Chapter 1560: The Tenth Eye
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The flaming figure, the Starry Sky of the Universe, and the pearl, which was like a dragon’s eye, formed a triangular shape as they dashed toward the Heavenly Evil Deity. They were not traveling at a fast speed, but once they had been formed to target their enemy, their blow would definitely kill their enemy if he was struck by it.
There were no commotion and no earth-shattering aura as they traveled, but only peace. In fact, it was this sense of peace that had caused the Heavenly Evil Deity to turn deathly pale.
A deep and intense fear started to show in the Heavenly Evil Deity’s eyes. It was apparent that the Heavenly Evil Deity had not expected the power to be so forceful when Mu Chen, the Flame Emperor, and Martial Ancestor joined forces.
When Mu Chen had displayed his last deadly stroke, his face turned pale. However, he was luckily able to recover very quickly.
This was because he possessed the Great Spirit Sacred Body, so he could continue to replenish his spiritual energy, ensuring that it would never be completely depleted. Thus, after Mu Chen had displayed this powerful attack, he had no problem recovering the spiritual energy that he had used.
When Mu Chen looked at the Heavenly Evil Deity, who was being attacked by the three powerful blows, he pondered for a while. Suddenly, he stamped his foot, causing a huge spatial crack to appear in the sky.
There was a whole other world in the spatial crack, and it was apparent that it was a Lower Planes that was in ruins, as no living things could be seen within it. The spatial crack resembled a huge mouth as it covered the region where Mu Chen, the Flame Emperor, and Martial Ancestor were standing upon entirely.
Mu Chen knew that their attacks would be forceful and destructive, and once the spatial crack spread out, not only would the Spirit Demon Continent be affected, but the continents that were around the Spirit Demon Continent would also be affected, maybe even destroyed!
The Heavenly Evil Deity simply glanced at the Lower Planes that had engulfed them, clearly unbothered by the sight. As his big army was present as well, he felt that it would be better for them to fight in the Lower Planes in order to prevent his army from being hurt by the blows.
Mu Chen, the Flame Emperor, Martial Ancestor and the Heavenly Evil Deity landed on the Lower Planes, but all of the people could still see what was taking place through the spatial crack. All eyes were fixed on the Heavenly Evil Deity as the three forceful attacks from Mu Chen, the Flame Emperor, and Martial Ancestor moved closer and closer to the Heavenly Evil Deity.
The Heavenly Evil Deity’s face grew tense as he looked at the flaming figure, the Starry Sky of the Universe, and the ancient pearl. He then slowly clasped his hands together, causing a vast Demonic Stream to flow behind him and gather at his feet. The stream then turned into a Black Demonic Lotus.
While this was happening, there was no expression on the Heavenly Evil Deity’s face. As the Demonic Light flowed around him, he looked like a Demonic Buddha. Indistinctly, a strange chanting sound could be heard throughout the whole area.
The nine evil eyes on the Heavenly Evil Deity’s body slowly closed up at this time, while nine rays of black light moved on the surface of his body before gathering on the tip of his tongue.
Then, his tongue suddenly turned black as the black light flowed onto it! It looked quite strange and mysterious!
Soon, the three attacks had reached the Heavenly Evil Deity. The three-foot flaming figure slashed down with his palm, which was like the sharpest sword. That blow made it seem as though the world had been slashed by a wickedly sharp flame! At the same time, the temperature in the Lower Planes shot up, and even the ground started to melt.
As the Heavenly Evil Deity looked at the three-foot flaming figure, he yelled in a deep and devilish voice, “Nine eyes, exterminate the World’s Curse!”
The Heavenly Evil Deity then lifted up his head and added, “Go!”
The Heavenly Evil Deity looked like a chanting Demonic Buddha, and soon, his chanting turned into visible words, and when the words flowed out from the Heavenly Evil Deity’s mouth, they were intensely frightening. This Demon’s Chant was indeed vicious and destructive! It was like a ferocious devil, and once it had been released, it sought to devour the whole world!
Dong!
At that moment, the Demon’s Chant rose up and clashed with the three-foot flaming figure. In that instant, there was no loud explosion from the collision, as all the soundwaves had already disintegrated into nothingness.
While all of the people watched the Lower Planes starting to collapse at a very fast speed, the Starry Sky of the Universe came toward the Heavenly Evil Deity. It was very mysterious, and even with the Heavenly Evil Deity’s power, he knew that he would most likely to be seriously injured if he was hit by it.
Thus, the Heavenly Evil Deity opened his mouth once again, and repeated the Demon’s Chant, then shouted, “Go!”
Upon hearing his command, the second Demon’s Chant shot forward and slammed against the Starry Sky of the Universe. The two Demon’s Chants had stopped the flaming figure and the Starry Sky of the Universe from moving toward the Heavenly Evil Deity!
Following that, the Heavenly Evil Deity looked at the Primitive Pellet that was whizzing toward him and shouted, “Go!”
Upon hearing him, the Demon’s Chant shot out and immediately hit the Primitive Pellet…
Buzz!
