251: Chapter 251 Breaking Out of the Cauldron! A Fat Worm Crushed with a Single Slap!
Accompanied by a hair-raising chewing sound, countless cracks appeared on the surface of the Giant Bronze Cauldron.
With a thunderous boom, the Cauldron body, weighing thousands of catties, completely exploded. Bronze fragments shot out in all directions like cannonballs.
A terrifying, malevolent creature the size of a heavy-duty truck slowly crawled out from the shattered base.
It had the body of a hundred-legged centipede, but its head resembled a blood-colored toad covered in sarcomas.
Two pairs of translucent black fleshy wings even unfurled from its back.
A fierce, baleful aura soared into the sky. The moment the surrounding trees came into contact with the poisonous gas it exhaled, they instantly withered and turned into black ash.
The leading Black-Robed Elder raised the bone knife in his hand and laughed wildly toward the sky.
“The King of Ten Thousand Gu! It has finally been born! With such a sacred object, the entire Cultivation World will have to surrender at the feet of my Miaojiang!”
He was just about to order his subordinates to continue killing and bloodletting when he caught a glimpse of four figures out of the corner of his eye at the edge of the clearing, appearing at some unknown time.
“Who is there?!”
The elder whipped his head around and barked sharply.
Su Yang walked toward the White Bone Altar with his hands in his pockets, as if taking a leisurely stroll. The three peerless beauties, Chu Ling, Su Qingcheng, and Jiang Yingxue, followed closely behind him.
“Using Old Li's subordinates as fodder—you people have some nerve.”
Su Yang's tone was flat, as if he were stating a trivial matter.
When the Black-Robed Elder saw Su Yang and the others clearly, he was first stunned, but then a greedy green light erupted in his eyes.
“I thought it was just a group of Mortals who had wandered in here by mistake, but to think it's actually four tender-skinned Cultivators! Especially these three girls—they are simply rare, top-grade Cauldrons!”
The elder's bone knife suddenly pointed at Su Yang, his face turning hideous.
“My children, the King of Ten Thousand Gu has just awakened and needs the nourishment of pure Cultivator flesh. Tear the man to pieces to feed the Gu, and capture the women alive!”
The giant Blood Gu let out a deafening roar.
Its hundred legs moved in unison as its massive body turned into a crimson afterimage. It opened its bloody maw, which was spewing green venom, and lunged straight for Su Yang's face.
Su Qingcheng took a step forward, her red clothes fluttering, and the long sword in her hand let out a crisp ring.
“Master, let Qingcheng slay this ugly monster.”
Su Yang reached out to stop the Red-Clothed Ghost General and shook his head gently.
“It's full of poisonous blood; don't get your clothes dirty. To deal with this kind of bug, just stomping it to death is enough.”
Before his voice had even faded, Su Yang lightly tapped his right foot on the ground.
Buzz!
A layer of blinding golden light rippled out from under his feet.
Pure Yang True Qi soared into the sky like a physical substance, instantly condensing in mid-air into a golden giant hand a hundred zhang in size.
The giant hand carried the scorching heat of something that could incinerate all things. Like Mount Tai pressing down, it grabbed the mid-air lunging giant Blood Gu firmly in its palm.
“Squeak, squeak, squeak!”
The Blood Gu let out a shrill, piercing scream.
Its proud, hard carapace instantly turned red under the burning of the Pure Yang True Fire, emitting bursts of foul-smelling black smoke.
The wild laughter on the Black-Robed Elder's face instantly froze, and his eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets.
“This is impossible! The King of Ten Thousand Gu is a great demon close to the Nascent Soul Stage; how could it be captured by someone with one hand?!”
A mocking, cold sneer curled at the corner of Su Yang's mouth.
“A fat bug that has only just touched the threshold of the Nascent Soul dares to call itself a king? this young master will teach you today what true power is.”
His five fingers suddenly tightened.
Bang!!!
Like popping a fragile balloon, the massive King of Ten Thousand Gu exploded directly into a cloud of blood mist in mid-air.
Before the foul-smelling green poisonous blood could even hit the ground, it was evaporated cleanly by the golden Yang Fire, leaving not even a trace of ash behind.
Dead silence.
The entire clearing fell into a deathly stillness.
The legs of the three Miaojiang elders went weak, and with a 'thud,' they all knelt on the ground together, their bodies shaking like sieves. The bone knives in their hands fell to the ground with a crisp clatter.
An instant kill!
The sacred object that had consumed hundreds of years of Miaojiang's heritage and required the blood sacrifice of countless living beings was actually wiped out as easily as crushing an ant by this young man before them!
Su Yang didn't even spare a glance at these three old wastes.
He flicked his fingers repeatedly, and several strands of gentle Pure Yang True Qi turned into golden light, accurately entering the bodies of the dozen or so Special Forces Team Members lying on the ground.
As the pure Yang Qi entered their bodies, the black toxins on the Special Forces Team Members' faces receded rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In less than half a minute, the dozen or so people coughed violently, spat out large mouthfuls of black poisonous blood, and slowly woke up.
“We... aren't dead?” A squad leader clutched his chest and sat up with a look of dazed confusion.
When he saw Su Yang standing in front of him, his eyes instantly overflowed with wild joy and awe, and he hurriedly rolled over to kneel on the ground.
“Consultant Su! Thank you, Consultant Su, for saving our lives!”
The other members also reacted one after another, kneeling in a row, moved to tears.
“All of you, get up. Old Li brought you out; I have to leave him a few survivors to take back to report.” Su Yang waved his hand.
He turned and stepped toward the three Black-Robed Elders kneeling on the ground. Looking down at them, his gaze was as cold as a blade.
“Now, it's time to settle the score for using my people as blood food.”
The Black-Robed Elders were scared to the point of their Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering. They kowtowed frantically, their foreheads hitting the muddy ground until blood flowed.
“Senior, have mercy! We were blind and offended Senior! Beneath the White Bone Altar, there is still a world-shaking treasure left by our Miaojiang ancestors! As long as Senior is willing to grant us a way to live, I am willing to offer the incantation to open the secret treasure with both hands!”
Su Yang raised an eyebrow. His gaze moved past the elder and landed on the massive base of the White Bone Altar.
With a slight movement of his Divine Sense, he indeed detected an ancient and obscure energy fluctuation faintly coming from deep underground.
