Chapter 610: Gods, Arriving One After Another

*Creak—creak—*

The teeth-aching sound intensified, finally becoming deafening.

The youth only felt his eardrums buzz, and sharp pain came. He instinctively raised his hand to cover his ears. It was precisely this action that saved his hearing.

Because as the shrill creaking sound became more dense and rapid, finally at the moment they overlapped—*BOOM!!! *

The hemisphere composed of countless monsters dressed in priest robes exploded.

Countless monsters were thrown into the sky, repelled into mid-air, or simply spun and collided with other monsters in mid-air.

The dense, terrifying screams of pain also erupted together.

But this was not over.

Following the explosion came the sudden disappearance of the hemispherical sphere, and—like raindrops... no, it could no longer be called raindrops, because they were too dense and eliminated the gaps, countless sword energies, like a white streak, were swung out.

*Swish! *

The sword energy cut through the air and disappeared from sight.

After a breath, the monsters in mid-air began to disintegrate.

In the hands of the Emperor who merged four paths into one, he could easily kill the Jianwen Emperor's killer move. Now, used by Li Miao, who had merged five paths into one and had two paths of Xuanlan, it was no longer the same.

These priests who had transformed into monsters could not take this move.

Drip.

Like a curtain of rain descending, first the first drop of blood rain fell, soaking into the ground. Then, within a few breaths, more scarlet raindrops fell one after another, along with scattered flesh and blood cut into thumb-sized pieces by the sword energy.

It was truly a good rain.

Suzaku Avenue, which had been dilapidated for decades, would likely become lush within a few months with the nourishment of this blood rain.

The youth was dizzy, and it took him a long time to come to his senses. He had forgotten to run away and just looked forward eagerly.

He wanted to know how the man who slaughtered so many mythical monsters single-handedly was doing, whether he would explode with a life-risking strike and then leave with a smile like the heroes in the stories?

The answer was naturally negative.

The heroic man in profound black just raised his hand to cover his mouth and coughed a few times, his complexion slightly paler, and then walked forward stepping on the blood without stopping.

Behind him, a luxurious sedan chair was carried by several swordsmen and Sai Seimei, who was shocked to the point of numbness, following Li Miao forward.

As for the other soldiers, officials, and warriors brought by Sai Seimei, Li Miao had no leisure to protect them together, and they had long since died in the attacks of the priests.

Fortunately, the Emperor's palace had already appeared in sight.

Walking along Suzaku Avenue for another cup of tea's time, they would reach the Emperor's palace. Nana-ko would accept Li Miao's investiture and the allegiance of the ministers there, officially succeeding as Emperor.

But, whether it was Sai Seimei or the other swordsmen, their expressions did not relax in the slightest; instead, they became even more solemn.

Those priests could not kill Li Miao.

This point was beyond doubt and indisputable.

The Shinto sect was the inheritance of Amaterasu Omikami. They must know what Li Miao, who had merged five paths into one, could do, and they must also know that those priests could not hurt Li Miao, let alone threaten Nana-ko, who was protected by Li Miao.

Then... what effect did the Shinto sect want to achieve by sending so many imperial descendant priests?

"If it's not testing Li Miao's limit, then it's paving the way for some kind of means... Enryaku-ji disappeared just like this. The Shinto sect's means are by no means limited to sending a group of imperial descendants and Divine Sword Art practitioners to die!"

"The next cup of tea's journey, and the period before entering the Emperor's palace and completing the investiture, is the real danger of today!"

Sai Seimei keenly noticed that after using the "Black Pole Pagoda," the hemispherical protective true energy that Li Miao had been maintaining disappeared, which exposed them to the air.

This meant that before Li Miao adjusted his state and raised his protective true energy, they were exposed to the Shinto sect.

This was very dangerous.

Sai Seimei looked at Li Miao's back, wanting to open his mouth to persuade him to walk slower and prepare before facing the means set by the Shinto sect... but after hesitating for a moment, he closed his mouth.

Did Li Miao look like someone who would listen to persuasion?

All he could do was check for omissions and fill in the gaps. ===== CHAPTER 611 =====
