ETERNAL MARTIAL EMPEROR, VOLUME 8 - Season 22 Episode 27

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Suddenly, a strange sound came from the battlefield, as though something was about to break through the ice and return to the world!

Many Execution Guards shifted their gazes towards Su Zimo who was frozen in the torrent.

“The flames haven’t extinguished?”

!!

“What secret skill is that? To think that it can defend against the greater divine powers of so many of us?”

Many Execution Guards noticed something unusual as well and frowned.

Commander Shi said coldly, “No matter what secret skill it is, at most, we’ll release another round of divine powers and secret skills. How can he defend against all of us alone? Even through attrition, we can exhaust him to death!”

Buzz! Buzz!

Cracks appeared on the ice layer with rumbling fog.

The boundless ice was about to melt!

Many Execution Guards channeled their Essence Spirits once more and condensed their divine powers and secret skills, prepared to attack.

Right then, beneath the thin layer of ice, the four balls of flames around Su Zimo spun and collided rapidly, emitting a blinding light!

A shuddering aura spread and flames surged into the skies!

The ice on the battlefield melted instantly and turned into a surging torrent once more.

The Caturadhi Dao Fire was condensed!

Gulp! Gulp!

Under the envelopment of the Dao Fire, the torrent surged in the blink of an eye and the water surface bubbled with steam!

Under the shroud of the fog, Su Zimo’s figure was faintly visible and became extremely mysterious.

From freezing to boiling, it only took two to three breaths.

Under the surging torrent and the high-temperature steam, many Execution Guards felt suffocated and drenched in sweat in an extremely uncomfortable manner.

“Attack!”

Commander Shi shouted.

Su Zimo’s expression was calm as a spirit consciousness flame burst forth from his glabella and entered the Caturadhi Dao Fire.

Phew!

The ball of flames exploded instantly and spread around the battlefield like a hurricane!

The torrent on the battlefield evaporated instantly!

The 99 Execution Guards fell into a sea of flames!

The Execution Guards thought that Su Zimo was completely frozen and gathered in the vicinity. None of them were spared when the Pancadhi Dao Fire spread!

“Ah! Ah! Ahhhh!”

A series of tragic cries sounded from the battlefield.

The first ones to fall were the Level 8 Earth Essence realm Execution Guards.

The power released by the Pancadhi Dao Fire had already exceeded the limits of what they could withstand. Even if the Execution Guards condensed any divine powers or secret skills, it would be difficult for them to defend against the damage of the Pancadhi Dao Fire.

Under the incineration of the Pancadhi Dao Fire, the Black Gold Feather Armor was burned red.

The flesh of many Execution Guards sizzled and emitted thick green smoke when they were burned.

Some of the Black Gold Feather Armors even melted into boiling molten metal that stuck to the Execution Guards and could not be shaken off no matter how they rolled.

One after another, figures burning with flames fled in all directions with pained expressions, wanting to extinguish the flames on their bodies.

However, the Execution Guards did not manage to run far before they could not hold on and were burned to ashes, leaving only their Execution Sabers on the ground.

Before long, close to 40 of the 99 Execution Guards were burned to death by the Pancadhi Dao Fire!

Such a tragic scene caused an uproar!

Be it the cultivators in the vicinity or the cultivators watching from Coiling Dragon Mountain Range, all of them were shocked!

Prince Yuan Zuo’s eyes widened with wrath. His body swayed slightly and he almost crushed his teeth.

“This…”

The four Heaven Immortals could not help but bounce up from their chairs and look at the flames on the battlefield in disbelief.

That lethality and destructive power was way too terrifying!

Nearly 40 Execution Guards died in the sea of flames instantly and even more were severely injured!

The remaining dozens of Execution Guards relied on their higher cultivation realms and robust Essence Qi to release divine powers and secret skills repeatedly—they managed to survive temporarily.

However, some of the Level 9 Earth Essence realm Execution Guards did not have strong physiques and bloodlines. Their flesh was split open by the Dao Fire and their organs were charred black.

Even if they could survive, their bodies would be completely crippled!

Right now, there were only around 40 Execution Guards with combat strength on the battlefield.

The others were either buried in the sea of flames, severely injured or crippled.

A series of wails could be heard from the sea of flames.

This scene had a huge impact on everyone.

The Execution Guards represented the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom and were in charge of punishment and killing. They were formed by the top Earth Immortals and Heaven Immortals.

But now, not only did that fire severely injure the Execution Guards, it even seemed to have burned the face of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom into pieces!

In the valley, the cultivators watching could sense the tragic state of the Execution Guards even more clearly when they heard the tragic cries on the battlefield.

Even paragons such as Prince Yun Lei and Princess Scarlet Rainbow had pale expressions at the moment.

Put in the same situation, they might face difficulties escaping unscathed from such terrifying flames as well!

“Set up the formation, set up the formation!”

Commander Shi was covered in dust from the burns and was still roaring loudly. His voice had already turned extremely hoarse after inhaling a large amount of dust.

“As long as the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi is isolated, the flames will naturally extinguish!”

Another Execution Guard commander shouted as well.

Commander Shi and the others slapped their storage bags and took out sets of array flags, scattering them onto the battlefield.

Above Coiling Dragon Mountain Range, Lone Star’s expression softened when he saw that and he said hurriedly, “Your Highness, don’t worry. The remaining Execution Guards are all top-tier experts.”

“Although they’re all burned, once we set up the Black Light Essence Severing Formation, we can reverse the situation and capture that lad alive!”

Prince Yuan Zuo’s expression was dark. His initially clenched fists relaxed slowly as he nodded. “Not bad. Although the power of this flame secret skill is great, the toll on this lad is definitely unimaginable!”

“Your Highness is wise!”

Lone Star said, “At that time, be it in melee combat or spirit consciousness fights, the Execution Guards will have an absolute advantage.”

On the battlefield.

“It’s the Black Light Essence Severing Formation of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom,” Princess Scarlet Rainbow had a grim expression.

“When set up, this array formation can isolate Heaven and Earth Essence Qi. At that time, one can only use spirit consciousness secret skills or melee combat,”

Prince Yun Lei said, “Although this flame is powerful, it will be useless.”

Princess Scarlet Rainbow frowned slightly. “Why is that person standing on the spot without any reaction? Why isn’t he preventing the Execution Guards from setting up the formation?”

“The power of that flame secret skill earlier on must have taken a huge toll on him,”

Prince Yun Lei said, “I reckon that this person is already at the end of his rope and is extremely weak, unable to fight anymore. Sigh, he can be considered as a rare paragon with just this flame secret skill. It’s truly a pity that he’s going to be destroyed in the hands of the Execution Guards.”

One after another, array flags tore through the air and surrounded Su Zimo.

He did not move at all, as though he had indeed lost his combat strength. He did not attack to destroy the formation set up by Commander Shi and the others.

He was like a bystander, watching quietly as Commander Shi and the others dug the array flags into the ground and surrounded him.

Su Zimo’s expression was calm as he watched Commander Shi and the others enter the formation. Gradually, an imperceptible mocking look appeared in his eyes.
