Chapter 438: Curtain Fall!
Heaven-Shaker · 第438章 落幕!
The changes in the distance instantly drew many gazes. When they sensed a monstrous aura charging out from within, all could not help but change color.
"It seems this is truly a reversal. Two Emperor-level powerhouses, and that soul body...!" The old woman of the Su family's eyes shifted slightly as she murmured softly, a hint of regret in her gaze.
The soul body in the void was extremely powerful, even touching the threshold of Manifestation, and its mastery of alchemical flame techniques was admirable. The fall of such an alchemy grandmaster was truly regrettable.
Hearing this, Qing Yuan's face darkened. If there were two Emperor-level figures, escaping would be as difficult as reaching the heavens.
"It seems I will have to fall into slumber now..." Yang Xiao was the first to sense the change, and he sighed. At this moment, his soul body was growing increasingly dim; if not for the wonders of the Azure Flame Heavenly Fire and the Mountain River Cauldron, he would have long since perished.
"Heaven helps me!" Long Yang roared, mountains trembling. An indescribable excitement appeared on his face as he howled, his internal energy surging even more fiercely.
Yang Tian, who was regulating his breath, suddenly opened his eyes. His brows tightly knit as he looked at the azure divine flame about to break through, he shouted, "You all leave quickly; soon it will be too late."
Hearing this, Xing Shan and the other hesitated for a moment, then gritted their teeth. If anything happened to Yun'er and Xing Hao, they could not bear the consequences.
The two grabbed the violently struggling pair, but after walking a short distance, their bodies suddenly halted.
Boom! An extremely terrifying energy suddenly surged from all directions, like great waves, crushing down upon their bodies.
"Not good!" Xing Shan's face changed drastically. A lightning-shining talisman suddenly appeared in his hand. The moment he crushed it, an energy like the awakening of the Thunder God suddenly swept across the ten directions.
It was a lightning domain, where ancient lightning bolts flashed, carrying an aura of destruction, and the entire void was sealed down.
Rumble! The terrifying waves crashed against the lightning domain, erupting with ear-splitting explosions, like mountains and rivers bursting, waves shattering clouds—a scene of doomsday.
"Ancestor, save me!" Just as everyone's hearts trembled, a very weak voice suddenly sounded from within the prison.
As the voice fell, a disheveled figure instantly appeared. His eyes, cold to the extreme, swept over the prison, and he suddenly let out a roar.
Bang! He was on the verge of madness. The Li family had only Li Yulan left. He furiously struck the prison, rescuing the figure inside.
Li Yulan's condition was very bad. Black threads spread all over his body, causing him great pain. Those black threads, like clinging parasites, coiled around his entire body.
"Why?!" Li Qi roared unwillingly. The Li family was nearly annihilated, with only Li Yulan left, and he had suffered such terrible injuries.
"Why?" Yang Tian looked at him and sneered, "You colluded with the demon race to harm my family; now this is retribution. Did you think the demons would spare Li Yulan?"
"Yang Tian!" Li Qi went mad, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Yang Tian as he let out a mournful roar. His appearance chilled many hearts.
"Old man, kill Yang Tian, and I guarantee your clansman's life will be spared!" At this moment, a voice sounded from within the two massive energy domains.
Li Qi's body trembled violently. He looked at Li Yulan, who was nearly unconscious. This was the only remaining member of the Li family. His own lifespan was short; he must not let the Li family line end.
"All of this is because of you! Because of you!" Li Qi was almost demonically possessed, roaring repeatedly as his body suddenly dashed toward Yang Tian.
Rumble! At that moment, a three-legged, two-eared great cauldron suddenly appeared in the field. The cauldron, only a zhang tall, suddenly expanded.
Ancient notes filled heaven and earth, as if gods were chanting. The cauldron's walls clanged incessantly, and a chilling aura suddenly leaked out.
Rumble! Like ancient war chariots roaring, the great cauldron shot out dazzling and terrifying divine light. The cauldron rumbled within, as if gods were shouting, causing heaven and earth to shake.
On the layers of the cauldron's walls, world-shaking scenes appeared: terrifyingly powerful beings roaring, shaking mountains and rivers, battling, as if about to step out of the cauldron's walls.
