Inside the red barrier.
Outside the core formation, the four Asura Elders were adjusting the outer defenses. As for Pan Xuan, she was looking up. Just like everyone else, she was extremely worried about Elder Jin's current state.
With someone like Wen Tianhou grabbing his heart, even the Asura Elders wouldn't be able to escape.
"Unfortunately, your bodies are filled with too many impurities and negative emotions. Otherwise, I really would want to have a taste of you." Wen Tianhou intentionally threatened Elder Jin. At the same time, his hand tightened, causing Elder Jin's expression to become even more pained.
"In your dreams!"
Elder Jin's face was the color of pig's liver. Even though he was in such pain, he still spat at Wen Tianhou.
"You sure are stubborn. Let's see how long you can last."
Wen Tianhou didn't care at all. He continued to increase the strength in his hand, wanting to torture him to death to vent his anger.
Right now, everything about Elder Jin was under his control. If it weren't for his permission, Elder Jin wouldn't even have the ability to speak.
"Ha!"
Elder Jin suddenly laughed. The black mist around his body suddenly sped up, and his body became somewhat illusory. At the same time, his right hand that was being controlled was also carefully released.
Wen Tianhou immediately noticed that something was wrong. He immediately tightened his grip, and several cold rays of light flashed through the air.
BANG!
A huge hole appeared in Elder Jin's chest, leaving only a sliver of flesh connected to his lower body. In the next moment, a beam of light shone on him, and his entire body was blasted into a bloody mist by the force. Only the Avīci Sword remained undamaged, and it fell to the ground.
"Elder Jin!"
Pan Xuan's heart suddenly tightened. She couldn't help calling out in fear.
It wasn't just her. Everyone below also couldn't help crying out in alarm when they saw Elder Jin turn into a bloody mist.
But just as the bloody mist was about to erupt, a black figure emerged from the bloody mist and grabbed the falling Avīci Sword. With lightning speed, it slashed down.
"AHH!"
A miserable cry came from Wen Tianhou's mouth. His left arm had already been completely cut off from his body. It quickly withered into a black mist that dissipated into the air.
This was not only the loss of an arm, but it also meant that the cultivation in his body had been sucked dry by the Avīci Sword. This caused Wen Tianhou to suffer a great loss, and it was no different from suffering another heavy injury.
At the next moment, Wen Tianhou used his remaining arm to push forward. The black figure that wanted to approach him again was instantly sent flying. Wen Tianhou's plan to take advantage of the situation to launch a sneak attack was foiled. The figure exploded into pieces in midair, and the Avici in his hand fell to the ground once again.
The bloody mist in the air dissipated. Not far from the ground, before the Infinite Pain Sword landed, Gu Zheng's figure appeared on the ground. He gripped the Infinite Pain Sword in his hand and shouted at the similarly shocked Wen Tianhou.
"Wen Tianhou, are you satisfied with this gift?"
As for Gu Zheng, who was entangled with Little Ying in the distance, he had transformed into Elder Jin. He released Gu Zheng's Cloud Desolate Sword and circled around Little Ying. He arrived near Gu Zheng and smiled at Gu Zheng.
The Cloud Desolate Sword automatically flew back to Gu Zheng's side in the air and stopped beside him. However, it was obvious that it was afraid of the Avici Sword and distanced itself from it.
Above Gu Zheng's head, there was an illusory black figure. It did not have a fixed shape at all and was wriggling back and forth like a ball of water.
"What the hell happened? When did the other party switch people right under my nose?"
At this moment, the people below were incomparably shocked. Previously, they thought that Elder Jin would definitely die, but in the next moment, before Elder Jin died, he actually injured Wen Tianhou. However, he did not die, but instead turned into Gu Zheng, and the other "Gu Zheng" turned into Elder Jin. This made everyone feel confused, and they did not understand what had happened.
The ones who were most surprised were Pan Xuan and Meng Zhen. They knew very well that Gu Zheng had been with them all this time, and after he left, his inherent five rings had increased his strength. Just like this, under the eyes of everyone, not only did he complete the exchange without them knowing, he even hid it from Wen Tianhou. This was simply beyond their understanding.
