Chapter 488: 446 Life Four

biu!

An alarm arrow shot into the sky, followed by two Black Armored Human shadows soaring out of the fortress, hurtling towards Li Chengyi at high speed—True Qi Military Officers.

"It’s the Shaoyin Spirit, retreat quickly!" Suddenly, one of them shouted loudly and abruptly retreated halfway. He clearly recognized Li Chengyi.

"Too late!" Li Chengyi laughed out loud as a vast expanse of white Qi burst around him in an instant.

The white Qi surged up, reaching over thirty meters high, enveloping a large area of land around it.

Whoosh!!!

A giant gust of wind exploded.

A huge deer person, covered in thick gray-white bone armor, burst out from the white Qi, lowered its head, and slammed hard into the black fortress.

He ignored the martial practitioners rushing out and the arrows shot in haste from the fortress.

Li Chengyi only made two moves.

Lowering his head.

Charging!

Boom!!!

At this time, Li Chengyi’s body had grown to thirty meters tall, nearly matching the height of the fortress walls.

His massive antlers slammed viciously into the wall.

More than tens of thousands of tons of Giant Strength poured onto the black wall. And that wasn’t even his full strength.

Shaking.

Exploding.

Thick gray-white antlers pierced into the wall like two giant spikes, slicing, tearing, and blasting it open into countless chunks of rubble and soil.

Large rocks shot inward like rain, knocking down the rushing Tushan Black Armored Soldiers one after another.

Dozens of soldiers were taken out in an instant, and the rest emitted terrified screams, turning around to run.

With the rumbling sounds, Li Chengyi lifted his head, shaking off the stones and dark soil, and briefly surveyed the map for the nearest county city in Tushan.

"Try to stop me!" he laughed, allowing hundreds of Xuan Crows to fly up in panic, scattering and fleeing in all directions.

The black feathers scattered down, swept up by the billowing white Qi below, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Then, with another sprint, amidst the thunderous noise, the fortress collapsed under the impact of the Giant Strength, turning into a pile of ruins.

Li Chengyi then aimed at another direction, his hooves forcefully pushed off, and he charged wildly on his way.

Thunderous hoofbeats shook the plain, kicking up piles of black soil.

In just the blink of an eye, he was gone from the spot, charging towards the next county city of Tushan—Wuxi Province.

Shaoyin Country was in complete chaos, with each prefecture running its affairs independently. His Flower’s ability to absorb Evil Thoughts had also increased tenfold with his body size, reaching a range of three hundred meters.

This range had been noticed the last time he had entered the Spirit Fusion True Seal Form.

Last time the range wasn’t this large; this time it increased even more, which was just perfect for replicating the method he used last time to collect Evil Thoughts.

Before the thunderous crashing sound could spread, Li Chengyi’s figure had already far outpaced the sound waves, charging further ahead.

Seconds later, a large city built within an oval-shaped wall appeared before him.

The city walls did not exceed twenty-something meters, which was not as tall as his current height.

Without hesitation or doubt.

Li Chengyi lowered his head, aiming his antlers at the city gate.

"This is a return gift for your country’s lord..."

His massive voice was like a storm, instantly spreading throughout the entire county city.

Martial practitioners rose into the sky, climbing onto the city walls, shocked to see the gray-white giant shadow towering so much taller than them.

"It’s... the Fifth Yin God of Quling Mansion! The Great Deer! How could he be here?!"

"Impossible... We can’t win against him! Run!!"

"Run!"

"Quickly go and inform the county governor!"

By this time, the county governor Shangguan Che had already arrived at the city wall tower, staring at the giant deer person starting to dig its hooves in for aim; he was completely stupefied.

Just a moment ago he was drinking wine in his mansion with a beauty in his arms; the next, like plunging into an abyss, he felt a coldness all over his body.

The strongest military men in the county, without needing his orders, had already scattered and fled.

The Blood Essence Martial Artists, who could move at the speed of sound, were naturally the fastest to run, followed closely by the True Qi Martial Practitioners, who averaged a hundred meters per second.

Then there were the nobles and rich men with their various exotic beast mounts.

The crowd, as if insane, pushed and trampled over each other, pouring out of the other three city gates in a swarm.

No one wanted to die, and for some reason, the Fifth Shaoyin Spirit, the Giant White Deer, seemed to have no immediate intention of initiating a slaughter but was quietly waiting for something.

What was Li Chengyi waiting for?

Naturally, he was waiting for people to run farther away.

If everyone died, how could he absorb Evil Thoughts? Of course, he had to wait for people to get to safety so that he could threaten and intimidate them, extracting benefits from them.

Dead people are valueless; it’s the living who are useful.

He never intended to massacre the city from the start—his visit here was merely for absorbing Evil Thoughts.

After waiting a few minutes, finally, once those who could run had mostly fled, leaving only the commoners who were too late to escape and were packed at the other city gates, he rammed his head hard into the city wall.

Boom!!!

The wall shattered, crushed and bent under the pressure, spraying chunks of debris inward.

Houses inside the city collapsed under stones of varying sizes.

Li Chengyi shook off the black soil from his body and walked into the city at a leisurely pace, strolling through rows of empty houses.

Whenever he encountered a building that blocked his path, he used his breastplate to smash and push it aside.

Evil Thoughts swarmed from all directions, and as he continued to walk, more and more Evil Thoughts accumulated.

Soon, within half a minute, the Evil Thoughts of Feilian rapidly filled to 100.

