Novel Full Chapter 393 - Tragic Lifeless King!
Chapter 393: Tragic Lifeless King!
Even if the evil Thearch had already burned more than 90% of his soul, the last bit was still extremely terrifying.
At least, such a force was not something normal Sages would be able to block.
In an instant, black demonic fire engulfed the whole space as it headed toward Shen Tian like a torrential wave.
“Tian’er, be careful.”
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s lightning formed chains in an orderly manner as they were interwoven densely, trying to stop the demonic flames.
“Evil Spirit, take that!” roared Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus.
Azure Lotus and his two clones dashed forward and smashed down their humongous staffs.
Boom!
The black demonic fire kept on surging and actually burnt the chains completely, injuring the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader.
Meanwhile, all three Azure Lotus were knocked back, and they spun a few rounds in the air before falling to the ground in a mess, creating a huge hole.
This outcome was to be expected. After all, the Evil Spirit burned its soul seed, and the Golden Crow Thearch’s True Spirit to unleash this attack—its might was terrifying.
“This isn’t good! Old Man Ye, it can’t be that you really died, right!?
“Stop playing around, hurry and come out to help!
“It’s not time to hoke. The bronze ring might not be useful!”
Shen Tian could clearly sense how frightening that ball of demonic flames in front of him was. The evil power even defeated Old Man Ye’s clone and made it disappear.
Shen Tian would not be able to endure such an attack!
“Hehe, die! The remaining survivors of the God of War Pagoda should have died long ago.”
The evil Thearch revealed a hideous smile as his aura suddenly erupted, making the whole ground shake.
In that instant, the tide suddenly turned again.
The bronze ring in Shen Tian’s hands suddenly emitted radiant light. Then a sword shining with silver light appeared and pierced into the sky.
At that moment, the endless evil Spirit Qi dispersed.
That light shone upon the ground with an astonishing sword intent that even blew away the clouds in the sky and made all living beings tremble.
“W-what is this…”
The evil Thearch’s body started trembling vigorously as he sensed an indomitable divine aura, which was appalling to him, invading his body.
He felt as if he could not resist at all.
As the bronze ring shone even brighter, a figure with unparalleled elegance and poise appeared in the sky.
The figure wore clothes as white as snow and was enshrouded by heavenly aura, emitting a mighty aura as she gazed down upon all living beings.
“How is it possible that… there would be such an existence in this lousy world!?”
The evil Thearch panicked as he was overtaken with terror.
In the instant that figure appeared, heaven and earth lost their color, and everything turned dim and dark.
Suddenly, the Great Empress’ figure moved, and a peerless sword of light shot out of the bronze ring.
At that moment, heaven and earth were split, order collapsed into chaos, while the fabrics of space became distorted and turned into nothingness.
“No!”
The evil Thearch let out a scream as he crazily amassed his strength in an attempt to block it.
However, that sword seemed to surpass time as it slashed down toward the evil Thearch with supreme sword intent of destruction.
The moment the evil Thearch came into contact with that sword aura, his soul was directly torn apart and dispersed.
The evil Thearch actually seemed tiny in front of this sword intent and was instantly wiped out.
However, that slash did not stop—it was as if nothing could stop it!
It was like it did not exist in this space nor in the mortal world.
That was the reason there was no way to block that slash in the mortal world’s five regions.
All countermeasures would be overcome by the slash easily and would be completely destroyed.
Clang!
A clear clanging sound reverberated throughout the tomb or even the Immortal Abode Island!
The tomb was directly split into two, smoke filled the whole place, and the laws turned chaotic.
That strike was terrifying!
A man wearing black evil-looking armor was rapidly charging toward the tomb from outside. He carried a hideous saber behind him, and his whole body was enveloped by surging demonic fire, emitting an evil and vicious aura.
That person was the Lifeless King!
Back in the Immeasurable Ancient State, the Lifeless King had originally planned to wipe out the powerful cultivators from the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground and Jade Lake Sacred Ground so that the Hurricane Lily King could absorb nourishment and become a killing weapon.
