My Wife is A Sword God

Chapter 675: The Garuda King Appears

The aftermath of the high-powered battle sent ripples through the sky of Zhenling Pass, making it seem out of place in the entire southern region.

Old Man Baili tried his best, but still couldn’t do anything to the other party. 

A blurry shadow floated by and coldly said, “Even if the old man from the Heavenly Tower in the Imperial City came, he still wouldn’t be able to handle me.” 

“What can you even do?”

“The Garuda King is strengthening himself by absorbing the last power of the Gods and Demons’ backbone, and as the Candle Dragon’s divinity is merging, it has become inevitable that he will descend once again.”

“You are powerless to change the outcome, just like those ignorant soldiers below, death has long been your inevitable fate.”

“Your struggles are meaningless.”

“When the Garuda King appears and uses his bloodline’s innate divine ability, it will be a one-sided slaughter.”

When Baili heard this, he looked down at the battlefield, and the word “gruesome” was not enough to describe the scene he saw.

The Garuda Clan’s claws pierced the soldiers’ chests, the undying, cursed flames burning their flesh to charred blackness, and dark blood ran down their armor.

“Weak humans, worthy only as food for us.” The Garuda’s eyes were fierce with bloodlust.

It wanted to rip its claws from the soldiers’ chests to harvest more lives, but the dying soldiers used their last ounce of strength to cling to its arm.

“Useless struggle!” With a flap of his wings, he stirred up a frenzy of wind, the blades of which left bloodstains on the soldiers’ bodies.

But the soldiers didn’t seem to notice. Blood dripped from their mouths, accompanied by an insane smile.

Powered by an unknown source of strength, one soldier suddenly leapt up, knocking down a Garuda Clan member and shouting, “The human race will prevail!”

Boom!

The moment the flames erupted, everything fell silent.

Except for the lingering sound drowned in the battlefield, nothing was left. 

And scenes like this were everywhere.

Even in the last moments of life, even when death had become inevitable.

As long as the soldiers had a breath left, even if it meant using their teeth, they would tear off a piece of flesh from their opponents.

The cry of “Humanity will prevail” was like a call to battle, making each soldier fearless in the face of death, but it was also like the haunting sound of death, sending shivers down the spines of countless Garuda Clan members!

The Garuda Clan couldn’t understand why these lowly ants, even with their weak strength, could cause them such heavy losses.

They couldn’t understand why these ants had the strength to fight in their dying moments, even though they were seemingly fatally injured.

They couldn’t understand why these ants were as troublesome as they were twenty years ago!

Fear flickered in their crimson eyes, but the bloodshed and sacrifices of their comrades only fueled the human race’s determination!

The cry of “The human race will prevail” even drowned out the chaos of the battlefield.

As he watched these scenes unfold, the Old Man Baili, remembered the Battle of Zhenling Pass twenty years ago, and tears welled up in his eyes.

“In this world, every cause has its effect, and nothing is meaningless.”

“It is because of their relentless perseverance that the human race’s Bloodline and Will will continue to be passed down.”

“And one day, that Will will become so powerful that no one can defeat it!”

The blurry figure looked at the battlefield and was astonished to see the number of Garuda Clan members dwindling under the relentless onslaught of the soldiers.

This situation was completely beyond his expectations.

Old man Baili spoke again, “You always thought that the situation where the Hundred Ghosts of Literature and Martial Arts rule the world couldn’t happen, so you wanted to use the Incarnation of Gods and Demons to face this unknown terror.”

“But the resilience of the human race is far beyond your imagination.”

“And it is because of this resilience that this side of the world is the only one left among the Three Realms.”

As soon as the words were out, an angry voice erupted: “Sword Ghost, what are you doing?!”

The blurry figure looked at the source of the sound, only to see a sword stab at the back of the man with the ghost face marked with the number two on his chest, and the one who struck was none other than the Sword Ghost!

Even Zhen Tianyi and Father Qin were unable to react for a moment after seeing this scene.

“What are you staring at? Why don’t you all attack together? Do you want to wait for the Garuda King to appear?” Sword Ghost’s voice was heavy.

At the right moment, the Old Man Baili spoke: “We can trust him.”

At this point, how could anyone not understand? Sword Ghost and the Heavenly Burial Organization group were not of the same mind at all. He was the Hidden Hand arranged by the Heavenly Tower National Teacher!

“Sword Ghost!” The Ghost Faced man with number two on his chest gritted his teeth. In a one-on-one battle, he was not afraid of anyone.

However, at this moment, he was severely injured. Besides, since he had to face Northern Ghost Head, Sword Ghost, and Nan Tianlong at the same time, how could he be an opponent?

After one blow, he retreated violently. 

Sword Ghost’s treachery caught everyone from the Heavenly Burial Organization completely off guard. On the other side, Sun Qi narrowed his eyes and smiled: “Senior Brother, the formation we set up is almost ready. Shouldn’t we make our move now?”

Shen Li sighed, “For today’s plan, the teacher hid it from everyone in the world and imprisoned me in Ninefold Prison for more than ten years.”

“If it were just that, it would be bearable, but he also wants me to do what I’m least good at, which is acting. I was trembling under the enemy’s eyes every day.”

“Senior Brother, please don’t say any more. How can you compare with how long I’ve been undercover? The most urgent task now is to reduce the number of enemies before the Garuda King appears.”

