Chapter 983: Chapter 981: Life and Death Mont (4 updates)
As long as the green hills remain, there’s no fear of lacking firewood to burn.
Su Chen is no fool.
He’s already fought with everything he has, going all out, but… the result is right in front of his eyes.
Who he is now cannot even begin to compare with the Blood God Robe.
If he doesn’t flee, is the alternative to wait to die?
Unyielding battle intent refers to clinging to even the slimst chance of victory while being fearless. Right now, staying any longer ans certain death, an act of irrationality—not bravery. Su Chen isn’t so foolish guy who’d stubbornly charge forth to his demise.
He still wants to live. He still has higher grounds to reach. He still has people to find—Wenren Nongyue, Lin Lanxin.
He must survive!!!
Moreover.
As long as he doesn’t die.
Given ti.
He can take his revenge.
He can defeat the Blood God Robe.
Without a doubt, all he’s lacking is ti, just as when he first encountered Li Ping—a pursuit that brought him to the brink of life and death. Yet, as long as he survived, what of Li Ping? In the end, didn’t he surpass her, even conquer her?
Huff…
Su Chen took a deep, steadying breath.
He activated every ounce of Mysterious Qi remaining!
Three Forces Transformation, converting them into liquid-like Mysterious Qi Flow, which surged toward his feet. His steps danced, the Traceless Movent Technique rippling, and he leapt out toward an arbitrary direction into the void.
Once he began his escape, Su Chen paid no heed to anything else. All that remained was a singularly burning thought: flee, flee, flee… charge, charge, charge.
He didn’t care about anything behind him!
anwhile, the Blood God Robe remained serene and composed. He had dealt with Soul Annihilation and Sky Fist in succession; now, what lay before him was Su Chen’s Sky Extinguishing Sword Light.
His gaze was deep and still, laced with an amused interest as he stared at the Sky Extinguishing Sword Light. The astonishnt in his eyes grew increasingly evident: “Dao Rhythm?!!! Unyielding Sword Rhy? Fascinating, such impressive talent.”
Even in an advanced plane like the Primordial Continent, few have comprehended Dao Rhythm.
Not even the Blood God Robe himself—he’s only faintly brushed against the threshold.
And what of Su Chen? A re twenty-four-year-old, just in the Fifth Level of the Ancestor Emperor Realm, had not only comprehended Dao Rhythm but reached a rather remarkable degree of mastery.
It was astonishing beyond imagination.
Such talent for martial cultivation simply defied description!
The killing intent within the Blood God Robe’s heart surged to its zenith.
His curiosity about Su Chen was boundless; his instincts whispered that if he could uncover Su Chen’s secrets, he might gain an enormous boon.
For the first ti in a long while, his usually unperturbed heart quivered with emotion.
Then.
The Blood God Robe raised his hand once more.
This ti, it wasn’t an extended palm nor an octagonal net of blood-colored radiance.
Instead, it was a single point of his finger.
That single point—silent and subtle.
The finger point emitted a minute blood-red dot that pulsated outward.
The blood-red dot swelled rapidly into a blood-colored sphere of Divine Charm Light with a diater spanning several ters!
The sphere, though blood-colored, was faint to the point of indescribable thinness—the traces of blood hue barely discernible.
Yet, its eeriness struck terror into onlookers’ hearts. That faint, blood-dripped sphere acted like swampy mire trapping prey. It instantly blocked the Sky Extinguishing Sword Light, wholly enveloping it.
As the Sword Light was encased, under the eyes of everyone watching… it began to corrode.
The exceedingly sharp, overwhelmingly strong, suprely resolute Sword Light was being eroded into void itself.
When the Sky Extinguishing Sword Light was corroded into nothingness, the Dark Oblivion Beam arrived.
But the Blood God Robe had already prepared.
This ti, he didn’t et it head-on but instead transford into a blood-red mist, vanishing.
The Dark Oblivion Beam lost its target, dissolving into the limitless Void.
After the Dark Oblivion Beam dissipated, the Blood God Robe reappeared.
