WHOOSH!
As an Original Great Emperor Realm martial artist, the Demon Emperor’s speed was incredible, like a long rainbow piercing the sun. In the blink of an eye, he arrived at the ground battlefield, only to see the soldiers of the four major legions being brutally slaughtered by the Qin army.
Where are my beloved generals? The Demon Emperor’s dragon eyes narrowed sharply, filled with disbelief. Could it be that the main generals of the four legions were defeated by the Qin generals during my fight with Bai Qi? This is impossible! It has been such a short ti!
He knew the strength of the four major legions very well. Even the weakest, the Ancient Court Legion, could be invincible in the Ten-thousand-year Great Emperor Realm. The stronger Demon Tiger Legion, Sky Mantis Legion, and Crimson Gold Legion could even match the Original Great Emperor Realm.
"KILL!"
At this mont, Bai Qi’s cold voice descended from the Nine Heavens. Six world-shocking beams of imnse light, like six falling teors, shattered a large swathe of the Void, their滔天 killing intent radiating out, shaking the firmant.
BANG!
Imasurable Power of Laws surged, with Bai Qi leading and the other five generals assisting. They launched a combined attack, conjuring six terrifying techniques, their ferocious might filling the sky. Devastating energy swept through, shattering a thousand miles of Void and causing space itself to collapse completely, impenetrable even by sunlight. The Bloodwave Valley began to tremble. Countless pieces of debris were swept up, instantly disintegrating into dust and vanishing, leaving nothing behind.
"AH!" The Demon Emperor roared to the sky, a billion zhang of fury blazing upwards. "Power of Fortune, empower !" He consud one percent of the Ten Thousand Demon Saint’s Court’s Fortune. His face turned chillingly cold as he wielded the ’Demon God Sword’ and slashed down fiercely.
Sword Qi of utmost sharpness filled Heaven and Earth, severing the Nine Heavens and shattering all laws! This strike was the Demon Emperor’s strongest. It incorporated the power of the divine beast Yazi, was bolstered by nine eras of accumulated Fortune from the Ten Thousand Demon Saint’s Court, and possessed the great power to turn decay into legend. Sword light crisscrossed, its brilliant, stark white radiance illuminating the land.
The vast, boundless Ancient Court Dao Domain also trembled violently at this mont. The fierce winds dissipated, and countless soft plants stood ramrod straight, exuding faint traces of sharp power.
BOOM!
A flash of heavenly light. The attacks from both sides collided. Heaven and Earth erupted in a massive upheaval; a scene of Armageddon unfolded within a thousand-mile radius. Mountain after mountain collapsed! Innurable ancient trees were uprooted and annihilated into ash!
Especially the Bloodwave Valley, situated directly beneath the battlefield, suffered a devastating blow. Two mountain ranges, stretching for thousands of miles, seed to writhe like burrowing dragons, bringing down myriad layers of rock that crushed everything below. The ferocious, destructive force, like a surging ocean, blotted out the sky and completely engulfed the entire Bloodwave Valley.
At this mont, whether they were the soldiers of the foreign races from the Ten Thousand Demon Saint’s Court, the soldiers of the foreign races from the East Border, or the Qin army soldiers, none could escape.
High above, seven figures were sent flying backward, their blood灑苍穹, shattering large expanses of the Void.
So strong! The Demon Emperor tumbled several tis in the Void, spitting out mouthfuls of fresh blood before finally stabilizing himself. Six horrifying wounds, oozing blood, remained on his massive body.
Hundreds of thousands of zhang away, Bai Qi, Zhao Yun, Lv Bu, Wang Jian, Xiang Yu, and Yue Fei stood firm in the Void. Each had a ghastly, bone-deep sword wound on their chest. However, compared to the Demon Emperor, their injuries could only be considered minor.
Damn it! The corners of the Demon Emperor’s mouth twitched, and he cursed inwardly. He had no more thoughts of fighting. Dragging his battered body, he directly tore open the Void and fled into the distance. If he continued to fight, he truly feared he might perish.
Watching the retreating Demon Emperor, a murderous glint flashed in Bai Qi’s eyes. He was about to give chase, but for so unknown reason, he felt a pang of unease and couldn’t help but look towards the Bloodwave Valley. He knew that if he pursued and killed the Demon Emperor, the soldiers of the foreign races from the Ten Thousand Demon Saint’s Court, the soldiers of the foreign races from the East Border, and the Qin soldiers of the six legions would all suffer heavy losses.
