Chapter 495
Mount Buzhou Collapses! Di Jun Draws the Power of Heaven to Blast the Pangu Temple
Qiangliang's destructive thunderbolts poured down like a torrential rain, leveling mountain peaks to the ground.
The extinction grid of Xizi cut silently, and swathes of demons fell.
The absolute cold domain of Xuanming froze everything, and countless demons were turned into ice sculptures and shattered.
Gonggong's blood-red ocean of filth and corruption eroded the last vestiges of the demon race's will to resist...
The ten armies of the witch clan, like ten red-hot daggers, plunged fiercely into the heart of the Ten Thousand Mountains!
A century! Just a century! The casualties among the demon race far exceeded those of the first war between the Lich King and the Demon King!
Corpses piled up like mountains, blood and essence stained rivers red, and resentment soared into the sky, obscuring the sun!
The Ten Thousand Mountains have been completely turned into a purgatory and graveyard for the demon race!
Countless demon tribes were uprooted, and low-level demons were slaughtered!
However, what unsettles all the witches is that no matter how rampant and how many people they slaughter, the core leadership of the demon race remains.
Di Jun, Tai Yi, Bai Ze, Ji Meng, Ying Zhao, and other top-tier experts seemed to have vanished into thin air, never showing themselves! It was as if they were completely indifferent to the Wu Clan's slaughter of these low-level demons!
"Hmph! They must be hiding in some rat hole, trembling with fear!"
Zhu Rong stomped out a still-burning demonic fire and snorted disdainfully.
He had just annihilated another large demon tribe and was in high spirits.
Just then, a scout from the Wu tribe, covered in blood, staggered over.
"Report! Ancestral Witch Zhurong! Ahead... ahead in the valley! One of our clan's vanguard squads... has been completely wiped out!"
"what?!"
Flames surged in Zhurong's eyes.
"Useless! We've fallen into an ambush! Lead the way!"
Soon, Zhu Rong led an elite force to the valley.
At the valley entrance, the corpses of dozens of witch warriors lay scattered about, their deaths gruesome, all torn apart by sharp claws, exuding a strong demonic aura!
Deep in the valley, mist filled the air, and faint, unsettling waves emanated from it.
"Kuafu!"
Zhu Rong roared in anger.
"exist!"
A powerful shaman, towering ten thousand feet tall and exuding a majestic aura, stepped forward in response—it was none other than Kuafu!
"Take some men in and investigate! See what kind of evil spirit is causing this!"
Zhu Rong gave the order.
Kuafu accepted the order and led several hundred elite Wu tribe warriors cautiously into the misty valley.
However, just moments later, a deafening roar and fury erupted from the valley! A terrifying demonic aura burst forth!
Kuafu's towering figure appeared and disappeared in the mist, but he was forced to retreat repeatedly, his body covered with deep claw marks that revealed the bone!
The hundreds of elite troops he brought in were instantly submerged in the raging wave of demonic energy, their auras completely extinguished!
Kuafu let out a painful roar, and with all his might, he rushed out of the valley, covered in blood, weak and exhausted, with one of his arms almost torn off!
"Lord Ancestral Witch! There is... there is great terror in the valley! The formation is bizarre! The demonic aura is overwhelming! I... I cannot withstand it!"
Kuafu knelt on one knee, his voice hoarse, his eyes filled with horror.
"Bastard!"
Enraged, Zhu Rong unleashed his million-foot-long fiery form, ready to charge into the valley without regard for anything else.
"This ancestral witch will see what dares to harm my great witch!"
"Zhurong! Wait!"
Kuafu endured excruciating pain and desperately held off Zhurong.
"Do not act rashly! This valley is strange! We must wait for the other Ancestral Witches to arrive! Otherwise, there may be a trap!"
Although Zhurong was furious, seeing Kuafu's miserable state, he knew the situation was serious and forcibly suppressed his anger.
"Send a message immediately! Tell Zhu Jiuyin and the others to come here right away!"
Upon hearing the news, the remaining nine Ancestral Witches quickly led their main force to the scene and surrounded the eerie valley!
The combined pressure of ten terrifying ancestral witches dispelled some of the mist surrounding the valley, revealing a deathly still scene within.
