Chapter 131: Chapter 104 Attack!

"Wu Xiaode, you are going to Hell."

The voice of the church leader paused for a moment, then continued, "Everything today will be presented directly to the world, and the glory of the Holy Sect will make all sinners tremble."

"Remember, all your efforts have been in vain."

Beep—beep—

The phone call was disconnected.

In an instant, an extremely ominous shadow loomed over Wu Xiaode’s heart.

He placed his hand on the Dream Blowing Blade.

The Holy Sect was extremely crazed, not only offering up lives but also killing anything that threatened them.

There was no escaping it.

Now it depended on what kind of means they had prepared!

One breath.

Two breaths.

Suddenly, the ground shook slightly.

Wu Xiaode reacted in an instant.

They actually dared to do this.

A bunch of lunatics—

He stood up sharply and yelled,

"Xia Ni, take Sister Lan and go, immediately!"

Xia Ni stood up quickly and said, "There is something huge deep within the earth rapidly approaching the surface, it can envelop the entire hospital."

"Hurry up!" Wu Xiaode roared.

Xia Ni immediately rushed into the intensive care ward, scooped up Xia Huilan who was at work, and flew out of the window.

"Hey, Xia Ni—"

Xia Huilan only had time to speak half a sentence before she was suddenly flying out of the hospital.

Boom!!!

A loud noise.

The entire hospital began to crumble.

Countless long, vertical-pupiled hands emerged from the ground, grabbing living people and tearing them into pieces with force.

Stairway to Heaven!

It was this terrifying thing.

The location of the Royal Hospital was in a quite bustling area.

From this moment on, not only were all the people here going to die, but the stability that the empire had been striving to maintain would be completely gone.

Three or five black long hands flew out and reached for Xia Ni, who had not flown far away.

A flash of saber light.

Those long hands were immediately severed.

Wu Xiaode stood on a Demon Hand mid-air and roared, "Disperse!"

An endless Demon Mist spread from his body, completely enveloping the entire hospital.

Outside the Demon Mist, no one could see what was happening inside.

The voice of the Emperor came through the phone, "Little Wu, what’s the situation?"

"Stairway to Heaven, Your Majesty! They put a Stairway to Heaven beneath the hospital!" Wu Xiaode gritted his teeth and said.

Screams rang in his ears.

Those were ordinary people being torn apart by the Stairway to Heaven.

"These sons of bitches!"

The Emperor swore and hung up the phone hastily.

Wu Xiaode kicked off the Demon Hand forcefully, evading the pursuit of the Stairway to Heaven, and suddenly vanished into the Demon Mist.

Those long hands immediately lost their target.

Just as they were about to grab other people, sharp golden threads flew out of the mist, severing them all.

Wu Xiaode lightly jumped and landed on another Demon Hand, slashing out another dazzling golden thread of saber light.

Whoosh—

Several more long hands were severed.

Two Demon Hands kept flashing in the Void, conveniently appearing under Wu Xiaode’s feet, helping him dodge and weave through the throngs of long hands.

Wu Xiaode felt his heart fill with rage.

These lunatics, ready to massacre at the drop of a hat.

For the sake of assassinating Xia Huilan, they were even willing to kill everyone in the hospital!

Wu Xiaode kept swinging his saber.

No matter how many hands surged towards him, he didn’t avoid them and slashed with all his might!

But this made it impossible for him to dodge those vertical-pupiled long hands, and he began to fall towards the dense mass of long hands below.

Two dirty magic hands, however, emerged from the Void and caught him from behind, flinging him upwards with force.

No sooner had Wu Xiaode flown to mid-air than the pair of Demon Hands appeared again, grabbing him and throwing him in another direction.

With the help of the Demon Hand and the cover of the Silent Demon Mist, Wu Xiaode managed to hold off the Stairway to Heaven for a while.

Suddenly a woman’s voice came from the sky,

"Supreme Demon Suppression, suppress!"

Wu Xiaode looked up to see Zhao Zhibing wearing a snow-white mask, appearing mid-air with the rank of battalion commander.

She stood on a white crane, having just thrown out dozens of talismans.

Those talismans fluttered in the air and suddenly all ignited, transforming into a Golden Armored God.

Fierce light penetrated from the Divine being’s body, shooting into the mist and hitting the erratic long hands everywhere.

Sizzles—

Like being scalded with boiling water, the long hands retreated hastily.

"Little Wu, escape quickly!"

Zhao Zhibing couldn’t see Wu Xiaode and could only shout loudly.

The dirty magic hand lifted Wu Xiaode and sent him straight to mid-air.

"Can you suppress the Stairway to Heaven?" he asked.

"This Stairway to Heaven is stronger than any before—and it’s absorbing all the people being killed; I’m afraid I can’t suppress it." The battalion commander looked down worriedly.

The hospital had already turned to ruins.

Everyone was dead.

Even with the Demon Mist as cover, how could such a massive death toll be hidden from the world?

There was no going back.

Nothing could be undone now.

Wu Xiaode bit his cheek and said in a deep voice, "Battalion commander, I remember you have a type of talisman that can increase Soul Power."

"Your Soul Power is exhausted? That’s dangerous!"

Zhao Zhibing called out in a light voice.

She pulled out a talisman and threw it toward Wu Xiaode.

