Unfortunately, Zhang Liang had given the order. Strange curse marks had been planted in their bodies. If they dared to defy Zhang Liang's orders, once the curse marks were activated, they would suffer a fate worse than death. It would be worse than dying at the hands of Qin Shi.
The elder gritted his teeth and leaped towards the Qin Palace, where Qin Shi was closing in.
Outside the Nightmare Palace, Qin Shi was like a ferocious god. He held a divine sword that glowed with eight different colors. Everywhere he passed, corpses were strewn.
"If you don't want to die, get out of my way!" Qin Shi said coldly, waving his hand to kill a World Realm Elder.
On the Nightmare Palace's side, there were hundreds of World Realm experts. Among them, there were about a hundred who had achieved the Great Completion Realm. This kind of power was enough to sweep away everything in the 7,000 Sea Palaces. Back when the Palace of Three Purities was still around, if such a power had appeared, it would have been able to destroy the Palace of Three Purities. But such a terrifying power was useless before Qin Shi.
They did not even have the courage to fight Qin Shi.
Unfortunately, Zhang Liang had given the order for them to stall Qin Shi, regardless of their lives. This made them feel helpless. In order to avoid the curse marks' backlash, they could only bite the bullet.
"Palace Master Qin, we have no choice. Our bodies have all been implanted with the curse marks of the Nightmare Palace. If we do not attack you, we will die, and we will die a horrible death." One of the elders clenched his fists and shouted angrily.
Keng!
Keng!
The two beams of light descended like meteorites. Qin Shi glanced at them from the corner of his eye and extended his hand. A light halo lingered in his palm like a whirlpool. He suddenly grabbed the two energies in his hand and exerted force through his palm.
Boom!
The two extremely vicious powers were instantly reduced to dust.
"How... how is this possible?" the World Realm Elder said in disbelief.
Although he knew that he wasn't as strong as Qin Shi, his cultivation base was in the Greater Success Realm. Even Zong Yuanzi wouldn't have been able to block his attack easily.
Qin Shi coldly swept his gaze around. His black pupils flashed with a golden light as his Spiritual Force seeped out. Very quickly, he sensed an energy that didn't belong to a human within the bodies of these World Realm experts. It was the baleful aura of a ferocious demon.
"Little fellow, there is indeed a set of curse seals planted in their bodies. If I'm not wrong, it should be Ming Xuan's Heart Burning Curse. Once the curse seals are activated, an intense flame will burn their hearts, eventually burning their entire bodies to death," the evil Demon clone said.
Qin Shi nodded. He could also see the fierceness of the seal, but he did not feel any pity for it.
To Qin Wentian, it was extremely easy for him to remove the curse marks. However, he didn't do so because he once said that the Qin Palace could only betray once. The reason why these people were cursed by the Puppet Tribe was because of their greed. If they didn't choose to betray the Qin Palace and join the Qin Sect of Annihilation, they wouldn't have ended up in such a state.
Now, Qin Shi could indeed save them. However, some people didn't deserve pity. If these people could betray the Qin Palace for the benefits of the Qin Palace once, in the future, when there was a second Qin Palace, they would still betray the Qin Palace again. That wasn't the result Qin Shi wanted to see.
These people wouldn't remember the kindness you gave them.
Qin Shi shook his head regretfully. At this moment, hundreds of World Realm experts closed in on Qin Shi, surrounding him.
"Over a hundred World Realm experts. Their strength can't be underestimated." Under the pressure of over a hundred World Realm experts, it would be a lie to say that Qin Shi didn't feel any pressure.
After all, Qin Shi wasn't suffering from the backlash of the demonic blood. In that state, Qin Shi was practically invincible. Not to mention hundreds of World Realm experts, even tens of thousands of them were just ants in Qin Shi's eyes. Only Transcendent Realm experts, and many of them, could shake Qin Shi.
But now, Qin Shi still had to be careful when facing over a hundred World Realm experts.
"Let's join forces. He's just one person. If we attack with all our strength, I don't believe that he's really invincible." A few Palace Lords with higher statuses shouted.
The World Realm experts glanced at each other, their eyes filled with ferocity.
"Over a hundred, it's not easy to deal with. What if we do this?" Qin Shi smiled, and a golden divine seal appeared on his forehead.
Suddenly, Qin Shi's figure became extremely faint. At this moment, Qin Shi split into two, then into four, and started changing continuously. In the end, Qin Shi actually split into almost a hundred clones. Almost a hundred Golden Pattern Psyche Bodies appeared, and the faces of the people from Nightmare Palace instantly turned gloomy.
"Damn it, soul clones?"
"Yes, I forgot that this little bastard has the identity of a Talisman Demon Master." A few Palace Lords cursed angrily.
"However, Soul Avatars require the Spiritual Energy of the main body to be dispersed. If he creates over a hundred Spiritual Energy Avatars like this, every single one of them will be extremely weak. This is beneficial to us. If we destroy his avatars, the Spiritual Energy will scatter between heaven and earth, and his main body will also be weakened." Countless experts shouted.
Over a hundred World Realm experts clenched their fists tightly. At this moment, they turned into shooting stars, and thousands of martial arts smashed towards Qin Shi like a storm.
