Chapter 775 The Battle of the Eight Treasures Tower!
Chapter 775 The Battle of the Eight Treasures Tower!
The witch opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something more, but just then, a whooshing sound suddenly came from outside the restaurant.
The sounds were dense and rapid, indicating that quite a few people had arrived.
The witch frowned and looked out through the window. She saw dozens of figures flying in from all directions and landing around the Eight Treasures Restaurant, completely surrounding the restaurant.
Shi Hao smirked, picked up his wine glass and downed it in one gulp, laughing, "These guys really came fast."
The witch turned to look at him, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes: "You knew all along that someone would come to kill you?"
Shi Hao shook his head, put down his wine glass, and said calmly, "I don't know, but the bounty on me by the Immortal Palace is no secret. I had already exposed my identity outside. Those who know about the bounty will definitely gather their companions to ambush and kill me. So I thought I would wait for them to come to me. Rather than hiding, I might as well just wait for them here."
The witch looked at him, her eyes filled with complexity: "Aren't you afraid of messing things up? You should know that those who can enter the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm are the first generation and geniuses of their respective races, and there are even ancient freaks among them. There are quite a few cultivators coming to the Eight Treasures Pavilion this time. What if there are any powerful figures among them that you can't handle?"
Shi Hao shrugged dismissively.
He stood up and stretched his wrists: "In this world, apart from Brother Zhu Chen, I have never been afraid of anyone of my generation. Let alone those scoundrels outside, even if the successor of the Immortal Palace came in person, I would not be afraid."
The witch looked at Shi Hao in silence for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "You're just like your older brother, quite confident."
Shi Hao smiled but didn't reply.
He raised his hand and waved it, and the Void War Halberd suddenly appeared in his palm. Then he leaped up and crashed through the roof of the Eight Treasures Pavilion, rushing out.
"--boom!!!"
Broken tiles flew everywhere, and smoke and dust filled the air.
Shi Hao landed on the roof of the Eight Treasures Pavilion and scanned the surroundings, only to find that the outside was already crowded with people.
These people, dressed in various colorful clothes and holding various magical implements, surrounded the entire Bazhen Tower, making it impossible to move.
Shi Hao roughly counted and found that there were more than a hundred people here. Most of them were assassins sent by the Immortal Palace, and some were the first generation of various races who came because of the bounty issued by the Immortal Palace.
Most of them came from the Underworld, Sword Valley, and the Demon Dragon Sect.
"It's him...it's Shi Hao!"
"Wilderness...it really is wilderness!"
"Hahaha, it's like finding a needle in a haystack! If we capture him today, the Immortal Palace's generous reward will be ours!"
"Stop wasting time talking to him, everyone attack together!"
Upon seeing Shi Hao emerge from the building, the people immediately began to chatter amongst themselves, their eyes filled with greed.
At this moment, a man in black suddenly stepped forward, looked at Shi Hao and said coldly, "Shi Hao, if you know what's good for you, you'd better bind yourself and come with us. Otherwise, we'll annihilate you today!"
Shi Hao looked at them, a disdainful smile immediately appearing on his lips: "You bunch of ugly bastards, you dare to try and kill me?"
The man in black's face darkened: "You're courting death! Everyone, attack together and follow me to wipe out this entire guild!"
At his command, nearly a hundred cultivators who had been waiting impatiently immediately attacked.
Various magical artifacts and powerful techniques rained down on Shi Hao, dazzling in color and possessing astonishing momentum.
The roof of the Eight Treasures Pavilion collapsed instantly under the bombardment of everyone's magical techniques.
Gravel flew everywhere, and dust filled the air.
However, facing the fierce attacks of these people, Shi Hao did not retreat but advanced instead.
He raised the Void Battle Halberd in his hand and swung it forward, and a golden halberd beam swept out.
"--boom!!!"
The halberd's edge pierced through the air, shattering the magical artifacts and powerful techniques that the people had offered.
The few cultivators at the forefront were unlucky and were struck by the halberd light unleashed by Shi Hao. Their bodies exploded instantly, turning into clouds of blood mist.
Soon, screams of agony echoed across the field.
Those behind him, seeing that Shi Hao could kill several first-generation figures with a single move, were so frightened that they retreated repeatedly.
"Is this all the skill you have with so many of you?"
Shi Hao snorted coldly, his figure flashed, and he rushed into the crowd without hesitation. His speed was extremely fast, and the wings of the Kunpeng spread out behind him, like a golden lightning bolt weaving through the crowd.
With each swing of his Void Halberd, several people would fall to the ground.
Although the number of cultivators opposite them was large, they were as fragile as paper in front of Shi Hao and could not resist him at all.
"How...how can he be so strong?"
"Don't be afraid, he's alone, but there are many of us!"
"Yes... kill him, kill him... the Immortal Palace's huge reward is ours!"
Many people were so frightened that they turned and ran away.
But some people got greedy and rushed forward at the risk of their lives, hoping to make a fortune through danger.
Of course, there were also some people in the crowd who liked to sneak around like Han Li.
They would hide behind others and then, at the opportune moment, secretly launch a sneak attack.
But no matter who it is, anyone who gets close to Shi Hao will only have one fate.
That is death.
In the short time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Shi Hao killed most of the nearly one hundred cultivators.
The remaining people were so frightened that they dared not go forward again and turned to run away.
"Now you know to leave? Too late..."
Shi Hao sneered, gripped his halberd, and slammed it into the ground.
"——Thunder Emperor's Treasure Technique: Thunderbolt!!!"
In an instant, a thick bolt of golden lightning descended from the sky and struck the crowd.
"—Boom!!!"
Thunder exploded, transforming into countless tiny arcs of electricity that spread through the crowd.
Anyone struck by the electric arc will instantly stiffen, cough up blood, and collapse to the ground.
A few of the stronger first generation fighters might be able to barely withstand the lightning, but they would inevitably suffer serious injuries.
"Didn't you offer a reward for my capture? Why did you run away?"
Shi Hao stood amidst the chaos, covered in blood, but all the blood belonged to others.
He watched the fleeing figures with disdain in his eyes.
When Qin Hao belatedly rushed out of the Eight Treasures Pavilion...
Shi Hao had already dealt with most of the people here.
"Brother, what happened here? Why did you fight with these people?"
Qin Hao looked at Shi Hao with a puzzled expression and asked.
The time it took Shi Hao to emerge from the broken building and kill those first-generation cultivators was too short.
Even now, Qin Hao still doesn't understand what happened!
Shi Hao smiled and turned back to Qin Hao, saying, "These people were all lackeys sent by the Immortal Palace, but I've suppressed them all now..."
Qin Hao was startled upon hearing this.
He opened his mouth, as if to say something more, but the witch flew out from the broken rooftop.
The witch landed beside Shi Hao, looked at the corpses scattered on the ground below, and said in a playful tone, "You killed nearly a hundred first-generation and prodigies by yourself. Aren't you afraid of offending a lot of people?"
Shi Hao sneered: "So what if I've offended them? They wanted to kill me anyway, and if I don't kill them, they'll kill me anyway... In that case, I'll kill them first..."
