Chapter 1357
"Perfectly cooked!"
Looking down at the 'righteously indignant' demons from his high vantage point, Master Xu sneered and muttered to himself.
This is exactly the effect he wanted.
When the lower classes choose to oppose the ruling class, then the 'political situation' is on the verge of collapse.
"Xu Shan, what good will it do you to incite these wicked demons to oppose the Styx Palace?"
"Faced with absolute power, they will ultimately only choose to compromise."
"I have already sent someone to inform Ancestor Styx."
"You son of a bitch, just wait until you're doomed."
The already short-tempered Demon King, upon hearing the chorus of criticism from outside the formation, completely revealed his true colors and roared.
Currently, this is the only way for him to vent his dissatisfaction and anger.
"rest assured!"
"You will definitely die before I do before the Styx Ancestor emerges from seclusion."
As Xu Shan was breaking through the Blood River Formation, he retorted to the other party just as he finished speaking.
The Demon King let out a piercing, maniacal laugh.
"Haha."
"Come, let me see how you break this formation, and how you let me die first."
'boom.'
As soon as he finished speaking, a bolt of purple lightning descended from the sky and struck directly at the Blood River Formation barrier that enveloped Demon King and the others.
"Ok?"
"Impossible."
"How could a mere mortal martial artist like you possibly break this formation by force?"
‘Crack. ’
As soon as King Moro finished speaking, everyone present, as well as the elders and protectors of the Styx Palace within the formation, heard a crisp cracking sound.
Upon hearing the sound, they looked over and saw that the Blood River Array barrier, which the Styx Palace had touted as 'rock solid,' was cracking open like a spider web.
"what?"
This sudden turn of events caused the demons within the formation to feel terrified, and they instinctively turned their gazes toward Xu Shan, who had made the move.
"This, how is this possible?"
"How could the barrier of the Blood River Formation possibly be cleaved?"
"How...how did he do that?"
Faced with the questioning of the elders and protectors around him, even the Demon King had lost all his previous vigor. He stood there, ashen-faced and stunned!
As far as he was concerned, it seemed that he had nowhere to escape.
Opening the formation will only hasten your death.
Sit back and wait for death?
Hopefully, the power of lightning that Xu Shan controls won't be so ferocious in the future.
But looking at the increasingly violent thunderclouds...
‘Gulu. ’
Even the Demon King couldn't help but swallow hard.
Because out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Xu Shan casting a spell with a flick of his finger.
"Qishan!"
"Heavenly Ashes!"
"break!"
'Bang, bang!'
'Clatter.'
As Xu Shan's words became law, dozens more bolts of purple lightning coalesced into a raging dragon, crashing down on the Blood River Formation.
The ear-piercing sound of the barrier shattering suddenly echoed throughout the entire venue.
"what!"
Upon witnessing this scene, the demons near the Styx Palace screamed and scrambled to retreat.
Meanwhile, the Demon King, who was trapped in the formation, and the elders and protectors of the Styx Palace were screaming helplessly.
"Our public has said..."
"This broken formation cannot save your life."
"taste!"
Xu Shan, suspended in mid-air, gave his opponent no chance to catch his breath.
He unleashed the Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Technique once more, directly controlling the purple lightning to completely engulf the Styx Palace elders and protectors within the formation.
"Ow."
"Moro King..."
"Save us."
'boom. ’
Upon hearing this, Xu Shan's face was filled with disdain as he said, "Save you?"
"He is now in a precarious situation himself."
"Return!"
'boom.'
Amidst a deafening clap of thunder, the hundreds of elders and protectors of the Styx Palace were struck down like overripe watermelons by a heavy object.
In full view of everyone, it was shattered!
Even the Demon King, who received special 'care' from Xu Shan, was ultimately forced to sacrifice his physical body by unleashing the [Earth Demon Origin]...
Only a wisp of a soul remained, attempting to escape.
"Xu Shan!"
"Mountains don't move, but water does."
"I will ensure that you never escape the cycle of rebirth."
'bass! ’
Without looking back, King Moro immediately prepared to use the secret passage to escape this dangerous place.
In his view, as long as he finds his ancestor, he will have a chance to rebuild his physique and survive.
As for whether the level of attainment will be greatly reduced?
Being alive is already a blessing.
however……
The moment Xu Shan's figure appeared eerily in front of him.
All of Moro King's fantasies vanished in an instant.
"Energy-sucking gods and demons!"
'Sizzle.'
"what……"
The instant Xu Shan raised his hand, he caught the Demon King, who was now only a wisp of a soul, in his palm with one hand.
The instantaneous release of the Li Fire eroded his very essence, while also removing impurities for Xu Shan's subsequent devouring.
But for him, Moro King, this process was one of utter destruction.
His piercing screams echoed throughout the entire Styx Palace.
'Hiss.'
The followers of the Earth Demon, watching all this from afar, couldn't help but gasp in shock.
At this moment, Xu Shan of the mortal realm was labeled as 'invincible' in their minds.
At the very least, unless the Styx Ancestor personally intervenes...
It would be difficult to suppress him by the Demon Lord alone.
"Xu, Xu Shan!"
"Ancestor Styx will soon know everything that has happened here. You...you'd better stop now. Otherwise..."
"Otherwise what?"
"Otherwise, will you condemn this prince to utter ruin?"
"Since I dared to enter the underground cave alone, do you think I, the Duke, have taken the Styx Ancestor and you Demon Lords seriously?"
“He, the Styx Ancestor, dares to break through the barrier today.”
"I wouldn't mind letting the underground caves return to two cycles of sixty years ago."
'boom.'
Upon hearing Xu Shan's words, the Demon King's head began to buzz.
Two cycles of sixty years ago?
Back then, the Asura King was still in charge of the underground cave.
In other words, once the Styx Ancestor breaks through his cultivation barrier, his strength will inevitably be limited. Once he can no longer suppress the eighteen levels of hell, Xu Shan may release the Asura King and the twenty Zhai Kings.
It turns out, everything was within his calculations.
He anticipated that the Styx Ancestor would be too busy to spare any attention. Moreover, his own strength was enough to overwhelm the Demon Lord, which is why he dared to venture into the underground cave.
"Was all of this part of your plan?"
The Demon King, whose remnant soul was becoming increasingly distorted, immediately inquired.
"The Duke's schemes are far greater than you can imagine."
'bass.'
As soon as he finished speaking, the Demon King was completely engulfed by the opened scarlet eyes.
After being refined by the Seven-Colored True Soul, it was quickly absorbed by the [Twelfth-Grade World-Destroying Black Lotus].
'boom. ’
'Clatter.'
At the very instant he was completely devoured, the soul sculpture belonging to the 'Demon King' standing before the Styx Palace shattered with a bang and then collapsed.
The celestial canopy reappears!
It was exactly the same scene that the demons had seen before.
This indirectly confirms that the shattering of the sky above the previous soul sculptures was not a deliberate cover-up by others, but rather the result of the Styx Palace's attempts to conceal the truth.
