The Great Wild God - Chapter 448
Chapter 448 Fall Short of Success at the Last Stage
The pair of Scarlet Flame Scaled Wings on the back of the demonic ape fluttered strangely, and the Scarlet Flint Stone Staff in its hand turned into afterimages that filled the sky as it pounced towards Su Junchen. Endless red lotus flames were released, forming a storm of flames that swept over.
At this moment, Chen Xun had the illusion that even the air would melt.
During the last fierce battle, the Fire Winged Demonic Ape’s Boundless Staff Shadow was only able to destroy the Azure Lotus Blaze. Unexpectedly, it had already advanced to the next level. It was actually able to destroy the Red Lotus Blaze that even the Nine Nether Iron could burn.
Although Chen Xun had already cultivated the Nine Tribulations Body Tempering Technique to the third level, and although the Azure Phoenix Divine Bird had taught him the Heavenly Flame Secret Insight, and his ability to withstand the burning of Heavenly Flames was far stronger than that of his fellow cultivators, if he was truly dragged into this boundless red lotus flames, it would be extremely difficult for him to endure for long.
The Azure Phoenix Divine Bird had passed down his Heavenly Flame divine ability, and Chen Xun had only grasped the Blue Lotus Flame Sea.
Back then, he had only taken a glance at the Veluriyam Flame Sea. Seeing this scene in front of him, Chen Xun felt that they would delay entering the depths of the cave for another three to five years. At that time, if this demonic ape truly cultivated the Red Lotus Flame Sea divine ability, Su Junchen and the Twelve Origin Pill Taoist would be unable to suppress it, right?
Daoist Wu Yi and Jiang Yunxian had no choice but to use their protective divine abilities to resist the high temperature of the scarlet flames.
However, Su Junchen, who was wearing golden armor, was not afraid. His thin face was filled with solemnity. The horns of the Golden Scaled Giant Dragon circling above his head were ferocious. He spread his teeth and claws across the mountains and rivers. He was completely unafraid of the burning red lotus flames. As the dragon head roared, lightning surged out and pounced towards the Fire Winged Demonic Ape.
Although three months ago, Chen Xun and Princess Yanling had joined forces and fought against this demonic ape, this demonic ape was still stuck in a bottleneck for three months, and its momentum was far less frightening than it was today.
This was also related to the fact that the demonic ape was locked in such a narrow space, and Su Junchen had to deal with the demonic ape within a stick of incense.
The two sides had erupted with all their energy from the very beginning, and it was naturally indescribable and soul-stirring.
In this game, King of Qing was still at an absolute disadvantage. Chen Xun did not want to see Chun Ling Prefecture inherit the throne and take over Cloud Continent. At this moment, he could no longer secretly rape and play tricks.
Chen Xun controlled the three groups of fire ape puppets and blocked the large group of fire apes that were pouncing over from the left wing. At the same time, he protected the Northern Profound Armor heavily, so that the Northern Profound Armor could immerse all of its mind, soul, and spirit into the Profound Armament Seal and use the Profound Armament Technique to assist Su Junchen in his fierce battle against the Fire Winged Demon Ape.
The Northern Mysterious Armor was able to use the Dragon Slaying Halberd divine ability as well as the first major completion stage Fragmentary Star Fist. Rows of fist shadows shot out like mountains and seas, causing the red lotus flames to roll towards the Fire Winged Demonic Ape.
Seeing this scene, Su Junchen was also secretly shocked. He secretly felt that Mountain Parasol’s hidden strength might not be only revealed on the surface. Perhaps there would be even more powerful mountain protection divine beasts protecting him after serving the demons.
Without so many powerful devil attendants and spirit beasts to help him, no matter how lucky Chen Xun was, he would never have been able to bring the Mirage Dragon corpse and the Copper Thunder Pillar back to Mountain Parasol in Spring Mausoleum County, the Green Scaled Demon Clan, and the eyes, noses, and bases of many powerful Fallen Star Sea Demons.
Seeing that Chen Xun was indeed going all out to help them capture and kill this demonic ape, Su Junchen could also understand that Chen Xun was sincere about cooperating. He was also right, Chen Xun and Chun Lingjun were only personal enemies, but there was no room for two tigers between Chen Xun and the Marquis Manor of Yuan Dynasty, involving the control of Cang Lan and Tu Shan.
What Chen Xun, True Monarch Crimson Brow, and Gu Yangzi were involved in was the inheritance of the Divine Night Sect’s dao heritage and its leadership over the outer forces of the Divine Night Sect.
These were all fundamental interests that couldn’t be compromised, and they decided that the conflicts between Chen Xun, the Marquis of Yuan Dynasty, True Monarch Crimson Brow, and Gu Yangzi could only be suppressed and couldn’t be mediated.
Su Junchen felt that this was also good. Only in this way could Chen Xun truly be used by King of Qing.
Thinking through this, Su Junchen doubled the power of the Golden Scaled Dragon Zhang Ya Wu Ya to tear apart the Fire Winged Demonic Ape. He even slapped out a divine pearl that blossomed with multicolored light from his bag of holding and threw it into the air.
