Duyou Holiness widened his eyes as if he was trying to better understand the scene and the young man before him.

He just couldn’t understand what force could be this terrifying! He felt that the energy in the faction-guarding grand array, the spiritual vein, and the stars were being consumed at a fast rate to fend off this force!

“No! Impossible!” Duyou Holiness roared, “This is an ancient grand array passed down from the prehistoric times… The Ancestral Master told us that it could even trap and kill demi-immortals!”

“Impossible! Absolutely impossible!” he murmured to himself, looking crazy and mad.

Then, he saw something even more terrifying: a crack appeared in the center of the huge Eight-Trigram pattern, which was purely condensed by spiritual essence.

Then, more cracks appeared; two, three, four…

Many cracks appeared, and the entire array was shaking!

The disciples and elders of the other two saint factions, Xuanzhong Manor and Yuxu Mountain, all looked up at the terrifying scene in the distant sky in horror; it looked as if the end of the world had come.

“What is that?!”

“That’s in the direction of Taixi Faction!”

Seeing this scene, extreme horror and shock entered their eyes!

– In the Half City Shop and the Jiuhua City Shop –

The cultivators and warriors who hadn’t played the King of Fighters before stood up in horror. “What… what is that?”

Even Ning Bi stood up. She had only seen the overwhelming power of Orochi in the game; she couldn’t compare it with anything in the real world, thus she couldn’t really feel the power of these moves. However, now she saw the Orochi Divine Light technique being used in the real world.

The stunning sensation was many times stronger than what she got from the game.

Her eyes that were as green as jade stared at the screen while the array was being dismantled. “I decided; I’m going to put more effort into practicing the King of Fighters techniques in the future!”

The Xichi Spiritual Master was also gazing at the big screen without blinking. “Yun’er, do you know what this technique is? Can we learn it in the shop? How come I’ve never seen it before?!”

“It’s because you don’t play the King of Fighters, Master,” Liu Ningyun said earnestly.

“Yun’er, can you show me how to play the King of Fighters?!” The Xichi Spiritual Master asked in excitement, “If I can merge this technique into our Nanhua Heavenly Light…”

She began to dream about the bright future.

“…”

“Hahahaha! Destroyed… All destroyed!” Duyou Holiness watched while the Taixi Faction’s faction-guarding grand array collapsed. Even the mystical yellow jade butterfly which had saved him from the World-Ending Sword 23 shattered into pieces. With hatred in his eyes, his face was wicked like a ghost, and he fell from the sky, covered in blood.

Staring at Fang Qi in the sky with hatred, he said, “My Taixi Faction has done nothing to you; why are you doing this to us?! Aren’t you afraid that you will be punished by Heaven and struck by lightning?”

At least from his perspective, the Taixi Faction had never messed with Fang Qi in public.

“I’m here for the disciples of various factions; you imprisoned and are torturing them,” Fang Qi said solemnly.

“What torture?!” Duyou Holiness roared, “Tian Leizi! Where’s Tian Leizi?!”

He laughed hysterically and said, “You did this because of those lazy wastrels? Today, I’ll bring these wastrels to the tomb with my Taixi Faction!”

“Tian Leizi!”

“Holiness! Save me, Holiness!” At this moment, a figure covered in blood ran over with a terrified expression, chased by hundreds of furious disciples of various factions.

“Old B*stard, don’t run! I’ll let you have a taste of the lightning torture!”

“Old B*stard, I treated my master as my father, and the faction treated me as a son. But after today, my heart will feel cold even if I return to them. You destroyed the affection between my master and me that had been built over the past dozens of years! You villains have no right to live!”

“B*stards!” The round-faced girl who was about 16 years old yelled in tears, “You lied to my dad and made him take me to this place. After the worse-than-death days here, my home and my faction will not be the same to me…”

“No! It’s not me!” Spotting Duyou Holiness, Tian Leizi looked as if he saw his savior. He pointed at Duyou Holiness and said, “It’s him! He ordered me to do it; it’s not my idea! See? He even wants you to die with him!”

“B*stards! Today, I’ll give you a taste of lightning torture!”

“Ahhh!” Before Fang Qi could finish making a move, the two people were swallowed by the furious crowd. While spiritual essence turned into lightning energy and flashed in the crowd, shrill screams could be heard all over the mountain.

…

Meanwhile, the spiritual boats of Linglang Mountain followed the instructions given to them by their ‘superior’ and moved to the designated place. However, they were greeted by a wave of horrifying lightning light.

“This is…”

“The warfare spiritual spells of the Gongshu Family?!”

“Impossible! Has the Gongshu Family entered the war against us?”

“How come… there are arrays around us?!”

“No! We fell into a trap!”

“…”

While alarmed yells and shrill screams sounded, the huge group of spiritual boats received great damage under the attacks of the pre-arranged arrays and the AoE spiritual spells cast by the many warships confiscated from the Gongshu Family!

“Quickly send the message! Tell them that we’ve fallen into a trap!”

However, they received no reply, and all the messages they sent were lost like a mud doll in the ocean. The cultivators of Jade Hill Mountain didn’t set out until the cultivators of Linglang Mountain fled and most of the high-level members were captured.

The big forces soon ventured into the depths of Dajin like headless flies, doing battles separately rather than attacking Dajin together in unison which was the optimal strategy.

…

“Strange… How come Elder Xue still didn’t reply to my message.” Jade Hill Mountain Master wondered with the communication jade in his hand.

At this moment, noises came from outside, and they heard someone yell, “Listen up! You’ve been surrounded! Immediately hand over your spiritual artifacts and surrender to us!”

“What?!” All the people inside looked displeased. “We haven’t received any messages yet… Who’s making fun of us?”

After walking out of the palace, they saw about 10 top-level warships of the Gongshu Family slowly appearing in the vast blue sky above the city.

…

Meanwhile, in the Taixi Faction, the pungent smell of flesh burned by strong lightning permeated the air.

“You’re audacious!” Two powerful auras descended from the sky.

With magnificent presences, a man and a woman at the late stage of the Divine Ocean Realm landed.

The man wore a purple-gold headpiece and a purple Daoist robe with golden patterns; he looked handsome and valiant.

The woman wore a white Daoist robe with jade patterns; she looked elegant and celestial.

They coldly stared at the people before them.

Calmly, Mr. Fang lit up a cigarette and said, “You should ask about what they did to drive these furious disciples to do such a thing.”

He tapped his finger on the cigarette to knock down the ash from the burning end. “Of course, if you want to ignore the cause and avenge them since your three factions move together, I’m here to deal with you at any time.”

Even with high cultivation strengths, the man and the woman felt chilly inside; it was a sensation that was uncontrollable.

Then, remembering the horrifying light shooting down from the sky, they stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do next.

Beep. The task of ‘The Power that Shocks the World’ is completed.
