Chapter 443: 351 leaves_1

Zhuo Shan performed the spell, and the Qianyang Seal met the Zizhu Blade. He swung the huge yellow blade in his hand, and with a cross-cut, a massive wave of yellow blade light swept out, slashing towards the Nine-Headed Ghost Pigeon.

The black wings on his back gently flapped, and he vanished from where he stood.

Knowing he was outmatched, Zhuo Shan decided that retreat was the best strategy.

Two hundred miles away, a windstorm began in the void, and Zhuo Shan emerged.

A thunderous roar that could nearly deafen came from the sky; a thick silver thunder column streaked across the sky, aiming at Zhuo Shan.

Zhuo Shan’s expression changed, Shen Long had caught up so quickly.

He was about to cast a spell to defend himself when a piercing screech rang out by his ear, causing his head to buzz and feel slightly uncomfortable.

Zhuo Shan opened his mouth and emitted a wave of black sound, shattering the falling silver thunder column.

A gust of wind rose behind him, and Shen Long appeared, holding the Zyphyxial Blade.

He swung the blade down at Zhuo Shan, who quickly swung his huge yellow blade to meet it.

A "clang" of metal striking metal rang out, and Zhuo Shan’s body, like a kite with its string cut, plummeted rapidly towards the ground.

Thick green vines burst forth from the ground, entwining around Zhuo Shan’s body.

Zhuo Shan opened his mouth and spewed out a stream of black flames, which fell upon the green vines, instantly reducing them to nothingness.

A green light shone behind him, and a huge Green Fire Phoenix appeared and crashed into Zhuo Shan’s Protective Spirit Light.

A thunderous explosion sounded, and Zhuo Shan’s Protective Spirit Light dimmed, flickering as if it could shatter at any moment.

A violent wind swept by, and the Nine-Headed Ghost Pigeon inexplicably appeared behind Zhuo Shan. Its four heads each emitted a stream of blue glow, enveloping Zhuo Shan.

Zhuo Shan trembled, swinging the huge yellow blade at the Nine-Headed Ghost Pigeon.

The Nine-Headed Ghost Pigeon’s wings lightly flapped, and it too vanished from its spot.

The Soul Hooking Forbidden Light needed time to extract the divine souls of other beings, otherwise, the Nine-Headed Ghost Pigeon would be invincible.

A Void Fluctuation arose above Zhuo Shan’s head, and a giant red dragon’s claw appeared and struck his Protective Spirit Light, dimming it even further.

A streak of red light shot towards him, accurately hitting Zhuo Shan’s Protective Spirit Light, which instantly shattered.

Zhuo Shan reacted quickly, shielding his eyes with his left hand.

A yellow spear struck his body, making a dull sound as if it had hit a bronze wall or iron barrier.

Without the protection of the Protective Spirit Light, the green flames fell on Zhuo Shan’s body, eliciting a miserable scream as his whole body suffered unbearable stinging pain.

Shen Long swung his blade at Zhuo Shan, who quickly swung his blade to meet it.

The clashing blades produced a dull sound of metal impacting metal, and Zhuo Shan’s feet sank into the ground, his face turned crimson, and he spewed a large mouthful of Essence Blood.

From Zhuo Shan’s left sleeve flew nine glittering yellow flying blades which merged into one, forming a massive yellow blade, and slashed towards Shen Long.

Shen Long’s body gleamed red, and a multitude of Red Dragon Scales grew, protecting his whole body.

The huge yellow blade struck the Red Dragon Scales, causing a dull sound of metal impact, and a clear gash appeared on the surface of the scales, but Shen Long remained unharmed.

Shen Long let out a long howl and expelled a stream of red sound waves aimed directly at Zhuo Shan.

Zhuo Shan emitted a black sound wave to meet it.

The two sound waves collided, the black sound wave instantly dissipating, while the red sound wave swept past Zhuo Shan’s body. Zhuo Shan’s face twisted in pain, and it felt like his internal organs were going to shatter.

A long stinger burst from the ground, and Zhuo Shan felt a sting in his legs. Before he could react, the stinger retreated back into the ground.

Zhuo Shan opened his mouth again, spewing out a large mouthful of Essence Blood, his face paled, and with a ferocious expression, he said, "Even in death, I will take you down with me."

