454: Chapter 454 Dou Sheng Xiao Ding, Wang Ku Makes a Move

"This... how is this possible?"

This scene terrified the two Half-Saints of the Xiao Family. One must know that in the Fighting Qi Continent where Dou Sheng experts rarely appeared, Half-Saints could practically act with impunity.

Yet, a tiny empire actually had the foundation to kill a Half-Saint.

The Two Elders Qian Bai looked at each other. They had originally thought that the Dazheng Dynasty, which dominated the Black-Corner Region, was merely a hollow name.

When they learned that experts from the Xiao Family were going to deal with the Dazheng Empire, the guardian gods of Jia Nan Academy even thought it was making a mountain out of a molehill.

"That bow?" Miss Xiao Yuer said softly; she had seen it once before.

Within the East Sea Ruins, there were ten scrolls and twelve Human Puppets suspended in the air of the True Dragon Hall.

This giant bow had been at the center. She hadn't expected its power to be so terrifying.

Beside her, Xiao Yi Xian's gray-purple eyes flashed with a sharp light; this was simply too frightening.

"You actually dare to shoot and kill a Half-Saint of the Xiao Family?" The remaining two Half-Saint experts had blood splattered across their robes because they hadn't been fast enough to dodge.

In front of the Longevity Hall, the Blood Shadow Clone held the Chaos Bow and gazed at the nearby void, saying in a deep voice, "Since you've come, why hide? Isn't that beneath the status of a Dou Sheng expert!"

As his voice fell, the experts of the Dazheng Empire grew nervous and looked around. "Could there be a Dou Sheng expert hidden in the shadows who hasn't appeared yet?"

In the sky above the Black-Corner Region, the experts of various factions scanned every inch of space with their soul power.

Buzz!

Suddenly, the space rippled like water, and a middle-aged man slowly walked out, followed by two experts.

Their auras were as deep as an abyss, blending with heaven and earth, and an invisible pressure circulated around them.

"Oh, I didn't expect there to really be some. I just said it randomly, and three big fish actually showed up!"

The Blood Shadow Clone said in a low voice.

This immediately caused the surrounding experts to be unable to suppress their laughter.

"Saint Xiao Ding!" He was the elder brother of the Flame Emperor. Rumor had it that he had been cultivating in the Star Realm all this time; no one expected him to be drawn out this time.

Beside him was Thunder Saint Xiao Li, his gaze sinister as he stared at the Blood Shadow Clone in front of the Longevity Hall, his body surrounded by a violent and destructive thunderous aura.

There was also an unnamed Dou Sheng expert.

With three Dou Sheng experts descending, the Dazheng Empire was in danger this time!

"Lord of the Dazheng Empire, Hun Tiandi!" Xiao Ding said coldly.

"Xiao Family's Xiao Ding!" the Blood Shadow Clone replied solemnly.

"According to our intelligence, you were the one who wiped out the Xiao Sect in the Black-Corner Region and the Mo Tie Mercenary Group in Stone Desert City, weren't you?" Xiao Ding's tone was flat, yet it carried an air that brooked no question.

He fully displayed the overbearing nature of the Xiao Family!

"Your Xiao Family killed the vice-chairman of the Darong Chamber of Commerce in our Jia Ma Holy City. This grudge must be avenged!" The Blood Shadow Clone showed no fear at all.

"Fine. You killed my son Xiao Yujie. Today, I shall slaughter the Dazheng Empire to serve as his funerary offerings!"

Upon learning that it was Hun Tiandi who had wiped out the Xiao Sect and killed Xiao Yujie, Xiao Li could no longer suppress the killing intent within him.

In front of the Longevity Hall, the Blood Shadow Clone said in a deep voice, "Teacher, Dragon King Ao Guang, let the slaughter begin!"

"Understood!" Elder Dan and Dragon King Ao Guang nodded.

As soon as the Blood Shadow Clone finished speaking, Xiao Ding knew something was wrong. Dragon King Ao Guang's figure flashed and disappeared from the front of the Longevity Hall!

"Not good!" Xiao Ding's expression changed, and he struck out with a thunderous palm!

Elder Dan's figure swayed as he charged toward Xiao Li. The space before the two Dou Sheng experts shattered as they vanished into the endless void to battle.

Otherwise, the entire Black-Corner Region would be destroyed.

"It's truly incredible that the tiny Dazheng Empire actually has two Dou Sheng experts. However, the remaining Dou Sheng is enough to change the course of the battle!"

In the distance, Xiao Yi Xian mocked, and Miss Xiao Yuer beside her nodded slightly.

In the air, the third Dou Sheng expert gave a wicked smile and vanished, rushing toward the Blood Shadow Clone. Who could stop him?

The Blood Shadow Clone certainly couldn't. With the other two Dou Saints occupied, if he killed Hun Tiandi, they would surely come to the rescue!

