Chapter 598 517: Whoever Touches Brother Pei Dies

The Multi-armed Centipede laughed heartily. One of its arms—a limb from the Giant Race, renowned for its strength—clenched into a hammer-like fist. Muscles knotted and veins bulged as it brought the fist down with a ferocious, whistling wind!

BOOM—

The ground cracked open.

But amid the swirling dust, the Multi-armed Centipede couldn't see the slender, handsome figure in white.

"Over here."

An indifferent voice sounded from atop the Multi-armed Centipede's back.

It whipped its head around in horror, only to see that Pei Yuhang had somehow appeared on its spine. He thrust the branch in his hand downward like a sword—

PFFT!

The branch precisely struck the joint connecting the Giant Race arm to the torso.

It was a seemingly casual thrust, yet an invisible Sword Qi seeped in like a fine rain, traveling along the muscle and sinew before erupting!

It was as if the first domino had been tipped, causing the entire line to fall.

A faint cracking sound was heard, and then—

BOOM!

The entire base of the giant arm exploded, crashing heavily to the ground and kicking up a cloud of dust.

The Multi-armed Centipede's compound eyes widened in disbelief, its voice twisting in horror.

"How is this possible?! You don't have a sword, just a tree branch!"

It stared at the stump of its severed arm. The Sword Qi had utterly shredded it, leaving no possibility of reattachment.

"A sword? Is it really so necessary? Against you, at least, this branch is more than enough."

As Pei Yuhang spoke, he raised the branch, its tip a sword's edge, and thrust it toward the other arms.

The branch moved like a coiling dragon, the Sword Qi as swift as a fleeting specter!

Every light tap struck an arm joint with pinpoint accuracy; every wisp of Sword Qi ravaged the meridians within!

He was going to dismantle this monster—a creature covered in hands, possessing an absurd healing ability—

piece by piece!

Meanwhile, Qing Yueqiu was locked in a fierce battle with a monster covered in pale Bone Spikes.

The Bone Spikes on this Demon Fiend could either be shot out with the force of Crossbow Arrows or transformed into long spears for close-quarters defense, making it incredibly difficult to deal with.

As for Nangong Jin, she was single-handedly battling six Void Refining Demon Fiends!

VWOOM VWOOM VWOOM—!!

Golden Sword Qi crisscrossed the battlefield. The aftershocks from the clash between Nangong Jin and the six Void Refining Demon Fiends alone were enough to obliterate the surrounding Demon Race soldiers, reducing them to pulp.

'Dammit, this little bitch is too strong! If we'd known she'd be here for the Holy Grail theft, we would have borrowed more experts from other Demon Race tribes!'

'Damn it, hold on! Under our relentless assault, she must have used up half her Spiritual Qi!'

'The Spiritual Qi on Ghost-Back Mountain is polluted by Demonic Qi, so she can't replenish her reserves from nature—but we can! As she weakens, we grow stronger. The advantage is ours!'

"Kill!!"

The Demon Fiends took turns unleashing their most powerful Divine Abilities, employing hit-and-run tactics and refusing to face Nangong Jin head-on.

If Nangong Jin focused her attacks on a single one of them, the others would take turns blocking, distributing the damage among themselves.

As long as Nangong Jin couldn't reduce their numbers and find a breakthrough, they could wear her down until she was dead!

However, at that very moment, a handsome figure in white rushed over at high speed.

"How is that possible? That old Multi-armed fiend, the one with the most survival tricks, actually fell!"

The Crocodile Ghost glanced down and saw that the flesh-and-blood centipede—the one who loved tearing off people's arms—had been dismantled into a pile of parts by Pei Yuhang and his branch!

"This is bad! Don't let that handsome man get to Nangong Jin! The second he touches her and transfers Spiritual Qi, all our efforts to wear her down will be for nothing!"

The Banshee shrieked.

In an instant, all the Demon Fiends turned their attention and launched a group attack on Pei Yuhang.

However—

"Don't you dare touch Brother Pei! Anyone who moves, dies!"

A streak of golden Sword Qi descended, blocking the way in front of Pei Yuhang.
