Chapter 144: The Giant Ice Coffins
As Fan Yuan's head rolled to their feet, his eyes were filled with disbelief, unwillingness, and fear.
At this moment, from where Fan Yuan's neck was, a sudden spurt of blood columns burst forth, dyeing the surrounding snow a bright red.
Chen Xiong, Wang Dafeng, Zhu Wanchen, and other disciples of the Heavenly Dragon Association and the Giant Whale Sect all turned deathly pale, trembling uncontrollably with fear.
Huang Xiaolong didn't even glance at Fan Yuan and walked towards Chen Xiong, Wang Dafeng, and the others.
Chen Xiong's eyes were filled with terror as he repeatedly waved his hands and retreated but didn't have the chance to speak before Huang Xiaolong slashed him with a single stroke of the Shura Blade, cutting from his head down to the middle of his pants, splitting Chen Xiong entirely in half.
Wang Dafeng and Zhu Wanchen screamed in horror, turned, and fled frantically.
However, just as the two managed to fly away, a figure flashed, and Huang Xiaolong blocked their path.
"Huang, Huang Xiaolong, don't kill me," Wang Dafeng's tongue trembled violently, his words unclear: "I promise not to speak about today's events, I beg you not to kill me, don't kill me!" He pleaded repeatedly, with a sobbing tone: "Whatever you want, I'll give it to you, my uncle..."
But before he could finish, like Chen Xiong, he was slashed in half by Huang Xiaolong's Shura Blade.
Watching as Wang Dafeng was once again cleaved in two before his very eyes by Huang Xiaolong, Zhu Wanchen's legs gave way, and he urinated uncontrollably.
A stench filled the air.
With an indifferent expression, Huang Xiaolong reversed the Shura Blade in his hand, drawing a line from Zhu Wanchen's neck, causing him to fall.
Huang Xiaolong turned his gaze, and all around, he saw Heavenly Dragon Association and Giant Whale Sect disciples scattering into the distance, some having fled dozens of miles away.
Huang Xiaolong snorted coldly, wildly activating the Devouring Power of the Demon God Supreme Divine Realm.
With the wild activation of the Devouring Power of the Demon God Supreme Divine Realm, the space currents shrieked sharply, like a tsunami, with a sound that pierced the heavens and the earth. The fleeing disciples of the Heavenly Dragon Association and the Giant Whale Sect felt a sharp pain in their ears, then were pulled back towards Huang Xiaolong by a terrifying suction force.
The disciples of the Heavenly Dragon Association and the Giant Whale Sect were terrified, aghast.
However, no matter how hard they struggled, they couldn't escape the grasp of this terrifying suction force.
Soon, these disciples were sucked to several hundred meters in front of Huang Xiaolong, where all their Essence Blood and Divine Power drained madly, each of them drying up continually.
After more than ten minutes, they all turned into mummies, falling on the snow.
Huang Xiaolong raised his hand and collected all their Space Rings, then used the Shura's Tears, unleashing countless Supreme Fire Divine Powers that descended like a storm from above.
The corpses of Fan Yuan, Chen Xiong, Wang Dafeng, Zhu Wanchen, and hundreds of Heavenly Dragon Association and Giant Whale Sect disciples were all incinerated and dispersed.
Only then did Huang Xiaolong open the collected Space Rings.
To Huang Xiaolong's surprise, the Red Fire Spirit Pearls in the Space Rings of Fan Yuan and others exceeded what he had anticipated, totaling over three thousand.
Adding to the six hundred and twenty-three pearls Huang Xiaolong already had, he now possessed three thousand nine hundred and fifty-one pearls.
At this moment, outside the Ice Soul Ruins.
The Giant Whale Sect Master, Wu Yue, looked grim; in these ten days, the Giant Whale Sect had lost over a thousand disciples!
Ten days!
In the usual Three Sects Inner Disciple Trials, at most, four to five hundred disciples of the Giant Whale Sect would perish, but now, in just ten days, over a thousand have fallen!
Moreover, among these thousand fallen disciples, quite a few possessed ninth and tenth-grade divine status.
