Chapter 1022: Chapter 1021: Sweeping Through All Enemies (Part 3)_1
Three swords, killing three Void Origin Realm Martial Emperors.
Shi Xiaole’s strength shocked everyone.
"How is this possible? It’s only been a little over two years, how could he be so strong..."
A white-haired elder cried out in shock, he was the Heart Transformation Martial Emperor of the Oblivion Assembly.
Several years ago, just after the disappearance of the Golden Abyss Alliance, he was one of the first to seek trouble with Shi Xiaole, along with the Iron Sword Emperor of Dragon View Ridge and the Dark Lance Emperor from the Blood Emperor’s Den, but they failed to break the Nine Heavens Array at that time.
It could be said that the Heart Transformation Martial Emperor was one of the ones least hoping for Shi Xiaole to rise, and now, seeing this scene, one can imagine the shock and panic in his heart.
Elsewhere, the Dark Lance Emperor’s face was also gloomy, his spear-wielding hand trembling unconsciously.
"Retreat!"
The Dragon Origin Emperor was terrified; he couldn’t even handle a Young Dragon, let alone a Kirin whose strength was even greater. Other than retreating, he had no other choice.
With a casual mention of the Spring Fury Sword, Shi Xiaole thrusted out with his sword.
Boom!
Suddenly, a comet-like light flashed from afar, and as it approached, it turned out to be an incredibly massive spear light. Sparks dotted the surface of the spearhead, burning the void, leaving countless holes and traces, blocking the sword light.
"Kirin, you can’t run wild here. Previously, I only suspected that you had ties with the Outer Heaven Demons, but now, seeing how ruthless and decisive you are, brutal and malevolent, I have reason to believe that you are using this as an opportunity to eliminate the experts of East Victory Continent, preparing the way for an invasion by the Outer Heaven Demons."
As the spear light dissipated, it revealed a robust and towering figure holding an eighteen-foot bronze spear. The head of the spear took the form of a serpentine head, coiling and opening its mouth, the red tongue being the spear tip, giving the illusion of piercing through everything.
It was none other than the Destruction Spear Emperor in charge here at Dragon View Ridge.
No one could describe the anger and shock of the Destruction Spear Emperor at this moment.
The entire Dragon View Ridge had only a few dozen Void Origin Realm Martial Emperors, and now the Kirin had arrived and directly killed three of them, leaving him at a loss for how to explain to his sect.
Death, this youngster must die!
The Destruction Spear Emperor shouted, "Shi, speak! How did you collude with the Outer Heaven Demons, or perhaps, you are an Outer Heaven Demon yourself?"
A smirk formed on Shi Xiaole’s lips, and though he was smiling, his eyes were ice cold to the bone as he retorted angrily, "You covet the resources of Nine Heavens Mountain and bully us for having no one to defend it, so you dare to attack by force. Why bother looking for a high-sounding reason? Wanting to play the harlot yet also longing to erect a virtuous stele, a bunch of shameless vermin!"
Perhaps influenced by Uncle Wang, Shi Xiaoshi also used the word ’vermin.’ With that speech, he insulted all the top-tier power Void Origin Realm Martial Emperors present.
Those listening felt their hearts clench.
It should be noted that, aside from Dragon View Ridge, there were also the Blood Emperor’s Den, Ancient Divine Sect, Demon Blade Association, and even the Jixia Martial Academy and the Martial Arts Alliance representing the imperial court, totaling six major powers.
Out of the six forces, the Void Origin Realm Martial Emperors sent by Dragon View Ridge were the least in number, and the most came from Jixia Martial Academy, a total of eight people. Including the Moyu Ancestor and others, there were forty-three Void Origin Realm Martial Emperors present in total!
Even if Shi Xiaole’s strength was great, if he angered them and they set aside their pride to launch a joint attack, Shi Xiaole wouldn’t have enough lives to pay the price.
Not to mention, in the eyes of many, the leaders of the six top forces with peak Earthly Realm strength, like the Destruction Spear Emperor, might not necessarily be inferior to Shi Xiaole.
"Presumptuous child, how dare you speak such slander!"
"If you’re so confident, why do you not dare to open the Nine Profound Array System and let us search within to prove your innocence? It’s clear you have a guilty conscience!"
