Chapter 236: Chapter 236: Utterly Inhumane Chapter 236: Chapter 236: Utterly Inhumane âThe Arrayâs power is comparable to the second level of the Tianyuan Realm! Even more fearsome than the Tianyun Sectâs Formation!â
Feeling the Arrayâs fearsome power, Huanyang trembled all over in alarm.
The Empireâs army was terrified; they had all witnessed the fearsome Formation of the Tianyun Sect, which would disintegrate them into ash and smoke the instant they approached.
Now, not knowing the full extent of the Celestial Demonsuppressing Formationâs fearsome power, no one dared to charge forward.
âDuan Tian Hun, do you think your Empireâs army is powerful, or is my Sectâs Formation stronger?â Murong Tianlie flashed to the top of the massive Array, sneering coldly at Duan Tian Hun.
âThe Celestial Demonsuppressing Formation!â Duan Tian Hunâs face was filled with shock, taking a long time before he could finally exclaim.
âThe Celestial Demonsuppressing Formation?â Ye Cangqiong was taken aback for a moment, then said in shock, âIsnât that the Formation that mysteriously disappeared in the Divine Valley years ago?â
âOutrageous! It was you, you old bastard, who secretly stole the Array book! Cough cough!â Duan Tian Hun said with gritted teeth, coughing violently twice and spitting out blood from being too agitated.
âStole?â Mu Tianyun and many other powerful beings looked at Duan Tian Hun in astonishment, oblivious to the incident with the Celestial Demonsuppressing Formation.
âFather, what is going on here?â Duan Wuqing asked curiously, having never heard Duan Tian Hun mention it before.
âYears ago, the four Great Empires fought over Divine Valley, leading to chaos. The Great General, while retreating from Divine Valley with his troops, stumbled upon an array book in a cave, which was indeed the Celestial Demonsuppressing Formation! At that time, we encountered a sixth-order ferocious beast with extreme power. Left with no choice, we had to retreat from Divine Valley swiftly. The beast pursued us fiercely, causing heavy casualties among the soldiers. However, once the beast left, the array book disappeared without a trace, and now it turns out this old bastard stole it!â Duan Tian Hun grew angrier as he spoke.
âThereâs no doubt! That array book was the Celestial Demonsuppressing Formation!â Ye Cangqiong said furiously.
âIf you didnât dare to take it, my Sect had to take it! After a trip to Divine Valley, my Sect indeed obtained a lot of treasures,â Murong Tianlie said with a cold sneer, not denying the accusation.
As he spoke, Murong Tianlie injected terrifying power into the Array, causing the massive Array to flash with blue light violently, trembling intensely, and after a while, an even more terrifying aura swept out.
At the same time, as Murong Tianlie infused his power into the Array, the Array expanded once more!
The horror power that spread out already reached the Second Layer of the Tianyuan Realm!
Such a fearsome Formation was far more terrifying than that of the Tianyun Sect.
âCome on, let my Sect see the great strength of the Empireâs army!â Murong Tianlie said in a mocking and cold sneer, looking extremely arrogant.
âGreat General, what should we do?â Luan Shen asked with a frown, as no one could break through such a horrific Formation.
Ye Cangqiongâs face was twisted in ferocity. He didnât know what to do either. Feng Wuchen, who knew about Formations, was dead, and the others simply lacked the power to break the Array.
Forcing their way through the Array was even more impossible!
The Shuiyue Empireâs army, just when hopes had been ignited, was once more shattered!
With absolutely no solution, Murong Tianlieâs strength was terrifying, and the Celestial Demonsuppressing Formation was horrific. No one was a match for them.
The venue fell silent, deathly still, with only the heavy and fearful atmosphere lingering.
Seeing no one speak, Murong Tianlie continued with a cold sneer, âWhatâs the matter? Such a vast Empire and no one knows how to break the Formation? If not, my Sect wonât be polite!â
As he spoke, Murong Tianlieâs voice became extremely heavy, with a fierce killing intent spreading out.
âBuzz buzz!â
The power of the Array suddenly burst forth, and the ground shook violently, with countless cracks madly bursting and spreading from the edge of the Array.
âEveryone, be careful! Retreat fast!â Ye Cangqiong shouted loudly, looking extremely grave.
The army retreated in fear. They simply couldnât withstand the power bursting from the Array.
âWhoosh whoosh whoosh!â
âBuzz buzz!â
The massive Array flashed dazzling blue light as Murong Tianlie slowly raised his hands. The massive Array suddenly blasted out a great wave of terrifying energy, shooting out in all directions, causing the ground to tremble and collapse violently.
Seeing the vast expanse of terrifying energy, the soldiers fled in horror, and the scene was thrown into extreme chaos.
âQuick, get out of the way!â Huanyang shouted loudly. The Sky Shadow cavalry and soldiers of the Black Flag Army, along with the Empireâs high-ranking officials, all flew high into the sky.
âBoom boom boom!â
âAhhh!â
The terrible energy bombarded wildly, and the Empireâs army suffered massive casualties. The sounds of explosions, trembling, and screams mixed together, weaving a song of death.
The situation was extremely tragic, with bodies everywhere, too gruesome to bear.
Watching the many soldiers massacred, Duan Tian Hun and other senior members of the Empire as well as Mu Tianyun and other powerful cultivators all clenched their teeth in anger, wishing they could fight to the death.
Murong Tianlieâs merciless massacre was extremely cruel, losing all semblance of humanity.
âOutrageous!â Huanyang and Luan Shen, along with the soldiers, were filled with extreme rage, clenching their fists tight, but they were helpless, only able to watch many soldiers die tragically.
âWorse than beasts!â Xiao Qingqing said in terrified anger.
