Chapter 2041: The Fearsome Snow Ghouls

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Xuanyuan Lun was shocked beyond words by the scenes unfolding before his eyes.

Even a God of Creation Stage attack probably wouldn’t possess such a monstrous offensive power!

If only everyone in the Ten-Thousand Spirits Immortal Sect had a bomb like that! In that case, they wouldn’t have to fear anyone in battle!

However, he knew that this was not a realistic prospect. Even though these bombs belonged to his son, they were created by Bai Ling, and countless precious materials had been expended in the process. They couldn’t be mass-produced, and only a thousand had been made.

These bombs were non-renewable resources to be used solely during an emergency, and there were none left following that epic bombardment. They set off a very satisfying round of explosions, but Xuanyuan Lun was still a little sheepish that he had used up the fruits of his son’s hard work in such a short time.

“Sect Leader, those… those bombs were so powerful! Do we have some more? We can kill all of the Snow Ghouls in the distance as well!” an elderly Peak Leader asked with an animated expression.

Xuanyuan Lun’s lips twitched, and he clasped his hands behind his back without giving a reply. If he had more of these bombs, then he would have brought them out already!

The golden ring of energy created by the one thousand missiles had completely surrounded in the Ten-Thousand Spirits Immortal Sect. All Snow Ghouls that encroached upon this ring were all burned to ashes. The frenzied Snow Ghouls seemed to have calmed down. All of them stopped in their tracks and appraised the destructive energy before them with caution.

“We managed to stop those monsters!”

“Long live the sect leader!”

The tens of thousands of disciples were elated that they had escaped that ordeal.

Xuanyuan Lun also heaved a sigh of relief as a smile appeared on his face. He really did think that he was going to die here, but who would have thought that his son’s bombs would be so effective? Not only had they killed over ten million Snow Ghouls, but they had also stopped the remaining Snow Ghouls in their tracks.

“You seem to be quite happy?” an icy voice sounded.

The hair on the back of Xuanyuan Lun’s neck stood on end, and he grasped his antiquated sword tightly before unleashing a sword strike behind him!

Crack!

A massive, golden-furred hand with red claws immediately caught the sword by the blade. Powerful sword intent erupted forth, sending shards of ice flying through the air from the massive hand, but it was unable to inflict any injuries.

Xuanyuan Lun’s expression changed drastically. How was this enemy capable of catching his sword with its bare hand? He focused his gaze to find that his enemy was still a sinister Snow Ghoul, but its fur was golden in color, and it had a blue divine halo above its head.

Before Xuanyuan Lun had a chance to do anything, a burst of severe pain shot through his chest. He discovered that a sharp red claw had already punctured his chest, and an extreme frost power was spreading through his body. His blood, flesh, and consciousness were all being frozen solid as his life force was slowly wiped away.

A cruel grin appeared on the golden Snow Ghoul’s face. “Hehe… Are you still happy now? It must be quite a joyful experience to be able to experience true death and feel your life force slowly ebbing away…”

It pulled its claw out from Xuanyuan Lun’s body, and blood splattered through the air before being frozen into crimson ice crystals. There was already a thin layer of frost covering Xuanyuan Lun’s skin. This frost power was coming from within his body, thereby indicating just how dire a state his body was in.

“Sect Leader!”

“I’m going to kill you!”

The powerful elders were infuriated that their sect leader had been attacked, and they unleashed formidable spell techniques to strike the golden Snow Ghoul.

The golden Snow Ghoul harrumphed coldly and kicked Xuanyuan Lun off the mountain before swatting all of the oncoming attacks aside with a single paw. It was able to keep all of the elders’ attacks at bay on its own.

In its eyes, Xuanyuan Lun was already dead. He had been struck by its paramount heavenly power, which was imbued with the power of laws to freeze all things, and there was no chance that he could survive.

It was also at this moment that two massive holes of frost and ice appeared in the golden ring of energy around the Ten-Thousand Spirits Immortal Sect. Hordes of Snow Ghouls began to surge through those openings.

What was even more disturbing was that there were two more golden Snow Ghouls situated at the center of the holes!

The disciples and elders of the Ten-Thousand Spirits Immortal Sect were in complete despair.

How were they supposed to fight this battle?

The first golden Snow Ghoul stood atop the main peak of the Ten-Thousand Spirits Immortal Sect, and the massive mountain quickly began to freeze. Bright blue chunks of ice spread in a frenzy, sealing the peak entirely in ice and frost.

