Capítulo 1287: Chapter 1272: Blood-Red Fireworks
A delicately crafted small black square shield at the level of a Suppressing Device stood in front of Weie Yu’s forehead just before the Blood Shadow struck him.
Bang!
Sparks flew in all directions!
The black square shield emitted a mournful cry as it was directly smashed against Weie Yu’s forehead by the Blood Shadow, causing blood to flow profusely from his face.
The Demon Marshal’s Avatar, having succeeded in the sneak attack, stepped forward with large strides and struck Weie Yu’s forehead with a hundred continuous blows.
Poor Weie Yu, a terrifying existence of the Dark Palace Realm, was first caught off guard by Ye Zhen’s Soul Refining Divine Light, causing a Divine Soul Shock.
Then, he was crushed by Ye Zhen’s Demon Marshal’s Avatar, equipped with a complete set of High Grade Demon Suppressing Devices, in a relentless style of slashing.
After being struck more than a hundred tis, Weie Yu still hadn’t recovered his strength.
This result left Ye Zhen extrely astonished.
It should be known that ever since leaving the Ancient Demon God Temple, Ye Zhen’s Divine Soul Power had soared wildly to the Ninth Stage of Innate Soul Light, just a bit away from the Peak of Innate Soul Light Ninth Stage.
Moreover, it was the Four-colored Innate Soul Light!
Divine Soul Power is a skill that requires slow cultivation; due to the rapid cultivation speed of martial artists on the Primordial Continent, most martial artists’ Divine Soul Power is quite ordinary.
But Ye Zhen’s explosive increase in Divine Soul Power only caused a slight Divine Soul Shock to Weie Yu.
As for the Demon Marshal’s Avatar, on the day before leaving the Ancient Demon God Temple, after devouring endless Military Soul Blood Qi in battles, its cultivation had successfully advanced to the Peak Ninth Stage of the Divine Communication Realm.
The Demon Marshal’s Avatar, whose cultivation had reached the Peak of Ninth Stage of Divine Communication Realm, equipped with a set of High Grade Suppressing Devices, unleashed over a hundred blows, yet it couldn’t even severely injure, let alone slay Weie Yu, only causing him minor injuries.
Ye Zhen’s shock was imaginable; Weie Yu indeed was terrifying.
However, Ye Zhen’s goal today was not to seriously injure or heavily damage Weie Yu; that possibility was too small.
Ye Zhen’s goal was to seize the corpse of the just-slain Kui Niu.
In the ti it took for the Demon Marshal’s Avatar to strike over a hundred tis, it was just a few breaths of ti.
In a few breaths, it was more than enough for Ye Zhen to collect Kui Niu’s corpse dozens of tis.
With just a flicker of his figure, Kui Niu’s still warm and blood-spattering corpse was tucked into Ye Zhen’s storage ring.
Seeing this, the Grand Spirit Master Weie Yu, having just caught his breath, was nearly driven mad.
“Bastard, how dare a re Demon Soul snatch the prize, courting death!” With a roar, Grand Spirit Master Weie Yu spread his arms, summoning countless thunders from the sky to strike Ye Zhen’s Demon Marshal’s Avatar.
Weie Yu, one of the Great Spirit Masters of the Heavenly Temple Thunder Hall, was renowned for his Thunder Elent Abilities and Divine Skills. Facing Kui Niu, an Ancient Divine Beast naturally controlling thunder, he couldn’t exert much combat power and had to rely on Formations and high-destructive military armants for attacks.
But now that Kui Niu was dead, Grand Spirit Master Weie Yu had no reservations. The dense Thunderclouds lingering in the sky were his best allies.
But to Weie Yu’s dismay, just as he summoned countless terrifying thunders to strike down on the assaulter Demon Soul, it disappeared into thin air with a flash of brilliance.
Just vanished into thin air!
This was Ye Zhen, hiding nearby, realizing the unfavorable situation, quickly retracting the Demon Marshal’s Avatar back into his own body.
The Demon Marshal’s Avatar was purely ford from Military Soul Blood Qi, infinitely more resistant to thunder than the Blood Demons Ye Zhen encountered earlier. However, thunder still posed considerable harm to the Demon Marshal’s Avatar.
So Ye Zhen unhesitatingly retracted the Demon Marshal’s Avatar, and at the instant of retraction, Ye Zhen swiftly fled towards the underground.
Gazing at the now empty lake, the vanished assailant, and the disappeared corpse of Kui Niu that he labored so hard to slay, Grand Spirit Master Weie Yu let out an enraged roar, “Lock the Heavens and Earth with Ten Thousand Souls, seal!”
Instantly, blood-colored chains shattered by three hundred Sky-Breaking Dragon-Slaying Crossbows re-erged from the blood-colored Grand Formation surrounding the lake.
But this ti, a total of six hundred and forty thousand blood-colored chains erged.
These six hundred and forty thousand blood-colored chains rushed into the sky, onto the ground, in all directions, wishing to seal a hundred miles of heaven and earth.
The five hundred Spirit Masters controlling the Formation scread in agony, as countless Spirit Stones poured in, the Formation rapidly drew all forces out of their bodies to sustain the massive consumption needed for the seal.
Their flesh withered visibly, instantly turning into skin-covered skeletons.
Just as the six hundred and forty thousand blood-colored chains were about to seal this expanse, on the base of the bizarre Grand Formation laid around the lake, at least ten major Formation nodes erupted with blinding Talisman Light.
