Chapter 678 Li Xiaotian’s Madness

The terrifying anomalies that filled the sky and earth shocked everyone in Yanzhou.

"What happened? Why have so many terrifying existences descended at once?"

"Is the world finally complete? Are the supreme powerhouses emerging to wage war?"

"What exactly has happened? Why are the supreme powerhouses gathered in Yanzhou?"

"Is Yanzhou under invasion? Who is the enemy?"

At this moment, even the slumbering Heaven-level powerhouses in Yanzhou were awakened.

Originally, as the world became more complete, they were not far from naturally awakening, but today, so many terrifying auras had descended, waking them all up.

However, they could only sense the arrival of supreme powerhouses but could not send out their divine senses to investigate the truth.

After all, the world did not permit it, and they were not supreme powerhouses. They could not withstand the backlash of the world, so they dared not make any moves.

When they tried to contact the overlords guarding their sects to understand the truth, they found that no one responded.

Because on this day, all the overlords of Yanzhou were not in their sects.

Those from Great Qin were either fighting in the capital or guarding the demon forbidden zones.

Of those from the Desolate Hall, excluding the deceased, four were still fleeing.

"Save us, supreme powerhouses!"

Huang Wudi and the others also shouted at the eyes in the sky, their gazms filled with hope.

"We participated in the war between humans and demons in ancient times and contributed to the human race. We beg the supreme powerhouses to save us!"

Huang Wudi and the others shouted.

That's right, they had indeed contributed to the human race in ancient times. To become overlords, they were all influential figures of their respective eras in ancient times.

They had also lived passionate lives in the martial world, upholding justice and striking against injustice.

They had also been injured and fought for the weak.

But after reawakening, their minds had changed.

They felt alienated from this current era, they began to prioritize their own interests, and they became fearful.

Because they felt that the human race they had protected was no longer there.

The current human race was unfamiliar to them.

Because the current human race did not know how to respect the strong, did not adhere to the rules of the weak worshipping the strong, and did not revere the inheritance of cultivation techniques of various sects.

An ordinary person dared to comment on various strong individuals online and exchange cultivation techniques of various sects.

Because the current human race advocated for equality for all, pursued freedom, and promoted sharing.

A mere Great Qin dared to share the cultivation techniques of various sects and advocated for universal cultivation.

This removed the barriers to cultivation and demystified the strong, which made them, the ancient powerhouses, feel like they had no dignity.

But they failed to understand that the current human race was passed down from generation to generation since ancient times.

The human race was still the human race; they had simply become enlightened.

The current human race also respected the strong, but while respecting them, they would also scrutinize and judge them.

They did not blindly respect; they only respected those who were worthy of respect.

They would use the strong as their goals, nurturing ambitions to surpass them.

Therefore, they did not understand, they hated, and they feared.

An ant dared to comment on an overlord and even harbored the ambition to catch up and surpass that overlord. How dare they?!

This is why they were furious and wanted to destroy Great Qin. It was precisely because of Great Qin's existence that they felt everything was unreasonable.

Huang Wudi and the others continued to shout and beg for help.

But the giant eyes in the sky showed no reaction, and even the terrifying figures on the horizon remained motionless.

They simply watched quietly.

"Why!!!"

Finally, as Huang Wudi was killed by Li Xiaotian, he let out a roar of unwillingness before dying.

At this moment, the world fell silent.

Li Xiaotian had killed all the enemy overlords. In Yanzhou, there were hundreds of sects, and seventeen of them had overlords. But now, only four remained.

In one day, eighty percent of Yanzhou's overlords perished.

"Long live Great Qin! Glory to the Dragon King!"

"Long live Great Qin! Glory to Lord Li!"

"Long live my king, my king is invincible!"

At this moment, the entire land of Yanzhou echoed with thunderous cheers.

Most of the voices belonged to ordinary people.

They emerged from their homes and celebrated in the streets.

There was no fear, only excitement and joy.

"Amitabha, so that's how it is. It should be so!"

In the west of Yanzhou, Ananda Bodhisattva, with his thousand-zhang tall Dharma appearance, clasped his hands together, his Buddhist chants melodious.

"Indeed."

On the East Sea, among the seven majestic figures, someone uttered a word of praise.

"The Divine Kingdom should be like this."

In Europe, a young girl lying on a golden lion murmured, looking in another direction.

That direction was towards the Vatican City. At this moment, a figure enveloped in holy light above the holy city was looking in the direction of Yanzhou, his eyes filled with contemplation.

"The Divine Kingdom should be like this?"

The figure murmured. He had naturally heard the girl's words. He looked down at the holy city beneath his feet.

Everyone there wore smiles, full of kindness, free from illness or disaster.

But outside the holy city were countless refugees, dilapidated houses, sickness, and depravity. They swarmed towards the holy city, their gazes devout, filled with hope.

Was it hope or desire?

The figure fell silent, and became lost.

"Citizens of Great Qin, we of Great Qin have always persuaded with virtue, repaid kindness with kindness, and repaid hatred with hatred. We advocate for the magnanimity of a great nation!"

"Those who offend Great Qin will be punished!"

Just as the supreme powerhouses in the heavens and earth were preparing to leave, Li Xiaotian, who was high in the sky, suddenly spoke. His voice spread to every corner of Yanzhou.

Seeing this, those supreme powerhouses stopped, some with curiosity.

At this moment, Li Xiaotian held a stack of lists in his hand.

