Highsage Shenwei could not see his surroundings, but he could still hear. Thus, he angrily scolded, “Shaman God, show yourself if you dare!”
“Gaga, is that someone from Eversky Island? How’s your senior doing? Back then, he cared for my disciple,” Shaman God spoke in a sinister voice.
Another elder suddenly barked out, “Shaman God, back then, you slaughtered the Yu—what more do you want now?”
“Gaga, the Yu family was seeking death, and I cannot be blamed for what happened. As for today, I only want to bring back a few outstanding juniors to inherit my Neohuman Alliance,” Shaman God said.
Yuan Ke took a step forward, and Shaman God snickered. “I suggest that none of you move, as moving could result in your demise, gaga.”
…
Within the Mountain and Seas Zone, the moment the black-clothed corpse king revealed itself, all of the battles on the golden screens instantly stopped.
Shang Qing raised a hand, and a qi flow whistled through the air as it hurtled towards the corpse king.
When the Neohuman Alliance appeared, all other grievances had to be put aside, as exterminating the Neohuman Alliance always took precedence.
Suddenly, a streak of light flashed by. Someone had appeared behind Shang Qing some time ago, and they had short silver hair. Both of the person’s eyes gleamed when they smiled, though his lips curled up into a strange arc. He spun a butterfly knife in his hands as he casually said, “You’re too careless. This won’t do, First Honored Chosen.”
Shang Qing’s eyes flashed, and he slowly turned around. “What? When?”
There was a plopping sound as fresh blood suddenly spurted out from both of Shang Qing’s legs while he slowly collapsed to the ground.
The man with short silver hair twirled around with a gentle smile. “I traded blows with you once before. Did you forget?’
Shang Qing’s legs were bleeding, and he stared at the silver-haired man in concentration. He eventually remembered; this person had ambushed him on the seafloor, but he had been injured and chased off by the Tri-Yang Technique.
The silver-haired man smiled softly and bowed at his waist while still staring at Shang Qing. “The Tri-Yang Technique is indeed powerful, but my death energy isn’t bad either.”
Shang Qing’s expression grew sharp. “At that time, you hid your death energy within my body?”
The curve of the silver-haired man’s smile grew even wider. “It’s no wonder why you’re the First Honored Chosen! In solo combat, nobody is a match for the Tri-Yang Technique, but in terms of hidden attacks, my Specter Clan isn’t bad.”
Shang Qing clenched his fists and tried to stand, but his legs had been maimed. There was also death energy lingering within the wounds, which would take him some time to remove.
The butterfly knife spun about the man’s fingers before he suddenly attacked Shang Qing once again. The flow of qi swirling around Shang Qing’s body slammed towards the assailant, but the attacker was exceptionally fast, and he actually managed to dodge the qi flow. The butterfly knife streaked through the void and sliced at Shang Qing’s neck.
Even if Shang Qing was unable to move, the Tri-Yang Technique was still a mysterious technique. Despite launching multiple attacks, the silver-haired man’s efforts were all for naught.
At this moment, Xia Jiuyou and the others had finished crossing the golden screen, and they moved to attack the silver-haired man in unison.
The man looked over at Xia Jiuyou. “The Nine Clones Secret Technique? I’m a close acquaintance of one of your clones.”
A dim radiance appeared over Xia Jiuyou’s palm and formed a blade that he then slashed out with: the Xia family’s Triple Blade Will.
From behind, Ling Gong’s white spear thrust forward, and it was accompanied by the sound of a ringing bell.
Even further away, Yuhua Mavis, Unseen Light, Qiu Shi all suddenly appeared. However, Wen Sansi was nowhere to be seen.
Qiu Shi was quite upset. Right before the corpse king had flown out of the giant eyes, she had become sick of Wen Sansi’s defensive barrier, and so, she had used her Teleportation Formation sourcebox array to toss Wen Sansi far away from the golden screen. No one knew how far he had flown away.
If only she had been one step slower.
Upon seeing a combined attack from several top experts coming at him, Silver snapped his fingers. From down below, the black-clothed corpse king instantly abandoned Lu Yin’s small group inside the space within the eyes as it raced towards the golden screen. The creature bellowed as it unleashed a fierce punch.
Yuhua Mavis moved in front of the crowd and met the attack with a punch of her own.
Bang!
The collision shook the void, and the resulting terrifying and powerful shockwaves forced Unseen Light and the others to dodge them.
Silver leaped backwards, grinning ear to ear.
The corpse king was overpowered by Yuhua Mavis’s punch, and it backed up a dozen steps.
Yuhua Mavis also retreated, but she only moved three steps back.
Silver was surprised. “You live up to your position as a Treeheart Descendant of the Mavis family, seeing as how you can actually overpower an Enlighter realm corpse king that’s transformed twice. Let’s keep going.”
Yuhua Mavis’s knuckles were flushed red, and she stared at the corpse king standing across from her in utter shock. She had just used an unprecedented amount of power, and the power of her punch had surpassed what she had used against both Lu Yin and Unseen Light. Despite that, she had only been able to push the corpse king back slightly. This showed the power of the corpse king’s two transformations.
This thought caused her to clench her fists as she lashed out with another punch.
Xia Jiuyou’s second will blade sliced towards Silver.
Silver continued to sport a horrifying smile on his face that would looked more fitting on a fox. The butterfly knife spun through his hands, and it flashed about in a strange manner, though it actually managed to slice through Xia Jiuyou’s second will blade. “So you’ve learned the Nine Clones Secret Technique? How many have you merged?”
The blade in Xia Jiuyou’s hands slashed down again: the third will blade.
Xia Jiuyou’s third will blade was something that had even made Lei Nü feel apprehensive, and she had suppressed it with the secret technique Discipline by making Xia Jiuyou unwilling to use the technique. This attack had even attracted Shang Qing’s notice, and it had also sliced through Ling Gong’s innate gift in one attack. The power of this blade was incredible.
At this moment, that blade sliced at Silver.
Silver’s expression did not change, though he retreated step by step. The black-clothed corpse king moved in front of Silver, and it raised both hands, trying to catch the third will blade between its palms. It gave out a low growl as its body was continually pushed backwards by the will blade, which eventually drew out two long marks on the golden screen.
From the other side, Yuhua Mavis raced towards Silver and unleashed a punch.
Ling Gong, Unseen Light, and Qiu Shi had not attacked yet, as they believed that victory had already been attained.
Silver evaded Yuhua Mavis’s punch, though verdant green grass had wound its way beneath his feet some time earlier, and it bound him tight, just like what had happened to Lu Yin before.
However, Yuhua Mavis did not show Silver the same gentleness that she had with Lu Yin. The grass binding Silver flickered with a green light, and Silver’s expression showed a slight change. His eyes opened a little wider, and he let out a sharp breath as a stream of black air appeared all over his body; it was death energy.
The appearance of the death energy instantly destroyed the green grass, and Yuhua Mavis’s eyes grew cold. She raised a fist to lash out with another punch, and the force behind this attack was so tremendous that the void could not even endure the power before the punch was unleashed.
When the fist moved forward, a bang echoed through the sky and caused many people to jump in fright.
Silver stood in place, and the black-clothed corpse king roared at the sky from where it was standing near Silver. Its green eyes suddenly turned red—no, a brilliant scarlet. This red color was the color of blood that stained all wars. The creature’s strength caused ripples to spread out in the air; not only did they crush Xia Jiuyou’s third will blade, but the might of the creature also made Yuhua Mavis feel nervous. She was so disturbed that she forcibly changed the target of her punch to the black-clothed corpse king.
