CHAPTER 956: CHAPTER 947: MASSACRE

"Holy Path Weapon!"

Feng Qing’s heart trembled. The Great Elder had perished, yet the Holy Path Weapon in his hand remained intact.

It lay on the ground at this moment, and without hesitation, she darted forward and grabbed the Holy Path Weapon.

"Crack!"

At the same time, the Holy Bone from the coffin stood up. Around it, an endless aura of Law seemed to be spreading, and its pale bone hand reached for Feng Qing.

At that moment, an invisible force seemed to crush the void there, a formidable breath unmatched in strength, instantly blasting towards Feng Qing.

"Buzz!"

The void shook, and Feng Qing activated the Tao Sacred Weapon in her hand without hesitation, unleashing boundless destructive power.

"Boom!"

Explosions erupted, and the entire secret chamber trembled, as if it could collapse at any moment.

The powerful air currents generated from the collision also swept Feng Qing, Mo Wangchen, and others away.

"Hurry!"

The Heavenly Family’s Great Elder’s face changed dramatically, grabbing Tian Xinzhi and rushing towards the cave exit.

Mo Wangchen and others naturally dared not linger. The Holy Emperor’s Skeleton had been activated, wielding an unrivaled power, even a Demigod would likely struggle to withstand it.

"Save me!"

However, as Mo Wangchen turned to leave, he heard Feng Qing’s voice from behind.

He frowned and looked over. At the front of the secret chamber, a large rock had crashed down, pinning Feng Qing’s leg.

Her delicate jade leg was bleeding profusely, her face pale, seemingly about to faint at any moment.

"Boom!"

Mo Wangchen turned around, his Divine King Body carried immense power, and with a punch, he shattered the giant rock.

"Thanks..."

However, before Feng Qing could express her gratitude, a Qiankun Bag floated in the air, and in the blink of an eye, suction force drew her inside.

"You bastard!"

She gnashed her teeth, filled with hatred for Mo Wangchen at the final moment of being absorbed into the Qiankun Bag.

"With her identity as the Saintess, she should be able to extract quite a few good things from the Flame Phoenix Divine Sect..."

Thinking so, Mo Wangchen no longer hesitated. Divine King Armor appeared around him, and he bolstered his speed to the utmost, sprinting outward.

"Boom!"

Behind him, the cave began to collapse outward. Lucky for them, the Holy Bone did not pursue, yet Mo Wangchen and others dared not hold back their speed at all; otherwise, being buried here would lead to unimaginable consequences.

Running at full speed, they had no idea how much time had passed. Eventually, Mo Wangchen and others encountered many people from various forces, appearing to have escaped from deep within the cave.

"Daoist Fellow Zhou Yan, did you find the Desolate Stone?"

A group of dozens finally met up, fleeing outward while the Heavenly Family’s Great Elder asked one of them.

The elderly man named Zhou Yan was naturally the Great Elder of the Sun and Moon Divine Palace. His hair was somewhat disheveled, resembling someone who had just survived a battle.

"In the depths of the cave, there was a powerful Underworld Soldier. We spent a great deal of effort to finally suppress it and take away the Desolate Essence Stone it was guarding!" Zhou Yan said, recalling the battle with the Underworld Soldier, his face still held a trace of fear.

The Underworld Soldier was incredibly strong. Without numerous Holy Path Weapons at hand, it would’ve been hard to suppress it.

Even so, many had died in the battle, including some powerful figures at the Great Elder Level.

"Desolate Essence Stone?!"

Upon hearing Zhou Yan’s words, the Heavenly Family’s Great Elder was instantly amazed. "That’s an ultra-dense Desolate Stone, merely thumb-sized but possibly containing thousands of jins of Desolate Power. How many did you get?"

"Three in total. We’ll redistribute them after we get out." The Sun and Moon Divine Palace’s Great Elder said, then with curiosity asked, "We seemed to sense a powerful awakening earlier. What happened?"

"We were inside the secret chamber..."

The Heavenly Family’s Great Elder recounted everything that had transpired.

"What?!"

"There was a Holy Emperor’s Skeleton buried here?"

The crowd was shocked, evidently not expecting this. Many appeared regretful, "A pity, if we could take that Holy Bone and refine it into an Ancestor Artifact..."

"Still, it’s crucial to escape. The Holy Bone has been awakened by a Divine Thought from the Netherworld Saint Emperor and is now behind us. Soon, the only hope of suppressing that Holy Bone may rest with this time’s gathered Saint Masters." Someone said.

The crowd nodded, knowing a sacred pursuit was behind them, so they dared not linger for even a moment.

"Hoo!"

Quickly, as everyone escaped the cave, the entire cliff had collapsed beyond recognition, looking at the scene below, many were terrified and sighed with relief.

"Boom!"

Yet unexpectedly, the Holy Bone pursued persistently. It burst forth from the ground, the Dao Pattern on the white bone now shining with an even more dazzling Holy Light.

"Is that the Netherworld Saint Emperor’s skeleton?!" Someone exclaimed in surprise.

"Still not running?"

A Great Elder from the Sacred Land reminded the crowd, and without further word, took the lead in leaving.

Seeing this, the others hesitated no more, hastily ascending into the sky.

"What happened?"

At this moment, numerous individuals were still searching for ancient relics in the ruins, the disturbance from the cliff direction quickly drawing their attention.

"That’s..."

"Oh my, a Holy Emperor’s Skeleton is here!"

Many people’s expressions changed drastically, all sensing the terrifying presence emanating from the Holy Bone.

The Holy Bone emerged from the ground, floating in the sky, its stance as resolute as a resurrected Holy Emperor, having no body yet still exhibiting an unyielding ancient might.

"Ah!"

The Dao Patterns on the white bone suddenly transformed into endless Holy Light, slashing out like blades, catching many off guard, leaving countless people killed instantly.

"Run!"

In an instant, chaos erupted in the crowd, everyone frantically ascending into the sky.

Up there, Great Elder figures from all factions were activating Holy Path Weapons, trying to punch open an escape route.

"Boom!"

The previous battle with the Underworld Soldier had seen many powerful individuals perish, now only eight remained to wield Holy Path Weapons, forcing open a breach. However, compared to the initial entrance, this exit was noticeably smaller.

The crowd rushed, none willing to linger, desperately surging towards the opening above.

"Ah!"

The blades formed from Holy Light slashed again, and those slightly lagging behind were slaughtered en masse, resulting in nearly ten thousand deaths in an instant.

"Phew!"

Eventually, Mo Wangchen passed through the exit and breathed a sigh of relief.

He turned to look back into the ruins, where many still inside were being slashed by the Holy Light that had risen, screams echoed in all directions.

The Holy Bone stood firmly, stepping through the void; it seemed now it had set its sights here, ready to unleash mass slaughter.
