Chapter 920: Want to See Who Has Greater Numbers?
It was a simple, direct punch.
Yet it flashed through the air, boring a hole through the sky with its unstoppably sharp, blood-colored radiance.
A moment later, the Demon Ape Emperor cried out in agony.
There was now a fully ten-foot-wide, bloody hole that went right through his towering several-thousand-foot body. Blood gushed from the wound, pouring to the ground like rain.
But before he could stabilize himself, the White Bone Emperor attacked once more.
As quick as the wind and forceful as lightning.
Compared to the ape’s several-thousand-foot body, he looked utterly miniscule.
Yet his imposing aura connected heaven and earth!
The Demon Ape Emperor had no time to dodge. All he could do was swing his mountainous bone staff and block the attack head-on.
Boom!
A grand battle broke out.
In the blink of an eye, numerous bloody holes had appeared all over the Demon Ape Emperor’s hulking figure. Rivers of blood gushed from countless wounds.
He tried to dodge, but it was to no avail.
The White Bone Emperor’s appalling murderous intent had firmly locked onto him. Every time he attacked, he was lightning-quick and tyrannical. He struck with unbelievable force, the majesty of a hegemon on full display.
The Emperors who’d followed the Demon Ape Emperor into battle had long since dispersed. All of them fled far away, not daring to draw near.
When experts of their level clashed, the aftershock alone was enough to annihilate them!
When the Emperors on Yin-Yang Divine Mountain saw this, all of them were astonished.
They finally realized why a young Spiritual Revolution Realm cultivator like Su Yi was so fearless.
Lu Changming, Feng Yuzhi, and the others locked in combat with Malevolent Release and the libationers saw what was happening too. Their spirits soared, and much of their concern dissipated.
But they still didn’t dare to get complacent.
After all, they weren’t just up against the five libationers of the Mysterious Netherworld Divine Court. They had to face three Dark Vassals, too!
“Dammit!!” The Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow was enraged, and its blood-red eyes shone with viciousness.
And here it had thought it had this battle in the bag.
Who could have anticipated the White Bone Emperor’s appearance? It caught the crow completely off guard!
“Little crow, remember to twist your head off for me,” said Su Yi calmly, still sprawled out in his wicker chair.
“The victor is yet to be determined!” The Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow took a deep breath, then said coldly, “Besides, do you really think the White Bone Emperor is enough to turn this around all by himself? I’ll just have to teach you the true meaning of despair!”
It suddenly let out a long cry. “Old centipede, Jade Mountain Monarch, Blood-Robed Yao… it’s your turn to fight!”
He called nine names in total, all in a single breath.
Boom!
Heaven and earth suddenly trembled, and a distant mountain range collapsed as a several-hundred-foot Blood Centipede soared into the air, its blazing, monstrous aura filling the skies.
The Thousand-Legged Mountain Monarch!
The ruler of Blackmist?Swamp, one of the City of the Wrongfully Dead’s forbidden zones.
Practically simultaneously——
The others on the battlefield suddenly discovered one newly arrived terrifying figure after another.
All of them were hegemons?of one of the City of the Wrongfully Dead’s numerous danger zones. Who knew how many cultivators had fallen at their hands over the years?
Yet now, all of them had appeared on the battlefield together!
“Dammit!”
“How is this possible…”
Lu Changming, Feng Yuzhi, and the others’ hearts sank.
During their earlier attempts to break through their foes’ encirclement, they’d had no idea how many terrifying spirits were waiting just beyond the battlefield!
“This…” Over on Yin-Yang Divine Mountain, the Emperors’ hearts shook with fright, and they felt a chill in their hands and feet.
“Hahaha! Well, kid? I’ve already washed my neck, and I’m waiting for you to claim my head, but it seems… you’ll never get the chance!”
The Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow burst into mad laughter. It was as smug as could be.
Tonight, it had rallied its forces, all to capture enough Emperors for the blood sacrifice that would free the Netherworld King from captivity!
Given the circumstances, how could it possibly tolerate anything unexpected happening?
It was no exaggeration to say that the forces it had sent into battle tonight were enough to flatten any of the Netherworld’s peak orthodoxies with ease!
Even if you searched all of the Netherworld’s six territories and thirteen realms, you’d find no comparable army!
“Little crow, is that everything you’ve got?” asked Su Yi.
The Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow said coldly, “It’s more than enough to kill all of you!”
Su Yi, however, shook his head. He even seemed a bit disappointed. “It seems I overestimated your abilities.”
The Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow was stunned. Then, it couldn’t resist the urge to burst into laughter. “You’re still so impudent even in the face of certain doom? How ridiculous, kid!”
As the two of them conversed, the grand battle raged on.
The Thousand-Legged Mountain Monarch and the eight other terrifying evil spirits instantly surrounded the White Bone Emperor.
The severely injured Demon Ape Emperor seized this opportunity to escape with his life.
In another part of the battlefield, Malevolent Release, the other libationers, and the Dark Vassals had already seized the advantage against You Xue and the other Emperors.
But even after seeing this, Su Yi remained in his wheelchair, perfectly content. He didn’t show even the slightest trace of panic.
Instead, he smiled. “Very well. It’s about time this boring battle comes to an end.”
He waved his sleeves through the air.
The Book of Diting?manifested numerous strange images of light.
Then——
A man in dark robes appeared out of nowhere. He had the air of a Daoist immortal, and he carried a feather whisk.
Shortly after he appeared, blood-colored stars revolved around him, and a terrifying, bloody, baleful energy swept outward like a windstorm, devastating the battlefield.
“Old Monster Falling Star!!”
The Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow’s laughter came to an abrupt halt. Its blood-red eyes bulged, and it completely lost its cool.
