A fiery red radiance flashed past like a firework, and the stench of burnt flesh began to fill the air. The deafening explosion caused the spectating inner court disciples to fall into a state of sluggishness.
It wasn't until the rain of blood and the pale white bones that were mixed with minced flesh fell from the sky like fireworks and scattered all over the training field that the suppressed cries of surprise, the sounds of cold air being sucked in, and the terrified gazes surged like the surface of the sea being blown by the wind!
The Heaven-gang Realm experts of the Commandeering Talisman Peak, who had the advantage in numbers, were all tongue-tied because of this drastic change. One of them even rubbed his eyes in disbelief, thinking it was an illusion.
As for He Zhaixing's father, He Wanshan, he maintained the posture of shouting "No" just now. His right hand was still trying hard to reach into the arena, as if he wanted to stop the extremely horrible thing he had discovered from happening.
But in fact, the extremely horrible thing he had discovered still happened. The power of the explosion of the Five Elements Fire Thunder turned He Zhaixing, who had temporarily broken through to the Heaven-gang Realm, into minced flesh in an instant.
The huge explosion thrust even blasted the bits of flesh that had not been vaporized by the Fire Thunder onto He Wanshan, who was nearly 300 meters away from the center of the explosion.
The bits of flesh fell on He Wanshan's head, face, and right arm like raindrops. When the bits of flesh fell on He Wanshan's right arm and were reflected in He Wanshan's lifeless eyes, He Wanshan's right mountain began to tremble slowly and violently.
"Xing … er …" He Wanshan murmured his son's name in an extremely sorrowful tone. A sense of regret surged into his heart, making He Wanshan's heart feel as if it had been bitten by the King Cobra Dragon, which was unbearably painful.
"It's me who harmed Xing 'er. Since I have already judged that Ling Dong is the candidate chosen by Ancestor Stargazer, why did I still want to kill him on the spot? I should have stopped this battle … "
When He Wanshan's painful murmur came out, it surprised all the peak masters present. He Wanshan's painful expression suddenly became unusually fierce. "Five Elements Fire Thunder, it's actually the Five Elements Fire Thunder! Old Stargazer, you are so vicious! He actually bestowed this little thief with such a great killing weapon! "
He Wanshan gnashed his teeth and scolded. His bloodshot eyes turned slowly along with his head and stared at Ling Dong like a vicious wolf, "Old man Guan Xing, since you did this, don't blame me for doing the same thing to you. Little thief, give me back my son's life!"
The moment the last six words left his mouth, He Wanshan had already shot towards Ling Dong like an arrow released from a bow. A frightening cyan cloud began to condense around He Wanshan's peak.
In the blink of an eye, the cyan cloud around He Wanshan was as thick as a small mountain. When the cyan cloud reached its peak, its color turned into a kind of cyan black. Looking from afar, He Wanshan, who was rushing towards Ling Dong, looked like a terrifying cyan black thundercloud. His momentum was extremely terrifying!
Since he used the Five Elements Thunder to kill He Zhaixing at the last moment, Ling Dong had been paying attention to He Wanshan's movements. He had killed He Wanshan's own son. If He Wanshan didn't have a temper, it would be really terrifying.
Therefore, the moment He Wanshan rushed over, Ling Dong retreated quickly. However, Ling Dong didn't make any attack movement. He just glanced slightly in the direction of Stargazer House while retreating.
He shouldn't be He Wanshan's opponent.
Killing He Zhaixing was the request of Ancestor Stargazer and Sect Leader Chu Fangyue. It was also Ling Dong's own wish. However, after killing He Zhaixing, Ling Dong wanted to see whether Ancestor Stargazer and Sect Leader Chu Fangyue treated him as a trusted subordinate or as a tool.
It was easy to judge. It just depended on whether there was anyone who could take on the furious He Wanshan. If there was, it meant that Ancestor Stargazer and Chu Fangyue treated Ling Dong sincerely. If there wasn't, they were just tools.
Of course, Ling Dong wouldn't be so stupid to do nothing. It was too easy for He Wanshan, an expert at the late stage of Heaven-gang Realm, to kill Ling Dong. If Ling Dong was careless, he would fall into his trap.
Therefore, Ling Dong almost took out all his trump cards, just in case.
The Spirit Sealing Beast Soul Talisman that sealed the soul of a Fire-Winged Heavenly Eagle, a demonic beast at the early stage of Heaven-gang Realm, two Five Elements Thunder, one gold and one fire, in the sea of consciousness of the Divine Soul, and the Great Luo Powder given to him by Master Yuanchen Yuan. Ling Dong believed that there was no problem to protect his life with these.
Just as this thought flashed through his mind, Ling Dong suddenly felt suffocated. His whole body seemed to have fallen into sticky mud, and his movements suddenly became extremely difficult.
When Ling Dong raised his head, he saw He Wanshan's blood-red eyes and a murderous aura that was pressing down on him like a mountain.
How terrifying was the wrath of a Heaven-gang Realm expert? Ling Dong now experienced it. With just a glance, his ability to move was sealed.
