As the Universe Turns - Chapter 417
Chapter 417 Blood Bath (2)
Seeing that he was about to barge in, everyone on this side immediately moved and blocked him. Seeing that people were coming to block him, Xiao Chen did not hesitate. The Genuine energy in his hand swiftly spun and slashed out. The sword light instantly pierced through the air, causing the first batch of people to vomit blood and fly backwards.
“Anyone who obstructs us today, kill!”
There was no sympathy in Xiao Chen’s eyes. Most of these people in Tomb of Gods and Demons were extremely vicious people. Only by being strong would they be able to intimidate these people.
He clearly understood this point in his heart, so after he finished speaking, he waved his sword and slashed to the right. With a “rumble”, the sword energy surged out, and dozens of people were similarly slashed into the air.
After several consecutive sword strikes, no one was able to get close to him. The people in the distance couldn’t help but feel a bit shocked. How could this person be so powerful? Could it be that what he used was the pure Profound Sect Sword Qi?
Gongsun Yun’s eyes turned slightly cold. He raised his hand and the four middle-aged men behind him flew over. These four middle-aged men had obviously reached the Profound Comprehension Realm and instantly flew in front of Xiao Chen.
Seeing the four of them flying over, Xiao Chen did not hesitate. He slashed out with his right hand and the sword energy flew through the air. With a “boom”, the first Zi Yi middle-aged man on the right was sent flying. At the same time, Genuine energy swiftly turned his left hand and executed the roar of a dead wood dragon. Before everyone could clearly see the roar, the red-clothed middle-aged man on the left was also sent flying.
The remaining two green-clothed middle-aged men attacked together from the front. Under the terrifying force, the ground was split open. The Fallen Butterfly was almost suffocated by the strong wind.
Seeing the ferocious momentum of the two, Xiao Chen also activated the Nine Yin Nine Yang Profound Technique in an instant. He pushed his palms forward and two strands of Yin Yang Profound Qi instantly charged forward like mountains and seas, causing the two middle-aged men’s palm power to dissipate instantly. Before the two of them could react, they were sent flying by the two strands of Yin Yang Profound Qi.
This scene shocked many people in the distance. Everyone held their breath. Those were four experts at the Profound Comprehension Realm, but in front of this person, they were actually so weak.
Old Evil and the others stood in the distance, staring blankly. They couldn’t help but feel a little afraid when they recalled this. How could they have thought that this brat had actually killed the Immortal Alliance messenger outside? If he hadn’t been badly injured earlier, they would have already died …
“You can’t leave this place today … Go!”
Gongsun Yun’s eyes were cold. With a command, dozens of more figures flew up. The rest of them reacted at this moment. If they let this person escape today, they would never leave Earth Fiend Domain again. Thinking of this, many people immediately attacked.
After half an incense stick of time passed, the sky became darker and darker. Dark clouds enveloped the entire valley. Many people began to tremble. No matter how ferocious they were, they still felt uneasy at this moment.
Xiao Chen was walking on the bloody ground. The sword in his hand had been cut open and blood was dripping continuously. His body had long since been dyed red with blood, as if he had just emerged from the Senluo Blood Prison. Luo Die’s face had already turned pale from fear.
“Is there anything else …”
His voice was terrifyingly low, and his eyes were even colder. Everyone felt a chill down their spines when they saw his pair of red eyes.
There were already many corpses piled up in the valley, and blood was flowing into the river at the bottom. Gongsun Yun frowned. He never expected that this person would be so strong. Even he suddenly had a trace of fear, especially those strange cultivation techniques that he couldn’t figure out.
At this moment, no one dared to stand in their way. No matter how many people went, they would only be courting death. Not only was this person’s cultivation far above theirs, even his cultivation technique was strange and unfathomable, something they were far inferior to.
“Uh …”
Suddenly, Xiao Chen let out a muffled snort. Then, the hand holding the sword trembled.