The process was so sinister, suffocatingly macabre—if not witnessed firsthand, no one would dare to believe it.
The sequence where the Blood God Robe neutralized Su Chen’s four consecutive ultimate moves took less than a hundredth of a breath.
It seed elaborate.
Yet, to the Blood God Robe, it was swift to the extre, simple to the extre.
Only soone like the Blood God Robe could achieve such feats—others, like Heyue Nishang or Lan Hong Zhuang, could maybe stave off a single attack, and that would still require them risking their lives.
But the Blood God Robe neutralized all four strikes with such clarity, ease, and precision in a fraction of ti.
What kind of strength was this?
Utterly terrifying!!!
It was like a battle between an adult and a child.
The Blood God Robe’s strength was indescribably overwhelming.
“He’s fled quite far now.” When the Blood God Robe reappeared, he raised his head to glance in the direction Su Chen had fled.
He chuckled lightly.
Ever since he resolved to kill Su Chen, he had placed his aura on him, making it impossible for Su Chen to evade his pursuit, no matter how far he fled.
What’s more, Su Chen had only fled less than a fraction of a breath.
How far could he be?
Not very far. At this mont, Su Chen was approximately ten kiloters away from the Blood God Robe.
A fraction of a breath, yet ten kiloters away!? This speed was outrageous beyond words—likely Su Chen’s fastest in his lifeti.
But it was still not enough.
“Young boy Su, the Blood God Robe has dealt with your four strikes; he’s coming now.” Jiuyou suddenly shouted, panicking, utterly losing composure.
Su Chen, however, abruptly halted.
“Why have you stopped running?” Jiuyou was on the brink of madness.
Su Chen bit his lip, his face pale, while his eyes brimd with a crazed determination unlike anything Jiuyou had ever seen.
“Jiuyou, I can only die once.” Su Chen’s voice rasped.
“What do you an?” Jiuyou had an inkling.
“I can’t escape,” Su Chen said coldly. “If I want to survive, the only way is to be reborn after placing myself in death’s embrace.”
“And as long as your Divine Mansion remains intact, you cannot truly die. Are you saying you’re planning to die once in front of the Blood God Robe?” Jiuyou was beginning to understand. “But even if you die, the terrifying self-healing power inherent in your physique would quickly restore you. The Blood God Robe would be able to notice it.”
“No. As long as I die thoroughly enough. Without using the Temporal Heavenly Dao. It will still require so ti for to self-heal, and might even fail to heal completely. I’ll bet on this brief mont when the Blood God Robe might leave.” Su Chen’s voice grew even raspier: “I have no other choice, do I?”
His eyes were bloodshot, brimming with desperation.
Driven to the ultimate limits.
More hopeless even than the ti Li Ping pursued him to the brink of annihilation; this ti, he was utterly devoid of even the faintest glimr of hope!
“Dying once might be a solution. But what do you an by dying thoroughly enough?”
“Almost equivalent to complete self-destruction. Only by self-destructing will I qualify as thoroughly dead.” Su Chen muttered, “But I cannot self-destruct because self-destruction ans obliterating the Divine Mansion. If that happens, I would truly die—with no chance of remaining Undying and Indestructible. The only one who can execute this level of destruction is you, Jiuyou. You must ensure the thoroughness of my self-destruction while hiding the Divine Mansion. Jiuyou, it’s all up to you. Only you can control the degree of destruction—I trust you.”
“I… I understand.” Jiuyou fell silent for a few monts, agreeing. She knew they had been cornered to the absolute brink!!! No other option remained!
At this very instant.
The Blood God Robe erged, appearing no more than tens of ters away from Su Chen.
He remained calm, quiet, and even smiled slightly as he addressed Su Chen: “Why aren’t you running anymore?”
“Heh…” Su Chen stared fixedly at the Blood God Robe, a gaze filled with emotions the Blood God Robe couldn’t fully decipher—resolve, playfulness, anticipation—a suprely strange look.
