584: Chapter 33 Funeral Procession _1 584: Chapter 33 Funeral Procession _1 “Damn it!”
The King of Bian Cheng wearing the Yama Mask was uncontrollably furious.
The Heavenly Abode Secret Land was one of the secret realms personally managed by the Qi Country officials, so there were always powerful guardians stationed there, maintaining order.
The City Lord of Heavenly Mansion City was a peak expert of the External Building Environnt, possessing the strength to battle him.
However, just that alone wouldn’t be enough to stop him and the King of the City from joining forces.
According to the previous plan, King Song and the King of Equality were responsible for annihilating the Jinghai Gao Clan, while he and the King of the City were tasked with breaching Heavenly Mansion City.
Putting aside Linhai County for the mont, here in Near the Sea County, he had agreed with the King of the City to attack from the south and north simultaneously, join forces to swiftly kill the City Lord of Heavenly Mansion City, and then escape amidst the chaos.
The plan was crystal clear, however…
At this mont, he was engaged in a fierce battle at the southern gate, but the north was completely quiet!
How could he not know that the King of the City had played him!
It was obvious that he had been used to draw the attention of the Qi Country officials, and by now the King of the City might have already fled to the sea!
When he reported this, the King of the City would inevitably face relentless internal assassination from Hell Has No Door.
Whether he fled to the heavens or hid in the depths of the earth, he would unquestionably die.
But even the King of Qin Guang might not be able to leave the Qi Boundary alive, and it could even be said that facing Yue Leng, he was the one with the slimst chance of survival.
Who would uphold the rules?
Who would organize the assassination?
Not to ntion, if he himself got entangled in Heavenly Mansion City, by the ti other powerful cultivators from Qi Country received the news and rushed over, where would there be a chance to reveal this matter!
The King of Bian Cheng was also a decisive individual, realizing that due to the betrayal of the King of the City, he had fallen into a grave crisis.
He imdiately threw caution to the wind and deployed his trump card.
He called forth all three souls, howling without concern for the consequences!
Human beings possess three souls, called the Heaven Soul, Earth Soul, and Human Soul, also known as the Fetal Light, the Lively Spirit, and the Shadowy Essence.
If the Heaven Soul is damaged, one becos idiotic.
If the Earth Soul is damaged, one becos insane.
If the Human Soul is damaged, one will be plagued with illnesses.
If all three souls are injured, not even ghosts or gods can save you.
For the King of Bian Cheng, this was a technique he would not easily reveal to others.
But at this very mont, he had no choice but to use it to swiftly severely injure the City Lord of Heavenly Mansion City, in order to achieve his goal and leave the realm.
It could even be said that the betrayal and escape of the King of the City had almost obliterated all his chances of survival.
This was his only opportunity!
The City Lord of Heavenly Mansion City was undoubtedly a powerful expert, capable of challenging the King of Bian Cheng, but he had been stationed in Qi Country’s Heavenly Mansion City for many years, and although it wasn’t quite living in luxury, it had been a ti of peace, after all, he wasn’t as decisive as the King of Bian Cheng, who constantly wandered the line between life and death.
He never expected that while both sides were still probing each other’s foundations, his opponent suddenly brought out life-or-death tactics so fierce that he was caught off guard!
As he watched the three shaking souls, his vision spun and his spirit was confused.
He was greatly alard, but then, suddenly, he saw a figure.
A hunched, elderly silhouette.
That figure appeared silently in front of him without a sound.
The person held a white paper lantern in one hand, with a steady candlelight, while the other emaciated and aged hand pressed forward.
It was just a press.
The three howling souls of the King of Bian Cheng simultaneously shattered, his life force cut off instantaneously, and he fell from the sky!
The City Lord of Heavenly Mansion City escaped from the brink of death but was montarily so shocked that he lost the ability to speak.
When he regained his senses, the hunched old man had already disappeared from sight.
…
…
The azure sea rolled into a line at the horizon, the sun’s golden rays simultaneously tinting both the sky and the sea.
This was the very edge of Linhai County.
The power of the Qi Country’s Eastern Border Military did not station here, but the protective grand formation ca to an end at this location.
In the Near Sea Archipelago, Qi Country had its own islands and troops, but the grand formation could not be extended there.
