As the situation continued, countless people started to lose their vitality and turned into dried corpses, lying on the ground without any signs of life.
Looking at this scene, regardless of Feng Hao or the other experts, everyone fell into silence. This Spiritual Array was too cruel, using the lives of thousands of people as a Blood Sacrifice. Had the Azure Sky Sovereign gone insane?
"Boom!"
At this moment, it was as if even the heavens couldn't stand the actions of the Azure Sky Sovereign. Faint rumbling noises resounded from the jet-black clouds, accompanied by an ear-piercing radiance.
The heavens seemed to be condensing the Heavenly Punishment, intending to use the power of the Heavenly Punishment to erase the Azure Sky Sovereign's cruel actions.
"Haha, a mere Heavenly Punishment wants to kill me? I, the Azure Sky, will go against the heavens. If I can't become an immortal, then I'll become a demon." The Azure Sky Sovereign held onto the Asura Blood Spear as he wildly laughed towards the heavens.
At this moment, the Azure Sky Sovereign's body had already swelled by more than two times. The blood-red runes on his body became even more concentrated as he stomped his foot. Shortly after, countless torrential pillars of blood soared into the heavens, piercing through the heavens.
A sinister energy spread out, filling the entire heavens and earth. In the face of this energy, all the experts present felt as tiny as a grain of sand. This energy was practically contending against the heavens and earth.
Along with the innumerable torrential pillars of blood, the rumbling noises from the black clouds in the heavens and earth became much weaker. In the end, they practically disappeared.
Looking at this scene, Fenghao and the rest exchanged glances with each other, seeing the shock and astonishment in each other's eyes. The Azure Sky Sovereign was actually able to repel the Heavenly Punishment. Clearly, even the Heavenly Dao couldn't stand the sight of it, and wanted to send down a Heavenly Punishment to destroy the Azure Sky Sovereign. However, it was forcefully dispersed by the Azure Sky Sovereign's energy, and was unable to form into a Heavenly Punishment.
It was especially so for Fenghao, whose heart was filled with shock. Even the Heavenly Punishment formed by the Heavenly Dao was dissipated. That meant that the Heavenly Punishment in his body was able to suppress the Azure Sky Sovereign.
At this moment, many people in the Daoist Temple fell to the ground and died in pain. Their life force was completely absorbed by the formation beneath their feet. Even some of the disciples in the Daoist Temple were not spared and could only watch helplessly as they died.
Fenghao and the others couldn't bear to watch this scene. How cruel was this scene? However, they couldn't do anything to stop it. Fenghao wanted to forcefully stop it, but when he was within a hundred meters of the Azure Sky Sovereign, he couldn't move an inch. There was a mysterious power that was preventing him from doing anything.
"Ah!"
Feng Hao's eyes turned red and he couldn't help letting out a long roar to vent the anger in his heart. This was the first time that he saw hundreds and thousands of people dying in front of him. Furthermore, it was done in such a cruel manner, which made him feel grief and indignation in his heart.
Those people could be said to be completely innocent. Just because of a single thought from the Azure Sky Sovereign, they lost their lives in vain. Furthermore, there were even disciples of the Azure Sky Sovereign amongst them.
"Azure Sky Sovereign, you bastard. If I can't kill you with my own hands while I'm still alive, then I'm not worthy to be called a human."
The long roar continued as Feng Hao vented the grief and indignation in his heart. However, the Azure Sky Sovereign's formation was far from over. Not only the Daoist Temple, but even the entire Ten Direction Mountain Range was gradually enveloped by it.
Not only did those people die, but the countless Demonic Beasts in the Ten Direction Mountain Range also lost their lives. At this moment, they were powerless before the formation.
Originally, the formation only covered the Daoist Temple. However, the Azure Sky Sovereign forcefully pushed the entire formation towards the entire Ten Direction Mountain Range, intending to devour all living beings.
At this moment, because the power of many experts appeared on the stone platform, even with the Azure Sky Sovereign's cultivation base, it was difficult to break through the formation.
Including Feng Hao, there were a total of more than fifty experts. There were Divine Masters, Great Emperors, and even more Half-Step Great Emperors like him. However, they were all characters from ancient times.
They looked at those people who died in pain, and their wails before their deaths resounded in their ears. Their faces also became dark and gloomy. Although they were able to become experts, they had already seen through life. Which one of their hands had not been stained with blood?
In the past, their path to becoming an Emperor was forcefully carved out by them. It could be said that the number of people they had killed was far more than the number of people here. However, they were not as cruel as the Azure Sky Sovereign.
"This is the result of your accomplices."
Fenghao coldly swept his gaze over the numerous martial artists who had attacked him earlier. He coldly said, "You bunch of idiots. You actually listened to his side of the story. You wanted to help him deal with me. In the end, thousands of lives have been sacrificed here. Do you feel at ease?!"
Facing Feng Hao's responsibility, the experts that had attacked previously remained silent and lowered their heads. Perhaps, at this moment, they had only started to wonder if the Azure Sky Sovereign's words were true.
Seeing their expressions, Feng Hao's expression eased up a lot. He softly said, "That's right, the Spiritual Bead is indeed with me. He did not lie to you about this. However, it is rumored that the Spiritual Bead contains the secret of longevity. This is something that even I have not seen through. Yet, all of you have mistakenly believed the Azure Sky Sovereign's side of the story."
The bodies of quite a number of experts suddenly trembled when they heard Fenghao's words. Their minds immediately became clear. Indeed, they had been blinded by the greed in their hearts. However, there were still some people who did not believe it.
"You said that you have not comprehended the secret of the Spiritual Bead. Then, on what basis should we believe you?" At this moment, a Divine Master stood out and asked Feng Hao.
"I, Feng Hao, am an upright person. If I say that there is no secret, then there is no secret. You can ask the Radiant Sun Sovereign about this. If I have comprehended it, why would I be afraid of you?" Feng Hao coldly said with disdain.
In any case, these experts were once supreme experts that had dazzled an era. Why was it that the longer they lived, the more afraid they were of death? Even a few words from the Azure Sky Sovereign was enough to make them believe it. This was too disappointing.
"Indeed, this old man can attest to that. Although little friend Fenghao has obtained the Spiritual Pearl, he has yet to decipher the secrets within it, let alone attain longevity. All of you have merely fallen for the Azure Sky Sovereign's trap." At this moment, the Radiant Sun Sovereign slowly stood out and said with a calm expression. He did not feel that he was lying. In fact, there was no need for him to lie, because it was the truth.
