Doesn't the Underworld Palace Have a Reputation to Uphold

Meanwhile, the battle on the other side was far more tragic and intense than onlookers had imagined!

Xiao Ruobai, Fang Hanyu, Ling Xi, and Fatty Wang were facing four peak King Realm assassins from the Netherworld Palace, who were by no means ordinary!

These four were gold-medal assassins who had fought their way out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Their hands were stained with blood, their combat experience was terrifyingly rich, and they had even comprehended Saint Intent. Their strength far surpassed the previous Venerable Withered Bone!

Any one of them, taken out individually, would be enough to stir up a storm of blood in the Eastern Region!

As soon as they clashed, Xiao Ruobai and the other three felt unprecedented pressure!

But as the battle continued, Xiao Ruobai, Fang Hanyu, Ling Xi, and Fatty Wang gradually adapted to the rhythm of the fight.

Instead of being suppressed, they unleashed astonishing momentum!

Xiao Ruobai's War God Physique surged with vitality, like a War God possessed. The Nine Heavens Dragon Soul Halberd transformed into a golden mad dragon, its attacks sweeping and open, fierce and unmatched, actually forcing Nether Fiend, who was fighting him, to retreat repeatedly.

Where the halberd's wind passed, rocks shattered. Although Nether Fiend was also a peak King, he could only rely on eerie movement techniques to barely maneuver, not daring to meet its edge head-on!

Fang Hanyu's Absolute Beginning Sword had already been drawn, and the Primal Chaos Sword Domain unfolded. The grayish sword qi was like an invisible mire, shrouding the surroundings.

Fang Hanyu's sword technique was ethereal, every strike pointing directly at the weak points of his opponent's cultivation method operation, forcing Nether Luo to parry left and right, surrounded by danger!

The most surprising were Ling Xi and Fatty Wang's side!

Ling Xi's figure was elusive, like a banished immortal descending to the world. She didn't use any dazzling spells, just seemingly casually slapping out a few palms and pointing out a few fingers, but she could always easily neutralize Nether Bone and Nether Soul's tricky and ruthless combined attacks in the nick of time.

Fatty Wang, hiding behind Ling Xi, waved his hands, actually rapidly inscribing talismans. This scene made everyone stare blankly, and even Ling Xi couldn't help but take a few more looks. It could be played like this?

Following the little fatty's inscription, talismans flashing with various lights were thrown out by him as if they cost nothing!

These talismans were by no means low-grade goods!

Lightning Talismans, Freezing Talismans, Phantom Talismans...

These talismans alone were not powerful enough to heavily injure peak King assassins, but their effects were bizarre, emerging endlessly, and the timing was grasped just right, always able to interrupt the assassins' offensive rhythm.

The four peak King assassins of the Netherworld Palace were complaining bitterly in their hearts at this moment, feeling incredibly stifled!

They originally thought that dealing with four Heaven Realm brats, even if they had heaven-defying combat power, the four of them joining hands should be an easy capture, a crushing momentum. But upon fighting, they found out it was not the case at all!

Battle Asura's fierce and domineering combat, the Primal Chaos Sword Physique's eerie and difficult to deal with nature, that girl's unfathomable response, and this little fatty's endlessly annoying talisman harassment...

The four of them cooperated tacitly, integrating offense and defense, actually beating them, four peak Kings, to the point of only having the power to parry, retreating step by step!

They had already added many wounds to their bodies. Although not fatal, they were in a sorry state!

"Why hasn't the leader finished yet?!"

The four assassins shouted anxiously in their hearts, "If we continue fighting, let alone completing the task, the few of us might really plant ourselves here!

How is this acting? This is clearly risking our lives!"

They felt as if they were the ones being "assassinated"!

You Heaven Realm guys, at least spit out a mouthful of blood. So many people are watching, doesn't my Netherworld Palace need face...

The cultivators secretly spying from afar were already stunned by this battle situation that subverted their cognition!

"My God! Battle Asura and the others... are actually pressing them down and beating them?!"

"Those are gold-medal assassins of the Netherworld Palace! Not ordinary Kings!"

"That girl is too terrifying! Did you see, she hasn't even panted heavily until now!"

"The most outrageous is that little fatty! What kind of talismans are those? Why is the power so great? And he's fucking inscribing them on the spot?"

