Primordial Era: Starting with slaughtering all the gods and Buddhas in the sky
Chapter 77 Flipping the Table
"Primordial Era: Starting with Slaughtering All Gods and Buddhas" is full of classic quotes, come and find resonance.
Huang Chen slid down the shadow of the stands, his feet stepping on the cold, wet steps without making a sound.
The backstage area was darker than the front, with the bone lamps hanging low, their greenish light making the wooden railings and white bone beams look as if they were soaking in corpse water.
Two servant boys were carrying a black lacquered tray, hurrying it in from the side corridor.
The tray was covered with half a gray cloth, and under the corner of the cloth was a piece of bone with a broken edge. The bone had an ancient texture and faint lines like the veins of a valley.
Huang Chen's eyelids twitched slightly.
that's it.
He didn't move immediately. Instead, he pressed the price indicator into his palm and listened to the sound of water around him.
There are array patterns on the bottom of the pool.
Not in one place.
There are three main eyes under the front bone platform, one behind the prison bars in the back, and another in the center of the waterside pavilion. They are all connected by soul threads that are so thin they are almost invisible. They are usually hidden by the black water, but once a big deal is made, the entire Skeleton Moon Pool can be transferred to deliver the goods on the spot.
No wonder they dare to sell living people and incomplete maps here.
Huang Chen slowly exhaled, and even the tip of his tongue could taste the fishy smell of water.
Someone ahead of us is already urging us on.
"Hurry up and send it in, don't keep the broker waiting."
"This is the grand finale tonight. If we delay any longer, you two might lose your legs."
'
The two slave boys responded repeatedly, their shoulders trembling.
Huang Chen pressed himself against the pillar, his gaze sweeping across the main viewpoint and then across the four corners of the pool, mentally pinpointing each location.
The next moment, the front field suddenly fell silent for a beat.
The female priestess's smiling voice came from outside.
"Gentlemen, this is the last item."
"It's not a demon bone, not a human product, and not a secret artifact."
'
"It is the road."
Her words immediately caused a stir in the audience.
Someone inhaled.
Someone muttered curses.
Some people even stood up, the wooden chairs rubbing against the bone platform, making a piercing sound.
Huang Chen didn't wait any longer.
He flipped his hand out of his sleeve, and the Wind-Stabilizing Pearl was already in his palm.
step.
Two steps.
By the time he landed his third step, he had already crashed out of the shadows.
Before the two slave boys could react, the trays on their shoulders were blown away by a tremendous force, the gray cloth exploded, and the fragment tumbled in mid-air before Huang Chen reached out and grabbed it.
"who--"
As soon as one of the boys opened his mouth, Huang Chen slapped him on the side of the neck with his backhand.
Click.
He went limp.
The other person slumped to the ground, his face turning blue, and screamed shrilly.
"Someone is robbing us!"
Someone—
Huang Chen kicked him into the wooden railing, causing the entire side corridor to tremble.
The shouts finally pierced the entire stadium.
The female cultivator on the bone platform outside suddenly turned around, and the White Bone Fang Master also raised his face in the waterside pavilion.
Their eyes met across the half-pool of black water.
Huang Chen is no longer covering up.
He ripped off the gray bone mask, flicked the black wind cap backward, and the wind-fixing pearl in his palm suddenly shone brightly.
"Press!"
The sound was like something crashing into the bottom of a pool.
The black waves that were crashing against the shore suddenly stopped, as if the entire Moon Lake had been pressed down by an invisible giant hand. The undulating water surface was instantly flattened, and even the undercurrents under the waterside pavilion froze for a moment.
The next moment, the teleportation bone arrays at the four corners of the pool bottom simultaneously emitted a piercing crackling sound.
The bone patterns lit up, then abruptly went out.
The frontcourt was initially dead silent, then erupted into chaos.
"The teleportation array is broken!"
"Damn it, it's Huang Chen!"
'
"Stop him!"
Huang Chen didn't turn around at all.
The Pulsefire Battlefield suddenly unfolded beneath his feet, with dark red flames shooting out along the bone steps, the grandstand, and the railings of the waterside pavilion, like a layer of blood-stained light enveloping the entire auction house.
