Chapter 127: The Terrifying Kou Nanlong
The Forbidden Laws Stone was one of the legacies of the Mo family.
Zhang Yang had annihilated the Mo family and seized all their resources—except for the Nightstone Mine—proving that he possessed hidden strength.
Long ago, at the Blackstone Arena, he had been prepared to kill Qiu Yinong and Kou Nanlong.
If not for Lu Changkong, the Sword Saint of the Eastern Domain, he truly wouldn’t have known what the outcome would have been.
Now was the time to act, to seize the opportunity to eliminate the Great Boundless and remove the threat immediately.
Upon hearing Kou Nanlong shout the name of the Forbidden Laws Stone, Zhang Yang realized he had lost the chance to kill him. Without hesitation, he redirected his attack toward the Liu family’s Great Boundless experts.
The Liu family members were within ten meters of him.
Liu Feikong stood six or seven meters away.
The other three Great Boundless figures were seven or eight meters away.
Liu Feijue had been knocked aside, and instinctively, another Great Boundless warrior rushed to save him, stepping out of the ten-meter range.
The remaining two Great Boundless figures, furious but cautious, stayed by Liu Feikong’s side.
Zhang Yang advanced.
He brushed past Liu Feikong, ignoring him—not because he didn’t want to kill him, but because the two other Great Boundless figures were a higher priority. He closed the distance rapidly.
When the two Great Boundless figures heard Kou Nanlong’s cry and recognized the Forbidden Laws Stone, they understood the danger and tried to retreat. However, within its range, their cultivation realms were instantly suppressed to the Returning to Origin realm—one level below Zhang Yang.
Their bodies couldn’t keep up with their thoughts.
In that instant, Zhang Yang surpassed them. His fists, imbued with thunderous force, unleashed the Slaughter Thunder Power at full strength.
Bang! Bang!
His fists struck their chests, crushing ribs and organs.
They died on the spot.
Zhang Yang turned to Liu Feikong.
The man had been fortunate—blasted by the killing thunder, he was thrown beyond the ten-meter range. The last remaining Great Boundless expert of the Liu family caught him and quickly fled.
Zhang Yang’s gaze snapped back to Kou Nanlong.
Kou Nanlong hadn’t run. Instead, he stood at a distance, holding a crystal-clear pearl in his hand. Within it, a dragon seemed to soar—it was a Dragon Pearl.
Forming hand seals with his left hand, he suddenly shouted, “Break the forbidden laws!”
Bang!
In the next moment, the Forbidden Laws Stone in Zhang Yang’s hand exploded.
The suppression and restrictions were lifted.
His hand, now bloodied, throbbed with pain, and rage surged through him.
He growled, “Kill him for me!”
The Great Boundless war statues charged.
Zhang Yang also drew the Thousand Wolves Pillar. He had to use this trump card—he had to kill Kou Nanlong.
Bloodshed had driven him into a frenzy, a deep humiliation seeping from the depths of his soul.
Then, a chilling sight unfolded.
The Great Boundless war statues, immensely powerful, turned from black to gold as their combat strength surged.
Kou Nanlong stashed the Dragon Pearl and charged. At the moment of impact, he vanished—only to reappear behind the war statues before rushing straight for Zhang Yang.
“Void Escape Supreme Art!”
A scream pierced the air.
It was Yi Ren Zui.
She had rushed over upon hearing that Zhang Yang was intercepted by the Liu family brothers.
Void Escape Supreme Art was a legendary technique, as renowned as the Silver Cauldron Secret Technique. It granted unparalleled spatial movement. Though it had become fragmented over time since the era of Eternal Night, it remained incredibly effective in battle.
Kou Nanlong was overwhelmingly powerful. In an instant, he closed the distance, descending like a deity from the clouds. His eyes held utter disdain for Zhang Yang as he reached out to seize his head, intending to crush him on the spot.
Even Yi Ren Zui watched in despair.
What could Zhang Yang possibly do?
The distance was too close. The gap in their realms was insurmountable.
Yet Zhang Yang coldly declared, “You are dead!”
As his words echoed, deafening wolf howls erupted.
Zhang Yang knew that Kou Nanlong could kill one Great Boundless assassin and severely wound another. The war statues alone wouldn’t be enough. He had to amplify his power.
That was why he activated the Thousand Wolves Pillar.