As the Primitive Pellet was attacked by the Demon’s Chant, it vibrated to release a ray of light. As the light and the Demon’s Chant collided with each other, the light fended off the Demon’s Chant. At the same time, another ray of ancient light shot out from the Primitive Pellet and headed straight toward the Heavenly Evil Deity.
There were three sources of power coming from the Primitive Celestial Bodies in the Primitive Pellet. The power of the Endless Light Body was good at defense, so it could not be destroyed. The power of the Primordial Immortal Body took on the offensive role, as it had the Great Spirit Sacred Body to back it up, which ensured that it would be constantly filled with an endless supply of spiritual energy.
Thus, when the Heavenly Evil Deity saw the ancient light beam, he was shocked and opened his mouth to spurt out another Demon’s Chant to counter the ancient light beam.
Buzz! Buzz!
The two parties used their most deadly blows to attack each other at the Lower Planes. Although there were no loud explosions, everyone could feel the destructive fluctuations coming from the Lower Planes as they battled. They could see that the destructive power from the blows was wreaking havoc and smashing up the Lower Planes.
Go! Go! the onlookers thought as they watched Nine Demon’s Chants twirl out and continue to blast against the three-foot flaming figure, the Starry Sky of the Universe, and the Primitive Pellet.
There was a huge rippling effect, and as it spread out, it ultimately smashed up the entire space. There was also a Spatial Windstorm that engulfed the entire Lower Planes within it.
Everyone on the Spirit Demon Continent, as well as those people in the Great Thousand World, all fixed their gazes on the Lower Planes. Although their visions had been blocked by the Spatial Windstorm and they could not see the situation in the Lower Planes, they dared not look away. After all, they knew that their destinies would be determined by the outcome of this fight that was now taking place at the Lower Planes.
The Spatial Windstorm persisted in the Lower Planes for some time before it finally started to dissipate. After the Spatial Windstorm had cleared away entirely, the people looked at the scene, intensity in their eyes.
The people gasped when they saw the situation at the Lower Planes. Several continents at the Lower Planes had been utterly destroyed, leaving the entire Lower Planes completely empty.
Now, only six figures were seen in the sky, all of them confronting each other. It was apparent that the Lower Planes had been destroyed by the blows that the two parties had thrown out during their fight.
All of the people were shocked by the destructive power that the two parties had displayed. They then turned their gazes to the Heavenly Evil Deity, who was standing in the sky, the Demonic Lotus under his feet and the nine Demon’s Chants slowly circling around him.
Then, the three-foot flaming figure started to dim before it ultimately stopped burning and the Starry Sky of the Universe burst. The Primitive Pellet broke at this time as well.
When the people of the Great Thousand World saw the scene before them, they felt a cold chill run up their spines. They couldn’t help but wonder… Has the Heavenly Evil Deity managed to fend off the deadly attacks of Mu Chen, the Flame Emperor, and Martial Ancestor, and if that is the case, what other means do they have to contend with the Heavenly Evil Deity?
On the other hand, the top powers from the Extraterritorial Race looked elated.
Crack!
However, just as the people on one side of the Spirit Demon Continent were feeling depressed and the people on the other side were feeling joyful, a loud sound was heard from the Lower Planes. The people looked on in amazement as the nine Demon’s Chants that were circling around the Heavenly Evil Deity started to crack. Then, they suddenly exploded!
In that instant, the Heavenly Evil Deity’s body shook and the Demonic Lotus under his feet started to become engulfed in flames. A stain of blood that was black in color appeared at the corner of the Heavenly Evil Deity’s mouth.
In that moment, the entire world was filled with a dead silence. The earlier joyful expressions that had been on the faces of the top powers from the Extraterritorial Race suddenly froze before they were replaced with looks of utter shock. They had never expected that the Heavenly Evil Deity, who was like a Demonic God to them, would be injured!
There was complete silence on the side of the Great Thousand World as well. The people of the Great Thousand World looked at one another in amazement, as they could not believe that the Heavenly Evil Deity was injured.
At the Lower Planes, the Heavenly Evil Deity’s face turned gloomy. As he stretched out his hand and slowly wiped away the bloodstain that was at the corner of his mouth, he said emotionlessly, “I never expected that I would be injured by you.”
The Heavenly Evil Deity had already activated his most powerful attack, but he had clearly underestimated the power of Mu Chen, the Flame Emperor, and Martial Ancestor. Although he had managed to fend off their attacks, he had still been injured.
Although the injury was nothing too serious, it still meant that Mu Chen, the Flame Emperor, and Martial Ancestor had the ability to hurt him. At that point, he could no longer consider himself as invincible.
Mu Chen, the Flame Emperor, and Martial Ancestor looked at one another, but did not show any signs of joy. After all, the three of them were prideful people, so they would not allow themselves to become overjoyed over such a small injury.
“Although the three of us joined forces to take you on, we still only managed to inflict a small injury on you…” the Flame Emperor smiled and said. “You are indeed powerful.”
Martial Ancestor looked at the Heavenly Evil Deity as well. Although they were on opposing sides, he respected the Heavenly Evil Deity for his great might.
