#336 - The Might of the Demon Slayer
The Immeasurable Dharma King of the Immeasurable Bright King Sect tragically died amidst this volatile situation.
The leader of the Star Demon Sea also couldn't escape, perishing along with him.
No one had anticipated that the situation would undergo such earth-shattering changes in the blink of an eye.
The surroundings fell into a deathly silence in an instant.
It was as if time itself had frozen in that moment.
Everyone stared wide-eyed, fixedly watching the sudden turn of events before them, their expressions frozen in shock and awe, as if the entire world had collapsed.
They truly struggled to accept such a shocking outcome in such a short period.
After all, the three major forces had dominated the Western Desert for so long, and such a situation where two giants fell simultaneously was unprecedented.
Bright King Ox-Head stood there dumbfounded, staring blankly at everything.
His heart was filled with sorrow as he tried to approach the remains of the Immeasurable Dharma King.
However, he was already severely injured, and every movement felt like a great weight.
Helpless, he could only let out a long sigh, his voice filled with endless grief and helplessness:
"Amitabha..."
Then, he slowly sat down cross-legged, enduring the pain as he circulated his energy to heal his injuries, while sincerely praying for the Dharma King who had already passed away.
The disciples of the Immeasurable Bright King Sect were already in complete disarray.
"Dharma King!!!"
Cries of grief rose and fell.
Some disciples had tears brimming in their eyes, glistening teardrops swirling in their sockets, slowly sliding down their cheeks.
Others rushed towards the Dharma King's remains, as if it was their last hope, shouting heart-wrenching words, their voices echoing in the valley, tearing at the heart.
More disciples surrounded the Dharma King's remaining robes, sitting cross-legged with reverence, their hands clasped together, chanting scriptures, their voices filling the air, praying for the Dharma King to be reborn in paradise.
Among the crowd, Ayina's body trembled slightly.
She stared wide-eyed, unable to believe the bloody and cruel scene before her, muttering to herself:
"This... how could this be..."
The development of this conflict had far exceeded her imagination, turning into such an unimaginable situation.
The two people who had just held significant positions in the power struggles of the various forces had vanished from this world in an instant.
This sudden change completely shattered her predictions of the situation.
The people of the Star Demon Sea were also stunned and at a loss by this sudden bad news.
"Leader!!!"
They all thumped to their knees, wailing in grief.
Ming Cangwu, as their leader, had always been the core and soul of the Star Demon Sea, like a strong pillar supporting the entire Star Demon Sea.
Now, his sudden death was like the collapse of that pillar, plunging the entire Star Demon Sea into endless darkness and confusion, losing its direction.
The valley was filled with a suffocating atmosphere of shock.
Everyone seemed to be in a terrible nightmare, unable to wake up for a long time.
No one had expected the situation to take such a tragic turn, and where the road ahead would lead?
Everyone was plunged into deep confusion.
Suddenly! A bone-chilling cold suddenly struck, as if winter had quietly arrived.
Everything around was rapidly freezing into frost at this moment.
"Whoosh!"
Along with the cold air, a figure was violently knocked away like a shooting star, staggering back several steps on the ground before barely managing to steady himself.
Immediately afterward, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Pfft!"
Before the blood could even touch the ground, it instantly froze into red ice crystals, shimmering with an eerie light in the dim light.
This person was actually the fierce beast-like Huyan Xian!
No one had expected that Huyan Xian, known for his bravery, would be injured so quickly.
Even though Huyan Xian was filled with hatred and murderous intent, he was still defeated by Bai Qiuying's fierce offensive and injured.
But how could Huyan Xian give up so easily!
Just as he was about to rise up and fight again, he suddenly felt as if his left foot had lost its sensation and was not listening to commands.
Huyan Xian was shocked and looked down in horror.
He saw that his left foot was firmly sealed in ice, like a delicate ice sculpture.
Huyan Xian never expected that he had not only been defeated by one move but had also been defeated by a second move without realizing it.
His heart sank, and he exerted force.
"Crack!"
With a crisp sound, his severely frozen left foot completely fell off his body.
Under the extreme cold, Huyan Xian's foot had been frozen as brittle as glass, easily detaching from his body.
Such a terrifying scene made even the brave Huyan Xian frown and gasp.
He knew that the situation was critical at this moment and dared not delay any longer, hurriedly circulating his energy to resist the cold that was frantically invading along his leg, while gritting his teeth and cursing:
"This old geezer!"
"I will definitely kill you with my own hands!"
