The destruction shadow flicked his middle finger gently.
Ding!
There was the soft sound of metal colliding. The giant ax shattered and exploded.
Two beams of black light shot out from the eye sockets of the destruction shadow, enveloping the middle-aged Martial Sage. It seemed slow but was actually fast, filled with the murderous intent of Heavenly Tao.
“Trap them!”
The middle-aged Martial Sage’s complexion did not change. A streak of black light flew out of his sleeve, releasing a powerful suction force, directly absorbing the two dark lights with the murderous intent of Heavenly Tao.
“Eh?”
The destruction shadow let out a cry of surprise.
“Interesting. How could a mere three-apertured Martial Sage counter my strike?”
As he raised his head, dozens of black light shot out of his eye sockets, continuing to envelop the middle-aged Martial Sage.
But the same thing happened again.
No one knew what was inside that sleeve of the middle-aged Martial Sage. It engulfed and trapped dozens of murderous black beams of light in one go, as if it was their natural nemesis.
“I understand now. You must have a Divine Artifact with you! Which one of the Three Great Divine Artifacts is that? Give it to me now!” The destruction shadow sounded serious.
In a flash, he appeared in front of the middle-aged Martial Sage, clawing at him with an outstretched hand.
This move contained the strange power of the rules, making one think he could not dodge it.
The middle-aged Martial Sage’s complexion changed. Dozens of black beams shot out from his sleeve, bombarding the palm of the destruction shadow. His body retreated at lightning speed, and he managed to dodge his attack.
“Why isn’t anyone attacking yet? Are you guys waiting for him to pick you apart, one by one?”
The middle-aged Martial Sage shouted.
The next moment—
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Both Qi and Demonic Aura surged out. A dozen gusts of aggressive Qi power burst out at the same time.
The Demon Saints from the Demon Clan and the Martial Sages from the Human Clan chose to attack at the same time, unleashing their most brutal power.
The destruction shadow was so powerful that these masters at the Sage Realm felt the threat of death.
Moreover, this terrifying presence who was controlling the ghoul army had made it clear from the start that he would not let anyone off. So neither the Demon Clan nor the Human Clan had any excuse to retreat.
These Sages and Saints, who had experienced countless battles and dangers, knew that they would be killed if they fought separately and did not join forces.
“Haha, are these vermin going to join forces?”
The destruction shadow did not take them seriously. All around his body, a dark destructive aura was swirling, expanding into a gray light barrier that shielded him. No matter how much Sage or Saint power smashed into it, it would resist that sturdily.
Swoosh!
He raised his hand, releasing a black beam of light.
“Urghhh…”
A Great Saint of the Demon Clan was hit, with half his body smashed. He spat out blood and was thrown backward.
“Don’t hold anything back. Let’s go all out!”
“Kill him!”
When the Sages and Saints saw this, they were shocked. All of them unleashed their most brutal power. Some even activated their Holy Weapons. The Great Saints of the Demon Clan all showed their true forms. The bodies of these strange exotic beasts were as imposing as mountains, their Demon Aura overwhelming the sky and the sun.
“Haha, even if you vermin join hands, you’re still just vermin!”
The destruction shadow laughed loudly.
Although besieged, he still seemed very relaxed, sauntering leisurely amidst the raging attacks. Now and then, he would raise his hand and release a black beam of light filled with the murderous intent of Heavenly Tao. A Martial Sage would be thrown backward, vomiting blood.
This scene was simply too horrific.
The other experts of the Human and the Demon Clans had to retreat quickly. Even a slight remnant wave from this fight could instantly shatter a Martial Grand Emperor. They could not help at all.
The Martial Sage experts, who were usually exalted and dominating over all living creatures, were in danger of dying at any time in such a fight.
Countless people were left dumbfounded, watching the battle from afar.
Could that destruction shadow be a god-level presence? He was simply incredible, to be able to withstand the combined attacks of so many Martial Sage experts.
As they watched this battle, the hearts of many were in their mouths.
If so many Martial Sage experts could not overcome that destruction shadow, the experts of the two clans in the Towering Buddha Pagoda would be all wiped out!
Ding Hao also felt his senses soar upon seeing this.
It was the first time he had witnessed such a fierce fight.
He could not tell the strength and realm of that destruction shadow, but he couldn’t be a god-level master, could he?
Boom!
Another Demon Saint expert was sent flying.
The destruction shadow unleashed the black beam of light with its terrifying power. None of the Sage masters could parry the attack head-on. The current situation did not favor the two clans.
Bam!
A lotus-shaped Holy Weapon had shattered into pieces. A Martial Sage of the Human Clan who was controlling the weapon vomited blood. Cracks appeared on his body, like those in a piece of porcelain.
“Haha, a bunch of vermin. I’m no longer interested in playing games with you.”
