Strongest War Emperor

"Prison Guardian Blade Technique—Thunder Purgatory!"

Just as Tian Mou was in mortal danger, Shen Lang let out a low shout and struck again!

The fusion of the Prison Guardian Blade Technique and the Thunder Control Divine Technique was more powerful than ever before.

A flash of light from his saber, formed from Thunder Power, instantly sliced off the zombie’s right hand!

As the arm fell, Tian Mou finally snapped back to his senses. His Bloodthirsty Demon Saber flashed with crimson light as he diagonally plunged it into the zombie’s abdomen!

A deafening shriek erupted from the zombie’s mouth...

The next second, an explosive sound erupted from under Shen Lang’s feet. The air around him detonated as he instantly appeared beside Tian Mou.

BOOM!

His long saber, crackling with unrivaled Thunder Power, once again traced a graceful arc, cleaving the zombie in two.

The zombie’s Fierce Soul was also obliterated by the tyrannical blast of Thunder Power, turning to ash and smoke!

In just an instant, Shen Lang had unleashed only a few slashes, yet each one carried the weight of a mountain, like thunder shaking the heavens—a truly soul-stirring sight!

Three extremely powerful Fifth Level Zombies, three zombies that had been impervious to blades and spears and impossible to stop, had been slain one by one!

Every slash shocked everyone to their core. Every movement made their blood boil with excitement!

What a satisfying sight! What a moment of sweet vindication!

"KILL!"

The cheers from the people inside the Twin Towers Hall shook the heavens and the earth!

However, the situation was not as rosy as everyone had imagined.

In that short time, while the three Fifth Level Zombies besieging Tian Mou had been completely destroyed, the thirty-odd other zombies had used the opportunity to close in on the small group outside the Twin Towers Hall!

If they didn’t leave now, Shen Lang, Tian Mou, and the other two Xuanwu Realm powerhouses would be completely swallowed by this formidable Dark Power...

Shen Lang’s eyes turned cold as he surveyed the surrounding zombies. He stepped forward and unleashed a Chain Rapid Slash!

"SWISH SWISH SWISH SWISH!"

In that single instant, Shen Lang swung his saber four times!

Four beams of Sword Qi blazed into existence, so bright they were nearly blinding.

Bolts of lightning crackled within the Sword Qi as it slashed forward and to the left and right, as if cleaving the world apart!

The black mist permeating the Earth Palace churned like a stormy sea, rapidly parting to either side.

Within a two-hundred-meter radius, thunder and lightning crisscrossed the air, and an incomparably tyrannical, formless Sword Intent permeated the entire space.

The dark mist billowed and the air currents surged, washing over the approaching horde of zombies like a tidal wave.

At that moment, watching Shen Lang’s back, everyone—from Tian Mou and the two other Xuanwu Realm powerhouses to all the people inside the Twin Towers Hall—felt a strange sensation.

It was as if the back of this mysterious, masked young man was growing taller and taller, like that of a Giant!

He stood there, his figure straight and tall, as unyielding as a pine tree.

One man, one saber...

Sweeping through an army of thousands, a force that none could stand against!

It felt as if, with him standing there, no matter how numerous or powerful the zombies were, they could never breach his barrier!

It felt as if, as long as he was here, this Gloomy and Terrifying place was no longer as unbearable as it had been before...

Only an instant had passed, but to the onlookers, it felt like an eternity.

In that moment, a single thought surfaced in many people’s minds... ’I want to see the face behind that mask.’

As everyone stared intently at this astonishing scene, the horde of zombies let out a unified shriek and thrust their fists forward in perfect unison!

The piercing shriek could shatter metal and stone. It made everyone’s eardrums feel like they were about to burst, forcing them to clench their teeth as their blood roiled in their veins!

An attack from over thirty Fifth Level Hair Zombies was simply too terrifying.

Amidst a thunderous roar, a rolling black qi that seemed to come from Hell itself swept forth, transforming into numerous Evil Dragons that roared in the air!

Even though they were over 250 meters away, the people in the Twin Towers Hall could still feel an extremely dense aura of death wash over them.

At this moment, everyone felt as if they had been plunged into an Abyss, and a chill spread through their bodies!

Over thirty colossal Evil Dragons shrieked incessantly, as if bringing about the apocalypse.

Meanwhile, the four beams of Sword Qi that stretched across the sky, carrying an unrivaled Sword Intent, were like the creation of a new world!

In an instant, the two forces collided like meteorites!

"BOOM!"

A thunderous noise, like mountains collapsing and the earth splitting, echoed throughout the Earth Palace.

For a moment, everyone in the Twin Towers Hall went deaf. They clapped their hands over their ears, their faces contorted in pain.

The entire Earth Palace hummed and vibrated from the impact.

Four tornado-like ripples of Energy erupted from the point of contact, sweeping across the sky under everyone’s horrified gazes!

The horde of zombies screeched madly, their massive bodies pushed back in unison!

"Fall back!"

Seeing the incomparably powerful storm sweeping toward them, the faces of Tian Mou and the two others behind Shen Lang changed drastically, and they roared in unison.

They wouldn’t dare to face such a terrifying surge of Energy head-on!

But Shen Lang was completely unfazed. He stood his ground with no intention of retreating!

His Chaos Divine Body could part heaven and earth, his Xingtian Battle Armor was indestructible, and he was protected by the Star Moon Bodhi Prayer Beads. Facing the monstrous wave of Energy, Shen Lang was fearless!