Although it was difficult to fight again in a short time, Huyan Xian still glared fiercely at Bai Qiuying in mid-air, his eyes filled with unwillingness and anger.
The sect leader of the Great Snow Mountain Sect, Bai Qiuying, was holding a cane, suspended in mid-air.
Her old face was flushed with excitement, like the afterglow of the setting sun shining on the ancient city walls.
She laughed loudly, her voice echoing in the valley:
"The Immeasurable Dharma King has passed away, and Ming Cangwu is dead."
"Bright King Ox-Head is seriously injured, and this barbarian Huyan Xian has also been wounded by me!"
"It seems that the Western Desert will flourish under my Great Snow Mountain Sect! Hahahahahaha!"
"After tonight, who can compete with my Great Snow Mountain Sect?!"
Bai Qiuying really did not expect that things would develop so smoothly.
At first, she thought that the Great Snow Mountain Sect would be at a disadvantage tonight and fall into a bitter battle.
But who could have imagined that the evolution of the situation would be completely beyond everyone's expectations.
Today, the Great Snow Mountain Sect has become the biggest winner in this conflict!
As long as she kills Huyan Xian, then the overall situation tonight will be settled!
The defeat of the Immeasurable Bright King Sect and the Star Demon Sea is already doomed.
The Great Snow Mountain Sect will surely become the most powerful force in the Western Desert.
From then on, the entire Western Desert will follow Bai Qiuying's lead, and she will stand at the peak of this land, overlooking all living beings!
The disciples of the Great Snow Mountain Sect, hearing the words of their sect leader, were greatly encouraged and mustered their strength to intensify their siege against Huyan Xian's subordinates.
With the blessing of the incredibly powerful Snowfall Formation, the offensive and defensive power of the Great Snow Mountain Sect disciples had been greatly enhanced.
Huyan Xian's group of subordinates gradually could not resist under this fierce offensive, and could only struggle desperately like trapped beasts, and it seemed that their destruction was only a matter of time.
On the other side.
Left Demon Envoy Leng You hurriedly ran out of the cave.
When she saw the scene before her, her pretty face instantly turned as white as paper, her eyes revealing deep fear and confusion.
She couldn't believe that the leader had really left them.
The Sect Leader was the heart and soul, the pillar of the entire Star Demon Sea. His existence maintained its stability and prosperity.
Now that he was gone, the vast Star Demon Sea would inevitably fall apart and descend into an abyss of no return.
Especially since Ming Cangwu had a life-saving grace towards Leng You.
Back then, when Leng You was still a child, she almost starved to death on the streets. Fortunately, Ming Cangwu took her into the sect and took care of her meticulously, which allowed her to survive tenaciously.
At this moment, Leng You could no longer suppress the grief in her heart, and two lines of clear tears silently slid down her cheeks.
Filled with unwillingness, she looked up to the sky and desperately shouted:
"Tyrant Fiend King!!!"
"My Sect Leader served you loyally, why did you watch him die?!"
The newest novels are first published on 6_9_book_bar!
"I know you're here! I also know you could have saved him!"
"Why did you stand by and watch him die? Answer me!!!"
Upon hearing this, Hu Yanxian, disregarding his own healing, abruptly turned his head, his eyes wide, and glared fiercely at Leng You, shouting sharply:
"Shut up! How dare you yell at the King!?!"
Everyone around was stunned upon hearing these words.
Could it be that the Tyrant Fiend King had really come to the Western Desert?
This was no small matter, and it could even change the course of the entire situation.
Even Ayina was stunned.
She couldn't help but recall Liang Jin's discussion with her about the possibility of the Tyrant Fiend King's arrival.
Thinking of this, Ayina's heart couldn't help but pound.
She silently prayed in her heart that this matter would not happen.
On the other side.
At this moment, Leng You was filled with grief and indignation, and how could she pay attention to Hu Yanxian's scolding?
She was still shouting loudly in grief and indignation:
"Tyrant Fiend King, why did you do this?"
"Could it be that you really want all the leaders of the three major forces to die, so you can unify the Western Desert?!"
"Is it possible that in your eyes, all of us are just pawns that you can use and discard at will?"
"Don't pretend to be deaf and mute, answer me!!!"
This time, her shouts finally received a response.
A cold snort, like a muffled thunder, suddenly echoed above the valley.
As soon as this cold snort sounded, everyone felt as if their hearts had been squeezed hard by an invisible hand. Intense pain struck, causing them to frown and sweat instantly covered their foreheads.
