Chapter 1217: One Massacring One Million (2/2)
Eventually, he let out one last shriek and couldn’t escape the fate of decapitation like the rest.
“It would be a shame to waste all of these lives.” Li Qiye smirked.
“Boom!” The cauldron flame changed again. These bubbles turned into stoves and instantly refined the million bodies into ashes. Their vitality was taken away and sucked into the Myriad Heavenly Cauldron.
At this time, the flame that came from the sky turned into crimson chains and hung the fish heads in the sky.
This scene was too spectacular and terrifying. The fish heads — still connected to their spines — were suspended in the air.
“Blegh!” One person couldn’t bear this horrible scene and began to vomit. Many cultivators ran away from fear.
Cultivators were accustomed to death, but slaughtering one million in one breath was truly rare. Not to mention, these fish were still hanging in the sky. This was a scene that no one had ever seen before.
“It was a trap!” The paled and dazed crowd finally realized that a terrifying trap was planted in this area in advance.
They also understood why Li Qiye warned everyone to stay out of the circle he drew. So it turned out that he was reminding people lest they be caught up in this as well.
Prior to this, they thought he had an ulterior motive, but it turned out that he warned them with good intentions. Cold chills emanated from within as they began to sweat. They only left the circle to make way for the Teeming Fish. If it wasn’t for that, their ends could have been the same as these fish before them.
“This must be a grand formation that harmonizes with the heaven and earth. Its power must be wondrous and must have taken more than just one day to set up.” A grand character from the previous generation understood the power of this trap after seeing the Teeming Tribemaster being unable to escape.
Li Qiye sweep through the crowd with his eyes and slowly uttered: “Go tell the Teeming Fish that I will be waiting here at Peac.o.c.k Land. If they want revenge, bring it on. Or, they can cower with their tails tucked between their legs and never show their faces in the Heaven Spirit World again.”
A lot of people’s hearts skipped a beat after hearing this declaration of war. Li Qiye had set up a grand formation here to wait for more Teeming Fish.
Eventually, he looked at the few human cultivators and coldly spoke: “It is time for the human race to leave.”
These humans shuddered and some of them left immediately. However, a few chose to stay in order to see the outcome of this storm.
News of Li Qiye’s move spread across the entire Jade Sea in a flash. The listeners batted their brows after hearing about his ma.s.sacre.
“This person is ruthless with great schemes. Who expected him to kill one million Teeming Fish in this manner?” A sect master murmured with fear in his mind.
“War is coming, the Teeming Fish will definitely not let this go.” A big shot from the Treant Race commented as well.
“Not just them, the Extreme Yang School and the Immaculate Expanse won’t let this go either, or else they’ll lose all face in the Heaven Spirit World.” An ancestor gently sighed.
In a short amount of time, the Jade Sea turned quiet. Many people were looking forward to the events at Peac.o.c.k Land. However, they were not concerned about the Peac.o.c.k Tree. Their eyes were on Li Qiye.
They all understood that his opponents had two choices: they could either fight a direct battle or avoid this trap and find opportunities to kill him later.
However, avoiding this battle would be a huge blow to their prestige. The reputation established by their forefathers would be shattered overnight. If they were afraid of a single human boy, how could they guard their own territories in the future?
By enduring the shame of having a million of their children ma.s.sacred, no one would fear the Teeming Fish later on!