For a moment, the entire scene suddenly quieted down.
"Good, very good!" Wen Tianhou took a deep breath and stopped Xiao Ying in front of him. He looked at Gu Zheng below hatefully.
"No one has ever dared to play with me like this. However, do you think that I will retreat and leave just like this? I would rather have my cultivation drop greatly than let you die! "
Just as Wen Tianhou's words fell, the black figure above Gu Zheng's head had already surrounded Gu Zheng once again. Then, Wen Tianhou's figure appeared in front of him, and his remaining arm reached inside.
In addition, Elder Jin, who wanted to come over and help, was just about to move when suddenly, he cautiously rose from the sky. The next moment, he found himself in a world full of black fog, causing his heart to sink. He then looked around and knew that he should have been sucked into the painting. As the green light in the sky continued to appear, he began to calmly deal with it. As for the outside, he could only rely on Gu Zheng.
"Swish!"
Before Wen Tianhou could grab Gu Zheng, the entire black mass had already disappeared from the spot and disappeared from this world. Even his two weapons had disappeared, as if they had never appeared.
"Do you think you can escape my detection, a Fiendgod that has joined the enemy's side?" Wen Tianhou looked around and saw Xiao Ying standing in the air, controlling the painting in front of her. She wanted to kill Elder Jin, so he suddenly shouted angrily.
"If you have the ability, then come find me!"
Gu Zheng's voice rang out in the sky. Wen Tianhou's figure instantly appeared in another place, but he still hadn't caught a trace of him.
"Since I can't find you, then I'll find them first."
Wen Tianhou immediately saw the people hiding over there. He spat out a black aura from his mouth, which turned into a black cloud in the air and arrived above the barrier. It covered the sky and covered the sky, causing the world to once again fall into darkness.
BOOM!
Following a thunderous rumble, an incomparably huge lightning vortex slowly appeared above the red barrier. It was currently squirming with lightning. In just a few breaths' time, an even larger black pillar of light surrounded by countless black arcs of lightning descended, enveloping everyone below.
The red barrier rapidly flickered, but it didn't break. It wasn't because the defensive formation was powerful, but because Wen Tianhou had intentionally done so. Now, as long as he increased his power slightly, no one below would be able to escape.
"Do you see? I'll give you a chance. Come and kill me. Otherwise, once half an incense stick's worth of time is up, everyone below will naturally die," carefully shouted Wen Tianhou.
He knew that only the red sword in Elder Jin's hand could injure him. As for that Devil God, although he also couldn't injure him, he could carefully suppress Elder Jin's aura. If the two of them were separated, he wouldn't be afraid of either. But when they were combined, it was a bit of a headache.
The red barrier constantly flickered, and the black pillar of light above it slowly increased in power, causing the people below to be in an extremely dangerous situation. As long as Wen Tianhou willed it, he would be able to completely destroy everyone below.
After Wen Tianhou finished shouting, he floated in the air, a sneer on his face as he looked around. He didn't believe that Elder Jin wouldn't come out. Once he did, he would be completely dead.
Time slowly passed. Soon, half of the time Wen Tianhou had given Elder Jin had passed. The red barrier flickered even more frequently, giving people a feeling that it could be completely destroyed in the time it took to breathe. The people below were constantly on edge.
"What? Do you want to be a coward? As long as you're here, you'll die no matter where you run! "Wen Tianhou once more spoke, wanting to force Gu Zheng to come out.
Just as he finished speaking, Gu Zheng's figure suddenly appeared not far away, holding a white spear and rushing over. Almost at the same time, two ripples appeared on both sides of Wen Tianhou. Another two Gu Zheng, each holding the Cloud Desolate Sword and Avici, instantly launched an attack on Wen Tianhou.
Although Gu Zheng's movements were very fast, it was still very slow for Wen Tianhou. At a glance, all he could see were "Gu Zheng". Even he couldn't tell which one was the real one, or it could be said that none of them were real. However, all of this was very simple for him.
Other than the Avici that posed any threat to him, the other two weapons couldn't hurt him even if he didn't defend himself. Therefore, he immediately teleported in front of Gu Zheng who was holding the Avici. At the same time, a hidden force flew towards the other two to block them.
