This was the second top expert. He wore a black robe that covered his entire body. His sleeves were embroidered with golden lines. His body exuded a chilling aura as he walked out from the void. His aura was as powerful as that of a ferocious spirit beast.
Spirit seals surrounded his body. He stomped on the ground, causing the sky to tremble. The earth around him cracked and the stone walls collapsed. Several streets sank into the ground.
This was a heretical overlord from the Senluo Temple. Feng Feiyun's Heavenly Phoenix Gaze could see through his black robe and aura.
An Ancient Jiang woman shouted: "The silver palanquin is sinking, the Goddess is about to sink!"
An elder from the Witch God Temple unleashed a witchcraft art. A withered hand reached forward and turned into a giant palm. It wanted to lift the silver palanquin up.
The hunchbacked old man draped in animal skin cackled. He spat out a mouthful of foul air, which was wrapped in evil, filthy, hazy, and bloody aura. It condensed into an evil saber and chopped the big hand that was trying to save the Witch Goddess into pieces.
"Pluff!"
The evil blade cut the elder of the Sorcerer God Shrine into two halves. Fresh blood splattered all over the long street.
This old man in beast skin was too powerful. A casual attack from him killed a powerful shaman, causing the Ancient Jiangs to be stunned.
"How dare you! You dare to harm the Goddess? Do you think our temple has no one?"
Five old men in wizard robes jumped out at the same time. Their hair was white and their skin was yellow. They had lived for a very long time. They took out a cauldron at the same time. Inside was a stream of blood with the souls of strange beasts roaring in a mournful manner. They bared their fangs and brandished their claws, wanting to devour human blood.
These five cauldrons had a great origin. They were artifacts of the Witch God Temple. They were personally crafted by a great sage to refine the bodies of Witch God Knights.
An old man draped in beast skin squatted at the top of the stone castle. His bean-sized eyes revealed a greedy and excited expression as he directly took off the beast skin on his back. There were countless flowing shaman markings on the beast skin, and they were shaped like mountains and rivers, yet also like the veins of the earth.
This was the skin of a spirit beast that had cultivated for two thousand years. Although it wasn't complete, it still carried an incomparably powerful aura. Coupled with the fact that it had been refined by a powerful witchcraft, the power of this beast skin was simply immeasurable.
A spirit beast that had cultivated for two thousand years had the power of an Enlightened Being.
The beast skin flew out and its radiance became extremely hot like clouds. It wrapped around the five cauldrons. It then swelled up and fell into the old man's hand.
Because the beast skin was taken off, the old man's true appearance was revealed. It was less than 1.5 meters tall. He was very skinny. His skin was as black as carbon. Only his eyes had a hint of fire.
A foot-long black beard grew on his chin like tiny snakes, giving off a bloodthirsty and gloomy feeling.
A wizard holding a scepter coldly uttered: "Gu Lida, you dare to come back to the Witch God Barbarian City and harm the Goddess?"
This old man was called Gu Lida. He was the uncle of the previous master of the temple, Grand Wisdom Master Jing Feng. He had lived for more than eight hundred years.
The lifespan of a wizard was very short. Very few could live for more than five hundred years. Gu Lida used living people to refine their life energy for himself. This was a violation of the temple's rules, so he was banished from the temple.
He came back to take the Heavenly Witchcraft Divine Tree from the Heavenly Witchcraft Goddess' body and control the entire temple.
"She's only a little girl. If she really was the Heavenly Witchcraft Goddess, then she wouldn't be so weak. Even an ordinary barbarian could easily kill her. Haha, the temple will fall sooner or later in the hands of a useless goddess like her. It's better for me to have sex with her and use my yang energy to seduce her. I'll take the Heavenly Witchcraft Divine Tree from her body and become the master of the temple." Gu Lida's eyes flashed with a faint red glow.
The palanquin carrying the Heavenly Witchcraft Goddess had already sunk to the bottom of the earth, as if it had been swallowed by a huge beast.
"You court death!"
Chang Daye's golden fur shone brightly, making him look like a golden lion. He roared, causing the entire city to tremble. Gu Lida was quite wary of Chang Daye, and the roar sent him stumbling backward.
He was indeed worthy of being the First Tribe Lord of the Heaven Worship Tribe and the number one expert of the Ancient Jiang Tribe. His roar shook the nine firmaments. He unleashed another punch that tore the earth apart. A silver light emerged from the depths of the earth. The palanquin had sunk for more than fifty meters.
Just as Chang Daye was about to lift the palanquin, a huge black shadow suddenly descended from the sky. It was over a hundred meters tall, and it had a huge black foot that looked like the sole of a giant.
This was a heretical expert hiding in the shadows. He was stronger than Gu Lida and the black-robed cultivator from the Senluo Temple. An ordinary Giant wouldn't be able to unleash such power.
