Chapter Seventy-Three: Beast Tide

  He arrived just in time. In a flash, a figure burst in and with a raise of his hand, the stars and rivers turned upside down. His power was astonishing, and with one move, he blocked the five men.

  Bang bang bang, Xing Wu Jin took five consecutive hits and retreated five steps, while the Sheng Tian Wang's five-man team was also forced to stop.

  "Xīng Wú Jìn, you've also arrived. How convenient for me to avenge this arrow's grudge," said the golden-haired king of the Sun God Temple, his gnashed teeth revealing that he had suffered greatly at Xīng Wú Jìn's hands.

  "Oh, Luo De, it's you. The defeated general is at a loss for words today, I wonder if your clothes are prepared enough," Xing Wu Jin laughed loudly.

  Boom!

  Xing Wu Jin's words had barely fallen when a giant sun suddenly appeared, and the golden-haired strongman Luo De seemed to have gone mad. The sun was like a wheel, pressing down on Xiao Gu and Xing Wu Jin, melting all the sand and gravel in its path, inspiring boundless terror.

  Clang!

  A faint sound echoed, a long sword suddenly appeared, blocking the rolling sun.

  "Your opponent is me," Gu Changqing's face turned pale as he descended from the sky.

  Roar!

  Sheng Tianwang let out a furious roar, seeing Gu Changqing, he was filled with hatred and fury. Not long ago, Gu Changqing and Wu Tongtian's ambush had left him with a fresh memory of the pain, and his injuries had only just barely healed in the past few days.

  Victory King's body seemed to have a raging flame burning outside, at this moment he looked like an unruly and unmatched barbarian, his eyes emitting a wild light, his black long hair moving without wind, he took big strides forward, every step making the mountains and forests tremble, as if a giant was moving, exuding an extremely frightening pressure, making people's hearts throb repeatedly.

  Bang!

  Sheng Tian Wang's overbearing aura was unmatched, and with a punch forward, the void shook violently, almost shattering. The unstoppable sharpness made the cultivators watching the battle cry out in shock.

  However, a bronze fist stained with blood inserted from the slant stab and actually blocked this violent punch.

  He was two heads taller than ordinary people, with muscles all over his body that were twisted and knotted. Even before approaching him, he gave off a terrifying pressure, as if he were a golden Buddha with an angry gaze. The newcomer was none other than Wu Tongtian!

  Just as he was about to continue his attack after being blocked once, another figure made him withdraw the fist he had just thrown.

  "Victory to the King of Heaven, today's battle will seal your doom," On the other side of the valley, Emperor Tian descended with great strides, his hundred-strong entourage gazing fiercely ahead, yet none dared take the lead in attacking, a testament to his formidable presence.

  "Is it?" Blonde Rod sneered.

  At this time, countless cultivators have arrived, surrounding the area to the point of being impenetrable. Except for a small portion of cultivators, almost all those who entered the Barbarian Island had gathered here, making it an unprecedented grand gathering. And all of this was just for Xiao Gu.

  "Xiao brother, I'd say even if you died right now, you'd still have nothing to be ashamed of," Wu Tongtian laughed loudly.

  "The wind and rain have stopped, but the trees are still swaying. I'm also forced to do this out of helplessness. Actually, I'm a very kind person and hate killing the most." Xiao Gu's long sigh was full of sorrow for heaven and pity for humans, his expression as if it were real.

  Damn it, this guy is too shameless. Who came up with this plan to kill many cultivators? You're still pretending, pretending to death, Xing Wuji and others secretly despise him in their hearts.

  Even Old Wang Ba on Xiao Gu's shoulder shrank his head into the turtle shell, with a look of "I don't know this guy".

  Look at the situation now, Xiao Gu has really made a big deal this time!

  Just thinking that many cultivators, even the powerful ones who have become kings, will fall here, Gu Changqing and others felt a tremble in their hearts, followed by a surge of excitement.

  "Xiao Gu, hand over the young dragon, and I can leave," the assassin said, he instinctively felt something was off and wanted to escape, but was reluctant to leave just yet.

  "I want the elixir," Rod blonde said equally unwilling to fall behind.

  "This king is very interested in your divine ability, hand it over and I'll spare your life," said the scar-faced man expressionlessly.

  "This throne has no demands, only the oil lamp in your hand, hand it over, and I can help you escape this calamity," the fourth person spoke up, making Xiao Gu's heart feel a chill. Few strong people knew about the oil lamp, yet now it was unexpectedly called out by this unknown king.

  "This king wants your life," said Sheng Tian Wang finally.

  "Heh, it seems that there are quite a few people who have their eyes on my belongings, but I wonder what others want besides you two. Hmm! However, it appears that you've taken everything from me, so what about the others?" Xiao Gu said with a faint smile.