Regardless of whether they were real or fake, he would kill them all.
Gu Zheng who was holding the Avici seemed to know that Wen Tianhou would appear in front of him. When the weapon in his hand appeared, it glowed red and quickly slashed a semicircle in front of him. If Wen Tianhou appeared in front of him, it would be like walking into a trap. Wen Tianhou also understood this very well. He directly appeared beside him and grabbed his arm at the same time.
Even if he believed that the other party wouldn't use the same trick again, he still had to guard against the other party. He just had to keep his eyes on the Avici Sword. Whether it was Gu Zheng or the Devil God, he didn't need to care about anything else.
"Pa!"
On this side, Gu Zheng hadn't even swung his sword to the side and didn't even notice the other party's appearance. The semicircle in his hand once again turned into a cloud of blood mist and dissipated. The Avici Sword was lost again, but under the inertia, it continued to swing to the side, similar to the previous time.
Wen Tianhou directly grabbed the Avici Sword with his palm. At the same time, a layer of black shield fell on Gu Zheng's body, completely protecting him. He believed that the other party wouldn't be able to break through this defense.
"It's real!"
The moment the Avīci Sword fell into his hand, Wen Tianhou determined that it was indeed the other party's Avīci Sword. He was prepared for it to be fake and was waiting for the other party to appear again. In the end, it was as if he had punched cotton.
"Is this all you've got? You thought I would put my attention on other things and take the opportunity to make a contribution? " Wen Tianhou had a smile on his face. He turned his wrist and swung the Avici Sword at the two people behind him.
His attack on the two people had been ineffective. It didn't matter if he didn't care.
However, just as Wen Tianhou raised his arm, a blood-red flame suddenly rose from the Avici Sword and spread along his palm to his body.
In just half a blink of an eye, when the blood-red flame reached half his arm, it completely separated from his body. His arm that was covered by the flame fell off and was completely burned into nothingness. He was once again seriously injured.
The next moment, Gu Zheng, who was holding the Cloud Desolate Sword, threw out the weapon in his hand and grabbed at the Avici Sword. Gu Zheng, who was holding a spear beside him, emitted a scorching white light. The tip of the spear spewed out white flames as it stabbed towards Wen Tianhou's body.
"Don't even think about it!"
Wen Tianhou roared angrily as an arm appeared in the air and slapped towards Gu Zheng. He didn't even ask the other Gu Zheng who was attacking him. The latter was carelessly slapped into a cloud of black mist and completely dissipated in the air.
However, just as the spear was about to land on Wen Tianhou's body, the burning Avici Sword suddenly turned into a cloud of red light and completely merged with the tip of the spear. Even the white flames in front of it were dyed red as it carefully stabbed towards Wen Tianhou's chest.
Wen Tianhou was greatly alarmed and quickly twisted his body. However, under the guidance of the Avici Sword, it was impossible for him to be as careful as before. The spear pierced through his abdomen.
At the same time, the Cloud Desolate Sword that was thrown over also arrived in front of Wen Tianhou. Gu Zheng, who only had one arm left, held the Cloud Desolate Sword with one hand and carefully chopped at Wen Tianhou's head.
"Clang!"
The Cloud Desolate Sword seemed to have cut through steel. At the same time, a burst of Qi shot out from Wen Tianhou's head. The Gu Zheng on top of it instantly melted into nothingness. The Cloud Desolate Sword flashed with white light and was also sent flying.
"Puchi!"
Following the explosion of a bowl-sized hole in Wen Tianhou's abdomen, he spat out a black light from his mouth. The Gu Zheng in front of him also collapsed into a cloud of white light. In the next moment, Wen Tianhou's body escaped the guidance of the Avici Sword and left this place, appearing in the distance.
As for the Cloud Desolate Sword and the Avici Sword in the air, a burst of Hei Feng blew past and disappeared in the air once again.
At this moment, he really did not expect that the other party had deliberately let him obtain the Avici Sword and had already set a trap on it. In the end, he had stepped into the trap. Not to mention the two other Gu Yue who came right after him. One of them had even insidiously picked up the Avici Sword to attract his attention. Then, he had used this little bit of time and his disdain to once again use his own negligence to heavily injure him.
