Chapter 464: Shen Tian: You’re Surrounded By Me!
The White Thearch felt conflicted as he looked at Yue Yunde. He was pondering whether he wanted to fight for a chance to escape since he did not want to die either!
Yue Yunde directly ran beside w.a.n.g Shenxu as if he had already guessed the White Thearch’s thoughts.
He shouted, “Ancestor, don’t be afraid!
“We’ll inform the Celestial Dynasty once we escape.
“When the Celestial Dynasty’s reinforcements arrive, it will be Evil Spirits that will need to escape!
“Given your strength, you will definitely be able to stall them for a few hours!”
The White Thearch’s mouth twitched, and he could not help but curse in his mind.
F*ck, all you know is how to con me!
It’s not that easy to last so long!
I am unable to even defeat a h.e.l.l Protector King, not to mention that there are still so many powerful Evil Spirit cultivators.
If I really try to endure, I’ll die in a few minutes!
...
Yue Yunde did not care about what the White Thearch was thinking, as it was more important to save himself first.
He urged, “Old w.a.n.g, let’s hurry and leave. Old Tortoise has powerful defenses, so he will definitely be able to last!”
If they did not leave now, then none of them would be able to escape anymore!
w.a.n.g Shenxu nodded and said, “Then thank you, Senior White Thearch, for blocking the enemy for us!
“Don’t worry. I’ll definitely bring reinforcements to save you!”
w.a.n.g Shenxu turned and left once he finished speaking. He started to activate his mystic arts to teleport them away.
However, an extreme spatial force surged toward them. That power enveloped all of them and covered the whole area.
The crack was also restored at a speed where naked eyes could see and completely disappeared.
w.a.n.g Shenxu was completely dumbstruck as he witnessed that.
The h.e.l.l Protector King had already approached them with a round disc that was radiating divine light and emitting a powerful aura. This was what was releasing the peerless spatial force.
It was the supreme immortal artifact Realm Sealing Plate.
The h.e.l.l Protector King revealed a hideous smile and said, “There’s no need to fight anymore. None of you will be able to escape today!”
He had already used the Realm Sealing Plate to seal this s.p.a.ce again, so none of them could leave.
He then narrowed his eyes and discovered that there was one more person.
However, the h.e.l.l Protector King did not mind as he had been careless and almost let w.a.n.g Shenxu escape.
That person had just nicely appeared and stopped w.a.n.g Shenxu and the others.
Therefore, the h.e.l.l Protector King could chase up to them and completely seal the s.p.a.ce.
Accurately speaking, he had to thank that person!
Then, I should kill him off painlessly and sacrifice him to Lord Sacred Spirit! If he knew, he would definitely be grateful to me!
The h.e.l.l Protector King sneered.
The human that had suddenly appeared was extremely young and was most likely a peer of w.a.n.g Shenxu.
Although the strength of the prodigies of his generation was far higher than the one before, and most of them had broken through to the Tribulation Transcendence stage, it was not to the point where they could threaten him.
Given the h.e.l.l Protector King’s peak Mighty Sage cultivation, it was simple to deal with a few True Sages!
If things went sideways, then there was no need for him to stay alive!
He wouldn’t have the face to reincarnate even if he died!
...
Seeing that the void crack had been closed, w.a.n.g Shenxu’s face turned pale, and his mouth twitched.
“90%! 90% of my lifespan! It’s gone just like that?
“It’s all because of the both of you! Why didn’t you decide earlier?”
w.a.n.g Shenxu’s heart ached so badly he vomited blood. He had spent 90% of his lifespan to open the crack.
In the end, it was all for naught—the two idiots had wasted all the time!
Yue Yunde and the White Thearch also felt awkward. If they had known earlier, they would not have wasted so much time talking nonsense. They would have directly escaped!
Now, no one could leave since w.a.n.g Shenxu could not consume another 90% of his lifespan to open a crack once again.
More importantly, he did not have that much lifespan either. If he continued spending his lifespan, then he would die right there.
...
Yue Yunde wailed. “It’s over. It’s all over. We’re dead now!”