âEmperor, letâs fight them. If we continue like this, all of our Empireâs soldiers will die!â Luan Shen couldnât bear it any longer.
Yang Tianxian shook his head and said, âThe power of the Formation is too fearsome. We have no power to break the Array, forcing our way through will only lead to certain death.â
âAre we just going to watch as our soldiers get slaughtered?â Leng Mucheng said angrily, his face as ferocious as a wild beast.
Despair! Utter despair!
âBoom boom boom!â
âBuzz buzz!â
Wave after wave of terrifying power surged outward, the earth bombarded in madness, and countless soldiers met their gruesome deaths.
In less than a minute, already tens of thousands of soldiers were lost, the destructive power was extremely terrifying.
âMurong Tianlie! Stop at once!â Duan Tian Hun bellowed in fury.
âWhat, does it hurt your heart? Now, even if you want to submit to me, itâs too late! I have decided to completely annihilate your Yanhuo Empire! Haha! Enjoy it!â Murong Tianlie sneered, his laughter growing wild and arrogant toward the end.
His ruthless methods were outrageous.
Meanwhile, various armies of the Shuiyue Empire, along with the powerful individuals from the empireâs many factions, led personally by Lei Jue, were already feeling the outskirts of Yanhuo City!
Lei Zhenfeng had been killed, and as a prince of the Shuiyue Empire and also the son of Lei Zhenfeng, how could Lei Jue remain indifferent?
However, even with Lei Jue leading the empireâs army here, it was of no avail.
Against such a terrifying array, no matter how many soldiers came, they were destined to die.
âAvenge the emperor!â Shouted the Shuiyue Empireâs army in unison, their voices thundering to the skies.
âPrince Lei Jue, have you also come to seek death?â Murong Tianlie asked with a cold laugh, his icy gaze sweeping over Lei Jue below.
âThe war between the two nations started all because LĂŒ Liang stirred up trouble, Duan Emperor, letâs cease the war!â Lei Jue turned to Duan Tian Hun and said.
âLei Zhenfeng is dead, the war between our two nations has already ceased, we have a common enemy!â Duan Tian Hun said with a heavy voice. With the death of Lei Zhenfeng, the great war between the two nations had also come to an end.
âThen come and meet your deaths together!â Murong Tianlie said with a fierce, cold smile.
âBoom! Boom! Boom!â
The terrifying array continued its mad bombardment; the casualties among the soldiers of both nations were dire, and even powerful cultivators struggled to avoid death, as the numbers of the dead rose terrifyingly fast.
Within the array, seeing so many soldiers dying tragically, the disciples of Tai Xu Sect and Fenglei Sect were already pale with extreme horror.
No one could have anticipated the situation would develop into such a dire strait, nor did they expect Murong Tianlie to be so brutally inhumane.
But they had no choice, for they were disciples of Tai Xu Sect.
They blamed themselves for not seeing through Murong Tianlieâs deep deception. The disciples had always considered him to be a kind old man, a sect master who valued righteousness above all!
By the time they fully understood him, it was too late; there was no way back.
âDuan Tian Hun, it seems you are quite at leisure,â Murong Tianlie said coldly, his fierce gaze sweeping towards Duan Tian Hun and the others.
âWhoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!â
Upon speaking, Murong Tianlie suddenly waved his hand, and streaks of terrifying blue energy shot out like lightning.
âEvade!â Huanyang shouted, as the soldiers hastened to use their instantaneous movement to dodge.
âBoom! Boom! Boom!â
âHum! Hum!â The terrifying blue energy struck the walls behind Yanhuo City, which in the blink of an eye was left unrecognizable, blasted with huge pits.
Feng Wuchenâs corpse, too, fell with the collapsing gates.
As Feng Wuchen fell, a faint trace of blood began to surface on his body, but no one noticed.
âIndeed, your movement technique is exceptional, but I want to see how long you can dodge! I will personally annihilate the Sky Shadow cavalry and the Black Flag Army!â Murong Tianlie sneered, his hand continuously waving.
âWhoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!â
âHum! Hum!â
A massive swarm of blue energy, thousands of strikes in number, each containing terrifying power, crazily shot out, with a series of ear-piercing sonic booms filling the void, the power to destroy worlds had everyone in despair.
A dense and frightening sea of energy, if directed at the army, one could only imagine how many soldiers would perish!
The terrifying array, controlled by Murong Tianlie, was extreme in its horror!
Faced with such a massive expanse of energy, the soldiers of Sky Shadow cavalry and the Black Flag Army were thoroughly intimidated, the formidable pressure nearly choking them.
Even though the soldiers possessed the technique of instantaneous movement, they could not guarantee they could evade such an immense quantity of blue energy.
If they could not evade, and were hit, they would surely be blasted into a mist of blood!
Each strike of blue energy held the power of the First Layer of Tianyuan Realm! Given the cultivation of these soldiers, they were simply unable to withstand it.
âQingqing! Quickly, take Aunt Xiao and Xiao Xiao away! Hurry!â Liu Qingyang shouted in horror.
Miao Qingqingâs tears flowed down her face in fright; in such a desperate situation, her mind went blank.
âQuickly take the emperor away!â Yang Tianxian shouted in horror from atop a massive rock.
âSpread out! Quick, Mu Cheng, take the emperor away!â Huanyang yelled in panic.
Everyone was frantic with urgency, extremely tense.
The soldiers, in their rush, spurred their full strength, ready to execute an instantaneous movement to escape.
âHum! Hum!â
At that moment, as all the soldiers teetered on the brink of fear and despair, a destructive aura burst forth all of a sudden, shaking the earth violently like a dragon awakening, brilliant blood light flashed out explosively from the ruins of the city gate.
The terrifying power erupted in a flash, high in the sky, that mass of blue energy bizarrely became still.
