Becoming a Saint by Touching Corpses

Chapter 568: Chapter 545: Might

’Boom!’

As a silver giant claw, as large as a mountain, slammed down.

The tortoise shell-shaped defensive spiritual artifact in its path instantly emitted a cracking ’crackling’ sound.

Numerous cracks on its surface continued to expand, exploding, turning into countless small fragments with spiritual light that ’swish swish swish’ fell.

The giant tortoise shell, its light dimmed, nearly completely destroyed, wobbled back to the city, landing back in Elder Chen’s hand.

And the hemispherical white light shield above Jianghuai City became the silver giant claw’s next target.

Under great force, it caved in dramatically, causing the entire city to shake and tremble violently, on the verge of collapse at any moment.

Several Corpse-Driving Sect elders, distributed around the city walls maintaining the array, had pale faces and eyes filled with pain, with various bloodstains already on their clothes.

“The monster’s strength is too great, a perfect bloodline is truly unbeatable!”

“Why hasn’t the sect’s support arrived? I can’t hold on much longer…”

Were it not for the deep prowess of Chen Changqing using the tortoise shell spiritual artifact to occasionally weaken the giant wolf’s attacks, Jianghuai City would likely have been breached long ago.

Even so, the elders maintaining the array also felt like they were at the end of their ropes, unable to hold on much longer.

Meanwhile, the cultivators on the city walls had already prepared for both outcomes.

As the great cultivators were blocking the wolf demon, they began a large-scale evacuation of the city’s populace, to minimize casualties and damage when the city falls.

“Surrender, a bunch of ants.” The silver giant wolf, towering over two hundred feet, lowered its head, coldly looking at the people on the city walls, “Surrender now, and I, Chi Lechuan, the Young Wolf Lord of the Howling Moon Heavenly Wolf clan, can ensure you keep a whole corpse.

Otherwise, when the city falls, you will merely become fodder for my subordinates.

Of course, maybe left out in the sun to dry into jerky, stored for a few years.”

“Damn it, this monster is too arrogant, I’m going to fight it!” Jin Tingfeng roared angrily, about to charge out of the city.

Next to him, several disciples of the True Blood Sect held him tightly, stopping his reckless behavior.

Earlier, Jin Tingfeng, Xia Hong, Xin Ziqi, and several other top masters of the Human Race had made attempts to act.

They couldn’t even scratch the wolf demon’s hide and were instead injured by the shockwaves of its attacks on the array, forced to helplessly shrink back into the city.

Jin Tingfeng and his peers were already foremost among the later stage of Foundation Establishment, easily killing ordinary high-tier demon generals.

At this moment, they seemed a weak party being slaughtered compared to the young lord of the wolf clan with a perfect bloodline.

This left them gloomy-faced, their confidence severely shaken.

As they watched the Young Wolf Lord of the Howling Moon Heavenly Wolf clan raise another giant claw, everyone’s expressions changed.

Both the city’s array and the resisting human cultivators were already at their limits.

If it struck again, the outcome could be total city destruction and complete human extermination!

At this critical moment.

A dazzling golden light shot over from a distance, instantly hitting the giant wolf.

Though it didn’t cause any visible damage, the colossal body of the wolf seemed inexplicably fixed, with even the simplest movement becoming extremely difficult.

It struggled to lift its head, and in its eyes, akin to stars, suddenly shot out two beams of radiance.

Above the giant wolf’s head, clouds roiling incessantly amid thunder and lightning, a black giant hand, even larger than its body, extended from the clouds.

As if from a body of gods and demons, bringing unmatched power, it pressed down fiercely!

“Ow!”

The silver giant wolf emitted an earth-shattering howl.

The moon-white sound waves from its mouth almost transformed into a boundless sea of demonic power, spreading towards the giant hand, intending to engulf it.

Unfortunately, the power of the giant hand exceeded its imagination.

After scattering the sea of demonic power, it still struck the wolf demon, directly knocking it to the ground!

’Boom!’

The massive body of the wolf demon hit the ground, cracking the earth, scattering air currents, and sending debris flying in chaos.

“You bastard!” The Young Wolf Lord of the Howling Moon Heavenly Wolf clan leapt up from the ground, anger flashing in its eyes.

