Chapter 1070: Killing Demonic Beasts
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
The huge array arranged like a chain of rings acted as a meat grinder, killing the demonic beasts that constantly rushed into it. Tang Xiu himself turned as though a phantom that kept flickering and wandering inside the array, silently reaping the lives of demonic beasts. For the demonic beasts and enemy cultivators, the array was like the land of death. But it was like his own back garden to Tang Xiu.
ROAAR…
Hissss….
Countless demonic beasts roared and frantically launched their onslaught on the array, causing chaotic turbulence to the 14 linked arrays. After half an hour of slaughter, Tang Xiu rushed out of the array with a wretched appearance, his clothes soaked with blood as though he was just fished out from a pool of blood.
“Tang Xiu!”
A lightning-fast shadow bolted from nearby, followed by the others who wore worried expressions and awe.
Wiping off the blood on his face, Tang Xiu hurriedly asked, “Who are these people, Senior Duanmu?”
Taking a deep breath, Duanmu Lin grabbed the communicator, pressed the green button, and shouted, “Killing Squad Warriors, enter the arrays now!”
Shortly after, a group of shadows bolted from the distance and rushed into the arrays in the blink of an eye. They were the 140 cultivators who were invited by Duanmu Lin by various means and then sent to Tang Xiu a week ago to learn about the arrays’ operation.
Although they didn’t have a thorough understanding of the arrays, they could remember the route and orientation within the formation to kill demonic beasts that entered it. The weakest among them was at the late-stage of Foundation Establishment while the strongest were experts at the Golden Core Stage.
Each group consisted of 10 people. They quickly took advantage of the array right after entering it. They were like petrol that was poured on the fire that burned and killed the demonic beasts inside the array. The 140 people could easily enter and retreat while attacking and defending at the same time. However, the number of demonic beasts was really too many that they were simply jam-packed inside the array.
“We can’t hold it anymore! Retreat quickly!”
A cultivator manipulating the array suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood and shouted. The remaining six cultivators who were still alive inside rushed out of the array with scars a few seconds after. They were panting heavily and hadn’t had time to breathe more as the array was broken.
Shortly after, the other arrays also followed suit. One of the cultivators who had escaped was badly battered and desperately dashed through the blockade line, looking a bit despaired. All of the remaining ones were seriously injured and must be treated promptly. They would only meet their deaths otherwise should they participate in the next battle.
Tang Xiu, who had changed his clothes at this moment, crazily absorbed the demonic energy in the Demon Cores to supplement his energy consumption. Chilling light overflowing from his eyes upon seeing that the 14 arrays had been broken. His figure soared and the divine sword instantly swept away to crush a certain flying demonic beast.
“Demons and Immortals Slaughtering Array!”
A deafening voice instantly spread into the sky. A thick blood fog was formed by the blood of the demonic beasts and humans, filling the area tens of kilometers around the blockade line, and ultimately created a boundless ocean of blood that killed all the demonic beasts inside. The Demons and Immortals Slaughtering Array covered a very large area and enveloped at least tens of thousands of demonic beasts.
CRACK… BOOM…
Violent thunderstorms were as though clapping down from the highest vault of heaven, making all the demonic beasts in the array howl. The sound seemed to be able to destroy the souls and control their minds. It was like it was the voice of Buddhas and Demons, yet it brought extreme aggressiveness within. At the same time, lightning flashed down like a hurricane. Each lightning bolt was the size of an arm that severely wounded Golden Core Stage demonic beasts and killed those at the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Ting, ting, ting…
Suddenly, the magnetic sound of a zither drifted from outside of the Demons and Immortals Slaughtering Array. In nearly an instant, the tens of thousands of demonic beasts inside the array felt like the world before them had changed. They seemed to see the place where they were born, seeing their hometown and smelling the aura of the soil in their Demon Realm. They could even hear the unique howling winds of their birthplace.
Puff… puff… puff…
Lightning flashed down like rain.
Each and every demonic beast that died in the lightning rain died, yet they wore smiling faces as their bodies slowly fell down. The ground was littered by their corpses while blood created a scarlet river. In just half a minute, the tens of thousands of demonic beasts met their deaths by the lightning blasts.
ROAAARR…
The building-sized demonic beast at the Nascent Soul Stage noticed that something was amiss after rushing out of the Demons and Immortals Slaughtering Array. It let out a furious roar as countless black scimitars appeared out of the blue and clashed with the blasting lightning bolts. Suddenly, the lightning bolts were blocked for a time and significantly slowed down the killings of demonic beasts.
Ting, ting, ting…
The syllable from the zither outside the array suddenly changed its tone. The notes now turned like a blasting storm like the collision between iron horses. Suddenly, all the Foundation Establishment demonic beasts in the Demons and Immortals Slaughtering Array lost their smiling faces to looks of pain.