— "Supreme resonance, grace of the Heavenly Official!"

Halfway through its flight, the talisman was consumed by flames.

Wu Xiaode instantly felt his body brimming with an invisible power.

The Book of the Dead opened, revealing two lines of ice crystal small characters:

"You have received an excess supply of Soul Power."

"Current Soul Power: 31/19."

— This was exactly the talismanic magic Zhao Zhibing used last time to replenish Wu Xiaode’s Soul Power!

"Is it done? We must leave now, immediately. It will only calm down slowly, falling into silence, when it cannot find new people to consume," Zhao Zhibing said.

"Is there no other way?" Wu Xiaode asked.

— Only he could see through the fog, perceive those densely packed long arms, and all the corpses of the people who had died.

"To die and be sacrificed to monsters, then becoming part of their power to kill again... Such a fate for humans is truly tragic," Zhao Zhibing said somberly.

"Indeed."

Wu Xiaode responded, placing his hand on the hilt of the Dream Blowing Blade, his Soul Power surging through his body.

"Little Wu, we must retreat now," Zhao Zhibing whispered.

Wu Xiaode was silent for a moment, looking down at the blood-stained ruins, and said softly:

"There is something unfinished."

As soon as these words were spoken.

Rows of ice crystal small characters suddenly appeared on the Book of the Dead:

"You have expended enough Soul Power to activate the second form of ’Snow-themed Sword Technique’: ’Worldly Concerns Burden Snow-crowned Souls’"

"Remaining Soul Power: 1/19."

"This is a rather powerful saber technique."

"Once you have successfully performed this move, your understanding of saber skills will ascend to a higher level."

All the characters vanished in a flash.

Clang!

The saber unsheathed, emitting a long cry like a roaming dragon.

The Dream Blowing Blade burst with dense, snow-colored saber light, soaring to the skies, filling the heavens and the Void, as if it were a heavy snowfall.

The wind started.

The solid saber aura transformed into a raging wind, stirring all the snow-colored elements of the world, like a giant tornado, enveloping the collapsed ruins within it.

Wu Xiaode murmured quietly:

"While you lie buried beneath the spring, I walk the mortal realm, my head crowned with snow."

The saber fell.

The endless snow-colored saber light descended upon the earth, crazily swept into the ruins, drilling down like a fierce auger.

A thunderous roar erupted all around.

The endless snow-colored saber light continued downward, further down, and yet further—Slash!!!

The earth trembled ceaselessly.

A ghastly and resentful howl rose from deep within the earth.

Dark blood gushed forth like a spring from the cracks of the ruins, staining the surroundings.

Yet, the saber technique was far from over.

Within the hurricane, the saber light spun and danced like swirling snowflakes.

The entirety of the hospital’s ruins was cut and sliced into dust a thousand times over, scattering in the wild wind.

A bottomless pit was left in the earth.

The Book of the Dead silently opened:

"You have slain a Sky Ladder."

"This Sky Ladder has sacrificed countless innocent souls, its sins reaching the heavens."

"You have ended all of its deeds."

"For such an act, you shall be rewarded with Merit."

"Your Merit has increased."

"After settlement, your current Merit is:"

"2."

At that moment, Wu Xiaode was in no mood to pay attention to these matters, standing above the Demon Hand he said:

"We can’t turn back anymore, can we?"

"Let’s wait for Li Kunlun to take a look," Zhao Zhibing answered.

In the sky, a lone black umbrella floated from afar.

Xiao Baihong held the umbrella in one hand and carried Li Kunlun in the other as they flew over.

Li Kunlun glanced downward only once before shaking his head and saying:

"No matter what requests you make or whatever I craft, nothing can bring back so many lives."

Wu Xiaode was somewhat prepared, but he could not help sighing after hearing this.

"What did His Majesty say?" he asked.

"He was preparing to declare war on the Holy Sect," Li Kunlun replied.

"Are we really going to fight?" Zhao Zhibing asked.

"I dissuaded him," Li Kunlun added.

"Why?" Wu Xiaode inquired.

"The Holy Sect is said to be about to announce some major news, I advised him to wait for the news before making a decision—eradicating a sect is a serious matter, one must proceed with caution," Li Kunlun said.

At that moment, everyone’s mobile phones started ringing.

Wu Xiaode took out his phone to look.

A row of bold black headline caught his eyes:

"22:58, Breaking News:"

"The sixteen countries of the North have formed a combined government, uniting their territories under the name ’Holy Redemption’, with the nation established today."

— "The Holy Country has proclaimed ’Religion of the Divine Spirit of the Holy Sect for the Salvation of All Beings and Their Eternal Happiness in Paradise’ as the state religion, abiding by its doctrine and governing the Holy Country according to the will of the Divine Spirit."

Wu Xiaode was stunned.

Zhao Zhibing remained silent.

The Holy Sect had actually unified the sixteen countries of the North, establishing a massive religious state!

Who could have imagined such an event occurring in the world?

Truly a witness to history!

Li Kunlun asked, "Are there any other powers in this world?"

"To the west is a large federal state, then there’s our Fu Xi Empire," Zhao Zhibing answered calmly.

Li Kunlun shook his head and sighed:

"With the addition of this Holy Country, this is a three-way stand-off... this won’t be easy to handle."
