I Might Be A Fake Cultivator - Chapter 1529
Chapter 1529: It Was Dead for Sure
A determined expression appeared on An Lin’s face.
He could let anyone escape, but the culprit who had killed Xiaolan’s parents could not be allowed to leave!
He had to keep it here no matter at what cost!
A wind halo appeared above An Lin’s head, from which boundless divine mighty emanated.
Boom!
A paramount aura that seemed to encompass the entire world erupted from An Lin’s body, striking one with a sense of irrepressible fear, as if An Lin were an invincible being.
The God Engulfing Skeleton also sensed that power, and its expression shifted to one of shock and astonishment. “What kind of power is this?”
An Lin did not say anything. He slashed his Evil-Slaying Sword through the air, and a wisp of white wind swept toward the God Engulfing Skeleton.
The wind transformed into a white line as it flew through the air.
The God Engulfing Skeleton had sustained many severe wounds, and it did not have much energy left. In the face of the white line, its bones began to tremble uncontrollably, as if it had been struck by horror.
For some reason, a thought occurred to the God Engulfing Skeleton; a thought that told it that this wind would be able to tear through anything!
It immediately unleashed its divine dao defense using its Extreme Darkness Jewel as it continued to rush toward the river.
Whoosh!
The wind was able to easily tear through its Extreme Darkness Jewel defensive barrier.
The God Engulfing Skeleton felt a peerlessly sharp strike fall upon its skeletal dao body, Even though its body was as indestructible as an immortal tool, it was still being fractured by the attack.
“Ah!!!” It let loose a wail of agony as an excruciating pain assaulted its senses like a volcanic eruption. This was not just physical pain, but also pain on a spiritual level.
Its glittering and translucent bones dulled slightly.
The power of the wind slash gradually dissipated, but it had left an inky-black fracture that extended all the way from the God Engulfing Skeleton’s skull to its pelvic bone…
“Oh? That’s some impressive defensive prowess. I thought I would be able to slice you in half with that attack…” An Lin said with a cold expression before raising his sword again.
An expression of shock and horror appeared on the God Engulfing Skeleton’s face for the first time.
Its instincts told it that if another one of those sword strikes was to fall upon its body, it would definitely be sliced in half!
“Sacrifice! Extreme Darkness Illusionary Realm!” the God Engulfing Skeleton roared as the jewel in its left hand cracked open, upon which boundless darkness engulfed heaven and earth.
It had sacrificed a divine tool to unleash an earth-shattering spell technique!
A burst of divine-rank power violently assaulted the souls of all living beings!
A black sun hung high in the sky, plunging the entire heaven and earth into darkness.
This was an attack on a massive scale!
Some of the weaker living beings were unable to defend themselves against this power, and they perished as their souls were destroyed on the spot. Other living beings managed to hold on, but countless illusions were flashing before their eyes, plunging them into an illusionary realm from which they could not escape.
Even the Dao Integration Stage Black Spirit Snake, Xu Xiaolan, and An Lin were momentarily stunned as their souls suffered extremely violent assaults.
An Lin was able to come to his senses first as he had his wind divine halo.
He immediately summoned the power of the Heavenly Wind God to unleash a sword strike, which sliced the black sun in the sky in half.
Boom!
The realm of darkness was destroyed.
Light shone down upon the world again.
All of the flowers on the ground began to wilt, and the white bones had already been buried.
The Styx river had already disappeared.
The God Engulfing Skeleton had also disappeared along with it.
Heaven and earth fell silent, as if this was the deathly silence in the aftermath of an earth-shattering battle.
An Lin took a deep breath, and an indignant expression appeared on his face. “F*ck! What’s with all of these Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures sacrificing their divine tools?”
Emperor Yi Deng had done so, and now, the God Engulfing Skeleton had followed in his footsteps.
Why had he never heard of a sacrificial method for divine tools?
He looked down at his Evil-Slaying Sword.
Little Xie seemed to have read his mind, and she chuckled coldly. “You’re thinking about sacrificing me? I’m sorry, but I won’t allow myself to be sacrificed by you even if you die.”
An Lin: “…”
What a cruel sword spirit.
“Don’t worry, I won’t sacrifice you even if I die. You’re far too adorable, after all.” An Lin repaid her cruelty with kindness.
Little Xie trembled slightly and was stumped by that unexpectedly benevolent response.
An Lin silently sheathed his Evil-Slaying Sword, and his wind divine halo slowly disappeared.
He turned toward Xu Xiaolan.
She was staring blankly at the dried-up river while holding her Dragon Sparrow Sword tightly in her hand. Her fingertips had turned white from how hard she was gripping her sword.
“Xiaolan…” An Lin called in a gentle voice.
Xu Xiaolan turned toward him with tears shimmering in her eyes. She bit down upon her lower lip, and a hint of disconsolation and indignation could be seen on her face. “An Lin, why am I so useless? The God Engulfing Skeleton was right there, yet I…”
An Lin made his way over to Xu Xiaolan before enveloping her in a tight hug and offering gentle, comforting words, “It’s alright. We still have heaps of chances in the future. So what if it lives for an extra day or two?”
He could feel that the woman in his arms was still trembling, clearly yet to regain control over her emotions.
In the end, Xiaolan slumped feebly into his arms.
“Wha…” An Lin faltered slightly as he looked down at the unconscious woman in his arms before coming to a realization. “She must have overexerted herself from excessive usage of that mystic technique.”
He carefully detected Xiaolan’s condition to find that her body and meridians had been very severely damaged. Thankfully, those injuries could recover with some rest and recuperation, but she was not going to be able to fight for a very long time.
An Lin fed Xu Xiaolan an immortal pill before placing her inside his Blood Soul Jade Coffin and carrying the coffin on his back.
This was the best way to protect Xiaolan on this battlefield.
Black Spirit Snake descended from the sky, and her lips twitched at the sight of the coffin on An Lin’s back.
This scene really reminded her of those cliched stories where the male lead carried the deceased female lead on a quest to resurrect her.
“The God Engulfing Skeleton fled, and the Hundred Head Divine Monster also fled. The Heavenly Human Tribe Great Generals have all been killed,” Black Spirit Snake informed.
Their top priority was to kill the most powerful beings among the enemy forces.
As such, killing the Heavenly Human Tribe Great Generals had become their number one goal.
An Lin shook his head upon hearing this. “The Hundred Head Divine Monster won’t be able to escape. Unless it also has a divine tool to sacrifice, it’s dead for sure, just like that Void Spirit Tribe mighty figure at the Return to Void Pinnacle Stage who had thought that it had escaped from Nan Chao City…”
Black Spirit Snake turned toward An Lin with an inquisitive glance.
A mysterious smile appeared on his face in response. “I’ll keep it a secret for now…”
Rumble…
Heaven and earth suddenly began to mourn.
All living beings were struck by a sense of sorrow.
Black Spirit Snake’s eyes widened with astonishment.
A calm and collected smile appeared on An Lin’s face. “I told you so.”