They had basically used up all their last resorts, so how could they go against the Evil Spirit army?
Not to mention there was a peak Mighty Sage; none of them would be able to defeat him!
“Since we can’t escape, then we’ll fight to the death!”
The White Thearch took a deep breath and emitted a bright divine light that shone upon the ground.
He suddenly transformed into a 100,000-feet-long tortoise and roared toward the sky. He emitted an immense aura, which surged throughout the whole area. His large pupils were like the blazing sun as he glared at the Evil Spirit army, facing death without fear.
Even if he died, he would have to injure the Evil Spirit army heavily!
“There’s no other way. Let’s fight!”
w.a.n.g Shenxu sighed. There were no other solutions now either.
Therefore, rather than awaiting their doom, it was better to fight to the death!
Even if they died, they had to die honorably and on the battlefield!
He looked toward Shen Tian with pa.s.sionate eyes as he straightened his back.
“Brother Shen, I’m sorry to have let you get caught in such a hopeless situation!”
If he had not forcibly torn through the void, then Shen Tian would not have appeared here.
Therefore, w.a.n.g Shenxu felt that he had harmed Shen Tian and was sorry.
Shen Tian shook his head, smiled, and said, “Just nice. I haven’t fought for 100+ years, so I’ll use these Evil Spirits to warm up today.”
He stretched his body before turning into a ray of golden light and charged at the Evil Spirit army.
“Brother Shen, you can’t! They have a peak Mighty Sage!”
w.a.n.g Shenxu was so shocked he shouted, but he could not stop Shen Tian at all.
Cold sweat dripped from his forehead as he sighed. “Why is Brother Shen so reckless?”
They were not some normal cultivators but the Evil Spirit army. They had numerous powerful Evil Spirit cultivators and the h.e.l.l Protector King, a Mighty Sage. It was impossible for them to deal with such opponents!
Not to mention them, even a human Mighty Sage would not be able to defeat them and would most likely die here.
Although Shen Tian was powerful, it was impossible for him to go against the h.e.l.l Protector King.
w.a.n.g Shenxu knew just how astonishing Shen Tian’s battle prowess was.
Shen Tian could already kill a Seven Tribulation Great Sage 180 years ago.
However, that was only a Seven Tribulation Great Sage, the weakest amongst Great Sages.
Meanwhile, the h.e.l.l Protector King was an Eleven Tribulation Mighty Sage and had transcended four more Heavenly Tribulations than a Seven Tribulation Great Sage.
Each tribulation of the Sage was like a whole new level, and the difference between an Eleven Tribulation Mighty Sage and Seven Tribulation Great Sage was like heaven and earth.
If they were to really fight, it would be a piece of cake for the h.e.l.l Protector King to kill Great Sage Evil Fire.
...
One had to know that those that were able to reach the Great Sage level were all peerless prodigies.
However, wanting to step into the Mighty Sage level from Great Sage was like the gulf between heaven and earth. It was extremely difficult.
One would require not only talent but also time to ama.s.s experience.
All the Mighty Sages had cultivated for thousands to even up to 10,000 years!
Even if Shen Tian had disappeared and cultivated in seclusion for 180 years, it was impossible for him to surpa.s.s a Mighty Sage!
Seeing how Shen Tian had charged forward without hesitation, w.a.n.g Shenxu was worried.
He gnashed his teeth and said helplessly, “F*ck, at most, we’ll die. I’ll risk it with you Evil Spirit infants!
“Brother Shen, wait for me! I’ll go with you!’
After finishing, w.a.n.g Shenxu circulated his power and followed behind Shen Tian, wanting to fight alongside him.
The White Thearch and Yue Yunde exchanged looks and shouted simultaneously, “Attack!”
They followed behind the two of them and charged forward too!
...
The h.e.l.l Protector King’s face was full of disdain as he scoffed. “Such an impertinent fool, you must have a death wish!”
He ordered, and the Evil Spirit army charged forward toward the four of them.
Their evil aura surged and covered the whole sky.
