Chapter 2861 - 577: Fiery and Frosty Assault

Every tentacle that lashed out was like a colossal pillar crushing Heaven and Earth, swinging viciously toward the two of them. Each sweep of a tentacle carried a terrifying gale, sweeping up sand and shattered stones around it, as though it would obliterate everything.

Those tentacles twisted like venomous serpents, emitting a piercing roar each time they swung. Every motion brought a dreadful impact; the ground trembled without end, and the entire Void seemed on the verge of collapse.

Yet the two of them stood firmly where they were. Behind them, within one Immortal Palace after another, vast immortal qi surged, the powers of Flame and Frost gathering at their sides.

Immortal Lord Fire Shock raised his Longsword and swept it fiercely across the front.

In an instant, Flame surged forth, like a raging tide in the heart of the sea, seemingly endless and unbroken.

The Flame blazed with a dazzling crimson, spreading outward to form a Flame Barrier, like a wall of fire, wrapping itself around tentacle after tentacle.

The Flame danced like a raging inferno, radiating searing heat, burning the air around it, as though determined to reduce all things to ash.

Each time a tentacle touched it, deafening explosions rippled across the Flame Barrier, sending sparks flying everywhere.

The Flame’s horrifying power of destruction, and its terrifying high temperature, seemed capable of melting all things.

Within this stretch of space, flames soared into the sky, firelight roared, brilliance flared—this entire wasteland seemed to have sunk into an ocean of fire.

The stench of charred flesh spread out in waves.

On the other side, the Sharp Sword in Immortal Lord Wu Shuang’s hand was spilling over with Cold Breath, forming a freezing vortex.

The vortex lunged toward the other tentacle monster; wherever it passed, whether Void or earth, it was instantly coated in a thick layer of Frost.

As the Cold Breath flew, it condensed into an Ice Dragon, which in a flash wrapped itself around the other monster.

The two struck at the same time. In that instant, Heaven seemed shrouded by blazing Flame; fierce fire devoured the land, magma flowed, and the earth shook and mountains quaked.

And when Frost congealed, Cold Breath permeated everything, Frosty Wind howled sharp and bitter; the world itself appeared to have fallen into an age of icebound stillness.

The icy chill flooded this portion of the world, and faintly, there was a sense as if some apocalyptic catastrophe were descending.

One of the tentacle monsters, once encircled by that freezing power, had its tentacles solidify, quickly turning to blocks of ice that shattered with a thunderous crash.

The body of the other tentacle monster had been scorched to the point it resembled a lump of pitch-black charcoal.

In just an instant, these two tentacle monsters were completely slain.

But the next moment, beneath the remnants of those two tentacle monsters, the ground split open abruptly.

Then a figure whose body looked like that of a Human but bore a pair of wings, with eyes gleaming with ferocity, suddenly burst up from the earth, appearing within their line of sight.

With his emergence, wave after wave of an unimaginably terrifying aura surged forth. He did not strike; simply letting his aura spread was enough to make this portion of the world tremble.

"Alien Race!"

Immortal Lord Fire Shock and Immortal Lord Wu Shuang’s expressions tightened at once. There really were members of the Alien Race here—and one at the Golden Immortal Realm!

Almost the very instant this Alien Race cultivator appeared, in the Void above, two auras no weaker than his erupted forth.

Two Golden Immortal Realm cultivators of the Human Clan appeared.

During this period, the Human Clan had dispatched quite a few cultivators to eradicate those tentacle monsters that had suddenly manifested near mortal dwelling places.

At first, they had not paid overly much attention to it. After all, the cultivators they sent were not weak; they were more than enough to slay those tentacle monsters.

Yet the cultivators they dispatched kept dying one after another—among them were True Immortal Realm, even Peak True Immortal Realm existences.

To be able to kill a Peak True Immortal Realm, to the point that such cultivators had no time to flee, no chance even to send a plea for aid—

The other side was very likely a Golden Immortal Realm existence.

And at this point, the ones who had been slaughtering their Human Clan cultivators were very likely those from the Alien Race.

Many of the Alien Race of the Primeval Realm had also entered the world where the Human Clan resided. Some of them had been captured, but others had not.

Thus they conceived this stratagem: use True Immortal Realm cultivators as bait to draw out the enemy’s Golden Immortal Realm, and then annihilate them.

As the auras of these two Golden Immortal Realm cultivators erupted, in the distance several more Golden Immortal Realm auras flared to life, rushing swiftly toward this place.

The winged Golden Immortal of the Kong Clan, sensing the Golden Immortal Realm cultivators charging over from afar, let a cruel look surface on his face.

"You think the likes of you can capture me?"

With a cold laugh, he turned and flew toward the distance. Behind him, the Human Clan’s Golden Immortal Realm cultivators pursued closely, vanishing from the sight of Immortal Lord Fire Shock and Immortal Lord Wu Shuang in the blink of an eye.

Immortal Lord Wu Shuang watched the receding figure and murmured, "Senior Brother, do you think we can..."

Before he could finish, his expression changed drastically.

From beneath him, a terrifying power suddenly surged up—its strength in no way inferior to that Alien Race who had just flown off.

A Golden Immortal Realm existence—there was another Golden Immortal here!

Just as he sensed this aura, a searing pain suddenly struck, followed by two booming detonations.

Immortal Lord Fire Shock and Immortal Lord Wu Shuang’s bodies exploded with a thunderous roar.

At the same time, a cultivator clad in Golden Scales Armor, bearing a pair of huge fangs, drilled up from underground, snatched up their Heaven and Earth Rings in one grasp, and sneered, "Since you came as bait, you should have been prepared to be exterminated.
