Chapter 1443: Chapter 1442: Slaughter

Moreover, they despairingly discovered that hidden within the black clouds was a demon of even more terrifying power who sat cross-legged on a black throne; this demon was the leader of these Demon Way Experts!

The person sitting on the black throne was none other than Dao Yi True Immortal. At this moment, he held in his hand a soul box, and every time a strong person was killed, a beam of mysterious dark light would shoot out from the soul box to engulf the corpse of the fallen. Wrapped in this sinister light, the corpses would wither to mummies, their True Qi and vitality absorbed, returning to the soul box, which then emitted a terrifying, satisfied sigh.

With this process continuing, the originally dim soul box began to glow mysteriously and became filled with energy.

"This is still not enough! Far from enough!"

From within the soul box, a piercing shriek erupted, utterly malevolent, "Dao Yi, what are you dawdling for?! Kill! Kill everyone!"

"Understood."

Dao Yi True Immortal lazily sat on the throne, overlooking the strong ones below with cold eyes. He then waved his hand, and a detached voice rang out.

"Finish them off quickly, and then destroy the Central Shrine."

Upon hearing this, the three formidable demon emissaries from the Azure Dragon Hall—Gui Yuan, Demon Mountain, and Blood Fiend—nodded and exchanged no words. Suddenly, they pushed their True Qi to the limit, causing their clothes to burst apart, revealing rippling muscles. In their urging, three magic arrays appeared before them.

As True Qi surged in, a mysterious black glow began to flicker intensely on these three magic arrays, the terrifying aura converging at the center. In the moment these demons thrust their hands forward, three astounding beams shot toward the ground!

Whiz! Whiz! Whiz!

The black beams howled out, piercing through the Void almost instantly. Dozens of strong ones couldn’t evade in time, and their bodies exploded into blood mist with a "bang" before even reacting, annihilated completely.

Just then, as they suffered severe losses with dozens killed in an instant, a section of the White Bone Long Whip swept over from mid-air, snaring a strong one from the Liu Sheng Family, forcibly lifting him high into the air, then with a "crack," the whip twisted the man’s head off.

Blood spurted as that White Bone Long Whip retracted, and the Flower Demon extended a crimson tongue to lick the blood off the whip, a mocking sneer forming on its lips, "A mantis trying to stop a chariot, how foolish! Today, your fates are sealed, why struggle unnecessarily?"

"Bastard!"

Beichuan Ye, Liusheng Zongyan, and the other Yingzhou experts clenched their fists tightly upon witnessing this.

All of these individuals were renowned figures on the Yingzhou Continent and had never been so oppressed. Now, under the pressure of these demons, they were like prey being slaughtered, harvested, without the slightest ability to resist, never so desolate.

Mocking glances flickered in the eyes of the three demon emissaries as they laughed maniacally. The black light array before them surged again, sending out beam after beam of black light towards the crowd!

"Everyone, attack!"

The Great Elder of the Beichuan Family gritted his teeth at this sight and shouted to the others. At this moment, only a handful of them could slightly contend with the three demon emissaries; for the rest, contact meant death.

Upon hearing the Beichuan Great Elder’s words, Liusheng Zongyan, the Great Elder of the Fengmo Clan, Tu Yumen, and the two Great Onmyoji from the Shrines, along with leaders from top families like Gongben, Shangquan, Ju Family, and Minamoto Family, all darted out. At such a time, if they had any divisions, they would truly have no place to rest in peace!

Everyone executed their signature techniques, conjuring impressive defenses before them. As the beams of black light pierced from the sky, they exploded directly in front of them. Terrifying waves of black energy swept endlessly, and under such direct collision, all defenses trembled incessantly, with Beichuan Great Elder and Liusheng Zongyan being forced back.

The crowd struggled to stabilize themselves, a muffled grunt escaping their throats as blood and energy surged within, yet fortunately, they managed to hold back the wave of attacks. Although their defenses shook nonstop, they ultimately held firm.

"Hmm? You lot aren’t entirely useless after all. But if you think this will guarantee safety, you are gravely mistaken!"

The three demon emissaries laughed uproariously, full of disdain in their laughter. The next moment, a fierce glint flashed in their eyes as they successively formed hand seals. The three black light arrays before them converged into one, and with their full force pouring in, the single black light array began to twist, transforming under astonished gazes into a gigantic Demonic Seal, which descended fiercely!

As the Demonic Seal descended, everyone looked up, their pupils reflecting the rolling seal, exuding an oppressive aura so terrifying it made them unable to raise their heads.

"Everyone, lend a hand!"

At this, the Beichuan Great Elder and Liusheng Zongyan and others turned pale, but being veterans of countless battles, they weren’t quick to concede. They all sprang forward, laying out a circular light array above the crowd, blocking attacks from the front.

Whiz! Whiz! Whiz!

Beichuan Ye and the other Fengmo Thirteen Wind experts also snapped to attention at the shouted commands—at the brink of life and death, a trace of fierceness surfaced. They immediately shouted ferociously, releasing hundreds of beams of vast true energy into the array above.

Buzzing sound!

With such immense True Qi infusing the formation, it gradually solidified, its thickness visibly congealing until over ten feet thick.

Bang!

The immense Demonic Seal coalesced by the three demon emissaries descended rapidly, landing harshly on the seemingly solid light curtain. Dazzling radiance burst forth, akin to multiple suns rising simultaneously.

Waves of terrifying energy swept madly, yet despite the deluge of power, the array had concentrated nearly all the strength of the present experts, and although the Demonic Seal’s might was extreme, it failed to break through the array!

"Hmph, a bunch of trash."

In the sky, Dao Yi True Immortal, seated on the black throne, couldn’t help but snort coldly at this sight, rising from the throne as if finally ready to take action personally!
