907: Fun People
Boom boom boom!!!
Rolling waves of Qi shot straight into the sky, and terrifying vibrations echoed through the clouds.
In Wanshou City under the night sky, countless sleeping people were awakened by the terrifying commotion.
The awakened crowd, without even bothering to dress properly, ran out of their houses and stood in their courtyards or on the streets, looking far into the direction from which the commotion arose.
They saw a giant mushroom cloud slowly dissipating in the sky above the west of the city, covering almost half of the sky.
Even from a distance, everyone could feel the terrifying power contained within that mushroom cloud.
"What is that? How could a dark cloud appear in Wanshou City? And so close to the ground?"
"Oh my! This is definitely a battle between cultivators of unimaginable strength. Why haven't the city's law enforcement teams gone to stop it?"
"Such a terrifying feeling, even from this far away it makes me feel a bit breathless. Where did such powerful cultivators come from, and why are they fighting?"
"Oh my, with such a terrifying commotion, the west side of the city won't be reduced to ruins, will it?!"
In the night, countless people cried out in alarm, staring at the sky with faces full of terror.
And these were just those who were far away; those who were in the west of Wanshou City, feeling the terrifying battle fluctuations up close, couldn't even bother to think about what was happening. Each one wished they had two more legs, fleeing frantically from the area, fearing they would be caught in the aftermath.
The palpable pressure that enveloped the entire surrounding area, even though it wasn't directed at them, made them feel as if they were being targeted by a Vicious Beast at the top of the food chain, utterly terrifying.
And some cultivators in this area, except for a few powerful ones, basically fled like ordinary people.
"What exactly happened?"
"How could such a terrifying battle erupt in the Four Symbols Holy Land Branch?"
"What was that Crescent Moon just now? It actually tore space apart, even causing it to collapse!"
"It seems like a giant turtle-snake beast was blocking the Crescent Moon. No, that's Xuanwu. Someone is fighting Mystic Tortoise True Lord of the Four Symbols Holy Land, and Mystic Tortoise True Lord is even at a disadvantage!"
Cultivators of considerable strength, some floating in mid-air, others standing on rooftops, all looked at the Four Symbols Holy Land Branch with solemn expressions.
Unlike other ordinary people who only knew to run and were clueless, they possessed sufficient strength and insight to clearly recognize that two True Lord powerhouses were fighting within the Four Symbols Holy Land Branch.
Moreover, one side of the battle was Mystic Tortoise True Lord, whom the Four Symbols Holy Land had recently dispatched to Wanshou City.
"Things are getting interesting. I heard that in the evening, the Saint of Xuantian Holy Land held a welcoming banquet for Dragon-Slaying True Lord. During the banquet, Huang Zhongming, an Inner Elder of the Four Symbols Holy Land, spoke disrespectfully and was immediately apprehended by Dragon-Slaying True Lord. This matter might be related to Dragon-Slaying True Lord."
A tall old man in luxurious clothes with two long wisps of beard chuckled lightly.
"Hahaha!"
"The other person in the Four Symbols Holy Land Branch is indeed Dragon-Slaying True Lord. I had contact with him when I was deep in the Demon Beast Forest; I remember his Aura."
"I also heard about the welcoming banquet. Huang Zhongming, the Inner Elder of the Four Symbols Holy Land, publicly questioned Dragon-Slaying True Lord, accusing him of being a Demonic Path member, and was subdued in a single encounter."
"Originally, I thought the Four Symbols Holy Land would be furious and challenge Dragon-Slaying True Lord, but I didn't expect Dragon-Slaying True Lord's temper to be so volatile that he directly attacked."
A rough-looking man on the roof next to the old man said gleefully.
"Isn't this normal?"
"Dragon-Slaying True Lord is not yet thirty years old; his temperament is different from us old folks."
Next to the rough man, a burly man in short attire, with his arms crossed, said with approval:
"Dragon-Slaying True Lord has enough strength, how could he endure such disrespect? After today, the Four Symbols Holy Land's face will probably be swollen!"
Although the Four Symbols Holy Land is one of the Eight Great Sacred Grounds in the Netherworld, its reputation is quite notorious compared to other Holy Lands.
Most of the people from the Four Symbols Holy Land who travel outside are arrogant and domineering, bullying others by relying on the Holy Land's name.
Therefore, upon seeing the Four Symbols Holy Land suffer a setback today, everyone became entertained.
Otherwise, someone would have already gone down to investigate the situation or mediate.
After all, in Wanshou City, the Holy Land-level forces stationed there are not just the Four Symbols Holy Land; besides the Xuantian Holy Land, which has always been at odds with the Four Symbols Holy Land, several other Holy Lands could also gather a few True Lord powerhouses to help.
It's just that now, everyone is busy watching the show.
...
...
At the same time.
The giant mushroom cloud covering the Four Symbols Holy Land Branch dissipated with the wind, and the stirred dust below slowly settled, revealing a terrifying deep pit on the ground.
This deep pit was over a hundred meters in diameter, and the soil was compressed to a metallic sheen. In the center of the large pit, a disheveled figure was half-kneeling.
Drip! Drip!
Blood continuously dripped from Mystic Tortoise True Lord's mouth, forming a small puddle around his knees.
It could be seen that the sleeves on both of Mystic Tortoise True Lord's arms had already been torn into fragments and blown away to who knows where, revealing raw, torn wounds on his arms.
Moreover, the light flame covering his body was as dim as a flickering candle in the wind, completely lacking the terrifying Aura it had before.
"Cough cough!"
His chest heaved violently twice, and Mystic Tortoise True Lord coughed up two mouthfuls of blood, propping himself up with one hand, he shakily tried to stand.
Tap tap tap!
Just then, he suddenly heard footsteps, and the next second, a shadow enveloped him.
Looking up, he saw at the edge of the large pit, a hateful figure with a malicious smile on his face, looking down at him from above.
"Mystic Tortoise True Lord, your turtle shell isn't hard enough!"
"Just one sword strike made you look so pathetic. I'm really curious, where did you get the confidence to face me alone? Hurry and call out your helpers."
"Otherwise, if I accidentally use too much force and kill you later, you'll have nowhere to cry."
Wang Chen looked down at Mystic Tortoise True Lord with a mocking tone.
"Ah! You damned fellow!"
Upon hearing Wang Chen's arrogant words, Mystic Tortoise True Lord roared in anger. His eyes turned blood red, and the light flame that had dimmed on his body suddenly expanded, instantly transforming into a terrifying crimson.
At the same time, the turtle-snake phantom that was shattered by the Crescent Moon Slash reappeared.
"Die for me!"
Boom!
The turtle-snake phantom suddenly charged out, carrying a heavy Aura like a mountain, rushing towards Wang Chen at a terrifying speed.
Boom!
However, the next second, as Wang Chen swung the Dragon Slaying Sword in his hand, the rapidly approaching turtle-snake phantom was instantly intercepted, then struck down and sent flying back towards Mystic Tortoise True Lord at an even faster speed.
Mystic Tortoise True Lord, who had just stood up, didn't even have time to react before he was hit by his own attack.
