The casualties in Yellow Rock City were extremely heavy, especially the Black Troopers. Under Zhou Yu's special care, most of the cherry blossom petals had entered their bodies. At the final moment, when Zhou Yu plucked the strings of the zither and triggered the Red Cherry Fire, those with higher cultivations were able to hold on for a while, but those with lower cultivations were instantly incinerated into nothingness.
"Spiritual Master … We … Ahhh …" Luo Xiu's entire body was bathed in blood. The Red Cherry Hellfire continued to emerge from under his skin, burning his body. If it wasn't for the fact that his Aurous Core Stage cultivation was strong enough, he would have already died in the terrifying flames.
"Hmph! Suppress him! " Sage Huang Yan's right hand suddenly slapped towards Luo Xiu as a strong spiritual energy burst out, intending to forcefully extinguish the fire on Luo Xiu's body. However, what shocked him was that the Red Cherry Fire was so strong that even his spiritual energy was instantly ignited.
Boom! Sage Huang Yan once again increased the output of his spiritual energy. This time, he was finally able to extinguish the damned fire and save Luo Xiu.
"Thank you, Sage Huang Yan!" Luo Xiu immediately expressed his gratitude.
Although with his cultivation, the Red Cherry Fire would not be able to kill him. However, the pain of being burned was not something he wanted to endure, not even for a second more.
After rescuing Luo Xiu, Yellow Rock Sage looked at the continuously expanding rock sphere in the sky. The terrifying suction force was still exploding and many of those who had not been burned to death by the Red Sakura Hellfire had already been sucked into it. Most of the houses in Yellow Rock City had already collapsed and the original city had now become a deep crater.
Without hesitation, Huang Yan Zhenren flew up and flew toward the rock sphere formed by the Chibaku Tensei. With his cultivation, the Chibaku Tensei of this level couldn't do anything to him. However, he couldn't accept watching his city being destroyed by this thing in front of him.
Boom!
Terrifying earth spiritual energy burst out from Sage Huang Yan's body and the dark sky suddenly lit up. In the next moment, a horsetail whisk appeared in Sage Huang Yan's hand. With a shake of his arm, three thousand silver strands expanded and fell towards the Chibaku Tensei like a waterfall from the Nine Heavens.
Reverend Huang Yan was very clear that this thing could not be destroyed for the time being. Otherwise, Yellow Rock City would be the one to be injured. He only wanted to use the horsetail whisk in his hand to pierce it and slowly disintegrate it.
However, the moment his horsetail whisk touched the Chibaku Tensei, the expanding rock sphere suddenly shrank towards the center.
"Not good!" Adept Yellow Rock's complexion changed. He pulled back the horsetail whisk in his hand and was about to retreat. However, the horsetail whisk that he could freely control a moment ago was not pulled back by him. And at this moment, the Chibaku Tensei exploded!
Rumble …
The terrifying explosion engulfed the entire Yellow Rock City. The originally dilapidated walls were completely reduced to rubble, no longer resembling a city.
Yellow Yan with dusty face flew out from the smoke and dust. His complexion was very unsightly, and gnashing his teeth, he roared, "Akatsuki organization, I, Yellow Yan, am absolutely irreconcilable with you … …"
In the forest.
"It finally exploded. It should buy me enough time to leave!" Pain said softly. Then, he looked at the other five who were lying on the ground beside him. From his storage ring, he took out six crystal coffins and the three controlling puppets from Beauty's Grave.
"Take me and the red-haired youth and leave this area as soon as possible. Hide and don't let anyone find us!" After Pain finished speaking, he took their storage rings and handed them over to the puppets. Then, he jumped into the coffin and fell into a deep sleep.
After the three puppets kept the Six Paths' body into their storage rings, Black Robe carried the red-haired youth on his back and quickly left the forest.
In the core area of the Lin Family, in the cave behind the Xiaoling Peak, Hayashikawa was breathing heavily as he lay in the Spiritual Spring Training Room.
"Why do I feel like I was tricked by that red-haired youth again? F * ck, in a moment of impulse, I actually followed him and destroyed the entire Yellow Rock City …" Hayashikawa was speechless.
Initially, he was only planning to plunder some medicinal herbs. But now, the entire Yellow Rock City had been destroyed.
"Forget it, since it has already come to this, let him be. At least my harvest is not bad …" Hayashikawa sat up with difficulty and thought to himself.
Just as Zhou Yu used his zither to cover everyone in the cherry blossom rain, he sent out the Mortal Path, Naraka Path, and Hungry Ghost Path to sweep through the other families' herb collections in Yellow Rock City. Among them, there was even the Lin Family's herb collection.
Even though the different families had different timings to hand in the herbs, Lin Fan's harvest was not that great. However, when added together, it was still a considerable harvest. At least, it was equivalent to the harvest of two Song Families. This was also the reason why Hayashikawa decided to use the Chibaku Tensei. He wanted to mess up the situation in Yellow Rock City as much as possible so that the Mortal Path would have enough time to sweep through.
"After this battle, Pain should rest for a while. As for that red-haired youth, I must find a way to pull him into the Akatsuki's war chariot. His ability is too terrifying …" Hayashikawa said softly. Then, he closed his eyes and began to cultivate. He needed to recover to his peak condition as soon as possible because it was his turn to compete in the Lin Family's tournament.
Three days later, the Akatsuki attacked the Yellow Rock City and destroyed the entire Yellow Rock City in one fell swoop, causing the entire Fire Country to explode. Everyone was shocked at the authenticity of this news because they knew that even though the Yellow Rock City was just a small city, its ruler was Huang Yan Zhenren, who was at the Full Foundation Stage of the Golden Core Stage. They could not understand how the Akatsuki, who was only at the Foundation Establishment Stage, could destroy such a small city.
However, when they personally went to the Hidden Dragon Mountain Range and saw the ruins of Yellow Rock City, they believed that the place was simply a purgatory. The traces of the flames, the traces of the Chibaku Tensei, and the traces of the explosion were all telling the story of how tragic the battle was.
Among them, the Song Family suffered the most. Not only were all their disciples wiped out, even the herbs that they had prepared for a year were swept away by the Akatsuki. Not even a single strand of herb was left. This made the Song Family so angry that they vomited blood.
As for the other families, although the losses were not small, those who died were of a lower cultivation level. Those who were of a higher cultivation level only suffered light injuries. After all, with Zhou Yu's strength, even if the zither music and the Red Sakura Hellfire were very powerful, it was impossible for him to kill too many people with one attack.
Furthermore, Pain's Chibaku Tensei was only used to create chaos and not to kill people. Therefore, although the entire Yellow Rock City was destroyed, the other families did not suffer many casualties.
At the same time, the assassins who tried to assassinate Zhou Yu had also arrived at Yellow Rock City. Unfortunately, they did not manage to find anything except the terrifying traces of the flames.
Just as everyone was discussing the news of Yellow Rock City, the Lin Family's tournament had reached a critical point. In the final battle of the inner disciples, Fa Ye met Wu Xinming from Yanhui Peak. This caused the battle between Hayashikawa's Xiaoling Peak and Lin Shen's Yanhui Peak to be brought forward.
