Chapter 1953: Surprise, Kill, Encircle (3)

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

A formation was tossed out by Great Ming King, instantly covering the entire Sealed Mountain. The formation wasn't too powerful, but it was enough to conceal the fluctuations from their battle for a short while.

The other heavenly kings noticed what was happening, and they were all reacting. They were all top experts. Thus, there was no hesitation in their reaction. Dao Yu was the nearest to the old woman. He had just turned around when he sensed the fluctuations behind him. He turned and shot back toward the old woman without hesitation.

He would reach in two to three seconds. But could the old woman last that long?

Unlikely.

Su Yu and a bunch of experts had approached her before she could react. Her dao was still actively suppressing Hundred Battle King, so she was essentially as strong as a tier-two Daofuse right now. How could she be their match?

Boom!

A deafening rumble rang out. A gigantic and colorful explosion erupted. The old woman didn't have the chance to release her dao power. She was still maintaining her seated posture when her body crumbled apart.

Her sea of willpower had just appeared before it was struck by the shockwaves and broke apart as well.

Dead.

That was too fast.

Dao Yu, who was still rushing over, roared in fury, "Damn it! Kill them all!"

Damn it!

He was still in the middle of his patrol. He had just been there not long ago. In the blink of an eye, Fellow Daoist Yu Lei had died. Of the attackers, only two auras were at the level of pseudo kings. The rest were below that level. After a quick estimation, Dao Yu concluded that this was a force they could kill.

"Blood Devil, get over here immediately!"

Dao Yu was calling for the help of the other real dao cultivator. So many experts had approached them undetected. This was too scary.

Su Yu looked at Lan Tian and said, "Dao Yu is mine."

Understanding dawned on Lan Tian. In that case, the other was his. The two soared into the sky, moving at an incomparably fast speed.

At the same time, Great Zhou King shouted at the others, "With me!"

They did not scatter. Instead, they charged toward another fake dao cultivator. Speed was of the utmost importance here.

***

Boom!

One second later, a deafening rumble rang out as Su Yu and Dao Yu clashed. Instead of stopping, Lan Tian flew past them and charged toward the incoming Blood Devil.

"Who are you?" Dao Yu demanded.

How audacious of them. They had attacked with only two pseudo kings. Had they gone mad?

Even further away, a rotting old man shouted, "Kill them! Make it quick! With Yu Lei's death, the seal on Hundred Battle King will loosen!"

Only then did Dao Yu's expression change.

"So this is your plan!"

He had nearly allowed his anger to distract him. True. Hundred Battle King could sense Yu Lei's death.

No wonder they dared to attack with only two pseudo kings. They were clearly aware of the fact that Hundred Battle King was being sealed by six experts. With one dead, Hundred Battle King could start his resistance.

No wonder the two pseudo kings of the group had focused on him and Blood Devil. These unknown attackers had clearly gathered detailed information about their arrangements. They knew way too much.

Was there an internal leak? Or did they learn this from the previous attempt to free Hundred Battle King? Were these people the companions of the previous attacker?

Chaos race.

He could clearly sense the faint chaos power emanating out of Su Yu and Lan Tian. Two pseudo kings, and both cultivated the chaos power.

"It's you! Chaos race!"

Recalling something, Dao Yu roared, "Die!"

Boom!

Su Yu met the incoming attack with a punch.

Su Yu was a fresh pseudo king, and he wasn't even using his pen dao. Thus, he was pushed back the moment they started fighting.

"A newly advanced pseudo king!"

Dao Yu snorted coldly. This person was simply courting death.

At that moment, a rumble rang out not far behind him. A mocking voice rang out, "This guy is also newly advanced. A little competition, Dao Yu? Let's see who can finish the fight faster."

Boom!

Yet another rumble rang out.

Great Zhou King's group had encountered a fake dao cultivator. A massive battle erupted between them as four other fake dao cultivators rushed over.

Or to be precise, three were rushing toward Great Zhou King's group while one was rushing toward Great Ming King, who was keeping the formation around them active. Up in the sky, Great Ming King's expression changed slightly.

As for Su Yu, he pulled back slightly and looked up at the various daos in the sky. Sure enough, the entire mountain started trembling violently.

A furious roar rang out.

"I can feel it! One of you is dead! Hahaha! Someone is here to save me!"

Hundred Battle King!

He could feel it. He could feel the loosening seal on him. One of the beings keeping him sealed had died!

Boom!

As the mountain shook, the expression of the expert flying toward Great Ming King changed. He gnashed his teeth and allocated even more of his dao power into the seal. Two other fake dao cultivators did the same as him.

All of them were focusing on keeping Hundred Battle King sealed. Damn it! He was resisting again! Even after allocating so much of his strength on keeping Hundred Battle King sealed, the heavenly king flying toward Great Ming King still maintained the strength of a tier-two Daofuse. After a short pause, he resumed his flight toward Great Ming King.

He had to first remove the formation master. This was a very familiar formation. The mysterious expert who had attacked them back then had used a similar formation. Of course, the mysterious expert back then was much stronger than the man in the sky. As long as he could break the formation, those outside would be able to sense the ongoing battle.

Right at that moment, Su Yu flipped his Mark of Civilization open and sent something out. He was still leaving the fake dao cultivators unsuppressed. That was because the heavenly kings had yet to come together. He would only start the suppression once they were grouped up. Otherwise, some might be able to escape them.