"I hope Fan Yuan doesn't disappoint me this time," Wu Yue thought to himself.
If Fan Yuan could secure first place in this Three Sects Inner Disciple Trial, then the loss of more disciples could be compensated.
Just at that moment, suddenly, the Giant Whale Sect Supreme Elder Chen Yihan flew in with a panicked expression towards Wu Yue.
Wu Yue frowned, displeased: "Are there more Giant Whale Sect disciples fallen?"
In these ten days, Chen Yihan had reported to him dozens of times, and each report was about fallen Giant Whale Sect disciples.
Chen Yihan, anxious and uneasy, said, "Sect Master, just now, a Jade Talisman of over two hundred sixty Giant Whale Sect disciples shattered."
"What did you just say? How many?" Wu Yue shouted: "Over two hundred sixty?!"
In the past, the highest number never exceeded one hundred, but this time it's over two hundred sixty!
"Yes, yes," Chen Yihan lowered his head, stammering: "And, and, among them were Wang Dafeng and Fan Yuan."
Wang Dafeng, Fan Yuan!
Wu Yue's mind roared with a tremendous explosion, echoing like rolling Heavenly Thunder.
The surrounding Giant Whale Sect Supreme Elders were also shocked and incredulous.
Wang Dafeng, Fan Yuan, both had fallen!
What on earth happened! Fan Yuan's combat power was comparable to the Heavenly God Fourth-stage Middle, in the Ice Soul Ruins, there was no one who could threaten him, how could he have fallen!
At this moment, Wu Yue suddenly roared in a hoarse voice: "Who, who killed my nephew, who was it!" His entire being surged with furious killing intent.
"Sect Master, could it be Zhao Wuya of the Primordial Image Sect?" A Giant Whale Sect Supreme Elder cautiously suggested.
If there was anyone who could threaten Fan Yuan, it could only be Zhao Wuya of the Primordial Image Sect.
"Zhao Wuya!" Wu Yue's eyes turned cold.
At the same time, Gu Lingwei also received the shocking news of Chen Hao, Zhu Wanchen, and over two hundred Heavenly Dragon Association disciples' deaths.
The Barbarian God Sect members were also rife with various conjectures.
However, outside, no one was aware of the situation inside the Ice Soul Ruins, so no one knew what was really going on.
In the Barbarian God Sect's cave, Chen Hao was talking with a core Heavenly Dragon Association disciple about the Cao Family Young Master's marriage in a few months when suddenly a Heavenly Dragon Association disciple rushed in and reported: "Chairman, there's news from the Windless Mountain Range that Chen Xiong, Young Master, he... has fallen!"
"What did you say?!" Chen Hao stood up abruptly, his brocade robe fluttering without any wind, his eyes shooting out golden light.
"Chen, Chen Xiong, Young, Young Master, he has... fallen!" The Heavenly Dragon Association disciple's face turned pale, answering with a trembling voice.
Chen Hao's figure trembled.
"Brother!" Suddenly, he threw his head back and let out a heart-wrenching cry.
...
Inside the Ice Soul Ruins, after eliminating Chen Xiong, Fan Yuan, Wang Dafeng, and others, Huang Xiaolong arrived at the Great Hall where a batch of Red Fire Spirit Pearls were located.
Upon entering the Great Hall, Huang Xiaolong noticed that the Ice Soul Green Demons who had gathered all around were actually halting outside the hall, only gesturing anxiously with their hands and not daring to step inside as if something inside this hall terrified them.
This situation made Huang Xiaolong feel strange.
However, for Huang Xiaolong, the fact that these Ice Soul Green Demons didn't charge into the Great Hall was a good thing, saving him some trouble.
After entering the Great Hall, Huang Xiaolong sensed the location of the batch of Red Fire Spirit Pearls, then headed toward the back hall.
Entering the back hall, he saw those over one hundred and fifty Red Fire Spirit Pearls piled before a Sacrificial Altar, emitting a dazzling red fiery glow.
Yet, what caught Huang Xiaolong's attention was not the more than one hundred Red Fire Spirit Pearls, but the two enormous ice coffins on the Sacrificial Altar. (To be continued.
