Chapter 2376 - 2462: The Golden Butterfly Saintess’s Curse

Chapter 2376: Chapter 2462: The Golden Butterfly Saintess’s Curse

In the blink of an eye, Bright Temple had already lost eight out of ten, leaving six people. These six stared at the Five Poison Array around them, standing in a circle, every face filled with dread.

Because after adding the Jade Golden Toad, the Five Poison Array had changed drastically. They were now completely unable to resist it. And this full-version Five Poison Array could move and attack; it had already enveloped them completely, and there was no way out.

In just a few breaths of time, people from the City Lord’s manor were already screaming miserably one after another.

These people usually lived pampered lives, when had they ever run into such a catastrophe? At this moment, they had only blocked a few rounds of attacks and were already completely unable to hold on, getting injured again and again.

Canglan Zhenren and Cangqing Zhenren both looked extremely grim. They and the powerhouses of Wangtian City were gathered together, yet they knew that inside this Five Poison Array, they simply wouldn’t last long.

"Damnable, damnable! Our Bright Temple is one of the Hidden Three Temples, vastly powerful. In the Hundred Clan Domain, no one has ever dared offend us. Tianxie Emperor, have you gone mad? Your Heavenly People Clan’s foundation in the Hundred Clan Domain hasn’t even settled yet, and you dare set up such a powerful enemy. This is something neither you nor the entire Heavenly People Clan can afford."

One expert of Bright Temple knew they couldn’t hold on much longer. In the end there would be only one outcome—die inside the Five Poison Array. At this moment he couldn’t help but threaten aloud, trying to seek a sliver of life.

"Our Bright Temple’s Azure Dragon War God is right outside in the void. Once he defeats that traitor You Ye, you just wait for death."

One Bright Temple expert shouted at Tianxie Emperor while resisting the attacks of the five supreme poisonous beasts.

Tianxie Emperor spread his hands. "Right now this is Chen Nan’s stage. You think threatening me is useful? Besides, for you to threaten this seat, this seat has to be willing to accept your threat. Azure Dragon War God? He’s battling You Ye. That You Ye was once one of your Bright Temple people. Back then, he and several Bright Temple brothers went to Dark Holy Temple to kill dark saints. In that battle, because of factional strife within Bright Temple, the intel they received was inaccurate, and they nearly got wiped out. You Ye hid Within the Sumeru Territory and escaped by sheer luck. After that, he betrayed Bright Temple, fought hundreds of battles big and small, and never lost. He walked from light into darkness, yet understands darkness even better—his potential is limitless."

Tianxie Emperor looked at these Bright Temple people trapped in the Five Poison Array like he was looking at idiots, blinking as he watched them.

"Azure Dragon War God said You Ye betrayed our Bright Temple because of a woman. He’s just a traitor, nothing more."

Although the six people of Bright Temple were all injured at this moment, they still refused to let others slander Bright Temple.

From childhood, the belief they’d built was to devote their entire lives selflessly to the Bright Main God.

In tens of thousands of years, Bright Temple had produced a single traitor—that man was called You Ye. Rumor had it that the real reason he betrayed the temple was because of a woman.

"A woman?"

This time Tianxie Emperor was a bit curious as well. "Don’t tell me she was a woman of my Heavenly People Clan?"

For tens of thousands of years, Bright Temple and Dark Holy Temple had spread their influence throughout the entire Outer Domain, and even some Small Worlds had their presence. In the Heavenly Person Realm there was a Nether River that never ran dry, and beside that Nether River there was a Dark Holy Temple. You Ye’s story started from that Dark Holy Temple.

Right now Chen Nan was inside the Five Poison Array, extremely carefree. He and Zhao Han had both just suffered grievous Shang; at this moment, Su Qingqing was using the Creation Jade Disc to continuously help them recover. In just a short while, everyone’s injuries had mostly healed.

"Senior Emperor of Evil, this time we really owe you. Without you coming to help, we’d probably have been wiped out."

Chen Nan had just recovered a bit, and immediately thanked Tianxie Emperor. No matter whose face Tianxie Emperor was giving, this favor, Chen Nan would remember.

