Warrior’s Promise

The aura around Li Hentian was incredibly dense as forces surged towards the sky. In addition to the sacred powers of the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda in his hand, Li Hentian appeared godly.

Su Mo’s aura was also not weak. Instead, it was dark and mysterious. With the Golden Holy Sword in his hand, Su Mo looked like a sharp heavenly sword that was shining brightly.

Shoosh!

Su Mo attacked first as he struck down with his sword towards Li Hentian.

The first mover had an advantage and Su Mo would not wait blindly for Li Hentian to use the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda to crush him.

Sword Qi shot out and tore through the Empty Space as it headed directly for Li Hentian.

This sword strike showed Su Mo’s expertise in swordplay. Sword Qi was like a three-colored crystal ball that dazzled with light. Its powers were terrifying and Sword Force filled the entire space.

Lyu Gang and the other spectators were standing a thousand feet away from Su Mo, but they still felt as though their skin was being split apart by the Sword Force. All of them instantly activated their Dark Force to form a protective array around their bodies.

Su Mo and Li Hentian were close to each other as they stood only three thousand feet apart. The massive Sword Qi instantly fell upon Li Hentian.

However, Li Hentian was a strong foe and his reaction speed was incredibly fast. As he took a few steps backward, he released the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda in front of him.

The Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda flew out horizontally before Li Hentian to meet the Sword Qi. The pagoda expanded slightly and became the size of a plate as bright light shot out of it.

The seven-colored radiance from the pagoda was very terrifying. Destroying everything in its path, the moment the Sword Qi touched the radiance, it instantly exploded out like popcorn and weakened greatly.

However, the Sword Qi was still relatively strong and although its speed was reduced slightly, it heavily collided against the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda in the next breath.

Bam!

A loud explosion sounded as the Sword Qi and the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda struck against each other, causing the entire Demon Head Mountain to shake.

The Sword Qi immediately crumbled into tiny streaks of sword rain that fell in all directions. Many onlookers exerted all their strength to defend themselves against the residual sword forces.

The Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda was also struck heavily and thrown backward from the impact.

Li Hentian extended his hand outward and the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda swirled in a circle before it flew in an arc back to his palm.

Bang bang bang!

The sword rain that exploded hit the Ancient Demon’s Brain and banging sounds sounded. A large number of insects were killed instantly.

Numerous agitated insects flew from the Ancient Demon’s Brain and swept out towards the crowd.

However, these were all black and silver insects. The dozen purple-gold insects seemed to have been glued to the Ancient Demon’s Brain and did not move at all.

Su Mo completely ignored these insects. The Natal Spiritual Sword Array appeared and surrounded his body. Without hesitation, Su Mo attacked again.

Sword Radiance shot out from his body and danced through the sky. As Su Mo struck down unstoppably with the sword, streaks and streaks of Sword Qi swept out towards Li Hentian.

Shoosh shoosh shoosh!!!

The sounds of the Sword Qi slicing through the air was ear-piercing. The Sword Qi were like streaks of colourful blades that surrounded Li Hentian and trapped him in a cage of Sword Qi.

“Pathetic!” Li Hentian did not appear afraid at all. As he coldly laughed, he activated the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda again.

The crystal-like Glazed Pagoda expanded again and shielded Li Hentian behind it before it started to spin madly around Li Hentian.

In an instant, strong winds blew ferociously and the area around the pagoda turned into a seven-colored vortex that swept out the Sword Qi.

All the Sword Qi attacks that collided against the seven-colored vortex crumbled apart and burst out into miniature streaks that spread in all four directions. This made the air shake violently.

The forces from the vibration of the seven-colored vortex killed numerous insects that were flying towards Li Hentian, so none neared him.

Ah! Ah! Ah!

Right at that moment, a few painful streaks filled the air. Weaker martial artists were killed by the simultaneous attacks of the insects and the Sword Qi back waves.

The entire wide space was in a state of chaos. Numerous insects flew through the air and attacked everyone they saw. The crowd tried valiantly to shield themselves as a variety of attacks flashed out and explosive sounds echoed through the space.

Having been hit by the second wave of attacks, the Ancient Demon’s Brain started to shake violently and many insects started to fly off.

At that point, the statue-like purple-gold insects started to move.

Five purple-gold insects left their spots and fluttered their wings as they shot through the air at the speed of light.

Shoosh shoosh shoosh shoosh!

In an instant, ear piercing sounds pierced the air. The five purple-gold insects were like a streak of lighting that tore through the sky as they attacked the crowd.

Su Mo and Li Hentian were the two people closest to the brain and hence they were also engulfed by the attacks of the insects.

Two purple-gold insects flew towards them. One of them headed to Su Mo while the other flew towards Li Hentian. The other three purple-gold insects shot towards the crowd of onlookers.

“What?”

Su Mo’s heart turned cold as a dangerous sense rushed into his mind. Su Mo was also taking note of the purple-gold insects previously. After all, the fight would definitely disturb them.

Now that he found a purple-gold insect rushing toward him. Su Mo did not have time to dodge and he immediately raised the sword in his hand to block.

In the next moment, the purple-gold insect hit the Golden Holy Sword heavily.

Clang!

Like two swords that struck each other, a metallic sound erupted.

Although the purple-gold insect was strong, it could not pierce through a Lower Sacred Weapon and it was immediately thrown backward by the impact.

Su Mo’s body also shook violently as he was forced backward a few steps.

“What strength!” Su Mo was shocked. Although the insect was tiny, its strength was exceptional.

Just as Su Mo blocked the purple gold insect, the other purple-gold insect attacked Li Hentian.

Although Li Hentian did not know the actual strength of the purple-gold insect, he had killed quite a number of black and silver colored insects along the way to the wide space. Hence, he knew that the purple-gold insects were not weak.

The purple-gold insect heading toward Li Hentian shot through the sky and rushed towards him like a purple-colored ray of holy light.

Li Hentian did not have time to retrieve the Seven-colored Glazed Pagoda and he instantly retreated backward. At the same time, Sabre Radiance flashed in his arm and he heavily struck down on the purple-gold insect.

Clang!

The same metallic sound sounded and the purple-gold insect was thrown backward from the impact.

At that point, Su Mo and Li Hentian had successfully blocked the attack from the purple-gold insects. However, no one could block the three purple-gold insects that headed towards the crowd of onlookers.

Ah! Ah! Ah!

Three painful shrieks sounded as three people’s brains were torn apart. The Dark Force protective array around them appeared to be completely useless.

As soon as the insects pierced through the three people’s brains, they devoured the brains and Fighting Souls of their targets instantly before they flew out again.

Ah! Ah! Ah!

Screams filled the air and the three purple-gold insects shot through the crowd. Virtually no one could block it.

The Dark Force protective array was as weak as tofu in front of the purple-gold insects. One by one, disciples dropped down to the ground lifelessly.

Aside from Tian Lang, Yi Wei and a few other Rank 4 Martial Emperors who could barely defend themselves against the insect attack, the rest of the crowd were like live targets.

“Let’s run!”

“Quickly, get out of here!”

“Get the medulla!”

“Attack!”

Yells filled the air as a large number of people turned and fled. Yet, there were also many others who did not run. Instead, they rushed towards the Ancient Demon’s Brain and stretched their hands forward to grab the medulla.