The fearsome Evil Spirit cultivators appeared from the turbulent evil aura one after the other, emitting a powerful aura.
The Heavenly Venerable Evil Spirits surrounded them completely. They were powerful Evil Spirit cultivators that had been newly guided to the five regions through the sacrificial altar, and each of them was extremely formidable.
There were dozens of Sage Evil Spirits alone, over 10 True Sages, and even seven Great Sages.
Such a force could even easily capture a sacred ground.
Not to mention there was the most frightening h.e.l.l Protector King that led the army.
w.a.n.g Shenxu and the others’ expressions changed as the number of Evil Spirits had long surpa.s.sed their tolerance level.
If all of those Evil Spirits were to attack them, they would be torn into pieces instantly!
However, Shen Tian was calm and composed.
He charged forward and instantly entered the evil aura mist like fish to water.
Over 20 Heavenly Venerable Evil Spirits and 10 Sage Evil Spirits charged toward him. A few True Sages also used the Killing Array against Shen Tian!
They were cruel and tyrannical, their evil auras mighty and terrifying.
It was as if the evil fiends had descended and were slaughtering the mortal world.
The sky was filled with grey fog, and the chilling aura sent shivers down others’ backs.
“Die!”
The True Sage Evil Spirits roared as if they were vengeful ghosts, their ear-piercing voices reverberating throughout the area.
The numerous Evil Spirits all attacked with their fearsome evil aura, forming heretical ghastly hands that grabbed toward Shen Tian.
In that instant, the sky paled in comparison to the shining sun and moon as an endless evil aura swirled throughout the whole s.p.a.ce as if able to tear the void apart.
Even Great Sages would not be able to block such an attack by so many powerful Evil Spirit cultivators with such frightening aura.
...
“I announce that all of you have been surrounded by me!”
Shen Tian smiled as stars shined in his eyes brightly. He formed hand seals, and the power of the stars descended as divine light shone from his body.
Endless starlight gathered in the sky and formed numerous astral swords. Each sword’s aura was so astonishing it was like a supreme divine weapon with crushing force.
“What? Why is this power so terrifying?”
“This strike cannot be blocked! Hurry and escape!”
The various Evil Spirits’ expressions changed—their eyes were filled with fear and terror.
They could sense just how powerful the astral swords in the sky were. They could easily kill them!
They had never expected this human to be able to unleash such fearsome strength.
The Heavenly Venerable Evil Spirits’ bodies had already turned soft from being suppressed by the immense aura and could not retaliate at all.
Even True Sages were also trembling with fear.
Those Evil Spirits wanted to turn and escape immediately, but Shen Tian did not give them the chance to do so. He waved his hand, and countless astral swords shot toward them with indomitable force.
They pierced through s.p.a.ce, creating countless cracks in the void.
The Heavenly Venerable Evil Spirits exploded like firecrackers, their bodies turning into b.l.o.o.d.y mist due to that vast power.
The 10 Sage Evil Spirits also exploded the moment they came in contact with those astral swords. Their bodies had been crushed into mincemeat.
As for the True Sage Evil Spirits, not even they could block a single sword. They were directly sliced into pieces!
In but an instant, numerous powerful Evil Spirit cultivators died. What remained were severed limbs remained, resulting in a ghastly sight.
...
“Such audacity!”
Two Great Sages were enraged and charged toward Shen Tian. They had never expected Spirit Severing to be that powerful, killing so many powerful Evil Spirit cultivators.
The two of them unleashed a bloodthirsty aura as they wanted to kill Shen Tian.
However, Shen Tian just stood in the air without moving, like an invincible G.o.d of War with a heroic bearing.
He lifted his right hand slowly, and starlight shone from his body, attracting the power of stars!
Endless starlight gathered within his hand and emitted a dazzling light.
Shen Tian lifted his right hand toward those two Great Sages.
As he punched, it seemed as if he could shatter the skies and churn the seas!
Shen Tian’s punch was filled with indomitable strength like a shooting star.
In that instant, endless starlight gathered within Shen Tian’s palms. The starlight transformed into an invincible punch with an aura that could conquer mountains and rivers.
