Chapter 766: Singular Annihilation (II)

After a whole quarter of an hour, the grey haze around the undead kings dispersed slowly.

When the Knight of Judgement of the Dead faced Long Haochen again, his prior aggression had vanished completely.

“Esteemed human king, you have demonstrated your ability and sincerity with your blood pact. Since you are able to form a contract like that with Austin Griffin, we have decided to believe you. We hope you can keep your promise and keep Griffin restrained,” the Knight of Judgement of the Dead referred to Long Haochen in a different way, implying their agreement and their recognition of Long Haochen.

Long Haochen nodded emotionlessly, “I won’t repeat what I just said.”

Although the Knight of Judgement of the Dead was unable to gain a further promise from Long Haochen, he did not pursue the matter. He glanced at Haoyue in the distance in some fear, before leading the undead kings and their undead army away in a slow retreat.

Watching the undead kings vanish slowly, Long Haochen produced a deep sigh. White light expanded from his limbs, before all gathering towards the huge gemstone on his chest. When all the light had been absorbed, the Divine Throne of Eternity and Creation vanished silently with the central gemstone.

Long Haochen tottered slightly. His face was extremely pale. He only managed to stay on his feet with Han Yu’s support.

He was not weakened due to overexhaustion of spiritual energy. Instead, the weakness came from his soul. The Divine Throne of Eternity and Creation made him feel like he had endless power, but the mental effort required to control this terrifying powerful was horrifying. Even though he had completely fused with the throne, Long Haochen had almost expended all of his mental force in the battle earlier. It was very normal for his soul to be weakened. This was also one of the main reasons why he did not want to keep fighting. If it continued, it would probably take too heavy of a toll on his soul.

After a moment of meditation, Long Haochen stabilised his condition. He said to his companions beside him, “Han Yu, brother Zhang, please survey the surroundings. Everyone else scattered yourselves in the outskirts of the Domain of Purification. Let’s wait for Haoyue’s evolution to be completed.”

“Alright.” Everyone moved quickly. They all took up a particular position, while Cai’er remained in the Domain of Purification. There was not a single undead creature that could enter the domain without alerting them even if they had become invisible.

Long Haochen guarded Cai’er. His eyes were closed as he continued to recover his mental force. To his surprise, the chain around his neck transformed from the holy unicorn began to give off a gentle, mental pulse, actually connecting with his mind.

The unicorn could not help him recover his mental force directly, but it could bear some of his mental exhaustion. That way, Long Haochen would be able to recover his mental force just like when he normally cultivated. It would obviously be much faster.

Under Cai’er’s rapid absorption, the power of purification became thinner and thinner, while Cai’er’s aura became stronger and stronger. Even the Tower of Eternity beneath her turned into the same white as the power of purification.

The undead army had indeed retreated and they showed no sign of returning. Long Haochen could guess what the Knight of Judgement of the Dead and the undead kings were thinking.

Their thoughts were very simple. If they kept fighting, there was no chance for them to achieve victory, nor was it possible for them to stop Austin Griffin from awakening. At most, they would just make Long Haochen lose a few people, but that would be setting their grievances in stone. Once Austin Griffin did awaken, would it still spare them?

Long Haochen used the blood pact to prove his close relationship with Haoyue, so the Knight of Judgement of the Dead needed to gamble on it. He gambled that Long Haochen would keep his promise and stop targeting them. The undead kings actually had no other choice aside from this after weighing the benefits and consequences.

It was impossible for people to tell the time in this world of black and red. Cai’er’s cultivation increased as Haoyue continued to evolve, while everyone else remained alert while waiting. However, in another world, a war unfolded.

......

...

Boom! With a flash of nine-colored light, a beautiful figure fell down in the distance and fell into a forest that covered almost a thousand square meters.

The beautiful figure was a special creature. It was very pretty and it was jade-green in color with a hint of blue. Its head was very similar to dragons, while it stood around fifteen meters tall. Its long tale was covered with rings of dark purple symbols.

The most beautiful part of its was its wings. On top of the connection between its wings and back was the same colour as its body, but it gradually turned pink further down the connection, before gradually become a ruby red. Its wings were especially wide and the part that protruded from the back also gradually changed to a purple.

On the edge of its wings were slender spikes, with the spike at the very end of the wings the longest. The wings were also covered by an image formed from golden lines, depicting the moon.