This bizarre gaze was sothing the Blood God Robe had never encountered before; he couldn’t describe it, but he knew he’d rember it.
Then.
Without warning!!!
BOOM!!!
In the gaze of the Blood God Robe.
He exploded.
Su Ling exploded without any precursors, violently and suddenly.
In an instant, Su Chen’s entire body splintered, splitting apart.
Blood sprayed through the air, transforming into a blood mist.
An earth-shattering force erupted, shaking the heavens.
The ground beneath him turned into a massive crater.
BOOM BOOM BOOM…
The devastating shock force seed to shake the entire Heaven Earth Battle Tomb for a fleeting mont.
Hundreds of kiloters of surrounding space fell into obliteration, as if the Battle Tomb Plane itself teetered on the verge of becoming nothingness.
The extremity of self-destructive power swept across everything, shocking everywhere with blood-red devastation.
Even the Blood God Robe, standing too close to the blast and overwheld by its insane force, found his lips bloodied and face pale—he was injured.
Self-destruction!!!
Su Chen truly self-destructed.
“Damn it…” Far away, the Blood God Robe’s face darkened, almost dripping with water, a visage of unparalleled bitterness.
He could never have anticipated that Su Chen would suddenly self-destruct like this.
No prior warning.
No indication whatsoever.
Simply self-destruction.
How was this possible? He couldn’t wrap his mind around it.
But it was real—Su Chen had self-destructed, an unquestionable fact borne of undeniable evidence. The Blood God Robe had the discernnt to tell as much.
If it were a false self-destruction, it couldn’t have exhibited such breathtaking magnitude, causing injury to even him.
Moreover, the entire world seed to lose Su Chen’s aura completely—a total absence of his presence. Nothing could achieve this except self-destruction.
Furthermore, even his Divine Soul vanished—what else could this be but self-destruction?
“Shit!!!” The Blood God Robe burst into a vulgar curse, trembling with rage.
Miscalculation.
A complete miscalculation.
He had a hunch that Su Chen’s self-destruction deprived him of an imnse opportunity.
Now, before him, several thousand ters away was a colossal crater, plumting over a kiloter deep.
At the bottom of the pit, buried beneath layers of dust, was a cluster of bloodied flesh—its core cradled the Divine Mansion.
The Blood God Robe didn’t notice.
Why would he? That bloodied flesh was utterly silent, and combined with his assumption that Su Chen had wholly self-destructed into nothingness, why would he consider checking further?
Within the Divine Mansion, Jiuyou was praying furiously: “Leave! Leave!! Leave!!!”
She was an anxious wreck.
For the first ti in her life, she was overwheld by such urgency.
Because if the Blood God Robe lingered, the bloodied flesh would soon rebound with life—furiously regenerating. And then the Blood God Robe would surely realize.
Ti pressed cruelly against them.
A genuine life-and-death scenario.
In the next breath.
Sowhere distant.
Far away.
The Blood God Robe murmured suddenly to himself, “It seems I’ll have to seek out the Divine Demon Emperor Tomb. Hopefully, I can find it soon enough.”
Why was he here within the Heaven Earth Battle Tomb? Soone like him shouldn’t be in such a location.
There was a reason.
The Blood God Robe had co for the legendary Divine Demon Emperor Tomb.
Su Chen was an accident.
If he could gain sothing significant from that accident, all the better. While lanting the lost opportunity, he could accept the outco. After all, the Divine Demon Emperor awaited—the ultimate feast of legends; he couldn’t afford to lose sight of it.
With that, the Blood God Robe disappeared.
In that instant, Jiuyou nearly collapsed within the Divine Mansion.
He was gone—the Blood God Robe had left.
But his departing remarks burned into her mory.
Divine Demon Emperor Tomb!!!
Was there truly a Divine Demon Emperor Tomb within the Heaven Earth Battle Tomb?
[Two chapters delivered, and the story continues tomorrow. Ah, ah, ah, requesting recomndation votes. The fourth chapter is a bit longer, which took more ti to write. It’s almost 2 a.m., but finally updated, hahaha…]
