Chapter 645: Chapter 294: Beheading the Great Witch Sacrifice_3

Under this dreadful assault, in a span of just a few breaths, the first defensive line at the riverbank was breached. The two earth platforms that formed the second defensive line, each manned by thousands of defenders, were also effortlessly slaughtered to the last.

The third defensive line further ahead, a large camp, was now penetrated by that dazzling yellow light as well. At this moment, screams of agony resounded within the camp, snapping the Great Witch Priest out of his reverie with their piercing wails.

“You dare, you bastard!”

Witnessing his own army being easily slaughtered, the Great Witch Priest was filled with a mix of shock and fury.

Shocked that the Chu people had so audaciously flouted the rules, breaking the tacit understanding that neither side would harm ordinary soldiers should both sides possess an Inborn Grandmaster.

And filled with rage that the enemy could be so dishonorable, deploying an Inborn Grandmaster right at the start, catching him off guard. Not only had it resulted in a great number of casualties, but the defensive lines that had taken months to build had also become effectively defunct.

Watching the Chu army swarm through the gap torn open by that yellow light, sweeping in from all sides, ripping through the two foremost defensive lines in just a few moments.

The eyes of the Great Witch Priest were aflame.

He knew that with the influx of countless Chu soldiers, the impending defeat of the first two line defense of the Great Changhe Army, now devoid of their defensive advantage, was only a matter of time.

It’s an army of twenty thousand strong.

In the current state of the Great Changhe, even if they squeezed every potential out of the country, the count of men above the age of twelve would not exceed two hundred thousand.

Losing a tenth of their forces in an instant, virtually amputating an arm of the Great Changhe, how could such a tragic loss not bring heartache?

And the cause of all this…

“It’s all because of you!”

The Great Witch Priest, looking at the figure within the yellow light, had his eyes flashing with bitter hatred.

Perhaps others might be blinded by the dazzling yellow light and not be able to see the figure clearly. But thanks to his cultivation and strength, he could see clearly. The figure in the yellow light was a burly young man.

Although he was puzzled, as the appearance of the young man was unfamiliar and did not match any known Inborn Grandmasters in Chu State.

But the fact remained that the man was slaughtering his people, breaking the original tacit agreement. The Great Witch Priest was clear about that.

“Fine, fine, fine. If you Chu people want to be so reckless, then after this battle, this old man will pay a visit to Chu State.

Killing people? Is that all?

If you dare to kill my tribesmen without any shame, I will massacre your Chu people in the same way.

I’d like to see who can kill more!”

Watching the soldiers slaughtered swiftly in the front camp, the quickly crumbling Great Changhe Army, the Great Witch priest could no longer restrain himself.

While grinding his teeth in fury, he soared into the air, rushing towards that yellow light.

Although he could infer from the enemy’s series of moves that the latter’s strength was far superior, even after killing over a thousand men, the might of the man did not seem to diminish.

But both of them were Inborn Grandmasters, and he had an army at his disposal. The Great Witch Priest did not believe that he would lose to his opponent.

Even if he truly stood no chance, at this point, if he didn’t want the third line of defense to be breached as well and lose another ten thousand troops, he had no choice but to step up.

Though he had already planned to pay a visit to Chu State after the battle, it would only be after this great war.

In this crucial moment, every bit of loss lessened, every brave warrior of the Chilih tribe saved, was beneficial.

However, though such thoughts were sound in theory, they were far from practical.

When the Great Witch Priest advanced on the yellow light and engaged the enemy, his expression changed drastically, realizing that his assumptions were all wrong.

Boom!

With a ferocious gust of wind from a punch approaching and under the brilliant yellow light, the six-winged golden beetle created by the external martial arts body of the Great Witch Priest hadn’t even talked about pouncing on the enemy when he was counter-attacked, and a wing was broken by a single punch.

Although the six-winged beetle pounced fiercely, tearing off a large piece of yellow light and making the yellow glow surrounding the enemy fade significantly.