The green flames of the bone lamps flickered wildly under pressure, and the entire white bone-covered stands were stained crimson.
The female monk in charge of the price finally changed her expression and shouted sharply.
"Support the market!"
Unlock the Soul Lamp!
Just as the two evil cultivators protecting the bone market pounced down, Huang Chen made the first move.
He swung his fist and slammed it head-on into the main bone platform in front of him.
boom!
The entire auction platform was half-collapsed by a single punch.
The bone beams, beast-head railings, and hanging bone chains all collapsed downwards. The few buyers from the demon market who were peeking out to inspect the goods on the platform didn't even have time to scream properly before they were crushed into the debris by the collapsing bone plates and the force of the fists.
One head exploded on the spot.
Another one had its sternum completely shattered, with half of its body hanging from the broken bone beam, blood flowing down the white bones.
"Huang Chen!"
One buyer roared and unleashed a black hook magic weapon. Just as it levitated half a foot into the air, Huang Chen grabbed the collapsed bone pillar and swept it across.
Snapped!
The demon cultivator was whipped so hard he tumbled three times in the air before crashing into the bone lamp stand by the pool. Enveloped in green flames, he fluttered twice and then fell silent.
The scene was completely chaotic.
People fled.
The demon dived into the water.
Several buyers, in a fit of rage, lunged at the back bars, attempting to seize the hostages.
Huang Chen stomped his foot, and a crimson line suddenly shot up from the Pulse Fire Battle Domain, directly cutting off their path.
The intense force forced them to retreat in a sorry state.
"Kill the gang leader first!"
"We can't let him take the Heavenly Plate away!"
'
Someone shouted something.
The White Bone Fang Master had already stood up from the waterside pavilion.
His face, as pale as a corpse, showed no sign of panic. He simply placed the bone book aside and flicked his fingers repeatedly.
Click click click click.
The four walls of the waterside pavilion simultaneously burst open.
Pages of human bone ledgers, three pale blue soul lamps, seven thin chains, and the fragment flew out together, rapidly piecing together in front of him, instantly forming a pale white bone disc.
"Huang Chen".
'
The White Bone Fang Master stared at him, his voice thin and cold.
"You've come at the perfect time."
'
"I've always wanted to see just how tough the bones that come out of the Valley of Firewood are."
Huang Chen stuffed the fragment into his pocket and walked towards him step by step.
"You'll be able to touch it soon."
White Bone Tooth Master pulled out the dough and his hand gestures changed abruptly.
"rise!"
The celestial compass of the bone market suddenly spun.
The chain comes out first.
Seven bone chains whistled through the air, heading straight for Huang Chen's limbs and neck. The chains were also wrapped with wisps of dark blue soul fire, which made people's scalps tingle even before they got close.
Huang Chen did not flash.
The dark yellow armor clung to his body and emerged, meeting his fist head-on.
boom!boom!
boom!
He smashed the first three bone chains off course, but the fourth one grazed his shoulder blade and wrapped around his left arm with a snap.
At the same instant, the fifth and sixth chains rolled up from his feet and tightly bound his legs.
The soul fire drilled into the flesh along the joint, and a searing pain immediately shot through the skin and flesh.
The White Bone Fang Master laughed.
"town!
'
The fragment in the center of the celestial plate suddenly lit up.
Huang Chen felt a weight on his chest, as if a mountain was pressing down on him, and the bone steps beneath his feet were even cracked inch by inch by the pressure.
Behind the row of wooden bars at the back, a dozen or so imprisoned humans began to cry out.
"Don't, don't burn it over here!"
'
"Help!"
There are children over there!
'
Huang Chen glanced at him sideways.
People were curled up in the prison cells, their hands and feet hooked with thin bone hooks. There were two more wooden cages at the very back, with soul-sealing paper pasted on the cage doors.
If the Pulsefire Battlefield is fully opened, that area will be the first to suffer.
His eyes darkened, and he pressed down with his right hand.
The red stripes that were expanding suddenly contracted, bypassing the prison bars, and circled around the perimeter like half a net of fire.
