Immortal Martial Emperor

’Xingtian is about to advance to the Fourth-Tribulation Corpse Realm? Hahaha, this means he’ll be able to summon Execution Corpse Warriors. He’ll be incredibly powerful!’

Hong Yu was overjoyed.

What did being a Fourth-Tribulation Execution Corpse mean?

Besides Xingtian undergoing another tribulation and his own strength increasing once more, making him no weaker than a Primordial Spirit Realm expert, the most important thing was that a Xingtian at the Fourth-Tribulation Corpse Realm could finally summon Execution Corpse Warriors.

Over the past several days, the number of Lost Souls Xingtian had absorbed wasn’t in the hundreds or thousands, but had reached the staggering number of ten thousand!

A full ten thousand Souls were absorbed by Xingtian.

Of course...

These Souls weren’t obtained by Hong Yu indiscriminately slaughtering the innocent.

They were accumulated by Xingtian through countless battles, as well as the massive group of Souls he obtained from the Soul-Refining Blood Pool after Hong Yu traveled to the Ice Kingdom.

Now, the War General Spirit Fruits condensed from these Souls were finally about to ripen!

Once the War General Spirit Fruits ripened and fell from their stems...

...it would be time for the ten thousand Execution Corpse Warriors under Xingtian’s command to be deployed!

"What’s going on? This thing actually triggered a thunder tribulation?" A look of astonishment crossed Xiahuang Ba’s face.

He never would have imagined that Xingtian would bring him so many shocks.

The Spirit Talisman that should have annihilated Xingtian with irresistible force had somehow lost its effect.

This was simply inconceivable, beyond all imagination and comprehension.

’His aura is getting stranger and stranger. No, I have to interrupt this thunder tribulation!’ A vicious look appeared in Xiahuang Ba’s eyes, and he began to attack relentlessly, trying to disturb Xingtian.

BOOM!

One punch after another.

Within just a few seconds, Xiahuang Ba had already struck Xingtian more than a dozen times, each punch incomparably powerful, containing supreme force.

THUD! THUD! THUD!

The invincible Fist Gang continuously slammed into Xingtian’s body.

But...

Xingtian’s physical defense was too terrifying; not a single trace of damage appeared.

’Th-this guy... is he a monster made of iron?’ The corner of Xiahuang Ba’s eye twitched.

He was completely speechless!

Xingtian’s defense left him feeling utterly helpless.

At the same time, the tribulation cloud in the sky had already taken shape.

CRACK!

A bolt of lightning as thick as a water bucket slammed down.

Xingtian didn’t flinch, allowing the Celestial Thunder to strike his body, remaining completely still.

This lightning continued for a full forty-eight bolts.

RUMBLE!

The Thunder in the sky seemed about to fall again but then retracted. The thunderclouds began to roil madly once more.

Until a certain moment!

ROAR!

A low roar suddenly rang out.

Xingtian’s eyes snapped open.

The dull, ashen color in his eyes had faded, replaced by a hint of clarity.

The Fourth-Tribulation Corpse Realm.

Xingtian clenched his fists, feeling immense power coursing through his palms. He grinned and looked at Xiahuang Ba. "Just now, was it you who said you wanted to kill my Big Brother?"

"Hm?"

Xiahuang Ba was taken aback.

Xingtian said, "Hong Yu. My Big Brother!"

"Hmph, it was I who said I would kill your Big Brother. Not only will I kill him, but I’ll also tear him to pieces and feed him to the dogs. What can you do about it?" Xiahuang Ba said domineeringly.

Xingtian shook his head. "I won’t do anything to *you* personally, however..." He paused, glancing toward Hong Yu as a murderous glint appeared in his eyes. "I will make all of you pay. I... will not allow anyone to harm my Big Brother!"

"Hmph, what’s the use of you not allowing it? Who do you think you are?"

Xiahuang Ba sneered.

Meanwhile...

Hong Yu, Feng Xue Xin, and Yeban could no longer withstand the successive waves of attacks from the experts and had been forced into a tight circle.