  As soon as these words came out, countless cultivators around them suddenly began to stir, and the eyes of the kings such as Sheng Tian Wang also became dangerous.

  "You're on death's doorstep and yet you still dare to sow discord," Rod said with a cold sneer.

  "Gentlemen, once we get what we want, we will naturally compensate everyone. Please rest assured, I swear on the name of my ancestor, the Sun God Temple's founder, that 'we will definitely let everyone receive sufficient compensation'," Luo De said, turning to face the many cultivators.

  "Count me in," Scarface said.

  "Agreed," the killer nodded.

  "Alright, no objection," said the third person.

  "The Medicine Emperor's Hall will compensate everyone with sufficient benefits. If everyone can get what we want, the Medicine Emperor's Hall is willing to exchange with sufficient divine objects," said Sheng Tianwang, nodding in agreement.

  "Haha, that's really unfortunate, but what you said doesn't count, let your elders come out instead," Xiao Gu laughed and said. With the wisdom of all the kings, how could they be stumped by this question? Xiao Gu had no intention of doing so from the beginning.

  The reason for the delay is that Xiao Gu and others are not just for the people in front of them, but also for the strong elders behind them, who are the key.

  "Hmph, young one, we agree," a hoary figure appeared beside Sheng Tian Wang.

  "Agreed, hand it over," More elderly powerhouses appeared, with at least one standing behind each of the powerhouses who had been crowned kings.

  In their view, Xiao Gu had only this choice, to hand over the precious elixir, and after these people retreated a part of the way, relying on the power of the five sealed kings to fight to the death, there should still be an opportunity to break out a path to life. However, whether they could leave or not was another matter...

  It's a pity they thought too much and dug their own grave, yet still unaware of it!

  "Great," Xiao Gu gave a prepared glance at Xing Wu Jin and others while looking at the person who spoke.

  "Are you going to deceive your master and destroy your ancestors?" The elder powerhouse in front of Sheng Tianwang spoke up.

  As expected, the old ginger is still spicy, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he put a big hat on both of them.

  "Hey, you old turtle, didn't you see your Turtle Grandfather is here? Get over here and kowtow! Let me tell you, these two young ones are under my Turtle Grandfather's protection. What kind of scallions are you?" Old Wang Ba suddenly popped out again from who-knows-where.

  "Huh? The old man's eyes widened, his golden pupils suddenly expanding by more than three feet, causing Xiao Gu to furrow his brow."

  What a powerful old man!

  "I've heard of you, I'll catch you later and stew you into a soup," said the old man behind Luo De, with a strong murderous intent, staring at Lao Wang Ba as if he would pounce on him at any moment.

  "Who the hell are you, you old turtle? How dare you let this neither-man-nor-woman thing run wild here, you demon! Show your true form!" Old Wang Ba shouted.

  Pfft! Xiao Gu couldn't hold it in and directly spat it out laughing.

  Xing Wu Jin and others didn't laugh out loud, but they also found it very hard to bear.

  Look around again, countless cultivators, after hearing Lao Wang's words, simultaneously fixed their eyes on the old man, guessing that if it weren't for fear of the old man's strength, they wouldn't know what kind of laughter they would have become.

  A red robe, hair and beard all gone, skin as white as a baby's with a hint of red, long black hair hanging down to the waist, looks like a demon but is taken for a human.

  "You," the old man was so angry that he stuttered, but the scolding words could not be spoken no matter what. In any case, arguing with a turtle would make him lose!

  "Also, you younger ones, although I don't know what your school of thought is, but you must think clearly about the consequences, otherwise, it won't be good if disaster befalls your teachers," said the elder behind Sheng Tian Wang once again.

  "Old man, stop relying on your age to bully others, I'm not afraid of you," Xing Wuji laughed loudly.

  "Are you dragging your master into this? Your Medicine Emperor Hall is not even qualified, a clown-like thing, and yet you still have the face to be self-satisfied," Huang Xing Tian said with disdain.

  "Get moving, no more nonsense!" Xiao Gu suddenly bellowed!

  Buzz!

  In an instant, the entire valley was filled with golden Dao patterns. A gate appeared under the feet of Xiao Gu and others, enveloping the five people, who instantly disappeared without a trace.

  "Enjoy the big meal we've prepared for you," laughed Xiao Gu with a loud guffaw.

  "Want to leave?" An old man sneered and followed, but with a loud crash, the originally huge stone platform shattered into pieces of rubble, forcing him back again.

  "'Pursue!' The crowd shouted in unison and rushed towards both sides of the valley entrance. However, they soon retreated back."

  Rumble, rumble...

  A deafening sound came from both ends, making their faces turn pale.

  This is the sound of a large number of fierce beasts running!
