Chapter 12 Ladies and gentlemen, please come to my Ten Thousand Soul Banner for a chat!
Sudden.
The air raid siren blared throughout the entire island, its sharp sound waves scraping against the depths of everyone's eardrums like invisible blades.
All anti-aircraft weapons opened fire simultaneously, their muzzles spewing flames, and countless shells trailing incandescent white contrails as they hurtled toward the high-energy target a hundred miles away.
The sound of bombing grew louder and louder, almost suffocatingly fast!
The shells that flew out couldn't stop the approaching thing at all, not even for a moment.
A hurried announcement pierced everyone's ears: "Everyone, take cover! It's not a missile coming, it's Lu Heng from the Dragon Kingdom! He's extremely hostile towards us, a fierce battle is inevitable. All ability users, attack immediately! Whoever kills him will be a hero of our Sakura Kingdom!"
Upon hearing the sound, Teng Miaozi panicked and unconsciously clenched the hem of her clothes.
But thinking of the divine protection she had received, she quickly calmed down, obediently stayed in the magical toilet, clasped her hands together, and waited for the divine to descend.
"You vile creatures of the Sakura Kingdom, I have come to collect you!"
A near-manic roar crashed down from the sky, carrying a terrifying pressure that made everyone on the island tremble with fear, a hundred or a thousand times more terrified than if they had heard of an incoming missile attack.
"He...he really came!"
"That demon is extremely cruel. I don't want to fall into his hands. Run!"
"Don't panic, everyone! We have powerful superhumans; if Lu Heng comes, he'll just be throwing his life away!"
"Look, the superhumans are past!"
Hundreds and thousands of superhumans rushed to greet Lu Heng.
They were all arrogant and domineering. It wasn't that they hadn't seen the battle videos that circulated, but they had been repeatedly brainwashed by the higher-ups, who said that the Dragon Kingdom had deliberately packaged Lu Heng in order to intimidate other countries, and that everything shown in the videos was an illusion created by editing and special effects, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
"Baka! Lu Heng is mine, nobody can interfere!" A red-haired man with dual superpowers, dressed in a Superman-style bodysuit, used his flight ability to leave everyone far behind, and charged straight up with his fists clenched.
Excitement filled his entire face, his features contorted with ecstasy: "Watch my ten-ton punch smash you to pieces!"
Lu Heng didn't even glance at him, his figure charging wildly like a meteorite.
The red-haired man couldn't even touch the hem of Lu Heng's clothes before his entire body couldn't withstand the extremely sharp impact, as if he had been crushed by a giant hammer, instantly turning into dust.
The flesh and blood were evaporated by the shockwave before they could even be scattered, and there wasn't even time to let out a scream.
Any superpowered individual who dares to block your way will meet the same fate!
The physical body disintegrated, leaving not even ashes.
Just as the last few superhumans were about to rejoice at falling behind, the gust of wind generated by Lu Heng's flight swept in like the scythe of death.
The destructive power contained in that gust of wind was enough to shred everything. The bodies of the superhumans were torn apart and shattered one after another, their flesh and bones separated, and their screams of collapse rose and fell, only to stop abruptly in an instant.
The onlookers below were terrified by the extremely shrill screams, their legs went weak and they collapsed to the ground. They finally realized that they had been completely deceived by the media!
This Lu Heng clearly possesses world-destroying power; it's not some kind of special effects editing!
Screams, cries for help, and shouts filled the air.
The entire island was plunged into despair and chaos.
Lu Heng was thrilled to hear this, and a cruel smile crept onto his lips.
Flying to the center of the island, with a thought, four pitch-black demonic figures flew out of the storage ring, each tens of feet tall, and crashed down in the four directions of the island.
The massive object crashed to the ground with a dull thud, causing the earth to tremble violently, houses to collapse, and countless deep cracks to appear in the ground.
The demonic figures' pupils burned with chilling purple demonic flames. They simultaneously raised their arms, and a pitch-black barrier rose from the ground, quickly enveloping the entire island and trapping everyone inside, leaving no one able to escape.
Lu Heng formed hand seals, and the Myriad Soul Banner soared into the sky, swelling against the wind, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a giant banner that blotted out the sky.
The air between heaven and earth trembled violently, emitting a wailing buzz, as if the entire sky was lamenting.
"They have committed countless evil deeds and harmed millions of lives, yet they show no remorse and instead take pride in their shame."