Despite Kou Nanlong’s astonishing abilities, which left Zhang Yang in shock, the killing intent within him only deepened his resolve.
The second marvelous effect of the Thousand Wolves Pillar was already unleashed.
The wolf howls surged—a sonic attack blasting toward Kou Nanlong.
Caught off guard, Kou Nanlong staggered!
He had been too arrogant. As he prepared to strike, he had already dismissed Zhang Yang as a dead man.
Though Zhang Yang’s combat strength had startled him, the vast gap in their realms had filled him with absolute confidence.
Thus, when the wolf howls erupted, the sound waves slashed through the air like blades. Kou Nanlong’s head spun as he staggered backward, groaning.
Blood streamed from his ears. A wound had opened on his head.
Simultaneously, from the Thousand Wolves Pillar, a massive divine wolf formed—a being composed of a thousand stone wolf patterns. It lunged forward, its claws poised to strike.
Great Boundless!
Its claws blotted out the sky, appearing as though forged from black gold, ready to tear down the very sun. The power was utterly terrifying.
Dazed, Kou Nanlong shook his head violently, trying to regain his senses.
Even so, he threw a punch.
It was like two mountains colliding.
The entire street shook violently.
Buildings on either side nearly collapsed.
The sheer destructive force was horrifying.
But what shocked everyone even more—
The divine wolf’s claws shattered.
Kou Nanlong had acted hastily. Injured by the sound waves earlier, he was momentarily stunned, blood spurting from his mouth as he staggered backward.
"Kill him!"
Zhang Yang roared.
The war statues lunged forward once more.
Without engaging in direct combat, Kou Nanlong retreated and retrieved the Dragon Pearl again. Spitting out another mouthful of blood, he channeled his energy into the pearl. It radiated with a dragon-like glow as it swiftly moved across the blood.
A complex pattern emerged.
He bellowed, "Life-Slashing Spell Technique, slash!"
The pattern shattered instantly.
Zhang Yang felt a violent disturbance surge through the Thousand Wolves Pillar, followed by piercing screams.
Then—silence.
Upon closer inspection, he was stunned.
The divine wolf, once composed of a thousand wolves, had turned lifeless, utterly still. Only the tiny wolves within it twitched weakly, as if severely injured and on the brink of collapse.
His glare locked onto Kou Nanlong, burning with fury.
The Life-Slashing Spell Technique had struck down the divine wolf, rendering the Thousand Wolves Pillar useless, stripping it of its second miraculous ability.
It was the first time he had used it—and now, it would be the last.
Rage exploded within Zhang Yang.
He felt no fear. No hesitation. Only an intolerable fury.
At that moment, a singular thought consumed him—
Kill Kou Nanlong!
As his rage peaked, his mind sharpened, suddenly entering a state of absolute clarity, akin to his first-ever battle.
He could predict every one of Kou Nanlong’s attacks.
With a subtle shift in his thoughts, the war statues instantly repositioned themselves, standing one meter in front of him.
Then, he reached into his storage bag and hurled something forward.
The war statue extended its massive hand and caught it.
It was a blade—broken and rusted, yet exuding an overwhelming, chilling aura.
Holy Blade!
Though damaged, it held a grandeur that far surpassed any Great Boundless artifact. Unlike the Wolf King Spear, which had suffered fundamental damage, it still retained the essence of a holy weapon, albeit in a rare form.
Arrogant as ever, Kou Nanlong ignored it and charged forward.
But this time, he had miscalculated.
Zhang Yang had thrown out not one, but two items.
The first was the Broken Holy Blade.
The second was the Golden Rope.
Both were treasures from the Mo family’s legacy.
However, Zhang Yang had intentionally thrown the blade first, followed by the rope—just a fraction of a second later. This timing was crucial.
As Kou Nanlong attacked, the war statue caught the Broken Holy Blade, its towering frame momentarily blocking the scene.
More importantly, Kou Nanlong’s deep-rooted arrogance had deceived him.
After slaying the divine wolf, he had assumed that no threat remained.
Determined to kill Zhang Yang, he was willing to exhaust himself to use the Void Escape Supreme Art once more. In doing so, he neglected the second object, giving the Golden Rope just enough time to slip beneath the war statue’s legs.
Whoosh!
The Golden Rope coiled tightly around Kou Nanlong’s left ankle.
In an instant, it shot upward like a bolt of golden lightning, binding him completely.
