Gate of God

When some people die, they would want to take others down with them. Shi Fan was unable to drag Fang Zhengzhi down with him but he could the last bit of energy he had to release the seal on Yan Xiu.

This was because he felt that the evil energy coming from Yan Xiu did not even belong to this world.

If they could not die together, he should at least try to injure both of them!

“Open!” Shi Fan shouted one last time. At the same time, an extremely complicated diagram appeared on his palm. It was a diagram of Hell.

At this moment, Shi Fan’s eyes were filled with blood. It was as if he used all his energy and channeled them onto this diagram.

As this diagram appeared, a huge attractive force surged forth from his palm, drawing all of Yan Xiu’s internal energy out.

“What?!” Second Elder sensed that something was amiss but he was evidently too late. This was because a huge energy had already rushed out.

“Boom!” A huge explosion.

A vast and evil energy surged out from Yan Xiu’s body like a tsunami. Then, the sound of something shattering could be heard.

At the same time, a powerful force hit Shi Fan’s arm, completely shattering his palm. This made his body fly away into the distance.

Shi Fan was not the only victim. Second Elder and Fang Zhengzhi, who stood next to Yan Xiu, could not dodge this force too. They too were sent flying.

“Thud!” With that sound, Shi Fan’s body landed heavily in the distance. He spat out a mouthful of blood as his withered body curled up on the ground.

However, Shi Fan was delirious with joy. He laughed because he was overjoyed. He had already seen the energy that came from Yan Xiu’s body. “Fallen Asura? Hahaha… so it’s a Fallen Asura!”

“Boom!” The ground around Yan Xiu started to crack down. An aura which was like a razor-sharp black claw surged forth crazily.

It was an aura from Hell.

Powerful and evil.

At the same time, Yan Xiu slowly started to stand up. His eyes turned black, completely jet-black. There were no red or white in his eyes, which now resembled a canyon from Hell.

“Ah!” Yan Xiu roared. At the same time, the bones in his body cracked non-stop.

“Crack, crack….”

This scene was utterly terrifying. Furthermore, as black energy continued to surge forth from his body, a huge suppressive energy could be felt.

“Yan Xiu!” Fang Zhengzhi never expected Yan Xiu to unleash his seal at this time. After all, the battle had more or less ended.

No, that was wrong!

It was not Yan Xiu!

It was Shi Fan!

Fang Zhengzhi looked at Shi Fan, who returned his gaze. On Shi Fan’s face, Fang Zhengzhi saw a cruel smile.

“Keke… Fang Zhengzhi, what are you going to do now?!” Shi Fan’s voice brimmed with a pre-death happiness. This was because he knew that after Yan Xiu’s seal had been unleashed, he would turn into a Fallen Asura, a killing machine with no restraint.

“Die, Shi Fan!” Fang Zhengzhi moved once more. A powerful killing aura surged from his body. Even though his shoulder bled, his anger made him as fast as a bolt of lightning. He slashed Shi Fan with his Traceless Sword.

Purple light shone from the sword.

“Boom!” A huge explosion.

Shi Fan’s body was instantly cut in two. However, on Shi Fan’s face, a cruel smile lingered.

The moment Shi Fan died, Yan Xiu started to slowly lift his two arms. Then, he clenched his once-limp hand tightly and formed a fist.

Complete recovery!

“Kill!” He bellowed.

Countless rays of black aura gathered around Yan Xiu. They were akin to black claws as they surrounded his body.

“Yan Xiu!” When Yan Qianli saw this scene, his face changed instantly. He knew the significance of a Fallen Asura. It was exactly because he knew what it entailed which made him so panicky.

However, Yan Xiu’s current form was irreversible.

Yan Xiu, who had cursed his own helplessness, craved power way too much. This desire made him lose his control over the Fallen Asura inside him.

“Boom!” Black clouds rose from underneath Yan Xiu’s feet. The entire sky dimmed as if it had been shrouded by a dark cloud.

