Chapter 1698: The Human-Shaped Weapon, Lei Ze
Dust and smoke permeated the air.
Lei Ze’s ten-foot frame seemed as unshakeable as a mountain as he stood protectively before Su Yi.
He was instantly the center of attention. Every heart present shook. None of them had ever seen anything like this. Lei Ze was only a Combat Soul Puppet, so how could he be so unreasonably strong?
Xie Kuiyuan, Li Beique, and the other Immortal Kings frowned.
They’d anticipated that Su Yi had cards up his sleeves. It seemed reasonable, given that he’d chosen to oppose seven Immortal Kings at once.
This was why they attacked in full force right from the start, without the slightest politeness.
Still, they could never have guessed that Su Yi’s trump card was such a terrifying Combat Soul Puppet!
Just one move, and he blocked the joint attack of seven Immortal Kings. Who’d ever seen such a puppet before?
It was simply unbelievable. Throughout the ages, and throughout the Immortal Realm, there was nothing else like it!
Xie Kuiyuan took a deep breath and transmitted, “Brother Li, lead three others and hold the puppet off. The rest of us will kill that little wretch! We have to end this quickly!”
“Got it!” Li Beique nodded.
……
“Lei Ze, take a look at those seven old-timers. If you’re confident you can pull it off, just kill them all. No need for mercy,” Su Yi whispered his orders.
Lei Ze’s source energy was severely depleted, and his soul was badly damaged, making him frequently muddle-headed.
But he wouldn’t back down from battle. Combat was in his instincts!
And his strength was absolutely terrifying.
Back in the hidden realm from the Primeval Era, the Zhuyou Great Peng and Divine Fortune Teller tried repeatedly to get past Lei Ze, but Lei Ze crushed them with ease. They couldn’t even fight back.
And the Zhuyou Great Peng was in the late-stage Miracle Realm!
“Yes, Master!” Lei Ze said solemnly. His entire body surged with stinging purple electricity, and the depths of his gaze shone with bloodthirsty light.
Off in the distance, Li Beique led a group of three other Immortal Kings. The four of them charged at Lei Ze.
Clang!
Li Beique poured his power into his flying sword, stirring up a swath of dazzling sword light that swept outward and blanketed the sky.
The other three swung their weapons and charged at Lei Ze from different directions.
There were only four of them, but when they joined forces, their combined power was even greater than their initial seven-man attack!
There was no doubt about it. They realized how terrifying Lei Ze was, and they attacked without the slightest reservation. They wanted to lock Lei Ze down and give their allies an opportunity to eradicate Su Yi.
“Get him!”
Xie Kuiyuan’s eyes erupted with murderous intent as he led the other Immortal Kings into battle. The three of them charged at Su Yi.
But just as they were about to attack, Xie Kuiyuan and the others visibly lost their composure.
They watched as——
Boom!
Heaven and earth swayed as purple lightning bathed Lei Ze’s mountainous frame. He was like an ancient god of war arising from the Primeval Era, and his terrifying aura blanketed the sky!
He raised his hand and grabbed.
Crunch!
The silver halberd shooting toward his face broke as if it were made of tofu.
Its owner, a white-haired old man in black, could never have anticipated this. The halberd had been an Immortal King-level treasure. Who’d have thought Lei Ze could destroy it so quickly and with such ease?
The sight made him panic, and he immediately turned to flee.
Lei Ze snorted coldly.
Boom!
The black-robed, white-haired elder felt as if his soul had been struck by lightning. Everything went black, and his vital energy almost scattered and dispersed on impact.
Before he could respond, a cattail-fan-sized hand smacked him in the face. His skull exploded like a watermelon, and the tyrannical force of the blow exploded his body to pieces. His soul origin didn’t even get the chance to escape; it was instantly destroyed.
From a distance, the old man was like a firework blooming instantly beneath Lei Ze’s palm, followed by a crimson rain.
One palm strike, and Lei Ze crushed an Immortal King!
Brutal!
Tyrannical!
Bloody!
And it had seemed as effortless as crushing an ant.
But while Lei Ze slaughtered the old man in black, a fly whisk stirred up endless starlight, and a spear swathed in appalling flames descended.
This time, the attackers were a man in gray robes and a middle-aged man with a curly beard.
The former gripped the fly whisk, the latter the spear. The moment the white-haired old man in black died, they attacked.
Lei Ze made no attempt to dodge.
A mysterious totem rose from his battered armor. It was shaped like a ravening maw, and it devoured the starlight and flames completely, leaving not even a drop behind.
Both experts completely lost their composure and turned to flee. This is bad!
But they were already too late. Lei Ze took a step forward, and his hands shot forth. Just like that, he seized both Immortal Kings by the throat and held them aloft as if they were a pair of chickens.
Then, beneath the crowd’s flabbergasted, terrified gazes, he slammed the two Immortal Kings into each other.
Bang!!
The sound of snapping bone and pulped flesh was enough to make one’s scalp go numb with fright.
Both Immortal Kings’ bodies burst, and their souls were reduced to powder. What remained of their flesh crumbled into ash beneath Lei Ze’s fan-sized palms and scattered to the winds.
His killing technique was brutal to the extreme, bloody, and unsettling.
After all, both experts had been Immortal Kings, yet Lei Ze crushed them as if they were nothing at all!
Kcch!
