#736 - Death Harvest, the Shocked Five Saints

"What's going on!"

"Let me out!"

"Death Gods... they're Death Gods!"

"Run!"

The surrounding Ghost Immortals sensed something was wrong, and as if remembering something, they immediately screamed and flew back.

Zong Yao and the others widened their eyes, then revealed looks of surprise.

They hadn't expected these Death Gods to have such a powerful restraining effect on Ghost Immortals, even being able to force them out of their ethereal state.

Qin Qipeng was overjoyed, and without hesitation, released even more mantises from his storage ring.

Buzz buzz buzz—

Countless black shadows flew out of the storage ring in Qin Qipeng's hand, the dense sound of flapping wings never ceasing. Under his command, all the mantises sprayed out white silk, forming even larger white giant nets to envelop the surrounding Ghost Immortals.

The Ghost Immortals caught in the nets couldn't escape at all, struggling in vain as they were stuck to them.

Some mantises climbed along the silk threads, raising their icy sickles without hesitation at them!

Swish!

Their sickles seemed to have a huge killing power against the Ghost Immortals, cutting open their bodies while also freezing their souls. Then, with a wide opening of their mouthparts, they swallowed them whole into their stomachs.

At this moment, these mantises truly transformed into Death Gods, reaping the lives of Ghost Immortals one by one.

"No—"

"Save me—"

"Don't, don't, don't eat me, I don't want to be eaten!!"

A chorus of wails and howls filled the air as the Ghost Immortals let out desperate screams, watching the mantises pouncing at them.

Even when facing Buddhist cultivators with profound Buddhist teachings, they wouldn't be so terrified.

Seeing this scene, the pale-faced youth in the distance also had a drastic change in expression: "They're actually Death Gods, how is this possible? How can anyone be able to control these monsters..."

Zong Yao could recognize the mantises, and he naturally could too.

Before participating in the Tongtian Assembly, his elders had warned him that there was a place on Li Sha Immortal Island that must never be entered, where many monsters called Death Gods resided. They had an extreme restraining ability against Ghost Immortals, and once they set foot there, with their current cultivation, it would be suicide.

So for the past ten years, the pale-faced youth had always kept a respectful distance from that area.

"Kill—"

How could Qin Qipeng let them go? He immediately commanded the mantises to chase and kill them, not letting a single one go!

—

At this moment, inside the huge palace.

Immortal Saint Qiuhong Jun, Buddhist Saint Nanwu, Devil Saint Chu Aotian, Ghost Saint Nie Wushang, and Demon Saint Gongyang Jin were staring at the mirror, observing the changes in the situation. Pang Qing and the five of Shi Yunbian stood respectfully behind their respective Saintly Venerables.

The image switched to the battlefield where Qin Qipeng was.

Seeing the numerous mantises swarming out, the five Saints present all changed their expressions and turned their heads to look at Gongyang Jin.

"Old monster, how did the Death Gods leave their nests and run out?"

Chu Aotian asked with a frown.

The five of them naturally knew that the Death Gods had been placed on Li Sha Immortal Island, but it was precisely because these Death Gods didn't like leaving their fixed nests that they were at ease leaving them there. Otherwise, if these killing machines were allowed to act recklessly, no matter how many participants there were, it would be suicide.

Gongyang Jin was also very puzzled and said coldly: "You ask me, who am I going to ask?"

"Nonsense, you brought these things out, don't you know?" Chu Aotian shouted: "These ghostly things are produced in your Demon Domain. You've studied them for so many years, don't you even understand their most basic habits?"

Buddhist Saint Nanwu chanted a Buddhist prayer: "This old monk said long ago that these things are too murderous and should have been nipped in the bud!"

Nie Wushang, who was always shrouded in black mist, said in a hoarse voice: "Stop arguing, these things seem to be being controlled by someone!"

"How is that possible!"

Gongyang Jin flatly denied: "This old one has tested it countless times. These things don't understand human nature and can't be artificially controlled at all. This little guy must have used some special method to confuse them..."

Previously, Qin Qipeng had been captured by the mantises for many years, and they hadn't paid attention to him all the time, until they arrived near the sand dunes that they discovered their tracks. They were also very surprised that they were riding the mantises, but they didn't care much.

Although these monsters couldn't be controlled, if it was just confusing them, there was still a way.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped in the face.

He saw Qin Qipeng in the picture pointing at a group of Ghost Immortals and shouting: "Kill them all, leave none behind!"

These mantises immediately hissed in response, rushing towards the Ghost Immortals pointed to by Qin Qipeng.

This scene was not just something that confusion could do, it was clear that they had truly gained the approval of the mantises.

Gongyang Jin's expression was stiff, and he frowned: "Impossible, what means did this kid use..."

However, Nie Wushang, staring at the screen, took a deep breath: "Not good!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure had disappeared from the spot. Everyone looked back and saw a black mist flying away rapidly.

"What the hell is this guy doing?"

Chu Aotian was stunned.

Qiuhong Jun chuckled: "Don't you know, that pale-faced kid is the only offspring of his elder brother. If he dies here, he's afraid that he won't have the face to face his elder brother in the future!"

Everyone immediately understood.

Having reached their level of cultivation, they had already gone through countless years, and the close relatives around them, apart from their children, were almost very few. Even their children were becoming fewer and fewer, after all, it was too difficult to continue to have offspring.

As a result, they also cherish these people more.

Like this Nie Wushang, he currently only has one elder brother still alive, the other brothers and sisters had long been annihilated in the river of time.

"Not good!"

Coming back to his senses, Gongyang Jin also exclaimed in surprise, waving his sleeves, and in the blink of an eye, rushed out of the hall and followed closely behind.

"What is he doing again?"

Chu Aotian was a little confused.

Qiuhong Jun immediately reacted: "This little guy named Qin Qipeng is afraid that he won't let go of that pale-faced kid. If Nie Wushang's nephew dies, who knows if this guy will go berserk. Qin Qipeng can control the Death Gods, and he has extraordinary talent, we can't let Nie Wushang mess around!"

After saying that, he also turned into a long rainbow and followed closely behind.

Chu Aotian and Nanwu also changed their expressions slightly and flew away together.

Pang Qing and the others looked at each other.

Shi Yunbian weakly said: "What does this mean? Are the five Saints going to personally break the rules of the Tongtian Assembly?"

Fu Kong glanced at him: "So what? Do you have any objections?"

"…"

Shi Yunbian was silent.

Who would dare to have an opinion?
