I Come to Teach You Cultivation-Chapter 214 - 29: The Counterattack of the Hundred Lands Mountain Range! (2/3)

"Today, I allow you to unleash a massacre, by any means necessary."

Once this order from the Celestial Erosion Monarch was given, the true, brutal slaughter began.

Amidst the resentment and fury, the Blood Demon manifested into thousands, executing the spirit monsters in the most painful and cruel ways.

During this process, the resentment beneath the waterfall was also affected, transforming into various corpse monsters, demon fiends, and ghostly spirits, exacting revenge against those who had slaughtered them.

This was the true Blood Demon, entities birthed from countless resentments, the legendary "Blood Evil Ghost."

Solo combat was never its strong suit; it thrived in the chaotic battles that ignited resentment and hatred.

Especially when bolstered by the power of the Gods.

Even the Gods under Lord Yashui's command found it challenging to eliminate this fear-spreading Evil Ghost, ever so elusive.

Soon, the area around the waterfall and a good portion of the Grand Canal turned into a chaotic battlefield.

Whirlwinds, torrential rains, thunder, and floods roared...

Screams, anger, roars, and battles shook the skies...

Lord Yashui would never have imagined that a mere insignificant Evil Ghost could turn the army he painstakingly assembled into such a dismal state.

It can only be said that once an Evil Ghost enters a suitable battlefield, the damage and threat it causes outstrip most Ghost Gods.

Undeniably, the fleeting appearance of the Tai Chi Diagram seven days ago.

Was also a major reason for the army's mental defenses being so fragile and easy to break.

Once a psychological defense is breached.

It's like a psychological shadow that will continue to affect one's entire life.

"Flower Mantis, are you not going to take action yet!?"

Seeing the army on the brink of collapse, Lord Yashui, coiled around the mountains, couldn't help but roar.

"You've offended the Third Prince and angered the King..."

"It was the Crown Prince who intervened to save you, and now it's time for you to repay that debt!"

As if in response to Lord Yashui.

A pink figure suddenly appeared in the chaotic battlefield center.

Holding sharp twin blades, the figure swiftly cut through, splitting the Blood Demon's manifestations with no resistance.

Shush!

The rain curtain was torn, the gale shattered...

The Flower Mantis charged through the battlefield with an indifferent expression, distinguishing neither friend nor foe.

Even the Water Gods, in their revelry, feared being inadvertently harmed and chose to retreat in the face of this powerful, battle-savvy spirit monster.

"It's that mantis! His arm has actually healed?"

On a distant hill, Er Tu gazed in astonishment at the Flower Mantis rampaging through the battlefield.

The Flower Mantis, unlike those Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals, was ruthless enough to cut off one of its own arms without a flinch.

Not to mention a mere Blood Evil Ghost.

Even the Tai Chi Diagram from seven days ago failed to break its mental fortitude.

This was a significant reason why Huo Ji was willing to risk vouching for the Flower Mantis and take it under his command.

Huo Ji's ranks were not lacking in powerful combatants.

In contrast, a spirit monster like the Flower Mantis, with its solid will and decisive nature, truly warranted Huo Ji's special attention.

"Wait, is that 'Body-Protecting Gang Qi' on him?"

At that moment, sharp-eyed Er Tu spotted a fleeting light on the Flower Mantis. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

That light blocked a sudden assault from the Blood Demon manifestation, allowing it to calmly turn and slay its attacker.

"Though incomplete, it indeed has the embryonic form of 'Body-Protecting Gang Qi.'

Noticing this as well, the usually indifferent Celestial Erosion Monarch finally furrowed his brow.

Then, to his surprise, he discovered that the Flower Mantis's twin blades maintained the state of Body-Protecting Gang Qi for long periods, drastically boosting its efficiency in killing.

The Flower Mantis's twin blades were already unimaginably sharp, with the sole flaw being insufficient durability.

Yet with the addition of Body-Protecting Gang Qi, even this sole flaw was remedied.

"Is it... self-taught?"

Unable to contain himself, Er Tu's mouth fell open, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Even though Li Boyang had improved it over the years, the true Body-Protecting Gang Qi was far removed from the original Primordial Qi Shield.

But to master a not entirely complete Body-Protecting Gang Qi without knowledge of a meridian system or any Breathing Technique.

It spoke volumes about the Flower Mantis's talent in this regard.

"What do you plan to do next?"

"At the rate that Flower Mantis is killing, your Blood Demon will be wiped out eventually."

What Er Tu said was true; the Flower Mantis swung its blades with incredible speed, and its jumping and running speeds were equally remarkable.

Wherever it passed, the Blood Demon's manifestations vanished entirely, as if it was their natural nemesis.

"Someone else will step in soon; that's not your concern."

The Celestial Erosion Monarch said calmly as You Chong beside him disappeared in an instant.

Then, countless war cries emanated from the direction of the Hundred Lands Mountain Range, charging ferociously toward the Grand Canal.

"Kill!"

"Take them down!"

"We are the true owners of this land!"

"Now's the time, an excellent opportunity, drive them all out!"

...

Amidst the rising war cries and charges, Er Tu quickly recognized the owners of those voices.

They were precisely the spirit monsters and Gods originally dwelling in these mountains and lands.

Among these Gods, the Mountain God and Earth God were most numerous.

This disaster not only destroyed the spirit monsters' habitats but also devastated the area's Earth Vein.

For the beings living in this region or those Mountain Gods and Earth Gods made divine through the Earth Vein, this was an opportunity they wouldn't miss.

"When did you get in touch with them?"

After being stunned for some time, Er Tu finally voiced what puzzled him the most.

Traveling alongside the Celestial Erosion Monarch, he hadn't seen any communication with other Gods or beings.

How did he gather so many resistors in such a short time?

"Do you think I'm just all talk like you?"

Rolling his eyes, the Celestial Erosion Monarch snorted with disdain.

"You should know that a thousand years ago, I was the Military Advisor to the Huai River Witch, mastering the art of rallying these ragtag groups."

"Seven days were more than enough for the Blood Demon to reach all those with the will to resist and plan this counterattack."

"What you see now are just the closest resistors..."

"As time goes on and those hesitant fools see hope, they'll eventually choose to join the battle too."
