Experts Emerge One After Another, the True Kill Bai Alliance (35K)

Countless flames surrounded the scene. Wei Yixiao clearly saw Mercenary Tao killing one human after another—Reincarnators in clown makeup, heavily armed South Asian soldiers, Plot Characters from all kinds of mission worlds…

Mercenary Tao was killing almost without pause. Everything he did was an act of slaughter carried out in one spectacular fashion or another.

There was absolutely no respect or mercy for life to be seen in him.

"You are guilty!"

Wei Yixiao passed judgment. His hands tightened, and Hellfire surged from his eye sockets, about to burn Mercenary Tao’s soul to ashes.

But in the next moment, the blue flames on Mercenary Tao’s body seemed to be blocked by an invisible defense. The flames could not penetrate at all.

Mercenary Tao’s long black hair danced amid the flames, yet he was completely unharmed!

Wei Yixiao looked at Mercenary Tao. The man genuinely felt not even a trace of guilt. Despite killing so many people, Mercenary Tao did not possess the slightest sense of sin!

A person like this… this thing could no longer be called human.

The smile at Mercenary Tao’s lips grew increasingly mocking.

"See, Wei Yixiao? You can’t judge me."

Mercenary Tao’s voice came from within the flames, frivolous and supremely arrogant.

An irresistible force emerged from the fascia around his shoulders. Wei Yixiao watched helplessly as the hands he had driven into the other man’s muscles were squeezed out inch by inch.

Then, as his strength faltered, a fiercely spiraling force erupted from the other man’s body. The world spun, and Wei Yixiao was blasted away.

His entire body spun through the air for dozens of meters before slamming into the side wall of a building that had already turned black.

Only then did he see clearly that Mercenary Tao’s body had always been wrapped in a layer of force, like a warped force field.

Bai Cangshu spread his hands and slowly raised them before his chest.

Within the Swirl of the Root, he had obtained benefits beyond anything other Reincarnators could imagine.

Cloud Dispelling Palm Level 9, Sky Frost Fist Level 9, Wind God Leg Level 9.

He had deduced these three supreme martial arts to their limits. Not only had they brought his Martial Arts Mastery to the Level 9 Peak of Skill without any external enhancement, but even without the energy enhancement of internal force…

He had directly mastered the Three Parts Divine Finger. Furthermore, Void Cloud Force, Sky Frost Force, and Divine Wind Force had merged into one, becoming the Three Parts Return to Origin Force.

This perfectly harmonized force spread across his entire body, forming a rounded, warped force field.

Three Parts Return to Origin Force (Special Force)—This force possessed the properties of penetration, destruction, and force-breaking. Perfectly harmonized and adaptable, it weakened, dispersed, and nullified all attacks.

The strength of this force far surpassed the exertion Bai Cangshu had previously achieved through his formidable physical strength and Martial Arts Techniques alone. It possessed a variety of properties.

It combined offense and defense. Even if Bai Cangshu did not defend at all, an enemy’s attack would still be blocked when it struck him.

In Bai Cangshu’s view, this could be considered a weaker version of the Limitless Cursed Technique’s effect. Of course, that was only with his current level of force.

Once his force truly reached an utterly terrifying level, this defense would likewise be difficult for most enemies to break through.

Bai Cangshu lightly tapped his foot. Before his toes even touched the ground, the Three Parts Return to Origin Force had already reached it, exploding in an instant.

Fused with the speed of the Wind God Leg’s Divine Wind Force, Bai Cangshu’s figure seemed to freeze for a moment. Then, the pupils of a female Reincarnator watching from nearby suddenly trembled.

Black hair danced wildly, and the clearly embroidered character for kill on his pink robe was already before her eyes.

The woman’s codename was Azi, though her hair was blood red. Two short blades in pale purple sheaths hung diagonally across her back.

The hilts pointed downward. As her pupils trembled, before the fear had even faded from her eyes, her hands had already dropped instinctively.

Ring~

The two short blades gave off a clear hum. At the same instant, every vein across the woman’s wheat-colored body bulged, and her muscles swelled one after another, instantly shredding her exquisite formal gown.

