Mad God Evolution
Chapter 822 - 822 780

822: Chapter 780 822: Chapter 780 The Black Tortoise’s body was indeed several times stronger than Lv Zhong’s, but if it were to be touched by the “Divine-devouring Immortal-drowning Water,” it would probably not die but certainly shed a layer of skin.

Moreover, the “Divine-devouring Immortal-drowning Water” attacking this time was not in trickles but was as vast and mighty as the Milky Way pouring down from the sky.

If it were in any other environment, the Black Tortoise could have easily dodged the attacks of the “Divine-devouring Immortal-drowning Water.”

But in the Hongmeng Dragon Tomb, there was immense suppression against beings from both the Immortal World and the Mortal Realm, and the suppression against it was no weaker.

Its colossal body, which was a true dominant force outside, became a burden here.

“Bastard, how dare you ambush me—”

Shocked out of its wits, the Black Tortoise cursed loudly as its legs scraped fiercely against the ground, its massive body rushing close to the ground toward the front.

It was like a giant aircraft carrier sliding at high speed on the ground.

“Sizzle…”

“Pop, pop…”

…

A vast amount of “Divine-devouring Immortal-drowning Water” splashed onto the Black Tortoise’s vast turtle shell.

Its once-prized solid carapace, like being burned by highly concentrated sulfuric acid, emitted strange sounds and even a large amount of foul odor along with billowing white smoke rose into the atmosphere.

“Aoow…”

The giant Black Tortoise let out a sorrowful howl as terrifying water corrosion created numerous blood holes in its shell, with vast amounts of fresh blood spurting from the holes like fountains, simultaneously beautiful and shocking.

Grim!

Truly too grim to behold!

It could be said that the Black Tortoise from the Underworld, its entire shell, was almost corroded into a giant sieve by the “Divine-devouring Immortal-drowning Water.”

Fortunately, at the very last moment, it managed to rush out of the rain curtain area created by the “Divine-devouring Immortal-drowning Water.”

But that day was certainly an extremely unlucky day for the Black Tortoise.

The moment it broke free from the attack zone of the “Divine-devouring Immortal-drowning Water,” the “Blood-transforming Divine Blade” Lv Zhong had summoned was already coming down with an unrivaled might, striking in the blink of an eye.

“Puff…”

Like cutting through tofu, the Blood-transforming Divine Blade plunged directly into one of the blood holes on the Black Tortoise’s shell, wreaking havoc and thrashing wildly inside its body…

Under normal circumstances, the Underworld giant turtle, which could have easily crushed both Lv Zhong and Mu Cangqiong, was now falling to Lv Zhong’s moderate counterattacks.

This scene left not only Mu Cangqiong dumbfounded but even Lv Zhong slightly stunned.

After a while, Mu Cangqiong snapped out of her daze, her beautiful eyes widening as she instinctively exclaimed, “Abnormal!”

Lv Zhong rolled his eyes speechlessly, not bothering to pay attention to Mu Cangqiong, and flashed down from high above, reclaiming the “Divine-devouring Immortal-drowning Water” and Blood Metamorphic Divine Knife from the ground.

As for the corpse of the Black Tortoise, since it was too heavily corroded to be of much use, Lv Zhong didn’t bother to collect it.

After tidying up everything, Lv Zhong turned to Mu Cangqiong, who had come to his side, and smiled faintly, “There appears to be a shadow of a giant mountain range ahead, so we should be nearing the edge of the swamp soon.

Let’s go, shall we…”

“Then let’s make it quick; I really don’t want to stay a moment longer in this godforsaken place…”

…

******************

A gigantic mountain range spanning millions of kilometers stood towering between heaven and earth.

This mountain range, with countless peaks piercing into the clouds, had most of its elevations at least a hundred thousand meters high.

Earth’s highest peak seemed minuscule compared to these, akin to a sprouting grass beside a towering tree, incomparably smaller.

However, although the peaks here are high, it is strangely devoid of snowy mountaintops.

After all, the air in this space is extremely thin, and there are no natural phenomena such as the change of seasons or the alternation of day and night.

Some areas are even almost like a vacuum.

For this reason, almost no ordinary life forms can survive in this space.

At this moment, on one of these towering peaks, there was an incredibly vast open-air platform, and shockingly, quite a number of people were fighting there.

Many people entered the Hongmeng Dragon Tomb this time, just from the Cultivation World, the Sector of Magical Techniques, and the Black Demon World, there were nearly two thousand of them.

Aside from the extremely lucky few in the Mahayana and Tribulation stages, almost all of them were powerful beings above the Independent Immortal level.

The people who entered the Hongmeng Dragon Tomb were mostly randomly teleported to different locations.

And in this mountain range, no less than a hundred people were transported over.

Compared to the ever-present dangers of the marshes, this mountain range was much safer.

At this moment, the mountaintop was crowded with people, a sea of heads surrounding a few in the center.

Nearly a hundred Independent Immortal-level masters were gathered together, creating an immense aura that made the few in the middle feel as though they were facing a towering tidal wave.

If Lv Zhong were here, he would instantly recognize two of the people surrounded in the center.

One of them wore a dark-green Taoist robe, had a resolute face, and two strands of white eyebrows that astonishingly hung down to his beard.

He was none other than the founder of the Shushan Sword Sect, the renowned Elder Changmei.

Although he was only at the peak of 3rd Tribulation Independent Immortal, his strength as a Sword Cultivator was extremely formidable, making him a famous figure in the Cultivation World.