The Fiery Red Lotus then appeared behind him, its shadow turning and directly enveloping the backstage cage, protecting that area.
The old man in the prison cell hugged the child next to him, looked up at the fiery lotus protective curtain, and his voice became hoarse.
"It's him..."
"We've come to rescue people!"
'
When the White Bone Fang Master saw this, his face finally turned ugly.
"You still have the energy to protect others?"
'
"court death!"
The Bone Market Heavenly Plate trembled violently, and the three Soul Lamps simultaneously spewed fire.
The bluish-white ghost flames condensed into three twisted ghost faces, rushing straight at Huang Chen's face.
Huang Chen's chest bulged, his internal energy surged, and witch patterns lit up inch by inch along his neck and the back of his hands.
He lunged forward.
It's not retreating, it's charging forward despite the chains.
click!
The bone chain wrapped around his left arm was stretched taut, causing the joints to crack.
Another step.
The bone steps beneath my feet all exploded.
The White Bone Fang Master's expression changed slightly. He made hand seals faster and faster, and the celestial disc spun so fast that it became a beam of white light. The fragment was also sent little by little towards the center of the disc. He really wanted to use this last moment to transmit the trace of the torch.
Huang Chen saw it.
Only one thought remained in my mind.
We can't let it go.
He let out a low growl, and with a burst of strength in both arms, the two bone chains binding his legs were first pulled off the ground. Then, like a ferocious beast crashing into a mountain, he dragged the chains straight towards the waterside pavilion.
Along the way, the bone railings, low tables, and spirit lamp stands were all smashed to pieces.
A wicked cultivator protecting the bone market stepped in to block him, raising his bone fork, but Huang Chen grabbed his face with his hand.
boom!
The man's entire face was pressed into the pillar, and wood chips and bone fragments sprayed out together.
Another evil cultivator unleashed a poisoned needle from the side.
Huang Chen didn't even turn his head as the Asura Blood Blade swept across.
A flash of blood, and the man's throat opened first, followed by half of his neck sliding off.
Only the White Bone Tooth Master remained in front of the waterside pavilion.
Stop!
'
He screamed and slammed his hands on the celestial plate.
"deliver!
'
Update released! Readers have all gone to check it out!
A beam of pale white light burst forth from the center of the celestial disc, carrying the fragment as it soared into the sky.
Huang Chen swung his right fist in a wide arc, imbued with pulse fire and blood energy, and punched the pillar of light.
boom!
The fist struck the center of the plate.
The entire Bone City trembled violently, the ledgers at the edges exploded first, and human bones, like paper pages, flew everywhere.
The three soul lamps exploded simultaneously, their ghostly flames surging back and burning half of the waterside pavilion with crackling sounds.
The White Bone Tooth Master coughed up blood, but still tried to hold on, his ten fingers gripping the main shaft tightly.
Huang Chen had already reached him.
The two were only one step apart.
The White Bone Fang Master's pale face contorted in agony, and suddenly a bone awl shot out from his sleeve, aiming straight for Huang Chen's eye socket.
Huang Chen turned his head to let him pass, and grabbed his wrist with his left hand.
Click.
The wrist bone was crushed directly.
Before the White Bone Fang Master's scream could even finish, Huang Chen's knee strike had already hit his lower abdomen, lifting him half a foot off the ground.
"How many people did you sell?"
Huang Chen's voice was low, as if it were being squeezed out from between his teeth.
Blood was gushing from the mouth of the White Bone Fang Master, yet he was still laughing.
"you guess.
'
"For you humans, the most valuable thing is your ability to survive."
Huang Chen didn't ask any more questions.
He grabbed the main axis of the bone market plate with both hands at the same time, his shoulder and back muscles bulged, and he suddenly tore it apart.
crunch--
The sound sent chills down everyone's spine.
The main shaft bends first, then breaks.
The entire celestial plate seemed to have its spine removed, with the array patterns scattering inch by inch. Fragments popped out from the center of the plate and were caught by Huang Chen with his backhand.
The next moment, the entire celestial disc collapsed with a deafening roar.