Daye was alarmed and could only stop for now to deal with this black foot.
He was like a golden gorilla, his arms hanging in front of his chest as he roared towards the sky. An unparalleled battle intent erupted from him as he reached out his hands to grab the hundred-meter-long giant foot. Then, he abruptly tore the black giant foot to pieces and smacked it into a black cloud that disappeared into the air.
That was because the expert hidden in the shadows didn't retreat. He attacked again, clashing with Chang Daye through the air. He didn't seem to be fighting with his life on the line. Instead, he just wanted to restrain Chang Daye.
"Daye is the number one expert of the Ancient Jiang Tribe. He can even take nine blows from Battler Marquis without losing. How can there be someone like this in the prefecture who can restrain Daye?"
Mo Chongji was shocked. The battle between Daye and the person in the dark was too frightening. A corner of the Witch God's Barbarian City was destroyed, and dozens of innocent Jiangs died.
Feng Feiyun calmly said: "The four walkers from the Senluo Temple are this strong."
"Didn't they go missing with the heretical king? How can they still be alive?" Chongji asked.
Not many people knew about the heretical king's escape from Bronze Cauldron Mountain. The news hadn't spread yet so only a few knew.
Feng Feiyun didn't want to cause panic so he didn't continue.
Chen Daoran was a bit worried: "Your Excellency, should we take action?
After all, if something happens to the goddess, Ancient Jiang will become even more chaotic. "
"Not right now. There are only three of them and each one is stronger than the last. The weakest is an intermediate Giant, we can't stop them.
Plus, who knows if there are other experts hiding in the dark? "
Feng Feiyun looked at the slowly closing ground with a complicated expression: "Let's wait a bit more, we can lend a hand if necessary."
The palanquin and the goddess sunk into the ground. No one knew if they were crushed to death or taken away. This made the Jiangs in the Witch God's Barbarian City furious.
The 12 Sorcerer God Cavalrymen rode on their Bone Beasts and simultaneously attacked. Their auras condensed together as they stabbed their silver spears towards Gu Lida, but they were blocked by Gu Lida's five Witch Cauldrons.
The five cauldrons spun in the air. Each was three meters tall and had ancient runes carved on them. They emitted a powerful aura.
Gu Lida stood on top of the castle, wearing a beast hide. He had a strange smile on his face as he controlled five cauldrons to fight against the twelve knights. Surprisingly, he wasn't at a disadvantage.
Chen Daoran and Mo Chongji were startled. These three were indeed very strong. Just Gu Lida alone was enough to stop the twelve knights. Feng Feiyun was right, they couldn't do anything. Just a casual attack from the enemy could heavily injure them.
"Tuo Bahong, it's you bastard!"
Chang Dakai tore off the black robe of the Dark Asura Hall evil cultivator and revealed the figure of a man around thirty years old with a white crown on his head. He stood proudly on the broken stone street with an extremely calm and collected expression.
The man named Tuo Bahong smiled faintly. "I'm not a bastard. I'm the 19th Protector Elder of Senluo Temple."
"Where did you take the Goddess?!"
Dakai roared in anger. He raised his saber that weighed more than thirty thousand pounds and swung it at Bahong.
Bahong was an intermediate Giant, one level higher than Dakai. However, his battle prowess was much higher. He didn't give a damn about Dakai at all. He gently took a step back and floated several hundred meters away. He smiled and said: "Jiang barbarians like you are no match for an early Giant. That's why Feng Feiyun can take three slashes from you despite being two levels lower than you.
It's not that Feng Feiyun is strong, it's just that you people are too stupid. No matter how strong a wild boar is, it's still meat for humans. "
"Fuck you!"
Chang Dakai wielded the stone saber in a mighty manner and struck out once more, creating a huge fissure in the ground with one slash. However, he couldn't even touch the hem of Tuo Bahong's robe.
"Attack!"
Feng Feiyun felt that this was the best time to attack. He told Mo Chongji to lead fifty soldiers riding on beasts to fight. These beasts were enough to pose a great threat to Bahong.
At the same time, forty divine intents rushed out of Feng Feiyun's body and gathered the essence of the earth. A yellow gas surrounded his body and he disappeared into the ground.
"Feng Feiyun, where do you think you're going?"
Bahong saw Feng Feiyun sinking into the ground and knew that he wanted to rescue the Heavenly Witchcraft Goddess. He turned his palm into a saber and slashed towards the ground. The saber energy was more than thirty meters long and looked like a heavenly saber. It split the ground dozens of meters deep. Feng Feiyun unleashed a punch from the ground with the runes of ten thousand beasts to shatter the saber energy.
Tuo Bahong wanted to attack again, but he was drowned by the beasts. Fifty gigantic beasts raised their hooves at the same time, wanting to trample him.
"Boom!"
All the beasts missed their target. Tuo Bahong had disappeared from the ground and sunk into the ground.
