"Aren't you all courting death?" Wang Tian said with a devilish grin.
The scorpions that were after him numbered at least 15. They were all peak stage Wild Beasts.
He stabbed the Soul Reaping Scythe deeply into the large scorpions head and left it there. The large scorpion screeched in pain as it desperately struggled to get rid of the scythe. Wang Tian flicked his hand and a dagger appeared in his hands as he appeared in front of a wild beast in the blink of an eye. That scorpion reacted rather quickly as it pinched him using its claws. Wang Tian dodged with a front flip to the sky. He landed on top of that scorpion skillfully. Wang Tian stabbed the scorpion and the scorpion died in an instant.
"See? That wasn't so bad was it?" He chuckled.
One by one he killed the scorpions that were after him. He absorbed all of the Dark Qi that emanated from their body.
...
Senior Golem was standing on top of everyone on the battlefield. He was looking at Wang Tian with a smile.
When he saw that his Young Master was not in danger, he finally decided to do as he was asked.
He started to sweep with his eyes at the battle below him.
In front of Senior Golem, these people aren't much stronger than ants. Even calling them as dust could be an overstatement. In actuality, he could make all of these beings die in a split second. But, he figured that it would be a great tempering experience to Wang Tian if he let the brat kill a few thousand on his own.
Senior Golem released a bit of his aura.
0. 00000000000000000000000000000001% of his aura. He released it.
He purposely suppressed it so that it could only affect an area near him.
But he underestimated his own power!
Anywhere within ten thousand kilometers felt a frightening aura. They all unconsciously stopped fighting with each other and looked at Senior Golem fearfully.
"Who is he?" A Heavenly King expert asked fearfully.
"How is he that powerful????"
"An expert! He'll be able to help us greatly!"
"We're in luck! An expert has come to save the day"
Senior Golem could hear them even when he was a thousand meters up in the air.
"Die" He said calmly.
He said it slowly but all of the people within ten thousand kilometers heard him.
"Huh?"
In an instant, hundreds of thousands of spikes appeared. Surrounding all of the entities present. Whether it be a human or a beast. They were all impaled by the spike! Leaving them no path for survival.
"Ahh!"
"He's gonna kill us all!"
Senior Golem killed indiscriminately as this was his Young Master's order. He controlled his attack skillfully so that the people and beasts that he had attacked would remain with an intact corpse. Of course, the only difference was that they all had large holes on their chests.
He waved his hand and all of the corpses flew to his storage ring. One fifth of the population in this war was wiped out by Senior Golem. After the spikes impaled those cultivators, they returned to the ground. This wasn't a spell but only his innate ability. Senior Golem is of the Golem race and they have an innate connection to the earth. It's not surprising for them to control it easily.
"Ah! I have grown rusty. If I didn't stop killing, I could have ended the lives of these people with just a thought. Now I even have to use my mouth. Ugh" He said to himself with a laugh. If anyone were to hear what he said, they would definitely cough up blood and run for their lives.

A monster like this appearing in such a weak planet? How was this possible?
Senior Golem has single handedly annihilated one fifth of the population in this war with only one move. As the saying goes, if you can kill with just one move then don't waste a second move. It only gives the others a chance to take a breather, perhaps even the chance to overturn the situation.
Wang Tian looked at the scene. Marvelling at Senior Golem's astonishingly powerful abilities.
Senior Golem looked at him and they both nodded towards each other.
Wang Tian's eyes shined and then he suddenly thought of an idea.
'Senior Golem could kill a fifth of the population of the beings battling now... If I use my Death Decay? Can I reach the same effect?' He thought to himself.
Right about now, he has finally absorbed all of the Dark Qi from the wild beast scorpions earlier. Even the big one was now dead.
He jumped down from the corpse.
He looked at the beings surrounding him. There were a mixture of humans and beasts.
He raised his hand and then started to condense 90% of the Dark Qi from his body into his palm. Not even sparing the Dark Qi that he had just collected.
After a few moments, a grey and deathly pale qi visible to everyone's eyes appeared. It grew till it was 10 meters tall and from there it finally stopped.
"Look! What's that kid doing?"
"Why do I feel immense pressure from that ball?"
The surrounding beings looked at Wang Tian oddly. They all felt that something was wrong but they couldn't put their finger on it.
Wang Tian looked at the crowd evilly.
"Why is he smiling like that?"
"Hey brat! You better not mess around! This is a battlefield! Someone wet behind the ears like you should go back to his mother!" A Heavenly King expert said.
Wang Tian smashed the ball into the ground.
In an instant, the Death Decay spell took effect. The ball was condensed with so much qi that the area of its effect grew ten times! It became an AoE spell!
