Chapter 2916

As soon as these words fell, the Blood Fiend Hand’s right arm heaved, manifesting a massive, blood-colored hand that blotted out half the sky and descended toward the two Heavenly Guards. Watching this scene, every cultivator present felt a mixture of tension and anticipation. Although the deterrent power of the Penglai Heavenly Palace had plummeted over the last twenty years, not a single person had dared to openly challenge its majesty—until now. The notorious evil cultivator known as Blood Fiend Hand was the first. The cultivators were desperate to know if the Penglai Heavenly Palace had become a hollow shell, and whether the dispatch of these two Heavenly Guards was merely a bluff. Now, they would see if this strike from the Blood Fiend Hand could confirm their suspicions. The giant blood hand slammed down toward the heads of the two guards, trailing a thick, nauseating stench of blood. Yet, the guards did not dodge. One of them raised a long spear, and a bolt of white lightning erupted from its tip, striking the giant hand and shattering it in an instant. The blood-red aura that had stained half the sky evaporated into nothingness in the blink of an eye.