"Humanity has been lost, and this is intolerable to Heaven."
"Today, I will act on behalf of Heaven to uphold justice."
"Gentlemen, please come to my Ten Thousand Soul Banner for a discussion!"
A bottomless black hole unfolds within the banner, spinning wildly like a vortex.
A powerful suction force poured down like a celestial river flowing backward, tearing the souls of mortals below out of their bodies one by one, ruthlessly severing the connection between flesh and soul.
Those souls struggled, terrified, and let out silent screams, yet they could not stop their irreversible ascension. They could only futilely grasp at the void, uttering desperate howls.
"He's a devil! He's a devil!"
"Yes, that's right." Lu Heng responded loudly, his voice filled with undisguised madness and excitement. "I am a demon by nature. Welcome to my Ten Thousand Soul Banner, you beasts of the Cherry Blossom Kingdom!"
"Gods, please save us!" someone cried out in despair at the last moment before their soul left their body.
Inside the magical toilet, Fujimiya was panicked, cold sweat pouring down her forehead.
Desperately trying to establish contact with the being from another dimension, his voice trembled with fear: "My Lord, he's right here! If you don't intervene soon, the Cherry Blossom Kingdom will be utterly destroyed!"
However, there was no response.
A deathly silence.
She collapsed to the ground, her mind blank.
The defensive power of the sacred toilet was rapidly weakening, the holy light was dimming, the barrier was cracking, and it was on the verge of collapse.
Just then, Fujiko suddenly remembered something.
He suddenly ripped open his shirt and looked down at his own body!
His skin is tattooed with the Yamata no Orochi totem, passed down through generations, a forbidden power sealed within the family bloodline.
The gods have said that to activate this power, living sacrifices are required. The more sacrifices, the stronger the power.
A resolute ruthlessness flashed in Fujimiya's eyes.
She was already prepared.
He drew the special sword passed down through generations in the land of cherry blossoms, his hands trembling as he gripped the hilt tightly. With a fierce look in his eyes, he aimed the tip of the sword at his abdomen and thrust it in with all his might.
Blood splattered out, and the intense pain caused her body to spasm, but a strange smile bloomed on her lips.
A crimson array originating from the power of totems suddenly unfolded beneath her, spreading rapidly in all directions like a spider web, radiating an ominous dark red light.
Those clansmen whose souls had not yet been extracted by the Ten Thousand Soul Banner had no time to scream before the formation began to frantically drain their life force.
Their bodies aged rapidly in just a few seconds, their skin became dry and shriveled like dehydrated bones, their hair turned white and fell out instantly, and they collapsed silently to the ground, dying instantly.
Immediately afterwards, the remaining souls in the corpses were mercilessly sucked away by the bottomless black hole of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.
They died completely, without even the chance of reincarnation.
Meanwhile, Fujimayako's body began to undergo a terrifying mutation.
The life force she had drawn from her people transformed into a torrent of crimson energy, which poured wildly into her body.
My body began to swell violently, and it seemed as if countless living things were wriggling and churning beneath my skin, while my bones made cracking and reassembling sounds.
The hair danced and stretched wildly as if it were alive, each strand twisting and deforming, gradually transforming into eight ferocious snake heads.
Each snake's head opened its eerie green vertical pupils, its forked tongue flicking in and out of its mouth, emitting a hissing sound.
Its body began to grow uncontrollably, its clothes were torn to shreds by its expanding body, and layers of dark blue scales, gleaming with a cold luster, quickly grew on its exposed skin.
The limbs twisted and deformed, the nails fell off and regenerated, turning into sharp claws that were curved like sickles.
The spine tore through the flesh and extended out, transforming into a thick snake tail that slammed violently against the ground.
Pain, extreme pain.
As Fujiko mutated, she let out a scream that was not human, a sound that mixed the screams of a human woman with the hiss of a snake, enough to drive anyone who heard it insane.
Before long, the sacred toilet was completely burst apart by the wildly growing body.
The wooden and stone structure crumbled and scattered like pieces of paper, sending dust billowing into the sky.
And her body continued to grow—ten zhang, twenty zhang, thirty zhang!
A huge shadow loomed over half the island.
Eight snake heads danced in the air, their eerie green eyes all locked onto the man in the sky.
Lu Heng stopped what he was doing and looked down at the enormous creature with great interest.
"It's just a death throes."