Every single one of them possessed the power to destroy the world. In an instant, the entire sea quaked and the mountains shook.
Qin Shi forgot about the chaotic martial arts storm. Qin Shi sneered. Indeed, the Soul Doppelganger would disperse the spiritual power of the main body. However, what if he added the Reincarnation Stone Statue?
Qin Shi waved his hand, and a huge stone statue took root in the center of Qin Shi's clone.
"Reincarnation Change!"
Qin Shi shouted fiercely. In an instant, the spiritual energy in the world gathered towards the reincarnation stone statue, and then dispersed to the hundreds of stone statues of Qin Shi. Of course, the price of doing this was that the area within a million meters of the Qin Palace instantly became desolate. Only the area within a thousand meters of Qin Shi's location was intact, and it was full of vitality. The flowers and grass on the ground grew a few hundred times.
"I can only let this place suffer for now. After this is over, I will change the vitality of the other places and restore this place."
Qin Shi looked at the sea region that had almost turned into an ancient desert, and he couldn't help but feel guilty and shocked. This was the first time Qin Shi had used the reincarnation stone statue to this extent.
Qin Shi looked at the endless desert and couldn't help but sigh. "No wonder the reincarnation stone statue was a taboo in ancient times. If it was activated at full power, this power would be enough to turn everything in the world into one's own backyard."
"Hehe, of course. If you dare to do that, you'll definitely be hunted down even more severely than you being a human and a demon. In fact, all of the Immortal Palaces and Sects will appear. There are rules in this world. You can change them, but you definitely can't break them. If you do that, it would be the same as defying the heavens, and you'll suffer the Heavenly Tribulation. Covering the sky with blood is an action that defies the heavens.
"Otherwise, it is very likely that you will be killed by all the Immortal Mansion Forces in the world," the evil demon said indifferently.
Qin Shi's mouth twitched. He was only saying it casually. Turning everything in the world into one's own backyard?
Was that even possible?
When the clone transformed, hundreds of clones shot out, ferociously like cheetahs on the grassland. As if hunting, they crazily pounced on the World realm experts of the Puppet Group.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
In an instant, the experts of the Puppet Group suffered a devastating blow.
At this moment, Zhang Liang's mouth couldn't help but twitch when he saw this scene from afar.
"This bunch of trash." Zhang Liang clenched his fists in anger.
In the end, Zhang Liang didn't waste his breath. His silhouette flickered and disappeared, appearing in a corner of the Qin Palace. His gaze shifted rapidly, and suddenly, it landed behind a huge boulder. "Hmph, I finally found it?"
Zhang Liang waved his sleeves, and a hidden force smashed the boulder into pieces. Behind the boulder, there was a petite figure curled up, clutching the token given to her by Qin Shi.
"Hehe, so it's you? The one who sent the message?
Seems like that little bastard cares a lot about you?
Then I'll kill you first today. "
Zhang Liang laughed coldly. In the next instant, his silhouette moved like a phantom, appearing in front of Mu Xiaojing. His devil claw pierced towards her fair and jade-like neck.
However, Zhang Liang couldn't help furrowing his brows when he saw that Mu Xiaojing would lose her life with just a little bit of force.
Because Zhang Liang noticed that Mu Xiaojing was extremely calm under his ferocious attack. Even when the devil claw was inches away from her, she didn't even frown.
"This little lass is blind?" Zhang Liang was shocked to see Mu Xiaojing's beautiful eyes dimming down.
"It's good that she's blind. At least you won't be in so much pain before you die." Zhang Liang coldly snorted. In the next instant, his sharp claw pierced out.
Bang!
Unexpectedly, when Zhang Liang was about to pierce Mu Xiaojing's throat, an undercurrent surged out from his body, forming into an emerald viper. It suddenly coiled around Zhang Liang's arm, causing his movements to come to a halt.
"Poison Sovereign?
What do you mean by this? "Zhang Liang coldly said.
The viper coiled around Zhang Liang and coldly said, "Brat, if you don't want to bring trouble to yourself, I advise you not to provoke this little lass."
"What do you mean by that?"
"I don't know. I can't say for sure either. However, this little lass is not simple. I can sense an extremely extraordinary power in her body. In her eyes, that power is terrifying even to me. I dare to say that if you kill this little lass now, you will likely suffer a calamity. At that time, even Mingxuan will not be able to save you."
The Poison Sovereign paused for a moment before continuing, "Moreover, if nothing unexpected happens, it is very likely that you will not be able to kill her. Instead, you will end up helping this little lass."
Zhang Liang's face darkened. Even though he was dissatisfied with the Poison Sovereign's reprimand, he began to hesitate.
Zhang Liang was well aware of the Poison Sovereign's status. Since she was able to make him feel terrified, it proved that this little lass was extraordinary.
Bang!
Without giving Zhang Liang the chance to think, a World stage great growth elder fell from the sky like a dead dog and violently smashed into Zhang Liang's feet.
Qin Shi suddenly appeared in front of Mu Xiaojing like a bolt of lightning. Amidst the cold force from Zhang Liang's demonic claw, a thin line of blood appeared on Mu Xiaojing's fair neck.
Qin Shi's black eyes fiercely churned when he saw the bloody line.
