Chapter 1272: Violent Crushing

The Fifth-Order's heart skipped a beat.

Facing the legendary World-Ending Calamity Chen Ling, it was impossible not to be nervous. Let alone him, even those Seventh-Orders from the Cao Gang were terrified. The moment that touch of red appeared in front of him, he instinctively wanted to retreat.

At the same time, under the clothing on his shoulders, two hand puppets of unknown material suddenly emerged, one pitch-black and one snow-white.

The black and white hand puppets raised their hands to hug themselves at the same time, and a storm instantly protected his figure inside!

Surrounded by the storm, the Fifth-Order finally relaxed a little, but the next second, a pair of large hands intertwined with red paper violently tore open the edge of the storm, and a pair of scarlet eyes as large as lanterns stared straight at him...

Red paper spat out, and Chen Ling's face emerged from the monster's body.

"Too weak."

This creepy scene and the faint three words directly collapsed the Fifth-Order's psychological defense line.

The Sixth-Order on the side saw this and wanted to make a move to relieve his colleague, but an invisible giant python had already coiled around his shoulder and bit his head hard.

For a time, the Sixth-Order's brain went blank.

It was in this brief gap that a massive amount of red paper had completely poured into the storm. The Fifth-Order figure let out a shrill and painful hiss, not knowing what kind of torture he was suffering inside... I saw scarlet blood mixed with red paper, gradually replacing the raging storm. A moment later, a figure in a play robe slowly walked out of the flying red paper.

He held two tattered hand puppets in one hand and threw them into the pool of blood like garbage. On the ground behind him, the Fifth-Order figure was already riddled with holes and had completely lost his breath.

With Chen Ling's current degree of calamity, killing a Fifth-Order was as simple as killing a chicken.

The Sixth-Order, who had come back to his senses, saw this tragic scene in front of him, and his face turned deathly pale...

In the blink of an eye, the entire gray prison was killed clean by Chen Ling. With the power cut off, there wasn't even anyone who could go out to ask for help immediately.

"Chen Ling, you can't leave today!"

The Sixth-Order's brain ran at high speed. The next second, a domain rapidly unfolded under his feet!

Yellow Divine Path, [Earth Husband] path——[Earth Xu Returns to Ancestor]!

The moment the domain unfolded, the entire chimney-shaped prison shook violently. The ground directly below was like a rolling earth dragon, actually dragging this building and pulling it up from the ground!!

Dust drifted from the ceiling, but perhaps because of the Sixth-Order's deliberate intention, the prison didn't collapse. Chen Ling looked at this scene coldly, his killing intent even stronger in his eyes.

The Sixth-Order Yellow Divine Path making such a big movement wasn't to deal with him, but to tell other Divine Path possessors in the police station that they had encountered an enemy attack in this way... It wouldn't be long before more Divine Path possessors would surround this place, and after discovering his identity, it would even attract the Pu family and even Ninth-Order Demigods.

Of course, since Chen Ling dared to come, he was prepared to be exposed. As long as he rescued Xiao Tao and the other one before the irresistible enemy arrived, with his ability, he could still escape alive!

At worst, he now has a 61% audience expectation rating. At the very least, he can perform another "Slaying of the Calamity" and use the Mocking Disaster to carve out a path to survival!

Chen Ling didn't tangle with him; instead, he flashed out of the window and rushed toward the location of Xiao Tao and Xiao Bai!

"Where do you think you're going?!"

Knowing that reinforcements would arrive soon, the Sixth-Stage's mindset had shifted. As long as he could stall Chen Ling here for even a moment, it would be a great achievement. Driven by a sudden surge of courage, he actually gave chase directly after Chen Ling!

But when he rushed out of the window, the space before him was empty... Xiao Bai and Xiao Tao were still tied up in their original spots, but there was no sign of Chen Ling.

Oh no!!

The Sixth-Stage seemed to realize something, but it was already too late.

On the wall directly above him, a massive monster resembling a red-paper spider sprang out instantly. Like a hunter poised to strike, it raised its hunting gun toward the prey that had let its guard down...

Bang—!

The roar of a gunshot echoed as a brass bullet carrying memories shot out from the revolver, instantly sinking into the Sixth-Stage's body.

"Ah!!" The Sixth-Stage let out a miserable scream, feeling the memories in his mind turn into mush. Various high-impact images tugged at his consciousness, leaving him unable to distinguish what was reality for a moment.

At the same time, a second gun was raised from Chen Ling's left hand.

[The Tribunal].

The ethereal bullet followed the memory revolver, giving the Sixth-Stage no time to catch his breath. Just as it was about to deconstruct his heart, the Sixth-Stage reacted instinctively; half of his body turned directly into black soil, twisting at an eerie angle in mid-air!

The Tribunal's bullet grazed his chest and finally sliced across one of his arms, instantly decomposing the entire limb into nothingness.

At this moment, an unprecedented fear surged into the Sixth-Stage's heart. He had thought he had turned from prey into a hunter, but he never expected that Chen Ling had never intended to let him live from the very beginning... Even if he was about to be surrounded by enemies, he was still determined to kill him!!

"Chen Ling!! I have no grudge against you!! How about you spare me?!" the Sixth-Stage said, enduring the excruciating pain of his severed arm.

"Spare you?"

Chen Ling, whose face was already half-covered in red paper, sneered, his smile twisted and eerie.

"I'd like to let you go, but you... might not let me go."

"No!! I promise I won't stop you!! The others will be here to surround you soon. You take them and leave; I'll just pretend I didn't see anything..." The Sixth-Stage said, his voice growing more desperate as he caught a glimmer of hope.

"Oh?" Chen Ling said indifferently.

"You dignified Nanhai police officers, the embodiment of justice—how could you possibly let a rat like me in the sewer go... wouldn't you agree?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the last shred of hope for survival in the Sixth-Stage's heart was extinguished...

Boom—!!

Rolling red clouds crashed down from mid-air, instantly engulfing the Sixth-Stage's figure and slamming onto the ground in front of Xiao Tao and Xiao Bai. Amidst the endless surge of red paper, a blood-soaked, one-armed figure struggled to break free.

Every step he took on the ground caused the earth to tremble. Giant stone shadows rose from the spots where he stepped, attempting to block the surging red tide for a moment, but they were like paper fences, shattering at the first touch of the rolling torrent!

"Chen Ling!! It's just for two Fusers, do you really have to fight to the death?!" the Sixth-Stage roared.

Within the vast sea of red paper, a figure slowly rose.

Chen Ling raised his hand and pressed it against the giant pillar where Xiao Tao and Xiao Bai were located. Dense electric currents flashed, and the conductive pillar was instantly reshaped, winding toward the Sixth-Stage like a giant snake...

At the same time, the cut-off power supply was restored. High-voltage electricity passed through the long snake, whose conductivity had been amplified several times by Chen Ling, and the terrifying lightning almost condensed into a slurry!

Two lightning snakes rose behind the red-paper monster. Chen Ling looked down from above and spoke calmly:

"You? You think you're worthy of making me 'fight to the death'?"