"In this battle, to protect our homeland, countless heroes sacrificed themselves. They included ordinary people, martial artists, and ancient powerhouses."

"Great Qin shall build a Shrine of Heroes to welcome back the souls of the heroes, for all the people to revere!"

"Heroes, we will never forget!"

Li Xiaotian's voice continued. At this moment, the entire Yanzhou listened quietly.

"We will never forget!!"

On the ground, countless people of Great Qin roared, their eyes filled with tears.

"However, while heroes sacrificed themselves for us in this battle, there were also traitors who harmed Great Qin in order to protect themselves!"

"Citizens of Great Qin, tell me, how should we deal with these traitors?"

Li Xiaotian shouted. The lists in his hand contained the names of various forces that had sacrificed themselves for Great Qin and those that had betrayed Great Qin in this battle.

"Kill them!!!"

The masses roared, their hatred boundless.

At this moment, the expressions of countless people in various parts of Great Qin changed drastically.

Even the supreme powerhouses in the heavens and earth were somewhat surprised, even astonished.

Today, so many overlords had died, wasn't that enough?

"Yes! Kill them! The people of Great Qin avenge their grievances!"

Li Xiaotian said, and then, his killing intent reappeared.

Had the death of eighty percent of the overlords been enough? No, it was far from enough!

Besides the overlords, there were also those Emperor-level martial artists! And the sects and forces that did not have overlords guarding them.

They had betrayed Great Qin, how could they be let off just like that?!

If there was a first time, there would be a second time!

After all, the Heaven-level powerhouses had not yet awakened. If they did, would there be a second war?

At that time, would those who had betrayed them betray them a second time?

Li Xiaotian sneered, his eyes filled with killing intent. He flew directly to the edge of the East Sea.

This was the southernmost part of Great Qin, while the capital was the northernmost.

"Soul Refining Sect, the war began, and the Soul Refining Sect actively defected to the Desolate Hall, ambushing and killing the Great Qin army stationed there. Do you admit your guilt?"

Li Xiaotian roared. Without waiting for a response, he grabbed with his giant hand, and three Emperor-level martial artists appeared.

He only targeted Emperor-level experts, because only Emperor-level martial artists were decisive factors. As for those below Emperor-level, they would all be investigated and held accountable afterward.

"Spare us! We were also forced to do it, Dragon King, spare us!!"

In Li Xiaotian's giant hand, the three Emperor-level martial artists knelt and begged for mercy.

But Li Xiaotian ignored them and continued to move.

"Xiaotian Sect, you took advantage of the war to declare yourselves kings and murdered hundreds of teachers from the Martial Arts Academy. Do you admit your guilt?"

With another grab of his giant hand, the Emperor-level experts in his hand increased to seven.

"Thunderfire Sect, Hundred Refining Sect, Poison Sect, do you admit your guilt?"

As Li Xiaotian's giant body moved from south to north, the figures in his giant hand grew more numerous.

Ten minutes later, he arrived at the battlefield.

This time, he did not announce their crimes. He directly reached out and grabbed all the enemy Emperor-level experts on the battlefield.

"What, what is this, young friend Li? He wouldn't really kill all these people, would he?"

Dao Xuan trembled, shocked. He glanced at the eyes in the sky and could feel a trace of anger in the pressure of the heavens and earth.

Because Li Xiaotian's giant palm held more than six hundred Emperor-level martial artists!

It could be said that if all these Emperor-level martial artists died, then more than half, or even seventy to eighty percent, of the sects in Yanzhou would disappear.

This was too ruthless.

For Yanzhou, it was a devastating blow! It damaged the foundation!

Even the death of overlords didn't matter much to Yanzhou, because as long as there were enough Emperor-level martial artists, the number of overlords would eventually be replenished.

But if the Emperor-level experts all died, from King-level to Emperor-level, and then to Overlord-level, it would take hundreds of years to replenish them.

If these Emperor-level experts all died, Yanzhou would not only be the weakest among all the states, but it would also be inferior to many demon forbidden zones.

At this moment, the expressions of all the powerhouses present in the Great Qin capital changed. For the traitors, for the enemies,

To be honest, they deserved to die!

Even if Li Xiaotian killed all of them, it wouldn't be wrong.

The key was that there were too many of them!

At this moment, there were already over seven hundred.

In the face of Li Xiaotian's peak overlord strength, no Emperor-level expert could escape.

"Stop quickly, someone go and persuade him!"

Dao Xuan murmured, his forehead covered in cold sweat.

Jian Chen, standing beside him, opened his mouth, his expression grim. Even though he was decisive and ruthless, at this moment, he felt that Li Xiaotian was killing too many people.

This was playing with fire!

Couldn't he feel the anger of the supreme powerhouses at this moment?

If the supreme beings were angered, even if you were a peak overlord, what good would it do? You would surely die!

At this moment, Li Xiaotian stopped. The number of overlords in his hand was eight hundred and twenty-three.

And he hadn't even dealt with Myriad Beast Mountain yet.

"Boom!"

In the sky, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled.

The eyes in the sky, at this moment, actually showed a hint of emotion, a hint of anger.

"I declare that you are all sentenced to death!"

Li Xiaotian said, his eyes icy cold.

"Enough!"

Just then, a roar echoed through the heavens and earth. In an instant, lightning flashed, thunder roared, and the space in the sky shattered numerous times.

The supreme powerhouse of Yanzhou, the Heavenly Sword Master, spoke!
