526: Chapter 526 Want to die? That's too easy on you.
"You just said you wanted to massacre the city?"
Li Heng's voice was very light, without any fluctuation, as if he were simply asking about the weather.
But these flat words, falling into the ears of the Tall and Thin Evil Cultivator, were no different from the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder exploding in the depths of his Divine Soul!
The Tall and Thin Evil Cultivator's blood seemed to freeze in that instant.
He stiffly turned his head, looking down at the large crater smashed out by his second brother's body.
In the pit, that Golden Core Peak Cultivator who had rampaged alongside him for many years had every inch of his bones shattered; black blood mixed with visceral fragments flowed from his seven orifices, his death miserable to the extreme.
And the cause of all this was merely... a single peanut?
A chill originating from the deepest part of his Soul surged frantically from his tailbone to the top of his head.
Run!
This was the only thought in his mind!
The white-robed Young Master before him was definitely not a Mortal! He was an ancient Vicious Beast wearing human skin! He was a terrifying existence that he didn't even have the qualification to look up to!
"Blood God Escape!"
The Tall and Thin Evil Cultivator let out a shrill shriek and spat out a large mouthful of lifeblood without hesitation.
The lifeblood ignited instantly in the air, transforming into a sinister blood mist that enveloped him.
His body turned into a blinding streak of bloody light, tearing through the air at a terrifying supersonic speed, shooting frantically toward the horizon!
This was his trump card life-saving forbidden technique; every use cost a hundred years of Lifespan, but at this moment, he couldn't care less!
He only wanted to escape! The further the better!
On the roof of the City Lord's Mansion, Zhou Yuan, who had already prepared to self-detonate his Golden Core, was stunned by this scene.
The elder of the Golden Core Peak Black Wind Twin Fiends was actually scared into burning his lifeblood to flee by a single sentence from that young man?
This... what on earth was going on?
However, an even more inconceivable scene occurred.
After that streak of bloody light flew less than a thousand meters, the space ahead suddenly distorted.
As if the blood light had hit an invisible wall, it traced a bizarre arc in mid-air and, in an instant, reappeared above the City Lord's Mansion, returning to the starting point of his escape.
The Tall and Thin Evil Cultivator stumbled as his figure emerged, his face filled with extreme horror and confusion.
What happened?
He had clearly been fleeing in the opposite direction!
Refusing to believe it, he activated the secret technique again, turning into blood light to flee in another direction.
The result was exactly the same as before.
No matter how he flew, how fast he went, or which direction he took, he would ultimately return to the original spot in the next second, like a ghost.
This piece of heaven and earth seemed to have become an invisible cage, and he was the mouse being toyed with by a cat.
"No... impossible! What kind of sorcery is this!"
The Tall and Thin Evil Cultivator panicked completely, frantically trying a dozen more times, each with the same result.
Zhou Yuan, on the roof, was already dumbfounded, even forgetting the injuries on his own body.
He stared fixedly at the white-robed young man who had stood in the same spot from beginning to end without moving even a finger.
This was no longer a Divine Ability.
This was 'Words Follow the Law'! This was Rules!
This was the Domain that only those legendary Nascent Soul Stage monsters, or even Soul Transformation Stage experts, could touch!
Just who was this young man? Could he be a Saint from some hidden Holy Land out for worldly experience?
In his continuous failures, the Tall and Thin Evil Cultivator finally exhausted his last bit of lifeblood, falling from mid-air and slamming heavily onto the ground.
His aura was withered to the extreme, his face as pale as golden paper.
But more terrifying than physical weakness was the complete collapse of his spirit.
He was in despair.
*Thump!*
The Tall and Thin Evil Cultivator no longer had a shred of his previous arrogance or cruelty; he crawled on all fours toward Li Heng like a dog begging for mercy, kowtowing frantically.
"Sen... Senior, spare my life! Senior, spare my life! It was this lowly one who failed to recognize Mt. Tai and offended Senior! I beg Senior to look upon the difficulty of this lowly one's cultivation and spare this lowly one's dog life!"
*Bang! Bang! Bang!*
His forehead collided violently with the bluestone ground, quickly becoming a bloody mess.
Li Heng held the plate of peanuts and walked slowly to him, squatting down.
He pinched a peanut, waved it before the evil Cultivator's eyes, and showed a kind smile.
"You wanted to massacre the city just now?"
He asked softly, as if merely curious.
"At that time, did you consider whether the commoners in the city were willing to let them go?"
The Tall and Thin Evil Cultivator's kowtowing froze abruptly.
He looked up and saw a harmless smile on that young and handsome face.
But in those calm eyes, there was no warmth, only a bottomless indifference.
He knew he was doomed today.
Silence.
A deathly silence.
A few seconds later, the extreme fear and humility on the Tall and Thin Evil Cultivator's face suddenly transformed into a hysterical madness and malice.
Since it was death either way, he would drag this monster down with him!
"Little beast! I'll take you down with me!"
He let out a beast-like roar, and the Golden Core within his body frantically reversed without reservation!
A destructive energy sufficient to level half of Qingshi City erupted from within him!
"Not good! He's going to self-detonate!"
In the distance, Zhou Yuan was pale with fright; ignoring his heavily injured body, he forcibly summoned his last bit of spiritual Qi to open a shield.
However, at the very moment that destructive energy was about to spiral completely out of control.
Li Heng's lips moved slightly.
He spat out a single word.
"Forbidden."
The word fell.
The energy on the Tall and Thin Evil Cultivator, which had been violent to the extreme, instantly froze like a movie frame being paused.
Then, it receded like a tide, vanishing without a trace.
The Tall and Thin Evil Cultivator maintained his ferocious posture from before the explosion, frozen in place, motionless.
He could feel that his Golden Core was still there, but it was covered by an invisible shackle; his connection with the Golden Core had been completely severed!
He couldn't even manage to self-detonate!
Li Heng stood up, looking down at him from above, and gave a cold snort.
"You pieces of trash who have committed so many evils, you want to die so quickly and easily?"
"That's too easy for you."
After speaking, he didn't spare another glance at the evil Cultivator on the ground, instead turning his gaze toward the completely dazed City Lord on the roof.
Li Heng pointed casually.
"This person is for you to handle."
Zhou Yuan jolted and came to his senses, his face filled with bewilderment and being overwhelmed by the favor.
"For me?"
What exactly did this unfathomable Senior want to do?