No sooner had he spoken than his body began to rapidly swell.

A sharp, ear-piercing screech sounded, Zhuo Shan’s body trembled, his spellcasting was disrupted, and his body returned to normal.

Shen Long vanished from where he stood and appeared, unexpectedly, in front of Zhuo Shan, swinging his blade at Zhuo Shan’s waist.

The Zyphyxial Blade swept across Zhuo Shan’s abdomen, slicing his body in two, blood spattering on the spot.

As the Nascent Soul just left the body, it rapidly expanded, and a silver-glowing Talisman descended from the sky, affixing to the Nascent Soul, whose gaze then grew dull.

"You won’t find self-destruction so easy."

Shen Long said with a cold laugh, seizing the Nascent Soul and conducting a Soul Search.

"Demon Race! Golden Crow True Monarch!"

Shen Long’s brow furrowed.

The last thing he wanted had happened, the demon was dead, its remnant soul had possessed the Golden Crow True Monarch, and that being managed to kill two Nascent Soul Cultivators in a short time. This person’s Divine Skills were very strong.

Shen Long waved his hand, and a yellow Storage Bracelet flew towards him, landing in his palm.

Zhuo Shan had no shortage of good things on him, eight types of materials for refining Spiritual Treasures, and two Spiritual Treasures themselves, one of which was the Qianyang Seal.

The Human Clan and the Barbarian Tribe were at great war; Zhuo Shan had fought fiercely with the human experts, damaging two Spiritual Treasures, otherwise he would have had more treasures on him.

Shen Long recalled the Nine-Headed Ghost Pigeon and the others back into the Spirit Beast Bracelet, and with a light flutter of the golden wings on his back, he vanished from the spot.

In the Seven Stars Palace, humanoid statues sat motionless.

After a while, Shen Long walked in, his expression solemn.

"The demon is dead, but his remnant soul has seized a Nascent Soul Cultivator, killed two Nascent Soul Cultivators, and has escaped from his cell."

As he spoke, Shen Long took out a red Crystal Ball, infused a spell, and the Crystal Ball shone with a blinding Spiritual Light. A streak of red light flew out, transforming into an image, showing a vast square and a humanoid corpse.

A Green Fire Phoenix struck the corpse, burning it to ashes without a trace left.

He rushed to the place where the demon was confined at the fastest speed, burnt the demon’s corpse with fourth-order Spirit Flame, and recorded the scene with the Echo Crystal for the Seven Stars True Monarch to examine.

"I will transport you away now! Soon, this place will turn into nothingness, and all creatures here will be obliterated."

The humanoid statue spoke.

"If I don’t come back, will this place still turn into nothingness?"

Shen Long asked with a frown.

"Correct, once someone finds the Seven Stars Palace and converses with me, the prohibition will be triggered, beginning the countdown to destruction. This was the last resort I left behind, in the hope that it would be timely and prevent his escape."

The humanoid statue explained.

"Senior, why didn’t you annihilate him in the first place with so many precautions set?"

Shen Long asked, puzzled.

"That’s not for you to know. This Jade Slip contains records of his Divine Skills and origins. If he escapes, having this knowledge might help you stop him from harming the world. It would be best to eliminate him."

The humanoid statue opened its mouth, a silver Jade Slip flew out, heading straight for Shen Long.

Shen Long’s Divine Sense fully activated, carefully scanning for any abnormalities. He exhaled a breath of green flame, wrapping around the silver Jade Slip, detecting nothing unusual, and only then did he catch it.

The humanoid statue began to shake violently, shifting to the left, revealing a Transference Array about a zhang in size.

"Come quickly, I will send you out, we must destroy this place immediately."

The statue urged.

Shen Long applied a layer of defense to himself and stepped onto the Transference Array.

The Transference Array lit up with a blinding Spiritual Light, a beam of light shot into the sky, engulfing Shen Long’s figure.

As the Spiritual Light dissipated, Shen Long was gone.

The entire ruin began to shake violently, large cracks appeared on the ground, like an earthquake, and the void cracked extensively.

In a vast blue sea area, a Spiritual Light appeared out of the void, and Shen Long materialized out of nowhere.

His Divine Sense unfolded widely, detecting no abnormalities, and at last, he breathed a sigh of relief.