This cold snort actually caused everyone who was still fighting fiercely to stop their movements in shock, as if time had frozen again at this moment.
The fact that this single cold snort could cause such a terrifying effect was truly chilling.
Even Bai Qiuying in mid-air trembled slightly, and her originally smug expression instantly turned ugly.
Her eyes widened as she searched around in shock, trying to find the location of the person who made this cold snort.
Then, she saw it!
Just above the valley!
The valley was narrow, and one could see a bright moon hanging high and stars twinkling when looking up.
But at this moment, a magnificent carriage was slowly flying over, steadily suspended in the sky above the valley.
This luxurious carriage was pulled by five magnificent horses!
However, what was amazing was that these horses could walk slowly in the air as if they were on flat ground.
As if some mysterious and powerful force was holding up the carriage and the five horses.
This terrifying power alone was enough to make everyone tremble from the depths of their souls.
Even Bai Qiuying couldn't help but show a deep look of fear, and said in a trembling voice:
"This is… a peerless expert of the Second Rank!"
"How could such an expert still be walking in the world?"
"Could it be… that the Tyrant Fiend King has really come?"
"Why are we completely unaware of this?!"
Not only her, but even Ayina, Cangdu, and others were all stunned and unable to recover for a long time.
Hu Yanxian had already knelt on the ground in fear and trepidation, respectfully saluting the carriage in the sky.
Only Leng You still stubbornly raised her head, staring angrily at the carriage in the sky.
At this moment, a voice finally came from inside the carriage:
"You ask me if I treat you as pawns?"
"Then I will answer you."
"Yes."
"You also ask me if I want all the leaders to die?"
"Then I will also answer you."
"Yes."
This voice, like a resounding bell, echoed throughout the valley, filled with an innate domineering and arrogant aura, as if everything in the world was under its control.
It was unreserved, as if it disdained any hidden concealment or conspiracy, and frankly told everyone all the answers in this way.
It was also like a god high above, overlooking all living beings, looking down at those insignificant mortals on the ground with an extremely indifferent attitude.
Even if the final fate of these "ants" was revealed to them without reservation, these mortals could only wail helplessly and were unable to change it in the slightest.
At this instant, everyone felt as if they were in an ice cellar, and a bone-chilling coldness spread from the bottom of their hearts to their entire bodies.
Among the crowd, the one who felt the strongest, the deepest fear, was none other than Bai Qiuying.
Just now, she had acted as if she was invincible, thinking that she was about to become the master of this land in the Western Desert, and that smugness and arrogance had not yet faded from her face.
But at this moment, she was like a popped balloon, and all her pride instantly dissipated.
She no longer dared to continue floating in the sky, but hurriedly returned to the ground in a panic.
Her pair of old eyes, which had experienced vicissitudes, were now filled with fear, staring fixedly at the carriage in the sky that exuded a mysterious pressure.
She suppressed the surging fear in her heart and said:
"Tyrant Fiend King, since you have graced us with your presence, then there is no doubt that you have won."
"The Western Desert will be yours!"
"Our Great Snow Mountain Sect will leave immediately!"
After saying that, Bai Qiuying waved her hand anxiously, intending to take the disciples of the Great Snow Mountain Sect away in a hurry.
At this point, Bai Qiuying had been completely enveloped by fear, and she didn't dare to stay here for even a second longer, only wanting to escape this terrible place as soon as possible.
Although she was a Third Rank expert, and the Tyrant Fiend King was an even more powerful Second Rank peerless expert, it seemed that there was only a difference of one major realm.
However, Bai Qiuying knew very well in her heart that with her current strength, she had absolutely no chance of winning against the Tyrant Fiend King, and it was simply like an ant trying to stop a chariot.
At this moment, Hu Yanxian's sharp and somewhat fierce voice suddenly sounded:
"Old hag, don't think you can slip away so easily!"
"The King has already said that the three leaders must die here today!"
"Do you think the King is joking with you?"
Previously, Hu Yanxian had also sternly ordered Bai Qiuying not to leave, but Bai Qiuying had not paid attention to him at all and had turned a deaf ear to his words.
But this time, Bai Qiuying stopped as if she had been frozen in place.
She slowly raised her head, looked at the carriage in the sky with awe, and asked in a slightly trembling voice:
"Tyrant Fiend King, does it… have to be this way?"
At this moment, the entire valley seemed to fall into silence, and everyone held their breath, quietly waiting for the response from the person in the carriage.
Not long after.
The short and unquestionable voice came from the carriage again:
"Yes."