Boom!

And finally, the other three heavenly kings reached Great Zhou King's group. Even with a large portion of their strength drained to keep Hundred Battle King sealed, they were still able to instantly gain the upper hand in the clash against Great Zhou King's group.

Great Zhou King's group was showcasing an incredible level of strength, but Grandstar and Chong Ming were still too weak to handle a battle of this level.

***

Up in the sky.

When the heavenly king who was flying toward Great Ming King noticed the golden page tossed out by Su Yu, he frowned slightly. He did not dare to underestimate a pseudo king, even if that was a newly advanced pseudo king.

Nevertheless, he could see that the mysterious attacker was being suppressed by Dao Yu. The mysterious attacker must be dreaming for believing that a weapon alone was sufficient to deal with him.

He threw a punch at the incoming golden page. It didn't matter. He would first destroy this weapon. At the same time, Hundred Battle King was struggling intensely. He could sense that some people had arrived to save him. He could even sense some familiar auras among them.

"Stable Army. Cloud Fire! Are you here?

"Hahaha!"

Hundred Battle King roared with laughter. They were humans! Some were even his subordinates!

They had arrived!

Right at that moment, the flying page split open.

Instantly, South Suppression Marquis flew out. He could hear Hundred Battle King's voice! He trembled with excitement.

This was really happening!

The new human lord was really attacking the Sealed Mountain!

He wanted to charge straight into the mountain and help free Hundred Battle King, but he recalled Su Yu's words. He could only gnash his teeth and stay silent. Instead, he detonated his body.

The heavenly king recognized him the moment he appeared.

South Suppression Marquis!

A peak Daofuse!

In his current state, the heavenly king was similar in strength with South Suppression Marquis. This wasn't a weak opponent. With South Suppression Marquis, he would not be able to deal with the formation master anymore. South Suppression Marquis was no weakling.

Their battle would probably drag on for quite a while.

That was his assumption.

But next, his eyes widened.

Boom!

A deafening explosion erupted as South Suppression Marquis had detonated his body.

A peak Daofuse had detonated his body right after appearing. Even upon sensing that the heavenly king before him had been weakened enough that they would be evenly matched, he had done so unhesitatingly.

He had promised to do this.

And Su Yu had fulfilled his part of the bargain. They were really here.

Since Su Yu had fulfilled the bargain, South Suppression Marquis naturally needed to keep his promise as well.

Boom!

The heavenly king's body started crumbling even as he stared blankly in stupefaction.

Why?

He was weakened enough that there wasn't even a guarantee that he could win in a fight against South Suppression Marquis.

Yet in such a situation, South Suppression Marquis had self-detonated?

Why?

He couldn't understand why.

It wasn't easy for South Suppression Marquis to reach his current level. Why did he detonate himself so unhesitatingly? The heavenly king was not the only one who was stupefied. The rest were stupefied as well. Including Stable Army Marquis and the others.

Hundred Battle King, who was busy resisting the seal, roared with fury after a short pause, "South Suppression Marquis!"

What was going on? Why did South Suppression Marquis detonate himself so soon? Everyone was shocked, but Su Yu wasn't. The moment South Suppression Marquis detonated himself, Su Yu vanished with a flicker before reappearing elsewhere. Then, he sent a palm strike out.

South Suppression Marquis' opponent, who had just lost his body, had just materialized his sea of willpower when Su Yu's palm arrived, crushing it into pieces. Instantly, a large burst of dao power rippled out.

At the same time, a golden page appeared and collected South Suppression Marquis' crumbling sea of willpower.

Su Yu had instructed him to detonate himself, but Su Yu did not intend to get him killed. Su Yu only needed the mission to be completed. And South Suppression Marquis had completed his mission.

That was the second heavenly king to die in that battle. The expression of Dao Yu, who was slightly slower than Su Yu to arrive, changed.

"How ruthless!"

These attackers were incredibly ruthless and decisive. South Suppression Marquis was an expert who had given them trouble for countless years and still survived. Yet someone like that had detonated himself at the very start of the battle.

This was a group of lunatics. Just who were these people? Just what manner of force was capable of amassing such a group? How did they convince these powerful experts to fight in such a suicidal manner?

As for Su Yu, he appeared completely indifferent. He did not react to Hundred Battle King either. With two heavenly kings dead, the seal on Hundred Battle King must have loosened even more. What was that guy waiting for? It was time for him to struggle and keep the remaining four heavenly kings occupied.

Noticing that Hundred Battle King had stopped his struggle, Su Yu roared, "Hundred Battle, resist!"

Hundred Battle King blanked out. Someone was addressing him without calling his title. But at the moment, he did not have the luxury to think too much about it. Yes, that was right! He had to resist!

He had to break free from this seal!

Boom!

An intense rumble rang out as the mountain started shaking with increased intensity. He had to break free and kill all these bastards!

Boom!

That greatly increased the burden on the four heavenly kings who were still fighting Great Zhou King's group.

"Push back!"

"Dao Yu, Blood Devil, kill them quickly!"

"..."

The four roared in fury.

They were being kept busy by Hundred Battle King, and Great Zhou King's group was rather powerful as well. At the moment, the two groups were already evenly matched. The moment Hundred Battle King broke free, things would get really dangerous.

Su Yu looked over and raised his brow.

Soon.

Great Zhou King's group would finish their encirclement soon.

Very good. Everything was progressing as planned.
