170: Chapter 170 Within the Great Xia Territory, Divine Restrictions apply

Archimonde slowly opened his eyes in the chariot.

Those pitch-black double pupils coldly stared at the ancient-style shop in front of him, which hung a sign with black characters on a white background.

"The taste of Easterners is truly ridiculously vulgar."

Archimonde's voice was not loud, but under the blessing of some magic array, it echoed across the entire old street like a thunderclap.

He raised his right hand wearing white silk gloves and waved it gently.

"Smash this door to pieces for me! Then drag that heretic named Lin Ye, along with Helena who betrayed the Lord, out like dragging a dead dog, and sentence them to death!"

"As you command, Lord Blood High Priest!"

Two heavily armored holy knights, nearly two meters tall, acknowledged the order.

They raised the hundred-jin heavy cross greatswords in their hands.

Dazzling holy flames instantly erupted from the sword bodies, and they fiercely hacked down at the seemingly fragile glass door of the Funeral Shop!

This power was enough to split a main battle tank in half.

Those local tyrants of Jiangzhou hiding in the dark closed their eyes one after another.

In their view, Lins Funeral Shop had truly kicked an iron plate this time, unable to even withstand the first wave of attacks.

However...

"Clang!"

A crisp sound of metal clashing rang out.

Those two cross greatswords carrying terrifying holy flames, half a chi away from the glass door, seemed to have hacked into an invisible vibranium wall.

The huge rebound force directly split the tiger's mouths of the two heavily armored holy knights.

The cross greatswords slipped out of their hands, spinning in mid-air, and heavily stabbed into the stone-paved road in the distance.

The two holy knights groaned softly, uncontrollably retreating five or six steps before barely steadying their figures.

The entire scene was dead silent.

Archimonde's double pupils on the chariot shrank slightly.

"What kind of barrier is this? It can actually rebound the power of holy flames?"

"Screech!"

Just at this moment.

The glass door of the Funeral Shop was slowly pushed open from the inside by someone.

A young man wearing a gray hoodie and stepping on a pair of flip-flops, with a toothpick hanging from his mouth and hands in his pockets, slowly walked out.

Behind him followed Leng Yue in a moon-white qipao, cold and immortal; Frost Star in an ice-crystal blue dress, bewitching and enchanting; and... Helena, wearing a black high-slit qipao with a submissive look.

Lin Ye stood on the steps.

He condescendingly looked at this group of Western knights outside who were facing a formidable enemy, his gaze finally falling on Archimonde on the chariot.

"In the middle of the night, you run to someone else's doorstep to smash the door. Is this how your Western God usually teaches you to be civilized and establish new trends?"

Lin Ye spat out the toothpick in his mouth, his eyes revealing a lazy, ruffian aura.

"Or are you here to attend the auction? Did you bring enough money?"

Archimonde's gaze directly skipped over Lin Ye.

He stared fixedly at Helena behind Lin Ye.

Looking at the high-slit qipao on her body that was full of Eastern charm, outlining her figure to be extremely seductive, as well as the posture of complete surrender on her face.

Archimonde's expression instantly turned extremely ferocious.

"Helena! You shameless whore! You actually betrayed the truth and submitted yourself to a dirty Eastern monkey?!"

Hearing Archimonde's angry curse, Helena's body trembled instinctively.

But before she could speak, a slender figure had already blocked in front of her.

The laziness on Lin Ye's face instantly vanished.

His eyes were as cold as knives, piercing straight at Archimonde.

In this man's view, since Helena had now signed an indenture contract, she was his person.

It was one thing for him to bully and tease her a couple of times normally.

Outsiders? What kind of thing were they, daring to point fingers in front of him?

"Keep your mouth clean."

Lin Ye held the soul-suppressing copper coin sword in one hand, the tip of the sword pointing diagonally at the ground.

"She is now an employee of Lins Funeral Shop, eating my food and living in my place. Who the hell do you think you are, daring to shout and scream here?"

Helena dazedly looked at the back that was not very broad, blocking in front of her.

In this Inquisition of the West where the will of superiors was absolute truth, no one had ever treated her as a human being.

She was merely a killing tool crowned with the name of sacred.

But in the East.

In the eyes of this man who forced her to sign the indenture contract, she received unprecedented protection?

That warmth spreading from the bottom of her heart was even more intoxicating than Pure Yang True Qi.

"Arrogant!"

Archimonde laughed out of extreme anger.

He stood up, and the Holy Blood Thorn Ring on his wrist erupted with a blinding blood-red cross light.

"Since you are in a rush to seek death, I will grant your wish! All members of the Law Enforcement Team, listen up! Activate the Holy Judgment Formation, and raze this damned Eastern dilapidated temple, along with all the heretics inside, to the ground!"

The twelve heavily armored knights roared in unison.

The holy light on their bodies connected with each other, forming a huge phantom of the Judgment Cross in mid-air. The terrifying coercion fiercely pressed toward the Funeral Shop.

The local tyrants of Jiangzhou hiding in the dark were so frightened that they covered their ears one after another, lying on the ground trembling.

With this level of combination magic, let alone a Funeral Shop, even a skyscraper would be reduced to ashes.

Yet in the face of this heaven-destroying and earth-shattering strike.

Lin Ye stood on the steps without even making a dodging movement.

