Chapter 2135 - Yan Wushen’s Arrival
Chapter 2135: Yan Wushen’s Arrival
The Hadean Furnace contained boundless Hadean Curses. It was intensely evil. Since ancient times, it had harvested countless souls and this made it even more terrifying.
Even the Netherkin cultivators didn’t dare use the Hadean Furnace rashly. They were afraid of an unpredictable disaster.
This weapon had become a taboo weapon of the Nether Clan.
Both Nether Demon and Nether Buddha had taken the risk to bring the Hadean Furnace into Kunlun Realm. They had made up their minds to get rid of Zhang Ruochen and save the reputation of the Nether Clan. At the same time, they would eliminate a huge threat to the Infernal Court.
AH!
Some cultivators were caught by the invisible curse that entered their bodies, and they screamed in pain.
Their skin turned gray-black in the blink of an eye. Their expressions became ferocious, and there was only despair in their eyes.
Zhang Ruochen, who was the main target of the attack, was in an even worse situation. He was completely submerged by the Power of Curse.
The Power of Curse was too terrifying. It could even erode space. There seemed to be no way to resist it.
The Canon of Truth was activated. Blazing flames rose as the Armor of the Fire God was activated.
At the same time, Zhang Ruochen released the Emperor-level Divine Purification Flame. It combined with the flame of the Armor of the Fire God and covered his entire body.
As soon as the Power of Curse came into contact with the flame, it sizzled, turned into wisps of black smoke, and then disappeared without a trace.
Fortunately, the Divine Purification Flame has transformed into the Emperor-level flame. Otherwise, it would be difficult to deal with the Curse power from the ancient times,’ Zhang Ruochen thought.
The Divine Purification Flame represents purification and annihilation. It is the best way to deal with the Power of Curse.
ROAR!
Suddenly, a deafening beast roar sounded.
A ferocious and terrifying behemoth broke free from the Hadean Furnace. Its body was branded with many complicated Curse runes. As soon as it appeared, it emitted all sorts of auras: bizarre, ominous, fearful, destructive, resentful, and other negative auras.
“It’s a Cursed Wraith created by harvesting countless souls… hiss…”
Many cultivators couldn’t help but gasp, and even their Saint Souls trembled.
The Cursed Wraith was like a giant centipede. It had over 10,000 legs, and they were all different in shape. Some looked like human legs, some looked like beast legs, and some looked like sharp claws. It seemed to be pieced together by countless creatures, and it gave people a terrifying feeling.
Anyone could clearly feel the strong resentment from the Cursed Wraith. It felt like even if they poured all the water from the Celestial River, they wouldn’t be able to wash it clean.
The Cursed Wraith’s body was dozens of miles long.
After breaking free from the Hadean Furnace, it pounced directly at Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen’s eyes narrowed. He stretched out a hand and activated the 680,000 Precepts of Dimension in his body pressed forward suddenly.
With Zhang Ruochen’s current dimensional attainments, even if the Hadean Furnace froze dimension, it wouldn’t be able to completely restrict him.
BANG!
The space within a 3,000-meter radius shattered in an instant, revealing a large area of the dark void. It was like a black hole.
The Cursed Wraith was obstructed and flew backward. Its huge body was directly broken into dozens of pieces.
However, in the next moment, the Cursed Wraith’s body was pieced together again. Not the slightest damage. Instead, the aura it emitted became even more terrifying.
Once again, the Cursed Wraith pounced at Zhang Ruochen. Gray-black flames spewed out of its mouth, interwoven with a sea of Curse runes.
The corrosive power of the gray-black flames was extremely terrifying. Wherever it passed, the dimension melted rapidly.
The Ancient Abyssal Blade flew out of the Divine Light Sea of Qi. Zhang Ruochen grabbed it and waved it slowly. The Precepts of Swordsmanship and the Precepts of Dimension were activated at the same time.
“Realm of Swords.”
A calm voice sounded. A strange world was created out of thin air, engulfing the Cursed Wraith within.
This world was filled with endless Sword Qi. Each one could threaten a Nine-Step Saint King.
This sword technique was created by Zhang Ruochen after 28 years of seclusion. It perfectly combined both the Precepts of Swordsmanship and Dimension.
Of course, the Precept of Swordsmanship and the Precept of Dimension were both broad and profound. The sword technique created by Zhang Ruochen at this stage could only be considered a base form and further improvement was required. By then, the power it could unleash would also be enhanced accordingly.
The great advantage of creating a saint technique was that it had unlimited room for growth. It could be perfected step by step and become extraordinary in the future.
In fact, many of the saint techniques that were passed down in the various worlds were created by the gods at various stages of their cultivation. There was a deep connection between them.
If one cultivated a lower-level saint technique first, there was hope to use it as a foundation to practice a higher-level saint technique.
When Zhang Ruochen was fighting with the Cursed Wraith, the Curse power released by the Hadean Furnace was still spreading.
The Curse power merged and seeped into Luoshui. Many cultivators who fled to the depths of Luoshui were terrified by it.
It wasn’t until now that many cultivators understood why the Hadean Furnace could extinguish the life of a great world. It was because it could seep into anything and erode everything.
