Chapter 2241 Sword Of Annihilation
Chapter 2241: Sword Of Annihilation Chapter 2241: Sword Of Annihilation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Xia Ruoxue held Ye Chen tightly in her embrace. Tears streamed down her face as she cried. “I am sorry,” she said, her heart full of regret. She wished it was her who had to pay the price, not Ji Siqing. After a few seconds, Ye Chen lowered his head and gently wiped away Xia Ruoxue’s tears with his hand. He smiled softly and said, “Silly girl, what is there to be sorry about?” “The world is so large, but Xia Lingqiu will not be able to escape far.” “I will find Xia Lingqiu, and I will rescue Siqing.” “I will make Xia Lingqiu understand the price she must pay for crossing me!” “I will crush her heart and send her to hell!” Xia Ruoxue’s gaze sharpened, and her feelings of self-reproach transformed into a strong sense of determination. She silently vowed that she would reach the peak of the cultivation realm so that she no longer had to experience being so helpless and powerless. She broke free from Ye Chen’s embrace and looked up at the sky. Suddenly, a thought struck her, and she dashed off in a certain direction. If she wished to cultivate and make a breakthrough quickly, she had to seize that mysterious stone! “Ye Chen, wait a moment. I will return shortly.” Ye Chen did not try to stop her and nodded in silence. Soon after, Lan Xueyue and Bai Zhentang arrived. “It is my fault,” Lan Xueyue shook his head regretfully. “I did not expect Xia Lingqiu to possess such a treasure.” “If you wish to blame someone, then blame me.” Ye Chen was about to respond when the sky suddenly changed color, and an overwhelming pressure surged forth. This was… The power of the Heavenly Dao! Feng Qingyang’s expression shifted dramatically. “Not good! Disciple, you just utilized the power of the Wind Tablet and the Red Dust Divine Bloodline, so the Heavenly Dao Palace has noticed it!” … A minute earlier, in the Divine Kingdom’s Heavenly Dao Palace. The divine dragon lay with an imposing presence. The man atop the divine dragon exuded an extremely powerful aura. Suddenly, the Heavenly Dao Palace trembled, and this time, the shaking was especially intense. One of the enormous statues hanging above the hall had a finger broken. The divine dragon and the man opened their eyes simultaneously and exclaimed, “Reincarnation Tablet!” The man’s fingers formed a seal, and with a swift gesture, an image materialized. It depicted the events occurring in the Spirit Immortal Palace. However, due to Ye Chen’s unique fate, the man on the divine dragon could only perceive a blurred image. Even so, he smiled. “That young man has finally reappeared.” “I have been waiting for this day!” “Eternal Sacred King! You went to great lengths to arrange this, but today, I will shatter that boy and destroy your grand plan completely!” As he concluded his declaration, the formation in the Heavenly Dao Palace surged. A world-destroying aura erupted! The man on the divine dragon was already prepared, as Ye Chen’s existence had made him feel threatened. He had dispatched individuals to establish the Heavenly Dao formation to harness the formidable power of the Heavenly Dao to eliminate that mysterious young man. So what if that young man controlled the Reincarnation Tablet? As long as he did not control ten pieces, how could he shake the Divine Kingdom or the Heavenly Dao Palace? … Dark clouds gathered ominously above the Spirit Immortal Palace. It was as if the end of the world had arrived. “Damn it!” Lan Xueyue’s expression was grave. “This is not ordinary power. This is the power of the Heavenly Dao Formation!” “In the history of Lingwu Continent, it has only descended four times!” “To use this power to kill a Star Aperture realm expert, the Heavenly Dao Palace must be insane.” With that, Lan Xueyue no longer hesitated and forced out ten drops of his blood essence. As Ye Chen’s master, he had to assist Ye Chen in blocking this attack, no matter the cost! After all, he understood the fate Ye Chen was carrying. The dark clouds in the sky appeared to have formed an extreme black vortex, which emitted a world-destroying aura. A sword of annihilation was condensed, surrounded by lightning. The lightning essence itself contained the power of a Great Void realm expert’s attack, and the power of that sword was even more terrifying! The space surrounding the sword tore and collapsed! Who would have expected that the mighty Heavenly Dao Palace would pay such a price to eliminate a mere Star Aperture realm young man? It was unbelievable! In an instant, the Sword of Annihilation descended with lightning! It was clear that the Heavenly Dao Palace desired to eliminate Ye Chen, and that they did not wish to wait another second. Lan Xueyue’s expression was grave. He glared at Ye Chen. “Ye Chen, run!” “This sword has locked onto you. I can only delay with all of my power!” “Hurry and leave!” With that, Lan Xueyue soared into the sky. At that moment, his aura suddenly surged. There was even the aura of a breakthrough emanating from his body. He was on the verge of stepping into the Great Void realm! Originally, Lan Xueyue had intended to advance to the Great Void realm safely, but now it seemed he had no choice. His blood essence ignited, forming a colossal ice sword. The ice sword appeared to be thousands of feet tall as it shot into the sky and collided with the sword of annihilation! One second! Two seconds! Energy surged, and the ice sword shattered! Lan Xueyue was sent flying! Bai Zhentang’s expression showed his determination. He was no match for Lan Xueyue, yet, he charged toward the Sword of Annihilation without hesitation! However, before he could get close, he was sent flying back. He crashed to the ground and suffered serious injuries. His eyes were filled with helplessness. Ye Chen did not flee, because he understood that he could not escape. He could only activate the Red Dust Divine Bloodline with all his strength. He even burned his blood essence and cultivation! The Sword of Annihilation drew nearer and nearer. Ye Chen’s clothes were torn, and blood poured out of his body. Activating the Red Dust Divine Bloodline proved futile, as it had already exceeded his limits. The Sword of Annihilation was on the verge of consuming Ye Chen. In that moment of realization, Ye Chen roared, “High Wind Divine Bloodline! Activate!” The wind surged, and a 100-foot-long blue tornado materialized. Ye Chen found himself in the eye of the storm, resisting that overwhelming power. Unfortunately, the blue tornado only managed to slow the Sword of Annihilation for a few seconds before vanishing. Ye Chen’s injuries were too severe. He had just activated the Red Dust Divine Bloodline, and now he had activated the High Wind Divine Bloodline. It was impossible for him to continue. The spiritual energy in his dantian was depleted. “Am I going to die?” “I have not yet found Xia Lingqiu!” “How can I die?!” Ye Chen’s eyes shone with a fierce will to live. However, given his limited strength, how could he contend against the heavens? He could only watch helplessly as the Sword of Annihilation approached him. Suddenly, an old voice rang out. “Heavenly Dao Palace, Ye Chen is the only variable in this ancient chess game. I, the Eternal Sacred King, will not allow you to touch him!” It was the Eternal Sacred King! The gourd in the Eternal Sacred King’s hand suddenly expanded, attempting to consume the world-destroying sword! However, the two forces were locked in a stalemate for a few seconds, then the gourd was torn apart in an instant. A trickle of blood appeared from the corner of the Eternal Sacred King’s mouth. “Elder Yong!” Ye Chen called out in worry. “I cannot contend against the Heavenly Dao Palace alone,” the Eternal Sacred King replied gravely as he extended his hand. “The only solution is for me to break through to the Disaster Slaying realm and trigger the lightning tribulation. Then, I will breach the spatial restraints and connect to the Demon Territory.” “Demon Emperor, you are the only one who can act next.” “The power in the Demon Territory was planted by you long ago. It can withstand this sword of annihilation.” “You and I must pay a price to save this young man.”