Martial Ancestor then said calmly, “However, from the looks of it, the Heavenly Evil Deity will have a hard time if he wants to destroy our Great Thousand World.”
From their earlier exchange of blows, it was obvious that they possessed the power to contend with the Heavenly Evil Deity. Although they were unable to defeat him completely, they had at least shown that the Heavenly Evil Deity was unable to have an advantage over them either.
The Extraterritorial Race wanted to take over the Great Thousand World since they now had the Heavenly Evil Deity to back them up. However, since the trio had successfully pinned down the Heavenly Evil Deity, the other top powers from the Extraterritorial Race did not have the power to destroy the Great Thousand World. Thus, both parties could only continue to fight and drain each other’s energy, just as they had been doing in the past.
Spiritual light flowed in Mu Chen’s eyes as he said in a calm voice, “If this continues, you will be on the losing end.”
Indeed, if they continued with this fight, the Great Thousand World would have to pay a high price. However, at least they would be given more time to prepare themselves.
Then, after a few more decades had passed, the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor might be able to leave their full names on the Heaven’s Declaration. When that time came, even if the three of them did not join forces, one person alone might be able to deal with the Heavenly Evil Deity.
This current situation placed the Heavenly Evil Deity in an awkward situation. If he continued to fight, he would be hindered by Mu Chen, the Flame Emperor, and Martial Ancestor. Moreover, if he was unable to get out of the knotty situation, he would be giving the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor a chance to turn the situation against him.
The Heavenly Evil Deity did not show any emotion, so one could not tell what was going through his mind at the moment. However, from observing his gaze, it appeared that he was in deep thought.
“Heavenly Evil Deity, you must leave the Great Thousand World. Go back to where you came from! This Great Thousand World is not yours to trifle with!” Mu Chen said in a deep voice.
Dark light glittered in the Heavenly Evil Deity’s eyes as he laughed in a weird manner. He then lifted up his head and looked at Mu Chen, the Flame Emperor, and Martial Ancestor and said, “It never crossed my mind that I would be rendered to such a sorry state by this Great Thousand World that I have looked down upon for so long…”
He then shook his head and added softly, “However, do you really think that I am unable to turn the tables?”
When Mu Chen, the Flame Emperor, and Martial Ancestor heard what the Heavenly Evil Deity had said, they were shocked and squinted their eyes.
The Heavenly Evil Deity then stared at the three of them and said, “The offer that I have extended to the three of you still stands. If you submit to me, I will ensure the safety of your friends and loved ones. This is the last time that I am offering this deal to you.”
The Flame Emperor’s face turned grave. His eyes were sharp as he said, “Stop your nonsense. Worst case scenario… We die. Just show us whatever means that you have.”
Mu Chen and Martial Ancestor immediately started to tense up, while the spiritual energy around their bodies surged and they looked warily at the Heavenly Evil Deity. Judging from what the Heavenly Evil Deity had just said, he must possess some secret means that he had yet to use. However, they couldn’t fathom what other means the Heavenly Evil Deity possessed since he was already at his most powerful state, which was the state of the nine eyes.
The Heavenly Evil Deity rubbed his eyes, then looked down and said, “I have to pay a high price if I use these means. I did not intend to use them, but looking at the situation, I have no choice.”
He then laughed and added, “Might as well… As long as I can take over the Great Thousand World, whatever price I have to pay will be worth it.”
He then lifted up his finger, put it into his mouth, and bit down on it. Black-colored blood flowed out from his fingertip. He then wiped the blood on his eyes, the three eyes on his glabella, and traced a trail all the way down to form a blood thread.
He then wiped the blood across the two eyes on his palms, his chest, and finally, onto the evil eye that was at his belly button. After the nine evil eyes had been connected by the blood thread, the blood trail formed a strange picture.
After completing these actions, the Heavenly Evil Deity put his hands together and formed a strange seal. He then curled up his lips into a devilish smile.
“I hope that all of you will not be frightened by me,” he said before he shouted, “The Demon’s Sacrifice, nine eyes!”
Crackle! Crackle!
In that instant, a Demonic Flame started to burn on the nine eyes that were on the Heavenly Evil Deity’s body. The evil eyes let out sharp cries as they were being burned. The Heavenly Evil Deity then screamed as though he was in great pain.
“Hahaha! Sacrifice them!” he yelled.
Then, the nine evil eyes burned into nothingness. At that moment, the Heavenly Evil Deity lost all of his eyes. The spots where his two eyes were located previously on his face were empty, which made him look quite strange and frightening.
When the nine evil eyes disappeared, nine black threads shot through the surface of the Heavenly Evil Deity’s body and gathered at his glabella. Thereafter, the flesh on his glabella tore apart.
Mu Chen, the Flame Emperor, and Martial Ancestor were shocked when they saw an evil eye slowly appearing on the Heavenly Evil Deity’s glabella. It looked purely evil, as though anyone who saw that sinister eye would be turned into a demon on the spot!
At that moment, the cold voice of the Heavenly Evil Deity, which caused the whole world to tremble with fear, resounded throughout the area, “This is my last trump card… Sacrifice the nine eyes! Turn them into the 10th eye!”