Author's note: Area of effect (AoE)
"Huh? What is this?" One guy ten meters away from Wang Tian said as he noticed that there was a sharp pain on the side of his head.
"H-hey! What's happening to you?!" The cultivator next to that guy asked in surprise.
"Your ear is disintegrating!"
That guy looked at that cultivator in surprise and exclaimed, "Ahh!! What's happening to you?? Your arms are also disintegrating!"
Before that cultivator could cry out in pain, they were both killed by a rampaging and panic stricken magical beast. Those two cultivators were just Zifu realm experts and that scorpion was an early stage magical beast.
"KRAAAAAAAAA!!!!" that magical beast cried out loud as its pincers disintegrated into dust.
The exact same thing was happening to some of the entities present within a 50 meter radius. All of the experts ranging from Houtian Lifeform realm to Zifu realm were all affected by the Death Decay spell and they were slowly but surely falling into their demise. Whereas wild beasts to early stage magical beast realm were meeting the same fate. The only entities unaffected by the Death Decay spell were the ones that have higher cultivation bases than the former. Of course, it wasn't like the Desert City had countless experts. It had more or less the same level and number of experts as the Moon Summit Empire. Resulting in the numbers of Houtian Lifeform realm experts and Zifu realm experts being much more abundant.
Wang Tian coughed up a mouthful of blood but his eyes were shining. His face was pale and he had little to no juice left inside his body.
'So it has that effect? It will gain a much larger area if I condense my qi? With this, it will be much easier for me to kill in large numbers. But it's rather draining to the body. Fortunately, I only condensed 90% of my qi otherwise I could've fainted...' he thought to himself.
The Wanxiang Adepts and Heavenly King experts looked at Wang Tian hatefully.
They were there comrades in this battle! They were all from the same race! Why did he have to kill indiscriminately?
"Fuck! He's killed my son!"
"He's killed my daughter!"
"Ahhh!!! I will avenge you my love!"
The Wanxiang Adept experts and Heavenly King experts that brought their families with them all cried out loud as they had their family members killed by Wang Tian. They were really unlucky because their family members were in the 50 meter radius.
Over fifteen Wanxiang Adepts and six Heavenly King experts rushed towards Wang Tian. Ready to kill him at any moment.
Wang Tian looked at the scene and scoffed.
'Even someone as powerful as lady second wasn't able to kill me. With just all of you?' He thought to himself as he looked at the people charging towards him disdainfully.
He proceeded to take a nonchalant walk around the corpses and started to absorb the Dark Qi that was coming out of their corpses. Wang Tian paid the experts no heed.
This angered the experts even more.
"Fuck! Kill this cocky brat!" They all cried out loud as they charged towards Wang Tian.
When they were within a 100 meter radius, they all felt like they were being strangled. But there was no one present. How could anyone strangle them. They all couldn't breathe and their brains started to work much faster because of the adrenaline. This was like a last chance for them to see who their attacker was as the oxygen inside their brains were depleting.
By then, they all saw a bulk man wearing silver beside that youth. His face was unrecognizable but the aura he gave off was more than enough to instantly kill all of them.
They were all experts and their families had died. What have they got to lose? Pride and arrogance were etched into their bones as the feeling of being much more powerful amongst others were something that they had a daily dose of. They would never bend even when faced with such an enemy. Even more so now that the enemy was a cultivator that killed their families. However, this did not apply to all of the experts that were attacking Wang Tian as some of them cared much more about their lives than their families.
'Well, you can always find a woman and make a new child right? Was it really worth it?' these were the thoughts of those few who retreated when they were assaulted by Senior Golem's aura.
The ones that stubbornly proceeded to fly towards Wang Tian all felt the pressure increasing more as the feeling of being strangled became much more painful.
When they reached the fifty meter radius, Senior Golem chuckled and said,
"A bit interesting. But all of you still have to die for even daring to think of harming my Young Master" Senior Golem said with a light sneer.
Senior Golem flicked his thumb and index finger together.
"Teck"
In the blink of an eye, the heads of those experts exploded. It was like having multiple fireworks in the sky. If it were real fireworks, then it would be a dazzling scene. But it wasn't. Blood painted the ground as the scent of flesh filled the air.
Wang Tian gasped in shock and looked at Senior Golem admiringly.
'When will I reach such a stage? When will I attain such power?' He thought to himself as the desire to grow much mote powerful intensified.
The corpses of those experts as well as their bag of holdings floated and went inside Senior Golem's storage ring.
In just a few seconds, numerous experts died. How powerful was Senior Golem really?