"Razed to the ground? Have you asked this piece of land if it agrees?"

The corners of Lin Ye's mouth hooked into a mocking arc.

He gently stamped his right foot on the steps.

"Nine Nether Purgatory, open."

The four fluttering words fell.

The next second.

A sudden change occurred!

Centered around Lins Funeral Shop, circles of intricate dark-black Dao patterns suddenly lit up on the ground within a radius of five hundred meters.

A huge, incomparable nine-story black pagoda phantom roared up from the underground, completely enveloping the entire Taiping Old Street within it.

[nine nether purgatory tower · First-Layer Absolute Domain] triggered!

This sudden turn of events caught Archimonde and the twelve holy knights off guard.

Before they could react.

An irresistible power of ultimate Dao laws instantly descended upon them.

"Pfft!"

The huge judgment cross condensed by the twelve holy knights in mid-air was like a punctured balloon, leaking and collapsing in an instant.

The dazzling holy light, the moment it contacted the black pagoda shadow, was like lingering snow meeting the scorching sun, being forcibly suppressed and devoured clean.

"This... what kind of evil art is this?!"

Archimonde's face was filled with shock.

He discovered in horror that the vast, sea-like holy magic power within his body was suppressed by a full eighty percent in an instant!

The forbidden spell that was originally enough to destroy cities and annihilate worlds could now at most cast a fireball spell.

Those twelve heavily armored knights were even more miserable to behold.

Losing the blessing of holy light, the hundred-odd-jin heavy armor on their bodies instantly became a burden, suppressing them so much that even raising their swords was difficult, and their legs trembled one by one.

"Evil art?"

Lin Ye flicked his wrist.

The soul-suppressing copper coin sword slashed out a golden-red dual-colored gang qi in the night.

He slowly walked down the steps, the coercion of the Pure Yang Dao Body released without reservation.

Under the blessing of the Nine Nether domain, his aura at this moment was like a truly Asura demon god.

"I will teach you what the traditional virtues of Great Xia are."

Lin Ye stepped on the Nine Purple Gang Steps, his figure turning into an afterimage, and instantly appeared in front of that group of holy knights who had been suppressed into stray dogs.

"Bang!"

A simple and brutal body slam.

The two-meter-tall heavily armored knight at the very front, along with his armor, was directly sent flying more than ten meters away, smashing a large pit into the bluestone slab of the old street, vomiting blood frantically, and passing out.

"Frost Star, Leng Yue. Stretch your muscles."

Lin Ye shouted without even turning his head.

"Alrighty! Time to play dodgeball!"

Frost Star cheered and turned into a deep blue afterimage rushing into the crowd.

With a slap of her palm, she directly slapped a holy knight along with his helmet to spin three times in mid-air.

Leng Yue walked forward unhurriedly, flicking her fingertips, and a few clusters of Red Lotus Karmic Fire fell onto the knights' armor.

The high temperature instantly burned the armor red hot, scalding the people inside to emit screams like butchered pigs.

It was completely a one-sided massacre and noob-bashing.

Archimonde watched the elites he brought being beaten like sandbags within a few minutes, his eyes splitting with rage.

"Eastern heretic! How dare you desecrate the gods!"

He bit the tip of his tongue, spraying a mouthful of vital essence blood onto the Holy Blood Thorn Ring on his wrist.

The thorn ring erupted with its final afterglow, turning into a blood-red long whip that carried a soul-tearing whistling sound, fiercely lashing toward Lin Ye's back.

"Careful!" Helena couldn't help but speak out to remind him.

Lin Ye didn't even turn his head, striking back with a sword.

The copper coin sword accurately blocked that blood-red long whip.

Afterwards, Lin Ye slowly turned around.

On that handsome face, there was a trace of sarcasm and mockery.

"Desecrate the gods?"

Lin Ye pinched a Taiyi Heavenly Thunder Talisman with his left hand and patted it onto the sword blade.

The purple-golden heavenly thunder roared and exploded.

Staring into Archimonde's terrified double pupils, he spat out eight words one by one, his voice echoing across the entire old street:

"Within Great Xia, Gods Are Forbidden to Pass."

"Break for me!"

A sword slashed down.

The peerless sword Qi carrying the True Thunder of the Nine Heavens and the Pure Yang Fire directly severed that blood-red long whip.

The sword Qi did not decrease in momentum, piercing through Archimonde's chest like a bamboo split open.

"Pfft!"

Scarlet blood sprayed into mid-air.

That Blood High Priest who was once arrogant and irrepressible in the West, with eyes full of thick disbelief and fear, heavily fell off the chariot.

Everyone hiding in the dark, at this moment, felt their scalps go numb and sucked in a cold breath.

Lin Ye put his sword back into its sheath and gently patted the dust off his sleeves.

"Fatty."

"Here! What are your orders, Boss!"

Fatty Wang poked his head out from behind the door.

"Collect the corpses."

Lin Ye turned around and glanced at Helena, who was standing on the steps with star-filled eyes.

He walked forward and unceremoniously pinched the smooth cheeks of the foreign beauty.

"See that? The god you believed in before isn't very good. From now on, follow me."

Helena's heart beat violently.

She lowered her head, letting the man's hand flirt with her face, her voice so soft and sweet as if water could drip out of it.

"Yes... Master."
