My Two-sided Cultivation: Starting From Collecting Experiences-Chapter 660 Surrounded!
660 Surrounded!
A man with a strikingly ugly face spoke up. It was clear that he was the leader of the Qiongqi clan. Rather than becoming more refined upon entering the king realm, his features grew even more unusual. His muscles seemed disconnected, giving the appearance of gaping mouths that flexed and writhed.
Their confidence was apparent, and rightly so. With three king realm experts and thousands of elite warriors who had researched Qin Huai's abilities thoroughly, they were a force to be reckoned with. Such meticulous preparation was reminiscent of the approach taken centuries ago against a king from the Buddhist Sect, one who sought to establish the imperial road.
"Sure, I'll show you," Qin Huai said. With those words, an intangible gust swept across the land.
The blood sea king, purple flame king, and the Qiongqi clan's leader stared in disbelief as three blood-red blades erupted around them. The atmosphere grew thick with the scent of impending doom.
Screams echoed as the blades tore through the surroundings. While the three kings managed to evade the attacks, many from the six royal clans were not so fortunate. They were killed instantly.
"Is his domain similar to that of the white-robed king, one of the Sacred Heart Sect's four guardians?" pondered the blood sea king.
"It's quicker, more lethal," the Qiongqi clan leader agreed, noting that Qin Huai's strikes seemed to originate from within them, almost undetectably.
The gathered elders were visibly anxious. Unlike the kings, they lacked the keen perception to anticipate and evade Qin Huai's domain, making them vulnerable targets.
"The Sacred Heart Sect's blood heart technique… That's what you're using," the blood sea king observed, his voice laced with concern.
He wondered if Qin Huai was a covert agent of the Sacred Heart Sect and if this entire scenario was a well-orchestrated trap. Qin Huai's audacity in facing such a massive army alone, coupled with his decision to send away his trusted allies, seemed almost too brazen to be genuine.
The three kings exchanged uneasy glances. The Sacred Heart Sect was notorious for its cunning schemes and willingness to go to extreme lengths to achieve its aims.
"Let's take it one step at a time!" the clan leader exclaimed, emphasizing the importance of hierarchy and territories. "Seal!" he commanded, and the strange, mouth-like flesh on his body animated, becoming a broad open doorway.
Qin Huai felt his boundless blood world starting to fade. It wasn't just disappearing, it was being restrained. He turned his attention to the clan leader and noticed faint blood lines being consumed by the seal.
An ability to seal away someone's domain? Qin Huai instantly realized the clan leader's technique. A domain that could neutralize an opponent's domain? It was a strong move, granting a significant advantage to those proficient in the visceral prefecture realm.
Especially when teaming up with allies, its impact could be immense against mighty kings. No wonder the three kings were so sure of their victory.
The clan leader smirked. "Now, all you have left is your skeletal king form." The numerous grotesque mouths on his body shut, restoring his usual appearance. "Rumors say your physical prowess is unparalleled in your realm. Let's see if you can breach this huge attack using just that."
The blood sea king maintained a steady pace, every development unfolding as they'd anticipated. They believed they had anticipated Qin Huai's every action and strategy. Or perhaps, Qin Huai had grown overly confident, feeling invincible due to his acclaim.
"No person, no matter how strong, is truly unbeatable," he mused. "Remember the once invincible dragon clan emperor? Even he met his end here. And the Emperor of Qingzhou from ages past? He remained confined to Qingzhou, never daring to venture beyond."
As the blood sea king approached Qin Huai, an overpowering intent to kill radiated from him. With each step, the wails of countless spirits, akin to war drums, amplified his presence.
Suddenly…
"Evil Ghost Hell!"
The ground beneath Qin Huai splintered. A vast, bloody maw emerged from the depths, threatening to consume him. However, the roar of a white tiger echoed, its power momentarily halting the spirits. A phantom of the white tiger burst from Qin Huai, devouring the malicious spirits.
Both tigers clashed, energy radiating from their confrontation and scorching miles of the land. Forced to fall back repeatedly, the six royal clans' elites expanded their circle, trying to maintain their formation.
They were left with no choice but to defend. The intense gusts sliced some demons in half, their blood spewing forth and enhancing the power of the tiger.
Meanwhile, the purple flame king, closing in on Qin Huai, stopped. His searing purple flames were kept at bay by the phoenix fire and the black tortoise, pinning him momentarily.
Many demons, recovering from the forceful winds, stared in awe at the figures surrounding Qin Huai: Azure Dragon, Black Tortoise, Phoenix, White Tiger, and Nine Neonate. These were the shadows of the eight royal clans, emitting an undeniable, fearsome aura. Even the clan leader's seal seemed to waver in their presence.
The "Eight Vicious War Domain" was recognized by the clan leader. "It's the Sacred Heart Sect's beast king's domain!" he exclaimed. Being familiar with the Sacred Heart Sect, he knew the might of their four great guardians. The realization that this was a second domain, and also from the Sacred Heart Sect, deeply puzzled him. "Who are you, really?"
The three kings began suspecting that Qin Huai was an agent of the Sacred Heart Sect. Overwhelmed by this theory, they overlooked the extraordinary feat of a warrior possessing two distinct king domains. Yet, given Qin Huai's reputation as a prodigious talent, this "rule-breaking" felt plausible.
"You might even surpass the Sacred Heart Sect's Holy Son," the blood sea king remarked begrudgingly.
"Perhaps the Holy Son was just a placeholder for Qin Huai," theorized the purple flame king.
"Whoever he is, he cannot be allowed to survive!" the clan leader roared. "Let's stop speculating and finish this!" As he spoke, the grotesque mouths on his body reopened, drawing upon an immense suction power, aiming to consume Qin Huai's Eight Vicious War Domain.
The eight beastly figures began distorting as they were gradually consumed by the clan leader. However, this exertion was clearly taxing. Blood seeped from him, bleeding profusely.
"I can't maintain this for long!" he shouted in distress.
The purple flame king was enveloped in his signature flames, while the blood sea king summoned an army of spirits as if from the very depths of hell.
"Everyone, join forces!" commanded the blood sea king, raising his arm. "We'll leverage our numbers to overpower him."
Qin Huai, surveying his enemies, retorted, "Numbers? You think you have the upper hand in numbers? Perhaps not in the king realm..."