Many martial artists of the Void Origin Realm were enraged, each exuding a tremendously intimidating aura.
The Destruction Spear Emperor lifted his spear, the tip of which casually swept over the people of Nine Heavens Mountain, as he sneered ominously, "Shi, we are here and will tolerate none of your delusions. Today, it is not just you, but everyone on Nine Heavens Mountain who will pay a heavy price for your actions. Remember, it’s all because of you!"
The Destruction Spear Emperor had to admit that Shi Xiaole had exceeded his expectations, but so what? The opponent could not turn the tables, and once he was taken down, breaking through Nine Heavens Mountain was just a matter of time.
He swore that he would torture to death, one by one, those Shi Xiaole cared about—right before his eyes. Otherwise, it would not be enough to wash away the disgrace Dragon View Ridge suffered today!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
As the Destruction Spear Emperor spoke, Blood Emperor from the Oblivion Assembly, Wangyou Old Ancestor, and Heavenly Axe Martial Emperor from Ancient Divine Sect suddenly charged out, each taking up a position at different points.
From above, the four formed a square, perfectly surrounding Shi Xiaole.
"Not good, they’re preparing to join forces!"
Inside Nine Heavens Mountain, Niu Dali stomped his foot in anger and roared, "A shameless bunch! How dare you harm Brother Shi, even if I become a ghost, I’ll drag you all to hell!"
With Zhu Ling’s covert manipulation, the Nine Profound Array System had revealed a sound portal, and Niu Dali had secretly messaged Shi Xiaole early on, suggesting that he and Zhang Xiangfeng should take the opportunity to rush into the formation. Unexpectedly, they missed the chance in just those few moments.
There was also Xin Zhuliu, the Three Eccentrics, Hua Yiyun, and others who were both anxious and worried. Shi Xiaole’s overpowering strength amazed them, and precisely because of this, they feared he might encounter an unexpected disaster, which would be too great a loss.
"Brother Shi, find a way to escape on your own. As long as you’re safe, they won’t dare to do anything to us!"
Hua Yiyun sent a telepathic message.
There were also Su Yanru, Xia Yunxi, and other women who, after their initial excitement, became extremely anxious. Unfortunately, everyone’s messages were blocked by the Array System. The Nine Profound Array System was severely damaged and couldn’t maintain the sound portal for long.
The disciples of Nine Heavens Mountain simply shouted out loud, all trying to persuade Shi Xiaole.
"How touching, they’re thinking of you as they face death. Do you have the heart to drag them down with you? Shi, if you have any conscience left, you should surrender and allow yourself to be captured."
The Destruction Spear Emperor’s face bore a mocking smile, and he gathered all his energy to its peak. Of course, he did not expect Shi Xiaole to truly surrender, but if he could disrupt the adversary’s composure, even by a slightest fraction, it would make his task much easier.
But the Destruction Spear Emperor was bound to be disappointed. From beginning to end, Shi Xiaole remained calm, a calmness that was frightening, "Arrogant fools, all four of you come at me. Perhaps your chances will be a little better."
What?
The crowd doubted their own ears.
The Blood Spider Martial Emperor’s face was ice-cold, Wangyou Old Ancestor forced a grin, and Heavenly Axe Martial Emperor weighed the axe in his hand, radiating murderous intent.
The Destruction Spear Emperor laughed in rage and bellowed, "I’ll see how arrogant you can be. Destruction Divine Spear, Kill!"
A spear light, more dazzling than the sun, suddenly lit up, streaking across the night sky, carrying the might of heaven and earth as it thrust directly at Shi Xiaole across from him.
"If today I were the weaker party, I would have no choice but to be slaughtered by you, even my family and friends would be implicated. Strength, strength, ha, well, I’ll show you what real strength is."
From the moment he arrived, offending the top forces was no longer part of Shi Xiaole’s considerations. Was it a joke? Would they spare him if he was merciful? Of course not!
Therefore, Shi Xiaole’s goal was singular—kill. By his own strength, he intended to kill all forty-three Void Origin Realm martial emperors present, and show the whole world, this was the fate of those who trespassed on Nine Heavens Mountain!
