Book 07 Chapter 173: Reinforcements from Everywhere

Chiyou City:

Roar! A furious roar erupted from within the thunderclouds.

Xiong You, theres no need to make such a pitiful noise. Weve tasted your bear paws before! Hahahaha! Chiyou laughed heartily.

Chiyou, today marks your inevitable demise! The irate bellow came from the thunderclouds.

Unfazed, Chiyou responded with a disdainful smile.

You d.a.m.n insects! the electric eel spirit growled ferociously.

In its rage, the electric eel spirit turned its head and devoured one of the giants clinging to its body.

Although the giants were larger than ordinary men, standing ten meters tall, they were insignificant compared to the electric eel spirits immense length of over three kilometers. The other giants paid little attention to their companions fate, continuing their relentless a.s.sault and tearing into the electric eel spirits flesh.

Humph! Feast away! Lets see who can outlast whom! I will eat you all! the electric eel spirit roared defiantly.

Whoos.h.!.+

The electric eel spirit immediately swallowed two more giants whole.

There is limitless destructive black lightning within my stomach. Once you enter, III! The electric eel spirits words trailed off as its eyes widened in astonishment.

Blargh!

Blood sprayed from the electric eel spirits mouth, leaving it bewildered and alarmed.

What...whats happening? it cried out in disbelief.

The giants guffawed, taunting, Haha! We brothers have bodies of bronze and iron, impervious to weapons, fire, and water! Your destructive black lightning? Lets see if it can refine my brothers! Hahahaha!

Wreathed in countless arcs of black lightning, the three giants tore through the electric eel spirits body, ravenously devouring its flesh. This onslaught inflicted immense injuries on the electric eel spirit, leaving it reeling from the devastating impact.

The spiritual souls within the electric eel spirits body desperately attempted to intervene but were nearly consumed themselves.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

The electric eel spirit roared as it expelled the three giants from its mouth.

The giants relentless a.s.sault continued unabated, regardless of the electric eel spirits attempts to bite or harm them. The giants feasted upon its flesh without hesitation.

What are you all waiting for? Number Five! Number Five! Make your move quickly! the electric eel spirit exhorted desperately.

Whoos.h.!.+

In response, four palms emerged from the remaining thunderclouds, poised to join the fray.

Four manifested palms?

Chiyous eyes narrowed at the sudden appearance of four manifested palms. Each manifested palm was different. Based on their auras, there were four consummate Upper Heavenly Palace Realm cultivators. He finally took the enemy seriously.

Humph! So what if there are more of you? Break! Chiyou shouted, launching another palm strike towards the sky.

One of the manifested palms rushed towards Chiyou while the remaining three went to rescue the electric eel spirit.

One of the manifested palms turned a fiery red, while a gaping mouth emerged in the palm of Chiyous hand. Just as he was about to consume the fiery red manifested palm, it suddenly expanded a hundredfold, becoming larger than the gaping mouth in Chiyous palm.

Boom!

A thunderous sound echoed as the fiery red manifested palm was blasted away, unable to withstand Chiyous strength. Nevertheless, it managed to escape ingestion, causing Chiyous expression to darken.

So, its you? The Heavenly Demon Holy Lands Number Five? Chiyous face grew cold.

The recent encounter in the Corpse Mound World was still fresh in Chiyous memory.

Meanwhile, the three colossal manifested palms acted swiftly, knocking the eighty-one giants away and rescuing the Electric Eel Heavenly Demon.

Whoos.h.!.+

After fleeing, the electric eel spirit swiftly transformed into a plump, b.l.o.o.d.y figure, presenting a pitiful appearance with extensive injuries and flesh gorged out in many places.

Roar!

The eighty-one giants opened their mouths and sucked, instantly consuming all the thunderclouds in the sky.

Suddenly, five figures appeared in the vast expanse above.

Two dogs from the Heavenly Demon Holy Land and three from the Huang Heavenly Dynasty? The Fire Toad Heavenly Demon? The Electric Eel Heavenly Demon? Xiong You? Ao Ying? Fengbo? Chiyous voice dripped with contempt.

The b.l.o.o.d.y Electric Eel Heavenly Demon locked eyes with Chiyou, maintaining a frigid countenance.

