Chapter 551 - 94: Mobbing the Star Crocodile
CHAPTER 551: CHAPTER 94: MOBBING THE STAR CROCODILE
"Outsiders, you, you are shameless!"
Feeling the presence of several forces stronger than his own, the Star Crocodile was so frightened its soul nearly left its body, and in an instant, it turned around and fled in the direction it came from.
In a few flashes, its massive body had disappeared from everyone’s sight.
"Your grandma’s legs, eh? You think you can run after wounding your Grandpa Dragon? Dream on!" The enraged Long Xuhu, upon seeing the Star Crocodile escaping, was immediately hopping mad with rage. In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a green streak of light, chasing after the Star Crocodile.
On this side, Li Qingquan also said anxiously, "Big Brother, let’s hurry and chase!"
"Let’s go, chase and attack! It’s perfect that we need a guide, so let’s have this Star Crocodile lead us the way!" Saying so, Li Qingming soared into the sky, closely following the silhouette of Long Xuhu and giving chase.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Several more brilliant streaks of light shot across the sky, and Li Qingquan and the others quickly followed suit.
Tens of miles ahead, Long Xuhu, hot on the Star Crocodile’s tail, kept cursing non-stop: "Old reptile, you spineless rat! You think you can escape after injuring your Grandpa Dragon? Weren’t you so fierce? Come on, let’s have another three hundred round fight!"
As he spoke, he even summoned the massive Upper Pure Divine Thunder using the Upper Pure Immortal Skill, striking it from time to time.
The fleeing Star Crocodile, regardless of how Long Xuhu provoked, didn’t bother responding. It was the sensation of numbness transmitted by the occasional strikes of Upper Pure Divine Thunder on its back that made it fume with rage, wanting to tear Long Xuhu to pieces.
And closely behind, Li Qingming and others were not to be trifled with either. Yuqing Divine Thunder, Taiqing Divine Thunder, Kui Water Yin Thunder... Almost all kinds of Divine Thunder under the Great Dao, except Chaos Divine Thunder, had taken their turns on the Star Crocodile.
The Star Crocodile was struck so badly outside and tender inside that the True Yuan remaining from the fight with Long Xuhu, which was about eighty percent, had now plummeted to forty or fifty percent.
After a short time, seeing the little temple appear on the horizon, a glimmer of hope flashed in the Star Crocodile’s eyes, and it even sent out an angry wave of Primordial Spirit fluctuation: "Outsiders, once we reach the Holy Temple, none of you will live! I will extract your Divine Souls, cast you into the Nine Nether realm, and burn you for ten thousand years to ease the hatred in my heart!"
"Found it!" Li Qingming glanced at the small temple, then suddenly accelerated and shouted, "Act, kill!"
"Life Plunder!" Long Xuhu let out a roar, utilizing the Forbidden Technique from the Life Law again.
Brilliant green lights burst forth from the pair of Dragon Horns on top of Long Xuhu’s skull, turning into Mysterious Tao Runes, forming into dragons, and directly burrowing into the top of the skull of the Star Crocodile.
"Space Lock!"
Li Qingquan, Yang Jian, and the three Ga She brothers glanced at each other and simultaneously performed Seal Formations, setting up the Locking Void Array.
The Star Crocodile, single-mindedly charging toward the small temple, completely failed to notice this layer of the Locking Void Array, and headlessly crashed into it.
"Bang!"
The powerful shockwave produced by the contact caused the entire Great Formation to tremble violently.
And the Star Crocodile was directly propelled back by the rebounding force of the Great Formation, the body flipping over, exposing its white underbelly.
Just then, even Shakyamuni, always known for his compassion, decided to take severe action and brought his index and ring fingers together, gently sweeping them over his eyes.
"Swoosh!"
Heaven and Earth buzzed ominously, akin to a lake bursting its banks, the heavenly vault collapsing, as two incredibly blinding Divine Lights shot forth from Shakyamuni’s eyes.
In an instant, it was as if two Great Suns rose through the sky, casting down two tangible, streamer-like rays, plunging from the heavens and piercing through the Void, aimed directly under the Star Crocodile’s chin!
Following that, Li Qingming’s attack perfectly exemplified speed, precision, and ruthlessness.
At the moment when Shakyamuni’s Divine Lights struck true under the Star Crocodile’s chin, Li Qingming hurled the Purple Bamboo Spear in his hands, closely following Shakyamuni’s attack, and stabbed forth.
"Clang! Puff! Hiss!"
The first Divine Light left a bloody mark under the Star Crocodile’s chin, the second completely punctured through, and most fatal of all was Li Qingming’s third purple light that passed clear through the neck.
Three sounds echoed, continuous faint glimmers.
A spurt of blood erupted, the Star Crocodile wanted to roar, but its crocodile head and lower half were violently split apart, its dark Scale Armor shattered to bits and turned to dust, offering no protection for its body.
The Star Crocodile, once rampant in the Central Heaven World, now had its soul facing imminent peril as it transformed from its crocodile head into a Primordial Spirit Demon Pill in a vain attempt to escape through the air.
But it could not escape! Li Qingming was already watching it closely, his speed swift as lightning, cutting off its path of retreat.
Li Qingming’s dark Green Taoist Robe fluttering in the wind, casually threw out the Purple Long Spear with a flick of his wrist.
"Bang!"
Finally, with a soft noise, the Star Crocodile’s Primordial Spirit Demon Pill was utterly dissipated.
Li Qingming ended its life with one spear, shattering its Demon Pill and refining its Primordial Spirit completely clean.
It’s a pity the Star Crocodile, having followed the Buddha marauding throughout its life, recently looked down upon Li Qingming and others from high above, but now found itself being ganged up on, soul scattered to the winds, dead without leaving even dregs behind.
After recovering the Locking Void Array, everyone joined Li Qingming’s side.
Li Qingming pointed into the distance towards a small temple about seventy li away, saying, "If I’m not mistaken, that androgynous yin and yang person is inside that temple! Just now, as we encircled and killed the Star Crocodile within an Array, they probably don’t realize that the Star Crocodile is dead. Later, we’ll quietly set up the Locking Void Array around the small temple, then go forth and challenge them. What do you think of this plan?"
"Big Senior Brother, why bother with such complications? Why not just charge in and finish it!" Long Xuhu was somewhat restless, scratching his Dragon Horn.
"Are you dumb? Have you forgotten how we got here? There must be a Void altar inside that temple. If we don’t seal the Void, what if they run away?" Li Qingquan jumped up and fiercely gave Long Xuhu a knock on the head.
"Gah!" Long Xuhu bared his teeth and embarrassingly laughed.
"Alright. Shakyamuni, Ga She, you come with me to set up the Array; Xiao Er, you guys wait outside the temple, and later we’ll all smash the temple together!" Li Qingming instructed everyone and then stealthily proceeded with Shakyamuni and Ga She to three positions around the temple to start setting up the Array.
Since this time they were sealing the Star Sky Altar, the setup of the Locking Void Array was inevitably more troublesome.
A quarter of an hour later, everyone appeared together at the temple’s entrance.
Li Qingming nodded slightly towards the crowd, and in an instant, Spiritual Energy surged from Heaven and Earth.
The seemingly fragile and delicate Qiankun Ruler, wielded by Li Qingming, expanded to encircle several tens of zhang; the life-brimming Green Bamboo, raised by Li Qingquan, transformed into a hundred-zhang grinding disc; Yang Jian’s Ruyi Jingu Bang, became a towering colossal pillar...
One after another, the radiant, resplendently-colored Spiritual Treasures were activated to their limits in a flash, together smashing down upon this pitiful small temple.
