Berserk God of War

However, the crowd of experts was left looking at each other in dismay.

Although the Frost Knight just claimed it was a bluff, what if it wasn’t? What if he really intended to detonate the array?

Just as everyone hesitated over whether to surround him once more, an aged voice suddenly reverberated from the edge of the forest: ”Indeed, the Frost Sword Demon is definitely trying to flee. Why fear? He won’t dare to go down with us.”

”Esteemed representatives of the Qianwang Holy Tower, leave this position to my Beiming Hanshan.”

”If the Frost Knight dares to flee in my direction, I’ll make sure he doesn’t come back.”

The experts’ eyes followed the voice, suddenly seeing Qu Hanming standing at the very edge of the Forest Hunting Ground, exuding a freezing chill and looking as though he was determined to stop the Frost Sword Demon at any cost.

Indeed, Qu Hanming openly emerged from within the forest.

No one knew yet that he had already joined forces with the Overlord Commerce, much less that he had been the array’s eye. So, he transformed into one of the top-level emperors attacking the Frost Knight.

The experts from various factions blinked. When did Beiming Yin Demon Qu Hanming arrive there?

But there were too many strong figures present to notice everyone’s position, and Beiming Hanshan was famously in support of the Qianwang Holy Tower, so nobody made any other connections.

One by one, they secretly cursed: ”Old Qu, you really know how to curry favor.”

And sure enough, one of Fenglei’s Generals immediately praised: ”Mountain Master Qu truly has a heart for the Qianwang Holy Tower, deserving of praise.”

On hearing this, Qu Hanming hastily responded with more flattery.

The various experts couldn’t stand it, rushing to guard the forest hunting ground’s perimeter. However, no one dared to enter, still worried about the Frost Knight detonating the array.

The destructive power outside is nothing like inside the forest.

In conclusion, after the blockade and ambush around were completed, the Thunderstorm Roar Beast also... boom!

Amidst the flashing lightning and thunder, the entire Domineering Frost Array’s Turtle Shell Cage was utterly shattered. Both array eyes were gone, after all.

A terrifying pressure of wind and thunder descended upon the entire Forest Hunting Ground once more.

Sikong Jing still stood with Changqing Venerable, gripping the sword tightly before suddenly rising into the air to confront the Thunderstorm Roar Beast head-on.

It glared with its huge eyes and asked: ”You dare to come out? Still itching for more?”

But Sikong Jing no longer bothered to reply, instead muttering softly, ”Absolute Night Frost Array, explode for me!”

The array exploded, and this time it really did! Boom...

With Sikong Jing’s True Qi maneuvering, the entire Forest Hunting Ground roiled instantly. Countless frosts lit up and then exploded. Hard to tell whether in slow motion or in the blink of an eye, but as soon as Sikong Jing uttered ”explode,” it erupted.

The surrounding experts didn’t even have time to react.

They could only widen their eyes, instinctively unleashing Protective True Qi as the terrifying wind and frost surged toward them.

And at this moment, with prior anticipation, Qu Hanming had already whisked Xu He and Cold Soul Old Ghost away, retreating ahead of time. Due to the explosion, no one noticed his movements.

Simultaneously, the destructive force from the array blasted skyward, directly striking the Thunderstorm Roar Beast.

It also struck Sikong Jing and Changqing Venerable...

This desperate tactic of self-destruction might seem like mutual assured destruction to others, but Sikong Jing had already prepared countermeasures. He immediately called to Changqing Venerable: ”Follow me, strike the Thunderstorm Roar Beast.”

Then, a sword thrust before the surrounding frosts exploded fully, piercing the range of the Thunderstorm Roar Beast’s power.

The beast, with its entire body raging with wind and thunder, shattered the explosive force of the array. So when Sikong Jing and Changqing Venerable arrived, they found themselves at the junction of two forces: wind and frost.

Ordinarily, this would be extremely dangerous, and an ordinary person would be shattered to pieces by these forces.