"Hmph! Playing tricks! Watch as this Ancestral Witch breaks through its defenses!"
Zhu Rong could no longer contain himself. His million-foot-tall fiery form suddenly expanded, and his fists, condensing heaven-burning fire, slammed fiercely into the entrance of the valley like two burning stars!
At the entrance to the valley, an invisible barrier trembled violently and burst forth with blinding light!
Countless mysterious runes flowed and disappeared on the barrier! Zhu Rong's furious attack failed to completely break through it!
"Let's do it together!"
Zhu Jiuyin's Eye of Time shifted, revealing that this barrier was no ordinary thing.
Upon hearing this, the other Ancestral Witches simultaneously erupted!
Gonggong's crimson waves, Qiangliang's destructive thunder, Xizi's extinction grid, Xuanming's absolute ice...
Ten earth-shattering forces bombarded that invisible barrier!
Click! Click!
The barrier finally gave way and shattered, revealing the interior of the valley!
"Charge in!"
Zhu Rong was the first to roar and charge into the valley!
Zhu Jiuyin, Gonggong, Qiangliang, Xizi, and Xuanming followed closely behind! Tianwu, Shebishi, Jumang, and Rushou provided support from the outside to prevent the demons from escaping.
However, the moment Zhu Jiuyin and the other five Ancestral Witches rushed into the valley, the scene before them caused their pupils to shrink and their minds to tremble!
The valley was not the expected lair of the demon race, but a desolate battlefield!
The corpses of the Wu Clan members who had previously broken in to investigate, including the elite troops brought in by Kuafu later, were all piled up at the bottom of the valley. Their deaths were exactly the same as those at the valley entrance; they had all been torn apart by sharp claws!
Zhu Rong, who was at the forefront, was kneeling on the ground. His million-foot-long fiery body was dim and without light. A huge claw mark was deeply embedded in his chest, and the golden blood of the Ancestral Witch flowed like lava!
He was weak and exhausted; he was seriously injured!
"Blessing!"
Gonggong exclaimed in surprise and rushed forward to help him up.
"Be careful... Di Jun... he..."
Zhu Rong managed to utter a few words, his eyes filled with horror and disbelief.
"Di Jun?!"
Zhu Jiuyin's Eye of Time spun wildly, scanning the entire valley!
Qiangliang, Xizi, and Xuanming also instantly became alert, unleashing their full Ancestral Witch power to lock onto all four directions!
"He... broke through!"
Zhu Rong's voice trembled with despair.
"what?!"
The Ancestral Witches, including Zhu Jiuyin, were utterly shocked! Di Jun had broken through?! A Quasi-Saint?!
How can this be? !
They had been besieging him the whole time, how could Di Jun possibly break through right under their noses?! Just then, a cold, majestic voice filled with endless killing intent resounded throughout the valley, penetrating it and reaching the ears of the billions of witch clan soldiers surrounding the valley!
"Witch Clan! You have slaughtered my demon race for a hundred years! Your blood debts are countless! Today, I will use the blood of your ancestral witches to appease the millions of demon souls who have perished!"
Above the valley, the void twisted! The Hetu and Luoshu, like a gigantic scroll that blotted out the sky, suddenly unfolded!
Stars shift and mountains move!
A vast and immense, terrifying pressure, far exceeding anything seen before, suddenly descended!
Under this oppressive force, even the Ancestral Witches, including Zhu Jiuyin, felt a chill run down their spines!
Di Jun's figure slowly emerged from the center of the Hetu Luoshu!
He was dressed in imperial robes and wore a crown; his face was as cold and stern as ice that had stood for millennia!
His aura was as deep and boundless as the sea! The pressure of a quasi-saint, surpassing even that of a Grand Luo Golden Immortal, crushed the entire valley!
Behind him stood Taiyi, Bai Ze, Jimeng, Yingzhao, Feilian, Jiuying…
All the core high-ranking members of the demon race appeared! Each of them swelled with aura, their eyes were icy cold, and filled with deep-seated hatred!
"The stars of the heavens, rise!"
Di Jun's voice was like a decree from the heavens!
The entire Ten Thousand Mountains, no!
