Silence!

Absolute silence!

Other than the immense uproar created by the giant Earth Devil, there was no other sound to be heard amongst the rocky walls. Finally, in a flash of light, the Earth Devil crawled out of the region illuminated by golden light and into the dark area in which Wang Chong stood.

Roooar!

With a thunderous roar, the Earth Devil suddenly stood up straight on the rock wall. As it straightened its body of nearly one hundred meters, it pulled back its two thick right arms to build up strength. Its eyes locked onto the ant-like Wang Chong in the darkness, and then it mightily punched.

Boom!

Its fists moved as quickly as lightning bolts and with astonishing power. The strength within these fists far surpassed that of a peak Great General, and even Wang Chong would find it hard to block them.

Buzz!

An explosive shockwave instantly swept through the surrounding several hundred feet. The massive fists blotted out all light as they hurtled toward Wang Chong, but he appeared unafraid.

Four hundred feet, three hundred feet, two hundred feet! The massive fists were like a mass of dark clouds getting closer and closer. At this moment, Wang Chong’s eyes narrowed and he roared, “Now! Strike!”

His cry resounded through the abyss.

In response to this signal, furious bellows came from the surroundings and the hundreds of hidden martial artists attacked in unison.

For a moment, time seemed to stop…

Rumble!

The world moved in slow-motion as a massive formation fifty-some meters in diameter appeared on the Earth Devil’s body and explosively expanded.

The Cavern Formation!

This was a large-scale formation that Wang Chong had learned from the Formation Elder. It required ten-some people to work together to pour a variety of conflicting energies into the formation so that it would explode.

The Formation Elder was a solitary soul, so he had never had a chance to use it. But here, Wang Chong had more than enough martial artists at his command.

Not only that, while laying down the formation, Wang Chong had also skimmed through the Formation Divine Treatise, which contained an older version of the Cavern Formation, a stronger version. Wang Chong had used this knowledge to adjust the formation and make its explosive power even stronger.

Kaboom! Everyone watched in anticipation as the rock wall for fifty meters around the Earth Devil’s feet collapsed, but this was only the beginning.

Boom! Boom! Boom! One layer of rock after another crumbled and exploded, and the Earth Devil was made bereft of any place to stand for several hundred feet around him. Tens of thousands of tons of stone joined the Earth Devil in tumbling down the steep walls.

Before arriving at this region, they had decided to work together to loosen the rock walls. Now that peerless experts like the Black Yin Ancestor, the Lone Silence Ancestor, and Song Yuanyi were working together with hundreds of martial artists, the explosion they created was so powerful that even Subtle realm experts would be heavily injured.

Wang Chong was within range of the explosion and was caught in the blast, but he had naturally made his preparations.

Thwish!

As the region exploded, Wang Chong’s right hand, covered in a silk glove, was already gripping a thin silver-white thread. When the Cavern Formation exploded, Wang Chong shot forward along the spider thread to the wall on the other side.

All that was left behind him was the furious Earth Devil whose only instinct was to kill. But for the first time, fear could be heard within its roars. While it might have lost its intelligence, it still had the same fear of death.

Awooo! Sensing the shockwave behind him, Wang Chong didn’t even need to turn his head to know that the Earth Devil’s massive body was plummeting into the darkness.

“Success!”

Wang Chong was delighted. Everything had gone according to plan. The teamwork of all the martial artists had caused even the powerful Earth Devil to fall.

“Good!”

The hidden martial artists in the surroundings cheered. Many of their fellows had died to the Earth Devil, but this enormous threat had finally been vanquished.

“Not good! Look!”

Just when they were about to celebrate, someone cried out in alarm, and all the cheering immediately died away.

Wang Chong had already flown away along the spider thread, but upon hearing the cry of alarm, he immediately looked down.

The Earth Devil who was being dragged down into the abyss by the enormous pull should have been rapidly falling, but for some reason, it had suddenly begun to slow down.

“Not good!”