However, due to Shen Tian’s interference, not only had the Hurricane Lily King been snatched, but the Lifeless King’s past self had even been killed in that battle.
Meanwhile, the Seven Kill Sect of the Evil Spirit Sect had been completely annihilated.
That made the Lifeless King harbor endless killing intent toward Shen Tian, and he was even more eager to snatch back the Hurricane Lily King.
After finding Shen Tian’s whereabouts, the Lifeless King’s future self directly headed toward Immortal Abode Island without hesitation, wanting to kill Shen Tian.
“Shen Tian, on the same day next year, it’ll be your death anniversary.”
Lifeless King’s eyes were filled with cruelty and anticipation as he spoke.
However, just as he was prepared to enter the tomb, an astonishing sword aura was shot out from within the tomb.
That sword aura was above all laws and transcended worldliness. It was also so astonishingly fast that no one would be able to react in time.
It was simply too fast!
Before the Lifeless King could even react, the sword aura had already destroyed his physical body.
Even the space in the surrounding was completely obliterated and returned to nothingness.
One had to know that the Lifeless King had finally reached the Golden Crow Thearch tomb after crossing millions upon millions of miles of territory to hunt down Shen Tian and barely avoiding the various sacred grounds’ detection and interception attempts.
In the end, before he was even able to see Shen Tian, he was… killed by that strike.
The Lifeless King had died peacefully~
Back at Middle Ground, in the Evil Spirit Palace…
The Lifeless King’s original body was seated cross-legged when his aura started fluctuating vigorously, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
WTF!?
What is going on!?
Why would there be such a terrifying strike in this world!? My future self was killed without being able to react at all!
The Lifeless King’s aura fluctuated as terror filled his eyes. He was arrogant, but he would not think that he was invincible in the five regions.
However, even if there were powerful cultivators in the five regions who could win against him and kill him, it was impossible that he would just die before his future self could even react!
At the very least, he should be able to see who the enemy was clearly.
However, the Lifeless King had not seen clearly who had unleashed that sword aura.
The power of that sword aura made the Lifeless King doubt himself and also be depressed and resentful.
One had to know that the Lifeless King had cultivated three clones of himself and each clone had the strength of a Sage.
In the future, when all three copies merged as one, the Lifeless King would definitely be able to make great progress and reach the unimaginable supreme realm.
However, who would have expected that the Lifeless King would lose his past self and future self in such a short period?
“Damn it! There’s actually such a thing in the Golden Crow Thearch tomb!
“It’s all because of you, Shen Tian! I wouldn’t have sent my future self to the Golden Crow Thearch tomb if it was not to hunt you down!
“Darn it! I’ll definitely tear you apart to have my revenge!”
The Lifeless King’s enraged roar that was filled with resentment echoed throughout the whole palace.
…
At Immortal Abode Island’s outer region, heaven and earth shook.
“Just what happened?”
Everyone was astounded. What could cause the whole Immortal Abode Island to shake so intensely?
“There… it’s where the tomb is…”
Someone discovered something wrong and looked toward the tomb.
Then a shocking sword aura soared into the sky. It dominated the heavens, split open the clouds, and tore through space!
In that instant, a terrifying aura permeated the whole Immortal Abode Island.
“How is this possible… Just what kind of fearsome power is this!?”
A certain old woman’s voice trembled as if she had just seen something dreadful.
That power was something beyond what the various Sacred Leaders could unleash, and it would result in death if one came into contact with it!
“Is this Heavenly Punishment?”
The weaker cultivators could not help but collapse on the ground, trembling from terror.
The unmatched sharp Sword Dao of some powerful sword cultivators could not help but become unstable after sensing that sword intent.
Their Sword Dao, which they had spent their lives chasing after and refining, seemed to be counted as nothing in front of that sword intent.
Therefore, in that instant, the Sword Dao Will of countless sword cultivators broke down.