It snapped, “You agreed not to get mixed up in the Mysterious Netherworld Divine Court’s affairs! So why are you letting some kid order you around?”
“I changed my mind. What, am I not allowed to do that?” Divine Monarch Falling Star snorted and said with an air of righteousness.
The Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow promptly shut its beak. It was so angry that its feathers stood on end.
Meanwhile, Divine Monarch Falling Star swung his feather whisk and charged over to where the White Bone Emperor was fighting.
As he approached, he said, “Jade Mountain Monarch, Blood-Robed Yao, if you don’t want to die, hurry up and get out of here! Unless the Netherworld King escapes confinement today, no one can save you!”
His voice resounded through the sky like a bell. It was audible throughout the battlefield.
There was a disturbance amongst the nine terrifying evil spirits fighting the White Bone Emperor. All of them were surprised and uncertain.
The Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow was beside itself with anger. It hissed, “Falling Star, you old bastard! I swear that sooner or later, I’ll flatten that damn nest of yours!”
The inauspicious bird had only just said this when it saw something that left it dumbstruck.
Over on Yin-Yang Divine Mountain, one terrifying figure after another appeared after Divine Monarch Falling Star.
“Evil Emperor Red Silk, the Illusory Cloud Demon, Mountain Monarch Blood Candle…”
As it recognized these terrifying figures, the Nine Serenities Crow felt as if it were being repeatedly pelted by lightning. Its heart sank, and its expression was unsightly.
When the seventh of these terrifying figures appeared, the Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow felt as if it were about to go insane. It trembled from head to toe, its eyes bulging with rage.
Evil Emperor Red Silk, the Illusory Cloud Demon, and the others were all masters of one of the City of the Wrongfully Dead’s forbidden grounds.
Even if they weren’t quite comparable to White Bone Emperor and Divine Monarch Falling Star, they weren’t much weaker.
The Thousand-Legged Mountain Monarch and other eight terrifying existences who’d pledged themselves to the Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow’s cause were obviously inferior!
The reason for this was simple.
It was just as Qing Teng had said; only a handful of the masters of the City of the Wrongfully Dead’s numerous forbidden grounds had submitted to the Nine Serenitie Netherworld Crow.
Why had this particular group submitted? Because they were weaker than the Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow.
Those who’d refused to submit were all tough customers. Quite a few of them were even strong enough to test themselves against the Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow.
And a few, like the White Bone Emperor and Divine Monarch Falling Star, were so strong that not even the Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow would dare offend them lightly.
But the Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow would never have guessed that such terrifying existences would appear today, much less that they’d all be acting on Su Yi’s orders!
This caught the crow completely off guard; it felt as if someone had picked up a staff and whacked it in the skull. Its heart was full of rage, indignation, and astonishment.
“Why is this happening? Each of these old monsters is prouder and more unrestrained than the one before. All of them are fierce and domineering. Why have they submitted to a Spiritual Revolution Realm young man?”
The Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow was rooted to the spot.
Meanwhile, when the combatants saw Evil Emperor Red Silk and the others, a wave of uproar spread throughout the battlefield.
Even the libationers’ expressions changed dramatically.
Even if you’d hit them over the head, they could never have anticipated this. It wasn’t just the White Bone Emperor and Divine Monarch Falling Star. Even Evil Emperor Red Silk, the Illusory Cloud Demon, and several others were acting on Su Yi’s orders!!
Feng Yuzhi, Lu Changming, and the others were utterly astonished too.
Feng Yuzhi sighed to herself.?No wonder he was so fearless when he arrived here. No wonder he disregarded all the enemy forces… With such a ferocious group of assistants, he can go wherever he wants in the City of the Wrongfully Dead without fear!
“Enough, enough! I don’t want to fight anymore! You people fight dirty!” The Thousand-Legged Mountain Monarch suddenly cried out, turned, and fled.
The other terrifying evil spirits surrounding the White Bone Emperor and Divine Monarch Falling Star were frantic too. One after another, they turned tail and fled.
“Black crow, it’s not that I don’t want to help, but they’re too strong. Bye!” said a terrifying evil spirit. It then disappeared without a trace before its words finished echoing through the air.
“Damn crow, you’re obviously trying to get us killed!” said another terrifying evil spirit. It viciously cursed the bird out, then fled faster than anyone else.
Watching this left both Yuan Linning?and Qing Mu tongue-tied.
How majestic and imposing had those evil spirits been earlier? They were experts who could command the wind and rain!
Yet now, they were like startled rabbits. Many of them were gone in a flash.
But there was one evil spirit who failed to escape in time.
The Blood-Robed Yao.
The White Bone Emperor, Divine Monarch Falling Star, Evil Emperor Red Silk, and the various other terrifying evil spirits had him surrounded. This left him on the verge of a mental breakdown.
“Your Excellencies, please, stay your hand! Honestly, I haven’t liked that crow for a long time. From this moment forth, it’s my enemy! The two of us can no longer coexist beneath the same sky!” The Blood-Robed Yao pounded his chest and shouted to express his sincerity.
Divine Monarch Falling Star said with an air of righteousness, “I hate nothing more than traitors, but since you’ve turned over a new leaf, I can spare your life just this once.”
“.....”
The crowd had nothing to say to that.
Earlier, the Nine Serenities Netherworld Crow had asked Divine Monarch Falling Star why he’d gotten involved. Divine Monarch Falling Star had said with confidence, “I changed my mind. What, am I not allowed to do that?”
The contrast left them feeling a bit strange.
“Many thanks, Your Excellencies!” The Blood-Robed Yao practically wept with gratitude.
But it was then that Su Yi furrowed his brow. “Fight quickly and get it over with.”
