"Kill!"
The experts of the Tianxie Sect roared in fury, their eyes bloodshot, filled with a strange aura. In that moment, it was as if they were being dominated by a strange force. At this moment, they felt no fear, only a violent desire to kill.
"This must be the power of faith being activated. That red-haired man is definitely not a normal person." Long Chen thought to himself.
The sect leader of the Tianxie Sect had to be careful when speaking to that red-haired man. Clearly, this man's status was extremely special.
Although he didn't hear what they said, judging by their expressions, it was probably that red-haired man leading the Tianxie Sect army to attack the opposing forces.
The Tianxie Sect leader was relatively more cautious, because there was still a potential threat like Long Chen within the sect's territory. It wasn't appropriate to act at this time.
The red-haired man seemed to have acted first and reported later, directly gathering the Tianxie Sect's entire army. The Tianxie Sect leader wanted to make a final persuasion, but the red-haired man insisted on going out to fight, leaving him helpless.
The red-haired man's aura was astonishing, and it was as if a terrifying beast was hidden within him, putting immense pressure on Long Chen.
The entire Tianxie Sect was filled with countless powerful fighters, but the only ones who could pose a deadly threat to Long Chen were the sect leader and this red-haired man.
Seeing the Tianxie Sect's army launching their attack, Long Chen wanted to blend in. But these powerful cultivators were all covered in the aura of faith. If Long Chen went in, he would be like a lice on a bald head, instantly exposed.
"Rumble..."
As the Tianxie Sect army advanced, the color of the desert ahead quickly changed to a sea of red, and the stench of blood filled the air.
Clearly, the Tianxie Sect had long harbored grudges against the opposing forces, having fought countless wars. This was their battlefield.
Long Chen followed behind, controlling his aura to the extreme. He was here to watch the spectacle; if he got exposed, it would be a disaster.
In fact, Long Chen was also deeply conflicted at this moment. Now that the Tianxie Sect was at war with the enemy, going to raid their home now was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
However, Long Chen felt that things weren't that simple. What he could think of, the Tianxie Sect would surely think of too. Even if the treasures were hidden, he might not be able to find them.
Even if he found it, the treasury would be full of traps. Without Xia Chen and Guo Ran by his side, he wouldn't have had a chance at all.
Killing some small fish and shrimp was pointless, so in the end, Long Chen gritted his teeth and chose to follow behind them.
"Roar... A
furious roar came from afar. The roar was neither human nor beast, strange yet filled with boundless killing intent.
As the Tianxie Sect experts charged wildly, dust flew ahead, the sky was obscured, and figures appeared one after another in the endless dust and sand.
When he saw those figures, Long Chen was startled. Many of these figures were half-god, half-beast beings—some with beast heads and human bodies, some with human heads and beasts, some with human upper bodies and beasts below, some with a human left and a beast on the right.
There were also some whose bodies were human, but a monster's head appeared at the center of their brows. Some had the body of a fierce beast, with human bodies on top of their heads, and surprisingly resembled the fusion appearance of Bai Xiaole and Xiao Jiu.
"Damn evil species, constantly provoking us. Is the great Fusion Beast Clan really so easy to bully?" If you have guts, no one will run today—let's all fight to the death. A powerful roar came from opposite side.
Leading them was a Vajra Angry Ape wielding a bone staff, standing a hundred zhang tall, its entire body golden yellow, radiating vitality that surged to the sky.
At its forehead stood a white-haired elder, his face full of anger, but his voice came from the mouth of the Vajra Angry Ape.
"Wow, another Saint King. The Vajra Angry Ape he fused seems to be a pure-blooded primordial beast."
Long Chen's heart tightened. This old man was not only terrifying himself, but even the beast he fused with was a formidable Saint King.
"How can one sleep soundly beside the bed? Those who do not believe in evil gods may be executed. Enough talk—today, let's fight to the death!"
The sect master of the Tianxie Sect shouted sharply, his body surrounded by evil energy. Immediately after, a shocking statue appeared behind him. Upon seeing the statue, Long Chen's heart trembled. This statue was identical to the statue worshipped by the evil cultivators of the Tianwu Continent.
"Very well. Let's settle it today—to decide victory or defeat, and also to decide life and death." The elder of the Beast Fusion Clan roared in anger, and beneath him, the Vajra Furious Ape howled toward the sky, smashing both hands fiercely against his chest.
"Dong dong dong..."
As the Vajra Angry Ape struck its chest fiercely, it was like a heavenly drum being beaten, shaking heaven and earth. With every strike, its body swelled dramatically, and its aura soared wildly.
The sect master of the Tianxie Sect seemed to have long known the Vajra Angry Ape's moves and wouldn't give him a chance to improve. Suddenly, he formed hand seals, and the brow of the evil god statue behind him glowed.
"Buzz!"
The sect master of the Tianxie Sect and the Vajra Angry Ape vanished from the battlefield in an instant. The strongest members of both factions vanished. Whether it was the Tianxie Sect or the Beast Fusion Clan, everyone remained calm and continued to charge forward desperately.
Long Chen knew that the Tianxie Sect and the Beast Fusion Clan were old rivals. This was a bloody battle of soldiers against soldiers, generals versus generals. The two Saint King-level experts had gone off to fight fiercely in different places.
This kind of combat style is very common. After all, after war, you still have to get by. If a Saint King-level expert fights fiercely on the battlefield, then in the end, only two Saint Kings remain.
Even if one of the two Saint Kings wins, they are left alone, and both sides are losers. Therefore, many battlefields are fought solely by the strongest.
"Kill!"
Finally, the two armies merged, roaring with rage as the chaos erupted, and with each strike, the fiercest decisive strike was made.
"Puff puff ..."
In an instant, flesh and blood flew everywhere, corpses littered the land, and the air was filled with a pungent stench of blood. That stench drives all living beings mad. That's why many people feel no fear in battle—because the stench of blood stirs up people's most primal and savage desires.
With a thunderous explosion, a massive scythe sliced through the void like a crescent moon, slicing an arc across the earth. Wherever the arc reached, countless Fusion Beast Clan experts were sliced in two.
The red-haired man finally made his move. With this simple strike, he had killed hundreds of Destiny experts from the Fusion Beast Clan, and these Destiny Warriors were elite among them.
"There's something strange about this sickle,"
Long Chen kept his eyes fixed on the long-haired man carrying the sickle. He saw every move he made clearly. When the scythe was activated, a blood-red gleam appeared on its blade.
That blood-red edge was not the strength of the long-haired man, but the scythe itself. Among those he slain, one person's aura was almost no weaker than that of the Life-Hunting clan expert Long Chen had slain.
What shocked Long Chen the most was that as the sickle attacked, the powerful Destiny Warrior suddenly trembled all over, his body stiff, unable to dodge the strike, and watched helplessly as the scythe cleaved him in two.
This strike was too bizarre, so eerie it sent chills down one's spine. Apart from the red-haired man and those Destiny Warriors who had been killed, no one knew what had happened.
"Buzz!"
At that moment, the red-haired man raised his sickle again. The void shattered, and a black spear shot straight at the red-haired man's forehead.
"The young king of the Fusion Beast Clan has appeared." Long Chen felt a chill in his heart.