But Sikong Jing maneuvered with Changqing Venerable, executing a sudden space fold to evade the wind and frost power.

And then, in a blink, they appeared directly above the Thunderstorm Roar Beast’s head.

In the next instant, Sikong Jing’s eyes focused intensely, pouring his entire True Qi into his sword, plunging it fiercely into the Thunderstorm Roar Beast’s head... crack!

His ice sword shattered instantly, barely harming the Thunderstorm Roar Beast, yet it pierced just a tiny amount.

Which only nicked a bit of its flesh...

At that moment, Sikong Jing, leveraging the power of the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts using the broken sword as a connecting medium, almost saw the entirety of the Thunderstorm Roar Beast’s meridians. In the blink of an eye, he imprinted the rest of the meridians into his own body.

Internally, the Nu Ming Beast’s Holy Martial Meridians instantly sealed, forming a complete meridian map.

As the closure completed, Sikong Jing, borne by the recoil from that last sword, crashed with Changqing Venerable onto the Nu Ming Beast’s back, rolling several times before standing again.

Simultaneously, the Thunderstorm Roar Beast completely hindered the surrounding frosty blasts, turning back to glare at Sikong Jing and Changqing Venerable.

It cracked a cold smile: ”This time your scratch had a bite, as punishment, into my Fenglei Cage you go!”

Sizzle, sizzle...

The crackling sound of lightning surged suddenly, enclosing Sikong Jing and Changqing Venerable into a spherical cage of lightning and thunder, trapping them within.

After accomplishing the task, the Thunderstorm Roar Beast coldly stated: ”Dare to trap this Holy Beast with a turtle shell, now feel what it’s like.”

Having been previously trapped by a turtle shell, the Thunderstorm Roar Beast, in turn, trapped the pair inside its cage as revenge...

Of course, its main goal was to capture the Frost Sword Demon and Changqing Venerable alive.

It could be said to have succeeded, boasting triumphantly: ”Detonating the array against this Holy Beast is merely a tickle.”

The array’s explosive power was indeed considerable, but for a Holy Martial Stage being like it, not much of a threat.

Inside the Fenglei Cage, Changqing Venerable gazed at the surrounding lightning and thunder in a daze, his small face stiff as he asked: ”Little Demon Sikong, are we actually defeated? Trapped and captured alive?”

Trapped, this was troublesome indeed.

They certainly couldn’t escape the Holy Martial Demon Beast’s cage unless Little Demon Sikong made some mistake.

Sikong Jing must have had an escape plan, but something had clearly gone awry.

Unlike Changqing Venerable, Sikong Jing’s eyes glimmered with brilliance, and he calmly smiled: ”No, we have succeeded.”

Success? At his words, Changqing Venerable was utterly bewildered...

Unbeknownst to her, Sikong Jing’s eyes harbored the same source of wind and thunder as the Thunderstorm Roar Beast. Since he had replicated the Holy Martial Meridians of wind and thunder within himself, naturally, he could also wield its power.

After imprinting comes comprehension and mastery.

And Changqing Venerable hadn’t noticed, Sikong Jing’s internal wind and thunder power was intensifying.

At the same time, due to Sikong Jing’s array detonation, the Forest Hunting Ground had almost instantaneously turned to flatland.

Outside the Forest Hunting Ground, numerous experts winced repeatedly, some with blood even seeping at the corners of their mouths, revealing that some of the weaker ones had been injured by Sikong Jing’s explosive array.

Furiously, they cursed in their hearts: ”Old ghost Qu Hanming, and his nonsense about the Frost Knight not daring to detonate the array, he dared to, damn it.”

”Ugh...”

Amidst everyone’s curses, Qu Hanming violently spat mouthfuls of fresh blood, his old face pale as he crawled out from the ruins in the distance, raging: ”Damn Frost Knight, dared to actually detonate it.”

As they looked at him, they were inwardly amused.

Serves you right for being so close just now; heavily injured now, aren’t you?