However, things did not go as expected; Elder Dan and Dragon King Ao Guang did not return.

Instead of retreating, the Blood Shadow Clone stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes burning as he watched the spatial fluctuations from which the Dou Sheng expert emerged.

The Xiao Family Dou Sheng instinctively felt something was wrong, but he couldn't pinpoint the problem. A flash of ferocity crossed his eyes.

Since you want to die, then die!

Instantly, a giant palm spanned the sky, descending toward the Blood Shadow Clone's head!

What was he doing?

Boom!

At the critical moment, ripples appeared in the space behind the Blood Shadow Clone, and a boundless death qi erupted. A bone palm as black as ink emerged, as if returning from hell itself.

The palm slammed into the giant palm of the Xiao Family Dou Sheng.

Air currents exploded, and deep, bottomless cracks appeared on the ground. Under the connection of the Heaven-Severing Formation Map, the Earth Dragon Veins of the Black-Corner Region were absorbed and nourished.

The ground was restored to its original state.

"Who are you?" The Xiao Family Dou Sheng's gaze was terrifying as his figure retreated rapidly, his voice like a clap of thunder.

The experts of the various factions watching from the sidelines were all stunned!

"A third Dou Sheng? How is this possible?"

"The Dazheng Empire has three Dou Sheng experts. Forget about the Jia Ma Empire and the Northwest Continent, even as a faction in the Central Plains, having three Dou Saints would make them a top-tier power!"

"Too terrifying, too powerful!"

Cries of surprise rang out. Xiao Yi Xian and Miss Xiao Yuer, who had previously thought the Dazheng Empire was finished, were now left dumbfounded.

"Wang Ku, from this moment on, you are the Commander of the Dazheng Empire's Fourth Legion!" the Blood Shadow Clone said in a deep voice.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Long live the Emperor! Long live, long live!" Wang Ku, dressed in black robes, gave a respectful bow.

"Go and fight, Wang Ku. Let the Fighting Qi Continent know your name!"

Swish!

Wang Ku made his first move, charging toward the Xiao Family Dou Sheng in the air. The terrifying aftershocks of the battle caused the mountains of the Black-Corner Region to crumble and tremble.

Black gas billowed from him, making him look extremely fierce.

He then led the Xiao Family Dou Sheng into the void, where they could fight with their full strength!

Inside the Time Tower!

The Dou Zun, Dou Zong, and Dou Huang experts brought by the three Half-Saints had all had their Fighting Qi sealed and were confined within the Time Tower.

Venerable Qingyun and Venerable Qingyang looked at each other, both seeing the terror in each other's eyes. This Emperor's methods were far too terrifying.

Previously, within the Spirit-Devouring Heaven Formation Map, the Xiao Family experts had been separated. Under the operation of the Array Emperor, the formation map was connected to the Time Tower.

The Dazheng Empire experts hidden within had captured them all in two-on-one battles and locked them up under guard.

Now, Venerable Qingyun and Venerable Qingyang felt a profound awe for Hun Tiandi, which was more akin to worship.

Since joining Dazheng, their strength had exploded. They had reached Nine-Star Dou Zun within the Time Tower and had even completed the Seventh Change of the Dou Zun. As long as they cultivated the final two changes,

They could reach the heavens in a single step and become a Saint through the Nine Changes!

Far away in the Central Plains, Qingyunzi had also received resources from the Dazheng Empire, and his strength was advancing by leaps and bounds.

Venerable Qing Feng was covered in a murderous aura; in the previous battle, he had personally killed a Dou Zun expert before capturing this group.

"Keep a close watch on them and await His Majesty's orders!" Venerable Qingyun said in a deep voice.

He then led Venerable Qingyang toward the Longevity Hall at extreme speed.

"Your Majesty, everyone has been captured!" Venerable Qing Feng said respectfully.

"Good!" The Blood Shadow Clone nodded slightly, his gaze falling on the two Half-Saint experts in the air as he suddenly gave a wicked smile.

"Go and stop one of them. I want to kill another!" the Blood Shadow Clone said coldly, slowly raising the Chaos Bow in his hand.

Swish!

Venerable Qing Feng and Venerable Qingyang rushed toward one of the Half-Saints. They didn't seek to defeat him, only to stall him!

"Not good, run! That fiend is going to shoot again!" The remaining Half-Saint expert's expression changed, and he retreated repeatedly, fleeing into the distance.

Among the three Half-Saint experts, the Xiao Family Half-Saint who was shot first had been the strongest, having already reached the level of a High-level Half-Saint.

He had been only half a step away from reaching the level of a true Dou Sheng.

The Half-Saint being besieged by the two Venerables was a Mid-level Half-Saint, and his strength was even a notch higher than the one fleeing.
