Chapter 757: The Heavenly Tormentors Join The Battle, Billions Of Swords, Defending Against Twelve Blood Kings

“Hang in there!”

At that crucial moment, the Daoist Celestials heard a new voice echo from a distance.

Several bursts of energy exploded from the depth of the universe as a few rays of light arrived before the Blood Abyss.

The newly arrived cultivators each possessed a powerful aura. The person in charge of the group was a man in green clothes.

“It’s the Heavenly Tormentors!”

The Transcendental Daoist Celestial rejoiced.

Apart from the Seventh Tormentor, the rest of the eight Heavenly Tormentors had come.

The Heavenly Tormentors were of varied appearance and characteristics. Amongst them were an elder who carried a cane, a swordsman who wielded a longsword, and a heroic lady who was armed with a majestic glaive…

Each Heavenly Tormentor possessed their unique auras.

“Your injuries…”

Although the Daoist Celestials were pleased to see the Heavenly Tormentors, the Transcendental Daoist Celestial could not help but worry about their injuries.

Would they be able to put on a fight against the Blood Kings?

“Never mind the injury. Firmament Star is at the brink of collapse.”

A bulky brute said.

His terrifying muscles were built to be hard as steel. With his dark hair dancing in the wind, the Heavenly Tormentor was seething with a boundless amount of battle intent.

He was the Third Tormentor of the group!

Amongst the Heavenly Tormentors, the Third Tormentor had an explosive personality, which made him a formidable force on the battlefield. He stared passionately at the Blood Kings and said, “This is my first time fighting a Blood Tribe Daoist Celestial. You’d better not let me down!”

The Ardent King was surprised to see the Heavenly Tormentors. “I didn’t expect there to be more powerful entities hidden within Firmament Star. However, sensing from your auras, it seems like all of you are injured. Heh, what a bummer.”

“Why don’t you try me out?!”

The Third Tormentor made the first move.

He punched forward and unleashed a fury of powerful fist energy.

One of the Blood Kings lightly grunted and responded with a punch as well.

The fist energies clashed and resulted in an explosion.

The Third Tormentor was forced a hundred meters backward. “Heh, not bad at all. Again!”

With the Heavenly Tormentor’s reinforcement, the combat strength on Firmament Star’s side improved significantly. At least, they could defend themselves against the Blood Kings’ attacks.

However, the situation remained suboptimal.

The Transcendental Daoist Celestial quickly noticed that the Heavenly Tormentors’ momentums were beginning to dwindle. He knew that the Heavenly Tormentors had resorted to some temporary measures to suppress their wounds.

Alas, it would not be enough. With the Blood Abyss’s influence, the Heavenly Tormentors would not be able to hold themselves any longer. Meanwhile, the strongholds were under heavy attack by the Blood Tribe, and they would not last long either.

Boom!

A loud explosion erupted in the distance.

One of the stronghold’s mega formations had been destroyed by the Blood Tribe’s attack, exposing countless cultivators to the blood mist.

“Haha, kill!”

“This time, we will destroy all eighty-one strongholds!”

The Blood Tribe cultivators rushed into battle.

Soon, the sound of massacre echoed throughout the universe.

Many cultivators had either imploded as the blood mist infiltrated their bodies or ended up being killed by the Blood Tribe’s cultivators…

The Daoist Celestials of Firmament Star were heartbroken to witness that scene.

“You have no chance of winning now!”

The Ardent King mocked.

Then, he unleashed a wave of powerful absorption energy that sucked the surrounding blood mist into his body like a giant whale!

To everyone’s surprise, his aura strengthened dramatically!

It was one of the Blood Tribe’s powers in working — the use of Dark Blood Energy!

The rest of the Blood Kings had seen a significant increase in their combat strengths as well.

“These b*stards are using their Dark Blood Energies to absorb the blood mist for their combat strengths!” The Daoist Celestials’ expressions were glum.

Hum, hum, hum, hum, hum…

Just as the Daoist Celestials were about to resume their battles, a long series of hums echoed in the distance.

