Chapter 6522 Lifehunter Appearance

“Who the fuck are you?! Out of the way!”

The black-armored Cang Lu appeared, blocking the advance of the Nether River Demons. A cluster of bat-winged demons immediately lunged at him.

None of them sensed a threat from this armored figure. Whoever was inside, their aura was not powerful. So, there was no need for their king to personally kill them.

In response, Cang Lu lifted the Bloodfiend Halberd and made a small sweep.

A black ripple spread outward.

Following that, an eerie silence fell as tens of thousands of Nether River Demons crumbled into dust. It was as if a devil’s curse had passed through them.

“He’s—”

Gu Yang and the others were all shocked. They had never imagined that such a terrifying existence lurked beneath the battlefield.

Seeing their expression, Meng Qi immediately explained everything about Cang Lu. Only then did Gu Yang and the others learn that Long Chen had refined such a powerful puppet.

Cang Lu had been hiding in the blood sea, absorbing Bloodfiend Qi all this time.

After all, since becoming a puppet, Cang Lu could no longer cultivate on his own. He could grow only by absorbing Bloodfiend Qi.

The Dark race had always been able to absorb Bloodfiend Qi from the corpses of the nine heaven experts. However, Long Chen had modified Cang Lu’s core runes so the latter could only absorb Bloodfiend Qi from outsider lifeforms.

Countless outsider experts had fallen on this battlefield, and Cang Lu had consumed all of their Bloodfiend Qi. Since this was Cang Lu’s unique cultivation method, other than Meng Qi, no one else had noticed anything off.

With a single swing, Cang Lu had erased tens of thousands of Nether River Demons. Their fearsome reputation meant nothing to him. In front of him, they might as well be ants.

“Dark energy? Who are you?!” the two-headed demon shouted, recognizing this power.

However, Cang Lu ignored him and slowly raised his Bloodfiend Halberd. As it descended, a streak of light tore the void apart like paper, reaching that two-headed demon in an instant.

BOOM!

The two-headed demon met the attack with his flail but was blown away. Furthermore, the streak of light never stopped; it carved straight through the Nether River Demon ranks, crushing them like ants beneath a rolling wheel.

In mere breaths, most of their army was gone.

Yue Zifeng and the others were left speechless. Cang Lu’s attack had been compressed to the extreme, and its power was overwhelmingly destructive. In their minds, they wondered how their boss had refined this fearsome existence into a puppet.

BOOM!

Suddenly, a pair of black wings appeared on Cang Lu’s back, and his form blurred. The next moment, the void in the distance exploded, and the Bloodfiend Halberd forced a figure wielding a razor-thin sword into view.

“Lifehunter race!”

Yue Zifeng’s expression tightened as he recognized the newcomer immediately.

The Dragonblood Legion had a long and bloody history with the Lifehunter race. So, Yue Zifeng was very familiar with their aura, as if they were old friends.

But this time, Yue Zifeng hadn’t sensed the arrival of this expert at all. True, the latter had been far away and on the opposite side of the Earth Cauldron. But to slip past Yue Zifeng’s senses so completely meant his stealth was extraordinary.

Still, he couldn’t hide from Cang Lu.

The assassin instantly unleashed seven different movement arts, shedding the Bloodfiend Halberd’s suppressive force before attacking Cang Lu.

“Fast!”

Gu Yang and the others were shocked. His thin sword blurred, like a sword lotus blooming in full. Then, thirty-six slashes landed in a single breath. This man was faster than any expert they had ever seen.

Cang Lu, on the other hand, was not built for speed. His movements started to falter under the relentless flurry. Suddenly, his black wings unfurled.

Waves of dark qi surged outward and threw the Lifehunter expert away. With a few flashes, that Lifehunter expert vanished.

The next moment, Cang Lu reappeared in front of the two-headed demon who tried to take that chance to get to the Earth Cauldron, sending him flying once again.

“Damn! You’re from the Dark line! How can you help the nine heavens?!” the Nether River Demon roared.

Based on Cang Lu’s aura, he could tell that his opponent should be on their side. But he couldn’t comprehend why such a person would be helping Long Chen.

Having exchanged blows with Cang Lu at such a close range, he should have been able to sense the oddities in Cang Lu’s spiritual fluctuations. But in the end, the two-headed demon was just a demon. Even if he had two heads, they couldn’t boost his already-low intelligence.

On his own, Cang Lu was blocking all the Nether River Demons and caused that Lifehunter expert to not dare to show himself again. Meanwhile, the Dragonblood Legion was butchering the outsider dragon race; their foes were already faltering.

As for Long Wu and Wilde, both of them remained deadlocked. Long Wu had severely underestimated Wilde. Though Wilde’s movements appeared clumsy and devoid of technique, his raw power and frightening defense made him unshakeable. Long Wu couldn’t overpower him.

Suddenly, a pillar of light flew out of the Earth Cauldron, soaring into the heavens.

“Success!” exclaimed the Earth Cauldron.

A resplendent golden crown shone on Long Chen’s head, its light fading slowly.

Then, starlight flooded Long Chen’s body. An astral ripple burst outward just like before, sweeping across the entire heaven region’s battlefield. This starlight seemed to extract the power of heaven and earth before returning in the form of an astral wave.

“Again?!”

“Is Long Chen crazy?!”

“He’s already condensed two essence runes and a crown! Is he trying to condense a new essence rune?!”

“They say he’s a nine star heir. In that case, this has to be an essence rune belonging to the nine star line...”

A powerful astral wave came flying back. Unlike the previous one, this wave drowned heaven and earth.

“Shit, I can’t move!”

Cries erupted. The astral force pinned everyone in place, the pressure so immense that even lifting a finger was a chore.

The next moment, the earth cracked, and the world’s vitality drained away at a terrifying pace.

“Heavens, is the Earth Cauldron extracting the entire world’s vitality?!”

“This astral energy... it contains supreme laws!”

Someone attempted to absorb it—and instantly exploded.

“Hahaha! The grand feast always comes at the end!” the green parrot shouted excitedly atop the Earth Cauldron.

Astral energy poured into its whirlpools and flooded the Earth Cauldron just like before.

Just then, a group of unwelcomed guests appeared within the sea of stars. When people saw who they were, their pupils contracted violently.