Xingtian glanced over and, with an Arrow Step, rushed in front of Hong Yu’s group.

The three of them were stunned.

Feng Xue Xin and Yeban both knew Xingtian. They looked at Hong Yu. "Why does Xingtian feel... different?"

"He just completed his tribulation. His strength has increased again!"

Hong Yu suppressed the excitement in his heart.

Xingtian glanced sideways at Hong Yu, grinning and revealing a simple, honest smile. "Big Brother, I broke through!"

"Excellent. Xingtian, do you have a way to deal with this group?" Hong Yu asked.

Xingtian nodded. "I can!"

"Hmph, you think the four of you can deal with us? You’re daydreaming!" Zhang Weilong sneered.

He had obviously heard the conversation between Hong Yu and Xingtian.

He thought the two of them were just bluffing.

With the powerful combination of forces on his side, victory was impossible for Hong Yu’s group unless an Unparalleled Genius Level expert appeared among them.

"There are so many of us. You think we’re afraid of you?" Zhang Weihu said coldly.

Xiahuang Dun grinned, licking the corner of his lips, a ferocious light in his eyes. "Just the few of you? You’re not even enough to get stuck in our teeth!"

"Are you planning to bully us with your numbers?" Hong Yu narrowed his eyes, his tone playful.

Xiahuang Dun said, "So what if we are? What can you do about it?"

"If you’ve got the guts, go find your own backup!"

"If you can’t find backup, you can only blame yourselves for being too pathetic. Today, none of you will be leaving this place!"

"That’s right! The spit from each of us alone would be enough to drown you!"

Xiahuang Ba and the others all sneered.

These one hundred-plus experts were by no means weak. Even the weakest among them had a Late-stage Primordial Core Realm cultivation.

Facing the menacing group of over a hundred people on Xiahuang Ba’s side, Hong Yu took a deep breath and confirmed again, "Are you all sure you want to bully us with your numbers? Don’t you find it shameful?"

"Hmph, if you’ve got the ability, you can bully us with numbers too."

"Since ancient times, winners become kings and losers are vilified. Who cares if you have more people or fewer?"

"If you know what’s good for you, get on your knees and surrender. Let us seal your cultivation, and maybe we’ll spare your lives!"

Xiahuang Ba and his men chimed in one after another.

They held the advantage in both numbers and peak combat power, and they didn’t believe Hong Yu’s group had any chance of turning the tables.

"Alright, since you’re so determined to bully us with numbers, then I have no choice but to..."

Hong Yu took a deep breath, drawing out his words, before suddenly grinning, revealing a cold smile. "Xingtian, show them what it *really* means to bully someone with numbers!"

"Yes, Big Brother!"

Xingtian nodded.

On his simple and honest face, a look of vengeful ecstasy and madness suddenly appeared.

RUSTLE RUSTLE RUSTLE!

Behind Xingtian, the Devouring Demon Tree grew continuously, gradually reaching a height of fifty meters.

This was the most complete form that Xingtian could manifest now that he had reached the Fourth-Tribulation Corpse Realm.

BUZZ... BUZZ... BUZZ...

Streams of black energy swirled around it. On the giant Devouring Demon Tree, scarlet fruits hung, emitting a sweet fragrance as if they were delicious.

Zhang Weihu jeered, "Hahaha, are you preparing to send us a fruit basket?"

Hong Yu glanced at him as if he were an idiot.

Then, with a wave of his hand, he shouted in a low voice, "Xingtian, release the Execution Corpse Warriors!"

ROAR!

Xingtian threw his head back and let out a thunderous roar.

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!

A rustling sound filled the air.

It was the sound of ripe fruits brushing against leaves as they fell to the ground. There were a great many of these fruits, numbering in the thousands.

One after another, in a mere five minutes, an estimated ten thousand fruits had fallen to the ground.

"Huh? What are they doing? Are they really going to treat us to some fruit?" Zhang Weihu was completely bewildered.

