Chapter 1344 - 529: Strike of the National Seal
Chapter 1344: Chapter 529: Strike of the National Seal
"This is just the opportunity to fiercely discipline them and completely change their state of mind."
Kindness is not for military leadership.
Zhong Dao’s leadership style of the Evil Slaying Hall has always been so iron-blooded.
From another perspective, the size of the Myriad Images Sect is too large. There are too many people in Myriad Images.
After this Feiyun Conference, another batch of cultivators will be absorbed.
Using this battle for some elimination, removing the bad and keeping the good, will benefit the Cloud Prison in the long run.
"But why hasn’t Wu An come yet?"
The direct person in charge of this Cloud Prison is Wu An. Although the Cloud Prison is overall managed by the Evil Slaying Hall, daily guarding, patrolling, and formation maintenance are all Wu An’s responsibilities.
If Zhong Dao acts now, it solidifies Wu An’s negligence. A negligent Guard Commander of the Cloud Prison could be lightly dismissed or heavily punished. This is not what Zhong Dao wants to see.
The elite cultivators do not belong to the Evil Slaying Hall, and standing here is simply tormenting.
Eventually, someone urged again: "Master Zhong Dao..."
Zhong Dao snorted coldly, interrupting: "Why rush? How much do you know about that Demon God?"
The elite cultivators’ expressions momentarily froze.
Zhong Dao said slowly: "My Evil Slaying Hall has dealt with these demons for years. I understand them more than you do. I don’t blame you for not knowing them."
He paused, his gaze deep: "That Demon God is fully named ’Infinite Realm Gap Master’. "
" ’Infinite’ means seamless, wholly integrated. Within ’infinite’, gaps can be created, and the master of these gaps is the Infinite Realm Gap Master."
"He is among the Demon Gods, consuming all material, regardless of life or death. The gaps he creates are both passages and traps."
Just as he finished speaking, screams emanated from the array line in front.
The first few Demon Cultivators that stormed into the gap void were all devoured.
This is the Infinite Realm Gap Master feeding!
In front of the void gap, the Demon Cultivators retreated repeatedly. The few who fled first perished in front of everyone, and this brutal reality directly extinguished everyone’s zeal. Freedom was within sight, but death was too. No one dared to rashly enter the gap.
The guards were not going to give them time to hesitate.
"Kill!" The Guard Commander roared hoarsely.
The guards swarmed forward, blades and swords flashing, shouts shaking the heavens.
The Demon Cultivators retreated step by step, suffering heavy casualties.
The Eagle Claw Butcher’s ten fingers were blood-soaked, and half of his steel claws were broken.
The Ghost-faced Scholar’s ghost mask changed repeatedly, with increasingly severe injuries.
The Copper Head Tuo’s head scars all dimmed, and his strength fell to the bottom.
In such a situation, Zhong Dao finally took action!
Clang!
A chime resounded like the sky collapsing and the earth cracking, abruptly exploding. It penetrated the clouds, the stone walls, through everyone’s eardrums, reaching the depths of their souls.
The array line of the Demon Cultivators fell into chaos, a chorus of wails.
Some bled from all seven orifices, some fell to their knees, some fainted directly!
Clang—clang—clang—
The three chimes, each louder than the last, each deeper than the last, each more explosive than the last.
The struggling Demon Cultivators seemed to be struck by an invisible giant hammer, with a dozen souls scattered, collapsing dead on the spot!
Zhong Dao slowly descended.
"It’s the Master!" The morale of the guardian cultivators surged crazily.
The Demon Cultivators were intimidated, showing obvious fear.
When the chime rings, demons flee; when three chimes ring, all ghosts mourn.
Zhong Dao stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze sweeping over the still struggling Demon Cultivators, coldly speaking: "Surrender and you won’t be killed."
The corridor fell into a deathly silence.
The Demon Cultivators looked at each other, filled with inner struggle.
"I... I surrender..." One Demon Cultivator’s voice trembled, first kneeling.
With the first, came the second, the third. The Demon Cultivators knelt one after another, some held their heads in their hands, others lay prone on the ground.
Of course, there were also Demon Cultivators who preferred death over surrender, directly jumping into the void gap and then being instantly devoured by the Infinite Realm Gap Master.
However, after five Demon Cultivators died, one surprisingly succeeded in escaping!
"Hahaha." The Withered Bone Old Demon laughed upon seeing this, leaped and jumped into the void gap.
Under many eyes, he wasn’t devoured, and was directly transported, escaping the place!
This scene immediately made all the existing Demon Cultivators ecstatic!
They went crazy, rushing towards the void gap.
The Eagle Claw Butcher was the first to rush into the gap.
The Copper Head Tuo originally followed closely behind.
The Enchanting Phantom Demoness released the last bit of fragrance, confusing the Copper Head Tuo for a moment, and went in ahead.
The Copper Head Tuo reacted, cursed, and chased in.
...
By the time the guardian cultivators reached the front of the void gap, over twenty Demon Cultivators had passed through the gap, transported to safety.
"Master Zhong Dao!" The elite cultivators were anxious, "How do we track them now?"
Zhong Dao stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the slowly closing gap, said indifferently: "We can’t catch up."
The elite cultivators looked at each other, fell into silence, and their faces all showed obvious dissatisfaction.
In their view, although Zhong Dao personally acted, causing the Demon Cultivators’ array line to collapse completely, he was overly arrogant, did not give his all, and did not allow the elite cultivators to act, clearly delaying the battle opportunity, which ultimately led to increased casualties of the guardian cultivators and many Demon Cultivators escaping.
The escape of prisoners from the Cloud Prison is a huge scandal.
Especially during the Myriad Images Sect opening its Main Mountain Gate and hosting the Feiyun Conference. This is a grand occasion, during this time of public attention, even a small mistake would greatly damage the Myriad Images Sect’s reputation.
Now, the Cloud Prison incident has become a major accident that has never occurred in many sessions of the Myriad Images Sect’s Feiyun Conference.
