Peach Blossom Mountain Liu Jiaxiu's Biography

Chapter 1454 The Battle of Matsuba Island (Part Two)
Seeing their descendants being slaughtered by human cultivators, their corpses piling up on the sea, and coupled with Liu Changxu's provocative shouts, the two ninth-tier pine needle crab kings hiding in the underground secret space finally couldn't hold back any longer.

Two deafening roars echoed from the depths of the secret realm, and two enormous azure shadows flashed and appeared above Pine Leaf Island.

These two snow crab kings were a hundred miles in size, their bluish-gray shells covered with ferocious spikes, their eight giant legs treading on the void, their two pincers opening and closing, capable of tearing apart the surrounding spiritual energy, and their eyes flashing with a ferocious light that devoured people.

Upon seeing this, Jin Haonan and Zhang Wenping knew that the main culprit had finally appeared. After exchanging a glance, they made their move together.

Jin Haonan unleashed his natal spiritual treasure, the "Sky-Splitting Axe," and the axe's spiritual light surged, carrying the momentum to split mountains and rivers as it charged straight at the crab king on the left!

Zhang Wenping then activated the "White Tiger Soul-Splitting Spear," the spear tip transforming into a streak of white light that followed closely behind like a shooting star chasing the moon, forming a pincer attack with Jin Haonan.

On the other side, Liu Changxu was even more decisive. The moment his thought arose, thirty-six Crimson Lotus Immortal Swords roared forth from his body, transforming into thirty-six crimson streaks of light. These streaks intertwined in the air, forming an impenetrable Crimson Lotus Sword Array, carrying a terrifying, world-destroying aura as they hurtled towards the ninth-tier Crab King. The Crimson Lotus Karmic Flames burning on the swords raged fiercely, scorching and distorting even the surrounding void, filling the air with a scorching atmosphere.

Almost simultaneously with the formation of the sword array, the Ruyi Kongxuan Mirror hovered above his head. The mirror surface suddenly lit up, and a dazzling silver beam shot out, like an invisible shackle, instantly imprisoning the Pine Leaf Crab King firmly in the void. The Crab King stomped its giant foot, only to find that the space around it had already solidified, and couldn't help but let out an angry roar.

Immediately afterward, the Ruyi Soul-Destroying Lamp beside him suddenly lit up, and a dark purple soul-destroying divine light shot out from the wick, coiling around the Crab King like a venomous snake and instantly enveloping its massive body. That divine light specifically eroded the soul, penetrating the Crab King's incredibly hard shell and instantly severely damaging its soul.

In an instant, a burst of spiritual light erupted above Pine Leaf Island. The Crab King's furious roar and the deafening roar of the spiritual treasure intertwined to create a terrifying sound wave that shook the heavens and the earth.

On the other side, Jin Haonan and Zhang Wenping were already engaged in battle with the Crab King on the left. The Sky-Splitting Axe, carrying a terrifying, world-destroying force, crashed down, colliding fiercely with the Crab King's giant claws, unleashing blinding spiritual light and stirring up turbulent spatial currents. Even the sea below was shaken, causing towering waves to rise. This duel between top experts had already reached a fever pitch from the very beginning.

In an instant, the sky above Pine Leaf Island exploded with spiritual light, the Crab King's roar mingling with the booming of magical artifacts. Jin Haonan and his companion clashed with the Crab King on the left, the Sky-Splitting Axe colliding with the Crab Claws, stirring up a vast spatial turbulence!
The duel between the three human holy emperors and the two demon crab kings brought this great war to its climax.

However, this epic showdown did not last long.

Because the ninth-tier crab king's soul was severely damaged by the Ruyi Soul-Extinguishing Lamp, and it was also imprisoned in the void by the silver mirror light emitted by the Ruyi Void Mirror, the ninth-tier crab king was in dire straits from the very beginning of the battle.