Then, he moved.

Without a moment’s hesitation, he rushed straight for Second Elder. A silvery blood-red fan appeared in his hands and the black energy which surrounded his body brimmed with a murderous and evil aura.

This made Second Elder’s face change. Evidently, Second Elder never expected things to go this way.

More importantly, Yan Xiu had become a true Fallen Asura. It was more complete than his transformation one month ago at the Heaven Academic Altar.

Under this situation…

Even if Chi Guyan was present, it was impossible for him to continue suppressing it because Yan Xiu had turned completely into a Fallen Asura.

He could only kill!

“Since he had already become a true Fallen Asura, we can’t keep him!” Second Elder gripped his sword tightly. His body shone with a bright golden light. At the same time, a shadow, which looked like a huge golden bell, appeared on his body. On the huge golden bell, there were nine other golden swords.

“Rise, swords!” Second Elder said.

The nine swords on the golden bell appeared to come alive. They flew out from the top of the golden bell and they circled around him.

As the Second Elder of the Heaven Dao Pavilion and an absolute powerhouse in the Holy Region, Second Elder’s true strength surpassed Yuan Rong’s completely.

When the nine golden swords flew out, a powerful aura rose around Second Elder. The entire space trembled.

“Don’t even think of hurting my grandson!” Yan Qianli’s face was ashen. He had not yet recovered from that blow just now but he rushed toward Second Elder as fast as he could.

A blood-red light enveloped him.

“Yan Qianli, don’t be stubborn. Yan Xiu had turned from a Fallen Asura to an Evil Asura, no one can save him!” When Second Elder saw Yan Qianli rushing over, he naturally did not hesitate. He rushed forward to intercept him. He pointed at him with the golden sword in his hand and nine other golden swords flew toward Yan Xiu. “Kill!”

“Boom boom boom…” A series of explosions rang out.

As the nine golden swords sliced and diced, dust rose from the ground. The cracked ground split open completely and black aura started to rise. In the black aura, nine golden swords continued to dance about.

One could see that the nine golden swords possessed an absolute advantage.

However, the black aura was not completely suppressed. In contrast, it turned even thicker as more and more of it rose from the ground.

Second Elder started to sweat.

Fallen Asura was a puppet completely controlled by an Evil Asura. Its power and level could not be described directly because he represented an Asura.

Golden light flashed and black aura spread.

At this moment, Yan Qianli appeared in front of Second Elder. Naturally, he could not just watch as he killed Yan Xiu, even if he had become a Fallen Asura.

After all, that was his grandson!

Without any hesitation, Yan Qianli clenched his fist tightly and punched out. A blood-red light enveloped his fist and turned it into a spike.

“No matter how strong you are, if you aren’t fast enough, it’s useless!” Second Elder was not surprised by Yan Qianli’s arrival. He body moved to the side and he reached out with his hand, grabbing onto Yan Qianli’s shoulder, and said, “Bell Descent!”

With his bellow, the golden bell around his body started to move. It completely enveloped Yan Qianli inside.

“Kaboom!” A huge sound rang out and Yan Qianli’s body fell heavily on the ground. He was covered by a huge golden bell and there was no way he could escape.

When the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples saw this scene, they could not help but exclaim emotionally.

“Second Elder is powerful indeed!”

“That’s for sure. Second Elder’s ancient bell is legendary. It can attack and defend. Even 50 Yan Qianlis can’t do anything to him!”

“Kill! For Second Elder! For the dignity of the Heaven Dao Pavilion!”

The Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples, who had been forced back by the Shadow Sect disciples, became excited as if they had taken stimulants. This was because the true determinant of this battle was the strength of the powerful cultivators.

As long as Second Elder could suppress Yan Qianli and Fang Zhengzhi, they would not be at a disadvantage for long. The Heaven Dao Pavilion would eventually still triumph.

