Chapter 888: Su Han Makes a Move

"It’s too tragic, so many people couldn’t escape, even Buddha Great Saint is probably in grave danger!"

"Luckily we didn’t go inside, otherwise it would mean death for us too. Earth Spirit Great Saint is too ruthless—wanting not just the Qilin Undying Medicine, but also the lives of so many people. But King Yama’s Palace is a dark force; they don’t fear offending other immortal forces."

"Earth Spirit Great Saint has been planning this moment for a long time; it seems the battle is already decided!"

Outside the Holy Formation, several saints who hadn’t entered the mountains with the hope of picking up scraps were now gasping in shock, their eyes wide with horror.

They hadn’t expected another Hell Netherworld Formation hidden beneath the Tian Luo Net Earthly Trap Formation, now both formations activated at once. Buddha Great Saint and others were trapped inside, unable to call for help, slowly awaiting death.

Inside the formation, few saints were left, the weaker ones already dead, leaving only a handful of stronger ones struggling desperately. But at this rate, even the remaining few would not escape death.

Among them, Buddha Great Saint was a Great Saint Expert, originating from the Dugu Imperial Clan, yet he was still unable to escape the Holy Formation and would fall here.

Su Han had now returned, joining the few saints to observe the great battle.

Tian Luo Net Earthly Trap Formation and Hell Netherworld Formation had fallen under his control, but he didn’t immediately usurp the command, waiting for the perfect timing to act.

With his strength, he couldn’t deal with Earth Spirit Great Saint alone, let alone so many strong adversaries, so he had to wait until Earth Spirit Great Saint dealt with most of the enemies before he made his move.

As for the tragic deaths of the saints inside the formation, Su Han felt no sympathy. The Undying Medicine wasn’t easy to contend for, once involved, they had to prepare themselves mentally for falling.

Martial Arts is difficult, with hundreds competing like boats on a river; only a few ever reach the peak, while the rest become mere bones.

For every successful general, countless bones die in vain—how much more so for a Martial Arts Great Emperor!

"Great Thunder Sound Sword Formation!"

A long howl rang out, capturing everyone’s attention. The Thunder Sound Sword Saint from Nanshu Jian Gong was close to exhaustion, ready to unleash his most powerful attack while he still had the strength for one more fight to try and carve a path to survival.

Rumbling thunder, sword light burst forth from Thunder Sound Sword Saint’s body, each one gleaming with golden brilliance, seemingly formed by golden lightning, possessing terrifying speed of sound, along with the sharpness of a sword and the destruction of thunder.

Thunder Sound Sword Saint was very powerful, although he was only a Holy Master’s Holy Master, he wielded Thunder Sound Sword Technique and dominated the Central Plains undefeated. Now, trapped, he’s unleashing his strongest strike.

Eighty-one rays of thunder sound sword radiance roared out, crystalline and substantial, encircling Thunder Sound Sword Saint. Each ray could cleave heavens and sunder earth, terrifyingly powerful, now forming a sword array, enhancing its power even further.

Bang!

Thunder Sound Sword Saint’s mouth and nose seeped blood, pouring all his energy into the Great Thunder Sound Sword Formation. Under his control, the formation attacked the Netherworld Dragon, slicing space and halting time, cleaving apart all energies.

"Underworld Death Beam!"

Earth Spirit Great Saint’s expression didn’t change, his seal decisions shifted hand positions, and the enormous Netherworld Dragon opened its massive maw, condensing a golden, death Qi-filled Holy Light that shot out, striking the Great Thunder Sound Sword Formation.

This strike could destroy mountains and collapse cities. Despite the formation’s strength, it couldn’t resist. Instantly, sword radiances shattered and scattered, and finally, the Underworld Death Beam struck Thunder Sound Sword Saint’s body, blasting a bloody hole through him.

Thud!

Thunder Sound Sword Saint died, eyes still filled with unwillingness and desire for life. Never did he imagine he’d fall here, but it’s too late for regrets now.

The Thunder Sound Sword Saint of Nanshu Jian Gong now lay as a cold corpse on the ground!

With Thunder Sound Sword Saint’s death, the resistance further waned. Immediately, two more saints were slain by Netherworld Dragon, their bodies annihilated, the scene tragically bleak.

"Demon Bloodline!"

Buddha Great Saint roared in anger, activating the meager demon bloodline within, his whole body surged with Demonic Qi, black Demonic Flames rising from his skin. This flame boosted Buddha Great Saint’s aura, increasing his power significantly.

"Kill!"

Wielding the Buddha Demon Tower, Buddha Great Saint activated it, increasing its power. The tower seemed like an ancient Demon Mountain, Demonic Qi surged skyward, confounding the mind, impossible to escape.

Black Demonic Flames flew out, striking the Netherworld Dragon, causing sizzling sounds reminiscent of water clashing with fire, inflicting slight damage on the dragon.

"It’s useless, no matter how you struggle, the only path is death!"

Earth Spirit Great Saint calmly controlled the Holy Formation, the enormous Netherworld Dragon charged at Buddha Great Saint, thunderous roars bursting forth, energy waves like tides, destroying everything.

Having activated his demon bloodline, Buddha Great Saint was exceedingly powerful, like a true demon descending, bringing endless slaughter and destruction. But the Hell Netherworld Formation was too strong, personally controlled by Earth Spirit Great Saint. The battle had Buddha Great Saint continuously roaring in anger, yet unable to escape.

Bang!

Buddha Demon Tower was knocked away, crashing to the ground, causing mountain peaks to collapse and a crater to form. Keen-eyed observers noticed cracks covering the Buddha Demon Tower—this Holy Artifact was damaged and couldn’t be used.

Though Buddha Great Saint lost the Buddha Demon Tower, he still had other Holy Artifacts and treasures, now continually attacking, locked in battle with the Netherworld Dragon. Yet regardless of his methods or treasures, he couldn’t defeat the dragon, much less escape.

"If you want me dead, then let’s perish together!"

In despair, Buddha Great Saint knew he couldn’t escape today, yet he refused to be killed so easily. He chose self-destruction, aiming to drag Earth Spirit Great Saint down with him.

"Evil Spirit Sealing Talisman!"

However, Earth Spirit Great Saint had prepared for this, grabbing and releasing an immensely powerful Holy Talisman that landed on Buddha Great Saint, halting his self-destructive move as if trapped by malevolent spirits.

Taking advantage, Earth Spirit Great Saint swiftly struck, the Netherworld Dragon pounced upon Buddha Great Saint, tearing him apart, Holy Blood staining the sky.

Buddha Great Saint also died, even his soul could not escape, completely perished.

With Buddha Great Saint’s death, the battle neared its end, the remaining saints all perished at the hands of the Netherworld Dragon, leaving only Heart Sword Saint alive.

Earth Spirit Great Saint showed no mercy, controlling the dragon to attack Heart Sword Saint, aiming to conclusively end the battle.

Yet at this moment, the Netherworld Dragon, instead of targeting Heart Sword Saint, turned to attack Earth Spirit Great Saint.

This sudden turn shocked everyone.

What was happening?
