Chapter 1293: Scalp Tingling

No one knew what the Martial Lunatic was feeling, but judging by his numb expression, one could perhaps guess a thing or two: he likely had ten thousand alpacas stampeding through his mind.

The Martial Lunatic remained silent, staring at his opponents.

How did two more living corpses appear? Two human skins swelled up, transforming into human figures. Their emaciated bodies were extremely dangerous, no weaker than Number Nine!

The Martial Lunatic silently turned his head, looking at the two shattered tombs. There, the grave mounds were several meters high, desolate. How had two more people crawled out of there?

Or rather, two human skins!

The Martial Lunatic’s mood soured considerably. Anyone in his position would be on the verge of a breakdown. Number Nine alone was troublesome enough, and now two more had emerged from the graves, both with glowing green eyes, fixated on the Martial Lunatic's thighs.

Number Three and Number Six both bared their teeth, stark white. Compared to Number Nine's teeth, they were equally pristine and sharp. And both of them were smiling at the Martial Lunatic.

The Martial Lunatic felt even more suffocated. His mood was exceedingly foul.

"As expected of Li Hei Shou's sect," he finally managed to utter. "Such a dark style truly runs in the family. The rotten root is right here. The ancients spoke truly!"

It took the Martial Lunatic a long time to string together those few words.

His face grim, he stared chillingly at the three figures.

"Number Three, Number Six, enjoy your meal. I'm going inside to fish for dragon sharks." Number Nine turned and vanished silently.

"Stop right there!"

The Martial Lunatic's hair flew wildly, his aura surging through the sky. This surging, vibrant life force was terrifying and overbearing, threatening to tear apart the Yang Realm.

He was extremely displeased with Number Nine, wishing he could use the Wheel of Time to instantly eliminate him!

The two dried, living-corpse-like beings, their pupils glowing green, stared at the Martial Lunatic, also quite displeased at this moment.

Number Three spoke, "Are you picking on me because I'm old and can't wield a blade anymore, or are you getting carried away?"

Number Six also spoke, "Or do you think I'm subdued just because I'm buried? Let me tell you, in recent years, even coffin lids can't hold me down."

Divine light surged from the Martial Lunatic's eyes. His aura engulfed mountains and rivers, boundless and terrifying. He unleashed a punch that pierced through heaven and earth, striking forward!

One could see the very sky explode. His boundless aura surged upwards, engulfing the starry sky!

This was the Martial Lunatic: unrivaled in his dominance, unparalleled in strength.

However, in that instant, with a bang, Number Three extended a claw directly. He seized the Martial Lunatic's fist, forcibly withstanding that world-shattering punch!

At the same time, Number Six, faster than lightning, had also moved close, aiming straight for the Martial Lunatic's thigh.

The Martial Lunatic wanted to exclaim that he hadn't checked the almanac before leaving home and had stepped in hellhound droppings!

Boom!

Heaven and earth shattered, ghosts wailed and gods howled. The entire area around First Mountain trembled. Myriad symbols of order lit up, imprinted in the void, resonating there.

Meanwhile, endless fist-light tore through the firmament, shaking the entirety of Xiazhou.

For a time, blood rained down torrentially. River after river of blood fell from the sky, and the vast and boundless mountains and rivers of Xiazhou turned crimson.

This terrifying phenomenon shocked the world!

Then, for a moment, heaven and earth plunged into darkness. Nothing could be seen. The sun and moon seemed to have been extinguished, and all the stars in the heavens appeared to have been shaken down.

All living beings in the world were terrified. What exactly had happened?

Not long after, the phenomenon disappeared.

First Mountain trembled violently, as if creation itself was taking place. Finally, its light receded, and the vibrations moved deep into the interior of First Mountain.

No one knew what had happened or what had become of First Mountain.

On the three battlefields in Xiazhou, evolutionaries from all sides were profoundly shocked. Was this the power of the Yang Realm's peerless overlords?

What was the state of First Mountain now? Everyone wanted to know.

However, according to the Four Calamity Sparrow Clan, First Mountain was finished. After all, more than one forbidden zone had made a move, and with the Martial Lunatic arriving later, Number Nine was sure to die.

First Mountain was destined to be breached!

This was the speculation in many people's minds, because creatures from forbidden zones, once they acted, struck with lightning force. They would not act in vain.

Since their descendants had arrived and had openly declared they would purge First Mountain, there shouldn't be much difference in the outcome.

