Chapter 1217: The Fall
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In the Luo God City, as the scarlet skin Kasaya hung like a cloth bag in the sky, countless Sovereigns looked at this enigma that had just enveloped Mu Chen. Their expressions were solemn.
It was said that even Earthly Sovereigns of the same rank would have great difficulty getting out of such a conundrum. Even though Mu Chen was extraordinary, it was going to take him a long time to get out.
They then looked in the direction of Xue Tong and Xue Shou, only to see the constant outbreak of horrifying spiritual power that surrounded the pair. In the face of the two’s all-out attacks, the spiritual array and the army also seemed to have been worn down.
In such a situation, it was very likely that when Mu Chen broke through, he would once again face the entrapment of the Blood God Clan’s three Earthly Sovereigns. After suffering their previous losses, the three would no longer give Mu Chen the opportunity to break through and attack them, so it would be difficult for Mu Chen to counteract their aggressions.
Some Sovereigns sighed secretly as they thought of this. It looked like the Blood God Clan had turned the tides again. This situation, of course, was also discovered by many powerful Sovereigns of the Luo God Clan, and their eyes were full of worry.
In the distant sky, Xue Lingzi also heaved a sigh of relief. He then gnashed his teeth, as he shuddered to think that a mere Lower Earthly Sovereign had unexpectedly embarrassed the Blood God Clan! Even if they won later, they would still be ridiculed in the future.
Fortunately, that abominable boy will certainly die this time!
Standing on the Blood Kasaya Celestial Appearance, Xue Yi also heaved a sigh of relief, while he glared at the Blood Kasaya. For the first time in many years, he had been utterly humiliated when clashing with a Sovereign of the same rank.
“Well, you just wait. Once you fall into my Blood Demon Kasaya, you won’t even be able to think about escaping!” Xue Yi snorted and muttered to himself.
He was feeling confident, but he also knew that it would be very difficult for him to kill Mu Chen, even if he was playing his trump cards like this.When he thought of Mu Chen’s bitter end, he felt pleasure. But, as he thought of something else, his expression suddenly changed.
Xue Yi frowned at the Blood Demon Kasaya, as he seemed to notice some strange spiritual fluctuations coming from it. However, before he could react, in the next moment, a sharp spot suddenly emerged upon it.
A purple gold light burst out, while an indescribable sharp aura swept through. Even the nearby space was pierced through with numerous holes. That sharp aura seemed to be able to penetrate everything!
“Ahh!” The Blood Demon Kasaya let out a shrill cry.
Rip!
Xue Yi’s expression changed suddenly, and his eyes filled with horror. At that moment, he heard a sharp sound.
Amid countless astonished glances, the purple gold light suddenly pierced out from the Blood Demon Kasaya. It then shattered apart, transforming into numerous pieces of bloody skin.
“How could this be?” Xue Yi’s eyes were horrified as he murmured in disbelief.
Numerous Sovereigns gasped in shock. No one expected that the Blood Demon Kasaya that had caused such a huge headache even to the Earthly Sovereigns would disintegrate in less than a minute!
“What exactly is that?” an onlooker wondered aloud.
They all looked at the surging purple gold light and were dumbfounded. This was because they now clearly saw that it was actually a massive needle!
Moreover, there was a palpable sharpness to the needle, which made even some Lower Earthly Sovereigns feel fear deep in their hearts. They felt that if the purple-gold needle were to charge towards them, their physical bodies would not be able to resist it.
Whoosh!
The purple-gold needle tore through the Blood Demon Kasaya, and with a flash, it suddenly accelerated, then burst forward at a terrible speed. With an ear-piercing sonic boom, it charged towards Xue Yi.
At this time, Xue Yi could only see a purplish gold light skimming across the sky. So, with a roar, the Blood Kasaya Celestial Appearance that was under his feet erupted in a magnificent blood-red light.
It then formed countless layers of sticky blood webs, obviously raising its maximum defense. After all, his physical defense had suffered drastically after the activation of the Blood Demon Kasaya.
Whoosh!
As the purple-gold divine needle shot through, the layers of blood net shattered unceasingly. However, this blood net was also strange, as whenever it broke, viscous blood would fly out of it, strengthening the subsequent layers’ defenses.
As such, in a few moments, while the purple-gold divine needle penetrated through the last layer of the blood web, it caused the blood web to form into something akin to a viscous blood barrier. However, the needle’s penetration speed had slowed down.
Xue Yi glared at the purple-gold divine needle, which was continuing to pierce through everything despite his best efforts to restrain it. He glared forward with crimson eyes and gnashed his teeth. He then opened his mouth, shooting forth a beam of blood-red light.