Dressed in black robes, the Fire Toad Heavenly Demon revealed hands glowing a fiery red, exuding an aura of toxic fire.

Ao Ying clenched his fist, his expression icy.

Fengbo grinned, his narrowed eyes concealing murderous intent.

The final figure, a burly man in a fur robe, grimaced as he held the bleeding stump of his right arm, the hand of which had been bitten off but was regenerating slowly. This was Xiong You, the Bear Prime, who stared at Chiyou with an icy gaze.

Fire Toad Heavenly Demon, how did your palm strike fare against Chiyou? Fengbo asked.

It was hasty, but I held him off. Chiyou is formidable, but Im confident! the Fire Toad Heavenly Demon declared with self-a.s.surance.

How are your injuries, Xiong You? Fengbo inquired, turning his gaze to the fur-robed man.

Hmph, Chiyou is cunning, but Im unharmed. I can kill him! Xiong You proclaimed with a fierce grimace.

Chiyou let out a cold laugh. You think you can kill us? You simply got careless? Do you really believe we have unleashed our full power?

The fives faces sank.

Ao Ying, youve reached the consummation of the Upper Heavenly Palace Realm? It seems your cultivation is not stable yet! Chiyou remarked coldly.

Ive just reached the consummation of the Upper Heavenly Palace Realm, but from now on, I wont be inferior to any of you! Ao Ying retorted with determination.

Hah! Hahahaha! Indeed, youve reached the consummation of the Upper Heavenly Palace Realm. Well done. You must have inherited some kind of ancestral dragon legacy. The moment you reached consummation, you surpa.s.sed this electric eel. But so what? Chiyou scoffed in a chilling tone.

Ao Ying glared at Chiyou.

Finally, Chiyou turned his attention to Fengbo. Fengbo? Hah! We underestimated you. You concealed your true allegiance so well. Jiang Lianshan sent you to spy on Ji Dihong, but you ended up supporting Ji Dihong. Playing both sides? Hah! Hahaha! Everyone misjudged you!

Fengbo merely smiled faintly. It doesnt matter if people misjudged me. What matters is that I have made no mistakes.

Chiyou, youd better drive the power of your nation quickly. The five of us have reached the consummation of the Upper Heavenly Palace Realm. Do you really think you can contend with us alone? Besides you, who in the Nine Li Imperial Dynasty is worth mentioning? Oh, right! There are also these eighty-one charred heads who barely held their ground against the Electric Eel Heavenly Demon. Understand this: the Electric Eel Heavenly Demon is the weakest among the five of us! Xiong You, the Bear Prime, sneered.

The Electric Eel Heavenly Demons face stiffened, but he did not dispute the claim.

We dont need to drive the power of our nation to deal with the few of you! Chiyou said coldly.

Hahahaha! Rather, you have not gained the support of your Nine Li Imperial Dynasty citizens yet, right? Even if you drive the power of your nation, you cant get much! Xiong You guffawed.

Chiyou, since you have no troops to rely on, today is the day of your demise! Ao Yings voice grew frigid.

Chiyous face darkened, and he was about to speak.

Bang! Bang!

In a sudden burst of light, two figures descended upon the mountains near Chiyou City, unleas.h.i.+ng formidable auras.

These auras belonged to consummate Upper Heavenly Palace Realm cultivators.

Huh? Everyone looked over.

Han Imperial Dynastys Shangguan Hen. By His Reverences command, I am here and ready to obey the Nine Li Imperial Emperors commands! Shangguan Hen bowed respectfully while s.h.i.+ning with a bright, golden light.

Han Imperial Dynastys Gu Han. By His Reverences command, I am here and ready to obey the Nine Li Imperial Emperors commands! Gu Han also bowed respectfully, similarly s.h.i.+ning with a bright, golden light.

Shangguan Hen? Gu Han? If you are here, what happened to the Silken Web Heavenly Demon and the others? the Fire Toad Heavenly Demon questioned sharply.

Everyone looked toward Borderless Heavenly Capital, only to find its vicinity calm, without a trace of the Silken Web Heavenly Demon and the others.

Something went wrong, the Fire Toad Heavenly Demon uttered in a solemn tone.

