Li Yi smiled. "This giant scorpion's aura is extraordinary. It must be a primordial species. That poison was able to directly kill Emperor Jiuxing. Ling Baiyi must've done something to it as well. There aren't many in the world that can subdue it. "
The giant scorpion lay dormant on the ground, waving its pincers in all directions. Wave after wave of violent aura spread out.
Its crimson eyes suddenly narrowed, and its huge body tightened. It shot up at an extremely fast speed toward the bronze platform.
"Not good, it's trying to save Dongmen Yuan!" Someone cried out.
Wan Qianyi's expression was cold as he stared at the giant scorpion.
"Kacha kacha!"
The giant scorpion raised its pincers and slashed down like a giant blade.
Astral winds burst forth, forming several tornadoes in the air that slashed down like blades.
"Bang bang bang!"
The bronze platform was filled with violent sounds as several of the tornadoes shot toward Dongmen Yuan and cut into his body.
"Ah!!"
Dongmen Yuan screamed in pain as his body was instantly sliced into several pieces. His head flew off as well. His eyes were filled with unwillingness and resentment as he fell far away.
This result left everyone stunned.
"Hmph! Ling Baiyi is cruel by nature, even killing his own people. If we don't eliminate this demon today, how can there be justice in the world?! "
Wan Qianyi snorted angrily. "Grand Elder, get into formation!"
Chen Zhongxi's pupils shrank as he replied coldly, "Yes! We don't need to reveal the entire formation. Just the tip of the iceberg will be enough to easily kill this scorpion! "
He flew out of the building and stopped above the giant scorpion. He brought his palms together and formed a giant palm that slammed down.
Countless runes flickered within the palm, and spiritual energy surged in from all directions, suppressing the giant scorpion.
The demonic aura that filled the sky disappeared without a trace. The giant scorpion's body trembled as it resisted the power of the palm.
At the same time, six powerhouses appeared around the giant scorpion and formed a hexagonal formation. A huge amount of energy pressed down on the scorpion like an iron bucket, and the giant scorpion's trembling became more and more violent.
"Tss tss!"
The scarlet tail began to sweep violently, and countless rays of red light intertwined like silk threads, incomparably gorgeous.
Chen Zhongxi shouted, "This thing's poison is too strong, we can't release it. First crush it into pieces, then shake open the void and release it!"
His figure flashed, and he stepped onto the huge bronze platform. His right foot stomped.
Clang!
The bronze platform began to shrink, until it was only as tall as a person. It hovered in front of Chen Zhongxi. Chen Zhongxi's eyes widened.
Bang!
With a slap of his hands, the bronze platform doubled in size and fell to the ground.
"Boom!"
Trapped in the hexagonal formation, the giant scorpion trembled even more violently. Its two eyes were as enchanting as crimson stones, but its pair of pincers and thin tail were trembling violently. Fine cracks were constantly splitting open on its body, issuing crackling sounds.
The six martial artists' faces were all pale. It was extremely difficult for them to hold on. Cold sweat the size of beans dripped down, and his body began to tremble.
On the building, Qian Sheng said, "Those six people can't hold on much longer. If we really crush the giant scorpion, I'm afraid the impact they will receive will not be small. I wonder if it will affect the entire formation's power?"
Wan Qianqian crossed his arms and said, "The Great Elder will know what to do."
Li Yi smiled and said, "This giant scorpion is indeed powerful, to actually be able to withstand the pincer attack of seven people. Tsk tsk."
Wan Qianqian's face darkened, and he said coldly, "City Lord means that our Myriad Treasures Tower has no one, and we need seven people to deal with a demonic beast?"
"I wouldn't dare, it's just that what I see makes me sigh with emotion," Li Yi said with a smile, but the corner of his mouth revealed undisguised ridicule.
"Humph! Who do you think you are, to dare to talk about the Myriad Treasures Tower's strength! " Liu Feng shouted angrily, "When Great Elder Chen Zhongxi advanced to Emperor Jiuxing, who knows where you were playing in the mud!"
Li Yi turned his head slightly, squinting at him, and said disdainfully, "Who do you think you are?"
Liu Feng sneered and said, "I'm not much, but I'm an upright person, relying on my own strength for everything. I'm worlds apart from those people who rely on their butts to climb up and become deputy city lords and the like! "
"What did you say!?"
Li Yi was enraged, and his eyes were spitting fire as he shouted, "Who do you say relied on their butts to climb up!? This City Lord will witness your strength today! "
Surging demonic energy spread out on the building, and Li Yi's face became sinister, his body faintly flashing with red light.
Liu Feng was so shocked that he retreated repeatedly. That demonic energy directly seeped into his body, and an extreme fear surged in his heart. He instantly understood that he was definitely not this person's match, and his face became as ugly as a pig's liver.
"Humph!"
Wan Qianqian took a step forward, and all the demonic energy instantly dispersed without a trace.
Li Yi was greatly shocked, and he stared at Wan Qianqian with extreme fear, only feeling that he was unfathomable. He said with a gloomy face, "This City Lord will let trash like you off today, but if I meet you in the future, I'll kill you directly!"
Liu Feng's face turned pale, and he stood there in a daze, gritting his teeth.
Wan Qianqian snorted coldly again, and said, "Humph, Liu Feng is a friend of Myriad Treasure Pagoda. Touching him is the same as touching my Myriad Treasure Pagoda. Those who dare to offend my Myriad Treasure Pagoda, even Ling Baiyi will die, let alone a mere deputy city lord. Right, Lord Deputy City Lord!? "
The word 'deputy' was especially emphasized, and his tone and expression did not conceal his contempt and disdain.