Someone else speculated, ’They’re probably preparing to surrender!’

’Why do I feel a little uneasy?’

’Relax! There are so many of us, what’s there to be afraid of!’

The attention of both sides was focused on the fruits that had fallen to the ground.

Under everyone’s watchful gaze, one of the fruits suddenly made a "CRACK-CRACK" sound, and a figure emerged from within.

At first, it was small, like a fist, as it stepped out of the fruit.

Its body grew larger and larger.

In the blink of an eye, it reached a height of about 1.8 meters, its body covered in corded muscle and a layer of gray armor, exuding an incredibly powerful presence.

Its gaze was cold and severe, filled with nothing but chilling killing intent.

It walked forward freely and then stopped.

Then a second, a third, a fourth...

In an instant, the world was teeming with figures.

A full ten thousand fruits had all hatched, successfully giving birth to ten thousand Execution Corpse Warriors.

These Execution Corpse Warriors were densely packed, yet they arranged themselves into orderly ranks.

"Surround them!"

Xingtian let out a low growl.

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!

The ten thousand Execution Corpse Warriors moved with perfect coordination, spreading out with incredible speed.

Above, below, in front, behind, left, and right.

From all eight directions, the ten thousand Execution Corpse Warriors formed an airtight encirclement, like a giant sphere.

Inside the hollow sphere were Xiahuang Ba and his men.

At this moment, Xiahuang Ba and the others were already stupefied.

Their eyes were wide with terror.

Some with weaker minds and less resolve even rolled their eyes back, their legs trembling as they soiled themselves.

"Wh-what in the world is going on?"

One of the experts gulped frantically, muttering to himself.

Ten thousand men had just walked out of small fruits, perfectly orderly, instantly growing to full size, and containing endless power.

Even though Xingtian could currently only create Primordial Core Realm Level Execution Corpse Warriors...

...and the Primordial Core Realm was absolutely nothing in the eyes of Xiahuang Ba and his men...

But...

...when the number of Primordial Core Realm experts reached the thousands, or even ten thousand, it became an incomparably terrifying force.

What’s more.

These ten thousand Primordial Core Realm experts all seemed to obey the commands of a single person with perfect coordination.

If such a combination were brought onto a battlefield, they would be an unstoppable human meat grinder!

GULP!

Xiahuang Ba swallowed hard.

Xiahuang Dun’s face was pale. "Quick, pinch me! Am I trapped in an Illusion Realm? I heard Hong Yu’s Illusion Technique is very powerful."

"I think I’m dreaming too! Here, let me pinch you!"

"Ah! Why’d you pinch me there?"

"Sorry, my hand slipped..."

"Fuck!"

Just moments ago, they had been so confident and arrogant, certain that Hong Yu’s group would die.

They had been clamoring, "So what if we bully you with numbers?"

Those experts who had been shouting things like, "If you’ve got guts, call your own people!" were now silent, their faces pale.

How could they have possibly imagined that not only would Hong Yu call for backup, but he would summon ten thousand men in a single move!

"H-how are we supposed to fight this battle?" Zhang Weilong said with a bitter smile.

The existence of Xingtian and the appearance of the Execution Corpse Warriors were like random pieces thrown onto the board, disrupting their entire strategy.

Victory should have been within their grasp.

But now it had become so difficult.

They might even die without a burial place, drowned in the deluge of an army they had just threatened to drown in spit.

Hong Yu smiled, his words infuriatingly smug, "So, are you still planning to bully us with your numbers?"

"Ah..."

Some burst into tears, while others didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Zhang Weihu trembled all over. "N-no, no, we don’t want to anymore."

"Oh? Not bullying with numbers anymore?"

Hong Yu nodded, but his gaze suddenly turned frigid. He grinned coldly. "Then it’s our turn. Today, we’ll get a taste of what it’s like to bully with numbers!"

With a wave of his hand.

The ten thousand Execution Corpse Warriors moved out as one...