The reason was that the masters of the Near Sea Archipelago, with Diao Hai Building at the helm, were sect forces and not Qi Country.
Diao Hai Building acknowledged those islands as belonging to Qi Country, but did not recognize them as part of the Qi Boundary.
This concept was not complicated; one could simply regard those islands as vassals of Qi Country.
The Yang Region also did not belong to the Qi Boundary in the past.
The forr is recognized due to the strength of Qi Country.
The latter is unrecognized because of the power of the sect forces on the archipelago!
Looking out at the endless sea, the King of the City finally let his guard down a bit.
Among the Yamas at Bi Yu County before, he was the only one who had a deep understanding of Wang the Coroner.
He was also very clear that the order for them to split forces and attack both Heavenly Mansion City and annihilate the Jinghai Gao Clan wouldn’t have co from the King of Qin Guang.
Especially when Wang the Coroner chose to act alone on the grounds of heavy losses and insufficient strength, he was even more certain of his judgnt.
But he said nothing.
Wang the Coroner wanted to take the chance to flee, and so did he!
So when the King of Bian Cheng boldly made his move, he didn’t even touch the city gate but sprinted straight to the seaside.
Qi Country’s coastline also had mariti defense, and Linhai County had thirteen docks with an endless stream of ships.
Although the mariti business was lucrative, even strict military control, making entry and exit difficult and complex, couldn’t stop rchants from pursuing their profits.
The King of the City rushed to the nearest dock without saying a word, exploded with full power, and imdiately attacked the grand formation.
The soldiers who ca to stop him were killed offhand by him.
He was in a hurry, so he wouldn’t go out of his way to slaughter these people, but if anyone tried to impede him, he didn’t mind getting his hands more bloodied.
The national defense formation at the defense points was actually the most likely to be breached, because it was one of the nodes of the grand formation.
The King of the City had a plan and acted decisively.
His weapon was a handleless dagger.
It looked like an ordinary piece of iron, except the tip was so dark that it seed to absorb all the light.
He pinched the “dagger” between his thumb and index finger and stabbed into the air.
Starlight twinkled above, and the five chambers inside his body stirred.
What seed simple and ordinary was actually him giving his full effort.
In the empty air where there was nothing, a faintly undulating screen of light suddenly appeared.
There was a chance!
He certainly couldn’t breach the national defense formation, but facing a national defense formation that was only on military alert, “stabbing” a tiny, short-lived gap to allow himself to escape still held so chance.
Because the military alert strength of the national defense formation at the ti was only within the scope of the External Building Environnt.
And as the top warrior of the Outer Building, bursting forth with his full power regardless of the loss, added up, there was a chance to break the limit of the Outer Building Environnt’s strength.
Under normal circumstances, his attack on the formation would imdiately be sensed and a powerful warrior would co down and kill him, not giving him the opportunity to stack his attacks.
But now, both Jinghai Gao Clan and Heavenly Mansion City were under attack, so which location would the powerful guardians of Qi Country’s formation choose to descend upon?
The King of the City was betting on that montary gap.
Therefore, without hesitation, he agitated the four levels of the Five Chambers and stabbed down again!
“Who?”
Right at his strongest peak state, the King of the City, holding the dagger, suddenly turned around.
And so he saw a hunched old man holding a white paper lantern.
His reaction was faster than the King of Bian Cheng’s, indicating his strength was stronger than the King of Bian Cheng’s.
And among the original ten Yamas of Hell Has No Door, the King of Bian Cheng was ranked sixth, he was ranked eighth.
This indicated he had always hidden his strength.
But facing the King of the City, who was stronger than the King of Bian Cheng, the blind night watchman remained composed, simply reaching out his hand to press forward.
That withered, frail hand that seed so powerless…
Yet, it was irresistible and impossible to defend against!
The King of the City had countless thoughts, a variety of secret techniques eager to be tried, yet he was too late and unable to move!
The aged blind night watchman held the white paper lantern steady, without a tremble.
His other hand simply reached out and pressed down.
The King of the City, who just monts ago was formidable and was aggressively attacking the grand formation under the watch of the entire dock, was now suddenly dead.
His body fell to the ground, and there was not a single mark to be seen on it!
And the blind night watchman changed direction with a step, and had once again disappeared.