The entire primordial world seemed to tremble! The power of billions of stars, ignoring spatial barriers, descended from the heavens!
Countless dazzling starlight pierced through the heavy baleful aura and restrictions of the Hundred Thousand Mountains, landing with unparalleled precision outside the valley, among the billions of witch clan soldiers!
Each ray of starlight corresponds to a demon cultivator!
These demon cultivators were not the low-level demons who had been slaughtered before, but the true core elites of the demon race!
They had been hiding for a long time in various parts of the Ten Thousand Mountains, relying on the natural terrain and the array bases set up by Emperor Jun!
At this moment, under the command of the Hetu Luoshu and driven by the quasi-saint power of Emperor Jun, hundreds of millions of demon cultivators simultaneously revealed themselves!
They stood on the stars, their hands forming mysterious hand seals, perfectly fusing their demonic power with the power of the stars they drew upon!
A colossal net, composed of starlight and demonic power, covering the entire valley's perimeter and enveloping the army of billions of witches, was formed instantly—the Zhou Tian Star Array!
"Oh no! It's a trap!"
Outside the valley, the four ancestral witches, Tianwu, Shebishi, Jumang, and Rushou, had drastic changes in expression!
They were isolated outside the great formation!
Inside the valley, the six Ancestral Witches—Zhu Jiuyin, Gonggong, Zhurong, Qiangliang, Xizi, and Xuanming—along with some of the elite troops they brought in, and the billions of Witch Clan troops outside the valley shrouded in the great formation, were all trapped in this earth-shattering formation!
"kill!"
A murderous glint flashed in Di Jun's eyes, and he issued the final order in a cold voice!
"kill--!"
Taiyi roared, the Chaos Golden Bell vibrated, and the Destruction Bell Wave tore through the void, rushing straight towards the heavily injured Zhurong!
"To avenge our fallen kin!"
Bai Ze waved his feather fan, and countless profound talismans formed chains that entangled Xiang Zhu Jiuyin!
"Witch Clan! Prepare to die!"
With deep-seated hatred, powerful demons such as Ji Meng, Ying Zhao, Fei Lian, and Jiu Ying led hundreds of millions of demon cultivators, whose strength had been greatly increased by the great formation, in a frenzied counterattack against the trapped witch army!
The demon race's purgatory was instantly reversed! The horn of revenge resounded throughout the primordial world!
"kill--!"
Di Jun's command was like a wildfire ignited!
Under the blessing of the Zhou Tian Star Array, countless demon cultivators, like ferocious beasts released from their cages, charged fiercely at the hundreds of millions of witch army shrouded in the array, carrying the deep-seated hatred accumulated over a hundred years!
The witch clan was caught off guard!
They thought victory was assured and were reveling in the thrill of slaughter. Little did they know they would be trapped in such a desperate situation.
The Zhou Tian Star Array isolates the inside from the outside, and the power of stars and demonic power intertwine to form a net, which not only suppresses the evil aura of the Wu Clan, but also makes the strength of the demon cultivators increase several times!
Countless warriors of the Wu tribe fell in droves under the fearless onslaught of the demon cultivators!
Screams, roars, the clash of magical weapons, the tearing of flesh... all intertwined in an instant, creating a symphony of death!
The casualties among the Wu tribe far exceeded the total number of massacres in the previous century!
Damn it!
Inside the valley, Zhu Jiuyin's Eye of Time spun wildly, attempting to reverse local time and save the besieged Wu Clan youths!
However, a flash of light appeared, and Bai Ze, holding a feather fan, used countless profound runes as chains to precisely wrap around Zhu Jiuyin's time law, interfering with and slowing it down!
"Zhu Jiuyin! I am your opponent!"
Bai Ze's voice was cold and his eyes were sharp as knives.
"Go away!"
Gonggong roared, and the blood-red ocean surged with towering waves, attempting to breach a corner of the great formation!
But Ji Meng treads upon water and clouds, his trident stirring up towering, furious waves; Ying Zhao howls with demonic winds; Fei Lian moves with lightning speed; and the nine heads of Jiu Ying spew forth poisonous fire...