"Heh heh, do you know why my cultivation goes through a Reincarnation every five hundred years? I’ll tell you the truth—this is a curse. However, that curse to me is the best way to keep someone engraved in my heart. Dieyi is the person I cherish most in this world. She likes you, so of course I’ll help you."

Tianxie Emperor laughed.

"She likes me? What a joke, she’d love nothing more than to kill me..." Chen Nan rolled his eyes. He muttered in his heart, but didn’t have the nerve to say it aloud. That kind of thing was better left as a private thought.

He hadn’t seen Su Dieyi for a while, and he actually kind of missed her, though he didn’t know why.

After all, they’d had skin-to-skin contact, and had once gone through life-and-death trials together.

"Heh heh."

Chen Nan forced a dry laugh, feeling even himself that he was being way too perfunctory.

"A curse? What kind of curse is it, that even Heavenly Position Strong People can’t erase it?"

Chen Nan was curious in his heart.

He now more or less understood. Su Dieyi was a freak. Her father Tianxie Emperor, with Little Heavenly Position strength, could beat down Middle Heavenly Position Peak experts—nothing strange about that at all.

Supreme Ninth Layer Heaven and Ten Layers of Heaven together were called the Supreme King. The three Great Realm stages of Star Rank were actually just Supreme Ninth Layer Heaven.

As for Supreme Tenth Layer, that was Heavenly Position. For Heavenly Position, Chen Nan currently knew of three small Great Realm stages. As for whether there was an even stronger Great Realm above Great Heavenly Position, he wasn’t sure yet. After all, all these years, since they couldn’t step into the Great World, many powerhouses had been unable to get Promotion to Domain Lord and might still be stuck in Heavenly Position Realm.

However, Heavenly Position in the Outer Domain was definitely a terrifyingly powerful existence. A curse that even Heavenly Position couldn’t erase...

"Thunk!"

Chen Nan suddenly remembered that Su Dieyi seemed to have mentioned that his mother was the Saintess of the Golden Butterfly Clan of Devil Sky Realm.

"Could it be..."

Chen Nan’s brows furrowed; a thought suddenly sprang up in his heart.

A curse that even Heavenly Position couldn’t undo could only have been cast by a Domain Lord-level expert. Even if the Golden Butterfly Clan’s Saintess lost all her cultivation after descending to the Lower Realm, if she wanted to curse a Supreme, she should still have some Magic Skills to do it.

Tianxie Emperor saw his expression and curled his lips into a smile. "Looks like you’re pretty smart—you’ve already guessed who put the curse on me. That’s right, it was Ah Heng, Dieyi’s mother. Back then, because of some matters, there were misunderstandings between us. In a fury, she leapt into the Nether River. Before she died, she cast a curse on me—every five hundred years, my cultivation would go through a Reincarnation. If I managed to survive the Reincarnation, my cultivation would greatly increase. If I died... then naturally, I’d just be dead."

"Dieyi grew up in Evil Palace since childhood. She’s always kept her mother’s matter in her heart, and has never talked about it with outsiders. The fact that she can open up to you shows that she really has fallen for you."

Tianxie Emperor said with a smile.

Seeing that his daughter finally had someone she liked, a faint sadness stirred in this father’s heart.

Still, this brat Chen Nan... was acceptable.

While Chen Nan and Tianxie Emperor were trading lines, the Bright Temple people and Wangtian City powerhouses within the Five Poison Array were all in a miserable state.

This Five Poison Array consumed Divine Power extremely fast. They had to resist the poisonous mist on one hand and the attacks of the five great poisonous beasts on the other—it was truly grueling.

Watching Chen Nan and Tianxie Emperor happily chatting away, these people were so furious they felt a sudden urge to self-detonate on the spot.

However, they had cultivated for thousands and tens of thousands of years—none of them were willing to give up easily.

"Look quick, Azure Dragon War God and You Ye seem to have separated. We’re saved!" One person from Bright Temple, gritting his teeth to hold on inside the Five Poison Array, finally saw the two great powerhouses in the void parting from each other.