After all, in prehistoric times, creatures from forbidden zones made law with their words. All threats and intimidations were not idly made; they were always followed by action.

People had not forgotten the era when they bathed mountains and rivers in blood. Once an ultimatum was issued, they never failed to appear.

"Heh heh, I presume First Mountain has been breached," Jie Ming laughed heartily, his hair flying, exceedingly arrogant and forceful. He squinted at Chu Feng and said, "The aura earlier swept across heaven and earth, shaking down great stars from beyond the domain. How terrifying! The ancient masters from the forbidden zones are making a move. That so-called Number Nine is either already slaughtered or on the brink of death. It won't be long until you're on your way too, to reunite with your sect!"

This was a blatant threat, a death threat, one might say.

Yun Tuo, the Three-Headed Divine Dragon, Chi Feng, the Divine King of the Nine-Headed Bird Clan, and others, upon hearing this, all revealed expressions of excitement, wishing they could witness Number Nine's slaughter with their own eyes.

Their hearts burned with suppressed anger; they harbored a belly full of resentment.

At this moment, a large group of evolutionaries, filled with hostility, were staring at Chu Feng, wishing they could eliminate him on the spot and settle scores immediately.

"Cao De, are you still going to wait? Haven't you accepted your fate?" Jie Ming was utterly dismissive, mocking Chu Feng. He believed he had witnessed the demise of First Mountain Under Heaven, and that Cao De, as their disciple, was naturally destined for a terrible death!

"You talk too much!" Chu Feng was disgusted. If he were to display all his abilities, he truly wanted to slap this person to death.

"Jie Ming, speak no more. Just wait for the outcome," the kind-faced Jie Wuliang spoke, telling Jie Ming not to say too much, and to wait for the grand scheme to unfold.

Everyone knew this battle was far-reaching and of immense significance!

The Four Calamity Sparrow side fell silent, no longer speaking.

However, a creature from another forbidden zone spoke with hostility towards Chu Feng, using unkind and very unfriendly words.

The servant of the exquisitely beautiful young woman spoke coldly, "It's about time. We can use him as a blood sacrifice. Send him on his way with the old fogeys from First Mountain!"

They intended to slaughter Chu Feng on the spot, giving him no time.

Chu Feng ignored him. Instead, he looked at the young woman with a shimmering red mole between her eyebrows. However, she remained silent and offered no comment.

This attitude was indeed vastly different from that of Jie Wuliang of the Four Calamity Sparrow Clan. Their hostility towards First Mountain was exceptionally intense.

Chu Feng was speechless for a moment. This was all Li's doing, leaving later generations to bear the blame.

"Mistress, I shall go and remove his head myself. He is an eyesore here." The woman's servant, acting as if no one else was present, simply walked over.

He was a Divine King. His aura was like a sea, and he was about to directly suppress and kill Chu Feng.

This was incredibly domineering. He was merely a servant who drove the woman's carriage, yet he was about to lay hands on the successor of First Mountain Under Heaven, causing everyone's expressions to change.

"Who do you think you are? You've been talking for a while, and I still don't know which forbidden zone you're from," Chu Feng spoke indifferently.

"How dare you!" the Divine King responsible for driving the carriage shouted. He extended a large hand, directly covering Chu Feng. He was about to snatch him up, humiliate him, and deliver a killing blow.

Yu Shang Heavenly Venerable made his move. With a gentle flick of his sleeve, the top Divine King immediately coughed up a mouthful of blood with a thud. His body flew horizontally, crashing into a low, cracked mountain.

He let out a muffled groan and coughed up copious amounts of blood.

"How dare you attack me?!" The Divine King was both shocked and enraged, but also somewhat wary. After all, facing a Heavenly Venerable, the gap was too vast.

"Why wouldn't I dare? What gives you the right to act so presumptuously here?" Although Yu Shang Heavenly Venerable appeared ancient and his vitality was severely diminished, his bodily functions were almost completely exhausted.

But he was still a Heavenly Venerable after all, and still alive.

Even creatures emerging from forbidden zones, if their strength was not comparable to Yu Shang's, still had to worry about their own safety.

The scene fell silent. No one had expected that Yu Shang Heavenly Venerable would be so forceful, daring to act publicly.

To some, even if he intended to protect Cao De's safety, he would merely block. Yet he had actually attacked a creature from a forbidden zone.

However, some people then understood. Yu Shang was utterly alone and helpless; his children had met with accidents one after another, and not a single one of his descendants remained alive. His life had been full of suffering, and now his own lifespan was about to run out. What did he have to fear?

