Chapter 749: From Capture to Kill
...
"Nirvana feigns death, golden cicada sheds its shell, impressive!"
After absorbing the divine ability left by the Phoenix, a gleam of sharp light flashed in Chen Huaian's eyes.
Even though his main body had already entered the Unity Realm, he truly didn't have many life-saving abilities.
If he had to say, encountering danger ant he could only dive into the Cangyun Realm, which was certainly a good option.
But it had two drawbacks.
First, entering the Cangyun Realm had a pre-cast ti like putting on a VR headset. So powerful enemies, like the Demon Immortal's avatar, might be able to kill him by exploiting that pre-cast window.
Second, entering the Cangyun Realm was only a temporary escape. He would erge from the sa place he entered.
If the enemy was still waiting outside when he ca out, he would still be in danger.
So in a sense, the divine ability bestowed by the Phoenix was also a tily rain.
"And there's the Phoenix Fire." Chen Huaian snapped his fingers, and a crimson fla instantly sprang up at his fingertips.
The color of this fla was deeper than ordinary fire. It moved docilely around Chen Huaian's fingertips, completely belying the terrifying high temperature capable of lting souls.
Used well, this thing was also a major killing weapon!
"That's about enough, ti to leave."
Thinking of the Demon Immortal's avatar still waiting outside, Chen Huaian couldn't help but curl the corner of his mouth into a cold sneer.
Waiting by the stump for a hare?
Ridiculous!
But before leaving, Chen Huaian still collected the pot and took a sip of the soup stewed from the Phoenix Egg.
"Ahhh—!" One sip down, and he shivered directly from the sheer pleasure: "Fresh! Damn fresh!"
As the number one Sword Master of the Cangyun Realm, he was soone who had eaten all kinds of exotic delicacies, but this was the first ti he had tasted such a fresh soup.
And this was just stewing the Phoenix's egg. If it were the real thing...
Forget it, better not think about it.
Let's see if he could encounter a Phoenix in other worlds later. Preferably, that Phoenix would breathe a mouthful of fire at him right away, giving him a reason to turn around and stew that Phoenix.
To taste a real roasted Phoenix.
Hehehe!
...
If it weren't for the wafts of fragrance continuously drifting from the Demon Sealing Pagoda, Chen Niu would have almost fallen asleep.
"The fragrance is gone." Chen Niu narrowed his eyes, perking up his spirits.
The earlier fragrance proved that the Sword Cultivator was indeed cooking inside the Demon Sealing Pagoda.
Now that the fragrance was gone, it ant this Sword Cultivator had finished eating.
What do you do after finishing eating? You definitely co out of the Demon Sealing Pagoda!
He tensed his nerves, standing ready in full battle array.
After a short while, there was suddenly movent at the entrance of the Demon Sealing Pagoda.
Chen Niu's gaze sharpened. The instant a white-robed figure appeared at the pagoda entrance, all the demonic power in his body surged violently towards the doorway.
Chen Niu possessed the divine ability to manipulate gravity.
His previous avatar's control over gravity was still superficial, but this avatar's control had touched the edge of the 'Dao'.
The air in front of the Demon Sealing Pagoda suddenly beca heavy, even space itself seeming to freeze.
With the Demon Sealing Pagoda as the center, gravity within a radius of one li sharply increased. The closer to the pagoda, the more pronounced the increase in gravity.
The edge of the gravity effect already saw a tenfold increase, while the entrance of the Demon Sealing Pagoda reached a thousandfold gravity.
BOOM—!
Even the sturdy Demon Sealing Pagoda couldn't withstand the oppression of thousandfold gravity.
The walls, built from so unknown material, groaned under the strain under the influence of the thousandfold gravity.
Visible cracks, like spiderwebs, instantly crawled across the entire door fra and the nearby ten-plus zhang of pagoda wall.
Fine gravel peeled off like dust, followed by larger chunks of rock cracking inward and collapsing under the terrifying pressure.
The entire Demon Sealing Pagoda trembled violently, as if about to be crushed flat by this force.
Yet even so, the Demon Sealing Pagoda still didn't completely collapse.
This place guarded the Well of Heaven. No matter how terrifying Chen Niu's divine ability was, it wasn't so easy to collapse.
But the ground at the entrance of the Demon Sealing Pagoda beca the disaster area.
The hard rocky ground seed to have been struck by an invisible ten-thousand-ton giant hamr.
There was no flying dust to be seen, because all matter was instantly pressed tightly towards the earth's core.
With the pagoda door as the center, the ground suddenly sank downward, forming a concave pit dozens of zhang deep with edges as smooth as a mirror.
At the bottom of the pit, the original rock was crushed and compacted under the imnse force, even showing a semi-molten state close to vitrification.
The air was evacuated and compressed, forming a brief, distorted ring of white air at the edge of the pit.
At this mont, even the air beca a lethal weapon.
Within the thousandfold gravity zone, air density was compressed to the extre, almost turning into a viscous liquid tal.