“Blood Demon Flag!” he yelled.
The blood light rose in the wind and quickly turned into a blood flag. The blood flag fused together with the blood barrier, as the deepening purple-gold divine needle was finally blocked and could no longer penetrate anything.
Apparently, this Blood Demon Flag was a Lesser Sacred Object! With the help of this Blood Demon Flag, Xue Yi could finally resist the purple-gold divine needle. He finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Whoosh!
However, the moment he relaxed, a light flashed in the space in front of him. Suddenly, Mu Chen appeared! He smiled at the relieved Xue Yi, and with a grasp of his palm, a green palm-leaf fan emerged.
Buzz!
The palm-leaf fan fanned out suddenly, while a strong wind raged between heaven and earth. A green dragon roared out, only to see the blood barrier and the blood flag in front of Xue Yi.
Without hesitating, the green dragon entangled and swept them both away. Xue Yi’s pupils shrank, then his scalp grew numb. He immediately panicked, then retreated madly.
As the fan swept the heavy defences away, Mu Chen clenched his fist. The purple-gold divine needle flashed with light, as if it was purple gold liquid, then wound up Mu Chen’s fingertips. His figure then disappeared into thin air.
Whoosh!
Mu Chen’s silhouette suddenly re-appeared before Xue Yi. His specter-like speed caused the latter’s face to be utterly horrified. In that moment, he seemed to smell the aura of death.
“It’s been a long time. Let’s end this now, shall we?” Mu Chen stared at Xue Yi, his expression cold. He had an extremely strong murderous intent towards this fellow who had almost killed Luo Li.
However, as it was not easy to kill an Earthly Sovereign, he had needed to wait for an opportunity to do so, which was now. Mu Chen’s glance was cold as he pointed his finger at Xue Yi’s chest. Then, on precisely the spot where he was pointing, a bloody gash appeared on Xue Yi’s chest!
Boom!
Just as his finger pierced Xue Yi’s chest, Mu Chen gnashed his teeth. At that moment, Xue Yi’s arms exploded and a blood-red light flashed. His figure then disappeared in a strange way.
Xue Yi had apparently inflicted harm upon himself in order to conduct a brief Spatial Teleportation as a means of escape from Mu Chen. Xue Yi reappeared tens of thousands of feet away, his face deathly pale, while he glared at Mu Chen venomously.
He grit his teeth as he spat out the words, “Brat, you are too naïve if you think you can kill me!” After all, an Earthly Sovereign was incredibly tenacious, so unless an attack was truly crushing, it was quite difficult to wipe one out completely.
Mu Chen glanced at Xue Yi, who had seemingly escaped, and a mocking smile surfaced on his expressionless face. Seeing Mu Chen’s mocking smile, Xue Yi’s heart turned cold. He then looked down and saw the mad penetration of the purple-gold liquid, which had seeped into his flesh and blood through the bloody gash.
The purple-gold liquid was like mercury, as it permeated every part of his body in just a few moments. Xue Yi looked at the scene in horror, for he found that the purple-gold liquid seemed to block the spiritual power. As such, everywhere it went, the spiritual energy within him began to be suppressed.
“No!” As the aura of death enshrouded Xue Yi, he screamed in horror.
“Immortal God Runes, Myriad of Change.” Mu Chen’s face was cold as he flicked his finger and yelled.
Whish! Whish!
As he finished giving his command, purple-gold thorns pierced through Xue Yi’s body, turning him into a porcupine. His pained screams rang out through the sky.
“Brat, how dare you?” While he was watching from a distance, Xue Lingzi was also shocked by this sudden change. When he recovered his senses, he saw Xue Yi’s tragic state and roared furiously.
Mu Chen glanced at him coldly, then snapped his fingers gently.
Boom!
Xue Yi’s body exploded, while purple-gold light erupted in a rampage. Every exploding piece of flesh and blood that could be seen was a clear testament to how he had been wiped out completely. It was utter annihilation, from the inside out!
As the blood mist fluttered in the sky, the whole Luo God City became deadly silent. Everyone was appalled as they looked at the blood fog in the sky, as they could clearly feel that Xue Yi’s life had just been completely wiped out. The Lower Earthly Sovereign from Blood God Clan had truly fallen!
All of the Sovereigns of the other forces, the entire Luo God Clan, and even Liu Tiandao, the Netherworld Palace Master, who was standing in a tower in the distance, were all stunned as they stared at this scene.
They then looked at Mu Chen, who was standing in the air. A chill gradually enveloped their bodies. By this time, it had dawned on them how terrifying this young man was!