An aura of world-dominating might swept out from within Shen Lang’s body.

Boundless Battle Intent surged as the Immortal Celestial Saber shone once more!

And just like that, under everyone’s disbelieving eyes, Shen Lang didn’t retreat a single step. Instead, he viciously slashed down at the incoming storm of Energy!

A peerless blade light blossomed forth!

In an instant, as if splitting the seas and sundering the earth, it cleaved the oncoming storm in two!

In terms of pure power, Shen Lang could handle a single Fifth Level Zombie with more than enough to spare.

He could even withstand an attack from two or three at once.

However, it was absolutely impossible for him to single-handedly face the combined power of over thirty Fifth Level Zombies.

These Fifth Level Zombies had slumbered for ten thousand years. Not only was their power immense, but their bodies had also become so tough that even an ordinary Xuanwu Realm Ninth Heaven powerhouse would be helpless against them.

If over thirty of them attacked at once, not even a King Martial Realm expert would dare to underestimate them!

However, the one they faced was not an ordinary King Martial Realm expert. It was Shen Lang, who possessed the Chaos Divine Body and had an unimaginable comprehension of the world’s momentum and Heaven and Earth Rules!

Although the power of Shen Lang’s Sword Qi was not a match for the zombies’ combined attack, his Sword Momentum was fused with Small Success Blade Intent, making it incomparably sharp. How could it be compared to the power of these zombies, who had just temporarily teamed up like a ragtag mob?

In this exchange, although Shen Lang had used his understanding of the Heaven and Earth Rules to his advantage, it was still a genuine demonstration of his true strength!

From this single clash, he stood his ground without moving an inch, while the entire horde of zombies was pushed back more than thirty meters by the tyrannical storm!

The difference in their levels was obvious at a glance!

After a moment of silence, the crowd inside the Twin Towers Hall erupted into a sky-shattering cheer!

"SWOOSH SWOOSH SWOOSH!"

Just then, the sound of tearing air approached as Xue Ming and two others from the Imperial Dragon Sect arrived.

The three of them looked down at the devastated landscape below, pockmarked with one enormous crater after another. In the distance, the horde of Fifth Level Zombies was once again beginning to slowly advance. They were all left speechless, their mouths agape...

The leader, Xue Ming, lightly bit the tip of his tongue to calm himself.

With a flicker of his body, he flew down.

"Brother Xue Ming, you’re finally here..." The two Xuanwu Realm powerhouses immediately went to greet him.

Xue Ming waved a hand at them without saying a word and landed directly beside Shen Lang. "Young Master Lang, what do we do now?"

The two men were stunned, and the way they looked at Shen Lang changed once again.

Xue Ming was the leader dispatched by the Imperial Dragon Sect to oversee this place. He had the most seniority and the highest cultivation.

Yet he was asking this masked young man for guidance with such a reliant and respectful tone...

’Looks like this young man isn’t just absurdly powerful; his status must be extraordinary as well!’

’Otherwise, why would an old veteran at the Peak of the Xuanwu Realm consult him on such a critical matter?’

At this time, the other two who had come with Xue Ming also landed beside Shen Lang.

One of them said worriedly, "Our people are all rushing over, but while we may have the advantage in numbers, in terms of cultivation..."

The forces stationed outside the Hidden Moon Tomb comprised over thirty different powers, each with one or two Xuanwu Realm powerhouses among them.

All told, the numbers weren’t small, totaling more than sixty Xuanwu Realm powerhouses...

The problem was that many of them were only at the Second and Third Heavens of the Xuanwu Realm!

There were barely any at the Xuanwu Realm Ninth Heaven!

And as for the zombies here, never mind the Fourth Level ones, there were a full thirty at the Fifth Level!

Even if all the experts at the Hidden Moon Tomb arrived, they still wouldn’t be able to handle a situation like this...

Shen Lang’s expression wasn’t pleasant either.

But Shen Lang wasn’t worried about the thirty-odd Fifth Level Zombies.

With the Xingtian Battle Armor on his body, the Star Moon Bodhi Prayer Beads in hand, a physical body of almost unrivaled toughness, and the Immortal Celestial Saber that could cut through anything... Shen Lang was currently like a humanoid Wild Beast.

His title as number one below the King Martial Realm was definitely not just for show.

Of course, he wouldn’t be able to withstand a head-on clash with thirty Fifth Level Zombies.

But these thirty zombies were not a single entity; they were scattered individuals!

If he charged into the zombie horde and went on a rampage, killing all thirty of these Fifth Level Zombies would only be a matter of time!

What Shen Lang was most worried about was the powerful existence behind these zombies!

The more he couldn’t figure out the true extent of this Dark Power, the stronger his sense of crisis became!

After a moment of contemplation, Shen Lang said in a cold voice, "The Fifth Level Zombies are nothing to fear. Leave them all to me. You will immediately lead the people in the Twin Towers Hall to break out, rendezvous with the incoming experts, and get out of this Earth Palace as quickly as possible!"

Everyone present instantly broke out in a cold sweat.

Although Shen Lang’s words were a bit arrogant, they all knew he had the right to be.

Of course, the important thing wasn’t his arrogance. These men were all shrewd veterans, and from that one sentence, they understood... ’There’s probably something even more terrifying here!’

’Otherwise, why would this powerhouse who claimed the Fifth Level Zombies were nothing to fear sound so grave?’

’Why would he demand that everyone leave immediately?’
