Chapter 170.2 Kill Them All
"Booooom!"
Wang Ke's attack seemed to deliver some pain. The Snake King looked up at Wang Ke with a ferocious visage.
"Roar!"
The snake seemed to be losing his mind.
"What are you doing? How dare you bare your teeth at me?" Wang Ke raged.
He smacked his flying sword onto the serpent's head again.
"Clang!"
"Roar!"
"The Snake King was instantly infuriated. He slithered upward, along the tower's walls.
"Wang Ke, the Snake King is on the loose! He's coming!" Zhang Zhengdao warned in shock.
Indeed, the monster quickly got up to reach Wang Ke, jaws open to swallow him whole. Its eyes were crimson and blood-lusting.
Wang Ke's face turned serious; he quickly readied a ball of essence Qi and tossed it toward the Snake King's nostrils. The latter didn’t bother to dodge.
As usual, the turbid essence Qi's prowess was familiar to that of the Snake King. The giant reptile sniffed and then started convulsing. It was as if his soul would have received a deep baptism, just as he suddenly fell into hell.
"Blargh!" The Snake King started vomiting.
It was so uncontrollable that the monster vomited his gall juice.
"Wang Ke, is this how you keep a pet snake? If the snake doesn't listen to you, you will feed him… your essence QI? He becomes obedient after that?" Zhang Zhengdao was amazed by what he saw.
The latter had difficulty understanding why the Snake King would listen to Wang Ke's orders. He felt that it didn't make sense; and now, Zhang Zhengdao finally realized why.
After vomiting for some time, the Snake King finally recovered. He opened his eyes and looked at Wang Ke in shock. "Why am I here?"

"I'm supposed to be the one to ask you instead. What were you doing just now? Why did you show up and attack me at the first chance?" Wang Ke asked back with a stare.
"I... I don't know. I know nothing about what happened just now. I just wanted to consume more dragon Qi and eat humans, and then eat everything! Everything in my mind was set to kill, kill, and kill!" The Snake King gasped in shock.
"What? You lost your mind and only wanted to kill?" Wang Ke was shocked by the news.
"Roar~~~~~~~~~!"
The gold dragon soaring above roared again, then swooped down to the dragon Qi zone beneath the twenty-fifth floor.
Next, the demonic beasts from the Miasmic Sea rushed to the Dragon Gate Assembly.
An immortal sect disciple cried out, "Demonic beasts, how dare you intrude in the Dragon Gate Assembly. Die!"
"Booooom!"
At once, a group of immortal disciples entered the assembly venue and pursued the demonic beasts.
"Rumble! Booom!"
Skirmishes took place all across the assembly venue.
"Ahh!"
"Help! The demonic beasts are here!"
"Kill, kill, kill...!"
"Hahahah, die, you righteous disciples!"
"Hahaha, die, demonic disciples!"

In just moments, the entire assembly ground was filled with shrieks of pain and countless battle cries.
The dragon Qi was becoming denser, so much so that it blocked everything taking place below the twenty-fifth floor. As the killing and blood spilling continued, a tint of blood color was mixed in the golden fumes looming over the assembly grounds.
"Roar!
"Kill!"
"Roar!"
"Die!"
......................
....................

The horrifying battle continued. No immortal disciple who had entered the assembly ground was able to leave.
Even those who flew in using their flying swords were equally unable to make their getaway. The entire assembly venue became a hellish arena.
Wang Ke, Zhang Zhengdao, and the Snake King looked appalled.
"What... is happening?" Wang Ke asked in dismay.
"I can sense that the leyline gold dragon flushed the dragon Qi toward the Miasmic Sea. That's why so many demonic beasts were drawn to this place!" the Snake King said.
"The leyline dragon lured all those demonic beasts into coming here? Why?" Wang Ke could not wrap his mind around it.
The Snake King explained, "You don't understand. Dragon Qi isn’t that useful for humans, while on the other hand, it is vital for demonic beasts to evolve. Such an extremely dense dragon Qi would certainly draw demonic beasts to this place and go mad fighting for it!"
"You weren’t yourself just now; you only had a mind to kill! Now that we hear those battle cries down there, things look similar! Are they all crazy? Why are all of them shouting about killing each other?" Wang Ke wondered.
"It's a spell array!" Zhang Zhengdao answered with a grim look.
"An array?" Wang Ke looked at Zhang Zhengdao.
"That's right. There must be an array set in this venue. Those who step into the array will lose their minds and only think about killing! It's meant to draw everyone, the righteous, the demonic sects and beasts into the array to have them kill each other until none remains standing!" Zhang Zhengdao continued explaining, looking worried.
"How do you know that?" Wang Ke asked.
"A codex I read before mentioned this ruthless and forbidden spell! How... How can it be...?" Zhang Zhengdao looked down in horror.
Wang Ke turned toward the room behind him, appalled. "Parlor Lord Zi, are you the one who set up this array? Whether friend or foe, righteous, demonic, or those beasts... Are you going to kill them all? Why are you doing this, Parlor Lord Zi? You will only become everyone's enemy!"
"Brat, are you worried about me?" Zi Bufan chuckled derisively.
"Of course, I'm not worried about you. You were only rejected by Zhu Hongyi; do you have all those people bear the brunt of your revenge? What good would it do to you if all of them die? Most important of all, I'm innocent!" Wang Ke disputed.
You must be nuts! Do you really want to kill everyone? You can forget it if you want me to become the world's enemy. Why must you drag me into this and make me the scapegoat? I don't want the whole world coming after my life!