Several powerful demons joined forces and managed to repel Gonggong's massive blood-sea wave!
"Roar!"
Qiangliang roared, and destructive lightning condensed into a lightning spear, piercing straight at Dijun!
Taiyi snorted coldly, and the Chaos Golden Bell vibrated!
"clang--!"
A bell rang out!
The invisible sonic wave of destruction arrived first, striking Qiang Liang's lightning spear with pinpoint accuracy!
With a deafening roar, the Thunder Spear shattered inch by inch, and Qiang Liang was also forced to retreat repeatedly!
The extinction grid of Xizi spread silently, and the absolute cold domain of Xuanming froze the void!
However, the demon race was numerous and had the support of a great formation, which managed to hold back the attacks of the two ancestral witches!
Di Jun stood in the center of the Hetu Luoshu, his eyes as cold as ice that had stood for ten thousand years.
He formed a mudra with his hands and uttered a low chant.
"Hetu and Luoshu, suppress them!"
The Hetu and Luoshu scrolls, which blotted out the sky, suddenly trembled!
The illusory images of stars, mountains, and rivers that flowed across it suddenly solidified!
A vast and mighty invisible force, seemingly representing the will of the primordial world, suddenly descended!
This power is not an attack, but pure suppression!
It was as if the entire sky had collapsed, pressing down hard on the six Ancestral Witches trapped in the valley!
"not good!"
The six ancestral witches, Zhujiuyin, Gonggong, Qiangliang, Xizi, Xuanming, and Zhurong, all changed color at the same time!
They felt an unprecedented and terrifying pressure!
This pressure originates from the Way of Heaven, from the primordial origin!
It was Di Jun, with his quasi-saint cultivation, who activated the Hetu Luoshu, a supreme treasure for deduction, and used the power of the primordial world to form the ultimate suppression!
"withstand!"
Zhu Jiuyin roared! All six Ancestral Witches unleashed their power simultaneously!
Zhu Jiuyin's Eye of Time froze the void, slowing down the suppressive force.
Gonggong surged upwards through a sea of blood.
The powerful, destructive lightning tore through the sky.
The law of cutting off the power grid.
The Xuanming Absolute Cold Domain freezes energy.
The blazing fire of Zhurong scorched all things! The six devastating ancestral witch powers combined to confront the immense power of heaven and earth descending from the sky!
A terrifying collision erupted in the void! Laws shattered, and space collapsed!
The entire valley was trembling violently, as if it would turn to dust at any moment!
The ground beneath the feet of the six Ancestral Witches cracked inch by inch, and their million-foot-tall true forms were even slightly bent under the pressure!
The light emanating from the laws governing their bodies fluctuated violently, and even tiny cracks appeared!
A wisp of golden ancestral witch blood slowly oozed from the corner of his mouth!
Even with their combined efforts, they could barely hold on! They were still firmly suppressed by that terrifying power of heaven and earth, unable to move!
"Now!"
Taiyi's eyes flashed with murderous intent!
The Chaos Golden Bell vibrated once more, and the Destruction Bell Waves transformed into an invisible giant blade, tearing through the void and fiercely slashing towards the suppressed Zhu Rong!
Bai Ze waved his feather fan, and countless rune chains, like venomous snakes, coiled around Zhu Jiuyin's Eye of Time!
The powerful demons such as Ji Meng, Ying Zhao, Fei Lian, and Jiu Ying seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and unleashed all sorts of supernatural powers and magical treasures, bombarding the six suppressed Ancestral Witches!
*Pfft!* Zhu Rong was already severely injured, and now, struck by Taiyi Zhongbo's attack, he suffered another deep, bone-revealing wound on his chest, with golden blood gushing out like lava!
Zhu Jiuyin's Eye of Time was disrupted by Bai Ze's runes, causing it to sluggish. He was also hit by several attacks, and with a muffled groan, his aura weakened!
Gonggong, Qiangliang, Xizi, and Xuanming were all injured and, under the suppression of Dijun and the siege of the powerful demons, were forced to retreat one after another, falling into an unprecedented bitter battle!
They possessed devastating power, yet they were relentlessly suppressed and could only passively endure the beatings!
Outside the valley. (End of Chapter)