At the Golden Crow tomb…
The vast space was completely silent.
The heavenly aura around the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader and Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus trembled vigorously. It was evident that this scene had shaken them.
They had never expected that the fearsome enemy, who had even defeated Old Man Ye’s clone, would be slashed into pieces by that female figure.
What kind of existence was that Great Empress, and just how frightening would her original body be!?
“Just what did I see?”
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus seemed to be slightly dizzy; a woman of such a level was already beyond his common sense.
Although the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader did not speak, his fluctuating heavenly aura was proof that he was restless.
As expected of Tian’er, who has the potential to become an Immortal King!
Even an existence of such a caliber is willing to help him!
Looks like Divine Firmament is destined to rise up under Tian’er’s lead!
Hehehehehe~
As that figure turned around slowly, her eyes that were fixed on Shen Tian seemed to surpass time—that gaze seemed to contain innumerable words.
Before Shen Tian could utter a word, that figure turned back into a ray of light and returned to the bronze ring.
“Tian’er, are you alright?”
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader immediately rushed to Shen Tian, but he unconsciously took a look at the bronze ring on Shen Tian’s finger.
For that ring to be able to unleash an attack of that level made it evident that its value was immeasurable.
It was enough to prove that Shen Tian was an unprecedented Son of Providence with supreme providence to be able to obtain such a peerless treasure!
At the side, the Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus watched as the Sacred Leader headed toward Shen Tian.
He’s quite fast! It was such a good chance to increase my favorability with Martial Nephew…
Damn it! He actually snatched the chance to show Martial Nephew my affection!
“Martial Nephew, are you alright!?”
Of course, the old Taoist priest would not give up on this opportunity, so he hurriedly headed toward Shen Tian.
“Thank you, Master and Martial Uncle, for protecting me. I’m fine.” Shen Tian nodded.
“It’s good that you’re fine,” said the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader calmly.
If Shen Tian was not present today, then it would most likely have been difficult for them to solve this predicament.
Unexpectedly, a drastic change occurred in the Golden Crow tomb again.
The surrounding space started to fluctuate, and huge turbulent spatial waves were formed as space collapsed and revealed a terrifying turbulent flow of nothingness.
“Oh no! This space is about to collapse!”
Everyone sensed the change—the whole Golden Crow tomb was shaking non-stop due to the battle’s impact.
It was, in the end, a battle between top cultivators, so their battle prowess was simply unfathomable.
Meanwhile, it was already quite amazing for the tomb the Golden Crow Thearch had created before ascending to last this long.
However, that astonishing sword strike, which directly split the tomb into two, resulted in the originally unsteady space to start collapsing. The current situation was the most dangerous as once space collapsed, the turbulent spatial waves would surge.
Meanwhile, within the turbulent spatial waves, order would become chaotic, and laws would turn violent, so even Sages might not be able to survive for long.
The scariest thing was to lose one’s way in turbulent spatial waves.
Once one lost their way in the void, they would be unable to escape and be repeatedly attacked by the endless violent and chaotic laws. This would result in the accelerated consumption of one’s energy until they were sliced into pieces!
Therefore, even Sages would not dare to easily enter the turbulent spatial waves.
However, the space of the Golden Crow Thearch tomb was breaking apart, so turbulent spatial waves were surging in as if it was a huge bloody mouth about to devour the whole space.
“Hurry and leave!”
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s heavenly aura fluctuated vigorously as he appeared beside Shen Tian. He wanted to travel through space to leave the tomb.
“The space laws have already turned chaotic, so we can’t travel through space!” shouted Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus.
He had tried already, but there was no reaction at all.
“F*ck, that old crow has been defeated, but we still can’t go out?”
As Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus looked at the surging, turbulent spatial waves, his mouth twitched. “Martial Nephew, do you have any solution?”
His Martial Nephew was the Son of Providence after all!
In the desperate moment, Shen Tian was struck by an idea. “Master and Martial Uncle, don’t worry. I have a plan!”