The entire scene was petrified. Eyes bulged wide, incredulous gazes fixed on the Mountain River Cauldron, their lips trembling.
"This... this is... a divine object!" The old woman of the Su family's eyes shot out two brilliant divine lights as she suddenly shouted, her voice spreading across the entire scene.
The word "divine object" fell, and the entire scene fell into dead silence. Their minds trembled; this was a divine object, the supreme artifact of heaven and earth!
"Gulp..." Qing Yuan swallowed his saliva, his lips parched. He had never expected Yang Tian to possess a divine object.
"My goodness, a divine object..." Shangguan Hao's lips quivered slightly. Even their family did not have a divine object; this was the supreme treasure of heaven and earth.
Countless people revealed torch-like eyes, scanning the terrifying great cauldron. They were all tempted, all wanting to seize it.
Not to mention them, the young man's eyes burned with fiery passion, flames almost leaping out. In the present age, divine objects had not appeared since the ancient great war, when they had suffered terrible damage.
Now that a divine object had appeared, no one was unmoved.
"This divine object is extremely similar to the supreme technique manifested by the White-Robed Sovereign," the black-robed man's body trembled as he couldn't help saying.
"Is Yang Tian connected to the White-Robed Sovereign?" He thought for a moment but dared not think further. If there was a connection, Yang Tian would likely face frenzied attacks from the demon race.
"Where is Uncle Xiao?" At this moment, Yang Tian's eyelids twitched. He did not see Yang Xiao's figure and began to worry. Activating this divine object consumed energy, and not just a little.
The Mountain River Cauldron blotted out the sky, unleashing overwhelming divine might. A resplendent Golden-Winged Roc flew out to attack Li Qi.
A Bifang divine bird emerged, spreading its wings to the clouds, flames soaring into the sky, extremely domineering, as if to tear apart Long Yang's body.
Li Qi trembled all over, not daring to be careless. He activated his life essence, fully protecting himself. He dared not withstand a divine object head-on.
"Bastard!" Long Yang's face darkened, and boundless divine light surged around him, like a turtle shell protecting him firmly.
"Find a way to leave. I'll go all out to activate the River Cauldron, but I can hold out for at most thirty breaths." Just as Yang Tian grew anxious, Yang Xiao's extremely weak voice slowly sounded.
Hearing this, Yang Tian leaped up, his body charging into the sky. A blood-red divine light appeared in his brow and shot straight toward the young man's brow.
"Go now!" Yang Tian roared, not daring to waste a single moment. Although Yang Xiao had said thirty breaths, Yang Tian felt as if the end was near.
Yuan Xia's eyelashes trembled slightly. As she moved to protect the boy who seemed about to die, an extremely violent energy suddenly burst forth from within Yang Tian's body.
It was a terrifying energy to the extreme, so violent it made hearts tremble. Everyone present felt their hair stand on end, and even the young man's eyes flickered for a moment.
Rumble! Heaven and earth shook, on the verge of collapse. From Yang Tian's brow suddenly emerged two small golden figures, blazing with light. Under the young man's astonished gaze, the two small figures abruptly exploded!
Like two blazing suns, they burst like a red sun, emitting dazzling divine light of immense power. That stretch of void was completely submerged in golden light.
Within surged a wild and unmatched energy, carving out a huge black abyss that made the hearts of all the experts tremble.
"What secret art is this?" Yuan Xia covered her lips, looking at Yang Tian's swaying body and his pale, snow-white face. Unconsciously, a teardrop appeared at the corner of her eye. At this moment, she felt a desire to cry.
"Go!" Seeing Yuan Xia somewhat dazed, Yang Tian grabbed her arm and roared at Fatty, the sound rumbling across heaven and earth.
Hearing this, Fatty instantly snapped awake, his hair standing on end. He suddenly threw out nine copper coins and shouted, "Heaven and earth boundless, seek the hidden and explore the secret. I command the cosmos, reverse the void!"
His shouts, like a great bronze bell, rumbled across heaven and earth, as if gods were chanting mysterious and unfathomable arts.