More importantly, at this very moment, the other party had not even come out. He had only sent a few doppelgangers that could pass off as the real thing, yet he had already completely taken advantage of the other party's plan. At this moment, he even somewhat understood why even Zhu Hun had fallen into the other party's hands.
In such a short amount of time, the other party had been able to set up a trap that even he did not notice. As a result, he had paid a disastrous price and damaged his foundation.
"Xiao Ying!"
Wen Tianhou shouted. Then, Xiao Ying's figure rapidly descended from the sky. There were some traces of battle on her body. He naturally knew that Xiao Ying had completely suppressed the other party in the picture scroll. However, she would not be able to completely defeat the other party without a few days' time. But now, he needed her help.
"Master, please give me your orders!"
Xiao Ying stood to the side, ready to listen to his orders at any time.
"Stand guard here and buy me some time," Wen Tianhou glanced around and said.
He was prepared to indiscriminately destroy everything in the vicinity. No matter where the other party was hiding, they would not be able to avoid this killing move. He just needed to buy some time.
Although the other party's Avici Sword was powerful, if it was not the main body, it would absolutely not be able to harm such a special treasure like Xiao Ying.
"Yes!" Xiao Ying received Wen Tianhou's instructions in her mind. Her entire body exploded into a cloud of black fog, which began to quickly revolve around him.
Soon, a layer of pitch-black fog rose in the area where Wen Tianhou was, blocking everyone's exploration. No one knew what was happening inside.
At this time, Wen Tianhou looked over there, where Zhu Hun, Jin Yu, and Cheng Feng were. They were all gathered together. Except for the three of them who were a little worried, everyone else was incomparably confident that Wen Tianhou would definitely win. Even now, they were still full of hope for him.
"In the current situation, I have to give up on you guys," Wen Tianhou sighed softly. Then, with a thought, he pulled them over.
All of the Demon Soul subordinates suddenly looked confused as they carefully flew over from this side.
Zhu Hun looked at the actions of the people next to him and did not know what was going on. Then, he saw Jin Yu and Cheng Feng's expressions change. Suddenly, a layer of defense appeared around their bodies, as if they were resisting something. This made him even more confused.
"Heavenly King, you can't do this. Lord Chi Hong will not forgive you!" Cheng Feng said carefully.
Jin Yu also wanted to say something, but as the outer layer of defense was broken, he plunged into the black fog. Then, a loud scream rose from inside, as if he was suffering from something terrifying.
They had been loyally following the Heavenly King here. When he was needed, the Heavenly King sacrificed them without hesitation.
At this time, the Monster Souls that flew over also entered one by one, but they did not cause any ripples.
"Zhu Hun, run quickly. The Heavenly King is crazy. He wants to use us as his tonics." Cheng Feng's only eye was already bloodshot. He could not hold on any longer, so he immediately shouted at Zhu Hun.
"Why!" Zhu Hun did not understand Wen Tianhou's actions. At this time, the other party had not forced him to such an extent that he had to sacrifice all his subordinates.
"The other party needs to replenish his foundation to be able to release powerful spells, and we are his …"
Before Cheng Feng could finish his words, his eyes rolled back. Finally, he could not bear the huge pressure and fainted. Then, he was also pulled inside.
"But I also want to die for the Heavenly King. Don't you feel honored?" Zhu Hun murmured.
His entire life belonged to Wen Tianhou, and this was completely different from his subordinates. He was equivalent to Wen Tianhou's follower, and could never betray him. For the sake of Wen Tianhou and his own beliefs, he could abandon everything, even his own life.
Soon, all the Monster Souls, except for Zhu Hun, disappeared. This made the people below even more surprised. They did not know what Wen Tianhou was doing. The only good news was that the power of the black beam of light was constantly weakening. At least they did not have to worry about the other party breaking through their defense.
The black fog in front of Wen Tianhou also quickly dissipated, and a layer of spherical picture scroll had already completely protected Wen Tianhou inside.