The Golden Scaled Flood Dragon opened its mouth and grabbed the divine pearl. Five enormous golden lightning pillars surged out of the pearl, converging a little before directly smashing towards the Fire Winged Demonic Ape’s demonic pupils.
The Five Thunder Gathering Crown was still unable to completely knock the Fire Winged Demonic Ape down, but wave after wave of Five Thunder Gathering Crown continued to descend towards the Fire Winged Demonic Ape, instantly suppressing the boundless rod shadow and the red lotus flames to an invisible state.
“Five Thunder God Pearls!”
Seeing this scene, Chen Xun was secretly shocked. Four thousand years ago, when the Xi Martial Emperor expelled the Ji clan to fight under heaven, the Five Thunder God Pearl was once a famous magic treasure in the Xi Martial Emperor’s hands. He never expected that it would be given to Su Junchen for sacrifice today.
Thinking back, the Sky Sealing Spirit Banner that Su Junchen had just taken out and the Six Yang Dragon Sealing Banner that Princess Yanling had used should be the powerful magic treasures that Emperor Xi Wu or the Thirty-Six Divine Generals had sacrificed back then, right?
The fact that these magic treasures could reach Su Junchen, Princess Yanling, and the others meant that the Xi Martial Emperor and several of the thirty-six surviving Divine Generals would surely obtain even more powerful magic treasures after entering the Heavenly Jun Great World.
Chen Xun thought to himself, Perhaps 4,000 years ago, When the Jiang family had just expelled the Ji family from ruling Cloud Continent, Together, the seven sects were able to suppress the Jiang Clan. However, during these four thousand years, the Jiang Clan controlled the spatial passageways leading to the Heavenly Jun Great World, the Heavenly Furnace Battlefield, and the other five Middle and Small Thousand Worlds. They even obtained the full support of the ancient Jiang Clan’s royal family. Their strength had increased far beyond imagination, while the seven sects had remained incomplete, and their development was extremely slow.
Right now, the other six sects might not be able to suppress the Jiang Clan, but fortunately, there were many contradictions within the Jiang Clan. Emperor Xi Wu wanted to open up the Heavenly Jun Great World, while the various prefecture lords and kings fought for the throne.
None of this seemed to be able to escape the cycle of Heaven’s Will.
“Imperial Daughter, quickly take out the Soul Seizing Orb, capture one soul and one soul!” Su Junchen said.
The Spatial Locking Array could still last for a while. The Golden Scaled Giant Dragon Imperial Envoy, the Five Thunder God Pearl, had completely suppressed the demonic ape, and the other fire apes were unable to break through Chen Xun, Adept Wu Yi, and the others. This was precisely the time for Princess Yanling to lock the demonic ape’s soul.
Su Junchen was extremely excited when he thought about how a Fire Winged Monster Ape that had cultivated a golden body would be able to be driven by them in the future.
However, before Jiang Yunxian could take out the Soul Detention Orb and step forward, a burst of earth-shattering impact suddenly rushed down from the giant rock above her head.
This intense impact did not directly tear apart the Space Locking Array, but Chen Xun raised his head to look at the cracks in the rock stratum above his head. He was shocked and shouted, “It must be Lord Crimson Brow who used the Earth Shaking Talisman to destroy the entire mountain range!”
The impact caused by the Earth-shaking Dao Talisman was second to none. The nearly ten thousand zhang tall mountain collapsed. No matter how powerful the space-locking formation was, it could not support a space of a hundred thousand zhang in diameter alone.
“Hurry up and attack!” Su Junchen shouted at the stunned Princess Yanling.
The mountain collapsed and could not suppress them to death, but once the Spatial Locking Array was broken, they would no longer be able to block the Fire Winged Monster Ape’s path of retreat.
Although the Fire-Winged Demonic Ape was suppressed by the Five Thunder God Pearl, its soul was extremely powerful. Even if Jiang Yunxian had the most precious treasure of the Soul Binding Pearl, extracting one soul and one soul from the Fire-Winged Demonic Ape would not be an easy task.
“Boom!” Another wave of intense shockwaves struck directly underground. The incomparably thick rock stratum above his head collapsed. Spiritual light exploded above his head, and the Space Locking Array shattered. Eight Space Locking Spiritual Flag fell from the stone wall.
The Fire Winged Demonic Ape spat out boundless flames, forcing Su Junchen and Jiang Yunxian to save themselves.
It couldn’t care less about the ape children and monsters, and in the blink of an eye, the monster’s body had already drilled into the crypt.
Even if the mountain did not collapse, Chen Xun and the others would not be able to catch up with the speed of the demonic ape. They could only watch helplessly as it disappeared behind the falling rocks.
