Chapter 647: Chapter 457: Massive Slaughter

Wu the Taoist was certainly not an authentic Earthling. His identity was fabricated by the system within Lan Ji’s invasion network. Although the online records appeared genuine, they could hardly withstand thorough investigation in reality. However, since Earth had endured two Sky Tipping events, with countless cities destroyed and population movements frequent, the difficulty of verifying someone’s true identity had significantly increased.

Therefore, as long as Wu the Taoist claimed to be Wu Yong, an awakened Silent One, people believed him. After all, no one would suspect a supreme cultivator of wasting time impersonating an Earthling.

"Silent Ones awakening? Such cases do exist, but they are exceedingly rare. Most Silent Ones spend their entire lives without any chance of awakening. Who could have expected that not only did this Wu Yong wake, but he also emerged with such extraordinary power."

The Evolvers from Golden Academy were simultaneously astonished and overjoyed.

Under such dire circumstances, gaining another powerful ally was like receiving timely aid in a snowstorm.

"Wu Yong... an unknown powerhouse of Earth?"

Taixian Weng narrowed his eyes, his face heavy with caution and apprehension. He had recognized from Wu Yong’s earlier actions that this man wielded terrifying strength. On the Xuanxian Continent, his power would place him at least in the Transcendance Tribulation Stage.

Moreover, Wu Yong harbored great hostility toward the cultivators, intervening twice in secret to protect Li Yi.

This made the situation truly troubling.

"Wu Yong, your strength is extraordinary, but you should also understand that the cultivators of Xuanxian Continent have a profound foundation. A lone individual cannot overturn the tide. If you dare to enact slaughter today, can you bear the consequences when our sects unite and launch an interdimensional war in retaliation?"

One Nascent Soul cultivator, though panicked, quickly regained his composure. He loudly scolded and warned Wu Yong not to act recklessly.

But before he could finish his sentence, Wu the Taoist merely cast a fleeting glance skyward. In an instant, a streak of five-colored light cleaved down from the heavens like divine retribution, striking the Nascent Soul cultivator directly.

"Ah!"

A scream echoed through the air. The Nascent Soul cultivator couldn’t even muster the strength to fight back. His body was shattered, his Nascent Soul obliterated, and his blood sprayed wildly. He died on the spot, without the slightest chance of resistance.

Witnessing this scene.

The other cultivators trembled in their hearts, their faces filled with terror.

Wu Yong’s power was truly monstrous, dispatching a Nascent Soul cultivator as easily as slaughtering a chicken.

"You’re so talkative—let me send you off first."

Wu the Taoist’s killing intent remained unabated. "Today, none of you cultivators from Xuanxian Continent should dream of escaping. The decision to start an interdimensional war lies with the Immortals; you mere pawns aren’t qualified to discuss it. You live like ants, unaware of your insignificance, and thus deserve your fate today."

"If the Immortals of Xuanxian Continent truly wish to commence a war, we will gladly oblige. We can shatter Xuanxian Continent and cross dimensions to survive, but you may not have the same fortune."

"All of you—die!"

Without hesitation, Wu the Taoist unleashed his relentless assault. The Primordial Spirit Flower bloomed radiantly as he manipulated the Five Qi of Heaven and Earth, weaving them through the skies to mete out death upon the mortal realm.

Intertwining beams of five-colored light descended relentlessly.

One Nascent Soul cultivator was enshrouded by the light and immediately let out a heart-wrenching scream. His body crumbled and his Nascent Soul was annihilated. Even with protective magic artifacts on him, they dimmed rapidly under the five-colored light, riddled with cracks, incapable of holding for even a moment.

One must understand, this was the work of a Tri-Floral Realm cultivation expert, whose power rivaled that of Mahayana cultivators.

Although Wu the Taoist’s strength had not been fully restored to its peak, eliminating these Nascent Soul cultivators was still an effortless task for him.

"Escape!"

Nascent Soul cultivator Yuan Ye’s face turned pale with terror. He had realized that this man Wu Yong was truly unrestrained, completely indifferent to the repercussions of offending the Xuanxian Continent. Wu Yong’s sole intent was to massacre everyone present, leaving no cultivator alive. It was unimaginably ruthless.

Indeed, Earthlings were born demons.

Yuan Ye activated his light-art technique to its utmost, fleeing rapidly beyond the bounds of Golden Academy.

As long as he could leave this area of five-colored skies, he might stand a chance of escaping.

But he quickly discovered that the five-colored sky seemed endless, with no visible boundary. It was impossible to escape its range in a short time.

"Trying to run? Won’t you stay to fight me instead?"

Just then, a streak of crimson light intercepted him. A Xuanhuang Treasure Seal hung above, emitting boundless radiance with talismans descending, sealing off all of Yuan Ye’s escape paths instantly.

"Li Yi." Yuan Ye roared with fury.

"No need to shout so loudly. I’ve been watching you for a while. If you want to escape, you’ll have to get through me first."

Li Yi stood upon auspicious clouds, his silver eyes locking onto his foe. Since Wu the Taoist had begun his massacre, he couldn’t afford to sit idly by.

"I’ll kill you first, then consider leaving."

Yuan Ye bellowed in rage. His mana surged as if ignited, erupting with immense force far beyond his usual power. Simultaneously, thirty-six treasure swords flew out from his storage spirit device.

Each sword was of the highest-grade spiritual artifact level.

The swords formed a formation, encircling Li Yi. In an instant, the air around him was filled with murderous sword light.

"Heavenly Gang Sword Array, kill!" Yuan Ye held nothing back, unleashing his full strength to overpower Li Yi and secure his escape. The longer the delay, the worse his predicament would become.
