Chapter 803 - 671: Worthless Rabble, Invading the Blessed Land
As time went on, the atmosphere among those waiting grew more restless.
Everyone knew that the time for the cross-border bridge was limited, based on past experiences it would last no more than two hours.
If the guardian of the bridge intentionally stalled until the last moment, they would have to bid farewell to this immense opportunity.
"You bastard! True Monarch Blessed Land belongs to the world, everyone has a share, why block us?"
A bearded man in red couldn’t hold it in anymore and stepped forward to angrily reprimand the bridge’s guardian.
"Is anyone blocking you?" Daoist Heaven-Burning sneered, "Come if you wish, I won’t stop you."
"Really?" The bearded man showed a skeptical expression.
But seeing Daoist Heaven-Burning’s serious demeanor, he couldn’t suppress his desire and greed, and cautiously approached.
His cultivation was at the peak of the Fourth Layer of the Spirit Platform, just a step away from breaking through to the Fifth Layer of the Spirit Platform, and he excelled in escape techniques, thus his courage matched his skills.
The cross-border bridge was over ten zhang wide, so he picked a relatively empty spot.
As long as he managed to step onto the bridge, he would be safe.
It was well known that the cross-border bridge was infused with True Monarch’s power, and any attack below the Golden Core cultivation would be nullified.
Seeing Daoist Heaven-Burning and the cultivators beside him remain indifferent, the bearded man in red felt a surge of joy.
His entire being rapidly circulated Spiritual Essence, controlling the flying cushion underneath to accelerate and rush toward the rainbow bridge.
Unexpectedly, a thunderous silver light flashed by, followed quickly by a piercing scream.
"Ah!!"
The bearded man was entirely pierced by a silver-glowing arm, suspended in mid-air, struggling with his legs as streams of blood splattered.
The Divine Ape looked at its prey with a ferocious grin.
Then, with a slight shock of its right arm, the cultivator with the Fourth Layer of the Spirit Platform cultivation was shattered into pieces, as effortlessly as killing a chicken.
"Daoist Heaven-Burning, didn’t you say you wouldn’t intervene?" someone shouted angrily.
"Fool, which eye of yours saw me make a move?" Daoist Heaven-Burning’s lips curled with a faint trace of mockery.
The one who struck wasn’t him, but rather a demon from the Divine Ape Peak.
Yet, this shameless wordplay further incited fury, causing a chorus of angry curses.
"To hell with you, Daoist Heaven-Burning!"
"Your mother will have sons without buttocks!"
"Let’s rush together, can these few people still block all of us?"
Someone began to rally, for indeed the number of bridge guardians and demons was small, most had entered the Blessed Land.
"Alright, let’s charge together!"
’Whoosh whoosh whoosh!’
In an instant, over a dozen streaks of different colored light pierced the sky, carving distinct paths as they shot toward gaps in the rainbow bridge!
"Ridiculous trick." Daoist Heaven-Burning sneered, lightly stepping on the magic fire dragon beneath his feet.
"Roar!"
The fire dragon, initially only over ten zhang long, instantly expanded to five or six hundred zhang.
It coiled like a mountain range, with each crimson scale translucent like crystal jade, its huge dragon eyes filled with a cunning spirit, almost indistinguishable from a living creature.
It opened its blood-red maw, blocking the space in front of the rainbow bridge almost entirely.
Seeing this, the charging cultivators scrambled to brake mid-air, fearing they would rush into the fire dragon’s mouth.
The fire dragon, witnessing their hesitation, spat forth a thick red light again, forming a surging sea of flames that completely engulfed the space ahead.
The sea of fire dyed the sky a brilliant red, the space violently fluctuating as if about to be burned through.
Continuous screams echoed through the scene, more than half of the cultivators turning to ashes under the attack.
The rest, who narrowly escaped, were heavily injured, unable to maintain their peak state.
These cultivators were all elite, primarily in the Third and Fourth Layers of the Spirit Platform, and included even two prodigies from smaller sects of the Fifth Layer of the Spirit Platform.
Sadly, even they couldn’t withstand a casual strike from Daoist Heaven-Burning.
The Daoist of the Alliance Hierarch was a true prodigy among the elite of Boundless Sea Realm, miles apart from ordinary cultivators in terms of foundation and cultivation techniques.
The heritage of top sects was fully manifested at this moment.
Realizing the time was nearing two hours.
Those hidden around the rainbow bridge, each showing a look of despair, began entertaining thoughts of leaving.
No matter how great the opportunity in the Blessed Land, what could possibly trump one’s life?
Just as they were about to leave.
A somewhat familiar figure swaggered towards the rainbow bridge.
As if dismissing the dozen silhouettes blocking the bridge entrance as non-existent.
"That is... Northern Wanderer Red Hero, does he dare to come?" someone recognized Lou Yi’s identity and exclaimed softly.
Previously, Lou Yi had forcibly defeated the True Inheritance member Jiang Hui from the Taiyi Sect, becoming notorious in the world.
Added to the fact he broke through the encirclement of the Demon Clan army and killed the demon king descendant, the one-horned ant, his fame soared once more.
"Wasn’t he gravely injured and covered in blood a few days ago, why does he now appear completely unaffected?"
"Good, a tough one has come into play. Who knows, perhaps he can stir up the situation and give us a chance!" someone said excitedly.
No one dared to underestimate Lou Yi at this point.
Yet most still presumed he could only disrupt the scene with little chance of winning.
After all, the guardians comprised a dozen people and demons, including top experts like Daoist Heaven-Burning from the Palace of Leaving Fire, the demon king descendant Divine Ape, and Trench Patrol Guest from Xingsu District.
Lou Yi, standing alone, seemed unlikely to accomplish much.
"You dare to come?"
The silver Divine Ape locked its gaze on Lou Yi, its eyes filled with extreme hatred and resentment.
