"Kill!"

"Kill, kill, kill!!!"

Suddenly, Jia Zhenjing led everyone in a thunderous roar, transforming into a swift wind, rushing towards the head of the Heavenly Punishment Alliance...

"Kill, kill, kill!!!"

Over five hundred people from the South Heavenly Gate followed Jia Zhenjing with a fierce shout. Immediately, thousands from the Heavenly Punishment Alliance, under the leadership of the Divine Sky Sect and the Taishang Sect, surged in like an angry sea, rolling in waves. Facing this ferocity, the mind of every warrior from the South Heavenly Gate was filled only with thoughts of killing.

"Haha! Today, I’m going to slaughter to my heart’s content! Come on, Heavenly Punishment Alliance!"

Whoosh~

The old man charged out first, wielding a broadsword, wings sprouting from his shoulders. Wrapped in his own barrier, he glided through the void like a purple light ball...

"Count me in too!"

Unwilling to be left behind, Meng Chanji smiled, also gliding with wings sprouting from her shoulders. Following her, familiar figures like Beiming Yu, Jia Zhenjing, Zhan Long, Chen Bubai, Phantom, Black Hawk, Bu Chen, Huo Zhengfeng... all charged into the Heavenly Punishment Alliance laughing loudly.

With reckless slaughter, everyone ignored thoughts of personal life and death.

"Kill all from the South Heavenly Gate!!!"

Shen Kong from the Divine Sky Sect had cold, sinister light in his eyes, holding a weapon the size of a toothpick in his palm. With a flash of light, a sharp long spear appeared in his hand, and then he vanished from his spot, engaging in battle with the descending Meng Chanji!

"Clang!"

Sparks flashed, and light dazzled. Meng Chanji wielded a pitch-black Crescent Moon Curved Blade, its entire body pitch black, the blade flashing with an eerie glint. It crashed against the long spear in Shen Kong’s hand, instantly erupting with an astonishing power.

"What’s with the dodging? Aren’t you bold?"

After a collision, Shen Kong retreated a step, displeasing Meng Chanji. She twirled the Crescent Moon Curved Blade around her wrist, then unleashed it towards the crowd.

"Puff, puff, puff..." Blood splattered as all the cultivators of the Heavenly Punishment Alliance who faced the Crescent Moon Curved Blade were immediately slashed~

"Break!"

With a deafening roar, Beiming Yu made her move. This woman, like a demon, charged into the crowd, her knees slightly bent, an ancient zither before her. Her slender fingers intertwined like a Spiritual Snake. As the zither strings resonated, an invisible energy surged with the movement of the strings.

Almost no one could approach her...

"Slash!"

In a robe of white, Taihuang Demon swept across with Dual Swords. Where the two powerful Sword Qi passed, long sword pits immediately appeared on the hard ground. Then the two streaks of Sword Qi swept towards Beiming Yu.

Taihuang Demon, a demoness, and Beiming Yu, too, was a demoness. Both had been renowned figures for a long time. One was full of mystery, while the other was the future inheritor of the Taishang Sect.

The fierce battle between the two demonesses was something no one dared to approach.

"Boom, boom, boom~"

Whoosh~ Beiming Yu soared into the sky with the ancient zither. Taihuang Demon refused to fall behind, pressing closely with Dual Swords. The two skimmed across the sky, finally landing in a lush green wood, soon vanishing without a trace.

However...

The lush forest of several hundred meters seemed to be lifted by some energy, trembling and fluctuating... As that power finally exploded, the entire forest was destroyed by the two!

"Boy! Weren’t you going to duel me? Now I’m giving you this chance!"

Jia Zhenjing locked onto Shen Kong of the Divine Sky Sect, the kid who at Wolong Mountain’s mid-mountain had declared he wanted to duel Jia Zhenjing, only to find himself outmatched and beset.

Now, no one could help him anymore.

"Whoosh!"

Unexpectedly, after glancing at Jia Zhenjing, Shen Kong turned and fled.

"Trying to run?" Jia Zhenjing smiled; how could his locked target escape so easily? 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Swish~" Meanwhile, Desolate from the Great Wilderness Holy Land stepped forward with a bow inscribed with dragon and phoenix patterns, drawing and aiming seamlessly at Jia Zhenjing’s back.

"Buzz"

The bowstring quivered softly as a dark light swiftly pierced the sky like a Divine Rainbow.

"Not good!"

Nangong Shui noticed the anomaly, swiftly pouncing forward, his steps like lightning, charging like the wind.

"Father!"

Nangong Bing shouted loudly. At present, everyone from the Heavenly Punishment Alliance and South Heavenly Gate was locked in battle, with no one able to escape.

Zhang Xixi, Mu Yang, and Yu guarded Nangong Bing, preventing her from getting caught in the fray.

"Puff!"

Blood soared. Phantom severed a head with the Fine Copper Cold Blade, only to feel a sharp pain in her back. Turning, she found a streak of Powerful Light had injured her back, enraging Phantom, but her cultivation was too weak.

Against the cultivators of major sects, she was simply outclassed.

"Boom!"

"Ah..."

Screams erupted as Zhan Long and Chen Bubai joined the fray, quickly shielding Phantom.

Zhan Long’s eyes flashed dark light, shouting loudly, "Get out of here! Stay, and you’ll die!"

"No! I want to fight alongside you all!"

Phantom’s eyes glowed with unyielding determination. She had resolved to endure hardship with the South Heavenly Gate. Even in death, she found it worthwhile, feeling Lin Zifeng would at least remember, perhaps even miss her.

"Fight alongside? You even want to fight alongside us? It’d be enough if you weren’t a burden!"

Chen Bubai’s ever-cold face broke into a smile, irritating Phantom.

"Don’t be reckless! You’ll only burden us. Quickly take Miss Nangong away!"

Zhan Long knew her resolve and didn’t argue further. Instead, he sent a blast with his right hand, the Divine Rainbow sweeping Phantom several meters out of the battle circle...

"Take her away!"

Zhan Long shouted.

Upon landing, Phantom saw the battlefield clearly, a scene of horrific bloodshed. Countless had already paid dearly for the words South Heavenly Gate!

"Miss Nangong, let’s go!"

Clenching her teeth, Phantom turned resolutely, grasped Nangong Bing’s wrist, attempting to lead her from the battle zone.

"No! I won’t leave!"

Nangong Bing wrench-free of Phantom’s grip.

However, the battle grew ever more ferocious, rivers of blood flowing as Hidden Kill, Ming Zhan, and the Shadow Group members exhausted every ability in a struggle against the Heavenly Punishment Alliance.

"Ah!!!"

An arm from one Hidden Kill member was slashed off, blood gushing, sprinkling the sky. At that moment, the Hidden Kill member cared nothing for life or death, fiercely pinning down a female cultivator from the Jiuhuang Sect, using his remaining body to press her hard beneath. He opened his mouth, biting off her nose, blood splattering.

Terrified screams echoed continuously.

"Swish!" Just when Nangong Bing refused to leave, an iron arrow cut through the sky, like a gale, promptly striking Phantom’s shoulder.

Blood poured, splattering across Nangong Bing’s face. Only then did Phantom scream painfully, her body going limp, supported by Nangong Bing.

At that moment, Nangong Bing’s eyes were filled with fear.
