As the Universe Turns - Chapter 257
Chapter 257 Awakening
“Brat! Are you still able to hold on? Hahaha …”
Ghost Lord Yinshan’s terrifying voice rang out from the black mist. Layers of devil origin energy covered the sky and swallowed up Xiao Chen. All the Heavenly Spirit Sect disciples were shocked and retreated.
“Liao Wuchen …”
Ling Luan’s face had already turned pale from fear. The devil origin energy that filled the sky suddenly split into three waves and attacked Xiao Chen from three directions. Its momentum was already terrifying to the extreme.
“Liao Wuchen! Be careful!”
Ling Luan cried out in shock. Xiao Chen saw that the three demonic Yuan Qi were coming ferociously. He hung the sword in front of his chest and quickly formed a seal with both of his hands. In an instant, he circulated the Ice Heart Jade Art within the Jade Light Heart Technique.
A layer of green light quickly covered his body. The Jade Light Heart Technique was Ling Yin’s supreme mental technique. It was divided into seven levels. The first level was called the Jade Heart Technique, the second level was called the Ice Heart Technique, the third level was called the Heaven in the pot, and the fourth level was the Ice Heart Jade Technique.
The layer of green light that enveloped Xiao Chen instantly blocked the three strands of demonic origin energy. Xuan Ming You Ji’s eyes narrowed as she said, “What a formidable Xuan Gate Heart Technique …”
Below, Murong Xi and the four Elders of Immovable Mountain finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw him resist the three Devil Cult leaders’ lifeblood devil essence.
However, the Jade Light Heart Technique was extremely profound. Back then, Xiao Chen had only comprehended the third level of the Heavenly Pot, but he had been stagnant. Now, even though he had comprehended the Heavenly Pot, the Ice Heart Jade Technique was only a preliminary comprehension. It was difficult for him to resist such a powerful devil origin energy.
Sure enough, not long after, the layer of dark green light that enveloped his body gradually dimmed. Even under the influence of the three strands of devil origin energy outside, a strange devil mark had faintly appeared.
“Shit, Liao Wuchen is almost unable to resist again …”
Ling Luan was so scared that her entire body trembled. However, at this moment, she was unable to help the other party. She could only watch helplessly from below as the devil origin energy corroded more and more heavily.
“Brat, you haven’t even practiced this Profound Sect technique yet, yet you want to resist the devil origin energy of the three of us? Naive!”
Ghost Lord Yinshan shouted. The monstrous devil origin energy immediately whistled towards Xiao Chen. With a “bang”, the layer of green light that enveloped his body finally shattered. Almost at this moment, the three devil origin energies engulfed him.
“Ah!”
Seeing this scene, many people below cried out in shock. Ling Luan’s face was as pale as paper, and her heart almost jumped out of her chest.
“This brat, he shouldn’t be able to hold on this time …”
A sinister smile appeared on Ghost Lord Yinshan’s face. However, Xuan Ming You Ji was not as relaxed as he was. Although the three strands of devil origin energy had already enveloped Xiao Chen, she faintly felt that something was wrong. Could the devil origin energy really muddy up this kid and make him enter the devil realm?
“Something’s wrong …”
At this moment, Xuanming Youji finally sensed something. He didn’t have time to think about it, so he instantly withdrew his life devil essence and flew backwards.
“What are you doing!”
The Ghost Master of Mount Yin was puzzled when he saw her suddenly withdraw her magic yuan. It was as if Patriarch Guituo had sensed something at this moment. He instantly withdrew his magic yuan and flew backwards.
“Shit …”
Ghost Lord Yinshan finally sensed that something was wrong. He was about to recover his magic power, but it was too late. With a “boom”, the black mist was blasted away by Xiao Chen. Ghost Lord Yinshan also seemed to have suffered a heavy injury in this instant, and he was so shaken that he spat out blood that he flew backwards.
“The devil origin energy actually can’t contaminate this brat …”
Xuanming Youji looked at the person in the distance with disbelief. No matter how high the cultivation of the profound sect was, it was impossible for them to resist the devil essence of the three of them. Even if they did not fall into the devil realm, their cultivation would definitely be greatly damaged. But why was this kid not afraid of their devil essence energy at all?
This was truly too strange. Unless there was a devil essence in his body that wasn’t beneath them, how could this be possible? This brat’s body was clearly filled with rich true essence, devil essence and true essence coexisting … This was impossible!
When the three of them were shocked, the black mist had completely dispersed. Even the people from the Heavenly Spirit Sect couldn’t help but suffocate.
A purple-black mark appeared between Xiao Chen’s eyebrows as he floated in mid-air. Black Qi circled around his body, but there was also an extremely rich immortal essence!
“The world is so big, why not?”
At this moment, his eyes were cold, and his body was filled with an icy cold aura. It was as if he no longer had any emotions. Even Ling Luan couldn’t help but shiver. This was even colder and more heartless than the “Lie Wu Chen” she had first known.
“You …”
How could the three of them believe that this person actually had such a powerful devil essence hidden within his body? No wonder he was not afraid of the devil essence energy of the three of them at all.
Thinking of this, the three of them did not hesitate and immediately attacked again. Xiao Chen’s eyes were cold as his palms trembled. The Nine Yin Nine Yang Profound Technique within his body instantly began to circulate.
At this moment, the sky was filled with dark clouds. Everything in the world paled. Under the stimulation of the Nine Yin and Nine Yang Profound Techniques, the power of the two ordinary palm forces instantly increased by countless times, stirring up dust all over the ground. It was like an unstoppable tide that surged out!
“Boom!”
With a loud explosion, countless cracks were instantly shattered on the ground several kilometers in radius. The three people in midair were also shaken to the point that they flew backwards. The three Void Refining and Dao Combining experts were actually unable to resist the two powerful palms that had increased their strength by countless times.
“This …”
Shock flashed across the faces of the three of them. Patriarch Guituo was the first to react. He thought that this person had just obtained the skills of Murong Xi and the others, and now he had awakened a devil origin energy in his body for no reason. He could no longer be his opponent today. He said coldly, “Kid, we will meet again.” As soon as he finished speaking, he instantly turned into a black mist and fled into the distant horizon.
Seeing Patriarch Ghost Tuo leave, Xuanming Youji also instantly reacted. She was not a person who didn’t know whether to advance or retreat. Knowing that it was impossible for her to take down Heavenly Spirit Sect today, she smiled and said, “The mountains don’t turn and the waters turn. Young Master Wu Chen, we’ll see each other in the future.” With that, he flicked his sleeves and immediately turned into a purple mist that swept the rest of the Xuanming Mountain Sect disciples into the distance.
“Ghost Master Yin Shan, aren’t you planning to leave …”
In midair, Xiao Chen’s sleeves moved without any wind. At this moment, his gaze became even colder and more frightening.
The Ghost Lord of Mount Yin couldn’t help but shiver. What a formidable brat … It’s not appropriate to fight with him today. Chu Tianqing and the others should also come out later. It’s not appropriate to stay here for long!
Thinking of this, he waved his sleeve and instantly turned into a black mist, escaping with the rest of the disciples.
