Chapter 420: Chaos Breaks Out, Taking Action

As soon as the words fell, the black fog surged, and a withered figure, as skeletal as bones, slowly appeared in the sight of Xuan Kong Zi and the others. Cloaked in black robes, his aged face appeared extremely dry, with sunken eyes that flickered with two flickering ghostly flames, emitting an eerie sensation.

'Hall of Souls' First Tianzun!' Xuan Kong Zi's face turned grim as he gazed at the elderly figure.

The imposing pressure emanating from him was overwhelming. Clearly, he was different from the Deputy Chief and had personally come.

And this Hall of Souls' First Tianzun was a Dou Saint powerhouse!

The withered figure slowly lowered his head. The dry face appeared terrifying when illuminated by the light. The ghostly flames in his eyes flickered, and a hoarse, hair-raising voice quietly resounded, "Xuan Yi, since you dare to show disrespect to the Deputy Chief, I will sever one of your arms."

As he spoke, a seal swiftly formed in his palm.

Sizzle!

As soon as the seal was formed, Xuan Kong Zi and the others felt the space around them ripple. Numerous white figures dashed into their sight. They saw the void around them suddenly transform into countless sharp white bones that shot toward them like lightning.

Evidently, his target was not only Xuan Yi.

Faced with this lightning-fast assault of bone spikes, the expressions of Xuan Kong Zi and the others drastically changed. They were at most peak Dou Venerates, how could they possibly contend against the First Tianzun!

At this critical moment, an ancient voice resounded in the heavens and earth.

"Hmph! Always bullying the weak, the Hall of Souls truly knows no shame!"

Suddenly, a majestic flame appeared before Xuan Kong Zi and the others. With its terrifying temperature, it instantly melted the bone spikes.

The space in the square suddenly twisted, and then, without any warning, hundreds of elderly figures appeared.

"It's the elders of Small Pill Tower!" The arrival of reinforcements delighted Xuan Kong Zi and the others.

'The Small Pill Tower?'

The First Tianzun's gaze shifted towards the group of elderly people that had blocked his attack. After slowly sweeping his gaze over them, he finally paused on four individuals. The auras of these four individuals appeared exceptionally powerful among those seven Elders, especially the linen-clothed expressionless old man standing at the center. He caused First Tianzun to throw a sideways glance.

"Two intermediate-level Half-Saints, one high-level Half-Saint, and one who should have reached the initial two-star Dou Saint stage. The Pill Tower is indeed not simple..."

The First Tianzun's gaze rested on the linen-clothed old man, feeling a sense of wariness. He could sense that his attack had been blocked by this person.

"How dare you, Hall of Souls, to attack our Pill Tower headquarters? Aren't you afraid of being destroyed by our Ancestor?" The First Elder questioned with a cold and indifferent tone as soon as he appeared.

"Hehe, have you forgotten? In Central Plains, it is not allowed for those above five-star Dou Saint to take action," the Deputy Chief of the Hall of Souls sneered. Although this rule had little binding weight, if the Pill Tower truly faced annihilation, the Ancestor of the Pill Tower would definitely take action. However, for now, they were merely teaching the Pill Tower a lesson and didn't need to be concerned.

Unwilling to continue speaking with the First Elder, the Deputy Chief issued a final ultimatum.

"Surrender the items you obtained from our branch, as well as Xiao Ming. Otherwise, Holy Pill City will not be spared today."

Xiao Yi Xian, Qing Lin, and Venerable Tian Huo exchanged glances, and in a flash, they flew towards the outskirts of the Holy Pill City.

...

The Deputy Chief of the Hall of Souls stood in the sky, surrounded by the battlefield of Pill Tower Elders and Hall of Souls' Tianzuns, yet no one attacked him.

As he watched his brought experts being blocked, he remained unfazed.

'I've heard that within the Star Region above Holy Pill City, there is a Three Thousand Burning Flame. Let that Heavenly Flame turn this city into ashes. Bringing it back to the clan would also be a great accomplishment.'

With such thoughts in mind, the Deputy Chief closed his eyes slightly, attempting to sense the location of the Star Region. Although this clone of his was not powerful, being only a nine-star Dou Venerate, it was still capable of unleashing the Three Thousand Burning Flame.

However, in the next moment, his head was directly twisted off by a hand!

"Hehe, you wanted to unleash the Three Thousand Burning Flame? Did you bother to ask me first?" With the Deputy Chief's head in his hand, Xiao Ming's mouth curved into a mocking smile.

"Xiao Ming, you little beast, you're seeking death!" Due to being a clone, the Deputy Chief had not completely lost consciousness. He recognized Xiao Ming and let out an angry shout.

"Tsk, you're not entirely dead yet? Allow me to present you with a magnificent gift." Xiao Ming created a spatial rift in front of him with a sweep of his hand. The opening of the rift appeared to reveal a pit latrine on the other side.

"No need to thank me."

After saying that, Xiao Ming threw the head into the spatial rift.

"Bone Emperor Sundering the Heavens!"

As soon as the spatial rift closed, First Tianzun's chilling low roar erupted behind Xiao Ming. Instantly, the space above his head shook violently, and a massive bone blade with an eerie aura tore through the void.

Whoosh!

Accompanying the swing of the eerie bone blade, a strange wave spread out and swiftly flew towards Xiao Ming like lightning.

'This is... a soul attack.'

Sensing the peculiar wave, Xiao Ming was slightly surprised. He hadn't expected the First Tianzun to possess knowledge of soul attacks. Moreover, wasn't the First Tianzun engaged in battle with the First Elder? Why did he suddenly come to ambush him? Perhaps it was due to the Deputy Chief's shout? However, too bad for him, in a clash of soul power, he was not the one who should be afraid!

"Shatter!"

Xiao Ming clenched his fist tightly, his expression calm as he turned around and launched a plain and straightforward punch. This punch lacked any flashy moves or surges of Dou Qi. However, as he threw the punch, the power of his soul surged from his brow!

Boom!

An invisible gust of soul-infused punch erupted from Xiao Ming's palm and collided with the wave emitted by the bone blade in mid-air. Eventually, both forces annihilated each other.

Witnessing his soul wave being easily shattered by Xiao Ming, the First Tianzun was astonished, but he didn't hesitate in his actions. His figure flashed, appearing beneath the enormous bone blade that was hundreds of meters long. Black fog surged from his palm, forming a massive hand that directly grasped the hilt of the blade. With a cold shout, the bone blade tore through space and instantly arrived above Xiao Ming's head, carrying an extremely terrifying and sharp aura as it fiercely descended.

'That bone blade seems somewhat peculiar. It appears capable of cutting through souls. However, when it comes to a battle of souls, tsk tsk, let me test my Tian Class Soul Skill against you.'