At each Formation node, thousands of Demon-Annihilating Sunfire Talismans had been stacked together to explode.
What was even more insane, Ye Zhen, fearing the nodes wouldn’t break, stacked ten thousand Fire Yang Demon Talismans together at three of the nodes.
These Demon-Annihilating Sunfire Talismans were acquired by Ye Zhen from the Royal Palace Treasure Vault of Xitian County. Their power wasn’t originally imnse; each one equated to the full-force strike of a Peak Ninth Stage Establishnt Martial Artist.
However, when a thousand, even ten thousand Demon-Annihilating Sunfire Talismans were stacked together, their combined power was indescribably terrifying.
The formation node where a thousand such talismans exploded was sowhat manageable, rely shattering that particular formation node. But the spots where over ten thousand talismans detonated erupted into a mushroom cloud a hundred ters wide.
Within a hundred-ter radius, the formation’s base and its pattern were completely shattered, blasting a hundred-ter-wide crater into the ground, and even the Spirit Master within that range turned to ash.
The Little Demon remotely controlling this spectacle witnessed it and, sticking out its tongue in surprise, burrowed into the ground and vanished.
The Little Demon had departed, but the nightmare for the Grand Spirit Master Weie Yu was just beginning.
With parts of the strange grand formation’s base destroyed and several critical formation nodes obliterated, the formation beca uncontrollable.
The imnse energy just summoned and refined into six hundred forty thousand blood-colored chains suddenly backfired.
In an instant, the five hundred Spirit Masters, just reduced to skin and bones, suddenly swelled like balloons.
At their breaking point, they exploded into mists of blood with a loud bang.
Indescribable blood Qi backflooded into the grand formation. Sixty to seventy thousand wailing souls, carrying their blood Qi, rampaged into the formation, causing it to explode in a sun-like blood-red brilliance.
Grand Spirit Master Weie Yu stood stunned, then frantically scread at the numbed Marquis Anling Ji Jia, “Run! The formation’s backlash is coming! It’s going to blow! Get out now!”
Screaming, Grand Spirit Master Weie Yu transford into a streak of light, rushing straight toward Marquis Anling Ji Jia.
Marquis Anling Ji Jia must not die, and if he must, not here, not at this mont he initiated.
Otherwise, the years of effort spent by those in the Thunder Hall would be for nothing.
The next mont, the terrifying blood-red brilliance engulfed the entire lake, swallowing Ji Jia and his entourage.
Grand Spirit Master Weie Yu roared in anger, his voice as piercing as a night ape’s shriek.
The blood-red brilliance covering the lake flickered a few tis before slowly dissipating.
Marquis Anling Ji Jia stood dumbfounded by the scene of total upheaval before him.
re monts ago, Kui Niu was about to be slain, and everything seed to be progressing beautifully, but in just a few breaths, everything beca unimaginable.
The lake had been completely leveled. The five hundred Spirit Masters brought by Grand Spirit Master Weie Yu were obliterated, as were the three thousand Thunderclap Sacred Guards directly under Weie Yu, along with the three hundred Sky-Breaking Dragon-Slaying Crossbows that took Marquis Anling Ji Jia so much effort to gather.
“The Marquis is unhard… so this old slave can die… at peace…”
The last breath of a eunuch pulled Ji Jia back to reality. At that mont, Ji Jia looked down to see a eunuch, with only a head and half a body left, slowly sliding off him, closing his eyes, with even a slight smile on his lips.
Ji Jia imdiately recalled the mont when the grand formation exploded.
The eighteen eunuchs he had brought, each with cultivation around the Middle Late Stage of the Divine Communication Realm, in that instant, had huddled together to protect him, shielding him with their bodies from the formation’s backlash!
Wiping the blood and flesh from his face, Marquis Anling Ji Jia suddenly scread hysterically, “Who is it? Get out here! I’ll annihilate your entire clan!”
Screaming, Marquis Anling’s body began to tremble uncontrollably, with warmth spreading from his pants, fueling his anger even more.
He wasn’t angry about the death of those eighteen eunuchs; to these Princes, the eighteen eunuchs were less significant than his dogs. Dead was dead, and he felt no sorrow.
His anger was because he had been but a step away from death.
As a Heavenly Royal, with royal blood, he almost died. How could he not be enraged?
Watching the unscathed Marquis Anling Ji Jia, Grand Spirit Master Weie Yu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and sighed in relief.
The next instant, seeing the complete disappearance of his five hundred Spirit Masters and three thousand Thunderclap Sacred Guards below, his heart ached fiercely. Tightening his throat, he spat out a mouthful of bloody sweetness.
Those five hundred Spirit Masters and three thousand Thunderclap Sacred Guards were under Weie Yu’s direct command in the Heavenly Temple, his painstaking accumulation over the years.
But now, they had vanished in a single mont of blood-red fireworks.
The thunderclouds in the sky, influenced by Weie Yu’s emotions, started to thunderously blast, indicating the extent of Weie Yu’s fury.
But in the next mont, recalling the true purpose of his mission, Weie Yu shouted suddenly. As if coming to his senses, he urgently dashed toward Kui Niu Mountain Cave.
As long as he retrieved the treasure inside, today’s loss would be worth it!
In the future, it could be regained tenfold, a hundredfold!