“Light reigns supreme; all things are inferior!” It spread open its arms, and extreme frost power spread at an alarming rate from its body. It clearly intended to freeze all of the Ten-Thousand Spirits Immortal Sect living beings to death.

Right at this moment, a galaxy of stars suddenly appeared in the heavens above.

Immediately afterward, an energy cannon blast that seemed to be imbued with a limitless galaxy of stars fell from the heavens. It was as if celestial bodies had fallen from the sky before crashing heavily upon the golden Snow Ghoul’s body, and the entire main peak was annihilated by the shockwaves from the explosion.

Everyone was stunned by this spectacular scene.

A gargantuan battleship emerged from the starry sky.

An extremely handsome white-robed man picked up Xuanyuan Lun from the ground and held him in his arms. The white-robed man trembled as he locked his arms tightly around Xuanyuan Lun’s cold, hard body. “Father… I’m so sorry… I-I came too late…”

Xuanyuan Lun looked at the familiar face before his eyes, and he moved his lips with difficulty before shaking his head. “No… You’re not too late… The core of the Myriad Spirit Taichi Formation still hasn’t been broken. The humans of the Kingdom of the Nine States can still be saved…”

Tears welled up in Xuanyuan Cheng’s eyes upon hearing this, and he tightened his arms further around his father’s body, as if he were trying to restore Xuanyuan Lun’s vitality through his own body heat.

The golden Snow Ghoul’s fur was charred black as it leaped out from the cannon blast. It looked up at the battleship in the sky and let loose a ferocious roar, “Who are you?!”

“The Four Nine Immortal Sect.”

A cold voice reverberated throughout heaven and earth.

Bai Ling stood at the forefront of the battleship, and her white dress billowed out around her like a lotus flower.

The elders and disciples of the Ten-Thousand Spirits Immortal Sect were so elated to hear this that they were on the verge of tears.

“It’s the Starfire Battleship!”

“It’s the Four Nine Immortal Sect! They’ve come to save us!”

“Hooray!”

The Four Nine Immortal Sect had never been defeated. They represented the hope of the Kingdom of the Nine States, and even the entire human race! The Four Nine Immortal Sect was always able to give its allies an overwhelming sense of security.

“Sigh… It’s a tragedy that our sect leader…”

Some of the elders were still full of sorrow.

“You really think a trashy battleship can stop us Snow Ghouls?” the golden Snow Ghoul roared, and countless shards of ice appeared behind it, obscuring the entire heavens.

“So this is the Four Nine Immortal Sect? Light told us that you would pose the biggest obstacle to our invasion of the Kingdom of the Nine States. Let me see if that concern is valid!” One of the other golden Snow Ghouls chuckled coldly.

“Kill these people, and victory will be ours!” a golden Snow Ghoul holding a blue skull staff roared as the icy hole around it continued to erode the golden ring of energy.

“Charge…” Countless Snow Ghouls swarmed toward the Ten-Thousand Spirits Immortal Sect through the massive holes of ice and frost.

Over ten million of them had been eradicated by those explosions, but there were still over sixty million of them left. This was a formidable force that could raze any top-tier sect to the ground!

Two Dao Integration Stage True Dragons pounced toward the golden Snow Ghouls.

The Demonic Blood Kirin also appeared and descended upon the Snow Ghouls with devastating heaven crushing might.

“Snow Ghouls, eh? So you are the culprits that ruined our home…” Meng Zhi mused in a faint voice as she looked at the oncoming hordes of ferocious monsters.

“No, the main culprit is the Heavenly Light Goddess or the Purple Star Civilization…” Shangguan Yi sighed as a complex expression appeared on her face. She flew through the air and also threw herself directly at a golden Snow Ghoul.

Bai Ling stood at the forefront of the battleship with her brows slightly furrowed. She wore an extremely solemn expression, and countless streams of information were surging through her eyes.

There were three golden Snow Ghouls with divine halos, and each of them was comparable in power to a Heavenly God. They were similar beings as the Heavenly Ant God in that they were also Heavenly Gods that had been created through some special methods!

The Heavenly Light Goddess was definitely responsible for this.

The Heavenly Light Goddess had probably initially planned to attack from both the north and the south, but she didn’t expect the Heavenly Ant God to die so quickly. However, even with just an offensive force coming from the north, the situation was still very grave.

The eastern front army was engaged in arduous battles of their own, and not many troops could be deployed as reinforcements. As such, the Four Nine Immortal Sect was the only force that stood before the Snow Ghouls. This was going to be a true trial by fire for the Four Nine Immortal Sect!
