'It's time to let them enjoy a feast of blood. Mind-Poisoning Domain – Frenzy Mode.'
Ken activated his domain technique, spreading his Bloodlust Qi in a radius of half a kilometer away from himself. By standing in the center of the 200-meter-radius arena, his domain spread 300 meters in all directions, affecting all the disciples watching in that range.
Because of the large number of targets, the technique's power was reduced by 80%, but this much was enough to affect those at the fourth stage.
The Frenzy Mode was quite similar to the Paralyzing Mode, derived from the same technique. In the Small Success mastery realm, Ken's Bloodlust Qi caused the targets to hallucinate.
Everyone started seeing the people in front of them as people they hated. Some saw people they had killed before, while others saw enemies that they'd love for a chance to kill.
"You enslaved us and forced our friends to go to their deaths. Let's rise against them!"
One disciple with a weaker mind and soul backstabbed a man that stood in front of him. He was wearing black robes but wasn't a true disciple of the Four Seasons Sect.
In his mind, he saw the disciple in front of him as the elder who pushed his friends to their deaths by forcing them to fight the monster on the mountain's peak.
"You dare kill him, pay with your life!"
A disciple from the Four Seasons Sect turned around and attacked him, and the 2 started to fight.
Similar events happened in a radius of 500 meters from Ken; disciples from the Four Seasons Sect were attacked by disciples from The Divine Sword Sect as well as by those from other sects.
There was also friendly fire on all sides, but mostly they focused on their enemies. It'd take a while for Ken's bloodlust to affect them enough to even attack one another.
----------
Ken's face showed a devilish smile under his mask, but nobody could see it.
"Good job, kiddo. You have 5 minutes before the elders from the Four Seasons Sect intervene and kill you."
Although there were 15 minutes until the agreement's time comes, the elders might come earlier.
Ken heard Elmer's voice in his ear, and he started to work. His figure blurred as he used One Step all over the mountain, slashing people left and right with his sword. He didn't bother with those who weren't fighting; it was faster to dash between the fighting ones and sneak attack them.
Every time he used One Step, he killed over 10 disciples in his dash by swinging his sword in all directions. Using the sword's elasticity, he could make the sword bounce and swirl at a high speed even without a technique.
'400 people more.'
"Evil cultivator! Don't think you can run away!"
Trenton's voice echoed in the mountains as he sneered and vanished from his place, attempting to kill Ken in a single strike. Ken saw the elder in front of him. Trenton had green eyes and long smooth brown hair tied behind him. His rectangle-shaped face showed an angry smile.
"Not today, friend."
Trenton's hand sunk into a ball of darkness and stopped a few centimeters from Ken. Hearing Elmer's smile, Ken laughed out loud and continued his massacre, angering the elder from the Four Seasons Sect further.
"Who is this? Show yourself!"
But Elmer didn't bother with the demands of a weaker cultivator. Trenton was only at the seventh stage while Elmer was at the eighth stage.
When Trenton realized he couldn't free his arm unless he amputates himself, he turned his head to the elder in charge from the Divine Sword Sect.
"Benjamin, help me kill the kid! Your sect's disciples are getting killed too!"
"I prefer to keep watching."
Benjamin smiled in schadenfreude and watched the scene plays out underneath him from the sky, remaining uninvolved. Although Trenton's words were true, the other sect took much more damage, so he didn't mind just watching.
"Crazy bastard! The war rules are being broken because of his weird technique! All fifth and sixth stage disciples, forget the war rules and put an end to this kid's life!"
The number of casualties climbed every moment. There were thousands of disciples around the mountain, and everyone started fighting. Even the weaker ones of the low Nascent Soul disciples couldn't resist the urge to attack.
'It's not enough. Hate each other more. Kill each other more. Can't you see it? they wish to kill you!'
Ken thought to himself as he manipulated his Frenzy Domain, understanding it better. He felt as if something clicked in his mind and his domain was taken to the next level. Big Success mastery realm!
The first quantitative change was that from a 20% effect, it rose to 30%, making it 1.5 times stronger. Furthermore, it underwent a qualitative change. Other than seeing the people around them as people they hate, the hallucination made them see those people move and kill their friends and loved ones.
"AHHH!"
Many screams resounded in the mountains as a bloodbath took place. With the new upgrade of the technique, even intermediate Nascent Soul stage cultivators couldn't resist the urge to kill those around them.
The rules of war were forgotten long ago, and fifth-stage cultivators slaughtered the fourth-stage ones until they found an equal enemy that kept them busy. Those in the higher stages tried to save their junior brothers and sisters, which prompt their equals from the other side to intervene and repel them.
'200 enemies more, 3 minutes left.'
From time to time, stronger cultivators tried to intercept him on his murderous dashes, but every time they tried, a black fog would block their attacks and stop them in their tracks.
Ken thought it was all Elmer's doing, prompting him to wonder about the man's strength. However, it wasn't all Elmer. Theodore was helping from behind the scenes as well.
"Disciples from the Divine Sword Sect, kill your enemies and save your juniors!"
Elder Benjamin didn't care about anything. He knew that in a few minutes, the stronger elders will come back again from the sect to kill Ken according to the agreement earlier.