But this ninth-tier crab king was, after all, an ancient monster that had lived for ten thousand years. How could it be willing to perish like this? It fought back with all its might, its giant claws flailing wildly, trying to deflect the incoming Crimson Lotus Immortal Sword. The opening and closing of its claws was accompanied by a sharp whistling sound that tore through the void, but due to the excruciating pain in its soul and the spatial confinement, its movements had long lost their usual speed.

But such resistance was nothing more than a cornered beast struggling against Liu Changxu, who was in the mid-stage of the Mahayana realm. With the Ruyi Soul-Destroying Lamp hanging beside him, the Soul-Destroying Divine Light continuously gushed out, destroying and corroding the Crab King's primordial spirit like maggots clinging to its bones. The pain that penetrated to the bone marrow made it let out a roar that was not like that of a living being, and it had long since lost all reason.

At this moment, the sword formation composed of thirty-six Crimson Lotus Immortal Swords shot forth, slamming heavily into the Crab King's incredibly sturdy shell, producing deafening roars. The Crab King, having lost its senses, could barely maintain its basic defenses and could only watch helplessly as the Crimson Lotus Immortal Swords pierced its shell. In just a few breaths, this ninth-tier Crab King was completely annihilated by the combined attack of the Crimson Lotus Sword Formation and the Ruyi Soul-Destroying Lamp, not even a wisp of its soul escaped.

This astonishingly swift annihilation stunned the human cultivators and the remaining high-level crab demons on the battlefield. Everyone stared in shock at Liu Changxu, whose brilliance had faded in the void, and then at the crab king's aura that had vanished in an instant.

No one expected that a showdown that should have been evenly matched would end so decisively, leaving no time for anyone to react.

After killing the ninth-tier Crab Queen, Liu Changxu immediately used his storage bracelet to store its remains inside.

Meanwhile, seeing how powerful Liu Changxu was, another ninth-tier crab king, who was engaged in a fierce battle with Jin Haonan and Zhang Wenping, turned and fled without hesitation.

Seeing this, Jin Haonan and Zhang Wenping were not about to let their prey escape. They exchanged a glance, their eyes sharpening, and immediately gave chase.

Seeing the two relentlessly pursuing it, the ninth-tier crab king's eyes flashed with fear. In an attempt to escape, it spared no effort, expending its essence to unleash spatial magic one after another. Ripples of space spread around its massive body, each flash covering billions of miles, trying to use spatial leaps to shake off its pursuers.

However, Jin Haonan and Zhang Wenping were prepared. The two locked onto the Crab King's aura. Their bodies shone with spiritual light, and they also used their ability to tear through space. Their figures were like two streaks of light, chasing after him relentlessly.

No matter how the ninth-tier crab king used its spatial abilities to teleport and change direction, Jin Haonan and his companion could always decipher its trajectory in an instant and close the distance again. The two sides fled and chased, their figures flashing several times between the sea and sky, and before long they had moved far away from the main battlefield of Pine Leaf Island.

Since Jin Haonan and the other two had not made an invitation, Liu Changxu did not intervene in the pursuit. He stood proudly in the void, his gaze sweeping over the crab demon army below, which had lost its command and was already scattered. Immediately, with a thought, he released all the Liu family cultivators who were waiting in the Ruyi Sky Patrol Ship.

After Duan Yuwei, Xiao Zier and others appeared, they quickly gathered the Liu family cultivators and joined forces with the Tianchi Holy Land cultivators to hunt down the scattered crab demons.

Liu Changxu remained silent throughout, standing proudly in the void with his hands behind his back, his robes fluttering slightly in the fierce wind. His gaze, like that of a hawk, was fixed on the battle below, paying attention to both the casualties of his own cultivators and whether the crab demons showed any signs of a counterattack.

Although he did not leak any spiritual power, he had an invisible pressure that enveloped the surrounding area, like a pillar that stabilized the sea, calming the human cultivators fighting below and adding to the fear of the remaining crab demons.

The chase had become a one-sided crushing defeat. Under the joint extermination of the two major forces, the originally rampant crab demon horde was wiped out like the receding tide, leaving only scattered howls and the crisp sounds of magical weapons colliding, which gradually dissipated on the sea surface.
