Chapter 610: The Might of the Blood Killing Order
"Double Sun Burning Wind!"
Two golden-red Light Balls spiraled, radiating terrifying heat, locking onto the white man standing before her.
That Esper's expression changed slightly; he waved his hands continuously, and one after another, massive rock barriers rose from the ground, each barrier exuding a formidable aura.
"A futile effort!"
Luo Yexi pointed her fingers like a sword and slashed forward; the golden-red Light Balls suddenly shrank and merged into her fingertips. As she slashed her hand forward, countless golden-red Sword Qi swept out from her fingertips, aimed directly at that Esper.
The Sword Qi looked plain and unadorned, not even stirring up a speck of dust, yet it made the man feel a fatal crisis. Before the golden-red Sword Qi, the rock barriers crumbled like paper, unable to even hinder the Sword Qi for a moment.
"Earth Armor!"
Facing the Sword Qi rushing toward him, the Esper gritted his teeth and pushed his Supernatural Ability to the limit; countless rocks floated up from the ground, covering his body to form a suit of hard armor.
The Sword Qi struck the armor, emitting the sound of clashing metal. Under the bombardment of the Sword Qi, the man retreated repeatedly, and fragments of stone constantly splattered from the Earth Armor on his body.
"Block it for me!" the man roared, eyes wide, blue veins popping out on his forehead.
A layer of earthy-yellow light spread across the Earth Armor, forcibly resisting the cutting of the Sword Qi.
After the Sword Qi vanished, the Earth Armor crumbled simultaneously. The man retreated several steps, opened his mouth, and spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning deathly pale.
"A breakthrough on the spot, truly good luck. However, next time, it won't be so easy." Seeing her move blocked, Luo Yexi was somewhat astonished, then a flash of realization crossed her eyes.
Seeing golden-red radiance rise from Luo Yexi's body once more, the man's expression changed drastically. His breakthrough had been achieved by forcibly pushing his limits in a desperate situation. If he did not consolidate it in time, not only might his strength drop again, but he might even suffer extremely serious sequelae.
Immediately, he shouted loudly: "I concede!"
"Tsk, consider yourself smart!"
Hearing the man concede, Luo Yexi muttered with some dissatisfaction, and the golden-red light on her body began to dissipate.
After shouting his concession, the man jumped off the ring without looking back and squeezed through the crowd to run away. Jerry, who had just woken up nearby, immediately ordered several people to chase after him, to prevent anyone from interfering with him as he consolidated his strength.
Compared to gaining a Half-step Nascent Soul expert, losing one match was not a loss, but a huge harvest. After all, this person's Half-step Nascent Soul realm was broken through solidly by his own strength, rather than being forcibly broken through using external forces like them, which would have caused him to lose the possibility of going further. He had the potential to go further and reach the Nascent Soul Realm; S. H. I. E. L. D. would naturally provide him with protection.
"That person was just too cunning, to actually concede like that." Luo Yexi, who had walked down from the ring, said with some resentment.
"How many people who can reach Golden Core Peak by their own strength are fools?" Lingyun chuckled and said. "He just broke through; if you were to knock him down a rank again, his life would be ruined. Taking a step back for the sake of the future is not something incomprehensible."
"Hmph, consider him lucky." Luo Yexi muttered, then said no more.
Just as the Peak Martial Duel on the island was becoming increasingly intense, outside, a layer of blood-colored clouds was gathering.
Once the Blood Killing Order was issued, the experts of the Guardian Clan hidden in the shadows immediately emerged, and upon emerging, they stirred up the winds and clouds of the entire world.
The Pope of the Holy See was attacked by a mysterious expert; if not for the peerless Array left behind by the Angels within the Holy See, the Pope would have died at that expert's hands long ago. The final result was that the Pope used the remaining peerless Array to repel that expert.
However, repelling this expert was not without a price. The Saint Domain where the Pope resided was almost completely slaughtered by the mysterious expert, and countless high-level experts were lost. Even those hidden old monsters in their Holy See were killed by the dozen. Although the Pope activated the ancient Magic Array hidden in the cathedral to repel the expert, he himself was severely injured and had to go into seclusion to recover. Most importantly, when that expert left, he actually sacrificed an Array-Breaking Shuttle, striking a gap in the Magic Array, causing the entire Magic Array's power to be greatly damaged, nearly collapsing.
After one battle, the Holy See lost at least twenty percent of its strength; if one added the completely annihilated Crusaders, these blows would be enough to keep the Holy See from catching its breath for at least twenty years.
At the same time, the Dark Council also suffered an attack from a nameless expert. Their Council Leader did not have the Pope's good luck and was directly blasted into slag on the spot by that expert.
However, the Dark Council was only a loose alliance; they would only join forces to fight the enemy when facing the Holy See. In normal circumstances, they did not gather together. Therefore, this time when the Dark Council's Council Leader was blasted to death, the only thing destroyed along with him was the faction belonging to the Council Leader.
However, the Council Leader possessed multiple holy relics of the Dark Council, and these holy relics were all forcibly blasted apart by that expert. In a sense, the Dark Council's losses were even more tragic than the Holy See's.
S. H. I. E. L. D. also suffered an attack from a mysterious expert and likewise suffered heavy losses. In this battle, Nick was also forced to reveal his trump card, a Fuhuo Yinneng that could only be used once in a lifetime.
If not for this ability, Nick might not even have known how he died. Now, whenever he thought of that dagger that appeared silently from the Void, easily broke through his Yinying Yinneng, and severed his head, fear would involuntarily well up in Nick's heart.
Of course, it was not just the three factions like the Holy See that were attacked by mysterious experts; every Dark World faction that had made a move against Huaxia was visited by mysterious experts, and their experts suffered heavy losses.
Among them, the one with the most tragic losses should be considered R Country. In other countries, there was usually only one mysterious expert, but the mysterious experts who appeared in R Country numbered three in total. These three people simultaneously swept through the factions in R Country that had ambitions against Huaxia, almost wiping out all their experts.
For a time, all major factions were on edge. Although they knew this was retaliation from Huaxia, they had no choice but to grit their teeth and swallow this bitter fruit. The entire Dark World was trembling under the terrifying Blood Killing Order.