Bang!
A deafening collision sound echoed while smoke and dust filled the air!
The whole ground shook like it was about to collapse.
Once the smoke and dust dispersed, there was no one in front of Shen Tian anymore, only a 100,000-feet-deep hole.
The unparalleled punches had wiped out the two Great Sages, and not even their souls could escape the tragic fate of death.
...
Shen Tian remained calm and indifferent as if he had not just killed two Great Sages but only two ants.
He kept on attacking, killing dozens of Evil Spirits with each strike.
Shen Tian’s fearsome punches could directly crush the Evil Spirits into pieces whenever they landed.
There was also endless starlight that descended from the sky, forming countless astral swords. Those swords pierced through the Sage Evil Spirits with crushing force, reaping their souls effortlessly.
The Evil Spirit army decreased in numbers at speed visible to the naked eyes.
...
w.a.n.g Shenxu and others were slack-jawed. Their eyes were filled with shock and disbelief.
w.a.n.g Shenxu widened his eyes out of astonishment and could not help but gulp down his saliva.
“F*ck, Brother Shen is just too powerful!
“I never expected that Brother Shen would become this powerful in the 180 years that he disappeared, killing a Great Sage so easily.
“With Brother Shen around, what is there to be afraid of?”
He had never expected that Shen Tian’s battle prowess would be this fearsome—he could block the Evil Spirit army alone!
Yue Yunde and the White Thearch were also overjoyed.
Shen Tian had killed the Evil Spirits before they could even make a move.
They might be able to survive.
No, they would definitely be able to stay alive!!!
...
The h.e.l.l Protector King on the other hand was filled with terror as he felt a chill run down his spine.
This kid is too frightening! Not only is he powerful, but he has large-scale attacks!
Even the h.e.l.l Protector King was unable to kill so many powerful Evil Spirit cultivators at the same time.
He’ll definitely be a great problem! I need to kill him!
These were all elite Evil Spirits, so if they were completely wiped out, he would not be able to bear the responsibility!
“Kid, go and die!”
The h.e.l.l Protector King could not bear to continue watching, so he charged with a roar!
Pitch-black demonic flames started enveloping his whole body, revealing an appalling scene.
Those demonic flames were filled with the power of evil aura and could burn Sage cultivators into ash!
The h.e.l.l Protector King’s violent aura surged toward Shen Tian like turbulent waves. His pupils had turned crimson red like the b.l.o.o.d.y sun. It was a soul-stirring sight. If one were to gaze into his eyes, their souls would be corrupted, and they would become crazy bloodthirsty demons!
The h.e.l.l Protector King, a peak Eleven Tribulation Mighty Sage, had finally made a move!
He stood in mid-air with an immense and turbulent aura that caused endless laws to become chaotic.
A frightening scene appeared in the air. It was as if there were endless evil souls and vengeful ghosts screaming.
It was as if those pitch-black flames could burn through everything!
...
w.a.n.g Shenxu and the others were astounded, and fear filled their eyes.
That power was just too frightening, and they could not help but tremble.
The h.e.l.l Protector King was definitely one of the top mighty cultivators and could easily kill a Great Sage!
They wondered if Shen Tian could defeat the h.e.l.l Protector King.
In that instant, w.a.n.g Shenxu and the others could not help but worry.
The cruel and tyrannical h.e.l.l Protector King said in a sinister tone, “Kid, you dare to spoil the plans of our Evil Spirit Sect! I originally wanted to pull out your soul and light the sky lanterns to welcome Lord Sacred Spirit—”
Shen Tian snorted. “Too noisy.”
He flew into the air and charged toward the h.e.l.l Protector King.
Just nice. I’ll test just how powerful I am now.
An Eleven Tribulation Mighty Sage?
Hehe, I wonder how many punches he can take~
Shen Tian’s body was like a sword, and he left behind a trail of golden light. He pierced through the endless void and charged toward the h.e.l.l Protector King!
Shen Tian lifted his fist and activated the Heavenly Divine Fist!