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus’s eyes lit up as he asked, “What plan?”
From his point of view, Shen Tian was filled with mystery, so he might really have a way to escape.
“Martial Uncle, did you forget that the Golden Crow Thearch has already given me the Immortal Abode Island Token that can control the whole island?”
Shen Tian smiled as he took out the Immortal Abode Island Token.
It was the token that the Golden Crow Thearch had created and could control Immortal Abode Island’s array formation.
Since the Golden Crow Thearch had created the tomb, the Immortal Abode Island Token could naturally control it.
Shen Tian could totally use the Immortal Abode Island Token to teleport them outside.
“I nearly forgot that the Golden Crow Thearch had already given the whole Immortal Abode Island to you.”
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus used his hand to hit his thigh as he recalled that.
“Then I’ll send Master and Martial Uncle out now.”
Shen Tian nodded and activated the Immortal Abode Island Token, which Instantly shone with reddish-gold light.
An extremely tyrannical power gathered from space and directly created a void passageway.
“Master, Martial Uncle, let’s go,” said Shen Tian as the surrounding space started collapsing even faster.
Unpredictable dangers might occur if they stayed for even another one minute. Therefore, the three of them headed toward that void passageway without hesitation.
However, at that moment, the situation changed!
Boom!
A loud explosion echoed!
The space behind them, which was originally on the verge of collapse, suddenly exploded, and turbulent spatial waves instantly surged like torrential waves.
A huge spatial wave invaded and instantly devoured Shen Tian—he disappeared within the void!
“Martial Nephew!” roared Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus with rage burning in his eyes.
He had never expected that something like that would happen.
“Senior Brother, let’s leave this place first.”
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s heavenly aura fluctuated agitatedly, but he still pulled Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus and flew through that tunnel of golden light. That was because the turbulent spatial waves behind them were simply too fearsome. If they stayed any longer, they would most probably be devoured too.
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus clenched his fist. He was reluctant to leave, but he had no choice but to retreat outside first.
They could only think of ways to save Shen Tian if they were alive.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them quickly left the tomb through that void passageway and appeared in the Immortal Abode Island’s outer region.
Boom!
In the next second, the space completely collapsed, and the whole tomb turned into ruins.
…
“Martial Nephew, it’s all my fault! How could he die at such a young age!?”
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus could not help but cry miserably once he got out of the tomb. He looked grief-stricken to the point he would render every listener with teary eyes.
“Alright, Senior Brother, there’s no need to put on such an act as Tian’er can’t hear you.”
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s lightning and heavenly aura swayed gently, but his voice was cold and emotionless.
“Hehe, Junior Brother, you found out.”
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus’ expression instantly changed, and he could not help but scratch his head.
He originally wanted to show his concern for Shen Tian in front of the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader, but he never expected that he would be exposed.
Looks like Junior Brother is still more “cunning”!
“Junior Brother, why are you not worried about Martial Nephew’s safety at all? Tian’er is deeply trapped within the turbulent void. Aren’t you anxious at all?”
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader replied calmly, “Don’t worry. Tian’er is the Son of Providence, so it’s impossible for him to run into dangers.
“There might even be great fortuitous opportunities waiting for him.
“I believe shortly after, Tian’er will bring back more surprises for us.”
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s heavenly aura swayed gently. He had absolute confidence in his disciple.
“That’s right. Hee won’t meet with a mishap easily.”
The Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus seemed to have thought of something, and his mouth started to twitch.
Shen Tian would always be unscathed no matter how many times he faced danger in the past. Instead, he would always encounter fortuitous opportunities.
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus could not help but exclaim, “He’s really the Son of Providence!”
It was indeed aggravating for him to compare himself to Shen Tian!
“Return to the sacred ground first, then tell everyone to search for Tian’er! We need to show the sacred ground’s attitude no matter what!”
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s heavenly aura calmed down as he gradually walked toward the numerous elders and groups of disciples.
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader was already used to it.