“Both Nether Demon and Nether Buddha are too strong. They can actually activate the Hadean Furnace to such an extent. If this continues, we’ll all die in Luoshui.
“There’s no other way. We can only continue to retreat into the depths of Luoshui. There might be a chance of survival. If we leave Luoshui now, we’ll probably be dead. We can’t come in contact with the Hadean Curse. Even a Nine-Step Saint King will end up in a miserable state.
“Zhang Ruochen really got us killed this time. He wants to implicate us in the grudge between him and the Nether Clan.
“You’re thinking too simply. Since both Nether Demon and Nether Buddha have come to Kunlun Realm, they’ll definitely cause a bloodbath. If they didn’t want to deal with Zhang Ruochen, they might have already used extreme methods to wipe everyone out in Luoshui.
“I just received news that before Nether Demon entered Kunlun Realm, he ambushed a Supreme Saint in the Late-stage of Neverwither realm. He almost succeeded. We can’t afford to provoke such a fiend.”
…
The cultivators were conversing while sped up their escape.
The cultivators had suffered an unexpected disaster this time. They had thought to come to look for an opportunity. They hadn’t expected to be trapped in Luoshui by Nether Demon and Nether Buddha. They were in a dilemma.
“Master, what should we do now? There are still many of our cultivators of the Tianchu Civilization on the Nine Carols Star. If the Power of Curse seeps through, they won’t be able to resist it at all,” Li Miaohan said worriedly.
The butcher frowned and said, “If the Power of Curse corrodes the Nine Carols Star, our cultivators of the Tianchu Civilization will not be able to comprehend the Paths in the future.”
“Damn Nether Demon and Nether Buddha. I really hope that they will be devoured by the Hadean Furnace.” The fool gritted his teeth and said.
Even though he was furious, the other party was the two strongest cultivators below the Supreme Saint of the Nether Clan. There was no way for them to fight back. They could only be anxious.
The Nether Clan was born with the Power of Curse. However, in this generation, only Nether Demon and Nether Buddha were able to control the power of the Hadean Curse.
Even Son of Darkness needed to borrow external forces to be able to use the Power of Curse.
The power of the Hadean Curse was extremely terrifying. It was a power that could contend with the nine Path of the Ancients. It was because of this that Nether Demon and Nether Buddha were able to become top-notch cultivators below the Supreme Saint-level, they were on par with Son of Darkness, who were the Masters of Darkness.
Only those who possessed the power of the Hadean Curse were able to activate the Hadean Furnace. Otherwise, they would suffer a backlash.
At this moment, Fairy Tianchu closed her eyes, and a mysterious energy fluctuation radiated from her body.
Rumble
A huge commotion came from the depths of Luoshui, and the Nine Carols Star that was floating in Luoshui started to shake violently.
The nine divine rivers flowing on the Nine Carols Star suddenly increased their speed by ten times. They released a vast amount of divine force that instantly reached Fairy Tianchu’s body.
Instantly, Fairy Tianchu opened her eyes. Her body emitted a dazzling light that spread out for several hundred kilometers.
With a light tap of her feet, Fairy Tianchu’s delicate body floated into the air. Her hands slowly spread out, and her body emitted an increasingly saint aura. It was as if Luoshen had appeared once again.
For a moment, the waters behind Fairy Tianchu stirred up huge waves. It was a hundred meters tall, a thousand meters tall, ten thousand meters tall… . Layers upon layers of terrifying waves connected the sky and the Earth. The entire Luoshui seemed to have flipped over, and the scene was incomparably terrifying.
“What happened?”
The cultivators who were fleeing towards the depths of Luoshui all had astonished expressions on their faces.
Everyone could see strands of golden mist gathering from all directions and converge onto Fairy Tianchu’s body.
As for the vast power contained within Luoshui, it had already been augmented onto Fairy Tianchu’s body.
“Master, you have resonated with the Nine Corals Star and obtained the divine force of Luoshen. Luoshui is almost completely under master’s control.” Li Miaohan lifted her head to look at Fairy Tianchu and said excitedly.
“Her Highness is simply the incarnation of Luoshen. She was actually able to draw upon such majestic energy. Even the Hadean Curse that was infused into Luoshui is being rapidly expelled.” The fool’s eyes were filled with reverence.
Fairy Tianchu’s expression was solemn. She stretched out her slender finger and pointed.
Splash.
Behind her, the ten thousand meter tall waves transformed into countless water dragons. They carried boundless power as they charged straight towards Nether Demon and Nether Buddha.
At the same time, the Power of Curse that permeated the Luoshui also reversed.
Bang.
The Hadean Furnace was struck by the attack and flipped over. The Curse runes on its surface dimmed as a result.
Both Nether Demon and Nether Buddha’s expressions changed. They hadn’t expected Fairy Tianchu to display such a powerful technique.
Zhang Ruochen naturally wouldn’t let go of such a rare opportunity. He let go of the Ancient Abyssal Blade and used the Luoshui Fist Technique.
Fairy Tianchu had already activated the power of Luoshui. Now, she could display the true power of the Luoshui Fist Technique.