“You have a good point.”

Shen Li and Sun Qi faced the giant Garuda Clan and clasped their hands together. The area where they had clashed before suddenly lit up with a white light array, dazzling and brilliant.

“Four Gods Heavenly Formation, rise!”

As the words fell, the virtual images of the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise materialized around the white array. Intense white light surged toward the Garuda Clan, and deafening screams echoed!

The once fiercely contested battle became clear due to the treachery of Sword Ghost and Shen Li.

The human race had gained a significant advantage!

Seeing this scene, the soldiers’ morale soared, and they pushed the Garuda Clan back step by step.

“Flatten Tianling Mountain!”

“Flatten Tianling Mountain!”

The shouts were filled with hot blood, demonstrating their determination to win.

But at that moment, the heavens and the earth shook violently, and a blaze of fire erupted at the top of Tianling Mountain.

A ten-winged garuda appeared before the world, its pressure like an invisible hand squeezing the hearts of everyone.

The Garuda King had descended.

And on his body was the circulation of black and white qi, the divine power of the Candle Dragon!

The Garuda King glanced over the battlefield, then turned to the Heavenly Formation of the Four Gods. With a flick of his claws into the void, the immensely powerful formation crumbled into dust in an instant!

Shen Li and Sun Qi’s faces both showed astonishment. What kind of terrifying power was this?

To the world, the Transcendence Realm was like the existence of gods!

The blurry shadow glanced at the black and white aura and said in a deep voice, “Why is the divinity of the Candle Dragon appearing on you?!”

Garuda King glanced over and coldly sneered, “The taste of the remains of gods and demons and the divinity of this Candle Dragon is truly exquisite. Now, I feel a power that I have never experienced before.” 

“I will rule this land and spread the wings of the Garuda Clan all over the world, and you are the lucky witnesses of this beginning.”

“You dare to ruin the Master’s great plan!” Ghost Buddha shouted angrily.

The Garuda King snorted coldly, and his aura soared. The space around him shattered as it couldn’t withstand his terrifying power.

At the same time, all the surviving members of the Garuda Clan’s eyes turned deep red, and their strength skyrocketed at a visible speed.

That’s Blood Succession’s Innate Divine Ability! 

Boom!

The Garuda King’s wings fluttered, and the eternal cursed flames blazed fiercely.

His cursed flames were completely different from ordinary flames, now they were black and white, rushing towards heaven and earth like a tsunami.

The space, like red-hot iron being heated, twisted and turned red. All the ghostly figures that were touched by the black and white cursed flames vanished instantly, their bodies and souls completely disintegrated!

The Garuda Clan, tainted by the curse of the Black and White Flames, had their bodies transformed into a black and white hue, and their strength became even more formidable!

How could you not tell from the blurry black shadow that Garuda King wanted to kill them all together? 

“Let’s retreat!”

The ghost-faced men immediately retreated. 

However, with the speed at which the cursed fire spread, the human soldiers had no time to escape. 

Old Man Baili’s expression darkened as he shouted, “I will stop the curse and the Garuda King. The rest of you take care of the other Garuda!”

With his words, he forcefully clapped his hands together. A white barrier emanated from him, not only enveloping Garuda King, but also blocking the black and white flames!

Father Qin and the others exchanged glances. They knew that Old Man Baili was only a clone of the National Teacher of the Heavenly Tower. Even if he could reach the transcendence realm, he wouldn’t be able to compete with the current Garuda King.

They had to deal with the remaining Garuda as soon as possible!

But how could they do that?

Ordinary soldiers were already struggling to resist the Garuda, and in the sky, there were thousands of Garuda Clan warriors full of killing intent!

With the improvement of the bloodline and the black and white flames, even those who originally had only six wings were now rivaling those with eight wings. How terrifying was this concept?

Roar!

As a sharp roar echoed, the Garuda Clan’s onslaught descended upon them in an instant!

…… 

The eerie sight of Zhenling Pass was clearly visible even within Jinyang City.

The sky resembled a burning cloud and the cracked, distorted space truly seemed like a glimpse of hell!

Many of the city’s citizens had already packed their belongings and fled the city to the north.

Inside the inn where Qin Feng was, Si Zheng’s brows were furrowed as he gazed in the direction of Zhenling Pass.

“Lord Si Zheng, what should we do?” Yang He asked in a deep voice.

When Si Zheng heard this, his mind was in a state of confusion. 

At that moment, Qin Feng, who had been lying on the bed the whole time, opened his eyes. A strange red lightning flashed across the sky above Jinyang City, causing Si Zheng and the others to bend over as if they were carrying a mountain on their shoulders!

“Lord Si Zheng, what’s going on? Could it be that the Garuda Clan is attacking?” Yang He asked with difficulty.

“I don’t know,” As Si Zheng spoke, a right hand, which was glowing with a soft white light, was placed on his shoulder, and he was immediately startled. 

When he turned his head, he saw that the owner of the hand was none other than Qin Feng!

At this moment, Qin Feng’s eyes were amber, his hair was silver, and a radiant glow enveloped him like moonlight, truly resembling an immortal being!

“Qin Feng, you…”

“There is no time to explain. I have to get through this hardship first, and then hurry to Zhenling Pass,” Qin Feng said as he looked at the roaring red lightning in the sky, his tone was calm and steady without a hint of fluctuation.
