CHAPTER 451: CHAPTER 445: BREAKOUT_1

"Experts from the Eternal Temple!" Huo Qubing suddenly raised his head, his eyes as sharp as swords, staring directly at the figures within the black clouds, radiating an ultimate killing intent.

Among all the forces, only the Eternal Temple favored chains as weapons.

"Die!" the two Eternal Temple experts bellowed, dense dark Qi clinging to their chains, which transformed into four black dragons. The dragons swooped down, their scales bristling, carrying terrifying Rhymes in Dao, mystical and extraordinary.

As the dragons traversed thousands of li, the Void itself seemed to explode with a deafening roar.

Two sweeping auras enveloped a domain thousands of li wide, exerting enormous pressure on everyone.

Trees and grass bowed low, a picture of utter submission!

All living beings prostrated themselves, filled with terror!

The armies of the Thousand Demon Saint’s Court fell in swathes, unable to move, a pathetic sight.

In the face of this endless pressure, the Great Desert Army soldiers stood ramrod straight behind Huo Qubing, their eyes resolute, pressing ever forward.

"It seems I can’t kill Xiong Lie," Huo Qubing murmured with a light sigh. He brandished his war spear with both hands and leaped up like a flood dragon soaring into the sky, launching an attack on the two Eternal Temple experts in the Void.

Four crimson spear gleams flared, as if four blood-red suns had suddenly appeared between heaven and earth.

RUMBLE! A series of dull thuds echoed as the spear gleams struck the black dragon chains, sending sparks flying in all directions.

Instantly, countless terrifying aftershocks spread out, shattering the sky, tearing open the earth, and making the massive Purple Sky Dao Domain tremble.

"Aaargh..."

Many soldiers from the Thousand Demon Saint’s Court were caught in the aftershocks, suffering innumerable casualties.

The Great Desert Army soldiers also felt immense pressure, their faces flushed as they struggled to hold on.

BOOM!

After a moment of stalemate, the spear energy and the black dragon chains exploded.

The tremendous backlash flung Huo Qubing from the sky. He landed hard on his warhorse, his face pale, his arms trembling slightly.

In contrast, the two Eternal Temple experts merely took two steps back before stabilizing themselves.

This clearly demonstrated the considerable gap in power between Huo Qubing and the two Eternal Temple experts.

"Great Desert Army Soul, empower me!" Huo Qubing declared, taking a deep breath, his eyes blazing with unyielding fighting spirit. The Great Desert Army Soul materialized behind him, forming a vast panorama of mountains and rivers, modeled after the primordial form of the East Border.

Within this Army Soul projection, he led his forces out from the Great Wall, annihilating enemies and conquering new Dao Domains!

Wherever he passed, the Qin Flag fluttered proudly!

As the territory of Qin expanded within the Army Soul projection, Huo Qubing’s strength increased with astonishing speed.

When all the lands within the Army Soul’s panorama of mountains and rivers became Qin territory, Huo Qubing’s cultivation soared to new heights, and he successfully broke through to the Ten-thousand-year Emperor Realm.

"Magnificent mountains and rivers!" Huo Qubing roared, his rage flaring, his hair practically standing on end. He stabbed out with his war spear. Bloody light surged to the heavens, and the unparalleled intent of his Spear Law awed everything into submission.

"The power of the Army Soul in its complete form! Watch out!" one of the Eternal Temple experts warned, a flicker of surprise in his eyes, hidden beneath his black hood. He waved his hands, and two ferocious black dragons materialized, hovering by his side.

"Hmph! I’d like to see just how powerful it is!" the other Eternal Temple expert sneered, his eyes narrowing. Surging dark Qi erupted from him, rapidly spreading to seal off a thousand-li radius of the Void, forming a domain.

"Break!" Huo Qubing roared furiously, his war spear descending into the domain, carrying world-shocking power, and punched a hole straight through it.

His peerless war spear could shatter all things.

The Eternal Temple expert who had attacked was taken aback, utterly horrified. He scrambled to defend himself, forming two illusory black dragons.

BOOM!

Before the black dragons could fully materialize, Huo Qubing’s war spear struck, directly piercing through the defense.

Instantly, the Eternal Temple expert was sent flying, unable to resist. He crashed onto the battlefield and exploded into a mist of blood, only a shadowy soul managing to escape.

