one claiming to be from the Flame Valley is here outside. They say the young master must see them immediately, or else they will face the consequences...”"How did they come here..." Ling'er frowned.Ba...Yun Hao used his spiritual energy to imprint a portion of the formation diagram onto Zhu Pin, while he himself would be responsible for setting up another part of the formation.

At this time, the power of sacrificing the entire Jiangbei City is similar to that of the Blood Fiend Cult's Blood Lady when she sacrificed Beihang County, but there are essential differences.

The Blood Lady's blood sacrifice to the Beichan County was achieved through an array.

And the power of the blood sacrifice to Jiangbei City was not an array, but a powerful kind of evil magic treasure!

Therefore, to stop this blood sacrifice, it has nothing to do with breaking the formation, but can be handled through the current situation using formations.

In other words.

In fact, with Yun Hao and Zhu Pin's individual combat strength, they could only rely on formations to solve the problem.

………

In the center of Jiangbei City, the main square.

Rows of pillars are inserted in the square.

There are thirty-five pillars in total, and each pillar is hung with blood-soaked people.

These people are the captured Wudian Town Demon Guards. Each and every one of them has had their hands and feet severed!

Even though each Town Demon Guard was a powerful cultivator, they were tortured to the point of near death. Their blood and energy had been consumed, leaving them on the brink of utter demise.

A figure wearing a blood-red ghost mask leads a group of guards wearing green ghost masks, standing in the square, waiting for their prey to walk into their trap.

Beneath this blood-red ghost mask, naturally lies the current Emperor Xia of the ancient Xia Kingdom.

Although he had made thorough preparations to ensure that this wouldn't be exposed, he still chose to conceal his identity.

Once Zhang Tao is dealt with, and the mask is thrown on him, consider leaving Jiang Beicheng with some unimportant tasks as a witness. This will help better pour this basin of dirty water onto the head of the Martial Hall!

And by then, he will be the wise Xia Emperor who slays the villain Zhang Tao!

He can hardly wait any longer.

Can't wait to show my skills!

The Bloodthirsty Sky Bead had devoured enough essence blood, bestowing upon him immense power. His current combat strength had reached the peak of the Dharma Form realm.

This is also the limit of the blood-gathering Sky Bead.

As long as people within Jiangbei City haven't all become corpses, there will be a constant supply of qi and blood flowing into his body, enough for him to consume at will!

At this time.

Space rift.

A blade of light slashed out, heading towards the Summer Emperor.

A pair of eyes, blazing with excitement, peeked out from beneath the bloody visage of the ghost mask worn by Xia Huanglu.

Finally, the prey has taken the bait!

He let out a cold snort, raised his hand and with a single grasp, actually seized the domineering blade aura with his palm, crushing it completely!

Next.

An enraged Zhang Tao, brandishing a knife, appeared before the plaza.

Looking at the scene before him, Zhang Tao's chest heaved violently, his eyes burning with an intensity as if flames were about to erupt!

"Tsk tsk, Zhang Tao of the Martial Hall, you've finally arrived. You're a bit later than I expected, and to be honest, you're disappointing. You're so weak, not even strong enough to pique my interest."

The Xia Emperor's eyes were fixed on Zhang Tao, a look of extreme satisfaction gleaming in them.

In the perception of all people in the ancient Xia kingdom, this Xia Emperor was merely a superficial figure.

Even though Zhang Tao had only been the head of the Guangming Hall in Wudian before, his prestige in the hearts of the people was higher than that of him.

Especially after the War Against Demons, Zhang Tao's true strength was revealed, and he was promoted to Deputy Master of the Martial Palace. In terms of prestige, even the esteemed Emperor Xia was far inferior to Zhang Tao!

Today, he could finally hold his head high.

Zhang Tao looked solemn.

The strike he just made wasn't a test, it was a furious blow.

However, it was crushed directly in his hand by this creature wearing a blood-red ghost mask.

This power level has clearly reached the peak of the Dharma Phase realm!

"Such a vicious blood sacrifice ritual, it completely matches some of the demonic skills of the Bloodfire Demon Sect, but you're not from the Bloodfire Demon Sect!" Zhang Tao said.

The Summer Emperor laughed coldly, saying, "How do you know"

"Although the members of the Bloodfire Demon Cult are pests and scourges, one has to admit that the core members of that group all possess an aura that belongs to the strong."

All I can see in you is the smug satisfaction of a petty man who has gotten his way, like some vulgar street thug hiding his delight.

When Xia Huang heard Zhang Tao's evaluation of him, he was instantly furious.

This is his weak point!

Countless people have privately commented on him this way.

This time, he was so eager that he left Daxia Imperial City with the Blood-Gathering Sky Bead and came personally to kill Yun Hao and Zhang Tao. He wanted to prove his power and change people's perception of him.

Even though he now possesses the power to crush Zhang Tao through the Blood-Gathering Orb, Zhang Tao... still evaluates him this way.

"Zhang Tao, you go to die!"

The Summer Emperor roared, his hands suddenly spread wide!

Suddenly, a terrifying blood glow erupted from his palm. In the blink of an eye, his hands seemed to be holding aloft a vast sea of blood!

The Xia Huang spread out his hands, holding aloft this sea of blood, and pressed down heavily in Zhang Tao's direction!

"Boom boom boom!"

A sea of blood, vast and churning, crashed down upon Zhang Tao, crushing a swathe of space.

"Blades of Hellfire!"

Zhang Tao roared, his dharma form bursting forth!

The Dao Mountain Purgatory Aspect, with overwhelming power, meets the surging blood sea head-on.

The domineering blade qi erupted from the Blade Mountain Inferno, exploding outwards in a dense and endless torrent. It tore through the sea of blood, carving gaping wounds across its surface!

