Chapter 224: Chapter 224: You are Not My Match

From an ancient Demonic Dynasty?

Qin Jun’s sword eyebrows furrowed tightly together. Could it be that the soul of antiquity spoke of the Saint Court as the name of that Demonic Dynasty?

As Qin Jun was lost in wild thoughts, the soul of antiquity flickered and changed, quickly transforming from a face into a human figure, but its true face was still unclear, like a shadow. However, its aura became more substantial. Although it no longer had the overwhelming presence as before, any cultivator who placed their Divine Consciousness upon it would feel a chill to their bone.

Qin Jun quietly asked Red Boy beside him, "Do you have any confidence in defeating it?"

Red Boy tilted his head, pondering before saying, "I’m not sure. I feel that my Samadhi Real Fire might not work on it."

Upon hearing this, Qin Jun felt a pang of anxiety. If even Red Boy couldn’t subdue the soul of antiquity, then what was he to do?

Damn it!

How could such a tiny kingdom hide such a formidable being? I won’t accept this!

Why is fate treating me this way!

Qin Jun was filled with grief and indignation, but he did not reveal his inner turmoil on the surface. After all, the likes of Li Yuanba had yet to panic, and as their lord, it was natural for him not to fall into disarray first.

"Where is this place... and who am I..."

The soul of antiquity looked around in bewilderment, completely ignoring Qin Jun and the others.

Qin Jun was speechless. Had this fellow become dumb from sleeping for too long?

Then, Emperor Canglan actually egged on what seemed like a suicidal urging, "Quickly kill them!"

The fool had already forgotten how his son had died...

Fortunately, the soul of antiquity paid no attention to him but instead turned its gaze to Qin Jun.

"The wheel of fate... why is it with... you..."

The soul of antiquity watched Qin Jun with a profound gaze, and unexpectedly, a pair of eyes appeared on the face that was previously indistinguishable. They were eerie eyes, each with double pupils stacked upon one another, giving those who looked into them a hair-raising sensation.

The wheel of fate?

Qin Jun wondered silently to himself. Red Boy and Roaring Sky Dog quickly stood in front of him as a precaution against any sudden attack from the soul of antiquity.

"Your Highness, fear not! Yuanba is here!"

Li Yuanba suddenly bellowed, immediately brandishing the divine hammer and striking towards the soul of antiquity. The immense hammer, weighing thousands of jin, cleaved through the air, breaking the silence with a sonic boom.

Facing Li Yuanba’s assault, the soul of antiquity swung its hand fiercely. Just as it was about to collide with Li Yuanba, he felt an unstoppable force meeting him head-on. Immediately afterwards, his body involuntarily flew out of control.

Boom—

Li Yuanba was instantly flung hundreds of meters away, crashing through a succession of crumbling ruins, vanishing without a trace.

Qin Jun was left with his mouth agape. Wasn’t this power off the charts?

Li Yuanba, an Earth Immortal Realm powerhouse, was just flipped over with a single slap, as easily as swatting a fly. Not only Qin Jun, but Sha Wujing, Li Bai, and Roaring Sky Dog, too, looked on with gloomy faces. However, Red Boy remained expressionless. His lack of playfulness indicated his mood was also quite somber.

Red Boy, at the eighth level of the True Immortal Realm, could see more, perceive more. The more he knew, the heavier the pressure he felt.

Crack—

Red Boy waved his hand, and the Eight-Foot Fire-Tipped Spear appeared. His True Immortal Realm aura burst forth violently, and the ruins below were scattered away, as if swept by a fierce gale. The ground fractured and clouds of dust carrying fragments of tiles and broken wood spread in all directions, creating an incredibly spectacular and chaotic scene. The once prosperous Canglan Kingdom lay in ruin in an instant.

Even Qin Jun, who was given special attention by Red Boy, felt the terror of the True Immortal Realm’s aura.

With a single explosion, it was as though heaven and earth had shattered!

