Invincible Immortal Cultivator in the City-Chapter 574 - 573: Both Sides Suffer
Chapter 574: Chapter 573: Both Sides Suffer
This old man, he’s ruthless!
With just one step taken forward, it was as if a giant thunderbolt rolled in from the horizon, Lin Hao felt his own heart trembling from the invisible thunder this step prompted.
The cold wind was biting, and the aura of killing permeated, tension filled the air beneath the city walls.
"Long live the Ancestor, long live, long, long live!"
Around him, those Gu Country Soldiers had already formed their ranks, each one full of respect, kneeling down towards the elder, shouting long live in unison.
The Ancestor of Gu Country?
Lin Hao took a deep breath, his gaze revealing that the Gu Country Soldiers, who were originally prepared to trap the area with the Heavy Shield Formation, had now abandoned the formation, instead lining up in the distant surroundings as onlookers.
With the Ancestor of Gu Country stepping forward, they felt no need for military formations to deal with just one person.
In the hearts of these people from Gu Country, they were assured to win, and Lin Hao was assured to die!
Lin Hao’s face grew darker and colder, but at this moment, his mind was as calm as still water.
Surrender?
That, of course, was out of the question, but how does one break out of this predicament?
Difficult...
However difficult it might be, it wasn’t without a solution, just that the solution was too risky.
Having reached this point, Lin Hao must take this risk despite the danger.
Silence, wave after wave of silence.
Lin Hao, holding his breath, Concentrating, stood against the wind. The Ancestor of Gu Country let out cold laughs, his momentum growing ever fiercer.
Finally, the Ancestor of Gu Country’s patience was exhausted, his expression turned fierce, he took one step forward, speaking coldly:
"It seems you choose death over submission? This Old Master admires your courage. Since that’s the case, today I shall grant your wish."
As his voice fell, the figure moved!
The Ancestor of Gu Country let out a long howl, his entire being transformed into a stream of light, charging towards Lin Hao like a meteor.
"Whoosh!"
This was a rare Combat Skill, originally belonging to the Divine World, but the Ancestor of Gu Country had already come infinitely close to Godhood, and now exerting it shook the heavens and moved the spirits.
The light cleaved through the void, emitting a sharp Sky-breaking sound, enveloping Lin Hao within it.
And at that moment, Lin Hao moved too! fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
His body also emitted a profound and mysterious power.
At the same time.
"Look quickly, what is that in the sky!"
"What is this thing!"
"Rainbow thunderclouds! It’s thunderclouds!!!"
Above the sky, a destructive aura was transmitted, the Gu Country Soldiers looked up one after another, only to see a colossal, oppressive thundercloud appear above their heads out of nowhere.
Rainbow thunderclouds!
The thundercloud rotated like a cosmic nebula, the rotating center point corresponding precisely to Lin Hao’s position.
Within that thundercloud, streaks of rainbow lightning, like serpentine tongues, continuously tore through the sky.
Instantly.
"Crackle!"
A rainbow lightning as thick as a water bucket descended from the heavens, striking directly at the spot where Lin Hao stood.
Simultaneously, a pressure like the will of heaven and earth descended from above, and in that instant, it was like the end of the world!
The sounds of torrential rain, the lightning having only struck halfway when below, tens of thousands of Gu Country Soldiers couldn’t withstand the immense heavenly might, all trembling uncontrollably, involuntarily lying prostrate on the ground.
"Boom!!"

The colossal colored lightning descended from the sky, dreamlike and surreal. In an instant, just as he transformed into a streak of light rushing in front of Lin Hao, ready to kill and plunder, the ancient ancestor of Gu Country’s face drastically changed.
He had never seen such power before.
In that instant, he felt that standing opposite him in battle wasn’t a person, but an entire world, all of nature, the whole universe!
How is this possible!
The ancient ancestor of Gu Country had been in the Upper Realm for many years and had never encountered such power.
At that moment, he wanted to retreat!
But where was there any opportunity? No matter how strong a person is, can they be stronger than the Plane Law?
With an explosion, the ancient ancestor of Gu Country and Lin Hao were both enveloped in a light that seemed to herald the end of the world. Lightning struck the ground, sending stones flying, and the sand and rocks scattered. The nearby Gu Country soldiers, who were already subdued by that powerful aura, were directly lifted into the air, soaring into the sky.
Those close by were turned to ash by the thunderbolt, scattering everywhere.
Countless deaths and injuries occurred in an instant, and even the powerful Gu Country soldiers were too shocked to open their eyes.
A single thunderbolt had the power to devastate both heaven and earth, making the whole ground tremble.
A full quarter of an hour passed before the world gradually became quiet again.
Sand and rocks flew, and many Gu Country soldiers fell from the sky, leaving the ground in complete disarray.
The place struck by the lightning was charred black within a hundred-meter radius.
Is it over?
The surviving Gu Country soldiers were terrified and pale.
It took a while before they dared to raise their heads. Looking around, each looked like a ghost who had just escaped from the fires of Hell, only relaxing after realizing there was no danger.
"Ancestor! Where is the Ancestor!!"
Suddenly, someone cried out, and with that shout, the soldiers of Gu Country sweated profusely, their faces pale as dirt. After a brief moment of stunned silence, they ran frantically towards the direction of the lightning strike.
The place struck by the lightning now had a bottomless pit. The pit wasn’t large, just deep, with no bottom in sight when looking down.
Where is the Ancestor?
The Gu Country soldiers widened their eyes, completely unable to believe what had just happened.
Suddenly, from below the deep pit, a voice emerged, and someone climbed up from below.
Everyone was stunned and then became tense. Before they had time to recover, a figure flashed by, and the Gu Country ancestor emerged from the pit.
His face was disheveled; his clothes were all burned to ashes; even many of his body hairs had turned black as if he were a survivor who had just escaped from a fire.
Outside the Imperial City, there was a dead silence.
Everyone watched the Gu Country ancestor climb out in anger, those aged eyes seemingly having lost their supreme brilliance, leaving only fury and remorse.
Angry about what? Remorseful for what?
What about the other person?!
For a moment, all Gu Country soldiers were shocked, considering an impossible possibility!
Yet, no one knew what had happened before, nor did they know where Lin Hao was.
But after the Gu Country ancestor had climbed out of the pit, he said nothing and looked up at the sky, his eyes deep and flickering with complex expressions.
After a long silence, the Gu Country ancestor said nothing and turned to walk toward the Imperial City.
Indeed, walk!
Everyone was stunned!
Arriving like rolling thunder, descending from the sky in a blink of an eye, but leaving like a destitute and lonely old man!
Outside the Imperial City, there was another dead silence, and no one knew why the Gu Country ancestor had ended up like this. Everyone wanted to know what exactly had happened after that colorful lightning had struck.
Without a word, the soldiers parted to make way, staring blankly as the Gu Country ancestor walked step by step into the Imperial City until his figure disappeared, with no one daring to move an inch.
It was unknown how much time had passed before the Gu Country soldiers outside the city felt the air again, each looking at the other, all perplexed.
"Report to His Majesty."
After a while, the Garrison General finally regained his composure, ordering the scene to be sealed off as he quickly walked towards the Imperial Palace.