Pale blue mana rippled from her body in an instant.

One Blade Asura!

Her aura and sense of presence instantly surged from utterly inconspicuous to overwhelming. The moment both blades entered her hands, what seemed like bloodshot veins gathered from the edges of her pupils toward their centers.

Ring!

Sword hum erupted. Like a Blade Storm appearing in an instant, fierce sword qi burst apart like blooming lotus petals.

The surrounding walls, ground, and shops were sliced open with hundreds of cuts in an instant, as though they were tofu.

Azi’s pupils dilated. There was nothing on her blades. Mercenary Tao had vanished into thin air before her eyes.

She shifted her gaze and saw another blond man four hundred meters away falling backward.

Mercenary Tao flicked his finger, splattering blood across the wall.

He went to kill someone else? Why…

Only then did Azi feel a chill in her chest. She lowered her head and saw that a gash had already been carved there, running from her neck to her waist.

I was cut?!

When… what sword did he use…

Azi’s consciousness began to blur. She could no longer see the information on the Space Panel she had opened.

Forget it… it no longer… mattered.

As she fell, Mercenary Tao’s clear voice seemed to reach her ears. It penetrated deep into her mind, as if it would follow her through death and into the underworld.

"What a pity. That heart still wasn’t fierce enough."

Bang!

Azi crashed to the ground, blood blooming like flowers. The houses and streets she had cut apart around her now seemed to provide an annotation for the end of her life.

Mahakala silently watched this scene as several figures arrived behind him, every one of them grim-faced.

In just a few breaths, Bing Gou, Kingsley, Azi, the Great Demon who absolutely possessed Title-level strength, and that remnant of the Fifth Element had all been overwhelmingly defeated.

A powerful aura, terrifying enough to make one shudder, enveloped the entire battlefield.

It was neither Conqueror’s Haki nor Satsui no Hado. Mercenary Tao had done nothing at all. He was merely standing there.

Yet he made these Title-level Reincarnators of the Finality Empire feel intense pressure, to the point that they no longer dared to watch from on high.

Instead, they all gathered behind Mahakala.

Someone whispered, "Is that the magic Mercenary Tao obtained from The Root? How could it be so powerful…"

The others also used their own methods. Some probed with Mental Power, while others observed with Pupil Techniques.

But Mahakala raised a hand to stop them. In that instant, his small body seemed to have grown somewhat, and he was now as tall as a ten-year-old child.

"Magic… heh, he hasn’t used any special ability yet, much less magic."

Everyone knew that the magic of the Type-Moon World differed from spells like fireballs in other worlds. They had never believed an ordinary Reincarnator could successfully return from the Swirl of the Root.

Let alone the Five True Magics. Such abilities surpassed the limits of their understanding.

Only Mahakala knew that among the current Reincarnators, there were definitely fewer than ten people capable of wielding power at that level!

Even their Excellencies could not all possess power of such a level.

His expression turned solemn as he pressed his palms together. Within the enormous formation that Mercenary Tao had previously severed with a Reincarnator’s corpse, flames began to blaze once more.

The black flames gave off little heat, but they carried an incomparably terrifying "aura." Simply staring at them for too long was enough to drive ordinary people with Mental Power below 10 insane and kill them.

Even Reincarnators would have their minds affected if they remained illuminated by such flames for too long.

Thus, it was not that their Excellencies were unwilling to grant such terrifying power to followers lower in rank. Those people simply could not control it.

Holding this Finality Dark Flame for too long would result in corrosion.

And he was the only Reincarnator besides their Excellencies who could be immune to that corrosion.

Within the Space, he was the only Reincarnator besides the Great Sun of Finality who could control this dangerous flame.

Mahakala took a step toward Mercenary Tao. His body grew with the wind, and he had now reached the build of an adolescent.

Mercenary Tao remained unmoved. From the corner of his eye, he saw the ghostly blue Hellfire beginning to crawl over the gray-haired old man whose life he had deliberately spared.