In the next moment, his face suddenly turned a little pale. It was obvious that the backlash of the Three Elements Heart Burning Art had arrived. Although this technique could greatly increase one’s strength in a short period of time, the backlash that followed was extremely terrifying. Otherwise, how could it be banned by Adept Qingxuan?
“What’s wrong with you …”
Seeing his face suddenly turn pale, Luo Die’s heart trembled slightly. She was worried that his injuries hadn’t healed yet, and now, he was attacking again.
“It’s fine, block it for me, don’t let them see …”
Xiao Chen immediately sent a divine sense to her, trying to conceal the changes in his body. However, how could such a small change escape Gongsun Yun’s eyes?
“Kid, have you finally exhausted Genuine energy?”
Gongsun Yun’s eyes were cold. At this moment, it was like a bolt of lightning that flew in front of Xiao Chen in an instant. Previously, he had been somewhat afraid of Xiao Chen’s strange and unfathomable cultivation technique, but now that he knew that Xiao Chen was at the end of his rope, what was there to be afraid of?
He moved as fast as lightning. His two fingers condensed and shot towards Xiao Chen. Luo Die was shocked. Xiao Chen pushed her away and similarly, his two fingers shot towards Gongsun Yun.
With a “bang”, the two fingers collided, causing the nearby rocks to shatter into powder. Xiao Chen was shaken by this power, and he finally gushed out a mouthful of blood, continuously retreating.
Seeing that he was injured, Luo Die’s face was shocked. She instantly moved over and supported him. Seeing that his face was getting paler and paler, she couldn’t help but tremble slightly, “How are you …”
“Nothing …”
Xiao Chen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and his gaze was still fixed on Gongsun Yun. At this moment, he suddenly felt a sudden pain in his heart.
This sudden heartache caused his entire body to tremble and his face to turn even paler. However, this was not the backlash of the Three Elements Heart Burning Art, nor was it the injury caused by Gongsun Yun’s finger just now. Rather, it was … Weiyang!
“Wei Yang …”
At this moment, it was as if he had sensed something. Suddenly, his heart ached endlessly. This was a kind of heartache that almost made him cry, like a kind of heartache of bidding farewell.
“Wei Yang, Wei Yang … No, no!”
Suddenly, his eyes were bloodshot. He picked up Genuine energy and rushed forward. When the person in front saw him suddenly rush over, they were all shocked and quickly stepped forward to stop him.
“Those who block me die!”
Xiao Chen’s eyes turned red as he slashed out with his sword. A hundred zhang blood red sword qi immediately whistled away. How could those people block such a terrifying sword qi? After the sword qi passed, the deaths and injuries of the hundreds of people seemed to rain blood in midair.
“This brat … how could he?”
Gongsun Yun couldn’t help but be shocked. Earlier, he had clearly seen that Xiao Chen was about to run out of Genuine energy, and then was injured by his finger. But now, why did he look even stronger?
His eyes turned cold as he circulated the Genuine energy once more. A whisk of dust swept behind Xiao Chen’s head. Although the whisk was gentle, it was almost invincible under the stimulation of Genuine energy. Luo Die was immediately shocked, “Be careful!”
Xiao Chen also sensed the strong wind coming from behind him. He turned around and struck out with his palm. With a “boom”, the Nine Yin Nine Yang Profound Technique activated Genuine energy and Gongsun Yun’s whisk collided, causing the nearby rocks to shatter once again.
But after all, Gongsun Yun was already half a step down from the Profound Realm. In addition, Xiao Chen already had the backlash of the Three Elements Heart Burning Art on him. At this moment, he was shaken by the other party’s whisk, and he spat out blood again and retreated.
Luo Die instantly went over to support him, her face filled with shock, “How are you …”
“She … Something happened to her …”
Blood gushed out of Xiao Chen’s mouth. His eyes were wide open as he muttered to himself. The bad premonition in his heart was getting stronger and stronger.