Various divine senses rapidly communicated in the dark, filled with unbelievable shock.

The terrifying combat power displayed by the four of Battle Asura completely refreshed their cognition of geniuses!

Just as the four assassins were about to be unable to hold on and were frantically complaining in their hearts, the situation on the main battlefield suddenly changed!

"Old Ghost Xuanyin! Die for me!"

The shadow avatar let out a hoarse roar, completely ignoring Venerable Xuanyin's Profound Yin Ghost Claw grabbing towards its head. The shadow giant scythe tore through space, piercing straight at his heart!

Venerable Xuanyin dodged in shock!

"Pfft!"

Although the giant scythe didn't pierce his heart, it ruthlessly penetrated under his ribs! The violent shadow power instantly invaded his body!

"Ugh ah——!"

Venerable Xuanyin let out a shrill scream, his eyes instantly filled with endless madness and resentment.

"Netherworld Palace! You will die a horrible death! Let's die together!"

He actually stopped defending, the Saint Source in his body frantically burning and compressing, and a destructive energy fluctuation swept out! He was going to self-destruct!

"Want to drag me down with you? Wishful thinking!"

The shadow avatar sneered, not retreating, but instead its whole body turned into incredibly solid shadow shackles, tightly entwining Venerable Xuanyin, runes flashing, frantically imprisoning his Saint Yuan.

"No——!" Venerable Xuanyin roared in despair, the self-destruction process forcefully interfered with and delayed.

However, how terrifying was the energy of a peak Quasi-Saint's desperate strike?

A more powerful energy suddenly erupted from Venerable Xuanyin's body. After a brief stalemate, the destructive power finally lost control——

"Boom rumble rumble——!!!!!"

An earth-shattering explosion resounded through the clouds, and the destructive light mass swallowed everything!

The shadow avatar was completely annihilated in the core of the explosion.

"Boom rumble rumble——!!!!!"

The terrifying explosion light mass soared into the sky, and the destructive shockwave frantically swept out like a tsunami! The entire valley trembled violently, the earth was torn apart, and the peaks were leveled!

The first to bear the brunt, the shadow avatar, was completely annihilated in the core of the explosion.

At the last moment of its complete dissipation, a roar full of extreme unwillingness and resentment resounded through heaven and earth:

"You actually have a trump card? Damn it! Glazed Holy Land, you set me up!!!"

The aftermath of the destruction also ruthlessly crashed into the battle group on the flank!

Xiao Ruobai and the other three combined their forces to defend, but were still shaken until their qi and blood churned. Those four Netherworld Palace assassins also suffered heavy injuries, spitting blood in unison, their injuries suddenly worsening.

Seeing this, Nether Fiend forcefully lifted a breath of qi, glared fiercely at Xiao Ruobai and the others with eyes full of resentment and fear, and roared: "Retreat!"

The four heavily injured assassins fled in a sorry state, turning into dim escaping lights, frantically fleeing towards the distant sky, and instantly disappeared.

The valley instantly fell into dead silence, leaving only a huge deep pit.

All the pryers in the distance were silent, completely shocked speechless by this tragic and dramatic ending.

Fatty Wang slumped on the ground with his buttocks: "Is it finally over?"

Xiao Ruobai wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his brows tightly locked. Fang Hanyu's face was pale, the hand holding the sword trembling slightly.

Ling Xi stood quietly in place, her deep gaze looking towards the direction the assassins disappeared. The strength displayed by the Netherworld Palace and their final performance were almost perfect.

But she always felt that there was an invisible pair of eyes, calmly watching all this, manipulating all this.

However, the crisis in front of them was finally over.

Everyone was left speechless, utterly shaken by this tragic and dramatic conclusion.

The news spread like a hurricane, sweeping toward every corner of the Eastern Region at an incredible speed—

"The Netherworld Palace's assassination attempt has failed! They lost a peak Quasi-Saint assassin, and four peak Kings were severely injured!"

"Battle Asura and Sword in White are suspected to be heavily injured, but they are still alive!"

"The mysterious Quasi-Saint, Venerable Xuanyin, was drawn into the conflict and perished together with the Quasi-Saint of the Netherworld Palace!"

Around the valley, the prying divine senses receded like a fading tide, carrying away endless shock and their own hidden agendas.

The next chapter update will be a little late, I am currently writing it!
