Family Master Boji from top to bottom, and the original evil stone on his forehead vibrated violently, as if under immense pressure, ready to shatter at any moment.
And he himself was still in a frenzy, seemingly eroded by Qi, in a state of madness.
Suddenly, the Family Head of Bo glanced around, catching sight of the approaching Buddha Demon!
"A mere pillar demon dares to hinder me from reaching the heavens?"
The Family Head of Bo took a large step forward, his entire being erupting with dazzling Thunder in an instant, like walking Thunder Light, materializing a massive thunderous body, charging directly at the approaching Buddha Demon!
The Sky-reaching Pillar controlled by demons at the Wu Family, and the Patriarch of Bo, now one with the pillar, clashed in an instant.
Rumbling!!!
The immense sound of the thunder exploded completely, centered around the two of them!
This was a clash that Thunder had never witnessed before... a battle of pillar versus pillar!
And also... a battle of human versus demon!
But after just a few exchanges...
Boom!!
The Patriarch of Bo was knocked back, looking toward the Wu Family’s Sky-reaching Pillar in astonishment.
"How could it be... My seemingly perfect form, one with the pillar, is... inferior to the demon’s pillar??"
The Patriarch of Bo couldn’t understand, and what he couldn’t accept most was... he was leaking power.
The energy, previously charged to its zenith, was now, like a deflated balloon, with even the thunderous body shrinking significantly, losing power rapidly.
At this moment, a realization flashed through his mind.
He needed to replenish his strength; he needed... to devour other Sky-reaching Pillars! He was still... not perfect!!
"Amitabha, Master Bo has strayed onto a misguided path, why not abandon the Sky-reaching Pillar and embrace the mercy of the Buddha."
That Wu Family Sky-reaching Pillar was still spewing nonsense, hearing which made the Family Head of Bo’s veins bulge on his forehead, roaring angrily before charging again.
Boom boom boom!!!
The battle erupted again, with just the aftermath of the shockwaves shaking the ground of Thunder City, rumbling loudly.
...
"We’ve been tricked!"
The Family Head of the Zhang Family’s face was as gloomy as water.
He had already begun to feel powerless with his family’s Sky-reaching Pillar, and now a sudden portion of its power was drained away.
With this gradual shift, the Zhang Family’s Sky-reaching Pillar increasingly leaned toward the demonic forces.
Bang!!
Accompanied by the runaway demonic blood bursting open, transforming into a blood light and fleeing into the Sky-reaching Pillar, the control over the Sky-reaching Pillar had completely shifted to the demonic side.
"No!!!"
The Family Head of the Zhang Family roared in loss, being pulled towards the direction of the Sky-reaching Pillar.
"Hahaha! Old man, your time has come!!"
A wild laugh echoed from behind him, causing the veins on the Family Head of the Zhang Family’s forehead to bulge with anger.
Looking back, behind him was a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood!
On the ground in the courtyard lay the offspring of the Zhang Family, even several elders of the Zhang Family had fallen into pools of blood.
Then he looked again at the arrogant thief!
Covered in blood, barely able to open his eyelids, already at his wit’s end!
"Mere servants! How dare you reach such a point! If it weren’t for me... me!!"
Enraged, the ancestor of the Zhang Family suddenly shouted, completely abandoning the struggle with the Sky-reaching Pillar, and fiercely charged towards Zhang Baomian.
"Just what I needed! I’m only missing your head!!!"
Zhang Baomian shouted explosively, gathering all his strength, leaped forward, and pushed out with both palms.
Boom!!!
The immense disparity in power made Zhang Baomian’s expression change on the spot, coughing up blood with a wow, flying back and crashing to the ground, in utter disarray!
How could... he be this strong?!
Zhang Baomian couldn’t believe it.
But soon, he realized, after battling many times, he had become too weak!
In his current state, he was no longer qualified to battle the Family Head of the Zhang Family!
"Old man, just you wait!!!"
It shouldn’t be like this! Having inherited all of Hui Yao’s power... it shouldn’t be like this! I shouldn’t have only this bit of strength!!!
Zhang Baomian roared in his heart, struggling to get up and turned to flee.
He needed to find the Jiuyao Organization! He wanted the Jiuyao Organization to invest more effort into him, make him stronger! Stronger! Strong enough to crush Zhang Lao Monster! Crush anyone!!
However, how could the Family Head of the Zhang Family allow the culprit who nearly slaughtered the Zhang Family descendants, killing them indiscriminately while he was busy controlling the Sky-reaching Pillar, to leave just like that!
"Where are you running to!!!"
With a roaring shout, the Family Head of the Zhang Family was also bloodthirsty, charging forward in a frenzy.
But he forgot... what was behind him.
"Amitabha..."
The Sky-reaching Pillar of the Zhang Family had now transformed into a gigantic Buddha statue, with a large hand reaching out to grab him!
The Family Head of the Zhang Family’s face changed drastically.
"No! No! No!!!"
He shouted desperately, fleeing forward with all his might, yet the Buddha’s large hand still directly grabbed his fleeing legs.
Too slow, too slow by a second.
Or perhaps, anyone closely connected to the Sky-reaching Pillar, before completely severing ties, can never escape its influence!
"Wait! Wait!"
The Family Head of the Zhang Family roared out of control, even Zhang Baomian, who was ready to escape, suddenly stopped, watching with a sly and delighted distance at the Family Head of the Zhang Family’s downfall.
"Devour him! I don’t care what kind of thing you are, devour him for me!!"
Zhang Baomian urged, and the Buddha statue also opened its mouth.
But then...
Slap.
A hand pressed against the body of the Family Head of the Zhang Family.
"Is that you?!"
Zhang Baomian’s face changed.
"Hungry."
In an instant, the gigantic Buddha statue’s eyes widened.
That existence, like a human child, yet had... an almost Buddha Demon-like aura!
How... is this possible?!
The gigantic Buddha statue trembled, not daring to move.
Meanwhile, the human child was already opening his mouth, fiercely biting towards the arm of the Family Head of the Zhang Family.
