79: Chapter 79 Receives Another 20 Million

The Ten Great Yin Marshals.

Five great races.

Over four hundred thousand units.

All assembled.

Zhao Wuji's smile froze on his face.

He looked at the overwhelming grayish-white army opposite him, at those terrifying existences, at that Rank 6 black figure, at those two Rank 6 Impermanences, and at those two Rank 6 Ox-Head and Horse-Face.

His lips trembled slightly.

"Rank 6, it really is Rank 6!"

"But how do you have so many Rank 6 heroes?!"

Su Bai looked at him and spoke indifferently:

"Fighting?"

Zhao Wuji's expression shifted repeatedly.

He thought of the Zhou Family's promise.

He thought of those items that countered Yin Qi.

He thought of his Blazing Sun World, which naturally countered Yin Qi.

He gritted his teeth.

"Fight!"

"I have the Blazing Sun! I have items to counter you! My world specifically counters Yin Qi!"

"Even if you are Rank 6, I have to try!"

In reality, he was thinking that he had no choice but to try; the life-and-death battle had already begun!

He raised his hand, and the Blazing Sun World behind him began to surge.

Three hundred thousand flame units charged simultaneously.

Those Flame Giants shook the earth with every step they took.

Those fire phoenixes added a streak of blazing fire to the sky with every flap of their wings.

Those Blazing Sun Warriors stood in a strict sword formation, their killing intent soaring.

Su Bai looked at the incoming ocean of flames, his face remaining calm.

He softly uttered one word:

"Kill."

The Ghost King was the first to move.

He didn't charge at the flame units but hovered in mid-air and raised his hand.

[Yellow Spring Road] activated.

A grayish-white path extended from the void, leading directly to the core of the Blazing Sun World.

Wherever the path passed, those golden flames began to dim, the scorching aura began to cool, and the strength of those flame units began to drop.

Rank 5 fell to Rank 4, Rank 4 to Rank 3, and Rank 3 to Rank 2.

Black and White Impermanence acted simultaneously.

[Yin-Yang Judgment] was activated.

A massive Yin-Yang diagram unfolded in the void, covering the entire sky.

The moment the fire phoenixes were covered by the Yin-Yang diagram, their bodies began to tremble.

Their flaming souls were being judged.

Three seconds later.

Twelve fire phoenixes fell simultaneously.

Their souls were detained into the Hall of Impermanence.

Ox-Head and Horse-Face charged into the enemy ranks.

Every time Ox-Head's steel fork smashed down, a Flame Giant was crushed into sparks.

Every time Horse-Face's chains coiled, a Blazing Sun Warrior's soul was locked and dragged toward the Tongue-Pulling Hell.

The Day Patrol Envoy hovered high in the sky, his golden eyes scanning the entire battlefield. Any flame unit attempting a sneak attack was killed on the spot by his Golden Token Evil Suppression.

The Night Patrol Envoy moved through the shadows, his silver eyes perceiving everything. Any enemy attempting to hide had their location locked by his Silver Token Soul Lock.

The Four Great Demon Underworld Envoys fought individually.

Wherever Leopard Tail passed, those flame beasts all submitted and turned against their master.

Wherever Bird Beak flew, those flame birds all lost control and crashed into each other.

Fish Gills appeared in the lava rivers, and all those flame aquatic tribes were controlled, turning their weapons against their own.

Wasp's compound eyes saw through everything; those flame insectoids hidden underground were all pierced by Wasp needles.

Lan led two hundred thousand Naga to flank the enemy.

Their tridents pierced the armor of the flame warriors, their mages' incantations shattered the cores of the Flame Giants, and their ocean power clashed with the flames, evaporating into steam that filled the sky.

The Mushroom King stood at the rear, his Spore Domain fully deployed. Those spores landed on wounded clansmen to heal their injuries and on enemies to weaken their strength.

Shadow Blade led one hundred and twenty thousand shadow demons through the battlefield. Their Space Folding allowed them to appear wherever needed, and their shadow energy eroded the cores of those flame units.

The Frost King led twenty-three thousand Ice Crystals to face the Flame Giants head-on. The Extreme Cold Domain clashed with the flames; the collision of ice and fire erupted into a sky full of steam.

The battle lasted for a full hour.

During these forty minutes, Zhao Wuji indeed demonstrated his strength as the 37th ranker.

His Blazing Sun World did indeed counter Yin Qi.

Those flame units' combat power under the sunlight increased by thirty percent compared to normal.

Moreover, he had indeed come prepared.

Three items that countered Yin Qi.

The first was a golden medallion. That medallion hovered above the Blazing Sun World, emitting a dazzling light. Wherever that light reached, the strength of all Yin Qi units dropped by ten percent.

