Chapter 247: Lost the lady and lost the soldiers too

Having had the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag taken away, the overall combat power of Nether River was diminished even further, yet when he exhibited the power of the two Divine Swords, their might was absolutely not to be underestimated.

His trump cards and countermeasures were all known to them, they harbored no fear whatsoever, even feeling like a cat toying with a mouse. The four Primordial Golden Immortals joining forces against Nether River were neither overzealous nor indifferent, content with just holding the line as if they were too lazy to exert their full strength. For they indeed were idle and bored, and if they had played their deadly moves, Nether River certainly would’ve been defeated, and upon his defeat, he would’ve retreated to the Asura Blood Sea. Then there would be no one left to ridicule, and it wouldn’t be fun anymore!

Respected audience, let us now enumerate Nether River’s deadly moves.

Firstly, was the incarnation of hundreds of millions of Blood God Children. However, he had already detonated all these avatars during the battle between Buddha and demons to win time for his escape; secondly, there was the Blood River Grand Formation within the Asura Blood Sea, but this formation could only be deployed passively within the Asura Blood Sea for defense and not for active attacks. Without the enemy invading the Asura Blood Sea, it was utterly useless; thirdly, was Nether River’s Twelfth Rank Karmic Fire Lotus Platform, but the four fighters were extremely cautious and collaborative, leaving no chance for Nether River to prevail.

It could be said that Nether River had been completely pinned down by the four of them.

When Nether River sent a Sword Aura slashing towards Yuan Hong, Yuan Hong burst into laughter and said, "Old Monster Nether River, don’t be hasty! Just kneel and beg me, and I will surely return your Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag."

With that said, he maneuvered his staff, which turned into a Divine Dragon soaring into the sky, entangling the Sword Aura in battle, shredding it immediately. The Divine Dragon also disintegrated into powder, both sides suffering damage.

Yuan Hong’s words were too cutting. Who was Nether River? A fiercely renowned figure since Ancient Times, to actually be asked to kneel to Yuan Hong? Jokes should not be made so lightly!

Wu Zhiqi kept launching Water Thunder bombs at Nether River, who urged the Karmic Fire Lotus Platform, spewing out endless Karmic Fire. Whatever the Karmic Fire touched would ignite, and when these Water Thunders met the Karmic Fire, they astonishingly burst into flames, as if the water had turned into tung oil, detonating one by one like a myriad of fireworks in the sky.

In his heart, Nether River felt both fury and urgency. The Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag had been taken, and if he couldn’t reclaim it, it would be a terrible loss!

He launched ferocious attacks at Yuan Hong, but Yuan Hong’s abilities were not meager either. Without his Blood God Children avatars, Nether River didn’t intimidate him, and with the other three assisting, even though Nether River was stronger, his fatal moves were all neutralized by the others. This made Nether River feel as if he were punching cotton with all his might.

"Nether River, if you convert to Buddhism, the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag can also be returned to you," said Ksitigarbha King, not able to resist joining in the teasing of a clearly infuriated Nether River after seeing him provoked by Wu Zhiqi and Yuan Hong.

Old and cunning as he was, how could Nether River not discern the sarcasm in Ksitigarbha King’s words? He was even more infuriated, thinking even Ksitigarbha King had taken after those two monkeys, becoming sharp-tongued and joining in the mockery! This was intolerable!

"Fine then, today this old ancestor will make you four pay a price, even if it costs me dearly!" Nether River roared, looking absolutely frenzied.

Yuan Hong quickly performed a somersault, retreating over a dozen miles, and shouted loudly, "Nether River, the old monster, is going for broke, be careful!"

From the top of Nether River’s head, a magnificent energy surged out, shooting straight towards the Ninefold Heavens, a truly magnificent sight.

Ksitigarbha King and the others gathered together, looking gravely at Nether River, and Ksitigarbha King said, "He is condensing his Three Flowers and Five Qi, even going as far as to sever a wisp of his Primordial Spirit, burning his Primordial Spirit Thoughts to unleash his strongest combat power! Be careful!"

Nether River’s body was enveloped in a thick layer of blood qi, holding twin swords. As he charged toward the four, he let out a furious howl, and the sword light shook. Endless Sword Auras transformed into a curtain of rain that covered the area for hundreds of miles around, leaving no chance for escape.

Ksitigarbha King ordered, "I’ll take on Nether River with Yuan Hong, Wu Zhiqi and Diting, you block all the Sword Auras!"

Yuan Hong nodded and said, "All right!"

Wu Zhiqi and Diting naturally had no objections, each displaying their Divine Skills to fend off the dense Sword Auras. Diting continuously vibrated with the Six Paths Divine Sound, temporarily simulating a Reincarnation World. The Sword Auras that fell were all absorbed into it, but in just a moment, this temporarily simulated Reincarnation World collapsed. After all, it was but a simulation, unable to withstand the bombardment of such immense Sword Auras for long.

Wu Zhiqi also exhibited his Divine Skills, his iron staff stretching hundreds of meters, which he wielded above his head, blocking every Sword Aura that fell with its shadow.

Diting and Wu Zhiqi resisted the Sword Auras while Yuan Hong and Ksitigarbha King countered Nether River’s offensive.

If it were only Ksitigarbha King and Diting, they would have managed to block Nether River’s fierce attack, but surely at the cost of their own core strength. Now, with four Primordial Golden Immortals taking action, they could minimize the damage to the lowest level. No one dared to boast that they wouldn’t get hurt, as once a Primordial Golden Immortal fought desperately, even if surrounded by more than a dozen other Primordial Golden Immortals, at least one would get injured.

It was like a street fight among mortals, where a group of ten attacked one who only grabbed one and didn’t let go.

Nether River had latched onto Yuan Hong and was not letting go. Fortunately, Ksitigarbha King continually intervened to neutralize Nether River’s deadly moves. Otherwise, Yuan Hong would surely have been beaten to a serious injury, which would have taken several years to recover from.

"Boom! Boom boom!!!"
