Chapter 623: Chapter 254: Stunning Everyone, The Legion Returns
CRACK! CRACK!
The sharp crack of shattering bones echoed clearly in everyone’s ears.
She wanted to scream from the excruciating pain, but no sound would come out.
She could only watch helplessly as her body was destroyed inch by inch.
Finally, the force suddenly converged on her waist.
CRACK—!
Her spine was forcibly twisted into a pretzel!
A flash of white light, and Zhao Qing’s figure disappeared. Another bronze fragment fell from mid-air.
Dead silence.
A brief, dead silence fell over the battlefield.
Wei Hao and the remaining three team members felt a chill run down their spines, as if they had been plunged into an icy cavern.
They raised their heads in utter terror, looking at the giant skeleton floating above the altar, its entire body wreathed in black soul flames.
That was the creature that had just brutally killed Zhao Qing, a stealth-type Martial Artist, with a single thought!
Ah Qiang slowly retracted his raised bone claw.
From within its massive, hollow skull, two cold soul flames apathetically swept over the trembling ants on the ground.
His master’s order was to leave no one alive.
If he let anyone escape, forget what his master would do—he would never be able to forgive himself!
"AHHH—!"
Amidst this suffocating despair, Wei Hao suddenly let out a beast-like roar.
His eyes were bloodshot, and his black hair whipped about as if in a gale. Behind him, the towering phantom of a War God wreathed in blood-red flames erupted into view!
Under the immense pressure of death, he had disregarded the consequences and directly activated his forbidden trump card, [Soul-Burning Battle Shadow], which burned his Primordial Spirit!
Looking like a man possessed, his aura surged, instantly breaking through the bottleneck of the Late Stage of the Divine Realm and reaching a whole new level.
"Don’t give up!!"
"We still have a..."
He wanted to say that they still had a chance, if only they could risk everything to kill the one in command!
However, he would never finish his sentence.
A black Death Ray, thinner than a strand of hair, shot out silently from the tip of the bone scepter in Ah Qiang’s hand. It instantly crossed the distance and pierced right through the center of Wei Hao’s brow.
Wei Hao’s voice stopped abruptly.
The frenzied expression on his face froze in an instant.
The next moment, the phantom of his Primordial Spirit, which had been burning with raging flames, collapsed with a boom, like a punctured balloon.
His entire body turned into a flash of white light and vanished.
In the split second before his brain was completely scrambled by the Death Ray, the teleportation mechanism of Longyin Academy saved his life.
An instant kill!
He didn’t even have a chance to use his trump card!
This scene was the last straw that broke the camel’s back.
The color instantly drained from the faces of Jian Lei and the two other remaining members, their eyes holding nothing but endless fear and despair.
THUD!
Jian Lei was the first to drop the battered Tower Shield in his hand and fall to his knees.
The other two quickly followed suit, dropping their weapons and putting their hands on their heads, their bodies trembling like leaves in the wind.
"Don’t... don’t kill us! We surren—"
However, what answered them was Ah Qiang’s cold, merciless will, and... a swarming ocean of white bones.
Ah Qiang felt an unparalleled sense of satisfaction welling up in his chest.
Empowered by the [Frenzy] his master had granted him, he felt... he was on a whole other level compared to when he was in the Painful Labyrinth!
Facing these weak humans, he seemed to have rediscovered that old feeling of looking down on everything, of erasing others with a casual wave of his hand.
’My master calls me Ah Qiang, and I will gladly kneel and bow my head.’
’But you ants... what right do you have to call me anything?’
The battle was over within ten seconds of it starting.
Flashes of white light appeared one after another.
Before the team members who were about to kneel and beg for mercy could even finish their pleas, they were hacked to death by the swarming Curse Bone Race or had their flesh melted away by the acid of the Rot Eye Race.
In short, it was all over.
The wind blew through the camp, rustling a few dry leaves.
Dead silence once again descended upon the area around the massive altar.
Seven faintly glowing bronze fragments lay quietly on the ground.
「Meanwhile, in the Longyin Academy conference room.」
All the examiners stared in shock at the light screen, watching the battle that had ended in an instant—a battle that could only be described as a massacre.
After a long moment, Hou Guanghe shook his head and looked at Zhu Mingyi beside him, who wore an equally dazed expression.
"Zhu, I... am starting to understand you a little now."
Zhu Mingyi, his face a mask of shock as his entire worldview was overturned, was snapped back to his senses by the remark. "Huh? Understand... understand what?"
On the light screen, the undead sovereign with its terrifying aura slowly descended before Lin Ye, knelt on one knee, and respectfully bowed its massive skull.
A hoarse voice traveled through the screen and echoed in the ears of the onlookers.
"I have not failed my mission, Master."
Immediately after, the hundreds of terrifying alien creatures surrounding them once again knelt in unison, bowing their heads in submission to the young man.
Watching this scene unfold, Hou Guanghe let out a long breath.
"It’s just like you said before. Keeping this kid from facing the other geniuses head-on is a form of protection."
He paused, then added in a complex tone, "It really... is a form of protection."
As he said this, everyone else in the conference room subconsciously nodded in deep agreement.
Sun Lie watched the screen as Lin Ye gave a casual wave of his hand, and the Alien Race Legion—a force capable of easily annihilating a small city—vanished into thin air. He couldn’t help but click his tongue.
"Setting everything else aside, just this ability to directly control so many alien races... If he were to use that on a real Celestial Abyss battlefield..."
"I... I can’t even imagine that scene."
’What a terrifying, cataclysmic disaster that would be?’
