It is Emperor Haotian!
Xie Shaoqing’s body jolted, overjoyed, and he blurted out, "Great Emperor, that's wonderful, you're finally awake! The situation is critical now, see that monster? Please, old man, hurry and take action, or all is lost!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed.
Emperor Haotian directly took over Xie Shaoqing's body and looked at the impending battle in the sky, his face solemn.
The three natal spirit pearls had already flown into the sky, the earth was bathed in a snow-white light, and rolling pressure enveloped everyone, also strongly stimulating Xingtian, making it uncomfortable all over.
Spirit pets rushed forward like mad, using self-detonation to unleash devastating attacks before Xingtian. Countless blood ants crawled onto Xingtian's body and gnawed desperately. Although it only made Xingtian feel itchy and numb, it still annoyed him, causing him to stomp his foot.
Boom…
The ground cracked, countless blood ants fell, and were crushed by Xingtian, but more blood ants continued to crawl up, only to be crushed by its foot again.
Gouts of blood rained down from the sky, countless feathers fluttered, and Xingtian, wielding its six arms, strode forward.
It disdained these ants, only giants could pose some threat to it.
Xingtian wanted to kill these things, intense killing intent permeated the air. It grabbed a giant, tore it apart with all its might, easily shredding the giant, and blood poured down like rain.
"Ula! Vare!"
The giants were enraged and charged forward fearlessly, their roars shaking the heavens.
Emperor Haotian's eyes turned bloodshot, his fighting spirit ignited, and he roared, "Bastard, I'll kill you!"
He leaped into the air and charged in front of Xingtian. Just as Xingtian was about to attack him, his figure flickered, and a spiritual light from his palm descended, like a sharp sword aimed at Xingtian's outstretched arm, slashing down.
"To actually…"
The next moment, Emperor Haotian was stunned. He hadn't severed this hand?
His attack, launched with his full cultivation, only managed to cut halfway into Xingtian's arm before it was exhausted. Xingtian trembled in pain, and its other hand fiercely grabbed towards him.
Too close, even Emperor Haotian couldn't evade, and was caught in Xingtian's palm.
"You good-for-nothing Xingtian, daring to offend this Emperor…"
Before he could finish speaking, Emperor Haotian let out a muffled groan, almost unable to withstand the squeeze.
Seeing this, everyone quickly attacked Xingtian.
However, with Emperor Haotian caught in its grasp, Xie Zhuo, worried about his son's safety, controlled the spirit pearls cautiously.
Suddenly, flames erupted from Xingtian’s hand.
Emperor Haotian, like a man on fire, was engulfed in flames, finally forcing Xingtian to open its hand. He then broke free, but instead of escaping, he rushed to Xingtian's shoulder and slashed down with his palm again.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Three streams of spiritual light shot out successively. Emperor Haotian exerted all his might and finally severed one of Xingtian’s arms.
"Act!"
As Emperor Haotian used his last ounce of strength and shouted these words, Xie Zhuo, Madam Yaoguang, and Bai Yanshu reacted immediately, controlling their respective natal spirit pearls and forcing them closer to Xingtian.
"Ah—!" Xie Zhuo roared.
"Hurry!" Madam Yaoguang exclaimed.
Bai Yanshu pointed his sword, controlling his blue natal spirit pearl, and with the other two natal spirit pearls, surrounded Xingtian. The red, white, and blue spirit pearls rotated continuously, like shackles trapping Xingtian’s head, body, and legs, gradually tightening, and the fluctuations grew stronger.
Li Tianjue realized something and said urgently, "Master!"
He knew his master was going to use the explosion of his natal spirit pearl to attack Xingtian, but the natal spirit pearl was the essence of power condensed only by cultivators who had reached the Saint realm. Once it exploded, his master would lose all his cultivation.
At best, he would be crippled; at worst, he would die!
But Bai Yanshu and the other two did not stop, controlling the natal spirit pearls faster and faster.
Su Luo stood on Abu’s shoulder, controlling the Jadeite Sword to attack while her heart was also in her throat. Xingtian was too terrifying. Even with Emperor Haotian’s full effort, combined with the master and the other two sect leaders, plus so many giants and spirit pets attacking simultaneously, it only sustained minor injuries.
Boom!
Suddenly, Madam Yaoguang’s white spirit pearl exploded first.
"Mother!"
Wen Daier cried out in shock, her eyes wide, her mind blank, almost fainting.
At the same time, a dazzling white light flashed, and everyone subconsciously closed their eyes. A powerful impact surged, turning the surrounding spirit pets and blood ants into ashes. Even though they were far away, everyone could not withstand the terrifying aftershock, losing their footing and all bowing down to take cover.
Boom boom!
Then came two more loud explosions. Xie Zhuo and Bai Yanshu also detonated their spirit pearls.
This was bad, something had really happened.
As this thought passed, a violent force struck, and the world instantly changed color, the earth shook and the mountains swayed.
Su Luo tightly gripped Abu's hair, steadying herself so she wouldn't be blown away. The violent shaking made her unable to see her surroundings, and she didn't have time to check on the safety of others. Her eardrums buzzed, and she felt dizzy. Before she could even get close to Xingtian, she was forced to retreat.
The world trembled, and the self-detonation of the three natal spirit pearls left the surroundings desolate.
Snow light, blood red.
It was as if the entire world had been destroyed. Everyone desperately protected themselves, channeling energy to resist the incoming fluctuations. Time seemed to stand still, and everything turned into nothingness.
After an unknown period of time…
Li Tianjue finally regained consciousness and immediately felt the pain emanating from his body, as if every bone had been crushed by immense force, causing unbearable agony. He struggled to lift his head and stand up, only to see a scene of devastation, completely different from before.
Master! Luo Luo!
Li Tianjue was extremely worried about their safety and searched everywhere for them.
The people who were still alive also stood up. Like Li Tianjue, they immediately checked on everyone's safety and whether Xingtian was dead. When a dark, towering figure, like a mountain peak, still stood before them, everyone's hearts sank completely.
Xingtian, it was still here! Could they not kill it even with everyone joining forces?
It was too terrifying.
A low, suppressed roar came. Xingtian was covered in blood, one arm blown off. Blood gushed from the severed limb like spewing crimson lava.
Two swords were inserted into the eyes on its abdomen. It wanted to pull them out in pain, but the moment it touched the sword hilts, the pain was unbearable. Xingtian roared in anger, stomping its feet, and the earth shook again.
Around it, countless spirit pets had died, and the dense red blood ants had also vanished, leaving only a few twitching in the distant crevices.
Before it, dead and injured giants lay scattered on the ground, with severed limbs and broken bodies, a shocking sight.
"Roar—!"
Unable to bear the intense pain, Xingtian wildly swung its arms, grabbing huge rocks around it and throwing them far away.
Rumble rumble rumble…
It had gone completely mad. With one stomp, the injured giants, unable to dodge, were crushed to death on the spot.
Su Luo finally regained consciousness. As soon as she opened her eyes, she heard Xingtian’s roar, saw it rampaging, slaughtering giants, and chasing the escaping survivors in all directions.
