Chapter 432 - 428: The Dark Great Hand

Chapter 432: Chapter 428: The Dark Great Hand

The arrow shot by Prince South Emperor was extremely terrifying, a dangerous aura swept over Xiao Ye’s entire body.

After the bowstring of Prince South Emperor was released, a splendidly luminous Divine Arrow pierced through the void, causing the sound of wind and thunder to reverberate, a terrifying aura pervaded, an immense suppression boundless and unmatched, even materializing golden Jiao Dragons in mid-air that roared towards the sky, pouncing towards Xiao Ye with divine might like a prison.

Xiao Ye couldn’t help but be moved. What Prince South Emperor displayed was undoubtedly a powerful set of Arrow Techniques, the might extremely terrifying, it seemed that Prince South Emperor had already premeditated this upon entering the Ancient Battlefield.

This time, both in momentum and strength, it surpassed the past, striking awe in the hearts of people.

However, ultimately, Prince South Emperor had not yet displayed the true power of the Quasi-King Sky-breaking Bow.

"Hmph, even if you are a descendant of an Emperor Realm Expert, you can’t change the fact that you’re merely an inferior person, today I, Xiao Ye, under Senior Tian Yi’s command, shall kill you!"

Xiao Ye gave a cold smile, suddenly a terrifying killing intent erupted from him, boundless blood waves churned, swirling upwards to the Nine Heavens, and above his head transformed into two huge Slaughter Lotuses, one real and one virtual.

Boom!

Xiao Ye stepped on the ground, actually breaking through the special prohibition of the Third Zone, his body soared up three meters high, his long hair turning blood-red, even his pupils blasting out blood lights, interweaving into dazzling Divine Light.

"Death Slash!"

In a flash, Xiao Ye roared loudly, his whole person radiating boundless dark red golden light, transforming into a Supreme Divine Blade, using his Physical Body to replace the Void Artifact.

Instantly, the Third Level Slaughter Principle condensed around him, and transformed into a black hole, continuously generating an immense Deprivation Force, enveloping the entire body of Prince South Emperor, causing his body to shudder, his face finally showing horror.

"What kind of Saber Technique is this?"

Caught off guard, Prince South Emperor felt as if the traces of years were engraved on his body and mind, about two percent of the vitality and strength within his body had been deprived, converging into Xiao Ye’s Sword Light, luckily he discovered it in time, otherwise even more would have been stripped away.

Boom!

At this moment, Xiao Ye’s momentum had climbed to an astonishing level, myriads of blood waves rolling, a mighty suppression enveloping everyone within, even Prince Donghuang and others felt their hearts palpitate.

They knew very well, Xiao Ye knew a set of Ninth Grade Battle Techniques, but the power was never this strong.

Actually, last time Xiao Ye accidentally stepped into the Martial Arts Extreme Realm, not only did his Eighth Grade Battle Techniques reach the Perfection Level, but he also gained a deeper understanding of the Ancient Nine-grade Combat Skills, Death Slash, now showing its essence directly, its power shocking and moving the earth.

Rumbling!

Xiao Ye shot out, the radiant arrow light of Prince South Emperor, the golden Divine Dragons all torn and shattered by the Sword Light, raising a deafening explosion, powerful to the point that nothing could obstruct it.

Puchi!

Like a deity in a painting, Prince South Emperor retreated explosively, his white robe shattered, crashing heavily into a large mountain, leaving blossoms of blood in mid-air, grievously injured by Xiao Ye’s Death Slash.

Prince Donghuang was stunned, his face in disbelief as he looked at Xiao Ye and muttered: "Isn’t this too powerful? Brother Xiao is so strong it doesn’t seem human."

"Martial Arts Extreme Realm is indeed profound and unfathomable, after stepping into it, although there is no slight increase in cultivation and strength, the body and mind are baptized by the supreme deep meaning of Martial Arts, pointing directly at the essence of Martial Arts, now Brother Xiao has undergone a transformation, I am no longer his match," Tong Zhan said feelingly.

"Brother Donghuang, we should not be careless, Prince South Emperor can create a Virtual External Embodiment, let’s block for Xiao Ye, to prevent Prince South Emperor from escaping again," Nangong Xingyu spoke up.

"Right!" Realizing this, Prince Donghuang immediately perked up, his back raising a Grotto Heaven, along with Nangong Xingyu blocking the surrounding void.

Swoosh!

Xiao Ye broke through the prohibition of the Third Zone, stepping through the void, his bloody hair dancing with the wind, like a Death God descending into the world, his emitted force making people kneel.

"Prince South Emperor, you are a descendant of an Emperor Realm expert, I know you definitely have life-saving measures, let’s display them together," Xiao Ye said with hands behind his back, staring at the collapsed ruins.

"Cough cough!"

A bout of coughing sounded, Prince South Emperor walked out from the pervasive dust, his white robe torn, soaked with fresh blood, even his chest had a big hole, bone visible, fresh blood continuously flowing out.

"It’s always been me, Prince South Emperor, who pushes others to desperate situations, never thought that one day, I would also face desperation, why would I rely on external forces to escape?" Even severely injured, Prince South Emperor still maintained a composed demeanor, the smile on his face refreshing like a spring breeze.

