  That made Shi Cang, Xiao Fei, and the others feel profound respect for him. If what Feng Geyin was saying was true, then he really was a true man.

  “Hmph, I didn’t expect this idiot to actually be so stupid. Well, killing him here is also good. There’s no need to find an excuse.” Ji Changkong watched from his room, a sinister smile on his face.

  “Should I go and cut him down first?” probed Zheng Mingkong.

  He had his own plans. In his eyes, Ji Changkong was the future leader of the Eastern Wasteland’s junior generation. Thus, he would be Ji Changkong’s right hand.

  In truth, he really was worried about Feng Geyin joining their side. If that happened, he would have a competitor. That was why he wanted to kill Feng Geyin. One reason was to prove his own worth, and another reason was to get rid of a possible troublemaker.

  “No need. That idiot Xue You dared ruin my plan. All the consequences will be left to him,” sneered Ji Changkong.

  Outside, Xue You was icily staring at Feng Geyin. He even suspected that this person was one of Ji Changkong’s chess pieces who was intentionally sneaking his way to Long Chen’s side to stab him in the back.

  But he quickly tossed aside that thinking. The probability of that was too low, and it would be too easy for Long Chen to notice it.

  “There’s no need to care too much. A few more of you, go out and kill half of the aboriginals. Remember, don’t kill them all. As for anyone else, do as you please,” ordered Xue You.

  Following his orders, thousands of Corrupt experts charged out, with a rank four Celestial leading them. He went straight toward Feng Geyin. Xue You was clearly using his true pieces now.

  BOOM!

  Suddenly, a spear shot out like a meteorite at the rank four Celestial. That rank four Celestial was startled and hastily blocked.

  “What?!” But as a result, the power of the spear sent him flying. If he hadn’t been caught by other experts, it was unknown how far he would have flown.

  “Great Earthen Spears!”

  No one had seen who had thrown this spear. Suddenly, two figures appeared in front of them. Their hands slapped on the ground.

  “Retreat!” Someone felt something was off and cried out with shock.

  Chapter 908 Soul Martial Dual Cultivation

  But it was too late. Countless spears shot out of the ground with each one of them thirty meters long and incomparably sharp. These experts’ sense of danger hadn’t even been triggered before they were skewered.

  Countless miserable screams rang out. The unending spears were like a huge wave devouring them. The majority of the Corrupt experts that had been charging out were now killed. Only a small portion with extremely sharp senses had managed to escape with their lives.

  But seeing the endless spears on the ground, they felt a cold breeze on their backs. Those who died had been killed in the most humiliating and terrifying way.

  The spears that were enveloped by runes had pierced out of the ground and out of their bodies. Those that hadn’t escaped fast enough and had been struck felt their bodies harden, and they quickly became earthen statues that then shattered.

  “Haha, what powerful earth energy. Brother, you really are vicious.” Up in the sky, there was a muscular man with a head as bright as the sun.

  That person was Gu Yang. As for his bald head, it wasn’t on purpose but because of a cultivation technique passed down from his ancestors. In this lifetime, he shouldn’t even think about growing a strand of hair on his head.

  Gu Yang held a golden spear, his muscles practically bulging with explosive power. Standing in the air, he gave off boundless pressure.

  “Haha, since you could get strong, how could us brothers not follow?” laughed Li Qi. After refining the Earth Spirit Bead’s energy, their Spirit Roots had changed. They had instantly become experts capable of controlling earth energy and were finally able to vent.

  Just as everyone was shocked by Gu Yang, Li Qi, and Song Mingyuan’s arrival, the sound of vomiting blood rang out in their ears.

  That expert fighting Meng Qi finally couldn’t endure any longer. He vomited several mouthfuls of blood and fainted. This fight, which had taken a day and a half, had finally reached its conclusion.

  Meng Qi put away the Soul Suppressing Tower. Standing in the air, her pale face recovered to its original rosy color. She didn’t appear the slightest bit tired.

  “You… you… you… PFT!” The Corrupt expert pointed at Meng Qi, shuddering. He vomited another mouthful of blood. He finally realized Meng Qi had just been playing him.

