Chapter 522: Chapter 523: Devouring People Without Leaving Any Remains

Wild Wave Sect, the Sect Master of Wild Wave Sect fled in disarray, his back trailed by numerous streams of light, all of which were clearly warriors.

At that moment, a warrior suddenly appeared in front of him, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, extraordinarily valiant and tall, wielding a large halberd and fiercely smashing it towards the Sect Master of Wild Wave Sect.

Already heavily injured, the Sect Master of Wild Wave Sect could not withstand this swift strike and hastily retreated to dodge.

But at this time, the warriors who were pursuing him had already caught up, surrounding him completely.

“Good job, Hong Weiyang,” Ye Zihan, carrying a tri-bladed halberd, rushed to Hong Weiyang’s side who had intercepted the Sect Master of Wild Wave Sect, smiling as he spoke.

Hong Weiyang looked disdainfully at the Sect Master of Wild Wave Sect, “Run, now I really want to see how you’ll run.”

Ye Zihan, with the tri-bladed halberd on his shoulder, also moved to open up space next to him, forming a unique formation with his colleagues, trapping the Sect Master of Wild Wave Sect.

The Sect Master of Wild Wave Sect couldn’t understand. These seventy-two warriors were merely of the High-level Awakening Realm, the Sixth Level of strength.

And yet he, a Heroic Level practitioner at the Eighth Level of the Awakening Realm, was completely overpowered without any chance to fight back against the combined force of seventy-two warriors.

The sensation these seventy-two warriors gave him was as if they were a single entity; even when they spread out, dealing with any one of them felt like dealing with them all.

Their extraordinary cooperation was as if they could read each other’s minds.

Joining forces in such a Cultivation Realm, they were able to corner him completely, leaving him no way out. No matter what, the Sect Master of Wild Wave Sect couldn’t fathom how these seventy-two persons managed to achieve this.

“Hey, he looks rather unconvinced and perplexed,” Ye Zihan remarked with a chuckle upon seeing the Sect Master of Wild Wave Sect’s expression.

“Perhaps, he is wondering how he, with Heroic Level strength, cannot overpower us,” Hong Weiyang sneered upon seeing the expression on the Sect Master of the Wild Wave Sect’s face, “Of course, the specific reason, even if he racks his brains, he won’t be able to figure it out.”

“Let’s finish him off. After he is gone, the Wild Wave Sect will truly collapse. After all, this sect was a decent opponent in the Southern Domain,” Ye Zihan said, his Huaxia Soul Power already condensing on the surface, gazing intently at the Sect Master of Wild Wave Sect.

At the same time, Hong Weiyang and the other warriors, their Huaxia attribute Soul Powers also condensed, their aura merging into a single, inseparable force.

“It’s that sensation again!” The Sect Master of Wild Wave Sect, looking around at the seventy-two warriors, saw the same bright yellow color of Soul Power emerging, and he could discern the faint ferocious aura on them, forming hideous faces, intent on tearing apart his spirit.

It was this malicious aura that left him unsteady in Heart Realm and disordered in breath after clashing with these seventy-two men.

Moreover, each time they clashed, their strength was in no way weaker than his.

“Argh!” A roar burst from the throat of the Sect Master of Wild Wave Sect, an angry howl echoing far away.

Seven days later, the Wild Wave Sect completely collapsed, with the corpse of the Sect Master hanging before the gates of the Wild Wave Sect’s mountain.

At Guiyuan Valley, the Valley Master of Guiyuan Valley knelt disheveled at the mouth of the valley, staring blankly around.

In the distance, terrifying Soul Power attacks surged from the edge of the sky as if a river of Soul Power was coming from the horizon.

Even though Guiyuan Valley had gathered the Jade Return Formation, in an instant, it was overwhelmed by this terrifying flood of Soul Power, utterly shattered.