As Zhang Ruochen waved his fist, a huge wave rushed out of Luoshui.
Two towering figures appeared on both sides of Zhang Ruochen. One was a god, and the other was a ghost. They stepped on the wave and charged at Nether Demon and Nether Buddha.
Both Nether Demon and Nether Buddha were dealing with Fairy Tianchu’s attack. At this moment, Zhang Ruochen’s attack was hard for them to deal with.
In a hurry, Nether Demon and Nether Buddha attacked at the same time. They combined the Power of Curse and the Power of Darkness to form two huge palm prints.
Bang.
The phantom of the god and ghost collapsed, but the huge impact still sent Nether demon and Nether Buddha flying.
There were traces of blood at the corners of Nether Demon and Nether Buddha’s mouths. They had obviously suffered a bit.
At the same time, Zhang Ruochen used the Realm of Swords with all his strength to cut the Cursed Wraith into pieces. Then he used the Power of Dimensions to completely shatter it.
On the other side, Fairy Tianchu landed on the water again. Her breath was weak and her face was pale.
Li Miaohan quickly reached out and held Fairy Tianchu. “Master, how are you?”
“I’m fine. I just used up all my Saint Qi.” Fairy Tianchu shook her head.
Fairy Tianchu’s cultivation hadn’t reached its peak yet. Even if she could borrow Luoshen’s remaining divine force, she couldn’t attack continuously.
However, just one attack was enough to solve the crisis. It was also enough to help Zhang Ruochen.
At the moment, Nether Demon and Nether Buddha were at a disadvantage. The situation was undoubtedly advantageous to Zhang Ruochen.
AH!
Suddenly, Great Prince Mara let out a shrill scream.
Everyone couldn’t help but look over. They saw a bloody scene.
One of Great Prince Mara’s arms and a wing were torn off by the Azure Dragon’s Dragon Claw. Blood was dripping.
“Master, I’ll go help the Azure Dragon.”
Moyin came out of Zhang Ruochen’s spine and its eyes shining.
Zhang Ruochen understood what Moyin was thinking. It clearly wanted to devour Great Prince Mara’s Spiritual Qi and Sainthood Source. He couldn’t help but nod. “Go. Don’t let him die too easily.”
“Don’t worry, master. I’ll make sure he suffers,” Moyin promised.
Immediately, Moyin rushed out and charged towards the battlefield between the Azure Dragon and Great Prince Mara.
After devouring the essence of many powerhouses from the Infernal Court on True Dragon Island, along with the countless powerful Nether Serpent’s souls, she went into seclusion and cultivated for thirty-four years.
Moyin’s accumulation could be said to be extremely powerful. No one knew just what level her strength had reached?
Great Prince Mara couldn’t handle the Azure Dragon alone. Now, with Moyin, it has gotten even worse.
“Great Prince Mara is finished!”
This thought appeared in many cultivators’ minds.
Of course, they were more concerned about Zhang Ruochen’s battle with Nether Demon and Nether Buddha. After what had happened, they all hoped that Zhang Ruochen could defeat them and put an end to the crisis.
Nether Demon turned his gaze to Fairy Tianchu. Terrifying killing intent appeared in his eyes. If Fairy Tianchu hadn’t suddenly interfered, how could they have lost to Zhang Ruochen?
“Your opponent is me.”
Zhang Ruochen held the Ancient Abyssal Blade and walked forward.
With him around, how could anyone lay a hand on Fairy Tianchu?
“Nether Budda, stall Zhang Ruochen for me. I’ll go kill the Fairy Tianchu,” Nether Demon said in a low voice.
In Nether Demon’s eyes, Fairy Tianchu’s existence was a great threat. He had to get rid of her as soon as possible and he didn’t want the same thing to repeat itself.
“Stop embarrassing yourselves. Two against one, you can’t take her down for a long time. Yet you claimed to be the strongest of the Nether Clan.”
At this moment, a voice with a sneer suddenly sounded.
Nether Demon and Nether Buddha’s expressions changed slightly. They turned their heads at the same time and looked at the distant horizon.
They could sense that although the voice was loud, it was not nearby. Instead, it came from hundreds of thousands of miles away.
In the next moment, the wind and clouds surged above Luoshui. Thick black clouds appeared and covered the area within ten thousand miles.
Crack.
A large area of space shattered, forming a massive black hole that seemed to pierce through the heavens and earth.
A figure that looked like a Divine Demon crossed the void and walked out of the black hole.
Just the aura it released completely annihilated the surrounding space.
Bang.
The Divine Demon figure landed with a bang, causing the land within a five thousand kilometer radius to sink down by several hundred meters, causing Luoshui to flow backward.
The land turned into a sea.
An incomparably evil aura emanated from this person, and it was even more powerful than the Hadean Curse.
When the land within a radius of 1,000 kilometers was corroded by this evil aura, it immediately turned into black soil. Large areas of Luoshui were also dyed black like ink.
“Yan… Yan Wushen.”
When the cultivators saw this person, their faces couldn’t help but change dramatically, and their bodies trembled.
…
The most powerful cultivator below the Supreme Saint, Yan Wushen of the Infernal Court!
