The Path of the Martial Arts BOSS-Chapter 1174 - 199: Annihilation

Suzan Ming Venerate is dead, fallen under the siege of many.

A generation of supreme beings struggled to survive for hundreds of years, barely succeeding in reincarnation, only to die under siege in the end. Dying without dignity.

The Great Freedom Demon Qi emerged from Suzan Ming Venerate's corpse, attempting to escape, but was absorbed into the sky by Qing Yu.

Also taken away was Suzan Ming Venerate's corpse and the Heavenly Cluster Cloud Sword.

"Ding, the host has obtained the Great Freedom Demon Qi, achieving the feat: Who is the Demon of Demons? (5/6), with a special reward of a Demon Path-exclusive lottery draw."

The mechanical voice of the system sounded again in his ear.

"Draw it."

"Demon Path-exclusive lottery, drawing······"

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining a five-and-a-half-star character card: Commander Kui."

Name: Commander Kui

Realm: Supreme

Item: Heavenly Demon Bead

Martial Arts: Demon Eye Mysterious Trace

Evaluation: Heard you wanted the Heavenly Demon Bead, I have it here.

Commander Kui, the only Heavenly Demon Soldier with self-awareness, was formed from the essence of the Heavenly Demon's Eye. Upon descending into the Xuanyin Land, it took on the form of a mountain spirit and a wild monster using a purple sandalwood body. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Its ability can manipulate the human heart, even a supreme being may be led astray, but to Qing Yu, it was too weak.

Qing Yu temporarily set aside this character card, and transmitted a voice below: "Japan is about to sink, leave."

The earthquakes intensified frequently, and the earth veins of this island nation were severed. Even if it doesn't fully sink, it won't regain its original scale. The destruction of Japan is a foregone conclusion.

Upon hearing this, the people below saluted into the sky, slowly rising into the air.

Before leaving, Yun Zheng pointed to a figure in the distance resembling a thin monkey and asked, "How should Toyotomi Hideyoshi be dealt with?"

"After all, he did work for us, let him rest with Japan." Xuanyin Sword Residence replied without turning back.

Toyotomi Hideyoshi was merely an ant. If Yun Zheng hadn't mentioned, Xuanyin Sword Residence wouldn't have even glanced at him.

Hearing this, Yun Zheng shrugged and cast Toyotomi Hideyoshi out of his mind.

"Rumble—"

The sound of the vibrations grew louder, many places began to collapse, and the seas around Japan started to surge because of this unprecedented earthquake, with a giant wave about to form.

"Let this country vanish then."

Qing Yu's expression shifted slightly, like a fleeting shadow, instantly crossing a long distance to intercept a figure wrapped in moonlight.

"Yueyejian."

A figure embodying both sacredness and destruction blocked Yueyejian's path, "Pity, you are one step too late."

"And what if I came earlier? It would just be an extra life forfeited."

Yueyejian's cool demeanor remained, her face like cold frost, yet her trembling eyelashes and clenched fists within her sleeves betrayed her inner turmoil.

Indeed, it was strange if she could remain calm as her own country was destroyed, and her people couldn't escape the impending earthquakes and waves.

"So, what will you choose? Japan's Yueyejian Venerate," Qing Yu asked with hands behind his back, "I don't mind having another supreme being serving under me."

"Choice? There's never been a choice," Yueyejian shook her head, "I am one of Japan's three noble children, to bow to the destroyer of Japan, I'm not so shameless."

After all, as a supreme being, Yueyejian also had her dignity. Unlike Suzan Ming Venerate, whose spirit eroded over centuries, at least to her, death was not frightening.

"That is also a choice."

Qing Yu reached out a hand, "In that case, I shall fulfill your wish."

A blue divine flame spread across the sky, enveloping that full moon.

The battle began once more, and after a brief moment, ended with the giant hand pressing the full moon into the sea.

Yueyejian, fallen.

With this, Japan was entirely swept into the dust of history.

Perhaps some remnants not yet departed from East Province might survive, but by themselves, they couldn't rebuild a nation.

After all, a country's foundation lay in its people, without whom, it would be no different from a gang.

"Leave."

The divine splendor streaked across the sky, rapidly heading towards the Central Plains.

························

The next day, monstrous waves arose on the East Sea, flooding nearly half of the East Province, turning it into a marshland.

The Daqian army, on the verge of entering the East Province, retreated in haste. General Luo Feng led the Netherworld Palace's four kings to investigate the East Province, where they found no sign of life, not even birdsong.

Everywhere, there were corpses, soaked in seawater, lying on the water's surface.

Eventually, they discovered a mass grave at the former Jiang Family's Yanhuang Ridge, burying tens of thousands. On the pile of corpses were thousands of Japanese samurai who died by ritual suicide.

Among them, Japanese Divinity Realm warriors Shangquan Xingang and Hattori Hanzo were conspicuously present.

"Severed meridians and primordial spirit, died very thoroughly." King Qin Guang assessed, after inspecting Shangquan Xingang and Hattori Hanzo's kneeling corpses.

Mere ritual suicide wouldn't kill a Divinity Realm warrior, but shattering one's meridians and primordial spirit meant certain death.

"Even Divinity Realm warriors chose suicide, this······"

Luo Feng suppressed his shock, gazing at the shallow seawater in Yanhuang Ridge.

He realized that the mass suicide of Japanese was related to this inexplicable great tidal wave.

"Deep-seated hatred and despair, even Hattori Hanzo and Shangquan Xingang died with such feelings. It's hard to imagine what drove them to such despair?" King Biancheng observed the similar expressions of despair around, shivering despite his mastery of Martial Arts Divine.

The lingering resentment and death qi were so intense that even they, the Netherworld Palace kings, dared not absorb it, fearing backlash.

"It's simple."

The indifferent words reached everyone's ears, causing the five kings of Netherworld Palace to tremble inwardly.

"Because Japan was destroyed."

Majestic and profound, as though the center of the world, the Supreme Taoist appeared and spoke shocking words: "Last night, I witnessed Qingyu Daoist Master and the Sword God's battle, attempting to thwart Qing Yu from acquiring the End of the World Demon Energy, but didn't expect Qing Yu had another plan.

His other self smuggled into Japan, destroyed a nation to lure Chi You's Banner to descend upon Japan.

Today's tidal wave stems from Japan's sinking. Shangquan Xingang and Hattori Hanzo, despairing upon hearing Japan's destruction, desperately committed suicide, accompanying their country in the grave."

The calm narration seemed simple, but the underlying bloodshed sent chills through everyone's hearts.

"Destroying a nation, truly······" Even King Biancheng was stunned by Qing Yu's grand scheme.

"Chilling." King Qin Guang added.

He looked directly at the Supreme Taoist, bluntly inquiring: "With such grand plans, how much will Qing Yu's power expand? Supreme Taoist, why have you come here to explain this to us?"
