Chapter 484: Chapter 224: Slaying Creatures from the Depths of Darkness! The Taboo Figures All Appear

BOOM!

Suddenly, the giant thrust out a massive hand and swept it violently across the area.

It was so fast and ferocious that it seemed to break the very limits of space.

Chu Shanhe and Zhu Jiuyou’s expressions changed as they hurriedly used their divine seeds to block.

Lu Qilin and Gongsun Wuwo didn’t hesitate either, turning to unleash powerful beams of light.

But it was all useless.

The power in the giant’s palm was terrifyingly immense, like an entire mountain crashing down.

Even though Chu Shanhe controlled the Breathing Soil, forming a thick divine wall, he couldn’t block it at all.

BANG!

Space itself seemed to cave in.

The earth-yellow palm contained an unknown amount of power. It instantly shattered Chu Shanhe’s Breathing Soil barrier, then crushed all the divine light as it swept toward the group.

Their faces paled as they all retreated in a hurry.

Just as the giant’s palm was about to strike them, a glint flashed in Chen Xuan’s eyes. Without hesitation, he unleashed the power he had just gathered, blasting it toward the massive, earth-yellow giant.

Golden True Essence, wreathed in scorching lightning and flames, tore through the layers of darkness. Carrying a terrifyingly powerful aura, it smashed viciously into the giant’s palm.

"Hm?"

The giant’s eyes flickered, noticing something unusual.

But he just chuckled, paying it no mind.

He allowed Chen Xuan’s powerful attack to land squarely on his palm.

BANG!!

A violent roar echoed, the sound deafening, as the space in all directions twisted violently.

Vast swathes of darkness were blasted away.

Chen Xuan’s heart sank.

’So strong!’

’My full-power punch had no effect at all!’

The giant’s body only swayed slightly and took a single step back before he recovered, a smile spreading across his face. His eyes locked directly onto Chen Xuan.

"A little interesting. This must be the famous Yama Chen, right? Hahaha!"

He let out a booming, ear-splitting laugh.

With Chen Xuan providing a momentary distraction, Chu Shanhe, Zhu Jiuyou, Lu Qilin, and the others seized the opportunity. In a flash, they all darted away, swiftly putting distance between themselves and the giant.

In another direction, Feng Wuji, who was in the midst of his own great battle, grew furious. His gaze also shifted to what was happening here.

"Old Stone Man from the Sai family Village! You want to meddle in this business too?!"

Feng Wuji roared.

"Heh heh, Feng Wuji, you’ve accumulated countless grudges. This time, everyone is kicking you while you’re down. What? You still want to go on a killing spree?"

The earth-yellow giant smiled, crossing his arms and exuding an immense pressure. "Forget you—even if your master were here, he might not be able to suppress everyone. You’ve already gained the upper hand today, so why the need to slaughter everyone? If you’re not blind, you should take a look around!"

"What?"

Feng Wuji was startled. While continuing to clash with the elder from the Qin family Village using his Ten Thousand Souls Banner, he glanced into the surrounding darkness.

Chen Xuan, Chu Shanhe, Zhu Jiuyou, and the others also finally sensed that something was wrong and scanned their surroundings.

A colossal black shadow suddenly materialized in the darkness to one side.

It resembled a giant Black Roc, its body hidden within a thick black mist, making it incredibly indistinct. It radiated waves of a heavy, oppressive aura, and its eyes, like blood-red gates in the night, flickered in and out of sight as they gazed in this direction.

The Black Roc flashed past and vanished back into the darkness.

Then, on a nearby mountain peak, another elder suddenly appeared. He had silvery-white hair and a wrinkled face, and he wore patched robes. He held a smooth bamboo staff, from which hung a bright, ochre-colored gourd.

Mysterious characters swirled around the gourd.

It seemed to exude a trace of Chaotic Qi...

And that wasn’t all.

Besides the Black Roc and the old man, more figures flickered in and out of view in the surrounding darkness.

Each one was blurry and strange, shrouded in an obscure aura...

This scene caused everyone’s expression to shift slightly.

Feng Wuji, in particular, shouted in a grim voice, "The Black Peng King from the Cave of Ten Thousand Demons!! And... the old village head of Jiang family Village, Jiangyun! You’re not dead yet?"

"An old man has one foot in the grave."

The elder’s voice was ancient and frail, filled with the weariness of twilight years. "City Lord Feng, let’s let matters rest here today. Your Qianling City has accumulated grievances for centuries. How many factions have you provoked? Do you really intend to slaughter them all?!"

"Feng Wuji, end this now, or you won’t leave here alive!"

The Black Roc that had been hidden in the darkness reappeared, its icy eyes like massive, blood-red gates as it looked down on Feng Wuji.

"Bullshit! Who are you trying to scare?!"

Feng Wuji shouted, "When my master was around, why didn’t I see any of you pop up?"

"Feng Wuji, I’ve said my piece. Whether you listen is up to you."

The great Black Roc’s voice was icy. "It is precisely out of respect for your master that I have not struck a fatal blow. If you continue to be obstinate, none of you will leave here alive today!"

BOOM!

From the surrounding darkness, one figure after another began to reveal their auras—powerful, obscure, and difficult to perceive clearly.

They were like individual, gloomy little worlds.

Each aura was completely different.

Each aura created its own illusion...

"They’re taboo figures!"

Chu Shanhe’s expression was grave. He sent a telepathic message to Chen Xuan, saying, "Chen Xuan, don’t be reckless! These are all taboo figures!"

"Taboo figures?"

Chen Xuan’s eyes flickered as he asked via telepathy.

"Basically, they’re the leaders of various ancient villages. They’ve almost all got one foot in the Cave Heaven Realm, and they’ve all killed without batting an eye."

Chu Shanhe’s telepathic voice was grim. "Remember what I told you before? Some ancient villages are extremely dangerous and best avoided. I never thought they would actually join forces."