“What’s that sound?”

“It sounds like sword chants…”

The people stared into the distance.

The Daoist Celestials saw swarms of longswords coming from the strongholds and dashing through space. One billion of them, two billion of them…

There were so many swords that it was impossible to count them!

As their sword qi traversed billions of kilometers through the universe, their powers shook several clusters of stars!

At the forefront of the sword formation was a young man in white.

There was only cold indifference in his eyes, while behind him were the billions of swords following his lead, their sword qi clearing the blood mists before him!

“Hello, Blood Kings. Today, I’ve brought with me the swords of all eighty-one strongholds into battle!” Chu Kuangren’s voice echoed through the battlefield!

Many swordsmen within the stronghold saw a glimmer of hope.

Their swords were now a part of that enormous sword horde.

“Chu Kuangren! I knew you were the biggest menace to the Blood Tribe!” The Ardent King stared at Chu Kuangren with eyes full of murder intent.

The remaining Blood Kings were shocked as well.

Billions of swords from all eighty-one strongholds were for Chu Kuangren to use!

What terrifying power was that?!

Even if they combine their powers, the Blood Kings must now tread carefully.

However, they could not and would not ever retreat!

The Blood Abyss had consumed eras worth of Blood Tribe’s resources, so they could not resummon it again as they wished.

If they did not kill Chu Kuangren this time, there would be no more chance in the future.

“Attack!”

The Ardent King shrieked.

The Blood Kings attacked in unison!

“Dragon Slaying Slash!”

“Hand of Star Destruction!”

“Cirrus Palm!”

“Dark Wave Dragon Slash!”

Twelve Esoteric Techniques were unleashed at once along with the Daoist Celestials’ mighty cascade of energies, which formed a colorful torrential stream that swarmed majestically towards Chu Kuangren.

The display of energies immediately forced the Firmament Star Daoist Celestials into retreat.

“Bring it on!”

Chu Kuangren was fearless, his expression indifferent.

As of now, he was already in a Dao Convergence State!

His powers allowed him to draw the power of Firmament Star’s Heavenly Dao, while his Exquisite Nine Orifices Sword Heart was reinforced with the power of countless swords.

It was no longer Chu Kuangren’s battle alone.

He was representing countless years worth of Sword Dao power in Firmament Star!

The horde of swords swarmed into battle, crashing violently into the colorful energy stream of the twelve Blood Kings.

Boom, boom, boom!

An intense series of explosions ensued as the surrounding asteroids and comets exploded into fragments!

Many swords were flung away in the blast.

The colorful energy stream dissipated as well.

From afar, all of Firmament Star could feel the shockwave of that terrifying explosion as the planet shuddered lightly. If it were not for the Detaching Heaven Megaformation, the magnitude of the earthquake would have been higher.

The attack forced the Blood Kings back.

They stared at Chu Kuangren in utter disbelief.

The Blood Kings had not expected Chu Kuangren to be able to survive their combined attacks. It was an unprecedented event for all of them.

“The previous attack has destroyed one-third of his swords, so he can only pull this off two more times at most!” the Ardent King exclaimed.

It seemed like the Blood Tribe still had the upper hand!

Nevertheless, Chu Kuangren was still unfazed.

With a flicker of his mind, he mobilized the countless swords under his command and struck them towards the direction of the twelve Blood Kings.

“Block his attack!” the Ardent King said.

The Blood Kings unfolded their miniverse, forming together a large crimson barrier that shielded them from the swords. As Chu Kuangren’s sword struck onto the barrier, a series of deafening explosions ensued, as if two stars had collided into one another.

Even the Blood Kings were beginning to feel the pressure.

“Something’s off!”

The Ardent King noticed something strange.

That was when he realized that the swords attacking them represented only a small fraction of Chu Kuangren’s weapons. Most of the swords were going straight for the Blood Abyss behind them.

“He’s targeting the Blood Abyss!”

The Ardent King’s eyes widened.