’Done.’

Li Chengyi was completely satisfied; this move was extremely effective.

Back in Earth-Moon, he was concerned about modern weapons causing mass destruction and worried about top-tier powers like Dongjun intervening and suppressing him.

But here, opposition to the enemy country was only natural. He could freely threaten and intimidate others, rapidly gathering a large amount of Evil Thoughts.

Once Evil Thoughts were fully harvested, Li Chengyi immediately withdrew, his form absorbing the white mist and abruptly shrinking before transforming into a shadow flying back the way he had come.

From his appearance to his departure, there was no sign whatsoever, it only lasted three minutes and fifteen seconds.

County Governor Shangguan Che had prepared himself to die alongside the city, even placing a knife to his own neck, ready to commit suicide, when he lifted his head and saw that the Great Deer had vanished!?

"What’s happening!?"

Staring blankly at the empty county town, had it not been for the broken wall still standing, he would have thought everything that had just happened was an illusion.

"My lord!! My lord we have survived!! We’ve survived, ah!!"

The deputy county governor next to him embraced him in a frenzy of laughter, with tears streaming down his face.

At this time, the nobles who had not yet fled too far also realized the situation. After exchanging looks and hesitating for a moment, they did not immediately return but stood still to observe.

But the commoners left inside the city began to celebrate wildly, as the nobles and rich who hurriedly fled had not taken a large amount of wealth and resources with them, which now became a windfall for them.

With no one to guard them, everyone rushed into the various mansions to loot.

The entire Wuxi County fell into a state of jubilation.

In the midst of such sorrow and joy, two black lines appeared in the distance, rushing towards Wuxi County at high speed; they were the Underworld Commanders from the Tianjing Prefecture coming to reinforce!

But their reinforcement was doomed to be in vain.

Earth-Moon.

Outside the Jade Cauldron Fortress.

In the space orbit, squadrons of warplanes were lined up in the distance, refueling and rearming, waiting to take off.

Black autonomous machines carrying energy blocks moved quickly along the main track, passing back and forth beside Ding Meng.

She was alone on the platform at the edge of the main track, slowly walking, pondering over her recent mistake.

’I didn’t tamper with Farn himself, only attacked the Dragon Descendants under his control, and they noticed so quickly. It seems there are two problems.’

’First, their control over the Dragon Descendants is tighter than I imagined.’

’Second, their own brainwaves may differ from ours... If I could study a relevant sample, perhaps I could complete a new seduction module upgrade targeting the Shadow Dragon.’

The structure of their brainwaves was different, and the reactions they produced upon invasion also differed, something she had experienced before, but never this quickly.

Click.

Just as she was deep in thought, a subtle click came from behind her.

The track linking to the fortress was shielded by a force field, providing air and simulated gravity, making the environment not much different from that of the Earth-Moon.

Therefore, sound waves could also be transmitted.

"Who’s there!?" Ding Meng swiftly turned her head, spinning around to look behind her.

If it were an ordinary person, one might assume it was just ambient noise, environmental sound, merely happening to be near.

But she was different.

As one of the Jiu Yi, and one with a relatively high ranking, even if her alert and perception range was weakened and reduced here, it would still be over fifty meters.

That meant that any individual entity, living being within fifty meters, was clearly visible in her mind.

Even the slightest changes in the metal track under her feet wouldn’t escape her grasp.

She could feel that the sound wasn’t coming from beneath her feet.

So...

’No, that’s wrong! It’s not behind me, it’s...’ Ding Meng suddenly realized and looked down at her own shadow.

But it was already too late.

A dragon shadow silently burst out from within the shadow, rapidly lunging at her face.

’Maze Castle!!’

Buzz!!

The protective force field activated automatically, but... with a crisp sound coming from within the dragon shadow.

Farn’s face appeared for a fleeting moment, as if Ding Meng saw him crush something in his hand.

It looked like a sphere, a silver orb gleaming with white light.

In the moment it was crushed, a massive burst of invisible distortions exploded around them, freezing the colourful light bands emitted by Maze Castle for an instant.

And it was in that instant.

The Shadow Dragon suddenly closed in, entering the protective force field.

What followed was utter darkness, enveloping everything around.

The silver-gray track had disappeared.

In its place was a boundless dark space where no edges could be seen, nor could the direction be discerned.

"Welcome to the Shadow Space prepared by us for the ritual," Farn’s figure condensed behind Ding Meng, speaking softly.

"Shadow Space...?" Ding Meng’s heart sank; by now she knew that her previous actions had slipped and she had been ambushed by the enemy.

But mulling over this was pointless now; she had to find a way out of here, to warn Dongjun!

"General Farn, what do you mean by this?"

Her beautiful eyes darkened, fixating on the opponent with a trace of chill.

"To elevate the Dragon King, to accomplish the ritual, we need to construct a throne here. The three of us have expended a great deal of effort utilizing a large number of living shadows to forge such a pure Shadow Space," Farn sneered.

"Through this space, we can use it as a hub for mutual transfer at any time, convene here, and complete the exchange of resources and information."

"You mean to say...!?" Ding Meng’s eyes narrowed with a flash of silver light, instantly grasping the opponent’s meaning.

"Exactly as you think."

On another side, Saul’s figure slowly emerged from the shadows.

Following that, Ying appeared from a third direction.

Three Shadow Dragons, at this moment, crossed vast distances in an instant, converging here together.

"You’re not just up against me."

"But... us," Saul said with a mocking smile.