Sha Wujing and the others also watched Red Boy in fear. It should be noted that Red Boy had not unleashed his full aura even when battling the ancient lamp. Even Sha Wujing, who was at the ninth level of the Immortal Realm, felt like a solitary boat in the midst of a tempest.

Red Boy’s hair turned into fierce flames, his eyes filled with Samadhi Real Fire. From his mouth and nose, he breathed out heat, as if possessed by the god of fire.

"So what if it’s an ancient demon, take this spear from your little master!"

Red Boy bellowed and charged at the spirit of the ancient with his Eight-Foot Fire-Tipped Spear.

The ancient demon!

Upon hearing this, Qin Jun and the others shivered all over.

Emperor Canglan, buried in the ruins, almost fainted from fear. He hadn’t expected that the ancestral magical instrument truly concealed a demon. If it was a demon, they would all be dead, and it could even threaten the entire Southern Domain.

While everyone was in shock, Red Boy’s spear pierced through the spirit of the ancient, but the smoke-like spirit quickly resumed its initial form, showing no sign of injury.

Red Boy frowned slightly and turned around to spew Samadhi Real Fire, engulfing the spirit of the ancient instantaneously. The sky-scraping flames forced everyone to retreat, fearing they might be caught in unintended harm.

The Samadhi Real Fire, spreading across the entire sky of Canglan Kingdom’s capital with a burning fury, could be seen even by the Dragonrise army that had not yet entered the city.

"What is that?"

"It’s the fire of the Sage Infant King!"

"The Sage Infant King? Is that the strongest monster under Qin Jun’s command?"

"Yeah, he unleashed such a sea of fire in the capital of the Nanzhuo Dynasty too, it covered the sky and blocked out the sun!"

"It’s over, the Sage Infant King has taken action, our Canglan Kingdom is truly finished..."

In the capital city of Canglan, civilians and cultivators were talking frantically, and panic started spreading throughout the city.

Outside the city, on the Life Machine chariot, Evening Star’s face was grave as he said, "Red Boy has been forced to make a move, it seems our enemy is very strong."

Daji, Li, Zhu Yanqing, Fa Hai, Zhang Jue, Chen Qingzhi, and others were also nervously looking at the sky over Canglan Kingdom’s capital, now covered by Samadhi Real Fire.

Before this, they could never have imagined encountering such a formidable enemy in Canglan Kingdom; even the Nanzhuo Dynasty had been breached by them. If they fell in Canglan Kingdom, it would be a massive disgrace.

...

Boom!

The spirit of the ancient, wrapped in Samadhi Real Fire, suddenly flung its arms and broke through the flames enveloping it, leaving Red Boy stunned. He had not expected his trump card to be broken by the spirit of the ancient so easily.

Unafraid, Red Boy once again brandished his Eight-Foot Fire-Tipped Spear and charged at the spirit of the ancient.

"Hold on!"

The spirit of the ancient suddenly spoke in a deep voice, causing Red Boy to halt and look at it in astonishment.

Qin Jun was anxious, Why are you wasting words with it? Villains die from talking too much!

"You are not my match," the spirit of the ancient said, infuriating Red Boy.

Damn!

I thought you had something important to say!

Just when Red Boy was about to act, the spirit of the ancient vanished from its spot, causing him to narrow his eyes in shock.

Qin Jun frowned, Where did it suddenly go?

Immediately after, he felt a chill on the back of his neck and instinctively turned around, nearly jumping out of his skin.

He saw the spirit of the ancient appear right behind him, mere inches apart, their eyes meeting. Goosebumps rose all over Qin Jun, and Roaring Sky Dog, wanting to protect him, was horrified to discover it couldn’t move.

"It’s over..."

Qin Jun thought despairingly as Red Boy, Wujing, and Li Bai behind him all widened their eyes and rushed toward him.

In a flash, the spirit of the ancient suddenly reached out its right hand and grabbed Qin Jun’s shoulder, causing Red Boy and the others to stop in midair, not daring to proceed.