Li Beique’s flying sword was already hovering above Lei Ze’s head, but Li Beique was scared out of his wits. He immediately tried to retrieve his weapon and flee explosively, in no way daring to approach any further.
Just like that, the joint attack of four Immortal Kings had broken.
They’d just wanted to hold Lei Ze back, only for Lei Ze to crush three of them in an instant with the utmost brutality!
If Li Beique hadn’t struck from afar with a flying sword, he almost certainly would have met with the same fate!
It was just too terrifying! And it had all happened far too quickly.
In the blink of an eye, Lei Ze killed three Immortal Kings as if they were made of rotten wood. Xie Kuiyuan and the others intent on targeting Su Yi while his guardian was distracted panicked. They quivered with fright, no longer daring to approach.
Every last one of them was deathly pale, and their hearts shook. How could this Combat Soul Puppet possibly be so brutal!?
Deathly silence descended upon the area. Even the distant onlookers’ hearts shook, and all of them looked dazed.
He cuts down Immortal Kings like a farmer cuts grass! What kind of monster is this!?
How could such a terrifying Combat Spirit Puppet exist in this world?
Immortal King Zhen Yan, Tang Jinhong, and the other higher-ups watching from a distance couldn’t help but gasp. All of them were visibly startled.
It wasn’t that they were sympathetic, but seeing experts of the same level as them cut down like they were nothing filled their hearts with intense dread. They were now viscerally aware of how terrifying this Combat Spirit Puppet was!
It really was horrifying.
In the present-day Immortal Realm, Great Realm experts were stuck in seclusion. Only Immortal Kings were worthy opponents for Immortal Kings. Everyone else was a junior entirely unworthy of notice.
Yet now, a mere puppet, a human-shaped weapon, not even a true cultivator, was slaughtering Immortal Kings as if they were chickens. Who wouldn’t have been startled?
And who… wouldn’t have been terrified?
Even Su Yi couldn’t help but be startled.
Only he knew how terrible Lei Ze’s condition was. Lei Ze had survived the ancient Primeval Era, and divine power had corroded his body all this time. His source energy and soul were badly damaged.
Despite this, Lei Ze’s strength was sufficient to crush early-stage Miracle Realm experts with ease. Su Yi struggled to even imagine how powerful Lei Ze must have been at his peak.
Boom!
Before the crowd could recover from their astonishment, Lei Ze’s towering frame transformed into a bolt of electric light and disappeared.
A moment later, he reappeared in front of Li Beique and swung his fist.
Li Beique had long since been scared out of his wits. Without the slightest hesitation, he retreated once more, and in the blink of an eye, he’d covered tens of thousands of feet.
Lei Ze swung his right arm through the air.
Whoosh!
A divine chain of interwoven purple lightning shot forth, piercing the sky and wrapping around Li Beique.
Li Beique freaked out and shrieked at the top of his lungs, “I admit defeat——!”
Lei Ze ignored him and yanked the purple chain.
Bang!!
Li Beique was ripped open at the waist. His soul and flesh were both reduced to powder beneath the explosive purple lightning.
He’d been completely annihilated!
Yet another Immortal King had perished. This bloody spectacle shook the remaining Immortal Kings’ hearts. None of them dared hesitate. All of them fled immediately with all their might.
Lei Ze’s eyes glinted with bloodlust as he raised his hands into the air and bellowed, “Void Prohibition!”
Boom!
Resplendent purple immortal light appeared throughout the surrounding hundred thousand feet, blanketing the sky and blotting out the sun. The entire area was completely sealed, as if it had transformed into an enormous, invisible cage!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The three fleeing Immortal Kings slammed into the invisible walls of the cage with a series of muffled thuds, then staggered on impact. All of them were dizzy.
But they had no time to concern themselves with their discomfort. Their faces paled, and they were overcome with fright.
There was nowhere to run. That was enough to make even Immortal Kings like them give in to despair.
“Brother Tang, you’re the host of this Divine Hunt. Are you really just going to watch as all of us are killed?” bellowed Xie Kuiyuan.
As he spoke, the other two Immortal Kings attacked like mad, trying to break through the invisible “cage” blocking their path. From a distance, they were like three panicked flies caught in an inescapable net.
Lei Ze was already fast approaching.
Tang Jinhong said expressionlessly, “Earlier, this old man said he wouldn’t get involved in this matter any further. You yourself approved of my decision, Xie Kuiyuan. What do your lives and deaths have to do with the Tang Family?”
Before his voice had even finished echoing through the air…
Bang!!
An Immortal King’s body exploded into pieces beneath Lei Ze’s fist. Blood splattered the sky.
“Everyone, don’t tell me you’re really just going to stand back and watch him kill us!?” Xie Kuiyuan roared, his eyes bloodshot. He was completely panicked.
The Immortal Kings who’d chosen to spectate rather than get involved were silent. None of them paid any attention to Xie Kuiyuan.
That Combat Soul Puppet could kill Immortal Kings as if they were chickens. Who’d dare to get mixed up in this now?
Bang!!
Dazzling purple electric light ripped through the skies, and yet another Immortal King perished. The lightning bore a hole through his body, exploding him into bits.
Countless hearts quivered just watching this bloody spectacle. Lei Ze’s strength was far too terrifying. He was like a heartless weapon in human form. Even Immortal Kings were clay chickens and porcelain dogs before him!
Now, throughout this entire sealed-off stretch of heaven and earth, only one Immortal King remained. Xie Kuiyuan was the only one left!