  “Sorry, Xue You. You won’t be able to achieve that desire of yours,” said Meng Qi indifferently.

  In truth, using the Soul Suppressing Tower was extremely taxing, especially to a person’s soul energy. It was just that Meng Qi was connected to the Soul Suppressing Tower’s item-spirit, and the two of them had worked together. The Soul Suppressing Tower had been in charge of defending, while Meng Qi had been in charge of absorbing energy from the air to make up for the consumption.

  Let alone fighting for a day and a half, she could have continued this kind of battle for a year without losing any soul energy.

  “Lord…” That expert looked at Xue You, aggrieved.

  Xue You icily stared at him. “I only care about the results, and I don’t like excuses. Sorry.”

  That expert let out a miserable scream as Xue You took out a bone claw and crushed his head.

  That white bone claw was like a greedy beast. It crazily sucked the blood from the crushed head, desiccating the corpse. His essence blood and Heavenly Dao runes had all been absorbed.

  The Corrupt experts’ hearts shook. Xue You’s ruthlessness was famed within the Corrupt path.

  Xue You slowly pulled back the bone claw, his expression calm, as if he had done something completely unremarkable. He turned to face Meng Qi. “You were stalling for time for them? Why hasn’t Long Chen come?”

  “If you’re patient, Long Chen will quickly arrive,” said Meng Qi indifferently.

  At this time, Meng Qi was standing with Gu Yang and the others in front of the aboriginals. They were greeting Feng Geyin’s people.

  Although it was their first time meeting, after following Long Chen for so long, they had been infected by his habit of using intuition to judge others. Just looking at Feng Geyin, they judged him to be a righteous man. He didn’t seem to be that kind of petty, scheming person. Thus, they directly treated him as one of them.

  Seeing Gu Yang and the others treat them like their own people without even asking anything, Feng Geyin couldn't help being moved. This kind of magnanimity was something only the legendary Dragonblood Legion could possess. Even though he hadn’t seen Long Chen yet, just this was enough for him to sacrifice his life for.

  “Wait for him? No, my time is precious. Even if I have to wait for him, I have to prepare some gifts first.” Xue You icily smiled. Now that he knew Long Chen was coming, he was at ease. He turned to the people behind him. “These aboriginals have no use anymore. Kill them all. As for Long Chen’s group, I only want that woman alive. I only need the heads of the others. Now’s the time for you to display your use. Don’t disappoint me.”

  With Long Chen’s woman and brothers here, then with his character, even if this place was a mountain of blades or a sea of flames, he would come.

  Since that was the case, these aboriginals weren’t important. As for Ji Changkong’s plans, he hadn’t cared about them from the start. He had always believed that schemes were useless in front of power.

  As long as he could kill Long Chen, he wouldn’t care about any plans. He would then lead his army to slaughter their way into the aboriginals’ ancestral lands. Even if they had Foundation Forging experts guarding it, he was confident in being able to destroy their altars in the first instant.

  Once the altars were destroyed, they would be under the heavens’ curse and would be like sheep for the slaughter. At that time, the Corrupt path could not only offer sacrifices
to their corrupt weapons, but they could also wantonly snatch their resources. He was already getting impatient for it.

  Xue You hoped that by the time Long Chen arrived, Meng Qi would already be in his hands. At that moment, he would display Gu Yang and the others’ heads as gifts. That was the only way to win back the face he had lost.

  “Kill!” The Corrupt experts roared and charged. Other than Xue You, they had all sprung into motion.

  “Everyone below rank four Celestials, fall back! There’s no need for you to participate. All you need to do is protect yourselves. Otherwise, we won’t be able to face boss,” shouted Gu Yang.

  The aboriginals and disciples from the Wind Chant Pavilion were startled. Like this, wouldn’t the only one participating in the battle be Feng Geyin?

  “Everyone, fall back!” Shi Cang ordered his people. A battle of experts on this scale could kill them with just shockwaves. Although he was unwilling, he had to admit that a battle on this level wasn’t something they could participate in.

  Following Shi Cang’s shout, all the aboriginals rapidly retreated. The battlefield was left to Meng Qi and the others. As for the Wind Chant Pavilion’s disciples, they hesitated, but in the end, they retreated with the aboriginals.

