Revelation of the Way of Heaven

Chapter 391 Qiongqi

"Eternal Vine Calamity!" Upon seeing this, the Wood Priest also unleashed his secret technique. Countless blood-red vines emerged from the stone sphere, then pierced through the entire sphere and emerged from the other side. This continued uninterrupted for nearly a minute until the stone sphere was completely surrounded. At this moment, a red light rose from the blood vines, transforming into a mysterious sealing pattern. The sealing pattern was then deeply imprinted onto the stone sphere. After the sealing pattern was imprinted on the stone sphere, the stone sphere began to shrink. In less than a minute, the volume of the stone sphere had shrunk by half. The stones on the stone sphere had already been compressed into dust, which spilled out from the gaps in the blood vines. As for the Qiongqi at the center of the stone sphere, the pressure it endured was unimaginable.

After doing all this, the wooden priest couldn't help but hunch over and gasp for breath, clearly the move had consumed a lot of his spirit and spiritual power.

"Once trapped by the seal of this Eternal Vine Calamity, even a god would find it difficult to escape," the Wood Priest said, panting heavily.

"You're right, but only if you can truly trap me." Qiongqi's voice suddenly appeared in the Wood Priest's ear, and then Qiongqi's body appeared in the air.

The Wood Priest's expression changed drastically. Before he could react, Qiongqi shouted, "The Ice Prison of Resentment!" In the blink of an eye, the Wood Priest was enveloped in boundless cold air, and an ice prison glowing with blue light trapped him firmly inside.

At the same time, the Gold Priest waved his staff, and a silver waterfall suddenly rose from the ground in front of Qiongqi. The waterfall was full of molten metal mixed with deadly poison, and it crashed towards Qiongqi like a giant silver wave. The Water Priest also waved his staff at the same time and quickly chanted an ancient incantation.

"Secret Technique: Return of All Origins to Nothingness." The Water Priest shouted. This skill can draw away all the moisture in the air. Without moisture, no matter how strong Qiongqi is, he cannot use his ice skills at will.

The metallic heat wave manifested as countless tentacles that slammed violently onto Qiongqi's body, but with a "crack," Qiongqi suddenly shattered, turning into countless glittering ice crystals that dissipated into the air.

"That's quite a skill." Qiongqi's voice and body reappeared beside the Water Priest. "But you've probably forgotten who I am. The Land of Return to Nothingness is my endless realm." As he spoke, he once again swung his blue tiger claws.

Having just unleashed a secret technique, the Water Priest was still in a weakened state and unable to resist. In just a moment, like the Wood Priest, he was trapped in Qiongqi's haunting ice prison.

With its incredible skills and terrifying strength, Qiongqi moved among the five high priests. Even the combined might of the five most powerful priests in Crescent City could not stop it. In less than half an hour, all five were firmly trapped in its lingering ice prison.

"Can you feel the endless resentment? This is the funeral I have prepared for you." Qiongqi was full of pride. Thousands of years of hatred had been washed away in one day. From today onwards, no one could stop the advance of the demon race. Thinking of the future scene of the demon army galloping across the land of Huaxu, it couldn't help but roar to the sky. At the same time, endless killing intent was revealed in its dark blue eyes.

At this moment, without the assistance of the five high priests, the five demon kings easily ascended the city walls with their demon beasts. The city gates collapsed under the continuous assault of the armored rhinoceroses, and the warriors of the Blood Knights fell from the sky one after another. The entire war had completely turned in favor of the demon race, and the fall of New Moon City was inevitable.

Trapped in the ice prison, the Golden Priest gazed at the devastation of Crescent City and closed his eyes in anguish. He always prided himself on his composure and unwavering resolve, but the thought that the Blood Witch Clan's current tragedy was entirely his own doing still brought tears of regret to his eyes.

The other priests also looked disheartened and had no choice but to accept the reality before them.

After enjoying the expressions of the five priests with satisfaction, Qiongqi sneered and said, "Then it's time to bury you, as a sacrifice for the return of our demon race." With that, it flapped its wings and flew into the air. It raised its tiger claws, and countless ice spikes as tall as a person quickly formed around it. With a swing of its claws, all the ice spikes would pierce the five priests on the ground, and the five priests would turn into dust along with the ice prison.

"We, the Blood Witches, revere your command. We will enjoy the favor of Heaven and uphold the Great Way. May you forever dwell in the light, shatter all delusions, and for all eternity, be free from delusion." The five priests closed their eyes in despair and recited the Blood Witch Clan's prayer.

"Flame Dragon Soars to the Sky!" A long shout rang out in the air, followed by a giant dragon burning with bluish-white flames that pierced through the sky obscured by dark clouds and rushed straight towards Qiongqi, which was suspended in mid-air. Behind the fire dragon, Qin Xiaochuan was riding Kaiming and swooping down towards the five priests on the ground.

As soon as Qin Xiaochuan approached the ground, he unleashed a Holy Flame Baptism. The raging flames instantly melted Qiongqi's ice prison, freeing the five priests. Just as Qiongqi hurriedly blocked Qin Xiaochuan's skill, dark clouds suddenly gathered in the sky again, with flashes of lightning. Then, a thick pillar of lightning descended from the sky and struck Qiongqi. It was Kaiming's skill—Thunderous Might.

"It's you, the Uncrowned One, you..." The Water Priest stared at Qin Xiaochuan's retreating figure, wanting to say something, but the rest of the words remained unsaid.

Qin Xiaochuan understood his meaning and said calmly, "I have met the Goddess Nuwa."

Qin Xiaochuan's words were like a bomb, creating endless ripples in the hearts of the five priests. Even though they had lived in Crescent City for hundreds of years, none of them had ever truly seen the legendary Goddess Nuwa. If what Qin Xiaochuan said was true, then Qin Xiaochuan was undoubtedly the one chosen by Goddess Nuwa, and that Goddess Nuwa had sent him to save them, and even the entire Crescent City.

The five priests remained silent, but Qin Xiaochuan broke the silence himself. "Leave this guy to me. You all go deal with the other demonic beasts and do your best to ensure the safety of the city's residents." His voice remained calm, and even as Crescent City was about to fall, this calmness gave people a strange sense of security, as if everything was under his control. That was the true demeanor of a king.

The water priest seemed to see the shadow of the previous Blood Witch King in him again, and he answered almost subconsciously, "Yes, Your Majesty."

"Uncrowned One, the Demon Lord Qiongqi's strength is extraordinary. I am willing to assist you," the Earth Priest said to Qin Xiaochuan from the other side. His skills were earth-attribute, naturally restraining Qiongqi's abilities. With the Earth Priest's help, Qin Xiaochuan could indeed be relieved of a lot of pressure.

But Qin Xiaochuan gently shook his head and calmly said, "No need. This is a war between me and it. I will deal with it myself. The residents of the city need you more now." As he spoke, he patted Kaiming, and Kaiming carried him into the sky, at the same height as Qiongqi.

The five priests on the ground stared at Qin Xiaochuan's figure, somewhat lost in thought.
