116. Joining forces
Looking at the group rushing towards him, Lu Huangtian's eyes were full of mockery: "What, aren't you guys thinking of running away?"
Yang Zhishuang's face turned cold, and she said, "It's not too late to kill Sect Leader Lu before we leave!"
As soon as Yang Zhishuang finished speaking, her whole body suddenly went limp. Her movements were like those of a small, moving snake, elegant yet dangerous.
Yang Zhishuang's lips parted slightly, and invisible auras appeared around Lu Huangtian. They were imperceptible to the naked eye, but Lu Huangtian had a feeling that he was surrounded.
Xiao Yan and his two companions, who had already flown to the side of the Crimson One-Eyed, also couldn't escape Lu Huangtian's gaze. Lu Huangtian then smiled contemptuously: "Yang Zhishuang, do you really think you can stop me?"
For Lu Huangtian, controlling the patterns was even more important than controlling his body; the lightning-shaped patterns immediately covered his arm.
Purple-black lightning swirled around Lu Huangtian, then spread outwards like waves, colliding with the confinement set up by Yang Zhishuang. The purple-black lightning occasionally erupted with blinding light, continuously damaging Yang Zhishuang's setup.
Yang Zhishuang was somewhat alarmed by the speed at which her arrangements were destroyed. Her methods were broken so quickly. She had planned ahead but was caught off guard, yet even so, she probably hadn't even had ten breaths to hold Lu Huangtian back.
But behind her, a dark aura soared into the sky, even surpassing the blood-red giant eye to become the most conspicuous presence on the entire battlefield.
At the center of the aura was a completely black stele, covered with densely packed characters. Anyone with a discerning eye would recognize that these characters recorded the names of renowned and powerful figures in the Northwest Region.
Of course, they all had another identity: they were all powerful figures who were killed by He Kui, the Fiendish Hand.
Looking at the black inscription, Yang Yue, who hadn't participated in the main battle due to the vast difference in strength, sighed, "So many years have passed, and with everyone working for the Golden Alliance Chamber of Commerce, many people have subconsciously forgotten the infamous reputation of the Fiendish Hand!"
Wan Baishan, standing beside Yang Yue, sighed, "It's about that incident, isn't it! Senior He Kui offended a first-rate power at the Ten Thousand Beasts Gathering, the Yanhuang Sect. After the Gathering, the Yanhuang Sect blamed Senior He Kui and secretly murdered his family. After that, he wiped out the entire Yanhuang Sect and their helpers, slaughtering over a hundred Dou Zong in a single month, ultimately earning the title of 'Shagang Hand'!"
"That monument was Senior He Kui's greatest gain at the Ten Thousand Beasts Gathering. It can record the combat consciousness of all the opponents encountered. The moment when the Fiendish Hand used this monument was the most terrifying moment."
Sensing the presence behind her, Yang Zhishuang breathed a sigh of relief. He Kui rushed out from beside the black monument, his eyes filled with darkness.
He charged straight at Lu Huangtian, while his fighting spirit circulated and gathered on all four limbs of He Kui's body.
The moment Lu Huangtian broke through all of Yang Zhishuang's ambushes, a shadow struck, and an inexplicable black shadow enveloped the area where Lu Huangtian was located.
Lu Huangtian snorted, and a bright purple light shone on his right hand, with lightning constantly exploding from his hand.
The shadow was directly disrupted, but the moment the shadow was broken, He Kui's ten fingers arrived. His fingers were a mixture of red and black, and just by looking at them, you could tell that the power of He Kui's fingers was no less than that of a divine weapon!
Lu Huangtian frowned, hardening his skin and tattooing his body. He thrust out with both hands, neither dodging nor avoiding!
He Kui and Lu Huangtian had just exchanged a blow with their hands when he followed up with a sweeping kick from both legs.
As He Kui was taking action, the text on the monument behind him flashed irregularly and kept changing!
Fists, palms, elbows, heads, legs, and knees—every part of He Kui became a deadly weapon. He also accurately predicted Lu Huangtian's movements, and for a time, He Kui actually fought Lu Huangtian, a five-star Dou Zun, to a standstill.
One of the main reasons He Kui was willing to join the Golden Alliance Chamber of Commerce was that his monument could indeed give him the combat awareness of many strong people, but the lack of skills often left him in a predicament where he could not exert his awareness.
The Golden Alliance Chamber of Commerce not only provided him with protection, but also used the most powerful financial resources in the Northwest Region to arm this Dou Zun!
Xiao Yan surveyed the battlefield and realized that He Kui's sudden outburst had indeed given them time to prepare.
Meanwhile, the Buddha's Wrath Lotus, formed by the fusion of the Bone Spirit Cold Flame and the Red Lotus Karmic Flame, was slowly rotating in Xiao Yan's hand.
Before learning the ruler technique given to him by Wan Baishan, Xiao Yan's strongest attack was the Buddha's Fury Lotus. Moreover, judging from the previous breakout, the strange fire still has a certain restraining effect on this kind of evil thing!
On the other side, half of Lion Roar Valley's body was already like it was cast in gold, with a sense of power constantly emanating from his half of his body, and his eyes were closed, obviously still gathering strength.
Jiang Ye held the bow and arrow quietly, his aura completely concealed. Even Xiao Yan, whose soul power was as strong as it was at this moment, felt that Jiang Ye was somewhat elusive during the soul scan, and was almost impossible to perceive.
The one-eyed creature they faced seemed to possess sentience, releasing an emotion that permeated the hearts of the three of them.
"Come on, you trash!"
Xiao Yan didn't know how it did it, but those words kept echoing in his mind.
Even the old master Yao knew little about this thing. Reason told Xiao Yan that such an evil object must be destroyed as soon as possible, and he didn't even have the slightest thought of studying it.
"Xiao Yan!" Lion Roar Valley shouted!
A fierce aura emanated from Lion Roar Valley's body, his internal fighting spirit bursting forth without reservation, and the golden light on his fists was dazzling.
Golden Lion Sky-Splitting Strike!
A terrifying and domineering attack erupted from Lion Roar Valley's fist. Xiao Yan, who was not far from Lion Roar Valley, was also shocked by this attack. The Wrath of Heaven was probably no more than this!
As Lion's Roar Valley's attack erupted, Xiao Yan flicked the Fire Lotus in his hand and rushed behind Lion's Roar Valley at an extremely fast speed.
As Lion's Roar Valley's attack and defense clashed, Xiao Yan had a thought, and the Buddha's Fury Lotus exploded directly.
A sea of fire surged forth, illuminating half the sky in crimson and pale white hues. The temperature of the strange fire began to explode, and the membrane protecting the single eye was burned by the strange fire, producing towering mist.
Xiao Yan saw the immense power of the two's combined attack, and although the protection of the blood-red one-eyed creature began to evaporate and waver, it still showed no signs of being destroyed.
Everything that follows will depend on Jiang Ye, and Jiang Ye had already drawn his bow and nocked an arrow the moment he called for Xiao Yan in Lion's Roar Valley.
Jiang Ye drew a small gray arrow, no more than three feet long, to its full length.
Jiang Ye stared calmly at the giant, blood-red eye in the sky. "How can we tolerate such an evil being existing in this world?"