Li Yi was so angry that his teeth itched, but he did not dare to say anything. Fortunately, he was flexible, and after a cold snort, he acted as if nothing had happened.
But all the martial artists looked at Li Yi with completely different gazes. Previously, because of his identity as Scarlet Moon City's deputy city lord, they had seventy percent respect, but now it had become seventy percent fear and thirty percent dread.
Li Yunxiao had been staring at everything from the void, and the demonic energy that Li Yi released just now naturally did not escape his eyes.
"This kid actually had such a great opportunity, and after dragging out an ignoble existence countless times, he achieved such extraordinary strength. I'm afraid he's even above Han Junting and Qin Chuan."
He pondered for a moment and tossed this to the back of his mind, continuing to watch Chen Zhongxi battle the giant scorpion. Even if Li Yi's luck was monstrous, his current strength was nothing in his eyes.
Above the battle formation, Chen Zhongxi roared, "I will use the ancient bronze battle platform to crush it to death. The six of you retreat immediately."
He had also discovered the tyrannical strength of the giant scorpion, and his earlier plan was no longer feasible.
The six of them nodded repeatedly.
"HA!"
Chen Zhongxi's hands formed seals unceasingly, and all sorts of imprints were imprinted on the ancient bronze battle platform, emitting ancient war cries. It was as though a magnificent army had crossed time and space to arrive.
"Ka ka ka ka!"
The shell on the giant scorpion's body broke apart, and the six of them were also sweating profusely, unable to endure any longer.
"Retreat!"
Chen Zhongxi roared, and for the last time, he slammed his palm onto the battle platform.
"Bzz, bzz, bzz!"
The ancient bronze battle platform grew several times larger, and with a ferocious pressure, it finally smashed through all the defenses and slammed onto the giant scorpion, directly smashing it into the ground!
"Boom!"
A deafening boom rang out, and the buildings in the distance trembled unceasingly, with several of them directly collapsing.
The six people who set up the formation had already retreated several hundred meters away, and didn't suffer from the aftershocks of the impact. All of them heaved a sigh of relief.
"Is it dead?" Many people mused. Through the thick smoke, their divine sense was blocked by the ancient bronze battle platform, and they had no way to probe the situation clearly.
Li Yunxiao was also extremely shocked. Earlier, the ancient bronze battle platform radiated an extraordinary energy, and from the state it was in, it seemed to be a sealed Xuan Artifact.
"This ancient battle platform is most probably the Great Bliss Rebirth Formation's treasure." He guessed.
The experts present all used their divine sense to probe the ancient bronze battle platform, and saw that the giant scorpion had been smashed into smithereens. There was still some poison lingering around its corpse, but it didn't dissipate. In addition, it wasn't strong at all.
"Good, good!"
Wan Qianqi was the first to clap, and praised, "Grand Elder, you're the first to achieve victory. If Ling Baiyi is so cowardly and doesn't dare to show himself, wouldn't he be the laughingstock of the world? "
As he mocked loudly, he transmitted his voice to the crowd, telling them to be on their guard.
Since the giant scorpion appeared, Ling Baiyi was most probably here. Since he came, he wouldn't leave innocently. There would definitely be a battle to the death.
Wan Qianqi couldn't help but feel his palms drenched in cold sweat.
Chen Zhongxi spoke in a heavy voice, "Lord Tower Lord praises it too much, it was just an easy kill. With such a powerful formation, it's truly regretful that we can't even fight against the Conferred Emperor Wu. "
Everyone started discussing in low voices. Such a tyrannical ninth-ranked demonic beast was killed in an instant, and this was only a portion of the formation's power. If the formation unleashed its full power, Ling Baiyi might not be a match for it.
Everyone started guessing if Ling Baiyi would show himself or not.
Li Yunxiao's eyes suddenly narrowed as he shouted, "Careful! There's something in the corpse of the giant scorpion! "
Chen Zhongxi's body trembled as he hurriedly turned his gaze downwards.
A yellow mist gushed out from the body of the giant scorpion, expanding unceasingly.
"Poison?!"
Shocked, he hurriedly grabbed with his big hand, sealing the sky and locking the earth, completely suppressing the space, so that the poison couldn't spread.
Li Yunxiao's shout immediately exposed his position, causing many powerhouses to look sideways at the void in the sky.
Many people were shocked. They clearly knew that there was someone in that position, but no matter how they swept with their Divine Sense, they couldn't detect any abnormality.
Li Yi's face instantly turned livid, his eyes emitting a sharp chill, his ten fingers cracking as he gritted his teeth, "Li Yunxiao!"
"Not good, it's not poison!"
Chen Zhongxi suddenly shouted, "It's a demonic beast!"
Everyone looked over in surprise. Inside Chen Zhongxi's five-finger prison, the yellow mist began to tremble, wanting to rush out.
At this moment, it began to be accompanied by a low trill, as if it was humming.
Chen Zhongxi shouted, "Seal this thing again, the poison on this thing is far worse than that of the giant scorpion!"
The six people in the distance were shocked, and in an instant, they joined forces to attack again, spreading out a barrier.
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
The yellow light swayed more and more violently, and then faded. Through the light, a pair of black crystal ball-like eyes could be vaguely seen, staring at them with a creepy gaze.
The body of the demonic beast was finally fully revealed, it was actually a several feet long wasp.