Chen Xun and the others had extremely high cultivation bases, as well as the Purple Night Lightning Tower’s magic treasures. Naturally, they weren’t afraid of the collapse of the 10,000 foot cliff stone. However, there was endless boiling magma underground. The boiling magma was even endless Heavenly Flame Dipper Fiends that even Immortal Buddha Gods and Devils could refine. Chen Xun and the others didn’t dare to let the 10,000 foot cliff stone crush the ground and be engulfed by the endless boiling magma.
They didn’t care about regret, nor did they care about cursing Lord Crimson Brow, who was running over to stir up trouble at this moment. Everyone immediately used their Earth Drilling Escape Stone divine ability to withstand the falling rocks and drill through the cracks as much as possible to escape to the ground before the magma surged up.
Chen Xun put the Northern Profound Armor, Snake Wuxin, Crimson Sea, and black tea into the Purple Night Lightning Pagoda, leaving no space for the fire ape puppets. He could only bear to part with them.
Su Junchen only had time to retrieve the Eight Space Locking Spiritual Flag.
Chen Xun followed Daoist Wu Yi and emerged from the ground with a grey face. He saw several streams of magma spurting out from the distance, and the Heavenly Flame Dipper Fiend that surged out from the ground even formed an incomparably magnificent pillar of red lotus fire that seemed to be about to melt the void.
Seeing this, Chen Xun was secretly lucky. Without the Heavenly Flame Astral Fiend’s Red Lotus Fire Pillar directly attacking them, even Su Junchen would have lost half of his life.
Chen Xun didn’t need to worry so much about Su Wuyang. He saw Lord Crimson Brow, Jiang Bin, and the others parked thousands of feet away in the air. At this moment, his teeth were itching with hatred.
As for Su Junchen and Jiang Yunxian, who had failed, they had the intention to devour Lord Crimson Brow alive.
“Old thief with red eyebrows, what do you mean?” Su Junchen bluntly raised his voice and angrily scolded. Without directly hacking at us, he was already quite restrained. “Are you trying to kill us and then quickly?”
When Lord Crimson Brow saw Su Junchen, Daoist Wu Yi, Princess Yanling, Chen Xun, and the others enter from the ground, he was also secretly shocked.
If he had the courage to kill Su Junchen and Princess Yanling, he wouldn’t have tolerated Chen Xunji’s four sects until now.
He really didn’t expect Su Junchen and the others to be underground at this moment.
At the same time, Lord Crimson Brow secretly rejoiced that if he made a move, he was afraid that the demonic ape had already been sent to Su Junchen, which would be a bad thing for the Spring Mausoleum Monarch.
Seeing Su Junchen’s anxious state, Lord Crimson Brow could guess that they had suffered a loss.
“Su Hou, what do you mean? Su Hou, the imperial daughter didn’t stay in the castle. Why did you appear beneath the Heavenly Volcano?” Lord Crimson Brow asked loudly.
Lord Crimson Brow’s situation was absolutely not fake. Jiang Bin, Yuan He, Tian Heng, and the others beside him were even more shocked. They did not expect that Su Junchen and Princess Yanling would actually come out of the ground in a sorry state under their noses.
Princess Yanling was doted on by the Xi Martial Emperor, so it was fine to fight for the throne, but the Jiang Imperial Clan’s disciples would definitely not tolerate killing each other for the throne.
“What a misunderstanding. Why didn’t Marquis Su and Imperial Daughter inform us when they arrived at the Heavenly Volcano?” Jiang Bin asked.
Su Junchen and Imperial Daughter Yanling were also feeling unspeakable bitterness. They were extremely angry in their hearts. Even if they wanted to vent their anger, they could not do anything to Lord Crimson Brow and the others.
They didn’t seem to have any reason to divulge the matter to Emperor Xi Wu.
Su Junchen was so angry that one Buddha ascended to the heavens and two Buddhas extinguished the world. His hands trembled, but he still managed to suppress the anger in his heart.
Chen Xun wished he could cut this old thief Lord Crimson Brow into pieces. He now understood that Lord Crimson Brow and the others did not dare to openly kill Su Junchen and Princess Yanling. However, they knew that he was leading a group to seal the cave and destroy it without announcing it. Wasn’t it obvious that they were trying to kill him?
“Don’t you know that Marquis Su and the imperial daughter are underground? Don’t you know that I have been ordered to guard the underground cave? Old thief Red-browed, you grandsons, remember for this daddy that today’s vengeance will be repaid twice as much in the future!” Chen Xun cursed loudly. He didn’t stay here either. He directly flew towards the south. If Su Wuyang and the others came out of the cave in time, they would immediately leave the dangerous Heavenly Volcano.
Before everyone else, Lord Crimson Brow’s face twitched when Chen Xun pointed at him and scolded the old thief.
He wanted to get rid of Chen Xun by the way today, but he didn’t expect that it would be a failure. However, seeing Su Junchen and Princess Yanling being extremely furious, he knew that if he attacked Chen Xun again, they would definitely not stand idly by!
“In the future, I will cut this little thief into thousands of pieces. Only then will I be able to resolve the hatred in my heart.” Lord Crimson Brow said hatefully.
