Chapter 99: Heaven and Earth Severing Prison, Myriad Frost Souls Eradicate the World

The heavy iron gates of the Blood River Assassination Guild’s hidden valley was firmly shut. But it posed no problem as Chen Luo and the twins simply flew over them, landing directly in the outer area.

The valley was massive, bustling with hundreds of assassins moving about in the dark. However, before the alarm could even be raised, the twin brothers moved.

"Heaven and Earth Severing Prison!"

The twins shouted in unison and threw dozens of array flags into the air. These weren’t some ordinary flags, they were crafted from Tier 4 Spirit Beast bones.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A massive, translucent golden dome of light instantly erupted, covering the entire valley and sealing the sky above. The spiritual energy in the air became almost thick and sticky making it feel like walking through mud.

Feeling the sudden change in spiritual energy, the squad leader nearby immediately shouted, "Enemy attack!"

But then suddenly he looked up and saw the golden barrier surrounding the building. His expression changed immediately.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Break the formation!"

He drew his blade and charged forward, leading the gathered fifty Qi Condensation Realm assassins toward the golden barrier. The others followed close behind, attacking the barrier together.

Bang!

Their combined attack hit the barrier, but it only rippled slightly. The assassins spat out blood, their weapons shattered from the recoil alone.

"Brother, they are annoying. Please Lock this whole space," One of the twin said calmly.

"Understood." The other reached into his spatial ring and pulled out a massive chunk of dark wood. This was Void Locking Spiritual Wood, a Tier 5 material used to stabilize spatial tears in the top notch Mid Grade Storage Treasures. With a casual toss, he threw it into the array eye.

Crack!

The golden barrier instantly turned a deep, oppressive black. The spatial fluctuations in the valley were completely frozen. No one could use movement techniques or teleportation talismans now.

"Keep the pressure up. Don’t let them even breathe," Chen Luo said as he walked forward unhurriedly. On his face was that same simple and gentle smile.

But to the assassins, that smile was more terrifying than the grin of a demon.

Chen Luo’s hand grasped the hilt of his sword.

A chilling sword light illuminated the dark valley. This was his weapon, a Tier 5 High Grade Masterpiece, the Netherworld Soul Seeking Sword. The blade was pitch black, with a blood red groove running down the center.

He then swung the sword.

"Wrath of Abyss."

Swishhh!

A crescent shaped black Sword Qi, fifty feet long, swept across the area.

Thirty assassins in the front didn’t even have time to scream. Their bodies, along with their defensive spiritual shields were sliced cleanly in half. Blood sprayed into the air like a red mist. It was as easy as slaughtering chickens for him.

"Monster! Monster! He’s a monster! Kill him! Kill him NOW!!"

Panic finally broke out. The assassins realized they were facing a nightmare. Hundreds of them swarmed toward Chen Luo, launching a rain of hidden weapons, poison darts and elemental techniques.

Chen Luo didn’t bother dodging. Every attack disappeared the moment it came close to him, unable to even touch his body.

He then simply raised his hand and unleashed his technique.

"Shadow Burial."

Once again, a terrifying wave of spiritual energy swept across the battlefield.

Before they could react, the attack tore through their ranks in an instant.

Hundreds of bodies collapsed almost simultaneously.

"Miss ordered us to wipe them out completely. Don’t leave anyone alive," Cegn Lu said coldly.

The twins began to act immediately and stared using many high grade things like they were throwing away garbage.

"Here, add some Blazing Sun Stone to burn their spiritual energy!" One the twin threw in a basket of Tier 4 materials.

"I’ll add some Nine Serpents Soul Stones to suppress their souls!" Th other tossed in another basket of Tier 5 materials.

Then, they opened their spatial rings and started pouring out mid grade spiritual stones. Not just the handful, but in large quantities.

Clatter! Clatter! Clatter!

Thousands and thousands of glowing mid grade spiritual stones rained down, embedding themselves into the ground to power the formation. The pitch black barrier erupted with blinding, terrifying light. The pressure inside the valley doubled, then tripled.

The assassins hitting the barrier felt their bones cracking under the sheer weight of the formation. They looked up and saw the twins casually burning through materials that would make a city lord go bankrupt, using them like cheap things.

Despair washed over the Blood River Assassination Guild’s assassins. They couldn’t escape and they couldn’t even break the formation. Worse, their enemy seemed to have an endless supply of resources. They were trapped here with nowhere to run and now all they could do was wait for the slaughter to begin.

"Die!!!" Another reinforcement group of two hundred elite assassins, led by three Peak Foundation Establishment Realm elders roared as they charged at Chen Luo, trying to overwhelm him with sheer numbers.

Chen Luo stopped walking. He held the Netherworld Soul Seeking Sword vertically in front of him.

"Sword Domain," He whispered. "Myriad Frost Souls Eradicate the World."

Instantly, the temperature in the valley plummeted to absolute zero. The sky above the formation turned purple black and a ghostly, ethereal blue light illuminated the entire area. From the empty air, thousands of translucent, fist sized ice swords materialized. Each ice sword contained the wailing face of a frozen soul.

The air itself seemed to shatter like glass.

"Go," Chen Luo said softly.

Boom!

The thousands of ice swords shot forward like a roaring silver tide. The sound was deafening, like a group of wolves howling at once. The tide of swords swept over the two hundred elites. Their defensive artifacts shattered like paper, their bodies were frozen in a split second and then they were shredded into fine bloody ice powder.

In less than five seconds, the entire group was wiped out. Not a single piece of flesh was left. The ground was covered in a thick layer of red frost.

The remaining assassins completely collapsed mentally and physically. They dropped their weapons, falling to their knees, crying and begging for mercy. But Chen Luo didn’t stop. His sword continued to dance with a beautiful and deadly slashes. Every swing took dozens of lives.

Finally, the slaughter reached the central plaza.

The Vice Guild Master, along with the remaining ten core elders and about fifty of the guild’s most elite shadow guards, had backed up against the main hall. They were drenched in cold sweat as they formed a tight, desperate defensive turtle formation, combining their spiritual energy into a massive but trembling shield.

They stared at Chen Luo, who was walking toward them slowly, his black sword dripping with fresh blood. The twins stood on the rooftops, casually tossing the last few mid grade spiritual stones into the formation to keep it at maximum power.

The Vice Guild Master gritted his teeth, his voice trembling despite his attempt to sound fierce. "You... you dare attack the Blood River Assassination Guild! Our leader will not let you go! If you take one more step, we will activate the self destruction and take you down with us!"

Chen Luo stopped ten meters away from them.

He looked at the trembling Vice Guild Master, then at the fifty elites huddled together in their defensive formation.

The simple, gentle smile on Chen Luo’s face widened just a fraction. His eyes, however, were as cold as the deepest abyss.

"Your leader? He couldn’t even withstand a casual glance from our Miss and It seems you have saved me the time of hunting you down one by one."