“Pfft!” The sound of a sword entering a body. A Shadow Sect disciple fell onto the ground. Underneath his feet, blood was everywhere.

The strength of Fourth Elder and Sixth Elder could not be matched by just a few dozen Shadow Sect disciples. As time passed, more and more Shadow Sect disciples fell onto the ground.

“No, we can’t hold out anymore!” The Heavenly Oasis Saint was panicky. His original plan was to delay them for half a joss stick to one joss stick’s worth of time.

However, what happened right now?

The time had long since passed.

Yuan Rong and the rest died at hands of Fang Zhengzhi. However, Yan Xiu’s sudden transformation prevented him from escaping right away.

Could he still escape?

If he could not, this battle would turn vicious.

The Heavenly Oasis Saint knew that even though the Shadow Sect had become more powerful, they would incur heavy casualties if they continued to fight with the Heaven Dao Pavilion.

Importantly, this was the Heaven Dao Pavilion’s territory.

No one knew if this commotion would attract the attention of the other disciples from the Heaven Dao Pavilion. If a few more elders came, there was no way they could escape anymore.

“Take Yan Xiu away!” The Heavenly Oasis Saint knew that the longer the battle went on, the more disadvantageous it would be for the Shadow Sect. Hence, all he could do was to escape as fast as possible.

However, this was hardly the case in real life.

How could Yan Xiu, in his current state, be taken away so easily?

Yan Qianli knew what the Heavenly Oasis Saint was thinking. In fact, he wanted to bring Yan Xiu away too, but how?

He was already trapped.

Even if he was not trapped, the only way to bring Yan Xiu back after he had lost his rationality was to defeat him.

“Sixth brother, I’ll hand this over to you. I’m going to help second brother!” Fourth Elder noticed that the Heavenly Oasis Saint was contemplating escape. He exited the battle and flew over to where Second Elder was.

“Don’t even think of escaping!” The Heavenly Oasis Saint panicked as he tried to block him.

However, Sixth Elder stood in front of him. His sword shone with a cold light and his face was cold.

“Your opponent is me!” Sixth Elder’s voice was calm. However, today’s battle could not be reversed, the only thing he could do was to keep fighting.

“Fourth brother, I’ll take care of Yan Xiu and Yan Qianli, you take care of Fang Zhengzhi!” When Second Elder saw Fourth Elder coming over, he knew that the outcome of the battle was set.

This was because when Fourth Elder joined the fray, neither Fang Zhengzhi nor Yan Qianli could escape. The reason was simple: they could not bring Yan Xiu away.

As long as Yan Xiu remained here, none of them could escape.

“Okay!” When Fourth Elder heard Second Elder’s words, he understood what he wanted. He turned around and rushed toward Fang Zhengzhi.

Then, at this moment, razor-sharp black claws emerged from underneath Fourth Elder’s leg, grabbing him instantly.

“Boom!” A huge explosion.

Fourth Elder landed heavily on the ground. At the same time, another black claw reached out and made its way toward his throat.

“What a Fallen Asura!” When Second Elder saw Fourth Elder, who was trapped, it was impossible for him not to be surprised.

After all, he had completely suppressed Yan Xiu.

Even so, Yan Xiu could still block Fourth Elder. This was something inconceivable to reason.

It seemed to be a subconscious gesture.

“Friend? So this is what ‘friend’ means?” A voice rang out at his moment. Then, an ink-green shadow appeared in front of Fourth Elder. His sharp gaze looked at the black claw on the ground. His expression seemed resolute.

“Yan Qing, what are you doing? Scram!” When Fourth Elder looked at Yan Qing, who had appeared in front of him, his eyes shone brightly.

Then, before he even finished his sentence, Yan Qing’s fist was already before him. He punched out so quickly and without any hesitation.

“Boom!”

His fist landed on Fourth Elder’s face. At the same time, a voice rang out next to him, “I want friends too!”
