Chapter 669 - War
Lady Su's Revenge
Unexpectedly, Fang Huaji received the thunder for testing into his hands. Did a Great Emperor... have such a powerful strength?
With a cold snort, Fang Huaji drew opening a round portal with his right hand and then threw the light in his grip into it, âI donât dare to accept this âgreat giftâ. Here you are.â
As soon as Fang Huaji finished speaking, a round portal appeared above the Fate Palace. The violent thunder blasted down, but it directly dissipated into the air when approaching the Fate Palace.
Fang Huaji coldly snorted at this and didnât care at all.
âEveryone, my refining weapons are under your feet. As long as you are willing to fight for the Qingshui Circle, you can take up them. Mortals can kill practitioners in the Zhuji Realm with them! Practitioners in the Zhuji Realm can kill the ones in the Jindan Realm with them! By analogy, if you are in natureâs test, you can even join forces to kill a Junior Emperor. The spirituality in my blood net is the cornerstone for you to use spiritual weapons!â
At the moment when Fang Huajiâs voice spread throughout the Qingshui Circle, all living beings who had some understanding of the cultivation circle were in a state of utter shock.
Mortals were the most numerous in the whole Qingshui Circle!
What a great feat it was to give every mortal the strength to fight with a cultivator!
Hearing Fang Huajiâs plan at the moment, even Bai Su couldnât help but freeze there without a word for a long time.
âHow can one tolerate others encroaching on his preserve?
âAs long as you guys volunteer to take up weapons, our power will be far superior to Bai Moâs!â
...
At this moment, living beings in every region gradually focused their eyes on the blood-red veins under their feet, whether they were mortals or practitioners.
Instead of panic, they were full of fierce fighting spirit!
Finally, an aged grand elder took out a weirdly-shaped spiritual spear from the blood-red veins. The moment he touched the spear, he understood its usage, and his cloudy eyes lit up.
âI would risk death for the Qingshui Circle!â
81 regions in the Qingshui Circle rose in rebellion at the same time. Countless practitioners surged toward the teleporting matrixes, and even countless mortals made bold to join them.
âCrazy... they are all crazy!â
Someone didnât want to take up weapons and muttered with a frightened look, âHow can a mortal be a match for a practitioner? The old fox behind this idea is a madman!â
But no matter how hard he tried to dissuade, the only young mortal who could see supernormal hope and was full of fantasy still entered the teleporting matrix without looking back.
Bai Su turned white and said in a trembling voice, âItâs gonna kill a lot of people. Both mortals and practitioners will die! Fang Huaji, youâre not saving but worsening the Qingshui Circle!â
âHow can there be no deaths in a war?â
Fang Huaji remained cold and averted his eyes, âA naive man like you is not destined to succeed. I am the real candidate for the revenge of the Qingshui Palace.â
Bai Su was stuck dumb and choked with grief, âEven though itâs hatred, you shouldnât harm the innocent. Fang Huaji, youâre... really a lunatic devil.â
âWithout being lunatic, I wouldnât have become a devil.â
Fang Huaji gazed through the space and seemed to see the constant flashing light of the teleporting matrix, âA long time ago, I said I only cared about revenge and nothing else.â
In the Fate Palace, the lord of the Shengtian Shrine and others were finally summoned by Bai Ming.
âYou guys should also see the Tianhe Sectâs big move.â
Bai Ming picked his fingernails and looked up with a smile, âItâs interesting. Fang Huaji came up with this idea.â
âYour Excellency the Fate Ancestor, how do we deal with it?â The lord of the Shengtian Shrine, Ling Kun stepped forward and asked initiatively. Recently, he always felt that Bai Ming gave him a very odd attitude, but he couldnât describe it.
âKill him!â
Bai Ming changed his hand movements. He crossed his hands and swept his sharp eyes over the leaders of the top three holy sects, âThis time, the Huangxing Hall and the Ankui Valley will be auxiliaries, while Ling Kun, you will be the commander-in-chief. The Shengtian Shrineâs position is worth it.â
Ling Kun shook with shock, and his eyes lit up. He hurried to kneel, âI dare not. I will obey Your Excellencyâs order and fight with all my might!â
âThen go to assemble your men. With Fang Huajiâs agitation, you donât have much time to prepare.â
âYes!â
Qu Liancheng listened aside in silence and pondered, âBai Ming really wants to ruin the whole Shengtian Shrine in the war, but what is his purpose?â
In just a few hours, more and more practitioners and mortals appeared in the Holy Region. The Tianhe Sect had long made preparations to put all elders in charge of the army. Every elder was in natureâs test, and due to their hold of the spiritual weapons in the blood-red veins now, they were like Junior Emperors enough to lead an army of practitioners.
A war broke out unsurprisingly!
In the center of the Qingshui Circle, also the plain between the top four holy sects, there was a rumble of fighting and wholesale slaughter.
In the beginning, the war was in a stalemate. But as more and more reinforcements came from 81 regions, and the mortalsâ spiritual weapons could attack practitioners in the Zhuji Realm from a distance to kill them in one blow, the army led by the Shengtian Shrine had a surge in casualties and couldnât hold on.
Ling Kun calculated casualties every day and was very upset about it. They couldnât take the spiritual weapons in the blood-red veins, so their overall strength was much lower. If this went on, they would be all killed by the army of the Tianhe Sect within one month!
