317: Swift, ruthless, and with astonishing methods!

Accompanied by several violent explosions that rang out almost simultaneously.

The Flesh Carpet and rocks in that area were instantly blown to pieces, flying in all directions!

The blood and shredded meat of the Demonic Evils also shot out like a torrential rain!

Following closely behind were a large number of shrill, distorted screams and wails.

"Aaaah——!!!"

"How is this possible! They actually discovered us?!"

"What terrifying humans, just what kind of power is this?"

The shadows writhed as a large number of Demonic Evils, who had been perfectly hidden in the rock wall shadows and resentment, were forced to reveal themselves.

They were of various forms; some clung to the rock walls like geckos, while others were completely merged with the shadows.

At this moment, they were all sent flying by the explosion, their carapaces shattered, limbs mangled, and foul blood splattered everywhere!

These were the hidden sentries and ambushing troops arranged by the Lord of Curses on the periphery.

Their strength was generally between the fifth and sixth ranks, and they excelled in concealment and assassination.

They had originally planned to launch a surprise attack when the human team ventured deeper, or at the very least, transmit intelligence.

However, they didn't even have time to move a muscle.

They were sent reeling by the Nether Shock that Chen Nian had casually unleashed!

"Flee! Flee quickly!"

"The perception of these humans is too terrifying!"

"We can't possibly be their match, run away!"

The surviving Demonic Evils were scared out of their wits; they had completely lost their Battle Intent and only wanted to distance themselves from this terrifying god of slaughter.

However——

Before the others could even recover from that lightning-fast counterattack.

Chen Nian had already raised his hand again.

"Did I say you could run?"

His voice was flat, yet it carried an unquestionable majesty.

He didn't even bother to aim specifically.

He simply waved his hand toward the general area where those Demonic Evils were fleeing.

"Swish swish swish swish swish——!!!"

Beams of Nether Shock, even more numerous and dense than before.

Like a green rain appearing out of thin air, they instantly blanketed that area!

"No——!!!"

"Lord, save me..."

"Rumble——!!!!!!"

A continuous string of explosions completely transformed that area into a purgatory of destruction!

Eerie green annihilation energy raged wildly.

It tore apart, crushed, and vaporized the bodies, armor, and evil arts of the Demonic Evils, along with the rock walls they were hiding in!

Even those who weren't directly hit and were only caught by the aftershocks of the explosions.

The powerful bodies of the Demonic Evils were easily shredded like rags, their bones snapped, and their internal organs thrown about!

For a time, shredded meat fell like rain and foul blood flowed like a river.

Severed limbs and broken carapaces, mixed with blasted rock, covered that writhing ground.

The smell of blood and burning, thick enough to be suffocating, instantly overpowered the original stench of the valley.

[Ding! Killed a Sixth-Tier Demonic Evil, gained 24,891 points!]

...The System's notification sounds cheerfully flooded Chen Nian's mind, and his points saw another considerable increase.

Chen Nian withdrew his hand with satisfaction, as if he had merely swatted a few bothersome flies.

"Hmm, not bad, not bad. Quite a bountiful harvest."

Chen Nian nodded contentedly, as if he had just completed an efficient cleaning job.

However, the group of experts behind him had once again fallen into a state of collective petrification!

From Fairy Ling Shuang's warning to Chen Nian's strike, to the complete annihilation of all the ambushing Demonic Evils... the entire process probably didn't exceed ten seconds!

Most of them hadn't even fully figured out the specific locations and numbers of the ambushers!

The battle was already over!

And it was a thorough, clean, and crushing end!

Chen Nian's strikes were swift, ruthless, and precise, without any hesitation.

Every casually unleashed Nether Shock contained destructive energy that made their hearts tremble.

Moreover, his control was exquisite to the point of perfection; there was almost no wasted energy, with everything poured onto the targets.

This strength, this level of control, was truly terrifying beyond their comprehension!

"This... they're all killed just like that?" A Spiritual Energy Bureau Agent stared blankly at the smoking battlefield and swallowed hard.

"How did Senior Chen discover their specific locations? My Divine Sense was almost completely interfered with by the Evil Energy here, and I could only perceive extremely vague fluctuations..."

A brilliant light flickered in Fairy Ling Shuang's beautiful eyes; there was shock, and even deeper curiosity and inquiry.

"Striking like lightning, destroying the enemy in an instant... our generation is far behind such a Realm."

Sword Without Trace took a deep breath, the admiration in his eyes almost becoming tangible.

"Haha! Refreshing! Senior Chen is mighty! These rats hiding their heads and showing their tails should be crushed like this!" Bear Fierce, on the other hand, was boiling with excitement and pumped his fist hard.

However, Chen Nian didn't care at all about the crowd's shock and praise.

He just casually flicked his hand, as if brushing away a speck of dust.

His gaze swept over the places where the Demonic Evils had perished, and the corners of his mouth curled into an undisguised look of contempt and mockery:

"With just this little bit of concealment skill, you dare to come out and make fools of yourselves?"

"Is your Abyss out of people? Sending only this kind of trash to their deaths?"

As soon as these words were spoken, combined with the hellish scene on-site.

And Chen Nian's relaxed and easygoing attitude, as if he had just stepped on a few ants.

Instantly, the entire scene was once again enveloped in an indescribable sense of awe and worship!

What kind of dominance and strength was this!

In front of Special Commissioner Chen, those ambushing Demonic Evils that had made them stay on high alert and feel troubled.

Were simply like clay chickens and pottery dogs, unable to withstand a single blow!

Their nerves, which had been tense due to the environmental pressure, actually relaxed quite a bit for some reason.

With Senior Chen here, it seemed that no matter how great the danger, it was only so-so?

However, before they could fully recover from this brief shock and inexplicable sense of security——

Chen Nian suddenly turned his head, his gaze like lightning as he looked toward a seemingly ordinary area.

He just gave a contemptuous smile and said faintly:

"So, do you still want to hide?"

"You've watched the show for so long, it's time to pay for the ticket."

"Since you like hiding so much, then stay hidden forever—just die in the shadows."

Hearing this, the entire audience was instantly shocked!

There was another ambush?!

They actually hadn't sensed it at all!

However, Chen Nian didn't give them any time for surprise or reaction.

Before his voice had even faded, he had already raised his hand again, pointing his fingers like a sword and casually slashing downward toward that area!

"Boom——!!!"

An extremely thick and condensed bolt of Purple Heavenly Thunder, radiating majestic heavenly might.

Tore through the thick, dark-red sky of the valley without any warning.

Like a Nine Heavens Divine Punishment, it crashed down ruthlessly toward that area!