Any object attempting to enter or exist within this area would bear unimaginable pressure and friction.
Light twisted and refracted, everything sinking into blurriness, as if viewed through a layer of boiling oil.
Chen Huaian bore the brunt of it, right within this area.
As if trapped in amber, he couldn't move an inch the mont he stepped out of the Demon Sealing Pagoda.
Even after reaching the mid-stage of the Unity Realm, he still had a huge gap compared to Chen Niu's avatar.
When he felt that abyss-like terrifying demonic energy, he knew he was no match for Chen Niu's avatar.
Chen Huaian turned his head, staring intently at the massive figure pouncing over like a ferocious beast, a fierce light flashing in his eyes.
This avatar was clearly stronger than the previous one.
"Little thief! I've finally caught you!"
Chen Niu's wild laughter rang out like a death knell.
No way to avoid it!
No way to retreat!
A cold, sharp light erupted in Chen Huaian's eyes.
The True Essence around his body burned wildly, pouring entirely into the Black Scales Sword in his hand.
The sword, moved.
Clang—!
A sword cry resounded in all directions.
Even if he was no match, as a Sword Cultivator, he should still fight with all his might in slaughter.
In Chen Niu's eyes, Chen Huaian simply made an extrely simple, pure forward thrust.
But in Chen Huaian's hand.
That sword wasn't slashing at the air.
It was slashing at Chen Niu's divine ability.
Sword Intent entering the Dao, nothing it cannot slash.
The mont the sword tip touched the gravity, ti seed to freeze for an instant.
A line of silver-white light, condensed to the extre, as if capable of splitting chaos, suddenly erupted from the tip of the Black Scales Sword.
Sss—!
Like a scorching blade cutting through cold black silk.
The spatial gravity field that imprisoned everything was actually torn open by this silver-white line, creating a long, narrow gap.
The gap flashed and vanished, but it was a sliver of life.
The instant the gap appeared, Chen Huaian's figure, like a moth breaking free from a spiderweb, transford into a blurry afterimage and shot out explosively along that gap.
So fast that the space behind him was torn apart inch by inch.
"What?!" Chen Niu's huge vertical pupil suddenly contracted to a needle point.
This Sword Cultivator is terrifyingly formidable!
He could actually slash open its divine ability!
But clearly, the cultivation feedback this Sword Cultivator gave was only mid-stage Unity Realm!
The silver-white sword light flashed and vanished.
Chen Niu finally sensed within it the Sword Intent of the Dao's origin—this was definitely not sothing an ordinary Sword Cultivator could possess, let alone sothing an Ascender could possess.
Comprehension of the Dao had long been restricted by those lords of the Celestial God Clan.
re mortals were simply unworthy of comprehending the Dao.
Its earlier speculation wasn't wrong; this Sword Cultivator was also one of the variables.
This Sword Cultivator wants to run!
Can he run?
Shock instantly transford into furious rage.
"Little thief still wants to run?!" Chen Niu's massive body crushed space with a roar, giving relentless chase.
Demonic power surged wildly. The gravity field followed like a shadow, once again enveloping that fleeing white figure, intending to imprison it anew.
However, the Sword Cultivator's speed was astonishingly fast.
Whenever gravity was about to close in, a silver-white sword light would precisely tear open a weak point in the gravity field.
Like a fish breaking through a giant net, he escaped each ti in the nick of opportunity!
The more Chen Niu chased, the more alard it beca. The silver-white mask covering the Sword Cultivator's face was like an impenetrable layer of mist. No matter how much it concentrated its Divine Sense, it couldn't glimpse his true appearance at all. Capture alive? With this level of swordsmanship cultivation, this slippery movent technique, capturing alive was already a pipe dream.
Killing Intent instantly overwheld reason!
"Die!" The ghostly green demonic fire in Chen Niu's eyes completely transford into icy Killing Intent.
Anyway, the main body had already said in advance: if you can't capture, then kill.
It no longer cared whether gravity would crush the other to pieces.
It instantly compressed its Domain power to the limit, like an invisible giant hand, fiercely grabbing towards that fleeing white figure.
This ti, gravity condensed like a solid substance.
Speed surpassing sword light!
Thump!
Chen Huaian's forward-rushing figure suddenly stalled.
As if he had crashed into an invisible wall.
This invisible wall didn't exist in front of him, but pressed in from all directions.
Creak—! The bones throughout his body emitted a brittle sound of unbearable strain.
His sword-swinging motion was forcibly interrupted by the solidified gravity.
It was this montary stagnation.
Chen Niu's massive claw, covered in thick scales, already descended like a mountain blotting out the sky, carrying demonic power that could destroy everything, crashing down with a roar.
BOOM—!
The giant claw fell, accurately pressing down on that white figure.
Chen Niu's huge claw tightened violently.
Squelch—! Between its fingers, a crimson mist of blood, like crushed berries, quietly spread.
Several fragnts of the shattered silver-white mask, like withered butterfly wings, silently drifted down.