"What a terrifying Army Soul!" the remaining Eternal Temple expert, who hadn’t attacked, thought, his face etched with lingering fear.

PANT... PANT...

Huo Qubing hovered in mid-air, gasping heavily, his eyes filled with solemnity.

Although he had just killed one of the Eternal Temple experts, his current state was dire. Harnessing the fully manifested Army Soul was a heavy burden.

Rampant power coursed violently through his meridians and Dantian.

He had a premonition: if he continued fighting, he risked his body exploding within the hour.

"Yah!"

Glancing at the distant Eternal Temple expert, Huo Qubing spurred his warhorse and initiated a charge towards the west. He had to break out now. Otherwise, once the power of his Army Soul dissipated, he would surely die.

The Eternal Temple expert watched with utmost caution. Although he could see Huo Qubing was in a bad state, he didn’t dare to make a move.

He didn’t dare to gamble!

"Beasts, die!" Huo Qubing bellowed. Facing the ordinary Thousand Demon Saint’s Court soldiers, he was like an ancient war god, plowing relentlessly through their ranks. Every strike annihilated hundreds, even thousands, of the otherworldly soldiers, their mangled corpses scattering through the air. Even Emperor Realm Martial Artists who intervened couldn’t escape death.

"Kill!"

Behind Huo Qubing, the Great Desert Army let out earth-shattering battle cries, charging freely, slaughtering vast numbers of enemies and raising endless waves of blood.

All the otherworldly soldiers were engulfed by these bloody waves; even Quasi-Emperor Realm commanders couldn’t stir the slightest ripple within them.

On the blood-soaked battlefield, Evil Qi surged upwards.

Wherever the Great Desert Army passed, corpses lay scattered. In less than half a quarter-hour, they were about to pierce through the Thousand Demon Saint’s Court’s thirty-million-strong army.

Viewed from high above, one would see the Thousand Demon Saint’s Court’s formation being torn apart by a terrifying force.

"Gods, what a fearsome army!"

On the other side, Zheng Guiqiong, having rushed to the summit of Purple Cloud Holy Land, saw the Great Desert Army battling the Thousand Demon Saint’s Court and couldn’t help but draw a sharp breath, a chill running down his spine.

Compared to the intense battle on the ground, the hidden depths of the Void were likewise far from calm.

In the turbulent Void, Guo Jia and Soul Annihilation faced each other across the great river of the Void. Streams of crystal-clear Power of Laws permeated the dark expanse, with killing intent subtly revealed.

"Your strength has improved again," Soul Annihilation remarked casually, his hands clasped behind his back. "Join the Eternal Temple, and I might spare your life!"

"You’ve miscalculated again!" Guo Jia scoffed, pointing to the battlefield below. "Judging by the battlefield, you don’t seem to hold the advantage!"

Soul Annihilation glanced down dismissively. "They’re merely at the end of their rope," he said casually. "You don’t truly believe he can escape alive, do you?"

Hearing this, Guo Jia couldn’t help but reveal a trace of worry.

Does the Eternal Temple have yet another trick up its sleeve?

"Brothers, break through!"

In the midst of the battle, Huo Qubing had already led his forces, fighting across a thousand li, to the rear of the Thousand Demon Saint’s Court’s main army. The continued breakout from the encirclement was now within reach.

"Kill!"

The spirits of the Great Desert Army soldiers soared, and they quickened their pace.

Two minutes later, Huo Qubing broke out of the encirclement and sped off into the vast, boundless west.

Amidst a downpour of blood, the Great Desert Army soldiers, radiating intense Evil Qi, transformed into a million beams of bloody light and receded into the distance under the horrified gazes of the Thousand Demon Saint’s Court soldiers.

"Chase them! Chase them down!" Xiong Lie bellowed, clutching his chest, his voice thick with killing intent.

The order given, the Thousand Demon Saint’s Court soldiers suppressed their fear and began the pursuit.

"Pursue!" Zheng Guiqiong, who had not joined the battle, ordered with a wave of his hand.

Tens of millions of Qionghua Holy Land soldiers swooped down from the mountain, their speed so great they quickly overtook the Thousand Demon Saint’s Court army.

High above in the nine heavens, the Ten-thousand-year Emperor from the Eternal Temple hesitated for a moment before joining the chase.