Its body surface had many patches of silver fur stripped away, revealing large areas of blood-stained wolf skin.

The black giant hand had flipped it over, merely causing no fatal damage, but left it quite disheveled, with its cherished fur severely damaged and its appearance dramatically reduced.

’Boom!’

The black giant hand seemed alive, delivered another slap to the wolf demon, causing its eyes to spark, with sparks flying.

The wolf demon, after being hit several times, finally responded.

Its entire body surged with demonic power, transforming into a thick white demonic power light shield, protecting itself and engaging in fierce battle with the black giant hand.

The black giant hand seemed to have life, automatically battling the wolf demon, producing huge ’clang clang clang’ sounds as if metal clashing, overwhelming, smoke and dust billowing.

Such a spectacular spectacle left everyone astonished.

“Magic resembling divinity! Someone with a Perfect Dao Foundation has intervened!” Jin Tingfeng exclaimed in shock.

As soon as his words fell, a gray-clad figure gracefully landed on the city wall of Jianghuai City.

With hair half-white, a stern face, a lean figure, it was the Great Elder who had rushed from the sect.

Seeing this, many young Corpse-Driving Sect cultivators were delighted.

“The Great Elder is here!”

“I knew the sect definitely had a way to deal with this lousy wolf!”

“The ordinary magic ’Ghost Shoulder Slap’, in the Great Elder’s hands, is like divine punishment!”

While Elder Chen and a few older elders showed little joy, instead expressing concern, asking, “Old Zheng, are the injuries alright?”

“Handling this furry beast won’t affect my injuries,” the Great Elder replied indifferently.

He turned to look at the giant wolf outside the city, furrowing his brow, “Such thick skin.”

With a wave of his hand, he released rolling Spiritual Essence.

Another towering hand appeared, joined by the previous one, to attack the giant wolf, causing it to cry out in pain repeatedly, continuously retreating.

“Good!”

Seeing this, everyone was invigorated.

As they say, there is always someone stronger.

This arrogant wolf demon had finally encountered an opponent that could teach it a lesson.

“You can’t kill me!” Even as the giant hand knocked it down the Nth time, the wolf demon defiantly roared.

Suddenly, an intense white light shone from its body.

After the white light flashed, its form rapidly shrunk, transforming into a werewolf slightly taller than a normal person, adorned with a silver crown and numerous hard spikes protruding from its shoulders and spine.

Transformed into the werewolf form, the wolf demon’s agility greatly heightened.

It skillfully maneuvered through the gaps between the giant hands formed by Ghost Shoulder Slap, almost transforming into a flash of silver lightning, impossible to grasp.

And it seemed to realize its disadvantage, preparing for a retreat.

Seeing this, the Great Elder furrowed his brow, stepping on a glowing flying carpet, shot out from the city defense array, chasing after the wolf demon.

“Die!”

The wolf demon’s face revealed a scheming smile, changing direction again, charging towards where the Great Elder was.

Its speed now increased several times from before, allowing those with faulty judgment no time to react.

Facing a magic-executing Perfect Dao Foundation cultivator, the werewolf knew its only chance was in combat.

Once it got close, even ten lives wouldn’t suffice for its opponent to survive.

Facing the werewolf’s raid, the Great Elder’s expression remained unchanged.

He waved his sleeve again, four formation flags shot into the air like streams of light.

And the two black giant hands that had been slapping the wolf demon back continuously began disintegrating, turning into a mass of black primordial qi.

Under the control of the flags, soon forming a huge cubic black prison.

Dark as ink, filled with sinister energy, various human hands, ghostly faces, and blood shadows appeared inside from time to time.

The werewolf thought it could strike close to the Great Elder, but instead fell into the Great Elder’s magical prison.

The same ’Four-Quadrant Evil Prison’, the Great Elder’s power exceeded Elder Wang’s by over tenfold!

“Sky-Splitting Claw!”

The werewolf Chi Lechuan swung its claws, transforming into ten silver light blades cutting through the air but unable to penetrate the black prison, becoming a lone prisoner.

Pushed Jianghuai City’s cultivators to the brink, powerless, the Young Wolf Lord.

Upon meeting the Great Elder, its defeat was catastrophic, unable to even get close!
