The Eternal Spring Stellar Energy rapidly revitalized the Righteous Alliance experts to peak condition, at the same time healing their wounds.

Boomboomboom!

A few seconds later, the formations of the Righteous Alliance clashed with the men in black.

Above their heads, light flashed and explosions ensued, Stellar Energy blasting into the men in black.

Screams could be heard as seven or eight men in black were instantly slain by Song Yuanyi’s Eternal Spring Mantra.

“Seeking death!”

At almost the same time, Xie Guangting’s eyes coldly gleamed as he entered the fray.

……

Putting aside Song Yuanyi and Xie Guangting, on the left side of the passage, the Five Ancestor Alliance was also under the frenzied assault of the men in black.

But unlike the Righteous Alliance, the Five Ancestor Alliance did not have complicated arrays or tactics. Their method of fighting was simply to fight to the death with all their strength.

Awooooo!

With a heaven-shaking roar, a massive black dragon lunged forward, its long tail striking ten-some men in black and flinging them into the air.

Boom! A dragon claw swiped down, and a man in black, his face stricken with fear, had his Stellar Energy barrier dashed to pieces and his body crushed into pulp without even the chance to dodge.

“Hmph, I’d like to see if you have the skill to kill this old man!”

The Black Yin Ancestor’s cold voice resounded over the battlefield.

Behind him was a cliff, and the Five Ancestor Alliance was already in dire straits. Even a trapped beast would fight, let alone an evil path leader like the Black Yin Ancestor.

As the Black Yin Ancestor began his assault, the earth quaked and another enormous storm of energy appeared.

Raaaaa! Right behind the black dragon was a bone devil thirty to forty meters tall, black smoke coming off its body.

“Bone Devil’s Rage!”

Countless bones suddenly rose from the ground and fused with the right arm of the giant bone devil. These thousands of bones merged together into a giant fist that slammed against the ground.

Rumble! The earth trembled at the impact and the ground sank inward, seeming to be on the verge of completely collapsing.

Men in black screamed, as not even the half–Lu Wus and Black Flame Asuras could stand against the Bone Devil Ancestor’s strike and were crushed to death.

And a deathly energy was also surging forward, seeping into the bodies of the men in black.

It ate away at them until nothing but white bones were left to drop to the ground.

“Bastard!”

The elite experts amongst the men in black who were on par with the three bamboo hat men charged at the Bone Devil Ancestor and the others.

The battle intensified, shouts and the collisions of Stellar Energy ringing out endlessly. In a short while, a bloody fog had gathered in the air while the ground had become covered in corpses.

Even though Song Yuanyi, Xie Guangting, the Black Yin Ancestor, Bone Devil Ancestor, and Myriad Ghost Ancestor, the elders of the righteous and evil paths, and the unaffiliated martial artists were working together, the men in black still had far more strength than the forces of the martial arts world.

Their martial arts were brutal and tyrannical like a wildfire, walking a completely different path from the martial arts of this world.

These righteous and evil experts accustomed to contests with each other were incapable of defending themselves against such bizarre arts.

“It’s time for us to strike!”

Clang! Wang Chong suddenly took two steps forward, raising the Origin Immortal Sword. Immense power was seething within the sword, far more power than Wang Chong had first imagined.

And after his battle with Bagushidu, Wang Chong had grown more proficient with using the Origin Immortal Sword, gradually understanding how best to use it.

“These men in black are truly like maggots clinging to a bone. But it’s about time for us to make our counterattack!”

As Wang Chong looked at the men in black pushing forward, a harsh gleam appeared in his eyes.

He had reached the end of his patience, nor was there a need to continue being patient. His power had returned, his illness was cured, and with the divine sword in hand, he had nothing to fear.

“Master, I give this to you. I got it from the altar. As for the rest, leave it to me!”

Wang Chong threw over the gourd-shaped bottle he had taken from the altar, and then he charged into the battle like an unstoppable god of war.

The moment he stepped forward, the earth trembled and a storm of energy swept out from his body.

Bang!

With a cold flash of light in his eyes, Wang Chong turned into a twisted lightning bolt and vanished.