With two consummate Upper Heavenly Palace Realm cultivators arriving to lend their a.s.sistance, Chiyou couldnt help but burst into laughter, elated by their presence. Hahaha! Thank you both for coming. Originally, we didnt want to trouble Second Brother, but since youre here, join us!

Yes! Shangguan Hen and Gu Han responded in unison, stepping forward and swiftly reaching Chiyous side.

Chiyou did not stand on ceremony with Gu Hai.

Initially, we planned to crush these five insignificant pests alone. However, now that youre here, please engage one or two of them. With your support, we will take down all five, sparing none! Chiyous face revealed a sinister smile.

Humph! Chiyou, what bold words! Xiong You glared.

However, the confidence displayed by the five seemed to have diminished.

Bang! Bang!

Just then, two more beams of light streaked over.

Huh? Everyone turned their head to look.

Two more figures landed forcefully on the plaza where Chiyou stood.

Xingtian and Hou Yi? Xiong Yous face suddenly turned grim.

Yan Heavenly Dynastys Xingtian. By Her Holy Eminences command, I am here and ready to obey the Nine Li Imperial Emperors commands!

Yan Heavenly Dynastys Hou Yi. By Her Holy Eminences command, I am here and ready to obey the Nine Li Imperial Emperors commands!

The two figures bowed respectfully.

Not far away, the Fire Toad Heavenly Demon sneered, The Yan Heavenly Dynasty? They sent only two ninth-layer Upper Heavenly Palace Realm cultivators to a.s.sist? Hahaha! It seems the Yan Heavenly Dynasty doesnt have any formidable experts to offer!

The Fire Toad Heavenly Demon could sense Xingtians and Hou Yis auras, which were only at the Upper Heavenly Palace Realms ninth layer, weaker than the earlier giants. Nevertheless, they had the audacity to claim they were here to heed Chiyous commands?

No, thats impossible! Fengbo, the calmest among them, exclaimed with a dark face.

What? Are they not at the Upper Heavenly Palace Realms ninth layer? Their auras are unmistakable! The Electric Eel Heavenly Demon couldnt believe it.

Chiyous brows furrowed as he looked at Xingtian and Hou Yi, his face evincing mixed emotions.

Our brothers, to think that you submitted to Jiang Ba! How different you are from the proud individuals you once were! Chiyous disbelief was clear in his voice.

Her Holy Eminences strength and strategic prowess are unrivaled. We consider it a great honor to follow her command! Hou Yis eyes gleamed with staunch resolution.

Hahaha! Very well, very well. You find it honorable? We remember when we first stepped onto the battlefield, you were there protecting us. It has been nearly four thousand years. That old fogey Jiang Lianshan wanted to hide you by sealing your cultivations? When Jiang Ba turned into a zombie, her bloodline changed. However, we can help you break that seal. Jiang Ba? Haha! She must have sent you here so that we could unseal your cultivations, right? Very well, come! Chiyou said solemnly.

Chiyous finger vibrated, producing two drops of blood that swiftly landed on Xingtians and Hou Yis foreheads.

Stop him! Fengbos alarmed voice rang out.

However, it was too late.

When Chiyous blood landed on Xingtians and Hou Yis foreheads, crimson seals suddenly appeared there.

Bang!

The crimson seals shattered.

Rumble!

A tempestuous aura erupted from Xingtian and Hou Yi, causing the ground of the plaza to crack and tremble.

The consummation of the Upper Heavenly Palace Realm? The Electric Eel Heavenly Demons face paled in shock.

Thank you, Nine Li Imperial Emperor! Xingtian and Hou Yi expressed their grat.i.tude with a deep bow.

Our brothers, hearing you speak with such courtesy feels strange. Its as if we have returned to the past, fighting side by side. Initially, we intended to kill just these five dogs, but now we believe we should march straight to Xuanyuan City and slay that treacherous Ji Dihong! Chiyou grinned fiercely.

We heed the Nine Li Emperors command! Hou Yi and Xingtian declared in unison.

Boom!

Emanating menacing auras, Chiyou, Xingtian, Hou Yi, Shangguan Hen, Gu Han, and the eighty-one giants redirected their gaze towards the five powerful experts in the sky.