Let the soldiers of the foreign races from the Ten Thousand Demon Saint’s Court die for all I care! But the soldiers of the foreign races from the East Border, and the Qin soldiers of the six legions... am I to simply watch them be annihilated and do nothing? Unacceptable! Of course not!
"CUT!"
In an instant, Bai Qi made his decision. With a wave of his hands, boundless Spiritual Energy erupted, enveloping the foreign races from the East Border and the Qin soldiers of the six legions, forming a defensive shield.
Seeing this, Zhao Yun, Lv Bu, Wang Jian, Xiang Yu, and Yue Fei inwardly sighed in relief. They had genuinely feared that Bai Qi, in the heat of battle, would beco lost in the Way of Slaughter and turn into a heartless and ungrateful person, disregarding the lives of countless soldiers.
"SOLIDIFY!"
The five generals smiled and released streams of Spiritual Energy, rging them into the defensive shield to strengthen it. As for the soldiers of the foreign races from the Ten Thousand Demon Saint’s Court, it was already rciful that the Qin generals didn’t kick them while they were down; they certainly wouldn’t offer any aid.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
With a deafening rumble, the two mountain ranges completely collapsed. Countless boulders, each weighing tens of thousands of tons, cascaded down, completely burying the entire Bloodwave Valley and kicking up a sky full of dust.
"DISPERSE!" Bai Qi commanded softly. A gust of wind blew away the dust.
The once-deep Bloodwave Valley was now completely filled with massive rocks. However, at its very center, a large protective shield stood firm, securely protecting the Qin soldiers and the soldiers of the foreign races from the East Border. There were no casualties.
"Thank you, General!"
"Your subordinates thank you, General, for saving our lives!"
Innurable soldiers of the foreign races from the East Border knelt on the ground, kowtowing incessantly. Deep gratitude shone in their variously colored eyes. Although the foreign races are cruel and bloodthirsty, as intelligent beings, they too possess the seven emotions and six desires; they understand gratitude. It was just that, in most cases, their benevolent side was ruthlessly suppressed by slaughter!
"Get up!" Bai Qi said, taken aback for a mont before waving his hand. "Find a place to rest!"
He hadn’t expected that the soldiers of the foreign races he had casually saved would show him such sincere gratitude. This caused a rare trace of warmth to touch his increasingly cold heart. In fact, after comprehending the Law of the Way of Slaughter, his ntality had undergone a significant change. He had beco cold and emotionless, even leaning towards the Way of Heartlessness. If he continued cultivating this way, he would use the Way of Heartlessness to supplent the deficiencies in his Way of Slaughter and comprehend the origin of the Way of Slaughter. But in doing so, he would lose his human emotions.
What exactly is the Way of Slaughter? Bai Qi imdiately pondered this question again. Should I beco a person who only knows slaughter? Or soone who controls the Way of Slaughter through human nature?
Thinking of the Vermilion Bird Army, with whom he had spent day and night! Thinking of the gratitude shown by those he had saved! Bai Qi seed to have an epiphany.
Control the slaughter!
Suddenly, Bai Qi smiled faintly. He sheathed his blood-red sword, and the Power of Laws swirling around him beca purer. It seed he had made a significant breakthrough. His direction of comprehending the Dao also shifted at this mont, from the Heartless Way of Slaughter to the Sentient Way of Slaughter.
「Two days later,」
Bai Qi led his army to attack the Ancient Court Dao Domain. After resolving to walk the path of the Sentient Way of Slaughter, Bai Qi’s style of warfare reverted to its previous state. Although still brutal and bloody, he at least no longer used the soldiers of the foreign races from the East Border as cannon fodder. He even began to accept prisoners of war!
Due to the devastating defeat in the Battle of Bloodwave Valley, the Demon Emperor was severely wounded and had escaped with no news of him since. Consequently, the entire Ten Thousand Demon Saint’s Court was leaderless, with no army to assist the Ancient Court Dao Domain. This ant the Ancient Court Dao Domain lacked a decent army of foreign races to resist the invading Qin forces.
After holding out for more than ten days, the Ancient Court Dao Domain completely fell!
With this, the Qin army occupied one-third of the Ten Thousand Demon Saint’s Court’s territory!
When this news spread, the world was greatly shocked!
