Chapter 713 707: Curse

The Grand Elder of the Void Race understood that things had reached this point, and without paying some price, it would be difficult to achieve their goal.

"Buddha, Demon Lord, Wa Huang, you are indeed impressive."

"Even if our entire Void Race exhausts all its strength, we can only let you slaughter us."

"But our Void Race is not to be trifled with!"

"Even in death, we'll splatter you with blood!" After finishing his bold declaration, the Void Race Grand Elder spoke.

With a ripping sound, he tore off his entire skin.

"I sacrifice my skin to the Void, connecting cause and effect."

"All who slaughtered my people, weighed down by excessive murder, should suffer the punishment of being burned by fierce flames." After the Void Race Grand Elder finished, black flames suddenly emerged from the skin in his hand.

A curse.

This is the curse of the Grand Elder of the Void Race.

As the human skin in the Void Race Grand Elder's hand burned, the curse took effect.

At the same time.

Many disciples of Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and Buddha were also engulfed in black flames like those on the human skin held by the Void Race Grand Elder.

The previous black flames were Void Fire, but these flames were the Fire of Cause and Effect.

The Fire of Cause and Effect is even harder to extinguish than Void Fire.

Because a single human skin can only impose a limited curse, those set aflame were those heavily weighed down by murder.

In other words, the more Void Race members someone killed, the more they suffered.

The people covered by the Fire of Cause and Effect constituted about two or three-tenths of the disciples of Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and Buddha.

Moreover, those who suffered most were the disciples of Demon Lord.

Demon Lord and Buddha hunted the Void Race more frequently than Wa Huang.

Demon Lord's disciples, cultivating the Demon Path, loved slaughtering the most, so naturally, his disciples killed the most Void Race members.

Of all those aflame, more than half were Demon Lord's disciples.

Thus, the Great Demon God Palace suffered heavy losses.

"Ah!" Demon Lord roared angrily, cursing, "Why, why are they all my people dying!"

Previously, Demon Lord mocked Wa Huang bitterly; now, it's Wa Huang's turn to strike back.

"Back then, when slaughtering the Void Race, it was your men who killed the most!"

"This is the cycle of good deeds being rewarded and evil deeds being punished!" Wa Huang replied sarcastically.

Demon Lord was already angry, and Wa Huang's words stirred his anger further.

"Wa Huang, you..." Demon Lord pointed furiously at Wa Huang.

Now, their disciples and the Void Race Grand Elder were close to tearing each other apart.

At this point, Wa Huang and Demon Lord were still quarreling?

Seeing this scene, Buddha was speechless, as if he had reached his limit of exasperation.

To prevent these two from infighting, Buddha had to step forward to mediate.

"This is not the time to argue; the pressing issue now is to deal with him."

"This time, it is indeed Demon Lord's disciples who suffered!"

"Next time, who knows what means he will use?"

"Next time, perhaps it will be Wa Huang's disciples who suffer!" Buddha spoke sternly.

The infighting between Demon Lord and Wa Huang was a minor issue.

Under Buddha's mediation, the two quickly fell silent.

"Buddha is right, the urgent matter is to deal with the Void Race Grand Elder; I can't be bothered to argue with him," Wa Huang said coldly.

Demon Lord also said to Buddha: "We three can't make a move, so how do we tackle him?"

"Buddha, come up with a plan!"

Now, it fell to Buddha to propose a solution.

They faced heavy losses, and if a proper resolution plan wasn't devised soon, this operation might be ruined by the Void Race Grand Elder himself.

Buddha sharply watched the battlefield, where the Void Race Grand Elder, with his skin removed, was bloodied yet still fighting against Peacock Great Ming King and the three others.

Moreover, the Void Race Grand Elder was constantly casting malicious glances, tightly fixing his gaze on their disciples!

It was apparent that even under the siege of the three, the Void Race Grand Elder still sought opportunities to strike and kill their disciples.

He was indeed a ruthless man!

If he could be so cruel to himself, how much more so to others.

The sooner he's dealt with, the less chance for unforeseen complications.

With this in mind, Buddha looked at Wa Huang and Demon Lord, and said gravely, "Each of us should provide one treasure and dispatch a disciple, each equipped with our treasures, to join the battle."

"Six disciples, five treasures, plus Peacock Great Ming King, should be enough to resolve the issue with the Void Race Grand Elder."

If three against one can't defeat the Void Race Grand Elder, then six against one should suffice.

Even if the Void Race Grand Elder had three heads and six arms, he wouldn't withstand it.

Buddha's proposal was fair enough.

Moreover, Peacock Great Ming King and the three were clearly unable to settle the Void Race Grand Elder on their own.

If disciples aren't sent now, they would need to be dispatched later.

Delaying might give the Void Race Grand Elder the chance to take them by surprise and eliminate their disciples.

It's all the tipping of the scales; initially, Buddha was adding oil one bit at a time.

Now, it's time to fill up the oil reservoir.

Buddha, Demon Lord, and Wa Huang each took out a treasure and summoned their disciples, instructing them to carry the treasures into battle.

From Wa Huang's side, the one sent was Nato.

"Senior Brother Kong, I'm here to help."

Nato, wielding Wa Huang's Red Embroidery Ball, shouted as he joined the battlefield.

...

...

Here, the Void Race Grand Elder battled against six.

On the other side, other Void Race members had split into two groups, reaching both the Great Demon God Palace and Wa Huang's Palace.

Wa Huang's Palace.

Xi Huang guarded the entrance of Wa Huang Palace, confronting the Void Race.

"Hmph!" Watching the Void Race outside Wa Huang Palace, Xi Huang snorted, "Looks like the Void Race has divided its forces, wanting to attack Wa Huang Palace to force Wa Huang back?"

"You're dreaming! With me, Xi Huang, here, you cannot step into Wa Huang Palace."

For Wa Huang Palace, this was a feint; the Great Demon God Palace was the main target.

Though a feint, it must exude the momentum of a major assault.

The Void Race members attacking Wa Huang Palace were all determined to die, each harboring a deathwish.

Even knowing that Wa Huang Palace was defended by the master Xi Huang, they still launched their attack without hesitation.

"Charge!"

"Slay! Invade Wa Huang Palace!"

"Kill!"

The Void Race members charged toward Wa Huang's Palace, ready to die without fear.

Xi Huang, standing above, flicked his wrist, causing droplets of mud to fall.

As the droplets hit the ground, they expanded in the wind, transforming into colossal Void Beasts, which lunged at the Void Race.

The array's slaughter.

The beasts' devouring.

Plus Xi Huang's own intervention, the Void Race members, knowing death awaited in attacking Wa Huang Palace, still pushed forward one after another.