Another was a supremely beautiful woman clad in a white palace dress, with the faint mark of a crescent on her forehead.

When still, she was like a delicate flower reflecting in the water, and in motion, like a fairy riding the wind, her outstanding beauty making her stand out among the five hundred people like a crane amongst chickens, drawing everyone’s gaze.

She was naturally the Palace Master of the Moon Invitation Palace—Inviting Moon.

Both were Independent Immortal-level powerhouses, immensely revered in the Cultivation World, and their sects were extremely powerful as well.

But at this moment, they were surrounded by hundreds of people, looking exceedingly ragged.

Elder Changmei’s body bore several wounds from which fresh blood continuously seeped, staining his Immortal Artifact-level Taoist robe; Inviting Moon’s long dress had several slashes, her hair was a mess, a touch of pallor on her beautiful face, and blood at the corner of her mouth.

It seemed most of her energy was also spent.

Additionally, two women supported Elder Changmei and Inviting Moon.

“Elder Changmei, Inviting Moon, if you know what’s good for you, hand over the corpses of the Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise—the Four Divine Beasts—as well as their Innate Spiritual Treasures.

Otherwise, today will only end with your falling and your paths extinguishing…”

In front of the four, a handsome man calmly issued their final ultimatum, as though he was certain of their defeat.

Before Elder Changmei could speak, one of the women supporting him, with a valiant bearing, had a mist pass across her eyes as she softly said, “Master…

Grandmaster, why don’t we give them the Four-phase Pearl?

Yingqiong doesn’t want to cause Grandmaster such a sacrifice because of herself…”

The other woman supporting Inviting Moon also spoke up, “Grandmaster, even without the Four-phase Pearl, the four sisters, Second Ying and Second Yun, are confident we can achieve something…”

“Nonsense…

Nonsense!” Elder Changmei glared at Li Yingqiong and Zhou Qingyun with hatred, saying, “When the elder speaks, the juniors shouldn’t interrupt…”

After speaking, he no longer concerned himself with his juniors and turned his icy gaze back to the man opposite them.

“Want…

Want my life, want the…

the Four-phase Pearl…

No way…” Elder Changmei clenched his teeth with determination, “Evil King, if you…

you have the guts then…

then come and take it, just…

just don’t blame this old Taoist if I…

I explode myself…”

The physical bodies of Sword Cultivators are extremely strong, and the Sword Embryo within them possesses an unstoppable offensive force.

As a peak 3rd Tribulation Independent Immortal about to explode, he could severely wound even a 6th Tribulation Independent Immortal or Independent Demon.

The Evil King standing before him, though strong, was only a mid-stage 5th Tribulation Independent Demon.

If Elder Changmei truly exploded himself, it was doubtful he could get away with it.

“Haha, not bad.

I won’t explode myself, but I can make my Magical Treasure explode.

It holds the corpses of the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise.

Hehe, just not sure if the exploding of my Moon Invitation Palace’s treasured artifact would destroy the corpses of the Four Divine Beasts…” Laughing loudly, Palace Master Inviting Moon, supported by Zhou Qingyun, rose to her challenge.

What?

The person known as the Evil King turned dark upon hearing what Elder Changmei and Palace Master Inviting Moon said.

Elder Changmei’s explosion posed a great threat; nearly half of the people present might perish.

And he also knew of the treasured artifact of the Moon Invitation Palace mentioned by its palace master—it was a peak 6th grade Immortal Artifact.

While the corpses of the Four Divine Beasts were incredibly mighty in life, they had long perished.

The self-destruction of a peak 6th grade Immortal Artifact might indeed wreck their remains.

If pushed to desperation, they might end up with nothing and even risk severe injury from the blast.

At that point, others might take advantage of the opportunity!

But would these two truly self-destruct?

Elder Changmei was accompanied by two apprentices, and if the Moon Invitation Palace’s treasured Immortal Artifact were destroyed, their exceptional female disciples with unparalleled talents might become the cultivation furnaces for countless coveting parties.

The Evil King wore a set of archaic black battle armor, his purple hair flowing down his shoulders, eyes sharp like an eagle’s, filled with killing intent and a mocking smile on his lips.

He exuded a fierce and powerful presence.

This time, instead of retreating, the Evil King stepped forward, “Hehe, explode?

Then go ahead, let’s see if you can bear to do it.”

“Fine!

You’re forcing me—”

Elder Changmei bellowed with rage, his unruly hair flying about, like a wounded lion.

His hands moved together, forming a complex hand sign as a myriad of lights gathered instantaneously, countless tangible sword lights converging upon his body, appearing truly ready to gather the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy to self-destruct.

What?

A surge went through the Evil King’s heart, and he instinctively wanted to retreat swiftly.

But his gaze fell upon the two women behind Elder Changmei, Li Yingqiong and Zhou Qingyun, and he forcefully held his ground.

He was certain Elder Changmei was putting on an act.

In his eyes, even if Elder Changmei wanted to self-destruct, he would definitely not harm his own apprentices, let alone with Palace Master Inviting Moon there.

If both of them self-destructed and died, then the Shushan and Moon Invitation, two major sects of the Cultivation World, would certainly decline or even face annihilation without their presence.

With this thought, the Evil King laughed instead and challenged, “Elder Changmei, if you’re going to explode, then do it quickly.

Haha, it’s rare to be so close to you like this…”
