"I'll be damned, what do you mean 'a little bit'? I'd say billions," Mo Qian couldn't help but curse.
He was utterly defeated by these two fellows now.
No wonder they had been spectating all this time; they had been hiding their strength.
Upon reaching the King realm, martial artists could already fly in the sky using their true essence.
As they were about to enter the star gate, two centaur-shaped冥神族 (ming shen zu) at the half-step Heavenly Venerate realm blocked their path.
"Get lost!"
Liu Mu Ming glared at the two and coldly shouted.
"Hahaha, how dare you, mere human slaves, tell us, the Ghost Cavalry 冥神族 (ming shen zu), to get lost!"
"Why bother talking to them, just kill them!"
The two Ghost Cavalry 冥神族 (ming shen zu) let out arrogant laughter, looking down at Liu Mu Ming and Bai Ting with disdain.
"Seeking death!"
Seeing this, Bai Ting and Liu Mu Ming attacked simultaneously.
Their strength far surpassed that of ordinary King realm experts, and their combined power was unparalleled. With a single strike, they sent the obstructing Ghost Cavalry 冥神族 (ming shen zu) flying.
The other Ghost Cavalry 冥神族 (ming shen zu), seeing its companion defeated, roared in anger and lunged at the two with its spear.
Liu Mu Ming and Bai Ting moved swiftly, dodging the spear, and then the two joined forces to engage the Ghost Cavalry 冥神族 (ming shen zu) in a fierce battle.
On the Heavenly Ladder, King realm elders from various sects also arrived and engaged these 冥神族 (ming shen zu) creatures in battle.
Nan Yun Ting's body was suffused with lightning.
The results of the Eastern Continent Grand Competition had already displeased him, and now with these fiends disturbing him, he was naturally unhappy.
Therefore, he vented his displeasure on these 冥神族 (ming shen zu), with arcs of electricity engulfing and obliterating low-tier 冥神族 (ming shen zu) demons one by one.
But soon, with the appearance of high-tier 冥神族 (ming shen zu), these prodigies gradually began to feel the strain.
Wan Shu Wen was almost critically injured by a spider 冥神族 (ming shen zu) that had just reached the King tier.
"Damn it, the Thousand Character Art and the Sage Brush are useless against this monster!" Wan Shu Wen's face showed distress.
As eight spider spears lunged at him, Wan Shu Wen narrowly dodged them.
However, his robe was still torn, leaving a bloody gash.
Wan Shu Wen knew he was facing a great crisis and would surely perish if he didn't use his trump card.
Thus, he gritted his teeth and forcefully circulated the "Myriad Character Scripture."
Instantly, an obscure and difficult-to-understand scripture materialized around him.
Ancient characters appeared in the void one by one.
A vast and ancient aura emanated from Wan Shu Wen.
Everyone fighting on the Heavenly Ladder noticed the change in Wan Shu Wen's situation. Their expressions shifted, and they looked at him in surprise.
Even the King realm elders from the sects were shocked.
"True Meaning! This is the aura of True Meaning!"
"How is this possible? Doesn't True Meaning require the cultivation of true essence to be used?"
"How does this kid know True Meaning?!"
They all found it unbelievable.
Only Wan Lu Qing of the Myriad Treasures Chamber of Commerce remained calm. He looked at his son, Wan Shu Wen, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
"This kid has finally resorted to this move."
The "Myriad Character Scripture" was a unique True Meaning martial art of the Myriad Treasures Chamber of Commerce. If Wan Shu Wen hadn't cultivated the "Thousand Character Art" to its extreme, he wouldn't have been able to use this move.
"Myriad Character Scripture - Thousand Word Command!"
A powerful True Meaning fluctuation emanated from Wan Shu Wen's body.
Following this, thousands of ancient golden characters appeared around the spider 冥神族 (ming shen zu).
These characters continuously rotated in mid-air, releasing terrifying power.
Finally, they crushed the spider 冥神族 (ming shen zu) that had just entered the King realm, causing it to dissipate into a mist of blood.
Wan Shu Wen's strength was actually this formidable; he had instantly killed a spider 冥神族 (ming shen zu) that had just reached the King realm!
Everyone thought this inwardly.
Mo Qian, who had just dealt with a low-tier 冥神族 (ming shen zu) using the Zhenyun Fan, also noticed the change in Wan Shu Wen's area.
Mo Qian's eyes flickered as he looked at Wan Shu Wen, and he sighed inwardly.
"If he had used this move in the previous battle, even with my Mo Dragon Totem activated, I might not have been able to withstand it."
He then withdrew his gaze and continued fighting the 冥神族 (ming shen zu) monsters.
Although True Meaning was powerful, forcefully using it without true essence in one's body would inevitably lead to immense pressure.
Therefore, even when used, the expenditure was enormous for Wan Shu Wen.
After unleashing the "Myriad Character Scripture," the spiritual energy of his half-step King realm cultivation was instantly drained.
His entire body felt weak and exhausted.
He sat on the ground, panting, his forehead covered in sweat.
"I'm exhausted. I don't even have the strength to stand up. That's why I hate using this move!"
He muttered with a troubled expression.
People from the Myriad Treasures Chamber of Commerce also rushed to his side, protecting him from attacks by the 冥神族 (ming shen zu) demons.
As King tier 冥神族 (ming shen zu) creatures began to emerge, the twelve Luo Yue, who were unaffiliated with any sect, were soon in dire straits without the protection of sect elders.
Four Ghost 冥神族 (ming shen zu) at the peak of the King realm surrounded the twelve Luo Yue, and a large amount of hair entwined towards the twelve Luo Yue's puppets.
They easily tore the puppets apart.
The puppets from the Puppet Gate were forged from black iron, possessing astonishing defense and far exceeding the hardness of ordinary puppets.
But against the King tier Ghost 冥神族 (ming shen zu), they still couldn't resist.
The blood-red, sharp claws of a Ghost 冥神族 (ming shen zu) directly severed one of the twelve Luo Yue's arms.
White bandages scattered, and the armless twelve Luo Yue was sent flying, crashing heavily onto the ground.
Her silvery hair was disheveled, falling onto her face.
But strangely, the twelve Luo Yue stood up as if nothing had happened.
Her expression was indifferent, as if she felt no pain.
Her right arm had been severed, yet she didn't seem to care, and not a single drop of blood flowed.
This made her look like a monster.
The others present were greatly alarmed.
However, being busy fighting the 冥神族 (ming shen zu) demons, they had no time to pay attention to her.
The four Ghost 冥神族 (ming shen zu) were about to attack the twelve Luo Yue again.
Suddenly, a gust of wind swept through.
A ghostly black shadow appeared in front of them.
The next second, all four peak King realm Ghost 冥神族 (ming shen zu) had their chests pierced, their bodies exploding.
Only when the black shadow stopped did people truly see the appearance of the newcomer.
It was a gaunt, white-haired man.
The white-haired man wore a black mask, his features hidden. His eyes were hollow, like those of a corpse.
His body was also wrapped in white bandages, and he was extremely thin, resembling a skeleton, giving off a strange and sinister aura.
"Who... are you?"
A King realm expert from a sect frowned and asked.
The white-haired man slowly turned around, his deep black eyes looking at everyone. Intense killing intent erupted, causing everyone to involuntarily retreat several meters.
Everyone present realized that this was another new 冥神族 (ming shen zu) demon. They hastily summoned their spirit artifacts, preparing to fight.
The white-haired man also let out an angry roar and lunged at them.
"Stop quickly!"
Suddenly, the twelve Luo Yue shouted urgently and quickly channeled her spiritual power, transforming it into threads to control the white-haired man's body.