Gongsun Yun saw that his expression suddenly became somewhat strange. He was afraid that there would be deceit in it, so he didn’t dare to rashly go over. At this moment, a red sword light suddenly flew over from the distant horizon. Gongsun Yun focused his gaze and saw that the sword light turned into a figure in midair. That person wore a red robe and was a sturdy middle-aged man.
“Gongsun Sect Master, there are so many people here today. After so long, can’t you even capture a small junior?”
The red-clothed middle-aged man was not like the others, respectful to Gongsun Yun. Instead, his words at this moment seemed to carry a hint of mockery.
Gongsun Yun was not annoyed. He only said indifferently, “Sect Leader Luo Huo must be busy with the internal affairs of the sect. Otherwise, how could he appear at this moment?”
This red-robed middle-aged man had also subdued more than ten sects. He was known as the Luo Huo Sect Master. Although his momentum was not as strong as Gongsun Yun’s, his own strength was not much different from Gongsun Yun’s.
He said indifferently, “There’s no need to say more polite words. Let’s take this brat down first.”
Seeing that the two of them were actually going to attack together, Luo Die was immediately shocked. Both of them were already half a step down from the Profound Realm, so it was not unnecessary for them to attack together.
“Wait!”
She stretched out her hand and looked at the two with a deathly pale face. “I know the Immortal Alliance better than you. Can you listen to me first? Even if you take the Fusang Flower, even if you capture him, it’s impossible for the Immortal Alliance to exchange for freedom. The Immortal Alliance will never let go of the people in the God’s Demon Tomb. There will definitely be deceit. Trust me …”
“Who are you?”
Sect Leader Luo Huo’s gaze fell on this beautiful woman. He thought to himself that such a beautiful woman was truly rare in the world, and it was impossible for her to be an ordinary person.
When Luo Die saw that there was something to talk about, she calmed down a bit and said, “It doesn’t matter who I am, but it’s impossible for you to get out like this. Even if you go out, you will definitely be killed by the Immortal Alliance in the end … Now that he and I are being pursued by the Immortal Alliance, we should cooperate, not kill each other …”
After hearing this, many people in the valley began to whisper. Could it be that the exchange of Fusang Flowers for freedom was a conspiracy in itself? If the Immortal Alliance opened the seal and set up an ambush outside, wouldn’t they be sending them to their deaths if they went out like this …
“Then we have to capture him first!”
Seeing that her morale was starting to waver, Gongsun Yun’s eyes turned cold and he could no longer allow her to continue. With a movement of his body, he threw a palm at her and Xiao Chen.
“Move aside …”
Xiao Chen forcefully held his breath and pushed her away. He sent a palm towards Gongsun Yun. With a “rumble”, the two palms collided and Xiao Chen was shaken back again.
“Uh …”
Another mouthful of blood gushed out. Xiao Chen was unable to hold on any longer. Luo Die instantly went over and supported him. Her face was extremely pale. Could it be that the two of them were really going to die here today?
At this moment, the entire valley suddenly trembled violently, as if something was about to rush out from the ground, causing everyone to feel uneasy at this moment, as if they were trembling from their souls.
“What’s going on …”
Hierarch Luo Huo and Gongsun Yun were also on alert. Not long after, the valley trembled more and more violently. Then, in the valley in front of them, the ground suddenly split apart. Afterwards, terrifying black mist suddenly surged up from those cracks.
“That’s … Gas of Gods and Demons!”
At this moment, everyone’s expressions changed. Seeing the divine devil aura surging up, they no longer cared about Xiao Chen and retreated.
“Back … Quick! Back!”
At this moment, faced with the sudden surge of the devil aura, the cultivators present were like ordinary people who saw the flood surge. They rushed to turn around and flee for their lives, no longer caring about the Fusang Flower.
During their hundreds of years in Tomb of Gods and Demons, they understood one thing. In Tomb of Gods and Demons, there was nothing more terrifying than the aura of these Fiendgods. Not to mention the mere 20,000 people here, even 200,000 people would be devoured by these terrifying black mist in an instant.
