Chapter 401: Chapter 4071 Think I Can Counter Kill!
(Second More)
Upon hearing the name Sky Crying Great Saint, Yang Zhen instantly perked up and hastily merged into the crowd.
Another great saint, such a monumental figure that even if all the people present joined forces, it wouldn’t be enough to face him. Even if it was enough, it would still be a considerable challenge.
Though Yang Zhen made a call to arms with righteous words, deep down he didn’t really expect the Sha Clan members to rush forward to confront the saint.
The Sha Clan practitioners awakening before him were all at the Tribulation Crossing Period or below. Even the Sha Clan Elder, whose depth Yang Zhen couldn’t discern, had only crossed the heavenly tribulation a dozen or so times. Compared to a great saint, there was a stark difference between them.
Just as Yang Zhen crept up to the girl, planning to tell the girl and the others to run away quickly, he heard an agonizing roar. A dark figure shot forward towards Sky Crying Great Saint.
Yang Zhen was startled and quickly turned around to look. His eyes widened in shock, “Damn…he really rushed forward!”
The Devious Cat and the Sao Rooster ran even faster than Yang Zhen, and they had already rushed behind the girl. Seeing this, they were also taken aback, looking at each other in disbelief, “Damn, who gave this old man the courage to charge just like that?”
A surge of murderous aura erupted from the Sha Elder. His fist materialized into a fierce tiger, roaring into the sky, carrying the power of thunder, as he charged at the Sky Crying Great Saint.
“Sky Crying Great Saint, he is such a ruthlessly mad character. The Sha people, on my command, must stop him from stealing the spirit melody of our Sha clan. We cannot let the painstaking efforts of the saintess for millions of years
be destroyed in one fell swoop,”
The Sha Elder roared angrily, sounding like he was reaching the end of his strength. It seemed that he harbored a deep hatred towards Sky Crying Great Saint. The fluctuations from the Elder caused trepidation amongst everyone present.
Even Old Ghost Hei was taken aback. He and Shang Yao exchanged glances. “I didn’t expect the Elder of the Sha Clan to possess such a terrifying level of
cultivation.”
Shang Yao nodded in agreement, expressing his shock as well, “I am no match for him. Worthy of the Shanggeng Ancient Clan indeed, such mastery of the primal forces of nature.”
“But what I can’t figure out is, how can this Sha Elder, a mere practitioner in the Tribulation Crossing Period, be so impulsive as to lead the Sha Clan people to oppose a Great Saint?”
“Yeah, this… isn’t this suicide?”
In the Ice Palace Cluster, a fearsome figure emitting a dark aura roared, shaking the heavens. His furious roars, like rampant gusts of wind, spread rapidly in all directions in an terrifying display.
Shang Yao did not answer Old Ghost Hei’s question. His eyes were tightly focused on Sky Crying Great Saint and the Sha Elder, and he solemnly said, “Being able to witness the power of a Great Saint is our destiny. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us. Everyone, watch carefully!”
All present became attentively observant, watching the unfolding spectacle without even blinking.
The world altered color as the terrifying power emitted by Sky Crying Great Saint and the murderous aura of True Essence gushed out by the Sha Elder enveloped the surrounding area, like a raging storm.
Upon hearing the Elder’s words, all the members of the Sha Clan reacted, roaring and leaping into action. Their eyes all turned red as if Sky Crying Great Saint had once desecrated the Sha Clan’s ancestral tomb and slept atop their ancestors’ bones.
“It’s Sky Crying Great Saint, this utterly unscrupulous individual, who not only drove our Sha Clan to the brink of extinction, but he also intends to plunder the spirit melody that the saintess painstakingly left behind for our clan. Such behavior is worthy of divine punishment!”
“After all these millennia, this scoundrel has reappeared, truly a curse upon our Sha Clan. Since the heavens didn’t take him, we Sha people will execute the deed, even if it cost us all our lives, we cannot let this scoundrel steal the spirit melody of our clan.”
“Yes, even if we must detonate our clan’s spirit melody and perish together with this world and this bastard, we cannot let him get his way!”
