Chapter 885 Giving up

In fact, Shun Long wasn't the only one who was staring at the ma.s.sive black thundercloud in the sky above him.

Liu Mei, Xingyi, Bai Longtian, and Jiang Chen had also stopped their actions at the same time as they simultaneously turned their gazes in his direction, before their expressions immediately changed.

Was this heavenly tribulation really intent on completely eradicating Shun Long?

However, the 4 of them weren't the only ones who were alerted by this commotion.

Even Yao Guanting's group seemed to have realized what was going on, as the five early rank 9 Dao Kings' expressions turned extremely colorful as well.

Although their vision was still suppressed by Jiang Chen's 'Kingdom of Darkness' and they couldn't see what was going on outside like Liu Mei and the rest, Yao Guanting and his group were still able to clearly hear the booming sound of the heavenly tribulation above them, causing their expressions to turn just as horrified as Liu Mei and the rest.

Even though they were fighting more than a thousand meters away from Shun Long, the aura of the heavenly tribulation in the sky had already grown so powerful and it covered such a large distance, that even the 5 early rank 9 Dao Kings found it hard to breathe!

''How could his heavenly tribulation be so powerful? What the h.e.l.l is this?'' The first one to speak was the yellow-robed middle-aged man Zhong Lei, who could no longer hide his terrified expression from showing on his face as he shouted out in horror.

Clearly, the amount of pressure that the heavenly tribulation above him was now emitting, was more than enough to completely destroy his spiritual sea many times over!

Although Zhong Lei knew that his actual strength was only average as an early rank 9 Dao King, as an alchemist, he had already consumed so many pills and rare medicinal herbs over the years, that he was confident his spiritual strength was already on par with a peak rank 9 Dao King!

And yet, Zhong Lei could clearly tell that even with the spiritual strength of a peak rank 9 Dao King, he would still be nothing more than a mantis trying to stop a chariot if he tried to block this bolt of heavenly tribulation! His only outcome would be the complete destruction of his spiritual sea.

Naturally, even the suppression from Jiang Chen's 'Kingdom of Darkness' wasn't able to block the sound of the Heavenly tribulation from entering Zhong Lei's and the others' ears, or stop the pressure that it was emitting.

Of course, if Yao Guanting, Zhong Lei, and the other 3 early rank 9 Dao Kings were being suppressed so badly, how could the rest of the middle and late-stage Dao Kings in their group fare any better?

The group of 100 Dao Kings immediately fell in disarray, while the middle-stage Dao Kings couldn't help but collapse on the ground soon afterwards!

''What...? What's with this pressure?''

''What is going on? I can't even circulate my qi properly!''

''This heavenly tribulation... why is it so strong? Even a peak rank 9 Dao King that's breaking through to the Dao Emperor realm can't survive this!''

Of course, the middle and late-stage Dao Kings in Yao Guanting's group weren't the only ones who were affected from the pressure of the Heavenly Tribulation in the sky.

Liu Mei, Xingyi, Bai Longtian, and Jiang Chen, were also finding it hard to remain on their feet, as the pressure boring down on them kept increasing with every pa.s.sing second.

The only one who seemed relatively unaffected was Little Silver, as it continued to slaughter the middle and late-stage Dao Kings around it without mercy.

Soon, the cries of the Dao Kings around it reached Yao Guanting's and the others' ears while the stench of blood drifted through the air as it a.s.saulted their noses, causing their expressions to turn even uglier.

After a moment of hesitation, the green-robed young woman, Liang Bao turned her gaze in Yao Guanting's direction, before she asked him in a weak, uncertain voice

''What should we do? Should we... keep fighting?''

It was obvious that as things were right now, not only would they be unable to deal with Little Silver, but they may even get slaughtered instead!

Gritting his teeth, Yao Guanting clenched the hilt of his black sword so tightly that his hand actually turned white, before he finally said in a suppressed voice that struggled to contain his fury

''Retreat!''

The surrounding Dao Kings felt as if they had just been pardoned, as they hurriedly gave up on fighting Little Silver and tried to escape in all directions.

Clearly, they had severely underestimated the peak rank 6 magic beast in front of them, as well as the effects of the darkness around them, causing them to suffer greatly during this fight.

However, Yao Guanting's words barely had enough time to leave his mouth and reach the ears of his subordinates, before his expression abruptly changed.

Without any hesitation, the early rank 9 Dao King turned around and slashed his sword horizontally, as he roared angrily

''f.u.c.k off!''

In the next moment however, Yao Guanting's eyes widened as a terrifying scene unfolded in his eyes. His sword was actually trapped between the teeth of an enormous, hideous-looking monster that was standing behind him, whose entire body was now dripping with endless malice and bloodl.u.s.t as it 'stared' at him with its mouth open!

Although the monster in front of him seemed to be lacking any eyes, Yao Guanting could tell that its entire attention was solely focused on him right now.

Of course, this 'monster' was none other than Liu Mei's 'Death Eater'.

Clearly, Liu Mei may have been willing to let anyone else escape, but there was no way she was going to let Yao Guanting or Zhong Lei leave this place in one piece!

Without any hesitation, the Death Eater suddenly chomped down on Yao Guanting while his black sword was still stuck in its mouth, as the sensation of death gripped Yao Guanting's heart for the second time!

...

At the same time, in the sky right above Shun Long, at the center of the ma.s.sive black thundercloud, the sparks of white lightning seemed to have finally gathered together, as the bolt of heavenly tribulation slowly took the appearance of a certain magic beast.