By the time the attacking army reached the gate of the Fate Palace, even if he died ten thousand times, it would not atone for his crime!
âEvery practitioner of our Shengtian Shrine has survived among many corpses and is nothing difficult in fighting 10 enemies alone. Why are we so vulnerable?â
This was what puzzled Ling Kun the most, but he looked around and couldnât find anyone to investigate the matter.
âLing Li...â
Ling Kun cast his gloomy eyes at the bloody-soaked theatre of war and fell into silence for a long time.
Flames of war had been raging for half a year.
By the third month, the Ankui Valley and the Huangxing Hall all appeared to attend the war with 17 great holy sects.
At this moment, Qu Lianchengâs poison finally broke out. The blood?poison began to spread. For every death in the Shengtian Shrine, dozens or even more practitioners would be killed. The situation was reversed little by little.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
27 sects couldnât wait to attend the war regardless of Bai Suâs warning! Then the Fate Palaceâs side was once again suppressed and beaten.
The flames of war became more even raging and dyed the whole Qingshui Circle red. Countless living beings died every day.
In the empty hall, Bai Ming looked at the image emerging in the small golden tower, and his smile grew wilder.
âThatâs good. Fang Huaji, youâre really my helper!â
With a cheerful smile, Bai Ming stood up and straightened his clothes. A silent hole gaped beneath the small golden tower. He stepped down and walked for a long while.
Finally, a huge fiery Circle Nucleus came into view. Sensing Bai Mingâs arrival, a ferocious human face immediately appeared on the fiery Circle Nucleus, and a scream of hatred echoed through the space.
âAn inferior clan is trying to devour the Circle Clan. Our clan wonât spare you!â
Bai Ming looked at the human face happily, âDo you see? The living beings you bred are killing each other and going to extinction, while your natural law will be under my control and obedient to destroy all those who started this war.â
At this point, Bai Ming clenched his palm. Then black âinkâ poured into the void slowly soaking the Circle Nucleus, which made it difficult for the human face to appear.
âBai Mo! You wonât succeed. No way!â
The Circle Nucleus barely maintained its form and shouted in a crazy voice, âYouâve forgotten the special being you brought with you. She is your nemesis, but you are afraid of me getting out of the trap and donât dare to leave here for a long time. Thatâs your biggest weakness, Su Li... her background is far beyond your imagination. Youâll fail... youâll definitely fail!â
âSo noisy.â
Bai Ming kept a poker face and clenched his palm. Immediately, the Circle Nucleus uttered a heartrending cry, and its human face collapsed.
âI seem to be crazy to have thought that you would beg me for mercy and offer up your life nucleus. Itâs nothing...â
Bai Ming turned away.
âWhen I destroy 90% of the foundation of this circle, you will collapse, and the Chimo Circle will also be destroyed. Then I can harvest two Circle Nucleuses at a time. Thatâs enough to replenish my losses...â
Time passed relentlessly in the flames of war. It turned into the ninth month of the war under tragic circumstances.
On one day of this month, Fang Mu raised his head numbly with scarlet eyes but found no one to kill in front of him.
âDid we... win?â
He muttered in a daze and choked up while looking at the blood-red surroundings.
There was no winner in this war.
Lots of people had died. Many elders of the Tianhe Sect he was familiar with were killed in front of him. Even the grand elders of 27 sects were mostly dead because of the blood poison suicide bomber thrown out by the Fate Palace.
At this moment, Fang Mu stretched his thinking instead.
He kept wondering where his big brother was now?
âReorganize our forces. Sadness canât change anything, so we should destroy the Fate Palace in one fell swoop!â
Fang Huajiâs sonorous voice came, âNow listen to my command. Go to the Fate Palace and win the war at one blow!â
âNo need.â
A voice suddenly came from the sky, âFang Huaji, Iâll allow you to die in your own sect out of kindness, okay?â
A white figure appeared from the distorted space and stood not far in front of Fang Huaji. The face gradually became clear. It was none other than Bai Ming.
Bai Su sighed and closed his eyes.
Was the picture in his previous divination about to appear?
The dialogue between the two sides spread the whole Qingshui Circle through the blood-red veins. In this instant, the remaining practitioners converged towards the Tianhe Sect at once.
âBai Mo, have you finally stopped being a coward?â
At the sight of Bai Ming, Fang Huaji gave an increasing murderous look, âToday is your day of death!â
Bai Ming tilted his head and smiled at Fang Huaji, âNo, Iâm here today specifically to thank you.â
Fang Huaji snorted coldly, âDo you think I will believe your story?â
âBelieve it or not.â
Bai Mingâs expression was casual and pleasant, âNow that your mission is complete, you shall die.â
Fang Huajiâs eyes suddenly turned red, and his robe melted into residue shadows.
Bai Ming didnât dodge and uttered softly, âDestroy Thunder.â
Boom!
Millions of pure black thunder tilted down from the sky without warning. In just an instant, the gate of the Tianhe Sect turned into fly dust with the mountains.
Only its area was protected by Fang Huaji and just turned into ruins instead of powder.
âDestroy Thunder?â
Bai Su sat aside with a face of vicissitudes and looked at the black thunder felling in a daze.
This was his second witness to the Destroy Thunder.
Nine months had passed. Bai Suâs black hair returned to white and his face wrinkled like the furrowed bark.
Besides, his use of astrology had shortened his life, so he would die of old age after a few moments.
