As the Universe Turns - Chapter 612
Chapter 612 Calamity
The entire Demon Palace trembled endlessly. The restrictive divine lightning seemed to have torn apart the void as it charged towards Xiao Chen, roaring angrily, as if it wanted to tear everything in front of it apart!
Not only was Xuan Jizi shocked by this scene, even Shen Quezi, who was outside the hall, was deeply shocked by this scene.
“Boom!”
With a loud explosion, the restrictive divine lightning struck Xiao Chen’s body. The entire Demon Palace trembled violently. As the dust flew, Xiao Chen was sent flying. His entire body was bloodshot, charred black, and even his blood had solidified. He emitted waves of pungent smoke.
After a long time, the thick smoke on his body gradually dissipated. The surroundings finally became quiet again. The entire Demon Palace suddenly had a sound of needles falling. The terrifying scene just now had appeared in Xuan Jizi’s mind again and again. At this moment, his legs involuntarily trembled.
He was still forty zhang away from the end of the restriction, but the restriction was already so terrifying. If he were to arrive at Xiao Chen’s position half a month later, wouldn’t the restriction lightning he would have to endure be even heavier?
At this moment, he gradually became a little timid, but behind him, there was already a sea of flames and blades, and there was no way to retreat. What should he do now? Do you want to keep going? If that brat died, even if he went over, he wouldn’t be able to get anything but a charred corpse …
After a long time, Xuan Jizi did not dare to continue forward. He stared at Xiao Chen without blinking until Xiao Chen’s fingers suddenly moved.
“He’s not dead!”
Xuan Jizi was suddenly shocked. After being struck by so many restrictive divine lightning bolts, he was already injured to this extent, yet he still had a single breath left. Was this kid really someone with an extraordinary willpower, or was he an undying body?
Outside the Demon Palace, Shen Quezi also felt a deep tremor. At this moment, it was as if he had met a terrifying opponent. He had never seen such a terrifying person with such a terrifying will.
Suddenly, he thought of something. That brat in front of him was someone who didn’t die when he jumped off the Immortal Burial Cliff in Xuanqing Sect …
Suddenly, he trembled deeply. Was Junior Brother really able to successfully seize this brat’s good fortune? But right now, Junior Brother has no way out …
Inside the Demon Palace, Xiao Chen fell to the ground motionlessly. His aura was already extremely weak. Previously, he was still ten feet away from the end of the restriction, but he had just been sent flying by the restriction divine lightning. Now, he was already in front of the end of the restriction. It was only a foot away. He only needed to climb a little further before he could get out.
In the path of cultivation, one would have to go through countless tribulations. As for the Grand Dao of Formula, I don’t know how many tribulations Master has gone through to achieve today, but how could he fall under such a small tribulation today …
Can’t fall, can’t fall …
Xiao Chen’s consciousness was sometimes clear and sometimes blurry, but at this moment, he couldn’t even open his eyes. He raised his hands and used all of his strength to lift his chest off the ground. Then, he tried to climb forward. However, his hands were no longer able to support this heavy body. This distance of less than a foot was as far away as the ends of the earth.
“Putong!”
A heavy sound echoed throughout the entire Demon Palace. Dust scattered everywhere. In the end, he fell down and no longer had any strength to continue forward.
Behind him, Xuan Jizi and Shen Quezi’s hearts seemed to have finally sunk. Was he dead? Was he still dead in the end?
The entire hall was silent, and no sound could be heard anymore. There was no sound of a heartbeat, no sound of weak breathing.
Cold, endless cold.
His body slowly began to merge with the icy coldness of the Demon Palace. At this moment, it was as if a divine soul was traveling outside. What was that icy coldness? Did you go back to that day? Is it raining again?
“Admit defeat. If you continue to compete, you will die …”
“Admit defeat … did you lose … no …”
What is it? It’s so cold.
Xiao Chen’s consciousness became more and more blurry, as if it was on an icy rainy night. He was helpless, hesitant, and cold. He fell to the ground until someone slowly picked him up. There was only one person in the world, who was connected by fate in his previous life and this life.
“Master …”
“Master, she never liked me, did she?”
“Don’t talk nonsense. Your master likes you the most …”
“Chen’er, get up …”
“Master …”
“Master’s favorite … is me … I … can’t lose …”
At the last moment, Xiao Chen suddenly opened his eyes. In an instant, he dispersed the cold around him, completely dispelling the coldness that filled the surroundings and wanted to devour him.
Behind him, Xuan Jizi and Shen Quezi were both shocked. Could it be that he … had come back to life? The two of them really couldn’t believe what they saw in front of them. How could there be such a terrifying person in this world?
“Rumble!”
It was as if the restriction had been activated once again. Suddenly, a purple lightning began to condense above the Demon Palace. A terrifying restriction aura instantly enveloped the entire Demon Palace. This time, the restriction lightning was even more powerful and terrifying than the previous time. Once struck, it would be annihilated!
At this moment, Xiao Chen used all of his strength and pounced outside. With a loud “rumble”, the restrictive lightning struck behind him, cracking the ground he was on.
After such a shocking scene, Xuan Jizi and Shen Quezi were stunned. Both of them were deeply shocked. They were unable to regain their senses for a long time. Only when they saw Xiao Chen slowly stand up and walk towards a dark corner of the Demon Palace did Xuan Jizi suddenly wake up.
He had to break through the restrictions of the Demon Palace as soon as possible. Only by taking advantage of the fact that the other party was seriously injured would he be able to successfully seize the other party’s good fortune. Once the other party recovered, he truly did not have any confidence that he could seize the good fortune of such a person.
Thinking of this, Xuan Jizi did not hesitate any longer. He immediately rode his magic treasure Immortal Sword and attempted to break through this layer of restrictions again.
At this moment, Xiao Chen staggered into the dark corner. It turned out that there was a stone door in the dark corner. Inside the stone door was a corridor. After passing through the corridor, there was a spacious stone room.
The stone room was already covered in dust. Its four corners were covered in spider webs, suffused with a suffocating smell. Below the southeast corner, there was a figure sitting there. However, that person had long since died for tens of millions of years, and even his soul had long since been annihilated. Now, there was only a skeleton left, still sitting there.
When Xiao Chen arrived at the stone room, he no longer had the strength. He sat down and raised the dust on the ground, making the stone room even more pungent.
After an unknown amount of time, the entire stone room was silent. There was only a skeleton and a half-dead person who was charred all over. Sitting like this, it looked a little strange.