  BOOM!

  A rank four Celestial had already exchanged blows with Gu Yang. That terrifying power caused the void to shake.

  Gu Yang’s spear shook, and like a dragon coming out of the sea, his aura erupted. As a rank three Celestial, he obstinately held back this rank four Celestial. Both of them were brute power fighters, so their exchanges were particularly resounding.

  On the other hand, Yue Zifeng was fighting with the previous spear-wielding rank four Celestial. Sword Qi erupted, and spear-images shook the sky. Neither side could take the advantage.

  Meng Qi had just been about to use a large-scale soul art again to kill these experts when her heart shook. A terrifying ray of Sword Qi locked down on her.

  The Soul Suppressing Tower appeared in front of her, blocking this Sword Qi. This was an extremely powerful attack, and the Soul Suppressing Tower quivered. It was actually knocked back, and Meng Qi felt a burst of pain in her soul. This attack had also contained a spiritual attack.

  For a physical attack to contain a spiritual aspect shocked Meng Qi. Only now did she see the one who attacked her. It was a woman and also one of the Corrupt path’s rank four Celestials.

  “Are you curious? Hmph, then I’ll let you see the power of soul martial dual cultivation!” The woman raised her sword, and sword flowers suddenly appeared in front of her. They transformed into millions of rays of sword-light that shot toward Meng Qi.

  Meng Qi rapidly formed hand seals, and the Soul Suppressing Tower rapidly grew, becoming three hundred meters tall. It revolved in the air, and her enemy’s sword-light all shattered upon coming into contact with it.

  ”Hmph, I knew your tower was strange. However, you’ll still die.”

  Suddenly, a voice rang out behind Meng Qi, startling her.

  This Corrupt woman’s cultivation was extremely terrifying. It was unknown what she had done in order to suddenly appear behind Meng Qi while she was distracted by the sword-light. The Corrupt woman launched a sudden sneak-attack that came too fast to react to.

  Even though she was being sneak attacked, Meng Qi’s expression didn’t change. She shook her head. “Sorry, Long Chen has said that my life isn’t just my own anymore. It belongs to everyone who loves me, so I can’t die!”

  The Corrupt woman suddenly sensed that something was off. Seeing the hand seal Meng Qi had formed, her expression changed.

  A furious roar shook the sky. A huge figure appeared, and one of its wings smashing toward her. The huge wing struck her like a hammer, smashing her into the ground.

  “Eighth rank Earth Dragon?!” She crawled up from the ground, blood dripping out of the corner of her mouth. She looked in shock at the Earth Dragon, which, despite constantly flapping its wings, was still rapidly descending from the sky.

  BOOM!

  The Earth Dragon crashed into the ground, leaving behind a huge crater. Although it had wings, its body was too heavy to fly.

  Suddenly, it opened its mouth, and a fiery wave of heat attacked the Corrupt woman.

  Chapter 909 Fantasy Blade Storm

  The dragon breath released a sea of fire that rapidly spread. The Corrupt woman had no time to dodge before being submerged in the flames.

  Countless miserable screams rang out. The Earth Dragon’s fire breath covered a huge area, and some of the Corrupt experts were burned to charcoal.

  The Earth Dragon Golden Blaze was ranked first on the beast flame rankings, and that was the beast flame from a sixth rank Earth Dragon. Now that it was coming from an eighth rank Earth Dragon, its power was even more incredible.

  Even Sea Expansion experts were unable to block it if they didn’t have protective Treasure items. And to activate a Treasure item to protect oneself required the Treasure item to have at least reached the middle grade level. That wasn’t something just anyone had.

  A single wave of dragon breath killed hundreds of Corrupt experts.

  When the dragon breath faded, it revealed the Corrupt woman was being enveloped by sword-light. She shot toward Meng Qi while activating her Treasure item’s true power.

  She finally understood Meng Qi’s power and didn’t hold back at all. Her sword grew to a shocking size, and Sword Qi filled the sky. That Sword Qi was mixed with fakes. Some of them weren’t true Sword qi and were only condensed from Spiritual Strength. However, it was difficult to tell the difference. This was the terror of soul martial dual cultivation.