While everyone was stunned, the nine copper coins stirred the void, causing heaven and earth to resonate. Like thunderclaps and raging winds, they seemed to summon wind and rain.
It was as if an ancient void had split open a corner, and a fluctuation that made all the experts tremble emerged from within.
"Go!" Yang Tian could no longer hold on. He roared, his eyes rolling back, nearly fainting. He had forcibly detonated two avatars, leaving his cultivation severely injured, almost on the verge of death.
Rumble! Just as Yang Tian's body was about to collapse, a jade-like finger suddenly descended from the void. A terrifying wave of air surged down like a great mountain falling.
"Pfft, pfft..." Yang Tian's body suffered a devastating blow. The impact instantly wounded him, and he spat out two mouthfuls of blood. He roared, "Gu Lingyun, you're asking for death!"
As soon as Yang Tian's words fell, he fainted. His injuries compounded, his body drenched in blood. He had suffered a terrible trauma!
"You...!" The one-armed elder of the Li family looked at the woman who had struck, a surge of immense anger in his eyes, but also a hint of satisfaction.
"How dare you!" A group of elders from the Ancient Sacred Land were enraged. Gu Lingyun actually dared to strike—wasn't she offending that mysterious woman to the utmost?
A jade-soft delicate body blocked his way. Yuanxia's dazed eyes gazed at the unconscious, sobbing face, and her jade hand couldn't help but caress it.
“Bastard!” She suddenly turned her head, her piercing gaze emitting overwhelming coldness. The entire Li clan grounds felt as if a winter wind had swept through, most people shivering. The jade-like finger in the void instantly burst apart!
“You're asking for death!” Yuanxia instantly locked onto the attacker, her deep shout like a divine sound from beyond the realm, spreading across the scene. The murderous aura it contained made all the strong present tremble inwardly.
“Who is this person? How dare they be so bold as to strike?”
“I heard Yang Tian call out Gu Lingyun's name. Could this black-robed person be the one having an affair with her nephew?”
She became the center of attention. Gu Lingyun's heart trembled with fear, her body shaking. This woman in white, like an immortal, was too terrifying—just an icy glare nearly killed her.
“No time, go quickly!” Yang Ba roared, blocking Yuanxia who was about to charge forward.
Looking at the woman wrapped in a black robe, Yuanxia bit her red lips. She had never been so furious, but now she had to forcibly suppress it. At this moment, saving Yang Tian's life was paramount.
“Brother Yang…” Yun'er covered her red lips with her jade hand, tears pattering down. She understood well that to trap such a terrifying figure inside, he must have suffered extremely severe injuries.
“Go quickly!” Fatty shouted, entering the rift first, urgently urging the others.
“No one gets away!” Amid the heavily golden exploding space, a miserable roar sounded. A tattered figure walked out, his whole body drenched in blood.
“You all must die!” He was going mad, eyes bloodshot, charging explosively toward the rift.
Yuanxia looked up at the youth hurtling toward her, placed the boy in her arms in the void, and was about to charge out when a figure blocked her.
“You go first. I have my own way.” Yang Ba's eyes were icy, devoid of any emotion. His entire body trembled, the golden war spear clanging. At this moment, an extremely powerful energy within him awakened.
Boom boom boom! As the scene dissipated, Yang Ba charged out, appearing as if he would die, his whole body erupting with destructive aura, blocking the figure about to reach the rift.
On the other side, two Emperor-level figures broke free, sneering, and charged toward the Mountain River Cauldron.
“Little one, don't worry about me… Some paths you must walk alone.” Looking at the rift about to close, Yang Xiao smiled.
In this world, a murderous intent that chilled people seemed to rise abruptly, spreading across the sky, as if a god of death had arrived.
This figure was entirely enveloped in ten thousand layers of slaughter, as if about to cause boundless bloodshed!
“Yang Ba!” Xiao Ji roared. The rift before him had already dissipated, the void twisting. This was a terrifying great art, impossible to block, crossing to who knows where.
“He escaped! That little bastard actually escaped!” Gu Lingyun couldn't believe her eyes, screaming inwardly. But there was also a relief at having survived.