"Stop the nonsense, without life-saving measures, today is the day you fall, being buried in this Third Zone, which has buried Ancient Geniuses, fits the theme," Xiao Ye coldly interrupted Prince South Emperor’s words, each time after using the Slaughter Principle, his body filled with cold murderous intent, only killing could calm him, even if the opponent was an Emperor Realm Expert he would still kill!

"Xiao Ye, I admit your strength is very great, but I, Prince South Emperor, having perused ancient scriptures from a young age and cultivated many secret techniques, you are still a bit lacking if you want to kill me," Prince South Emperor softly said, causing Xiao Ye’s heart to skip a beat.

Could it be that the South Emperor’s Prince has some special means to escape death?

"Regardless of what you say, today you must die!" Xiao Ye roared, pressing towards the South Emperor’s Prince.

"I am willing to sacrifice half of my lifespan to beseech the ancient great powers within the Ancient Battlefield, to aid me in escaping this calamity."

Facing the killing aura of Xiao Ye, the South Emperor’s Prince’s expression calmed down, then he brought his hands together and recited a complex and obscure scripture, his body glowing as a mass of essence continuously gathered towards the void around him, as if communicating with the Netherworld.

In the next moment, all the Ancient Geniuses in the Third Zone turned into dust, even Tong Zhan had a weakening aura, knelt on the ground, screamed in pain with dense black smoke rising from his body and entering into the sky, forming a dark cloud layer.

In an instant, the entire Ancient Battlefield shook, the sky changed color as a fierce wind arose, and a vast amount of dark clouds gathered, with intense lightning flashing as if a supreme ferocious person was awakening, intending to sweep everything restrictive and manifest into the world, causing the heavens to shatter.

"This..." Xiao Ye’s heart pounded as he withdrew the Slaughter Principle and looked up.

In the shattered heavens, sections of phantoms appeared, portraying an enormous Divine Mountain covered in rainbow light, its divine power immeasurable, overlooking hundreds of millions of miles of mountains and rivers, worshipped by all creatures.

One after another, Heavenly Pride with extraordinary spirit, holding weapons, walked through the air, defeating all adversaries along the way to ascend the Divine Mountain.

It was like thousands of troops crossing a single-log bridge, out of ten only one could climb the mountain path, but still, they were wiped out by a massive hand halfway through.

It was too tragic!

Rain of blood fell in the scene; numerous Young Talents screamed as their bodies exploded in mid-air, some killed by opponents, others struck down by backstabbing.

That was a dark era of rare geniuses and collapsing Martial Arts, countless Young Talents died.

"This..." Suddenly, Xiao Ye widened his eyes because he saw a familiar figure among the phantoms.

That was a young man in a blue robe, holding a spear, with an unrivaled sharp aura soaring skyward, the face exactly matched Tong Zhan.

But similarly, he bathed in fresh blood and killed a hundred opponents, charging to the forefront among thousands of troops, ascending the mountain path, aiming for the Martial Arts Holy Land in his heart but was stabbed by thousands of golden lights, screaming as blood fell, becoming a bloody man lying on the mountain path, turning into a stepping stone for others.

"This is the scene from over 8000 years ago, when the Ultimate Palace slaughtered all Heavenly Pride!" Xiao Ye turned pale, indescribably shocked.

South Emperor’s Prince, what exactly did he do!

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" Xiao Ye didn’t know what was going to happen, but his intuition told him that if he didn’t kill the South Emperor’s Prince now, he himself might be in danger.

Swish!

Xiao Ye executed the Death Slash, transforming into the Supreme Divine Blade, bursting forth towards the South Emperor’s Prince.

"Young one, I accept your sacrifice to help you escape this calamity," just then, a deep, suppressing voice as if coming from the Nine Nether sounded, echoing in the void.

Following that, the void trembled, and the black smoke emanating from many Ancient Geniuses materialized into a colossal black shadow in mid-air, exuding a sinister and terrifying aura, as if coming from Hell, sending shivers down one’s spine.

Seeing this, the South Emperor’s Prince showed a relaxed smile, his body powerlessly sitting on the ground. This secret technique was extremely terrifying, requiring half of his life to succeed.

"Xiao Ye, since time immemorial, countless Heavenly Prides have been killed by it, dying by its hands, you can consider it an honor," the South Emperor’s Prince whispered to himself.

"Ah!" Tong Zhan, kneeling on the ground, seeing this colossal black shadow, awoke a deep-seated fear in his heart, and screamed out loud.

Boom!

Following that, this colossal shadow stretched out a giant palm towards Xiao Ye, pressing down like a towering mountain, with an overwhelming force that even before nearing pushed Xiao Ye into a great crisis.

"No!"

Xiao Ye was terrified, this giant hand, and the black hand from the Ultimate Palace that wiped out the world’s Supreme Geniuses in the heavenly images, were exactly the same; even the Iron Blood Emperor in his youth was severely injured by this hand, and now it was coming to wipe him out!

"I will survive and enter Central State!"

"I must become a Great Emperor, I absolutely cannot die here!"

Xiao Ye roared, his face unwilling, although he harbored deep resentment towards the South Emperor’s Prince, he was forced to withdraw his attack, channeling all his strength to its peak in order to withstand this strike from the giant hand.

Boom!

The gigantic hand, carrying the might to sever all hope, pressed down towards Xiao Ye.