  If you treated the spiritual attack as a physical attack, or the other way around, you would suffer greatly.

  This woman’s position in the Corrupt path was extremely high, and her soul martial dual cultivation’s prowess was shocking. Therefore, she had few opponents to compete with.

  Now she had just joined Xue You, and so she was planning on using a thunderous blow to defeat her opponents, showing off her power.

  The Corrupt path was different from the Righteous path. Their principles were extremely simple: life was survival of the fittest. The only important thing was power.

  Experts only needed other experts. They didn’t feel that following another person was an insult, as long as that person was strong enough. Even if the strong wanted to enslave them, they could accept that. The Corrupt path’s principles were that the weak existed only to serve the strong.

  But subordinates needed to display their value if they wanted to be viewed more importantly and gain more resources.

  Meng Qi used the Soul Suppressing Tower to block the physical attacks while personally blocking the spiritual attacks. At the same time, she was also controlling the Earth Dragon to attack.

  The Corrupt woman was startled and infuriated. She found that with the assistance of the Earth Dragon, Meng Qi’s defense was seamless. Each time she fell into a disadvantageous position, the Earth Dragon would immediately launch an attack.

  The Earth Dragon was extremely strong. Its breath, its wings, and its tail all possessed immense power, enough power to threaten the Corrupt woman’s life. She suddenly realized that the power she was so proud of and confident in didn’t have the slightest effect against Meng Qi.

  Meng Qi stood on the Earth Dragon’s head, her expression calm. The Earth Dragon completely made up for her low defense.

  While Meng Qi and Yue Zifeng were fighting, Gu Yang was also battling another rank four Celestial with a warhammer.

  Gu Yang’s opponent was extremely tall. He was more than two meters tall, but his waist was as wide as his height, like a large balloon.

  Although his appearance was comical, his power was shocking. Each smash of his hammer caused heaven and earth to rumble. Gu Yang fought fiercely against him. Every single one of his muscles and veins bulged, and three-colored runes surged behind him.

  What shocked Xue You and Ji Changkong was
that Meng Qi, Gu Yang, and Yue Zifeng were all rank three Celestials, but could still battle the rank four Celestials. Their runes were clearly dimmer than usual, showing that their Heavenly Dao runes were being suppressed. However, they were still able to fight against rank four Celestials without falling into a disadvantage.

  This was an extremely unusual situation. For a rank three Celestial to become a rank four Celestial didn’t just require opportunity. It required the power of innate Spirit Blood. Those who could become rank four Celestials all possessed a trace of Spirit Blood. However, the rank four Celestials that had advanced didn’t possess very dense Spirit Blood, which was why they couldn’t compare to Xue You and made the smart decision not to fight him.

  But even if these rank four Celestials didn’t possess dense Spirit Blood, in a one against one, they could definitely dominate rank three Celestials. Originally, they had been thinking of using the most direct, most domineering method to defeat their opponents. But what made them feel awkward was that they were unable to do a thing.

  While the three intense battles were being fought, thousands of Corrupt experts were flooding toward the aboriginals.

  Feng Geyin met them head-on. Three innate rank three Celestials immediately surrounded him.

  At this time, the difference was made apparent. Feng Geyin was also a rank four Celestial, but just fighting against these three was taxing.

  Normally, a rank four Celestial would be able to fight against eight innate rank three Celestials. Stronger ones might even be able to win ten against one.

  But Feng Geyin came from poor origins, and his sect was only able to offer him limited resources. His Treasure item was only middle grade, and his foundation wasn’t even as good as most of the Corrupt path’s rank three Celestials. He wasn’t qualified to fight against the other rank four Celestials.

  It was precisely because Zheng Mingkong knew Feng Geyin’s power that he dared say he would kill him. He had that confidence.

  Feng Geyin had to fight all-out in order to maintain a tie against these three Corrupt experts. Seeing that, the other Corrupt experts ignored him and continued toward Song Mingyuan and Li Qi. The two of them were the final defense before the aboriginals. As long as they got past them, they could undergo a massacre.
