“Scoundrels!”
“Insolent! Li Xiaotian, you dare remain so arrogant even now!”
“You are the ignorant one, a mere lowly human, fit to be audacious before us?!”
Upon hearing Li Xiaotian’s words, everyone present changed their expressions, immediately becoming enraged. To be called ignorant to their faces, such strong individuals, was a humiliation!
“What, you’re not convinced? Then come and accept death!”
Li Xiaotian stood on the mountaintop, unreservedly releasing his powerful battle qi. It surged like a vast ocean, sweeping across the desolate land. A terrifying pressure descended instantly.
His black hair flowed like a waterfall, his gaze sharp as cold lightning. Though he stood alone, he possessed an aura capable of devouring the world, his divine presence supreme, looking down upon all.
“Kill!”
These people realized the danger and attacked in unison. Various sacred artifacts rained down from the sky, their terrifying energies instantly filling the entire area. Even before the battle commenced, countless mountains around them collapsed.
Most terrifyingly, several powerful weapons exploded. These were weapons that, upon a single use, could unleash incredibly destructive attacks – their trump cards.
But now, they had been used without hesitation, their sole purpose to annihilate Li Xiaotian in one blow!
In almost an instant, a radius of a thousand miles was engulfed by a terrifying killing intent. The previously scorching flames were extinguished, and countless fissures appeared in the earth. This region became barren, all mountains vanishing.
These were heaven-defying forbidden weapons, specifically forged to kill invincible beings below the high-tier realm. They had been brought into the trial grounds by these individuals, intended for dealing with peerless experts, and were now unleashed immediately, demonstrating their resolve to kill Li Xiaotian.
Anyone else, even a newly breakthrough high-tier expert, would have suffered a great loss at this moment. Weaker individuals would likely have perished on the spot, unable to evade the attacks of these forbidden weapons; they were simply too fast.
However, they had encountered Li Xiaotian, an anomaly possessing the Great Dao of Devouring. In a mere instant, devouring black holes formed around Li Xiaotian’s body, like dragons drawing water, consuming the surrounding destructive energy.
Simultaneously, his gaze was like electricity, his heart filled with killing intent as he scanned their faces.
“He… he’s not dead? This is impossible!” The crowd exclaimed in shock. Seeing Li Xiaotian completely unharmed, their hearts sank, and a sense of fear arose.
“It’s that special Dao power, it devoured the energy from our attacks! Damn it!”
“Who among those participating in this trial is ordinary? He likely only has this one trick,” the middle-aged woman said coldly.
“Everyone, united, kill him!”
Boom!
Li Xiaotian struck first, his speed reaching an extreme. He transformed into a streak of golden light, carrying a torrent of blood qi, and charged forward.
His attack was simple and direct. A single ordinary punch unleashed pressure that swept across three thousand miles. Gale-force winds swept the land, and mountains a thousand miles away were uprooted.
*Pfft*
The person at the forefront had their body split open, then disintegrated. Along with their weapon, they exploded into a mist of blood, pierced by the golden fist.
Rumble!
With every movement of Li Xiaotian’s hands and feet, sounds like mountains collapsing and seas churning echoed. Golden blood qi surged, and he, like a war god, was peerless. He continuously threw punches!
He had allowed these people to gain the first strike; how could he possibly give them a second chance at a combined attack now?
Blood mist filled the air. In the blink of an eye, three figures were shattered by Li Xiaotian, and even their sacred weapons were pulverized, turning into nothingness.
“This… how is this possible?! He… destroyed sacred artifacts with his bare hands!” Some were terrified, their souls trembling.
Even so, these individuals attacked in succession, unleashing their full power. Although Li Xiaotian was strong, they believed they were not weak, and with so many people joining forces, they could wear Li Xiaotian down.
Various terrifying attacks descended. Everyone attacked with all their might, and the surrounding area was covered by heart-pounding power.
Ten thousand miles away, the two phoenixes Li Xiaotian had encountered earlier watched this scene in horror. A sense of relief suddenly washed over them.
They saw Li Xiaotian being besieged, yet he was still slaughtering his way through. The thought of how they had wanted to fight this human just days ago, but had held back due to concerns about accidentally harming their offspring, made them shiver.
Now, it seemed their decision back then was the right one!
At this moment, Li Xiaotian’s battle qi surged like the heavens, his entire body radiating a brilliance that obscured the sun, moon, and stars. He descended like a god, swatting at the high heavens, sending a half-divine artifact flying. Cracks appeared on its surface!
Half-divine artifacts were even more powerful and durable than sacred weapons, and were weapons used by high-tier experts.
“Who… who exactly have we provoked!?” Some were petrified with fear, regretting their decision for the first time. This person was too terrifying.
“He’s just a human, why is he so terrifying?”
“This defies reason!”
Many exclaimed in their hearts, some beginning to fear. The strength Li Xiaotian displayed at this moment was enough to drive them to despair.
*Pfft*
Li Xiaotian’s palm slashed through, and the lower half of an enemy’s body instantly turned into a mass of blood mist, completely shattered. With a shrill scream, the upper half of the body flew backward, disheveled, his face filled with terror.
However, Li Xiaotian’s killing intent surged. The devouring power consumed everything from his neck downwards, turning it into bloody mud. Only a head flew out at an angle.
“Save me!” The person, terrified, begged for help.
At this moment, the middle-aged woman’s hairs stood on end. She caught the head, her face pale. This was truly a god of slaughter, someone who had provoked a demon king not to be trifled with.
Li Xiaotian slaughtered in all directions, his killing intent surging. He possessed an aura that could swallow the world. Opening his mouth, he let out a clear whistle, and several powerful figures in front of him shattered one after another. Blood mist scattered, and mountain peaks a thousand miles away turned into dust!
A single whistle, and mountains and rivers collapsed!