The destruction shadow shook his head, looking bored.
There were more than 20 masters at the Sage or Saint Realm from the two clans, but none had interested him. This fight was simply a game that was beginning to bore him.
“Humph, you’re only a seven-apertured Sage. Unless you’re at the God Realm, your body will eventually decay!” The bronze-skinned Martial Sage shouted coldly.
He had borne most of the attacks from the destruction shadow. He was the only one who could just intercept the man’s black beam of light. That black light he kept releasing from his sleeve had intercepted many attacks at the critical moment.
“Once I kill you all, I will reach the God Realm!”
The destruction shadow snickered.
The experts of the two clans who entered the Sacred Hall ruins were basically low-level Sages and Saints. Even the most powerful among them had only reached the three-apertured level. He was still four intervals below the level of the destruction shadow. For Sages, each small interval was significant. Yet this middle-aged Martial Sage could shout out his true level. The destruction shadow felt a little surprised.
This bronze-skinned fellow was the only one he could not figure out among all the experts of the two clans. He seemed to be hiding something.
He decided not to delay any longer.
Boom!
With a burst of brutal power, an aura of death and destruction suddenly emanated in all directions. Suddenly, two black beams of light shot out of his pupilless eyes like divine swords of annihilation.
His power was extremely violent this time, as if it was from Hell. Wherever the beams of light passed, a dark slit would appear in the void. Two Great Demon Saints and a Human Martial Sage leading the charge were devoured into his eyes by those black beams of light…
“What kind of divine power is this?”
All the experts at the Sage Realm were scared out of their wits and immediately dodged.
It was simply too horrific!
The moment the black beams of light appeared, they could clearly smell the stench of death. It was as if Death’s scythe had gently hooked their necks. If the scythe was drawn even a little, they would all be dead.
“All of you, die! Accept eternal life!”
The destruction shadow bellowed coldly. Whoever his face looked, a black beam of light would descend on that man. Death would soon follow.
The void shattered.
Another two experts at the Sage Realm had been devoured into his eyes.
The two black beams of light were like the roads to Hell. Whoever they touched, that person would die.
“Run!”
“Masters in the Sage Realm have been defeated…”
“It’s over…”
“Where can we run to? We’re dead for sure!”
“It’s a trap! These ruins must be a trap!”
“Where are the Three Great Divine Artifacts? Only the Divine Artifacts can defeat him now!”
“How did it turn out this way?”
The minds of everyone went blank. The scenes before them were simply too incredible. Even the last hope of the two clans—the Sages and Saints—were being slaughtered like chickens and dogs, destroying their faith completely!
“D*mn it! Let’s work together to block this light of death!”
The bronze-skinned middle-aged Martial Sage shouted.
He was still resisting.
But now, almost no one would listen to him. In the face of death, even absolute experts at the Sage Realm could not muster up enough courage to fight again. They immediately fled from the battlefield…
Yue Tianxing was the first Martial Sage to run.
He had almost been hit by the black light beam of death. The strong threat of death had made him flustered. He turned around and fled into the crowds. So much for righteous valor!
The next moment, Luo Guantian, Wei Wubing, and the others also gave up the fight.
The Demon Saints also retreated.
The divine power displayed by the destruction shadow was beyond what they could resist.
“Hahaha, stop fighting. No one can escape from my Netherworld Transfer…” The destruction shadow chuckled lightly.
He turned his head and looked at the Human Clan’s camp.
The lethal light beams of the Netherworld Transfer shot into the crowd.
“No…” Dozens of Human Clan experts cried in terror and were sucked into the black beams of light and the dark eye sockets of the destruction shadow.
His target was still the Martial Sages.
“D*mn it!”
Yue Tianxing’s expression changed into one of horror. He could sense himself targeted by the deadly light beam of Netherworld Transfer. In a moment of desperation, he hit out his palms and sent four or five human experts flying, using them to block the black light beam streaking toward him!
“Sect Leader Yue, you…” someone exclaimed in disbelief.
“It’s an honor to die for me!” Yue Tianxing showed his grotesque face and no longer hid his ugly intentions. As he spoke, he grabbed another five or six human experts and threw them at the black beam of light!
Every time it hit a target, the black light beam of the Netherworld Transfer would freeze for a moment.
Its brief pause gave Yue Tianxing the only chance to dodge and escape.
After betraying his fellows a few times, he finally went out of the target range of the Netherworld Transfer. The scent of death, which had terrified him so much, finally ebbed away a little.
“Yue Tianxing, you hypocrite, are you… crazy?!”
Many experts of the Human Clan, who had lost their disciples and relatives, shouted at him in shock and indignation. They had never dreamed that the Aloof Man, esteemed as a gentleman on the Divine Central Continent, would be so despicable at this critical moment!
