"Heh, I don't even need my spirit rings to deal with such a little thing..."
Before he could finish speaking, the elder of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect suddenly opened his eyes wide and hurriedly used his soul power to activate a protective shield.
At the same time, his arms began to transform into dragons, and spirit rings gradually appeared beneath his feet.
Before he could even use the power of his spirit rings, the arrow pierced through his protective shield and went straight through his chest!
The arrow pierced the wound, and finally struck the wall firmly.
Some drops of blood trickled down from the arrowhead, making a "drip-drip" sound.
All of this happened so fast that everyone present was shocked.
The elder of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect looked on in disbelief. He stiffly lowered his head and looked at the small blood hole in his heart.
"This, this is..."
Huanming put away the Zhuge Crossbow and said calmly, "It wouldn't have been enough to kill you, but you underestimated me."
This is just an ordinary Zhuge crossbow; it's fine for dealing with Great Soul Masters, but it's absolutely no match for Soul Emperors.
To unleash its inherent power, it must rely on external forces, namely the several meridians of Huanming.
Even with the amplification from the Zhuge Crossbow and the three meridians, it couldn't harm the Soul Emperor.
However, if you add the three pulse points of the Sky-Piercing Spear, it would be enough to threaten the Soul Emperor's life.
After this period of training, and with the opening of the third meridian, Huanming can now use the power of the Sky-Piercing Spear without losing control.
But he dared not use it too much, because he was afraid of becoming reliant on the power of the Sky-Piercing Spear.
Huanming estimated that if this Soul Emperor had been on high alert from the beginning, he would at most be injured now.
However, he was far too careless, arrogant, and dismissive of everyone.
His martial spirit has not yet been released, his spirit rings have not yet been used, and even his spirit power, which belongs to the level of a Soul Emperor, has not yet been condensed.
The result was obvious: he paid the ultimate price.
"Bang!"
The corpse of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect elder crashed to the ground, and only then did Xue Qinghe and Zhu Zhuyun come to their senses.
"How dare you! You actually dared to kill an elder of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect!"
Xue Qinghe's expression shifted between light and dark. "Offending both the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect at the same time is courting your own destruction."
"Didn't you two see how he died?" Huanming retorted.
"This thing in your hand is indeed strange, but such a weapon is absolutely impossible to mass-produce," Zhu Zhuyun said with certainty.
Huanming nodded, without denying it.
Indeed, it is highly unlikely that a Zhuge Crossbow capable of defeating a Soul Emperor could be created.
However, creating the Zhuge Crossbow to deal with Great Soul Masters was not difficult.
Zhu Zhuyun said this simply because she was stunned and overlooked the question of who the user was.
"Your Majesty, King of Slaughter, is this something you tacitly approve of?" Zhu Zhuyun asked.
Xue Qinghe said calmly, "It seems we won't be able to leave the City of Slaughter anytime soon."
"Haha, don't worry, I won't attack you. I just want you two to watch a good show."
The voice of the King of Slaughter came from inside the royal carriage.
"What's the show?"
"Hehe, please stay in the City of Slaughter for the time being. Don't worry, no one will harm you."

A month later, as expected, all the major powers assembled their armies.
Their goal is the same: to head towards the killing capital.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan led the team, followed by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, with the other forces following suit.
The day they set off was a grand and earth-shattering event.
According to preliminary statistics, the army that attacked the Killing City numbered no less than 100,000, and the number of Soul Masters exceeded 3,000!
Such an army would be more than capable of conquering a kingdom, let alone a city of slaughter.
This is the power of the alliance of major forces. When they are completely united, even the Spirit Hall will have to think twice.
Wherever the army goes, not a blade of grass grows!
The Killing City has now been established as a city.
Huanming and Yunsha stood on the city wall, gazing at the army that stretched as far as the eye could see.
The sky was filled with black smoke, as if a dark cloud was approaching.
"Ha, now that the enemy is at our gates, I advise you to let us go."
Zhu Zhuyun and Xue Qinghe walked over, gloating.
During their month in the killing city, they didn't suffer any mistreatment; on the contrary, they enjoyed life to the fullest.
They hadn't felt this relaxed in a long time.
Huanming said calmly, "We haven't even started fighting yet, and you're already assuming we'll lose?"
"Heh, your Slaughter City only has 10,000 troops right now, all of them ordinary people, and you don't even have twenty Soul Masters. The other side is the Soul Master Alliance, with thousands of Soul Masters and tens of thousands of troops!" Zhu Zhuyun sneered.
"Is there any need to fight? No matter how you look at it, your Slaughter City is doomed to lose. You might as well let us go now and surrender."
Xue Qinghe nodded: "That's right. At that time, we might have been able to turn a blind eye and spare the civilians of the Slaughter City."
"No need for you to worry, just wait and see," Yun Sha said calmly.
Currently, three thousand civilians have been equipped with Zhuge crossbows, and it's really hard to say who will emerge victorious.
Only a few thousand Soul Masters in the Alliance are truly threatening, but Huanming said he has his own ways of dealing with them.
Following Kuiba, whether they win or lose, the people of the Slaughter City will have no regrets.
Huanming asked, "Sister Yunsha, how are the preparations going?"
"No problem, the three thousand archers are ready."
"Did I hear that right? Three thousand archers?!"
Zhu Zhuyun was taken aback. She knew that the archers of the Killing City were completely different from those of other forces.
Archers from other factions are equipped with bows and arrows, but archers from the Killing City are equipped with those "iron lumps".
Just how devastating the "iron lump" was, Xue Qinghe and Zhu Zhuyun had witnessed it a month ago.
If the City of Slaughter truly has three thousand archers, then the outcome of this war becomes somewhat uncertain.
Xue Qinghe remained calm. "If I'm not mistaken, you two siblings are the ones in charge of the Killing City, aren't you?"
Over the past month, she has figured it out: the King of Slaughter has absolutely no real power.
Yun Sha made all the decisions, and she often asked Kui Ba for his opinion.
The King of Slaughter is more like a puppet.
Although he didn't know how the siblings managed to become the King of Slaughter in a fictional world, Xue Qinghe had great confidence in his judgment.
The current ruler of the Killing City is definitely not the King of Slaughter!
Huanming smiled faintly: "That's not important. How about I make a bet with His Highness the Crown Prince?"
"What kind of bet?"
"Let's bet that even the City of Slaughter can't defeat the Soul Master Alliance."
"Judging from your attitude, it seems you've already won?" Xue Qinghe sneered and said, "Fine, I'll take your bet."
Zhu Zhuyun added, "Count me in too. Hmph, if the City of Slaughter loses, you'll be at our disposal. If we lose, you can do whatever you want with us. How about that? Fair enough?"
Huanming nodded slightly: "I completely agree."