The man was quite strong. That move in which demonic energy had erupted made Bai Cangshu believe he could unleash Fierce-tier destructive power.

During the battle, Bai Cangshu had deliberately spared several people. They were now in their respective positions, either treating themselves or preparing abilities and trump cards.

But… it was not enough.

That pulse of the soul was not obvious enough. That burning of the heart was still far from enough!

Bai Cangshu looked at those who had survived and decided to kill half of them again. Under his pressure, perhaps a very few would reveal once more that Heart Light Pulse which intoxicated him so~

Bai Cangshu lowered his eyelids while lifting his chin, his expression unrestrained as he scrutinized every living person. At last, his gaze settled on Wei Yixiao.

He could feel it. He could see it!

The heart within that young man was blazing furiously. Perhaps it only needed a little more stimulation to bloom into an incomparably beautiful sight.

Wei Yixiao, who was using ghostly blue flames to try to "revive" the Great Demon, suddenly felt a chill run through his entire body. He sensed malice.

"Yixiao…"

Jiasu’s voice, mixed with fear, trembling, and even a faint sob, reached Wei Yixiao’s ears.

Wei Yixiao abruptly turned around, only to see that Mercenary Tao had already appeared before Jiasu, his finger pressed against Jiasu’s brow.

The various barriers and defenses around Jiasu’s body had already shattered.

Because he had spent all of the team’s inheritance, Jiasu had not actually received many resources to purchase powerful abilities or bloodlines.

When he had frantically strengthened himself for revenge, he had failed to notice that Jiasu, who followed behind him, was constantly in danger…

"No…"

The anger vanished from Wei Yixiao’s pupils, leaving only boundless fear and regret.

Jiasu was a good-natured person. Though he had not been with the Fifth Element for very long, when Boss Kai had ultimately entrusted the team to him, Jiasu had not left. Instead, he had continued looking after him.

Was Mercenary Tao going to take away this final teammate as well…

"No, no, no!"

The flames in Wei Yixiao’s pupils shook violently, nearly scorching that bare skull.

Bai Cangshu watched the violently flickering flames, and the smile on his lips became increasingly obvious.

He could feel that what he wanted to see was about to appear…

Ring~

As fierce currents spiraled, two figures appeared beside Bai Cangshu in an instant.

One in front and one behind.

The man in front wore a black trench coat and had a ponytail. He grabbed Bai Cangshu’s right arm with one hand.

In an instant, white radiance lit up, while scarlet light likewise shone from Bai Cangshu’s right hand.

The two powers clashed violently, warping the surrounding force field in an instant.

The person behind Bai Cangshu was tall, with purple-black long hair whipping wildly. She gripped a long katana in reverse and held it horizontally before Bai Cangshu’s neck.

Whoosh.

Black flames burned as Mahakala appeared, his body now over two meters tall and seemingly cast from molten sand-gold. He looked indifferently at Bai Cangshu and said,

"Your slaughter ends here, Mercenary Tao."

Rip!

In an instant, a terrifyingly intense current gave off the sound of something being torn apart.

Blazing White turbulence appeared directly before everyone’s eyes.

Mercenary Tao’s warped and blurred force field was also revealed clearly to everyone amid the Blazing White currents.

The first-ranked follower under the Great Sun of Finality, Mahakala!

A high-ranking officer of Paradise of the Dead, the top-tier Title-level Reincarnator The Heaven Qingqiu!

The new leader who had suddenly emerged from Blackwater, the Death Sword Single Thought of Silk who had slain two high-ranking Title-level Reincarnators in reverse!

Jin Yue’an abruptly rose to her feet, while Mai also flashed to a position dozens of meters behind Mercenary Tao, her expression tense.

None of them had expected so many top figures to appear in today’s encirclement.

Mai could not even recognize the identities of the latter two.

The so-called Kill Bai Alliance had never been an alliance of individual Avengers like White Face and the Great Demon. It was made up of gatherings such as the Finality Empire, Blackwater, and Paradise of the Dead!