Wang Chong’s pupils constricted and he immediately peered into the darkness. Several hundred meters below, the rapidly falling Earth Devil had begun to transform.

Its two thick left arms were withering away while its two right arms were growing longer and longer. In the space of a second, they had already doubled in length.

Rumble! Wang Chong looked over just in time to see the Earth Devil thrust the sharp claws of its two right hands into the rock wall.

“How could this be?!”

Wang Chong, Song Yuanyi, the Black Yin Ancestor, the Lone Silence Ancestor, the Myriad Ghost Ancestor… all the martial artists paled at this sight.

None of them had expected the Earth Devil to possess this kind of ability. It was able to use its strengths to make up for its shortcomings, allowing it to lengthen its arms.

Kacrack! The sound of the Earth Devil’s claws plunging into the rock made everyone shiver, as if those claws had plunged into their hearts rather than the rock. The immense impact caused countless rocks to cascade downward, and the Earth Devil itself gouged out two scars several dozen meters deep and seven to eight meters wide in the rock.

But this was not even the most shocking thing. As the Earth Devil’s carrier was the Yellow Scarf Warrior, who possessed formidable Earth Element abilities, the moment the Earth Devil plunged its claws into the rock, the surrounding rock came to life, madly surging toward the two arms as if it wanted to become one with the Earth Devil’s massive body.

“Not good! If it succeeds, all our work will have been for nothing!”

Wang Chong paled as he sensed the Earth Devil decelerating, and with no time to think, he cast aside the spider thread and descended toward the monster.

“Master!

“Alliance Lord Song!

“Black Yin Ancestor!”

Wang Chong called out three times in succession.

“Hurry! If it succeeds, all of us will die!”

Standing on an outcrop, Righteous Alliance Lord Song Yuanyi saw what was happening and grimaced.

Song Yuanyi immediately rushed down, with Xie Guangting, Sikong Yuanjia, Ouyang Changheng, and the others following a split-second later from their own hiding places.

“I can’t believe it! This beast is truly stubborn!”

The Black Yin Ancestor was fuming. Everything was going so smoothly! Who could have imagined that they were about to be defeated so close to victory?

Boom! With a thunderous roar and an explosion of black smoke, the Black Yin Ancestor transformed into a black dragon several dozen meters in length and flew down from the rock wall toward the Earth Devil.

At almost the same time, the Myriad Ghost Ancestor and Bone Devil Ancestor used their own transformations, one vanishing into a vast army of tens of thousands of ghost generals and soldiers, and the other turning into a massive bone devil.

Bang!

Wang Chong suddenly turned in the air, tightly gripping the Origin Immortal Sword as he pushed the Art of God and Demon Obliteration to its limit and swung at one of the Earth Devil’s massive arms. A moment later, there was a thunderous boom. Wang Chong’s Sword Qi had cut off one of the Earth Devil’s burly arms!

Such was the power in this strike that even the Earth Devil was caught off guard. Enraged and alarmed by the sudden loss of an arm, it furiously roared at the ant-like Wang Chong.

Awooo!

A powerful sound wave hurtled toward Wang Chong, accompanied by the pitch-black petrification Stellar Energy.

Wang Chong’s mind shivered upon seeing this pitch-black wave of energy, and his dantian immediately erupted. As his own Stellar Energy erupted to protect him, the vast wave from the Earth Devil arrived.

The Yellow Scarf Warrior had not reached the Subtle realm in his life, but the same could not be said for the Earth Devil. It had the powers of the Goat, Deer, and Tiger Immortals, and it had also been gifted destructive energy from True Lord Yellow Dragon.

The black Stellar Energy was practically solid, and it continuously ground away at Wang Chong’s Stellar Energy. This power that transcended the energy of the Subtle realm was constantly charging at and repulsing his Stellar Energy, doing its utmost to petrify him.

Whoosh!

Countless slabs of black stone showered down from the point of conflict, but these slabs were as thin as paper. The level of petrification was clearly reduced compared to other martial artists.