The Summer Emperor let out a low growl: “Martial Hall Zhang Tao, you’re nothing but trash. I want to see just how long you can hold on!”

Do you think you're strong

Do you have the air of a strong person

In my eyes, you are now just a dying ant struggling!

Aren't you wanting to save people

Help me!

"Useless trash, I'm now eating you up, crushing these pitiful creatures one by one!"

The Summer Emperor laughed, raised his hand and grabbed,

A demon-suppressing guard, who had been dismembered and hung from a pole, was pulled towards him by his power and had his neck gripped in his palm.

"

Click!"

The Summer Emperor's hand exerted force, snapping the neck of this Demon Suppression Guard with a sickening crunch. A head filled with pain and regret rolled onto the ground.

Then, the Xia Emperor seized another Demon-Subduing Guard and, in front of Zhang Tao,

The Town Demon Guard's body was torn in half!

"Ah!"

Zhang Tao was furious, his grief and anger reaching their peak. He struggled to hold onto the knife mountain amidst the hellfire, enduring the immense pressure of the blood sea threatening to engulf him, while simultaneously wielding his blade in a frenzy, determined to tear apart this ocean of blood and fight his way out, hacking at this despicable bastard.

Looking at Zhang Tao's ferocious face and listening to his furious roar, Xia Huang felt even more exhilarated and excited.

"Haha, Zhang Tao, how are you You can't do anything! Just you, do you have the qualifications to say I don't have the aura of a strong person"

"You say I'm a vulgar, street rat scoundrel You're not worthy!"

The Summer Emperor pressed down with both hands once more.

"

Boom!

"

A sea of blood.

It grew increasingly turbulent, boiling with a force that madly crashed against Zhang Tao's knife mountain purgatory dharma appearance, seeking to shatter it and completely engulf and devour Zhang Tao!

Under the impact of this terrifying power, Zhang Tao's dharma form gradually appeared with a dense network of cracks.

The Summer Emperor, while slaughtering the powerless Demon-Subduing Guards, simultaneously stimulated Zhang Tao's mental fortitude and controlled the blood sea to suppress him.

This kind of torture brought Zhang Tao immense pleasure!

A moment later.

All the demon-slaying guards were slaughtered by him.

Zhang Tao's appearance, too, has reached the brink of shattering.

"Zhang Tao, next it's your turn to die!"

The summer emperor roared, and another wave of blood light shot out from his hand, merging into the vast sea of blood.

"Boom!"

Dao Shan Lianyu Fa Xiang, thoroughly shattered!

The terrifying power backfired, and Zhang Tao instantly bled from his seven orifices!

"I will personally twist your head off!"

The Summer Emperor let out a ferocious laugh, took a step forward, and plunged into the sea of blood.

"Go die!"

Zhang Tao roared, his face covered in blood, his expression ferocious!

A formidable and resolute aura suddenly erupted, and under the impact of this aura, Emperor Xia felt boundless terror.

He never expected that Zhang Tao, after his Dharma phase shattered and suffered severe backlash, would still possess such a terrifying aura of power!

Even though Xia Huang possessed immense power at that time, his mentality was that of a weakling, akin to a street ruffian. He was instantly terrified by Zhang Tao.

Xia Huang was taken aback, his body directly hit by Zhang Tao's blade. He was cut and flew backward, his chest splitting open. By a hair's breadth, his body almost got split in half!

The Summer Emperor's heart was filled with both surprise and anger. In his haste, he once again gathered his strength, controlling the surging sea of blood to suppress Zhang Tao.

Thinking back to what just happened, a surge of heart palpitations washed over him. Xia Huang no longer dared to approach Zhang Tao. While he controlled his flesh and blood regenerating, he madly outputted power.

Zhang Tao used all his strength to erupt, but he could no longer hold on.

His extreme anger, his unwillingness to accept defeat!

This vile creature right before us, in broad daylight, slaughtered thirty-five loyal town demon guards who were dedicated to the Martial Hall!

Just now, that knife... it was so close. It was really just a hair's breadth away.

I could kill this guy!

Unfortunately, he is now powerless. The backlash from the shattered dharma form is too severe. Moreover, that despicable fiend has become even more cautious after suffering a loss!

"Click!"

"Click!"

Zhang Tao's flesh was squeezed and deformed, and his bones inside began to fracture under the immense pressure.

The Summer Emperor, seeing this, once again became spirited. His figure leapt into the air, flying above the vast blood sea. He looked down at Zhang Tao in the blood sea below and laughed madly: "Ant, trash, I am the true strong one, ha ha ha! You want to die, you only have one path—death!"

"Boom!"

The Xia Huang's Blood Gathering Sky Orb within his body burst forth with an overwhelmingly powerful suction force, continuing to absorb the qi and blood of the people from Jiangbei City.

He had vented his anger quite freely.

Zhang Tao has also reached his limit.

The Xia Huang was about to unleash his final attack, crushing Zhang Tao!

As he watched, Xia Huang unleashed his mighty power, about to unleash a killing move.

Suddenly, a drastic change occurred. Everything in Jiangbei City seemed to freeze instantly. Immediately after, the crimson light curtain that covered Jiangbei City shattered into pieces!

"Millions slaughtered, my martial hall's Demonic Guard decimated! They shall be punished!"

A roar of anger echoed.

The next moment, a lifelike dragon measuring hundreds of feet descended from the sky.

Dragon's tail whip!

The furious force struck Xia Huang's face.

His head tilted at an odd angle, his body flying sideways. The blood-red mask that obscured his face exploded along with it! Han thought he had misheard.Chang Ting: "Are you deaf"Chang Han: “He… he couldn’t have, he wasn’t even a first-stage god, how could he possibly instantly kill a second-stage Flowlight race warrior!”Z...
