989: Escape in a panic

“Qing Yunzi, how dare you underestimate me so much?!”

Above Nether City, Ambros was furious, his eyes practically spitting out tangible flames of rage.

Late Stage Ninth-rank cultivators were existences standing at the pinnacle of the Netherworld, each possessing unfathomable power and exalted status.

For how many years had it been since Ambros last felt such humiliation? Even the Great Priest of his race, or Senior High Priest Tiemoluo, the leader of their race, had always treated him with respect.

Yet now, Qing Yunzi, who was also a Late Stage Ninth-rank cultivator like him, had humiliated him so much, saying he was unworthy?

“When this old man was dominating the world, you were nothing more than a little bug that had just crawled out of an eggshell. Underestimate you? Are you even worthy?!”

“In this old man’s eyes, among your Dead Spirit Race, besides that old fellow High Priest Tiemoluo, everyone else is mere ants.”

Qing Yunzi stood proudly in the air, completely unconcerned by Ambros’s fury, and instead mocked him mercilessly.

“Good, good, good!”

“Old scoundrel, you are so arrogant; it seems you truly wish to provoke a war between our two races!”

Hearing this, Ambros’s anger turned into laughter, his voice incredibly cold as he said:

“Once this Lord returns and reports to the Great Priest, your Human Race can just wait for our Holy Race’s army to descend upon you!”

“You despicable, inferior race, you will know what fear is then!”

As he spoke, Ambros turned to fly away from the spot.

“Since this old man has appeared today, do you think you can leave?”

Seeing this, Qing Yunzi sneered, his Aura rising infinitely as if a great sun pressing down on the sky:

“When you sent that little bug Kahn to ambush my junior Vast Treasure True Lord in Canglan City, the peace treaty we signed earlier was already torn up by you.”

“If you want to fight, then fight! Today, this old man will use you as a sacrifice to mark the beginning!”

Before his words finished, Qing Yunzi’s long sleeves fluttered as he stretched out his palm and remotely grabbed towards Ambros.

Boom!

An enormous magical energy palm descended from the sky, carrying an incredibly terrifying Aura, enveloping Ambros.

Before this giant magical energy palm even arrived, the terrifying might it exuded had already sealed off the space below.

If any cultivator below Ninth-rank were caught within it at this moment, they would likely be directly crushed into a meat paste by this terrifying might.

“You…”

Ambros never expected that Qing Yunzi would attack so suddenly, and moreover, he had pinned the blame for Vast Treasure True Lord’s death on their Dead Spirit Race!

Shameless!

Absolutely shameless!

“Qing Yunzi, don’t push your luck too far!”

Ambros roared, his Qi surging wildly, as he swung his arms and fiercely punched the magical energy palm descending from the sky.

Rumble!

As these two punches were thrown, space trembled, as if two mountains had struck out horizontally, carrying the free magical energy in the world like surging waves towards the magical energy palm.

“Pushing my luck too far? Are you even human?”

Qing Yunzi sneered, and the palm he had extended suddenly flipped over, then waved forward remotely.

The giant magical energy palm that had condensed directly collided with the two punches Ambros threw.

Boom!

Under Ambros’s shocked gaze, his counterattack was directly shattered by the giant magical energy palm, and then the scattered magical energy turbulence was confined and rushed towards him.

In a daze, Ambros only felt a colossal wave, reaching the sky, crashing towards him, threatening to destroy him.

“Damn it!”

“How is this old fellow Qing Yunzi so strong?”

Ambros was terrified in his heart, his gaze more solemn than ever before.

If he didn’t go all out at this moment, he might truly fall here in Nether City today.

“Kill! Kill! Kill!!”

Ambros roared, his body, over three meters tall, suddenly expanded to six meters, and two additional arms grew out from under his left and right ribs.

“Shatter for me!”

His six arms clenched into fists and swung forward, the terrifying power fluctuations distorting light. At this moment, Ambros vaguely seemed to transform into a blood-red sun, exuding a scorching, unrivaled might.

The descending giant magical energy palm and the accompanying magical energy turbulence were forcefully shattered by his six arms.

“Mere parlor tricks!”

However, seeing this, Qing Yunzi’s expression remained calm. He simply flipped the palm he had extended, then waved it forward remotely.

“Wind, come!”

At this moment, Qing Yunzi seemed to become the master of this surrounding world. With a single command, countless wind blades appeared out of thin air, condensing into a ferocious Dragon a thousand meters long, charging directly towards Ambros.

Wherever this wind blade Dragon passed, long, narrow, dark fissures were carved into space. Its mere might could crush any existence below Ninth-rank to death, and countless people in Nether City trembled under this terrifying power.

“Shatter for me!”

Seeing the wind blade Dragon approaching, Ambros roared, and dense blood-red light flickered on his six-meter-tall body.

Then, as he swung his six arms, these blood-red lights also moved with them, shooting out and expanding against the wind, transforming into six giant worms with heads as large as city gates, confronting the wind blade Dragon.

The next second, the wind blade Dragon and the giant worms began to battle.

The Dragon swung its tail, clawed, and bit, each strike tearing a giant worm in half, but the blood-red light covering the worms’ bodies possessed incredibly strong regenerative power. As their color dimmed, they instantly restored the worms to their original state.

For a time, the seven colossal beings collided, stirring up wind and clouds, and the entire area around Nether City became dark and chaotic.

“Hahaha!”

“Qing Yunzi, you, the Human Race’s strongest, are nothing more than this!”

Seeing the attack stalemate, Ambros laughed wildly, his laughter filled with immense satisfaction.

However, in response to this…

“You talk too much nonsense!”

A cold light flashed in Qing Yunzi’s eyes, and he moved his foot as if shrinking the ground, instantly appearing before Ambros.

“This old man just wanted to play with you. Do you really think your strength allows you to be arrogant in front of me?”

Amidst his sneer, Qing Yunzi threw a punch, and the entire world fell silent at that moment.

Ambros, who was laughing wildly, suddenly felt a great terror descend. His pupils, as large as copper bells, suddenly contracted to the size of needlepoints, and then his six arms simultaneously crossed in front of him.

The next second, a dazzling punch light crashed down, instantly striking Ambros’s body.

Crack!

With a cracking sound, Ambros’s six arms, which he had used to block, directly shattered into pieces.

At this moment, an indescribable sense of crisis frantically pounded Ambros’s mind.

Between life and death, his body leaned back, avoiding his heart, which was targeted by the punch light, while frantically burning his own blood Qi.

Bang!

The next second, after paying the price of half his body being blown apart, Ambros, with only his torso and head remaining, instantly fled a hundred miles away.

The vitality of a Late Stage Ninth-rank powerhouse was extremely terrifying. Even with half his body gone, Ambros did not die, though his Qi became incredibly weak.

“Damn it! Damn it!”

Ambros looked at Qing Yunzi with venomous eyes. With half his body destroyed and his blood Qi burned, such injuries would take at least a decade to recover.

“Qing Yunzi, you will pay the price for what you have done today!”

Leaving behind a cruel threat, Ambros continued to burn his blood Qi, then turned and exploded with extreme speed, fleeing.

If he continued to fight, he would truly die here!!
