Chapter 41
Chapter 41: Since You’re Here, Just Die!
The long wind howled, and the clouds scattered.
When people saw over a dozen massive airships soaring through the sky, they knew that the real show was about to begin.
This was the signal for the five major sects and the Jade Purity Sect to take the stage.
“What an overwhelming sense of pressure! Is this the foundation of a large sect? These airships look like monsters!”
The young cultivator was horrified, trembling in the presence of these creations, which resembled the might of heaven.
“You underestimate these airships; calling them tools of annihilation wouldn’t be an exaggeration.”
An elder explained, “These airships are both offensive and defensive; not only are they impregnable, but they also come equipped with energy cannons that require massive amounts of spiritual stones to activate. One shot, and even the strongest expert would be turned to ashes!”
“Uh… does that mean the Joyful Union Sect is doomed this time?”
“Absolutely, there’s no doubt about it. Deploying this level of force is overkill!”
…
In less than half a stick of incense, the skies above Red Dust Mountain were filled with flags, and a chilling aura filled the air.
“Zhou Tong, your death is imminent!”
Looking at the boy on the mountain peak, the vice-master of the Jade Purity Sect stood at the bow of the ship, arrogantly proclaiming.
“You old coot, if it weren’t for me showing mercy, you would have been killed by the Chief Enforcer already! Now you not only lack gratitude but also dare to provoke us. You’re truly a wolf-hearted, dog-lunged creature!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of all the leaders turned extremely ugly.
Zhou Tong had casually thrown out their most embarrassing memories; there are things one can tolerate, but not this!
“How can a brash little child know the vastness of the world? We came this time to seek justice for the innocent who died under your hands. Accept your death obediently!”
Before the words finished, the heavenly spiritual energy became violently agitated. Over a dozen warships simultaneously gathered their powers, revealing their ominous dark cannons.
In the blink of an eye, tens of millions of spiritual stones were consumed, and a dazzling light flickered in the cannon muzzles, about to unleash a thunderous strike that would obliterate everything in its path.
Zhou Tong opened his eyes wide; instead of showing fear, his face was filled with excitement, like a child who discovered an interesting toy.
“How silly! Such useful little gadgets, why didn’t I create more in my past life?”
He scratched his head, staring intently at those airships. With just a brief observation, he fully understood their structure.
From his perspective, these airships were incredibly crude; if he forged them himself, he could certainly create far more powerful killing machines.
Unfortunately, he had exhausted too many materials for arranging the formation. If only…
At this thought, Zhou Tong’s eyes lit up. If he dismantled these airships, the material problem would be easily resolved.
“I initially wanted to play with you nicely, but since you’re being so polite, I’ll cut to the main course.”
With a thought, Zhou Tong activated the Profound Heaven Nine Flower Array, instantly expanding to envelop everyone within.
“Profound Heaven Nine Flower, Stars Shift!”
The great formation officially began to operate, effortlessly manipulating space with just a hint of its divine might.
“Buzz…”
Accompanied by waves of distorted space, the dozen airships instantly vanished, relocated by Zhou Tong.
Only the powerful figures of the various sects remained on the spot, looking stunned and clueless about what had just happened.
“My ships? Where are our huge ships?!”
Even the vice-master displayed a ghostly expression, staring intensely at Zhou Tong.
“You little rascal, did you do this?”
“Can you please shut your mouth? Don’t you know how disgusting those two big yellow teeth of yours are? I’ll show you mercy and help you get rid of them!”
Another wave of spatial distortion quietly surged, causing the vice-master’s expression to change drastically.
Before he could react, his two front teeth vanished without a trace.
The only remedy he could muster was a mournful scream.
Now people could finally confirm that it was indeed Zhou Tong causing all the trouble.
“It’s the formation! He has activated a very powerful formation!”
Someone noticed the clue, and chaos began to ensue.
A formation that could influence space had to be at least a level seven formation!
This fact shocked them immensely; it had only been less than two days since the Joyful Union Sect began arranging the formation, and what kind of master could accomplish such a feat in such a short time?
Could it be that there were other great experts supporting the Joyful Union Sect from behind?
With such thoughts, many became increasingly frightened.
“Calm down! Even if there is a formation protecting him, he won’t escape today!”
The vice-master was confident, taking out the Destroyer Staff from his ring.
Seeing this picture, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
This treasure specialized in breaking formations; any formation below level eight could be shattered with a single strike.
“What is that?”
Zhou Tong frowned, not seeing what it was clearly.
“Hand it over!”
With a flick of his hand, the Destroyer Staff was snatched away.
The vice-master’s face turned pale instantly; it was his negligence that he hadn’t dodged!
“You little rascal, quickly return my treasure,” he roared.
“What’s yours is mine, and what’s mine is still mine!”
After examining it for a moment, Zhou Tong revealed a disdainful expression.
“This piece of garbage that even dogs wouldn’t want, I’ll return it to you.”
In the next moment, the Destroyer Staff was back in the vice-master’s hands.
“Hahaha… I didn’t expect you to seek your own death. Say goodbye to your Sect Protection Array!”
The vice-master laughed maniacally as he hurled the Destroyer Staff into the sky.
With a thunderous bang, the Destroyer Staff struck the barrier of the great formation, and then… it exploded.
“Nice fireworks! Any more?”
Zhou Tong’s voice snapped the stunned crowd back to reality. When they saw the half-smile on the boy’s face, they felt a chill run through them.
The opponent had long seen through the function of the Destroyer Staff but still allowed them to act freely, which could only mean one thing: the Joyful Union Sect’s formation was not afraid at all.
This meant it was at least a level eight formation!
“Impossible! Absolutely impossible!”
The vice-master began to doubt his life; the Jade Purity Sect’s Sect Protection Array was only a level eight formation, and once fully activated, he didn’t even have the confidence to retreat unscathed.
“Seems you no longer have any methods left to please me; since that’s the case, it’s time to wrap things up.”
Zhou Tong said nonchalantly, sending chills down everyone’s spines.
“What do you want to do?”
“Those who come from afar, isn’t it a pleasure? Since you’re here, just die!”
As soon as the words fell, Zhou Tong’s aura became incredibly fierce.
“Profound Heaven Nine Flower, Chaos Returns One!”
“Boom!”
The true killing move was activated, as terrifying chaotic energy surged from all directions, obliterating these people entirely!
“That’s a wrap!”
Zhou Tong clapped his hands, looking at the sky without a single drop of blood falling and finally couldn’t help but laugh.
“A bunch of cowards, daring only to send their avatars, what a waste.”
Outside Red Dust Mountain, the true forms of the various sects simultaneously spat blood, their faces filled with horror.
Just now, they had experienced a true death; those avatars were extremely important, and once destroyed, their strength would drop significantly.
“Quick! Call the enforcers! We need the enforcers to seek justice!”
The vice-master shouted frantically, fear blooming in his eyes!