All the Sha people were incensed, generating a surge of righteous aura as they rushed toward the Ice Palace Cluster.
A foreboding wave of murderous aura blotted out the sky, explosively converging into a bizarrely shaped, ferocious beast in midair.
This beast towered over a hundred feet tall and had three heads shrouded in an aura of evil. Its long limbs stretched thirty to fifty feet, and as it roared in fury, each limb erupted with a wave of manic strength and charged towards Sky
Crying Great Saint.
Boom!
A tremendous force erupted in mid-air, leaving everyone dumbfounded.
Yang Zhen looked on in surprise, fixated on javelin cat and asked, “Oh yo, this move is pretty cool. What is it?”
The Javelin Cat’s eyes also shone brightly, thought for a moment, and said, “This should be the combined attack technique cultivated by the Shanggeng Ancient Tribe. It can harness the power of their tribesmen, converging it to form a massive wave of rampaging energy.”
Yang Zhen paused, clucking in amazement, “That’s indeed impressive. Such a vast power, I’m afraid even a strong man like the Sha Clan Elder couldn’t withstand it.”
“More than just withstand it, if this move landed on the Sha Clan Elder, the Elder, even if he survived, would be half-dead.”
Yang Zhen nodded in agreement, then shook his head, saying, “Even with such a power, it can’t withstand a single slap from the Great Saint. Damn, we better get out of here quickly. This place is too dangerous!”
A wise man does not stand under a collapsing wall!
This was Yang Zhen’s constant reminder to himself. Faced with danger, the first course of action should always be to run. This was the ultimate key to longevity and it should be stressed and highlighted.
Yang Zhen’s words instantly resonated with the Javelin Cat and the Sao chicken. These two fellas had been wanting to leave for quite a while. If not for the Sha Clan Elder’s abrupt charge, they would probably be sitting on a hill ten thousand miles away enjoying the sidelines.
Boom– !
A thunderous bang rang out, causing the entire cave to rumble. Everyone jumped in fright, staring in horror at the source of the explosion.
In front of the Ice Palace Cluster, two violent forces sparked endless waves of energy blanketing in every direction. Everyone’s face turned pale in fright, quickly scattering in all directions, terrified that even the slightest neglect could cost them their lives.
Yang Zhen cursed under his breath, about to drag the little girl away when she suddenly grabbed his hand, stopping him. Seeing Yang Zhen’s puzzled expression she shook her head and said, “It’s not the Great Saint himself!” “Not the Great Saint himself?” Yang Zhen was taken aback but immediately recovered and looked in astonishment towards the Ice Palace Cluster.
Were it truly the Great Saint, his roar alone would have been enough to kill a swath of people.
But now, although the Sha Clan were being battered and beaten, they tenaciously held out.
Clearly, Hua Youyue was right!
With a spark in his eyes, Yang Zhen fixed his gaze defiantly on the Great Black Saint… and the Ice Palace Cluster behind him.
javelin Cat and Sao chicken had been running around for quite a while when they suddenly noticed that Yang Zhen and Hua Youyue were not keeping up. Shocked, they turned around and yelled, “Damn, are you not leaving, boy?! Don’t you value your life!?”
Yang Zhen burst into laughter, loudly planting the Great Missing Sword into the ground. He waved at Javelin Cat and said boldly, “A man should stand for something, so right now, the Sao Saint, having practiced for so many years, is not about to run scared from a Great Saint.”
Everyone turned stunned looking backward and ran while keeping an eye on Yang Zhen, wondering what the hell he was playing at.
If it’s not the time to run, is he planning to stay here and wait for death? Javelin Cat and Sao chicken exchanged glances, dumbstruck, they looked at Yang Zhen and swore, “Can’t you speak normal language?
Yang Zhen flicked his hair, hoisting the Great Missing Sword. Resolutely, he said, “You guys go ahead, Sao Saint will cover for you.”
“Holy shit, are you crazy, lad? Can you really mean that?
Yang Zhen nodded, turned around, and started walking backwards. “Mainly because,” he paused, “the Sao Saint thinks…. we can counterattack!”