For one who isn't afraid of death, forget forbidden zones—what if heaven collapsed and earth rent apart, or the universe shattered? He wouldn't even frown.

"Heh heh..." Suddenly, someone laughed in the distance, but no one was seen, only the voice.

"Interesting. The people from Chaos Abyss have a deep-seated obsession, don't they? It's no wonder. Back then, Li burned down more than half of their forbidden zone with a single fire. How could they not hate him?"

"Well, you can't really blame Li. He was about to become cultivation partners with the Eldest Miss of Chaos Abyss, but then someone had to break up the pair and keep the 'bright pearl' locked away. Could Li really swallow that insult? It's good enough that he didn't storm in and slaughter everyone."

"However, I somewhat suspect whether Chaos Abyss used a honey trap back then, or if your clan's Eldest Miss truly fell for Li. Why he never went back later. But, I heard that he ultimately got ruthless there, secretly ambushing and killing two powerhouses?"

As these words came out, the entire battlefield fell silent, then burst into an uproar. There was actually such a secret?!

While people were shocked, they were also very surprised that Li was so powerful, daring to do anything.

"Shut up, Fat Silkworm!" the exquisitely beautiful woman from Chaos Abyss spoke, her expression somewhat grim.

At this moment, Chu Feng realized that his Fiery Golden Eyes had caught sight of it. It was indeed a silkworm speaking, plump and entirely white, gnawing on a withered leaf on a distant dead tree.

Evidently, this Fat Silkworm had a significant background. If nothing else, it should also be from a forbidden zone. Otherwise, it would never dare to utter such words.

With a boom, the woman from Chaos Abyss struck a palm towards that direction.

With a whoosh, the Fat Silkworm disappeared.

"Oh no, what was that?!" Long Dayu cried out in alarm, feeling an itch on his neck. He brushed it with his hand, immediately jumped up, and shrieked, "Damn it, a maggot!"

He saw a white, fleshy worm. It had moved from his neck to his palm, and he frantically shook his hand.

In the distance, the exquisitely beautiful woman from Chaos Abyss instantly smiled upon hearing his words, and seemed very pleased.

The white, plump silkworm sprayed the strange dragon's face with silk threads, swinging away from him like on a swing. Finally, it transformed into a fair and tender-looking chubby boy, standing in the arena.

"You're the maggot! Your whole family are maggots!" He glared angrily at the strange dragon.

Long Dayu was speechless. He really wanted to say, 'You look like a maggot, damn it!'

"Heh heh, so people from the Forbidden Silkworm Valley are here too," Jie Ming spoke. "Are you here to help First Mountain Under Heaven? But it's too late. That place should be almost completely purged by now, shouldn't it?"

"Shut up! Do you even have a say?" The Fat Silkworm glared.

Jie Wuliang, the kind-faced direct descendant of the Four Calamity Sparrow Clan, spoke lightly, "Although it's unpleasant to hear, First Mountain is indeed on the verge of destruction and will soon become a bleeding wasteland."

The woman from Chaos Abyss spoke calmly, "What expression would Li have if he were to return resurrected and see his sect like this?"

Suddenly, many people felt their scalps tingle. A premonition arose, and they quickly looked up, because blood-red light soared to the heavens from the direction of First Mountain. Terrifyingly, a huge explosion had occurred.

"Heh, it's here," a person from the forbidden zone spoke. "The bloodbath has just begun, and is already about to conclude."

However, in that instant, everyone was stunned, followed by inexplicable shock.

A gigantic one-legged bronze human spear, whose length spanned countless *li*, streaked across the sky, rising from First Mountain and heading towards the far north.

No, it should only be considered half a bronze human spear, because its single leg—along with the rest of its leg—was gone!

People were petrified. Then, they discovered with a shiver that two figures were chasing after it, spitting out bronze lumps continuously in the high sky, expressing endless dissatisfaction.

"Liars! Only one leg, and it's not even flesh!"

"Hurry! Don't let Number Nine and Number Two eat all the 'blood food' that went inside. Quick, go snatch some!"

The two emaciated figures flickered, disappeared from the void, their traces vanishing.

The entire three-way battlefield fell silent. A deathly stillness. No one spoke.

Even the creatures from the forbidden zones were dazed. What was going on?

Wasn't there only Number Nine? How did a creature from a *sequence* appear?!

Everyone froze in place, standing dumbfounded on the battlefield, as if their bodies were fixed. Only their souls trembled.
