Chapter 76: Slaughter

Gu Fan hovered mid-air with an expressionless face.

Even if all ten thousand White Bone Warriors were to fall here, he would not feel any heartache.

At worst, he could simply return to the apocalypse world to replenish them.

But what he was certain of was—everyone here would die!

At this moment, the battle within the valley had already reached a fever pitch.

Countless flashes of various techniques lit up the surroundings.

The White Bone Warriors were also falling in swathes.

In just a few minutes, over a thousand had already perished!

Meanwhile, Lin Yi on the side felt somewhat bored and simply transformed into an assassin.

Dressed in white, he blended into the massive swarm of White Bone Warriors, occasionally thrusting out his sword.

He didn’t aim for a kill; after each strike, he would immediately retreat.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to kill—mainly, this group of people had already gone mad.

Some were fighting with a resolve to die. If he got left behind, everyone would prioritize attacking him.

Lin Yi enjoyed killing, but he wasn’t stupid.

So he kept flashing through the vast crowd of White Bone Warriors—one moment slashing at Wang Qi, the next moment stabbing toward Yu Feihuang.

“Damn it! Lin Yi! Gu Fan! If you’ve got guts, come down and fight. What’s the point of hiding like cowards?!”

Yu Feihuang finally lost his temper and shoved away the White Bone Warrior in front of him.

He was beginning to feel that, at this rate, he might actually die here.

At present, he had already consumed nearly half of his spiritual power. At most, he could last another half an hour!

By then, how many White Bone Warriors would remain?

On the side, Wang Qi also began shouting.

“What Demonic Path Twin Stars! You don’t even have the guts to fight face-to-face. Even if I die here, I won’t yield!”

Gu Fan, on the other hand, burst out laughing.

“Not yield? I, Gu Fan, have always subdued others with virtue. Those who don’t yield—are corpses!”

“Besides, these White Bone Warriors were painstakingly refined by me, naturally they count as my methods!”

As soon as these words fell, everyone was surprised while fending off the attacks.

They had originally assumed these things were some magic treasures left behind by a powerful expert.

But now Gu Fan claimed that he had refined them one by one!

How many people would he have had to kill to refine so many of them?

And all were at the Spirit Sea Realm—calculating it this way, the number of kills must have been over tenfold!

Looking again at Gu Fan, who was brimming with killing aura—

Only now did everyone truly understand what kind of person they had provoked.

Definitely one of the most fearsome figures in this realm!

At this moment, Sun Zhen and Cao Xin, both from the Heavenly Evil Sect, were already beginning to regret.

Regret not having listened to the elder’s warning.

Who could have imagined Gu Fan would be this fierce?

At this point, Sun Zhen was struggling to hold on and already feeling fatigued.

He had no choice but to shout for help:

“Junior Brother Gu Fan, Junior Brother Lin Yi! We’re all disciples of the Heavenly Evil Sect—please let us out!”

Cao Xin had also lost all pride by now, with not a shred of arrogance left.

His face was filled with desperation.

“Yes, we’re fellow disciples. Are you really going to kill us too?”

Gu Fan looked at the two coldly.

“Heh, if you hadn’t spoken, I almost forgot.”

With that, he casually pointed a finger, and instantly a large number of White Bone Warriors lunged at the two!

“You… Gu Fan, what are you doing?!”

“Have the two senior brothers perhaps forgotten what just happened?”

Sun Zhen and Cao Xin’s faces turned ugly.

Even if their actions just now weren’t outright kicking someone when they’re down, they were close.

“If you two had just left without helping earlier, I wouldn’t have minded. But you even stayed, hoping to get a share—don’t blame me now for disregarding our fellowship as sectmates.”

“No! Gu Fan, you misunderstood. We were just waiting for the right moment to save you!”

Cao Xin hurriedly explained.

“Yes, the two of us were planning to rescue you!”

Gu Fan couldn’t be bothered to respond—saying such nonsense out loud, did they take him for a fool?

He completely ignored their pleas for mercy.

By now, the first disciple had already died on the battlefield.

A Shangqing Sect disciple pushed away a White Bone Warrior with a palm, but new strength had yet to form while his old strength was spent.

In an instant, dozens of Bone Sabers slashed down on him.