The second was a flame longsword. That sword was held in Zhao Wuji's hand; every slash carried scorching flames capable of incinerating all Yin Qi.

The third was a small phantom of a blazing sun. That phantom hovered behind Zhao Wuji, reflecting the sun of his natal world, temporarily boosting his strength to Rank 6.

But that was it.

When Black and White Impermanence's Hall of Impermanence skill [Pseudo] was activated, Zhao Wuji's resistance completely collapsed.

White Impermanence opened the fate-reversal ledger and lightly made a stroke on it.

Zhao Wuji's lifespan was instantly halved.

His aura temporarily dropped from Rank 6 back to Rank 5.

Black Impermanence's soul-locking chain took the opportunity to wrap around his neck.

The Ghost King drew his ghost king sword and slashed down.

That phantom of the blazing sun was shattered by a single strike.

Zhao Wuji's body was sliced in half.

The peak Rank 5 Blazing Sun Creator had fallen.

[Zhao Wuji is dead]

[Life-and-death battle ended]

[Winner: Su Bai]

[Commencing world devouring]

The Blazing Sun World began to collapse.

Those flame units still resisting froze in place as they saw their Creator die.

Some threw down their weapons and knelt to beg for mercy.

Some fled frantically, trying to escape this void.

Some broke down completely, clutching their heads and weeping.

But it was useless.

Because their world was being devoured.

Grayish-white Yin Qi flooded into the Blazing Sun World, tearing apart those golden rays, swallowing those scorching flames, and converting the remaining flame units.

And those souls that died in battle, whether from the Netherworld or the Blazing Sun World, were all absorbed by the Ghost Gate Pass.

On the doors of the Ghost Gate Pass, those runes flashed frantically.

Countless points of light gushed from the gates, drifting to every corner of the Netherworld World.

Those points of light landed on the ground and began to condense.

Ghost Soldiers.

A Rank 2 unit type condensed from souls.

In this battle, the total units killed on both sides exceeded two hundred thousand.

The Ghost Gate Pass absorbed the energy of these two hundred thousand souls and condensed three thousand Ghost Soldiers.

Three thousand Ghost Soldiers stood neatly in front of the Ghost Gate Pass.

They wore tattered armor and held rusty spears, their faces too blurred to see any features.

But they obeyed orders absolutely.

They could patrol, stand guard, and maintain order.

Furthermore, they didn't require Su Bai to spend any Power Of Faith.

[Devouring complete]

[Power Of Faith obtained: 5200 points]

[World diameter expansion: 2100 km → 2450 km]

Su Bai stood in the center of the void, looking at the Blazing Sun World that was being completely devoured, his expression calm.

The communicator vibrated.

It was Chu Kuangren.

[Chu Kuangren: ...]

[Chu Kuangren: Holy crap.]

[Chu Kuangren: You really killed him???]

[Chu Kuangren: Zhao Wuji??? The 37th ranked Zhao Wuji???]

[Chu Kuangren: You fucking really killed him???]

The corners of Su Bai's mouth curled up slightly.

He raised his hand and sent a simple two-word reply:

[Su Bai: Pay up.]

Chu Kuangren's messages stopped for five seconds.

A string of exclamation marks flooded the screen.

[Chu Kuangren: Paying, paying, paying!!! Right now!!! Twenty million will be in your card immediately!!!]

[Chu Kuangren: My dad just roared again in the living room; this time he cracked the walls of our house!!!]

[Chu Kuangren: Brother!!! You're my real brother!!! From now on, you're my real brother!!!]

[Chu Kuangren: The Zhou Family is probably going to go crazy!!! Zhao Wuji was someone they spent a fortune to nurture!!! And you just killed him like that!!!]

[Chu Kuangren: But don't worry!!! The Chu Family has your back!!! If the Zhou Family dares to touch you, my dad will be the first to fight them to the death!!!]

Su Bai looked at the messages and chuckled softly.

He closed the communicator, his gaze falling on the newly formed land.

The Blazing Sun World had been completely devoured.

That golden light, those scorching flames, and those flame units had all vanished.

In their place was a grayish-white scorched earth.

On that scorched earth, the aura of the Blazing Sun still lingered.

But soon, that aura would be completely assimilated by the Yin Qi.

Su Bai withdrew his gaze and looked at his heroes.

The Ten Great Yin Marshals and the five great races were all intact.

Although there were some casualties, under the conversion of the Ghost Gate Pass, those lost units would soon be replaced by Ghost Soldiers.

He deep breathed and looked up.

His gaze pierced through the void, landing on those flickering points of light.

Three days later.

The Top Scholar Competition.

Top ten, fifty million.

First place, one hundred million.

And the Zhou Family.

The family that dared to send someone to kill him.

The corners of Su Bai's mouth curled up slightly.

Just you wait.

This grudge is now set.
