Chapter 532 Arrival of the Grand Elder
The Seventh Elder was already being overwhelmed by the Underworld Bone Dragon King. Now, facing the Purgatory Corpse King's dragon of corpse energy, he was directly struck down upon contact.
"Puh!"
The Seventh Elder crashed heavily to the ground, his pupils somewhat unfocused.
His aged eyes were filled with a hint of confusion and bewilderment about the world, as well as a touch of naive foolishness.
Logically speaking, as the Seventh Elder of God Mountain, his strength should be among the top ranks on Kaiji Star.
However, recent events had completely exceeded the Seventh Elder's understanding of the world.
First, he and the Eighth Elder joined forces only to be brutally abused by Niu Aihua, then he was swatted around by the Underworld Bone Dragon King, and finally, he was hung up and beaten by the Purgatory Corpse King.
"Is my strength really top-notch on Kaiji Star? Could it be that I'm actually a weakling?"
Even as a Saint-tier powerhouse, the Seventh Elder couldn't help but question himself. After all, none of the enemies he had encountered recently were ones he could defeat.
After dealing with the Seventh Elder, the Purgatory Corpse King turned his head to look at the battle between the three God Guards and Guan Su, Joseph, and the others.
"You dare call yourselves corpses?"
The Purgatory Corpse King looked at Guan Su and the others, his eyes full of disdain.
Guan Su and the others were summoned as undead creatures after death, vastly different from the Purgatory Corpse King, a corpse king who emerged from hell.
"Get out of the way!"
The Purgatory Corpse King roared and charged towards the Third God Guard, Uriel.
Uriel's expression changed upon seeing this. Wielding his Flame Sword, he slashed fiercely at the Purgatory Corpse King!
A magnificent red sword light tore through the sky, demonstrating what a Saint-tier strike was.
However, when this strike landed on the Purgatory Corpse King's dry, magma-like skin, it only produced a crisp clang, failing to cause any damage.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Uriel was stunned by the scene before him. His full-powered strike on the Purgatory Corpse King couldn't even break through his defense?
The Purgatory Corpse King grabbed Uriel by the neck and lifted him into the air.
"Nothing is impossible. If it weren't for the seal in this damned place restricting my power, I could crush someone like you with a single finger in hell!"
Bang!
As soon as he finished speaking, the Purgatory Corpse King smashed Uriel into the ground, creating countless spiderweb-like cracks.
The violent corpse energy shattered Uriel's golden armor, and his entire face contorted.
"Insignificant." The Purgatory Corpse King glanced at Uriel disdainfully. Corpse energy condensed on his fist as he slammed it towards Uriel's head.
If this punch landed, Uriel's head would explode like a ripe watermelon.
Uriel's eyes were filled with terror, and he could even clearly smell the scent of death.
However, the Purgatory Corpse King's fist suddenly stopped in front of Uriel's face, as if an invisible wall of air blocked them.
A hint of human-like doubt appeared on the Purgatory Corpse King's face, but he didn't know why.
Behind him, Shen Jianshu's expression darkened as he looked up at the sky.
In the sky, six gray-robed elders arrived together, led by the calm-looking Grand Elder of God Mountain.
He was the one who had just saved Uriel.
With the arrival of the Grand Elder and the others, Shen Jianshu and Wan Lihao were now facing a full twelve Saint-tiers!
The slightly improved situation instantly fell back into despair!
Shen Jianshu's expression became grave.
Although he had immediately notified Yi Liushui and Fang Biaozhi, the Grand Elder and the others would definitely not be foolish enough to wait for them to arrive.
This battle was truly going to be a desperate struggle!
"Shen Jianshu, long time no see. You've really taught a good student."
The Grand Elder's eyes narrowed, filled with cold light as he stared at Shen Jianshu.
Qiao Yu's ruckus at God Mountain and the Xing family's wedding had certainly made the Western Alliance investigate his underwear color.
The Grand Elder naturally knew about the relationship between Shen Jianshu and Qiao Yu.
"You're talking about Qiao Yu? That kid is still too young. If it were me, I would have blown up God Mountain for you," Shen Jianshu retorted.
"Don't worry, I won't kill you."
The Grand Elder was not angered by Shen Jianshu's words, but said coldly.
"I will capture you alive and tie you to the front of the main hall on the peak of God Mountain. I want to see if that Qiao Yu can still hide and be a coward after seeing you captured."
Shen Jianshu was stunned for a moment, then took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
When Shen Jianshu opened his eyes again, they were filled with a firm determination to die.
Having lived for so long, Shen Jianshu had long since become indifferent to matters of life and death, but he would never allow himself to become a burden to Qiao Yu.
Although Qiao Yu had never formally performed the apprenticeship ceremony, Shen Jianshu had long regarded him as his only disciple.
"Then come and try. If you can capture me alive today, I, Shen Jianshu, will write my name backward."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Underworld Bone Dragon King and the Purgatory Corpse King stood on either side of Shen Jianshu, like two terrifying guardians.
"Do you think your life and death are still under your control?"
A fierce light flashed in the Grand Elder's eyes, and then he attacked.
Apart from Uriel and the Seventh Elder, who were heavily injured, the other ten Saint-tiers attacked Shen Jianshu and Wan Lihao.
Wan Lihao was already seriously injured in the previous battle with Michael and the Ninth Elder. He was struck and coughed up blood as soon as the battle began.
Shen Jianshu manipulated the Underworld Bone Dragon King and the Purgatory Corpse King forward. Facing ten Saint-tiers, the Purgatory Corpse King no longer had his previous ferocity and was directly suppressed, his violent corpse energy forced back into his body.
After all, on Kaiji Star, dragons have to coil and tigers have to crouch. The Purgatory Corpse King could not exert power beyond the Saint-tier here.
The Underworld Bone Dragon King was caught off guard and ambushed by the Grand Elder using spatial collapse, directly breaking a bone wing.
Even these two legendary undead creatures were beaten so badly, let alone Guan Su and the other three, who were all severely injured in a short time.
Having been refined into undead creatures for so long, they could not exert their strongest combat power from when they were alive.
The blood beauty Beidao Fengzi was seized by the First God Guard Michael, who used a Judgment Rune Blade to directly chop her into pieces, completely destroying the body and eliminating the traces.
As soon as they made contact, Shen Jianshu and Wan Lihao's side showed a complete defeat, and being killed was only a matter of time.
"Good fight!"
Hiding behind the Grand Elder and the others to recover from his injuries, the Seventh Elder looked very excited and waved his arm excitedly.
Having been brutally abused in turn, he had been holding back a burst of anger in his heart, and now he finally had a chance to vent it!
Unfortunately, the Grand Elder and the others were all focused on fighting, and Uriel had fainted due to his serious injuries. There was no one to share this joy with the Seventh Elder.
The Seventh Elder's eyes were bright and focused on the burning battlefield in front of him.
He didn't notice that the unconscious Uriel beside him suddenly disappeared.
It was as if an invisible pair of hands in the void had dragged Uriel away...
