Chapter 6218 Dark Energy
That four-hundred-flame divine sprout had managed to charge through the blockade not just by seizing an opening, but also because the others hadn’t gone all-out to stop him. After all, he only had four hundred Sovereign flames.
Once he entered the innate bead, the Vermilion Bird’s manifestation reappeared. In just a few exchanges, blood sprayed through the air. That expert was sent flying, half his body torn away.
Gasps rippled through the crowd. Even someone this powerful wasn’t enough?
Seeing this person flee in just a few moves, mocking voices rang out.
“Fool. If you’re not prepared to die, how could you ever hope to subdue the Vermilion Bird’s will?” A mocking voice rang out as the injured expert fled from the bead.
Gritting his teeth, the injured expert didn’t dare speak back. He could only sigh.
“It seems only someone with five hundred Sovereign flames stands a chance. But there are fewer than ten of them here... and none will let the others try first. I wonder who’ll seize the legacy?”𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
Just then, the Eight Desolation Devil Subduing Spear started to shake, and its divine runes lit up.
“The divine weapon is on the verge of awakening! Quick, seize it now!” A shout echoed from somewhere in the crowd.
Many hearts skipped a beat. In an instant, dozens of experts turned away from the Primal Chaos Vermilion Bird’s body and bolted toward the spear. As its curse energy was now visibly being expelled, no one could resist it.
“Courting death!” Long Biluo shouted, her cold voice exploding.
Seeing so many people charge toward the spear, she was blazing with killing intent.
After clashing with the Primal Chaos Vermilion Bird for so many years, the spear had managed to eliminate the Vermilion Bird’s vitality. However, it was also nearly cursed to death itself. Now, with the curse dissipating, its weakened state made it ripe for claiming.
Since its former wielder was long dead, whoever seized it now would gain a supreme treasure.
“Anyone who tries to take my race’s divine weapon will die!” Long Biluo shouted, taking a step forward.
The next moment, the ground beneath her feet contracted, and she appeared in front of a four-hundred-flame divine sprout.
That cultivator came from the other world. Seeing her attack, he immediately activated his Sovereign flames and summoned a golden shield.
BOOM!
Long Biluo’s palm landed quietly. At first, nothing seemed to happen. Then the shield quivered, and the divine sprout exploded into a mist of blood.
“What?!”
Gasps filled the air. While everyone knew someone personally invited by Kun Wufa wouldn't be weak, no one had expected this.
After all, Long Biluo hadn’t even summoned her manifestation or Sovereign flames, but that casual strike had obliterated a four-hundred-flame divine sprout.
“This Eight Desolation Devil Subduing Spear belongs to the Jiuli race. Anyone who touches it will die!” Long Biluo shouted, trying to intimidate these competitors.
Yet, even as her words rang out, a chain shot out of the darkness and wrapped around the spear, attempting to pull it away.
“Die!”
Long Biluo raised her palm again. This time, black runes bloomed across her hand as she clenched her fingers.
The void in the distance ruptured, and blood mist exploded—whoever had tried to take the spear was instantly slain.
“Dark energy? What a surprising bloodline...” Long Chen exclaimed, startled.
Previously, Long Biluo had managed to ignore her target’s defenses and directly kill them. At that moment, Long Chen had felt a dark aura, but he hadn’t been sure.
Now that Long Chen had seen these black runes, his guess was confirmed. Long Biluo possessed an extremely rare dark attribute bloodline.
Dark energy was mysterious and unfathomable. It could be cold and violent or gentle and nurturing. Unlike elemental energies like fire or light, dark energy could not be classified or studied in a conventional way.
For example, a person could study the light energy and categorize it into different classifications based on size, strength, and color.
But darkness? It could not be classified or analyzed. The cultivation world had explored it since time immemorial, but had yet to find a complete answer.
Long Chen had encountered others with dark energy before—like the Netherdragon race. Even his own heart-devil was steeped in it, possessing a terrifying, unfathomable darkness.
And now, Long Biluo had killed two elite divine sprouts with ease, without even summoning her manifestation or Sovereign flames. Her power was truly frightening.
Even though the Eight Desolation Devil Subduing Spear was extremely tempting, Long Biluo was simply too powerful. Not even the five-hundred-flame divine sprouts were confident they could defeat her.
As a result, the surrounding experts could only watch her with resentment and helplessness as the spear continued to shine. Its curse energy was rapidly being expelled, and its divine fluctuations grew stronger with each passing breath.
BOOM!
Just then, another person charged into the innate bead. When Long Biluo saw who it was, her expression changed.
It was Kun Wufa.
Taking advantage of everyone’s focus on her, he had slipped through the chaos and entered the bead.
“Long Biluo, help me block them! Kill whoever tries to interfere!” shouted Kun Wufa.
BOOM!
He had barely finished speaking when the Vermilion Bird’s manifestation attacked. Its sharp claws slashed toward him.
Still mid-shout, Kun Wufa was nearly torn to shreds. Cold sweat poured down his back.
Only now did he grasp just how terrifying the Primal Chaos Vermilion Bird truly was. He immediately regretted limiting Long Biluo’s protection to an incense stick’s time. He had no idea if he could subdue the Vermillion Bird’s manifestation in such a short time.
“Kunpeng Manifestation: Ten Thousand Laws Turn to Nothing!”
Kun Wufa finally went all-out. His Sovereign flames surged, each one birthing a golden divine flower. The next moment, his aura rose explosively.
He had clearly been hiding his full strength this whole time.
But even so, the Vermilion Bird’s manifestation fought him like a wild beast seeking vengeance. It was as if Kun Wufa had personally slaughtered its kin.
Kun Wufa roared and clashed against the manifestation. The entire flame world quaked from their battle.
Outside, Long Biluo cursed under her breath.
“This idiot’s beyond saving.”
He actually believed her display had scared everyone off. Unfortunately, these people were elite powerhouses—no one would just sit back and let him seize the Vermilion Bird’s legacy unopposed.
“Everyone, give me some face. Don’t make me do something you’ll regret. After an incense stick’s—” she started to speak, thickening her face.
But before she could finish, a wretched figure was blasted out of the innate bead, blood spurting from his mouth.