The destructive onslaught of the soul cannon attack was simply not something that this incomplete version of Jade Return Formation could reflect, not even the completed Jade Return Formation of the Boundary Country of Emperor Yuheng could rebound such a Soul Power attack.

“`

Thunderous explosions constantly erupted from all around, cries and anguished howls ceasinglessly assailed the ears of the Valley Master of Guiyuan Valley.

Seven days earlier, that terrifying soul power attack had begun to bombard Guiyuan Valley from all directions, the dominating soul power onslaught breaking like waves against the shore, reducing the mountains surrounding Guiyuan Valley to rubble.

Guiyuan Valley was the heartland of Guiyuan Valley, the main valley, encircled by nine inner valleys and eighteen outer valleys.

As a top power in the Southern Domain, their strength was formidable, and the power of their heartland was naturally overwhelming.

But, when the Array that protected them started to fall into disarray, it marked the beginning of all their nightmares.

They were horrified to discover, at some unknown time, on the peaks of distant mountains, a massive metal structure had been erected, its cube-shaped barrels aimed at Guiyuan Valley, with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth gradually converging into that colossal building.

As soul power burst forth from those cannon muzzles, they faced utter despair.

Atop the thirty mountains encircling the heartland of Guiyuan Valley, the lower C-Class destructive impact soul cannons of the Huaxia Empire had been installed. The oppressive attacks brought Guiyuan Valley, still unaware of the enemy’s situation, to a bitter end on the spot.

Twenty Sky Soaring Battleships hovered around Guiyuan Valley, guarding all areas; any enemies attempting to flee in their direction were bombarded into shreds by the onboard photonic soul cannons.

The Imperial Army surrounded them from all sides, and any escapees from Guiyuan Valley only became spirits under their hands.

Amidst the dense Spirit Wood forests on the ground, whether it was the Silver Moon Giant Wolves or the Night Shadows lurking in the darkness, they silently claimed the lives of Guiyuan Valley disciples attempting to flee.

The Valley Master of Guiyuan Valley wanted to break out, to destroy that monstrous structure atop the distant mountain.

However, no less than three destructive impact soul cannons had their aim on him, and after gathering soul power, their attacks bore down on him.

The photonic soul cannons on the Sky Soaring Battleships did the same; any unwelcome targets were always the strongest from Guiyuan Valley.

The geography of Guiyuan Valley, high on the sides and low in the middle, was just too perfect for soul cannon fire suppression. On the edges of the Sky Soaring Battleships stood only Qiang Yu and Qingyu, searching for their prey and shooting them down.

Guiyuan Valley was finished. The Valley Master of Guiyuan Valley, his soul power nearly exhausted, fell to the ground.

At this moment, he regretted it immensely—why had he provoked the Huaxia Empire?

Not only did the Valley Master of Guiyuan Valley regret it, everyone from the powers of the Southern Domain deeply lamented their greed in sending people to the Huaxia Empire.

Those who initially provoked Lin Qian were now being torn apart and devoured alive by their own factions. And the question they were most asked before their deaths was why they provoked Lin Qian!

Why provoke him, telling him to make an enemy of the entire Southern Domain if he dared!

Well, now the Sect Master of Wild Wave Sect had his corpse hung at the front of the sect gates, and the Guiyuan Valley’s sprawling valley had been blasted into a plain!

The Boundary Country of Emperor Yuheng had now been conquered by the Huaxia Empire in as many as fifty states.

In order to survive, many small powers’ leaders were terrified, dissolving their own forces, and handing over their territories to the Huaxia Empire with both hands, swearing oaths on their inner demons never to betray the Huaxia Empire in their lifetimes.

Bang!

Inside the Imperial Palace of Emperor Yuheng’s Boundary Country, Emperor Yuheng furiously smashed everything smashable in front of him, turned around and pointed at the other party, “I listened to you and tested him, and what was the result? You’ve doomed my nation! He’s not the lucky bastard you spoke of, he’s a ruthless predator!”