But seizing this opportunity, the enemy attacked with several punches in quick succession, completely disregarding his own defense, solely focusing on aggressive attacks against the golden beetle.

Clink! Clink! Clink!

In the blink of an eye, the sound of metal clashing rang out.

The Great Witch Priest manipulated the beetle transformed from his martial arts external body, vigorously attacking the formidable foe before him.

No matter how his beetle tore and bit, aside from tearing apart the circle of yellow light surrounding his foe, when it bit into the opponent’s body, it was like hitting solid metal.

Beyond breaking the opponent’s skin and leaving a few minor wounds, it could not cause much damage.

After a round of combat, the Great Witch Priest found himself unable to split his opponent into pieces as he had planned using his martial arts external body.

Instead, he realized that the beetle, his external manifestation, had all its wings plucked off and even its sharp tooth was forcefully torn off. It was a pathetic sight.

The external martial arts body was connected to his soul. The damage it suffered consequently affected both the body and soul of the Great Witch Priest.

But that was not the worst of it.

As an Inborn Grandmaster, his True Qi was connected to Heaven and Earth. Perhaps a couple of cycles of True Qi rotation within the body could heal his injuries swiftly.

What truly terrified him was the formidable strength behind his opponent’s fist that shattered his external martial arts body.

And the flexible yellow light over his opponent’s body.

“You are not a martial artist!”

As the Divine Palace’s Great Witch Priest, a culmination of thousands of years of inheritance, he immediately recognized that the yellow light surrounding his opponent was not a result of an external martial arts body. Instead, it reminded him of the rumored Immortal Daoist techniques.

Upon being exposed, Huang Xuan paused slightly. Being emotionally detached, he did not bother to respond to his opponent.

He merely gave the Great Witch Priest a cold glance, then with a single leap and relying on his steel-like physique, he hurled a punch that carried the weight of a thousand pounds, engulfed in the yellow light created by his magical power.

Witnessing this scene, the Great Witch Priest, who had previously suffered heavy losses, instinctively flinched and did not dare to face the punch head-on.

With a grim expression, he ordered his badly mauled external beetle to charge forward to intercept the attack while he hastily retreated, attempting to avoid the brunt of the assault.

Faced with an opponent who had the upper hand over him and the suspicious identity of an immortal Dao cultivator, he felt the urge to flee after repeated setbacks.

As the spiritual pillar of the Chilih tribe, he could not afford to die here. That would be as catastrophic as the sky collapsing upon the entire Chilih tribe.

It was better to retreat temporarily to preserve one’s life.

Revenge could be exacted from Chu State in the future for today’s grudge.

That was the wisest choice.

However, the Great Witch Priest’s focus was entirely on his powerful opponent, Huang Xuan. He failed to notice the silhouette closing in on him, hidden among the throng of Chu State soldiers who had broken through the defense and were rushing forward.

A silhouette had, seemingly unnoticed, approached him to within less than thirty feet.

Boom!

Caught off guard, a thunderous explosion sounded next to his ear.

The Great Witch Priest, who was in the midst of a hasty retreat, was instantly dumbstruck. His vision went black, and his ears rang dizzily. His airborne body fell straight down, heading for the earth.

Before he could even hit the ground, the flat earth beneath him suddenly shook. A sharp stone thorn broke through the grassy ground, heading straight for the falling Great Witch Priest.

Splatter!

Amid a dull sound, blood splattered.

The sharp stone thorn pierced directly through the heart of the Great Witch Priest, impaling half of his body, skewering him atop the stone thorn.

Whoosh!

Following that, a flash of yellow light streaked by. In the moment the stone thorn impaled the Great Witch Priest, it arrived in front of him, circled around his neck, and an old head was sent flying towards the ground.

From afar, Lu Yuan, observing this scene, withdrew his manipulating hands and a hint of a smile formed on his face.

A perfectly executed surprise attack finally came to a conclusion.

The target, the Chilih tribe’s Great Witch Priest, was dead.