Broken bones, ashes, ledger pages, and chains flew everywhere.
The White Bone Tooth Master, like a tattered sack being devoured, fell straight backward.
Huang Chen caught up and grabbed him by the neck, dragging him outside.
The white-bones railing was smashed.
The two of them plunged into the black water at the edge of the pool.
Huang Chen pinned him down, pounding his fists down repeatedly.
The first punch broke his nose.
The second punch sent teeth flying, mixed with blood.
The third punch sent half his face sinking into the black water and mud.
The fourth punch, the fifth punch, the sixth punch...
All sounds from the pool seemed distant.
All that remained was the dull thud of a fist smashing into bones.
Bang.
Bang.
Bang.
The black water rippled outwards in circles, mixed with bone fragments and bits of flesh.
At first, the White Bone Fang Master was twitching, but later he could only struggle instinctively. By the tenth punch, a piece of his skull had been crushed, and the two human teeth by his ears broke off and sank into the mud.
Huang Chen delivered his final punch, and his body finally stopped moving.
【Ding!
The system has detected that the host has slain the gravely guilty target, "Master of the White Bone Fang Sect"!
【Ding!
Side quest "Overturn the Moon Lake" completed!
[Mission Objective 1: Slay the White Bone Fang Master, completed.]
】
[Mission Objective 2: Destroy the Bone Market's Heavenly Plateau. Completed.]
[Mission Objective 3: Rescue live auction items, completed.]
】
[Rewards: 32000 Karma, 15000 Merit, and one random gold lottery draw.]
When the system notification rang in his mind, the order of the Skeleton Moon Pool completely collapsed.
Without the Heavenly Plate to hold them back, the remaining buyers and evil cultivators could only flee.
Someone rushed out and crashed into the Pulsefire Battle Zone, getting scalded and rolling on the ground.
Someone jumped into the water, causing the bone teleportation array at the bottom of the pool to malfunction, and they were instead swept into a pile of broken bones by the turbulent current.
The female cultivator, her hair disheveled, fled along the side bridge. Before she had run more than a few steps, Huang Chen grabbed a broken chain from a distance and threw it away.
The iron snake-like bone chain shot through the air and wrapped directly around her waist.
"ah--"
She screamed as she was dragged back to the ground.
Huang Chen walked over through the water and stepped on her chest.
"Prison Key Symbol".
'
The female nun was bleeding from the corner of her mouth, and her makeup was smeared on her face, but she still tried to be stubborn.
"Even if you kill me, I will still do it—"
Huang Chen increased the pressure on his feet.
The sternum creaked.
She finally broke down and hurriedly threw out a string of bone keys from her sleeve.
"There it is! The Soul-Sealing Paper is under the counter!"
'
Huang Chen picked up the bone key, shattered her dantian with a backhand slap, and threw her aside.
The people in the back-end cells had all crowded to the edge of the bars.
The rescued woman, identified as A, was holding a seven- or eight-year-old child. Her eyes were red and her hands were trembling.
"My benefactor... save the child first, the child is dying."
'
Huang Chen opened the first cell, and as soon as the bone lock fell, the person inside practically crawled out.
The old man in the prison cell still had half a hook chain hanging from his leg, but he turned his head and pointed to the wooden cage in the innermost cell.
"There are two more there; they were just brought in today!"
Huang Chen rushed into the innermost room and tore off the soul-sealing paper.
Inside the wooden cage, a boy lay unconscious, while another little girl huddled in a corner. When she saw him reach out, she was so frightened that she backed away.
Don't be afraid.
'
Huang Chen lowered his voice.
"come out.
'
The little girl stared at the layer of karmic fire lotus behind him, then looked at the crowd crying and shouting outside, and finally slowly crawled over.
Huang Chen snapped the cage door in half and pulled both of them out.
The fire outside has already started.
The collapsed bone platform, the overturned soul lamp, and the broken railings were all crackling and popping, and the firelight made the black water by the pool turn red.
Huang Chen quickly scanned the area and shooed those who could leave out first.
Those who can walk, go first.
'
"Follow the outer edge of the Red Lotus, and don't touch the white bone array patterns on the ground."
