Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 168: Chapter 167: The Terrifying Magic (Second Update!)

The thirty thousand disciples of the First Army Corps of the Sect of True Martial Arts were scattered in the blink of an eye!

Screams, roars, and cries of anger were incessant.

However, none of this could stop the Purple Night Divine Guards from taking action.

The onslaught of Wind Blades lasted for about two minutes before it finally dissipated.

After all, for a mage, there is no time limit to cast magic, but it requires Magic Elements; a mage has only so much Magic Elements, and if the casting continued indefinitely, they would soon be exhausted.

After the Wind Blades vanished, the third member of the Purple Night Divine Guards finally made his move.

This person had a smirk at the corner of his mouth, which looked like mockery and contempt at the same time.

“Enjoying yourselves?” he asked.

“Enjoy your grandpa!”

The disciples of the First Army Corps of the Sect of True Martial Arts glared at him as if they wanted to devour him.

“Hmph!”

With a cold snort, he bellowed, “Tree, come forth!”

“Boom~~”

The ground trembled once more, just like when the Earth Nail appeared.

Deep green light swept across from heaven and earth, a large hole emerged from the ground, and all that light converged into the hole. Finally, with a thunderous roar, a tree began to grow slowly from it.

When the tree first appeared, it was only half a meter tall, but as it emerged, it grew larger and larger: one meter, five meters, ten meters, twenty meters…

In the blink of an eye, it had reached over a hundred meters tall!

The branches were lush, the trunk was extremely thick, and it looked vibrantly green. The rustling leaves seemed very excited.

“What tree is this?”

The disciples of the Sect of True Martial Arts looked uneasy, knowing that the Purple Night Divine Guards wouldn’t summon such a massive tree without reason.

They could clearly see that although the leaves of the tree emitted a deep green glow like they were adorned with countless gemstones, the trunk was a dull gray.

“Kill!”

At that moment, the Purple Night Divine Guard’s expression turned cold as he suddenly bellowed.

“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!”

As his words fell, astonishingly, numerous tendrils emerged from the tree, their speed so fast that in almost a blink of an eye, they had swept over a thousand people!

“Ahh!”

“Save me!”

“You bastard, what is this thing?!”

Screams and shouts of anger sounded simultaneously, and everyone caught by the tendrils struggled fiercely, bringing their weapons down on them.

But the tendrils were too tough, like stone; when the weapons struck them, they actually made a ringing sound of collision.

“Splurch!”

Finally, someone was bisected at the waist by a tendril, their internal organs scattering on the ground.

And their blood—instead of falling—was completely absorbed by the tendrils, which ultimately devoured it into the originally dull trunk.

As more and more people died, the trunk became redder, and by the time a thousand had been killed, the tendrils were like flames, incredibly red!

“Having fun now?”

The Purple Night Divine Guard spoke again, and as he waved his hand, countless tendrils swept out once more.

Seeing this, the disciples of the Sect of True Martial Arts turned pale and hurriedly fled in all directions.

“You will not escape!”

The fourth member of the Purple Night Divine Guard made his move.

His entire being was filled with an icy chill, and his complexion was pale.

He had long finished murmuring his spells, just waiting for this moment.

“Stop right there!”

A cold light flashed in his eyes as a startling icy force radiated from him. It was as if he wanted to freeze the entire world, covering a radius of ten thousand meters.

Several thousand disciples from the Sect of True Martial Arts who were slower had not managed to escape this ten-thousand-meter radius.

They felt as if their feet were glued to the ground, growing slower and slower, until at last, they saw that their feet were completely frozen.

“Get out of the way, get out of the way!!!”

Some disciples screamed hoarsely, struggling with all their might to break the ice, but no matter how they struggled, they could not break free.

“Bang, bang, bang!”

As their figures stopped, the vines struck, and when they hit their bodies, they were split in two!

“Monsters, monsters!!!”

The people of the First Legion of the Sect of True Martial Arts finally changed color. They dared not stay here any longer, nor did they have the desire to continue attacking.

Even though they were well-trained and moved in an orderly manner, at this moment, they were still overwhelmed by the terror of the Purple Night Divine Guard, and they almost collapsed!

“Are… are these still humans?”

“Is this the Purple Night Divine Guard of the God-Slaying Pavilion? We’ve only ever heard the name of the Five Divine Guard Corps but never truly seen them in action. Now looking at it, it’s nothing short of horrifying!”

“Who said that only Su Baliu was strong in the God-Slaying Pavilion? Who said that the disciples of the God-Slaying Pavilion were no good?”

“Just four people acting, and more than ten thousand from the First Legion of the Sect of True Martial Arts were wiped out; if all over a hundred members of the Purple Night Divine Guard were to act, wouldn’t the thirty thousand people of the First Legion evaporate in an instant?”

“Terrifying, absolutely terrifying!”

Those Loose Cultivators watching from a distance were dumbstruck, unable to believe what they were seeing. If they hadn’t witnessed it with their own eyes, they would never have believed it was true.

The highest Cultivation Base of the Purple Night Divine Guard was only at the Dragon Blood Realm, with others at the Dragon Vein Realm; theoretically speaking, they shouldn’t be a match for the First Legion of the Sect of True Martial Arts.

In terms of both numbers and the quality of their Cultivation Base, the First Legion of the Sect of True Martial Arts completely overpowered the Purple Night Divine Guard of the God-Slaying Pavilion.

Yet, under such overpowering circumstances, the First Legion of the Sect of True Martial Arts was still slain and scattered by the Purple Night Divine Guard, forced to flee in a rout!

Only at this moment did these Loose Cultivators finally understand why Su Han merely sealed off those one hundred thousand people and did not kill them.

He intended to use the lives of these one hundred thousand to demonstrate the strength of the God-Slaying Pavilion’s disciples!

If this continued, even if the entire one hundred thousand disciples of the Sect of True Martial Arts attacked, it probably wouldn’t be enough for the Purple Night Divine Guard to slaughter.

“What a bizarre tactic!”

Pian Pingtian stood in the Void, his vicious scars becoming bloodier.

He too could not discern what tactic the Purple Night Divine Guard had employed. If it were a Dragon Technique, there were no fluctuations of one, and besides, a Dragon Technique of such power would at least require a Purple Gold Level proficiency.

Each of these people used different moves. Did the God-Slaying Pavilion have that much money to buy Purple Gold Level Dragon Techniques?

The only explanation was the legendary ‘Magic’.

“Royal Guard, assassinate the Purple Night Divine Guard of the God-Slaying Pavilion. Second Army, continue the assault!”

After a moment of silence, Pian Pingtian spoke once again.

However, this time his voice was not loud, especially when he said ‘assassinate the Purple Night Divine Guard,’ only the Royal Guard could hear it.

The Royal Guard was the Army Corps personally commanded by the Sect Master of True Martial Arts, numbering not many, about a hundred or so, and within the Sect, they were second only to one and above ten thousand.

And each of them had reached the Dragon Spirit Realm!