Ling Dong knew that this should be a powerful Magical Secret Art. The Magical Secret Art could only be broken by the power of the Divine Soul. However, even though Ling Dong's Divine Soul was supplemented by the colorful starlight from the Star Descending Plate, it was still at a low point at this time, let alone breaking this kind of Divine Soul Shackle.
With a fierce look, Ling Dong's finger had already pressed on the jade talisman of the Spirit Sealing Beast Soul Talisman. The jade bottle of Great Luo Powder appeared in his palm, and two Five Elements Thunder were already in his left hand.
Ling Dong was not afraid of a head-on fight!
Just as Ling Dong was preparing to use the Spirit Sealing Beast Soul Talisman and the Five Elements Thunder to entangle He Wanshan, and then use the Great Luo Powder to suppress the enemy, Head Chu Fangyue moved first.
"He Wanshan, is the sect's major competition a place for you to fight?" At the same time, a majestic Divine Soul power swept past Ling Dong. Ling Dong, who was about to fight, suddenly felt his body lighten, and he regained his ability to move again.
The moment he retreated, Chu Fangyue had already fought with He Wanshan. Not only Chu Fangyue, but Zhang Bingzheng, the Peak Master of the Hundred Formation Peak, and Nian Yihu, the Peak Master of the Fire Elixir Peak, were also summoned by Chu Fangyue to fight against He Wanshan together.
It was still very easy for a Heaven-gang Realm expert to take the opportunity to kill a person in the battle. Therefore, Chu Fangyue summoned all the Peak Masters to fight together and save Ling Dong.
"You don't allow me to behave atrociously, so you're allowed to bestow a killing weapon like the Five Elements Thunder to murder my son? I must kill this little bastard today. Who's in my way? "He Wanshan's crazy voice made everyone's expression change.
The five Elders of the True Dragon Palace, who were originally in charge of the sect's major competition, had already gathered together. They vaguely looked at the four Heaven-gang Realm experts of the Commandeering Talisman Peak, waiting for an opportunity to act.
The four Commandeering Talisman Peak stood with swords in their hands. Their bodies were shrouded in earth energy, and their killing intent was awe-inspiring. Once this happened, except for the Wanqi Peak Master who led the many inner disciples to retreat, the rest of the four peaks of the True Gang Sect revealed their killing intent and earth energy. A great battle was about to break out, and the True Gang Sect's internal chaos was imminent!
"Hmph, old man He, so you're allowed to slaughter my Hundred Formation Peak's disciples? My Hundred Formation Peak's disciples killed two of your Commandeering Talisman Peak's disciples, and you want to kill my disciples to vent your anger. What kind of logic is this? Fine, fine, fine, I'll reason with you! "Zhang Bingzheng, the Peak Master of the Hundred Formation Peak, was the angriest when he heard He Wanshan's words.
It seemed that his Commandeering Talisman Peak's disciples were all precious treasures. Were the Hundred Formation Peak's disciples just scrap metal that could be killed at will?
At this moment, Ling Dong had just left the arena. When he was about to focus on watching the battle, a fragrant wind came from beside him. "Little Junior Brother, are you alright?" It was Qiu Qingyi who rushed to Ling Dong's side with her sword.
"I'm fine!" After replying, Ling Dong turned his head and glanced at Qiu Qingyi's concerned eyes. He was electrified by her gaze. However, under such circumstances, Ling Dong didn't think too much about it. He just watched the tense situation nervously.
Ling Dong focused on the overall situation of the True Gang Sect. If such a large-scale internal strife occurred in the True Gang Sect, the strength of the True Gang Sect would plummet.
At this time, Ling Dong had already believed that the Sect Master Chu Fangyue and the Ancestor Stargazer treated him sincerely. Therefore, the identity of the successor of the Sect Master was also true. In other words, the True Gang Sect was already Ling Dong's property to some extent. Ling Dong naturally didn't want such an internal strife to happen.
However, Ling Dong didn't understand why the Ancestor Stargazer didn't appear at this time.
Moreover, with the wisdom and ruthlessness of the Ancestor Stargazer, why didn't he eliminate the He Family of the Commandeering Talisman Peak as soon as possible? As the saying goes, a short pain is better than a long pain. With the strength of the Ancestor Stargazer, he could eliminate this scourge quickly with lightning speed. Was it better than fighting with internal strife?
Just when Ling Dong was pondering, He Wanshan, who was besieged by three Heaven-gang Realm experts including the Sect Master Chu Fangyue and was in a disadvantageous position, suddenly had a stern expression.
A piece of yellow jade talisman suddenly appeared in He Wanshan's palms. Then, He Wanshan stopped all attacks and shouted in an unusually fierce voice, "Don't force this old man … to make a life and death struggle … move!"
The moment they saw the yellow jade talisman appear, whether it was Chu Fangyue, Zhang Bingzheng, or Nian Yihu, the two peak masters, their bodies trembled at the same time. They retreated at the same time and surrounded He Wanshan in the air in a semicircle.