"Carry the seriously injured up."
'
The old man in the prison cell immediately responded.
"Listen to him!"
Don't panic!
The rescued woman, A, gritted her teeth and carried the child on her back.
Several humans who had just escaped were helping each other, dragging the more seriously injured forward.
Huang Chen walked to the pile of Heavenly Disc fragments and squatted down to search through them.
Sure enough, beneath the shattered main shaft, he found a bone slip that had not been completely destroyed.
The bone tablet was extremely thin, yet it contained a series of acquisition numbers and transshipment locations. The bottom line was stained with blood, but a few words could still be discerned.
Outside the City of Ten Thousand Demons.
General ledger.
Huang Chen's eyes darkened, and he carefully put away the bone slip and the fragment together.
The female cultivator wasn't quite dead yet; she was crawling on the ground, trying to get out.
She heard footsteps, turned around abruptly, and her face was covered in dust.
"Don't kill me... I know the signposts in the outer city, I know—"
Huang Chen didn't say anything.
The Asura Blood Blade swept past in a flash.
All that remained on the ground was convulsions.
More shouts from the demon cultivators could be heard from outside the pool, indicating that those on the outskirts of the Skeleton Moon Pool had noticed the change.
Something's happened inside!
'
"Close the road! Don't let Huang Chen get away!"
'
Huang Chen turned and left, leading the rescued people out through the back corridor.
Along the way, bone lamps exploded one after another.
The overhead wooden beams were charred black, and ashes fell down.
The boy who had been knocked unconscious earlier woke up and, seeing the corpses on the ground, was so frightened that he covered his head and huddled in the corner, not daring to utter a sound.
Huang Chen walked past him without even glancing at him.
Outside the back corridor is a narrow stone path built along the pool.
When the night wind blew, the nose was filled with the smell of burnt bones and blood.
The fire behind them had already engulfed half of the waterside pavilion, making the bone bells ring wildly.
"The old man in the prison cell asked, panting heavily."
"My benefactor, which way?"
'
Huang Chen raised his hand and pointed to the low cliff on the west side.
"There's a crack over there, leading down to a dry ditch."
'
"quick."
The crowd immediately stumbled and followed.
One of the children was walking slowly, and the rescued woman A practically dragged him along.
Huang Chen retreated, raising his hand as he unleashed two bursts of flames, blasting half of the stone path behind him into collapse.
The pebbles rolled into the pool, temporarily blocking the pursuit.
Only after the last human had climbed down the low cliff did he turn back for a glance.
The entire Moon Lake is burning.
The white bone viewing platform collapsed in one ring, half of the waterside pavilion sank, and flames floated on the surface of the black water, like a layer of flowing blood light.
The wind still carried the lingering echoes of the auction's unfinished calls, the curses of the fleeing demon cultivators, and the deafening crash of a snapping wooden beam.
Huang Chen withdrew his gaze and jumped down.
The dry ditch was full of gravel and hard mud, making it very slippery to walk on.
He first helped the seriously injured to their feet, then took out two Qi-replenishing pills, broke them into pieces, and gave them to the two people with the weakest breaths to suck on.
The old man in the prison cell leaned against the stone wall and wiped the dust off his face.
"Thank you... thank you so much, my benefactor."
'
Huang Chen took the fragment out again and looked at it once more.
The originally blurry bone patterns on the back of the fragment, after being activated by the Heavenly Disc, revealed a deeper directional line, which subtly corresponded to the name of the general account on the bone slip.
He put the things back into his pocket, and when he looked up, the night in front of him was as dark as ink.
The firelight behind them cast long shadows on the cliff face.
A little girl suddenly tugged at his clothes from behind.
Huang Chen lowered his head.
She handed me a small domino that she had been clutching in the cage until now, her fingers white with cold.
"This... was stuffed into my clothes by a bad guy."
'
Huang Chen took it and looked at it.
The back of the dominoes was stained with black grime, but the front was engraved with half of the Demon Market mark, and there was also a very fine transfer number on the corner.
The wind blew in from the mouth of the ditch, making the dominoes in his hand make a soft, crisp sound.
