"Bang!"
A dense rain of fire arrows bombarded the wind wall, only to shatter instantly.
"Pfft!!"
The sand serpent army instantly spat out blood, their faces pale. Without time to breathe, they raised their refining hooks, frantically striking at the incoming fire arrows.
"Boom!!"
"Boom!!"
The Southern Bright Fire surged, and coupled with the sheer number of arrows, they couldn't possibly fend off the dense barrage.
"Bang!!"
"Ah!!"
Arrows burning with the Southern Bright Fire, dodging the refining hooks of the sand serpent soldiers, mercilessly pierced their chests.
"Sizzle!!"
"Boom!!"
As the fire arrows struck, no blood splattered. The fierce Southern Bright Fire instantly vaporized the blood into a thin mist.
"Ah!!"
"Save me, save me!!"
In an instant, large swathes of sand serpent soldiers fell. Those whose vital spots were missed were engulfed in layers of crimson flames. Their earthy brown skin turned instantly black, revealing the bones beneath.
"Quick, extinguish the flames!!"
Some soldiers, terrified by the sight of their comrades consumed by fire, roared in desperation, trying to put out the raging Southern Bright Fire.
"Swish!!"
"Ah!!"
As some touched the flames, their bodies were instantly devoured. Their massive heads were rapidly burned, losing skin and flesh, revealing the skull, which turned black and gradually turned to dust.
All of this happened in a flash!!
"Run!!"
Sha Zi felt utterly powerless. The sand serpent tribe had resided in the desert for millennia, weathering countless storms, and had gradually become the overlords of the Northern Desert. Never had they felt so helpless.
"Ah!!"
Lives turned to dust before his eyes. His expression shifted from terror to ferocity. The refining hook in his hand dripped with blood.
"I'll fight you to the death!!"
Sha Zi roared, his eyes fixed on Liao Hua, who sat calmly on his warhorse not far away.
He raised his refining hook, applying immense force forward, instantly conjuring a sand wall several zhang high. With a sweep of the hook, it was like a flash of light in a world of yellow sand. Young as he was, he had already reached the Divine Mansion realm and was considered a strong contender for the next tribal chief, possessing extraordinary talent.
The hook's chilling gleam shattered countless fire arrows. Like a vicious viper, it weaved through the barrage and shot towards Liao Hua.
"Hmph!"
Liao Hua snorted coldly and ascended into the air. His three-pointed saber emitted a chilling gleam, unleashing a powerful aura and surging killing intent. His saber moved like a brilliant galaxy, slashing down fiercely!
The saber's edge was as swift as lightning, sharp and carrying immense power. It instantly pushed aside the vast expanse of yellow sand, causing even the dense rain of fire arrows in the air to tremble slightly!
The saber's light cut through the thick, sandy void, like a silver river tearing through the heavens. Thunder roared, and saber light crisscrossed! Su Dan Novel Network
"Boom!!"
A thunderous sound erupted. Rolling waves of energy churned up the heavy, pervasive yellow sand that swept across the sky. The three-pointed saber shattered the cold gleam of the refining hook, blasting Sha Zi back hundreds of zhang!
"Hummm~~"
Sha Zi gripped his trembling refining hook, his entire arm bleeding. He looked up at Liao Hua, who stood serenely in the air, clad in his crimson Vermillion Bird general's armor, appearing like a god of war standing amidst a sea of blood.
Sha Zi's pupils quivered as he watched his army engulfed by the strange sea of flames. Who was this person, appearing as if from the heavens!
"Who are you?"
Sha Zi continuously circulated the yuan force within him, nourishing his wounded arm, and fixed his gaze on the imposing man holding the three-pointed saber.
"Liao Hua, Vanguard General of the Vermillion Bird Legion of the Great Han Dynasty!"
Killing intent permeated the air, pressing down on Sha Zi like nine layers of heavy mountains!
"Great Han!!"
"Why do you invade my Tianfeng?"
Sha Zi continued to stall, adjusting his state.
"Ching!!"
Liao Hua twirled his three-pointed saber. "You talk too much!"
Liao Hua stepped forward, saber in hand. The blade vibrated, emitting a dragon's roar. Saber light flashed, and fiery streams bloomed. Instantly, layers of Southern Bright Fire enveloped the entire saber edge. With a boom, the clouds above the vast yellow sand were torn apart.
Swish!
The saber's light cut through the blood-soaked yellow sand like a thunderclap, earth-shattering and tearing the sky, causing the yellow sand to wail like ghosts!
"Boom!"
Facing the sweeping fiery saber light, Sha Zi's expression became grim, his facial muscles twitching. "Damn it!"
His body exploded forward, and a thousand-zhang-long phantom of a yellow serpent slowly materialized in the air, exuding an overwhelming aura that swept through the nine heavens!
The massive yellow serpent, shimmering with a bloody yellow hue, churned like a sea. The cold gleam of its blood-red hook spanned the sky, like divine thunder from the highest heavens, exploding outward!
"Roar!!"
Sha Zi roared in fury. Layers of scales appeared on his face. Blood dripped from the hand gripping the refining hook. Suddenly, his arm swelled, and a hook-shaped light, like a lightning snake, shot through the void and streaked towards Liao Hua!
"Boom!"
A colossal mushroom cloud of yellow sand rose into the sky, mixed with wisps of Southern Bright Fire, obscuring heaven and earth, churning the wind and clouds!
In an instant, countless bodies of sand serpent soldiers were swallowed by the sandstorm!
"Boom!!"
Liao Hua burst out from the yellow sand mushroom cloud, his three-pointed saber igniting layers of sparks, causing the sandy void to rumble!
Liao Hua's expression remained calm. He flicked his right hand, wielding the three-pointed saber, and forcefully swung it towards the yellow sand mushroom cloud. Instantly, crescent-shaped saber qi swept across the sky!
"Ah!!"
A bloody, thousand-zhang-long yellow serpent thrashed within the yellow sand mushroom cloud. Huge gaps were blasted open along its body, spraying streams of blood!
"Boom!!"
The saber light struck, and the massive yellow sand mushroom cloud was torn in two. The thousand-zhang-long serpent in the center of the mushroom cloud completely shattered, turning into a mist of blood.
"Bang!!"
A yellow snake head, tens of zhang in size, crashed into a patch of yellow sand, its pupils filled with terror.
...
Dozens of miles away, a sand serpent army looked up at the colossal yellow sand mushroom cloud. A burly man shoved the soldiers aside and stared at the massive blood mist. A burly man in crimson armor, wielding a three-pointed saber, dominated the sky.
"Damn it!"
The burly man roared, staring at the shattered image of the great serpent. He recognized it as Sha Zi at a glance. "Quick, charge over there!"