Its pupils were jade-green as well. However, they were currently filled with anger, while its powerful aura of nature weakened. A burnt black wound existed on its right abdomen.

A clear, cold voice resounded through the air, “It’s useless. You can’t stop me. Your cultivation might be something, but there’s still a difference if you compare it to mine. Moreover, you’re only a fairy dragon.”

A figure hovered in the air quietly in the distance. His flowing black hair hovered in the form of a wheel behind him, while faint, purple lines of symbols flickered on his long, black robes. It made his skin seem even paler. His eyes seemed to hide the starlight of the universe as his handsome face formed a faint smile. Wasn’t this the Demon God Emperor, Fengxiu?

This was the world of humans and it was very, very close to the Southern Mountain Pass where the Priest Temple resided. However, the Temple Union did not receive any news of it. Let alone the humans, even the high-ranking demons, even the Moon Demon God or Star Demon God, did not know that the Demon God Emperor who should have been in seclusion in the Demon Emperor Palace was actually here.

The fairy dragon slowly climbed to its feet. It unfurled its wings and took to the skies again. Its flight was clearly rather unstable as it stared at Fengxiu coldly, “Demon God Emperor, you better step over my dead body if you want to enter the Illusory Shrine. Perhaps you can defeat me, but without the Demon God Pillar, it’s highly likely that we’ll die together.”

The Demon God Emperor shook his head gently, “No, you’re wrong. If I didn’t have complete confidence, why would I come? Although I haven’t brought the Demon God Pillar with me to fool everyone and to prevent the annoying humans from discovering me, I still have the ability to kill you off completely.”

As he said that, the Demon God Emperor extended his right hand slowly. Afterwards, a strange black colour appeared in front of him.

The black light seemed extremely weak, but in the moment it appeared, all of the light in the surroundings seemed to be sucked away. The light there completely descended into darkness.

The fairy dragon produced a low roar and nine-colored light shone from its body. Powerful pulses of spiritual energy swept out. It was no weaker than the Demon God Emperor.

However, in the next moment, all of the light suddenly vanished. If seen from a distance, the fairy dragon would have seemed like a lantern that was suddenly snuffed out.

The light gradually returned. The Demon God Emperor remained standing there, while the fairy dragon still floated in the air. In that moment, Fengxiu was even more pale than before. His body actually tottered as he floated in the air. The Demon God Emperor had actually become so weak?

On the other side, many black specks had appeared on the fairy dragon’s chest. These black specks were like a disease as they slowly spread out. They did not spread quickly, but the fairy dragon’s tremendous vitality slowly declined.

“Cough, cough,” Fengxiu coughed twice. He actually could not remain in the air anymore, landing on the ground. However, his handsome face still smiled.

“Your total amount of spiritual energy should be between nine hundred and seventy thousand and nine hundred and eighty thousand, while my spiritual energy had already surpassed a million successfully. I don’t belong to this world, so after my spiritual energy has broken through, I won’t become a god. However, I have to endure the backlash of spiritual energy everyday. This is god’s punishment, so I need the status of a god to deal with this issue completely. With the status of a god, I can move through space and the realms and I won’t be bound by the principles of any realm, nor will I have to worry about m longevity. You should feel honoured to die to my Singular Annhiliation. You are the first and of course, you are likely to be the last as well. There probably isn’t another person who’s worthy enough for me to do this on the Shengmo Dalu.”

The fairy dragon was rather stunned as it looked at Fengxiu. The blackness on its chest had already spread to a third of tis body, while specks of light began to drift away from the centre of the blackness. Its body was falling apart!

“Singular Annihilation. You actually have achieved that. You actually managed to endure it despite the backlash of god. You should be the strongest out of all the Demon God Emperors. Your majesty the Goddess of Nature, apologies. I have done all that I can. I can’t protect your Illusory Shrine anymore.”

As it said that, the blackness suddenly spread faster and the fairy dragon slowly disappeared in the air as countless specks of white light. With its disappearance, everything in the surroundings seemed to dim. The aura of nature rapidly declined.

Fengxiu sat down on the ground, as if he felt nothing about everything that had just happened. His face was pale, but extremely calm. Rings of black light began to appear in his surroundings and in just a short while, an invisible pressure expanded from his body once more. All of the plants in the surroundings began to shrivel up. This was a sign of their vitality being taken away.