“Fifth Junior Brother!”

The rest wanted to save him, but it was already too late.

In the blink of an eye, that person had been chopped into chunks of flesh!

“Ah! Gu Fan! I’ll fight you to the death!”

Lin Yi returned to Gu Fan’s side with a cold sneer.

“Back in the Great Qian Dynasty, we were able to slaughter every last one of you. Naturally, we can do it again today. What do you have to fight me with?”

However, the roars of these people were merely powerless fury.

Once the first had fallen, the rest could no longer be stopped.

In just a few minutes, another disciple had fallen.

This time, it was one of the five from Mangzhuo Sacred Land.

The leader, Dongye Xiu, only cast a cold glance, watching as his junior brother was hacked by dozens of White Bone Warriors with over a hundred strikes, leaving nothing but a pile of minced meat.

Yet in his eyes brewed boundless rage and madness.

“Heh, looks like that stung?”

Gu Fan’s voice rang out again, his tone laced with mockery.

“But who can you blame? If you had been a bit more cautious, maybe this wouldn’t have been your end.”

“Gu Fan! We realize our mistake! Please spare our lives!”

Sun Zhen and Cao Xin once more spoke up, clinging to the last thread of hope.

“And I, from Sacred Land Pei Mountain as well—I’m willing to offer a treasured item in exchange for my safety!”

“And I, from the Yu Family! As long as you spare me this once, I will present a supreme treasure! My word is my bond!”

At that, Lin Yi laughed. He had always been one to hold grudges.

Among this group, the ones who had humiliated Gu Fan and Lin Yi the most were Sacred Land Pei Mountain and the hidden family Yu Family!

One had shouted to enslave him as a battle servant, the other said they needed a coachman.

Now they wanted to beg for mercy?

“Hahaha, so this is the backbone of the Sacred Lands and noble families? Those bones sure are soft!”

“Brother Gu, why do I still prefer their arrogant faces from just now? Weren’t they going to take us as their battle servant and coachman?”

Wang Qi and Yu Feihuang were thoroughly humiliated by the mockery.

But when life and death were on the line, who could still care about pride?

“Ah!”

“Help me!”

Another series of screams echoed—within just this brief moment, several more disciples had fallen.

Their deaths were incomparably tragic.

For a moment, the entire valley was shrouded in the aura of death.

Gu Fan stepped forward.

“Stop wasting energy trying to beg for mercy. You’d be better off thinking how to kill a few more White Bone Warriors.”

“Let me be clear—from the moment I entered Little Min Mountain, I never planned on letting any of you leave alive!”

Finishing his words, he ignored the crowd’s pleas and roars, and with a wave of his hand—

“Kill them all!!”

Immediately, all the White Bones surged forward like they had taken stimulants, pouncing upon the crowd even more frenziedly.

In an instant, the pressure on everyone multiplied.

Screams continued to rise on the battlefield.

In just a short while, of the more than forty people, fewer than thirty now remained.

And the White Bone Warriors had lost nearly four thousand.

It looked brutal, but in fact, as time passed, the loss rate of the White Bone Soldiers was slowing.

Because they didn’t feel fatigue or fear—as long as Gu Fan gave the order, they would charge forward even unto certain death.

However, the cultivators being besieged were already beginning to feel exhausted, their spiritual energy running low.

At the same time, they saw their fellow disciples fall one after another, hacked into unrecognizable corpses.

A boundless fear and despair rose uncontrollably in their hearts!

Even the heirs of the major Sacred Lands and hidden families were starting to panic!

The Five Major Righteous Sects had been slaughtered to the point where only a few remained, barely holding on!

The only ones still in somewhat favorable condition were the people from Mangzhuo Sacred Land.

They were among the few who specialized in physical body cultivation. At this moment, they still had ample stamina and were in relatively good shape.

When fighting off the White Bone Warriors, they mainly relied on physical strength, using very little spiritual energy.

At this moment, Dongye Xiu finally steeled his resolve and shouted loudly.

“Everyone! I have a secret technique that can unleash an attack of the True Yang Realm. Please lend me your strength! I will carve a path forward!”

In an instant, everyone turned toward him, hope lighting up their eyes!
