“Kill them!” Li Huowang pasted yellow talismans on his knee as he charged into the group of people. The bloodbath made his robes even redder than usual.
Even though Li Huowang was surrounded by enemies, he still held the upper hand. With his keen sense of hearing, Li Huowang noticed the ground shaking slightly.
He looked back and saw a war chariot pulled by four horses charging towards him. Li Huowang turned his wrist and a rift shot out, cutting the chariot in half.
Suddenly, a dark figure shot out from Li Huowang’s shadow. Using a dagger crafted from black stone, the figure attempted to stab Li Huowang’s waist.
Li Huowang had seen this trick one too many times and had prepared countermeasures to prevent it. He asked Li Sui to grow an eyeball behind his head.
Li Huowang twisted himself to dodge the attack before using his sword to cut the Witch down.
Suddenly, Li Huowang was thrust into complete darkness. Something affected the Dharma Sect surrounding him. An invisible call unified them, and they all jumped towards Li Huowang.
They covered the sky and blotted out the sun above Li Huowang as they raised their weapons high to stab him.
The Witch that was cut in half by Li Huowang refused to die and restrained Li Huowang’s arms using her legs.
Two hooks burst from beneath the ground and stabbed into Li Huowang’s feet to prevent him from running.
They realized Li Huowang was not someone they could fight with their strength, so they laid out traps with their own lives just to kill Li Huowang.
The weapons stabbed Li Huowang without mercy. Li Huowang clenched his fist and howled angrily, his skin and flesh opening up like fish scales. Numerous tentacles holding torture tools burst forth from his body and started decimating the people around him.
Li Huowang twisted his body so hard that he snapped his own spine. His tentacles started spinning, too.
With the torture tools and his three swords, Li Huowang turned into a deadly spinning top as he spun and mowed down everyone.
The sun shone brightly above him by the time the sound of tearing flesh and agonized cries had vanished.
He stomped on one of the corpses with his right foot, barely catching his breath before noticing Lu Xiucai was in danger. Li Huowang ran forward to rescue him.
“Wait. I have a gift for you.”
All six of Xuan Pin’s arms gestured at his own stomach before producing a mirror and giving it to Li Huowang.
The monk’s illusion was confused, picking it up to inspect it under the sun.
“Wait, don’t touch it!” Li Huowang pushed the monk away and checked the mirror in the air and its contents.
He wasn’t sure what it was at first. There were lines, flags, banners, and several blinking red dots.
But Li Huowang soon realized what it was. It was a map of Si Qi.
“This is... A map of Si Qi? Are the red dots the battles occurring right now?” Li Huowang asked, pointing at the red dots in the mirror.
“That’s not all. This artifact I refined has other uses. Try reaching your arm into it.”
Li Huowang hesitantly touched the mirror with one finger.
When he touched one of the red dots, he felt as if he had been transported into the war zone. Screaming and crying could be heard everywhere, with a murderous area permeating the surroundings.
The deep sound of a horn came from afar, making Li Huowang’s skin tingle. Then, the ground began to tremble, and the vibrations grew stronger and stronger.
The cavalry from Qing Qiu charged towards the Dharma Sect, who was carrying a massive statue.
Li Huowang felt his blood boiling. He took a deep breath and retracted his finger before realizing he was back in his original location.
He looked at Xuan Pin and placed his finger on one of the flags. This time, he saw several generals from Qing Qiu discussing in a war tent.
Hearing their discussions, Li Huowang realized they were giving out orders and strategizing. Li Huowang understood how powerful the artifact was.
“How is it?” Xuan Pin asked. “With this, you can understand the situation on the battlefield and locate our forces.”
Xuan Pin’s arm extended from his red robes and patted Li Huowang lightly. “We are allies, so... How about you forgive me for the incident with the Earth Dragon?”