Boomboomboom!

One hundred feet away, a violet streak as thin as a hair appeared for a brief moment. Boom! Boom! Boom! The Origin Immortal Sword swept in a long arc through the air, unleashing a series of explosions that blasted apart all the men in black in its path.

In this brief moment, the men in black had lost ten-some experts, and this was only the beginning…

“Aaaaah!”

Without any warning, men in black who had been slaughtering the martial artists and battling with the righteous and evil experts suddenly cried out in panic. Their bodies trembled uncontrollably, and most uncontrollable of all was their Stellar Energies.

Boom! Their energies flowed like rivers merging into the sea. Even those Black Flame Asuras wrapped in the Fire of Mara could not prevent their Stellar Energies from breaking out of their bodies and joining the flow that converged on Wang Chong’s body.

Thudthudthud!

The men in black began to shrivel up and fall to the ground, their cultivations completely absorbed by Wang Chong.

The Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art!

Now that Wang Chong had recovered his power, he could once more display the might of the number one evil art, and its strength had risen to a whole new level.

Rumble! A great storm howled around Wang Chong, exerting an immense pull.

With the help of the Origin Immortal Sword’s vast might, Wang Chong was able to boost his Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art to the Subtle realm, and its power had been substantially increased.

Thudthudthud!

The men in black screamed, their bodies wreathed in black smoke as they dropped.

“Bastard!”

The third bamboo hat man, who was using the Greater Void Step to traverse the battlefield like a ghost and slaughter all in his path, suddenly turned his head, his eyes cold.

“Ha, it’s you! You actually dared to show yourself!”

The third bamboo hat man’s eyes gleamed with wicked sharpness. He had noticed Wang Chong upon first reaching the core, but as the three Immortals were present, the bamboo hat man had not dared to act recklessly. But attacking now was an entirely different matter.

This time, Wang Chong would not be able to escape his grasp!

“If you want to die, I’ll fulfill your wish!”

Clang!

There was a shrill metallic howl as the third bamboo hat man vanished into the void. Pa! A thin whip, as sharp as a saber, emerged from the depths of the void, slicing through the air as it flew at Wang Chong.

The third bamboo hat man’s metal whip had a powerful Stellar-Piercing ability. It could tear through a martial artist’s Stellar Energy and tear them in half.

“Hmph!”

Wang Chong suddenly smiled. This was not his first encounter with this man in black, as this was the one who had pursued him into the underground river. At that time, Wang Chong had been very weak and he had been in danger of triggering his cultivation defect, so he had been forced to avoid a battle.

But that was then and this was now. Even Bagushidu had died to him, let alone this bamboo hat man.

“Just what I wanted!”

Wang Chong’s lips curved into a smile, and then he shot forward, going on the offensive.

Bang!

Even before Wang Chong vanished, he had sent out his immense Psychic Energy, which now savagely struck the hidden third bamboo hat man.

The Greater Void Step was much faster than the Void Movement Technique Wang Chong had obtained, meaning that Wang Chong would not be able to compete with him when it came to speed.

But unfortunately for the third bamboo hat man, Wang Chong had no need to go through all that trouble.

His tangible Psychic Energy far surpassed that of a Subtle realm expert, so the third bamboo hat man’s Greater Void Step was of no use against him.

“Ah!”

There was an explosion in the void, and then a cry of alarm. A violet lightning bolt flashed through the air, striking the third bamboo hat man with sheer destructive might.

Bang!

While the surrounding people were still trying to understand what was going on, the third bamboo hat man screamed and was sent flying like a ragdoll.

Bang! He smashed into the cave wall ten-some meters behind him.

Large slabs of rock accompanied by great clouds of dust came down. The frightening power in Wang Chong’s single strike had blasted the third bamboo hat man deep into the cave wall.

“Bastard!”

The bamboo hat leader, who had already transformed into the thirty-some-meter-tall Yellow Scarf Warrior, now fiercely turned his head. As he turned around, countless stones fell around him, all Stellar Energy that he had converted into rock.

At his feet were the scattered bodies of lifeless martial artists, their eyes vacant.
