Chapter 508: Chapter 228: Continuous Breakthroughs! Annihilating the Taboo Figure

This was especially true for Chu Shanhe.

He had lost count of how many times Chen Xuan had shocked him.

But in this moment, he was once again, inevitably, aghast.

’Has Chen Xuan... reached the level of the Forbidden Domain?’

That Stone Man was at the Half-Step Grotto Heaven Realm!

And it was an Innate Stone that had attained the Dao.

The strength of its physical body was immeasurable.

’To be suppressed and beaten by Chen Xuan?’

’This is just too ridiculous!’

"Alliance Leader Chu, City Lord Xue, are you two alright?"

The Nine Heavens Elder quickly approached and asked.

"What’s going on with Chen Xuan?"

Xue Wanchuan asked in shock.

"I don’t know either. I was being hunted by that woman when I ran into Young Hero Chen halfway through my escape. By then, Young Hero Chen... was already this absurdly powerful..."

The Nine Heavens Elder’s face was filled with awe as he looked ahead.

’It’s just too unbelievable!’

’So ferocious!’

’I wish I could follow a figure like this day and night.’

’If I could stay by Chen Xuan’s side, it’d be hard *not* to soar to new heights in the future.’

"What?"

Xue Wanchuan’s face was a mask of disbelief.

Chen Xuan had only gone out to post some blood talismans.

’And he came back this terrifying?’

If they weren’t seeing it with their own eyes, who would ever believe it?

CRACK!

Chen Xuan landed another heavy slap across the Stone Man’s face, causing its cheek to explode. Stone fragments and purplish-red blood flew everywhere.

Seizing the opportunity, Chen Xuan grabbed the top of its head—like grabbing a grandson by the scruff—and dragged it close. He then proceeded to furiously slap its face with his massive palm.

Every slap carried immense force.

Every slap was unbelievable.

The force of the slaps even tore cracks in space itself.

SLAP! SLAP! SLAP! SLAP! SLAP...

A series of terrifying, explosive sounds rang out, deafeningly loud.

The Stone Man’s entire face was constantly twisting and cracking apart.

Even with its so-called indestructible body, it was utterly unable to resist at this moment.

It could only feel a sharp, stabbing pain radiating from its face—a pain that cut deep into its bones and pierced its very soul.

But even worse than the intense pain...

...was the humiliation it found even more unbearable.

’I am a mighty Forbidden figure, yet I’m being treated like this?’

’How is this any different from a common street brawl!’

"Enough! Sacred Hall of Sacrifice, open for me!"

The ochre Stone Man roared, its humiliation pushed to the absolute limit. It suddenly seemed to unleash some kind of Forbidden Technique, and an extremely bizarre and terrifying aura erupted from its body.

BOOM! The blast of aura knocked Chen Xuan’s hand away and sent his massive body staggering backward.

The Stone Man seized the opportunity to retreat rapidly. Its face was a mangled, bloody mess, so twisted it looked like it had been carved up by a giant axe, barely resembling a face at all.

A sinister, cold aura emanated from its body, and its eyes blazed with furious flames.

In the instant it retreated, a colossal black stone hall appeared above its head.

The stone hall looked like a phantom, hazy and indistinct. It exuded a demonic energy and a dense aura of death. The hall’s doors slowly creaked open, revealing an endless, bottomless darkness within.

It seemed to possess a power that could devour a person’s very soul.

"Chen Xuan, you’ve had your fun hitting me for a while, haven’t you?"

The ochre Stone Man’s tone was ice-cold, its entire body wreathed in a thick aura of death. "Now, it’s my turn!"

"Your turn?"

Chen Xuan flexed his hand and sneered. "Your turn for what? Your turn to come over here and let me hit you some more? You haven’t had enough of a beating yet? I have to say, your face is certainly thick. Even after all that, I still couldn’t completely smash it in. You’ve really exceeded my expectations!"

"You’re courting death!"

Icy fury flared in the ochre giant’s eyes. "Do you really think I can’t do anything to you? I have my own ways to destroy you!"

"Then come and try it, trash. Once trash, always trash. As long as I’m here, you are destined to never hold your head high again."

Chen Xuan continued to sneer.

’Stalling for time, are we?’

’Bring it on!’

’Let’s see who’s more afraid!’

In his Heaven and Earth state, the power he was accumulating was destined to become even more terrifying.

No matter what tricks it had, he could shatter them with a single punch!

A cold glint appeared deep in the ochre giant’s eyes, its killing intent surging. It suddenly let out a furious roar. "Supreme ancient sacrificial hall, heed my call! Descend, holy spirit, and merge with me!"

BOOM!

Suddenly, the black stone hall above its head began to shake violently, erupting with an even more sinister and bizarre aura.

One after another, spectral figures flew out from the black stone hall. Carrying an eerie, unfathomable power, they swiftly drilled into its body, causing its injured form to rapidly heal.

Its original ochre glow was now rapidly turning pitch-black.

It was as if it were being stained with ink.

In just the blink of an eye.

Its entire body had transformed from its original ochre color to a jet-black hue, as if it had become a black iron giant. Its aura surged upward like a roaring tsunami.

But that wasn’t all!

Its body also began to shake violently.

As it shook, something like rust began to flake off its body.

Layers of filthy, foul, and corrosive patches fell from it in ever-increasing numbers, growing denser and denser until they blotted out the sky like a black whirlwind.

It suddenly burst into laughter, its booming voice shaking the heavens and the earth.

"Chen Xuan, you little brat, go to hell!"

RUMBLE!

Its body shook even faster.

An even denser storm of rust began to surge toward Chen Xuan.

Every single flake seemed to carry an endless curse, terrifying enough to shatter one’s soul. To be touched by it meant aging, sickness, and death—the five signs of decay—followed by the depletion of one’s True Qi and the withering of one’s physical body.