The endless starlight surged and enveloped Shen Tian, emitting dazzling light!
His aura instantly reached an appalling degree, as if he could crush mountains and rivers and destroy the stars!
“Courting death!”
The h.e.l.l Protector King revealed a hideous smile and faced Shen Tian head-on as he punched his fist too.
As an Eleven Tribulation Mighty Sage, the h.e.l.l Protector King had cultivated the Evil Spirit Sect’s mystic arts, so the strength of his physical body was outstanding.
In terms of physical body strength, he could even be compared to a Sub-Immortal.
Since Shen Tian actually dared to compete with him in terms of physical strength, he must have a death wish!
The h.e.l.l Protector King’s fists were enveloped in pitch-black demonic flames and emitted a fearsome aura. He could pierce through the void with just a random swing of his hand.
In that instant, it was as if the world was about to collapse. The wailings of ghosts and moans of demons could be heard. There were even lightning flashes and thunder rumbling with the pouring b.l.o.o.d.y rain, sending shivers down one’s back.
The h.e.l.l Protector King attacked! He was like an evil fiend that had descended to overturn this land!
Shen Tian was not afraid at all. Shen Tian’s fists released an eye-blinding light. It was like shooting stars from the universe.
Boom!
The two of them collided, and their formidable auras tore through the sky, creating countless cracks and holes.
The fabrics of s.p.a.ce collapsed and turned into nothingness!
Endless divine energy surged in all directions, winding up endless gusts of winds that swept through the ground!
Everyone was dumbfounded. They concentrated on the battle to see just who was the winner of this exchange.
...
Crack!
A bone-breaking sound echoed!
The h.e.l.l Protector King was knocked backward like a cannonball, retreating by hundreds of thousands of feet.
“How is it possible!?”
h.e.l.l Protector King was horrified. His forehead was filled with cold sweat as if he was enduring some pain that was beyond words.
The h.e.l.l Protector King’s right arm was... gone!? There was nothing there anymore!
The h.e.l.l Protector King was proud of his physical body, yet his right arm had turned into mincemeat during the head-on clash with Shen Tian.
If the h.e.l.l Protector King had not retreated in time, he might have died from that punch!
His whole body trembled vigorously as his eyes were filled with terror and fear.
The h.e.l.l Protector King had never expected Shen Tian’s physical body and strength to be this formidable. He felt as if he had collided with a meteorite when battling with Shen Tian, and he could not block the attacks at all!
On the contrary, Shen Tian, who had starlight surrounding him, was unscathed!
Ever since he had broken through to the Mighty Prowess realm, the strength of his physical body had increased exponentially.
Coupled with his const.i.tution, the Chaotic Golden Body, Shen Tian’s physical body had already far surpa.s.sed that of a Sub-Immortal.
He was like a human-like ape that could destroy the world with his fists!
...
w.a.n.g Shenxu and the others’ jaws dropped once they witnessed that scene!
If it could be said that they were already extremely astonished by Shen Tian easily killing Great Sage Evil Spirit, then the three of them were now dumbstruck when they saw what happened.
There were quite a few prodigies that could be on par with Great Sages, such as Qi Shaoxuan. w.a.n.g Shenxu, Yue Yunde, and others could all fight against a Great Sage.
However, fighting against and killing were two completely different concepts.
If w.a.n.g Shenxu wanted to kill a Great Sage, then he would need to pay a heavy price.
Of course, there were prodigies that could kill a Great Sage, such as Shi Tianzi.
However, they definitely would not be able to do it as easily as Shen Tian with just a snap of his finger!
Not to mention overwhelming a Mighty Sage, none of the prodigies in his generation could do that.
Currently, not only could Shen Tian suppress a peak Eleven Tribulation Mighty Sage, but he could even injure said Might Sage heavily.
Such a level of battle prowess was just too terrifying!
Amazing!
...
w.a.n.g Shenxu and Yue Yunde looked at each other and saw the astonishment in their eyes.
They could not help but exclaim, “As expected of the Son of Providence! Shen Tian is just too powerful!”
