Chapter 741 - 402: Marching Toward Death!
Chapter 741: Chapter 402: Marching Toward Death!
The light that resembled a full moon appeared only for a fleeting moment.
The moment was so brief that one might feel as if they were merely seeing things.
No trace of Sword Light, no sign of Sword Light, nor did they see General’s Sword Qi that seemed poised to ravage the world and conquer all beings.
Only the sound of hissing... hissing filled the air!
Following the sound, no one knew where it originated from.
A short moment later.
Suddenly, in the ranks opposite Chu Qing and his group, the leading man’s forehead showed a line of blood.
At first, it was just a smear of crimson, but then it expanded rapidly.
He seemed to feel an itch, reaching out to scratch it... yet he realized that his palm was increasingly distant from the itch.
The location of the itch seemed like a place he could never reach in his lifetime.
At the same time, an intense sense of weightlessness overwhelmed him, causing him to fall to the ground involuntarily.
It was only then that he realized... the itch was along the center line of his body, unreachable because he had been split open, and his body was collapsing sideways, naturally making it impossible to reach... he would never be able to reach it in his lifetime!
Moreover, his life had come to an end.
This scene was only the beginning, as one, two, three, four... figures suddenly split into two for reasons unknown.
Each figure was penetrated by blood, drawing a bloodline through the ranks of the Celestial Evil Cult.
This was enough to send anyone into a frightful death.
For they had only seen a flash pass over Chu Qing, but they didn’t know when these people had been sliced in half.
Yet the truly horrifying event was yet to occur.
Seated atop the high platform was the gentle yet nearly indifferent General, and a smear of blood appeared on his brow.
In the next instant, his bisected corpse slid off the chair.
"Dead!?"
Dai Zongming spoke with difficulty.
If the General hadn’t first unleashed a terrifying sword, he would have described the current situation as mere bravado, with the Third Young Master being nothing exceptional.
But now, he couldn’t articulate such blatant lies.
The sword wielded by General carried nearly mountain-smashing, sea-cleaving power; with just that one sword, everyone present today except Chu Qing, even together, would likely not be a match for this individual.
Having witnessed this individual’s prowess, seeing his death became even more shocking.
For Dai Zongming, the Sect Leader of Thousand Flowers Sect, such was the case, let alone others.
"Alliance Leader mighty!!!"
Someone shouted, though it was unclear who, and immediately voices echoed in response.
In an instant, the roaring cheers surged like a mountain and sea.
In contrast, Prince Xi looked at General’s corpse with disbelief.
Unable to refrain from shouting:
"Bad news, General has fallen!
"Spread the orders, retreat for this King!!"
The voice echoed in all directions, even amidst the jubilation of the Righteous Path’s side, it was heard clearly.
Immediately, someone shouted:
"They intend to flee, we pursue!!!"
"With the Alliance Leader present, today the Celestial Evil Cult shall meet its end without return!!"
"Slay the General, eradicate demons, obliterate marauders, the Alliance Leader is the sky above Lingbei Martial World!!!"
Amidst shouts, everyone rushed towards the Celestial Evil Cult, not waiting for Chu Qing to give the order.
The scene swiftly descended into chaos.
Liu Zhaonian’s gaze turned amidst the crowd, arriving beside Chu Qing:
"What’s the plan?"
Chu Qing lifted his gaze to look at him, yet his voice echoed from within Liu’s heart.
"Just go with the flow for now, I have it under control.
"However, do not advance recklessly, maintain proper moderation in progressing and retreating."
Liu Zhaonian paused, realizing that Chu Qing had employed a subtle transmission technique, and was about to nod when Wu Qianhuan’s voice sounded:
"Who are you talking to?"
Liu Zhaonian’s eyes widened in shock.
Could it be... this transmission was group chat?
"It’s Master Liu, right? I saw Master Liu reach Third Brother’s side."
A gentle voice chimed in at this moment.
Liu Zhaonian quickly attempted to speak within his heart:
"It’s me..."
"Indeed it is."
"Greetings, Master Liu."
"..."
Liu Zhaonian found himself momentarily at a loss.
This technique was too profound, wasn’t it?
But it was only the beginning, as a voice soon pierced everyone’s ears:
"Once this battle ends, I need to quickly return to the mountain to enter seclusion for training."
This murmured voice seemed like self-talk.
It was unmistakably Ji Yexue, Sect Leader of Yao Tai Sect.
Chu Qing snorted:
"The battle is far from over, focus on the fight first."
Ji Yexue was startled:
"Is it the Alliance Leader transmitting? Such a exquisite transmission technique..."
"Not too exquisite, just appropriately done."
Ji Yexue paused silently, then spoke in a slightly flustered voice:
"He can hear! I absolutely cannot curse him in my mind, definitely not!"
"... Sect Leader Ji."
Liu Zhaonian suddenly felt embarrassed:
"This transmission technique seems to be based on transmitting inner voice, Sect Leader Ji should be cautious."
"Terrifying!"
Ji Yexue burst out with two words.
As she settled down, everyone heard Ouyang Tianxu’s voice:
"After this battle, the Alliance Leader’s prestige has reached its peak.
"If I take this chance to discuss with Liu Zhaonian, might it be possible to achieve something?"
"What do you hope to accomplish?"
Chu Qing inquired.
"Hmm?"
Ouyang Tianxu was bewildered:
"Alliance Leader?"
"Don’t let your mind wander..."
Chu Qing advised before speaking solemnly:
"I employ the Celestial Sound Transmission Technique to link all of your spirits.
"For mutual message transmission, exchange of information.
"So that orders are carried out without exception!
"This battle is far from over, you must heed my commands, do not act on your own volition!"
