Chapter 1552: Earth Devil! (I)

Kaboom! An explosion came from the Yellow Scarf Warrior, and then countless pieces of stone and dirt flew through the air and began to merge with the Yellow Scarf Warrior.

The Yellow Scarf Warrior’s body was already immense, but it was now stimulated by another power to grow even larger.

Seventy meters! Eighty meters! Finally, at nearly one hundred meters, its intimidating and divine body stopped growing. Boom! Two more arms emerged from the Yellow Scarf Warrior’s shoulders.

In the blink of an eye, the Yellow Scarf Warrior had transformed into some four-armed monster, a demonic god. And this was not merely an external transformation. The Yellow Scarf Warrior’s strength also swelled to a new and terrifying level.

Whoosh!

Black waves of Stellar Energy erupted from the four-armed Yellow Scarf Warrior, sweeping toward the surrounding martial artists.

“Ah!”

“Save me!”

Those martial artists hiding out on the bronze slabs screamed as their bodies were rapidly petrified. Everyone struck by this energy was turned into black soil and then stone.

“Everyone, together!”

“What are you afraid of? Rather than just waiting here to die, we should work together and kill him!”

Above the Yellow Scarf Warrior, several martial artists clinging to the rock walls angrily roared as they shot out from their perches and attacked.

But the massive Yellow Scarf Warrior didn’t even glance at them, simply sending a black wave howling upward. The Stellar Energy erupting from their weapons turned black and then to stone along with their bodies, and they plummeted into the abyss.

“Young Patriarch, be careful! This is the Earth Devil Art!” the Origin Immortal Chief called out from a distant stone wall, her voice brimming with panic.

“Earth Devil Art?”

Wang Chong’s eyes widened, but there was no time to think, as the roaring Yellow Scarf Warrior was once more throwing a punch at him. The assistance from True Lord Yellow Dragon had pushed the Yellow Scarf Warrior’s strength to new heights, even boosting its petrification abilities to new levels. In this precipitous environment, even Wang Chong was forced to avoid this kind of attack.

Bang! Wang Chong drew back his hands, arched his body, and propelled himself toward a rock wall fifty to sixty meters away. Just when he was about to fall into the abyss, he hooked his arm around a bronze slab.

The bronze slabs the Origin Immortal Chief had summoned were like a gift of charcoal in the middle of a blizzard to everyone here, proving to be of great assistance.

“Number Seven, kill that brat! And kill everyone else here too!”

True Lord Yellow Dragon’s voice resounded like thunder.

Wang Chong’s heart trembled, and a moment later, the Yellow Scarf Warrior bellowed and began to chase Wang Chong. All the martial artists that entered its vision during this pursuit also fell victim to its attacks.

Boomboomboom!

Like a large and bulky machine, the Yellow Scarf Warrior moved down the walls, wrecking everything in its path, its frightening power obliterating all the bronze slabs it encountered.

“Kill!”

Some martial artists angrily bellowed as they shot forward and attacked the Yellow Scarf Warrior from various directions, hoping to use their agile bodies to attack this black demon god.

Whoosh!

At this moment, in a gust of strong wind, several figures landed in an area close to Wang Chong.

“Alliance Lord Song!” Wang Chong instantly recognized one of these men.

“It’s no good! We’re no match for this monster. Ordinary attacks are completely useless against it. Moreover, its rock hide is too thick, and the majority of the attacks can’t even get past it.”

In another gust of wind, another figure rushed toward Wang Chong’s location.

“Not only that, this old man fired a Soul-Snatching Needle into its body just now, but this scoundrel was completely fine. The Soul-Snatching Needles of the evil path are coated in a fierce poison that not even this old man would be able to endure… This scoundrel is no longer human!”

Wang Chong looked over and found to his astonishment that it was the Black Yin Ancestor!

The Black Yin Ancestor appeared rather embarrassed when he saw Wang Chong’s surprise glance, but he quickly changed subjects.

“We already fought with it while you were inside the Origin Immortal Palace, but none of us were any match for it. I, Alliance Lord Song, Xie Guangting, and a few others all worked together, but we still couldn’t kill it.”

“What?!”

Wang Chong couldn’t help but tremble. The combined might of all these experts was immense, but not even they had been enough to kill the Yellow Scarf Warrior. This was simply too shocking.

“Now is not the time to talk. This steep environment is not at all to our advantage. Our first task should be to get to the bottom of this abyss,” Song Yuanyi sternly replied.

Righteous Alliance Vice Lord Xie Guangting came in from another direction and landed on a bronze slab.

“I tried the passage, but even with my full strength, I couldn’t get through the seal. On the contrary, the repulsive power from the seal almost injured me! We can no longer use the passage!”

Xie Guangting’s strength was acknowledged throughout the martial arts world and his Universe Sundering Art was unmatched when it came to sheer damaging power, something that even the Black Yin Ancestor and his peers had to admit. If not even Xie Guangting could break through that seal, the others didn’t even need to try.

The mood turned strange, and everyone turned their eyes to Wang Chong.

The Black Yin Ancestor and Song Yuanyi had been old enemies for decades, and the Five Ancestor Alliance and Righteous Alliance had many grudges between them. Even in this dangerous situation, the two of them found it hard to let go of their pride and sincerely cooperate.

At a moment like this, a noble of the court like Wang Chong was a perfect intermediary.

Moreover, Wang Chong had previously killed the Goat, Deer, and Tiger Immortals, and even entered the Origin Immortal Palace. At this time, he had come to be regarded as the strongest of the group and their leader.

Boom!

At this moment, the Yellow Scarf Warrior discovered the impromptu gathering down below and waved an arm, extracting a column of stone seventy to eighty meters long from the wall. With a shake of its hand, the Yellow Scarf Warrior turned the column into a whip and swung it.

As it swung the whip, the Yellow Scarf Warrior attached its petrification power to it.

There was a thunderous boom as the stone whip cracked down on the gathering site, sending shards of stone and bronze flying in every direction. Wang Chong, Song Yuanyi, Xie Guangting, and the Black Yin Ancestor immediately began to head deeper into the abyss.

Rumble!

Several more heaven-sundering booms came from above.

The two god-like existences of the Origin Immortal Lord and True Lord Yellow Dragon were fiercely clashing, the golden waves of energy illuminating the place as brightly as day, plating the rocks and the bronze slabs protruding from them in a layer of gold.

Crash! Crush! Another large sheet of rocks was knocked loose from the ceiling and sent down.

The Yellow Scarf Warrior was a constant threat, but the ‘aftershocks’ of this battle between two supreme experts were even more dangerous, those falling rocks imbued with lethal force.

“Let’s go!”

Wang Chong led the group without hesitation into the abyss.

But at this moment, as Wang Chong scanned the area, he widened his eyes in shock.

The Origin Immortal Chief!

He had spotted the familiar figure of the Origin Immortal Chief on a nearby bronze slab.

She had apparently been caught up in the aftershocks of the previous battle, as her face was pale and her breathing ragged. Above her, rocks were raining down like meteors. The Origin Immortal Chief’s face was taut, and it was obvious that she could not block this wave of attacks.

“Careful!”

Wang Chong immediately started to go back up, braving the dangers of the falling stones to reach the Origin Immortal Chief.

Boomboomboom!

He moved like a lightning bolt, weaving his way through the rocks as he rapidly approached the Origin Immortal Chief.

As he zigged and zagged, he waved his sword, sending dazzling white bolts of Sword Qi into the falling rocks, which were cut and crushed into smaller pieces.

These stones all possessed immense power, so even Wang Chong’s God Demon Obliteration Sword Qi felt a powerful resistance as it cut through them.