Seeing that the thing he showed forced Chu Fangyue and the others to retreat, He Wanshan revealed a complacent and hideous smile, "Sect Master, don't force me. I only have one request. Kill Ling Dong with my own hands and avenge my son and nephew!"
He Wanshan said the last few words word by word while gnashing his teeth, looking extremely hideous!
"A pale yellow jade talisman? What kind of talisman is this? Why is the Sect Master and the others so afraid? "Ling Dong, who had been staring at the four people in the sky, was also puzzled.
However, the situation on the ground became tense again because of the appearance of this jade talisman. Because everyone on the ground understood that when He Wanshan made a life and death struggle, it was the time for the internal strife of the True Gang Sect!
"Humph! Life and death struggle? Wanshan, sometimes, even if the fish dies, the net may not break! " A faintly discernible voice suddenly appeared beside everyone's ears. When everyone was searching for the source of the voice, Ancestor Stargazer, dressed in a Daoist robe, suddenly appeared between He Wanshan, Chu Fangyue, and the other two.
Seeing the appearance of Ancestor Stargazer, He Wanshan was not surprised at all. He just cracked a hideous smile and said provocatively, "If you don't believe me, you can … try!"
What made Ling Dong extremely surprised was that Ancestor Stargazer actually endured He Wanshan's provocation and did not attack immediately. He just said indifferently, "Don't forget that you, He Wanshan, are not the only one in the He Family. Moreover, do you think that you have the chance to use the treasured talisman that was left behind? "
"Hahahaha …"
He Wanshan, on the other hand, burst into wild laughter. His laughter was filled with misery and pain.
In the midst of his wild laughter, He Wanshan pointed at the bloody rain on the martial arts field and shouted, "Whether I have the chance to use the treasured talisman that was left behind or not, my dead Xing 'er is the best evidence. In the process of using this treasured talisman, any attack on me will be blocked by this treasured talisman. Ancestor, do you think I have the chance? "
"Also, Ancestor, look at what you've done. For your own selfish reasons, you actually gave the Five Elements Strong Thunder, such a great killing weapon, to an inner disciple who just entered the sect to deal with my son. You've gone too far, gone too far!"
"What? You think that Ling Dong's Five Elements Fire Lightning was given to him by me?" Hearing this, Ancestor Stargazer revealed a shocked expression, "Wanshan, your Zhai Xing is indeed more ostentatious. However, I don't need to use such underhanded means to deal with him! Let me tell you, the Five Elements Fire Lightning that Ling Dong used was personally refined by him! "
"Personally refined by him? Hahahaha, Old Man Stargazer, do you think that I'm a three-year-old child? Unless he started cultivating the Five Elements True Dipper when he was in his mother's womb … "
In the face of He Wanshan's wild laughter, Ancestor Stargazer only said a few words indifferently, "Dong 'er, withdraw your Five Elements Strong Thunder and let Wanshan strike it!"
Ling Dong, who couldn't understand why Ancestor Stargazer would yield, could only do as he was told. The two Five Elements Strong Thunders, one gold and one fire, carried a terrifying might. After whistling in the air, they directly smashed towards Ling Dong's head.
Just as they were about to smash into Ling Dong's head and explode, the two Five Elements Strong Thunders, one gold and one fire, suddenly burst into a ball of faint light and disappeared in the blink of an eye!
"This … This …" He Wanshan and the group of Heavenly Dipper Realm experts on the ground widened their eyes in an instant. Their eyes were filled with disbelief.
Even Chu Fangyue, Zhang Bingzheng, and the others, although they already knew about this beforehand, were still extremely shocked when they saw it again. That was the Five Elements Strong Thunder, a Five Elements Strong Thunder that could kill a Heavenly Dipper Realm expert.
"This … How is this possible?" After a long while, He Wanshan finally spoke in an extremely surprised manner.
Hearing He Wanshan's admission, Ancestor Stargazer seized the opportunity and said, "Wanshan, do you understand now? No one intervened in the fight between Zhai Xing and Ling Dong. It was completely based on their true strength.
Ling Dong only used the Five Elements Fire Thunder when Zhai Xing was in a life and death situation after using the Realm Breaking Talisman! So, don't be unreasonable! "
Ancestor Stargazer's words were extremely tactful. When He Wanshan's expression changed, he shook his head fiercely and said, "Ancestor, I only have one request today. Kill this evil thief Ling Dong with my own hands and avenge my son. Otherwise, I'll fight to the death, no matter what!"
"He Wanshan, do you have any shame? Regardless of the casualties in the sect's grand competition, why didn't your disciples pay with their lives when they killed my disciple?" Zhang Bingzheng, the Peak Master of Hundred Formation Peak, was so angry that he cursed.
However, He Wanshan ignored him and continued to say with red eyes, "Ancestor, as long as you agree to my request, let me kill this villain with my own hands! From tomorrow onwards, I'll give up the position of Yufu Peak Master and hand over all the special books of Yufu Peak! "
As soon as he said that, everyone was shocked!
