Chapter 256: Chapter 256: Death is Death

Below the thunderclouds, above the ruins.

"Break for me—"

Within the rolling pitch-black demonic aura, Red Boy’s roar was so shocking to the heart, as wisps of fierce flames escaped from the demonic aura. Then, more and more Samadhi Real Fire dispersed the demonic aura until the rolling Samadhi Real Fire completely replaced it.

The sky filled with firelight illuminated the entire royal city. Whether it was the monks hiding in the corners watching the battle or the common people trapped under the ruins, all were looking up at the sky, especially those in the ruins, who through the cracks could see the sun-like majestic might of Red Boy.

Red Boy, now completely engulfed in flames, seemed as if he had flown out of hell, thrusting his spear towards Elder An.

The Samadhi Real Fire stirred the rolling airflow, like kilometer-long Sea Dragons twisting in the sky, all tearing towards Elder An.

"Hmph!"

Elder An sneered, clapped his palms together, and a huge copper bracelet quickly blocked in front of him, spinning rapidly. The wind generated directly sucked in all the dust and Samadhi Real Fire, the most peculiar thing being that they didn’t penetrate the bracelet, as if there was an alternate dimension inside it.

The wild wind scraped the earth, and the Samadhi Real Fire on Red Boy grew smaller and smaller.

Qin Jun watched anxiously. Despite Red Boy being able to defeat Sun Wukong by stepping up in rank, that’s because Sun Wukong’s Fiery Eyes and Golden Pupils were afraid of smoke, let alone Samadhi Real Fire smoke. Muzha, weaker than Sun Wukong, could subdue Red Boy with a magical instrument. So naturally, Elder An could as well, and this copper bracelet was obviously not of a low grade.

Red Boy clearly had exerted his full strength, while Elder An still appeared calm and collected. The gap between the two was clear to anyone.

"System, how can I summon a God and Demon above the True Immortal Realm?"

Qin Jun was so anxious that he could only inquire the system again. Once a person died, everything was gone, and he couldn’t just watch Red Boy die in battle.

"Only by chance, host. You cannot fully control the system for the time being, and I, as the system’s consciousness, cannot either," the system hesitated in its response, making Qin Jun want to curse.

Currently, he had two opportunities to summon a God and Demon, which he could merge or use separately.

Qin Jun fell into a dilemma.

Meanwhile, Red Boy’s Samadhi Real Fire was being devoured more and more. Soon, Red Boy revealed his true form, looking as if he was exhausted. Even his ferocious expression had softened.

"I... must..."

Red Boy struggled to speak, but before he could finish, his body plummeted down.

This scene brought silence to the entire royal city.

With Red Boy defeated, on whom could they now rely?

Li Bai quickly flew to catch Red Boy.

Qin Jun stood there stunned. In his heart, Red Boy was an invincible existence, at least up until now. When he truly saw Red Boy defeated, even though he was mentally prepared, he couldn’t help but become lost.

If only he had chosen to ignore the beast tide from the Abyss Sect at the Bronze Pass and not fought for the Divine Beast, they might not have ended up like this.

It’s inevitable to feel lost in the face of desperation, even Evening Star, Sha Wujing, Li Bai, and Xu Guiku all hung their heads in bewilderment. Faced with the unfathomable Elder An, they couldn’t help but fall into despair.

"You petty kingdom’s nobles also dare to repeatedly obstruct our Abyss Sect!" Elder An spoke again. He wasn’t in a hurry to act because, in his eyes, Qin Jun and the others were already as good as dead. Tormenting their spirits before killing the prey was Elder An’s favorite thing.

"That is our Abyss Sect’s divine being. How could ants like you touch it?"

With Elder An’s words finished, the little Torch Dragon on Qin Jun’s shoulder flew towards him. The little Torch Dragon kept roaring and struggling, but its body refused to respond.

Qin Jun got angry. Over time, he had grown fond of the little Torch Dragon, how could he tolerate Elder An snatching it away?

Instantly, he jumped to catch the little Torch Dragon.

At that moment, Elder An’s eyes glanced at Qin Jun. Qin Jun only felt an invisible force pushing from all sides, and with a bang, he plummeted downwards.

He landed directly amidst the ruins, feeling as if half his bones were shattered. Trying to stand was impossible.

"God, come back!"

Elder An’s voice was filled with fanaticism, and despite Xiaozhulong’s resistance, it could only fly towards him.

Evening Star and the others watched, grinding their teeth in anger, Li Bai especially wanted to draw his sword and rush forward, but Evening Star stopped him. As for Xu Guiku, let alone raising his head, he didn’t even dare to do that.

"Master..."

Xiaozhulong turned its head to look at Qin Jun and called out softly, but the bloody light in its eyes sent chills down one’s spine, as if possessed by a demon.

Qin Jun watched in agony, struggling to stand up despite the pain, but could only watch helplessly as Xiaozhulong flew into the massive bronze bracelet and disappeared.

"No! System, summon! Summon directly!"

Qin Jun roared inwardly, wishing he could tear Elder An’s flesh and drink his blood!

Seeing Xiaozhulong’s helpless disappearance, Qin Jun no longer hesitated; rage was all that remained.

"Ding! Random summoning of God and Demon begins now..."

At that moment, Elder An looked at Qin Jun again and coldly said, "Qin Jun, do you regret it? Have you realized your own stupidity?"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for summoning Zhuge Liang..."

Damn!

What use was a strategist at this time!

Qin Jun’s eyes were bloodshot; where had all his previous good luck gone?

Only one chance for God and Demon summoning remained!

If he summoned a being below the True Immortal Realm again, he would truly be finished.

He didn’t believe Elder An would spare him.

Just then, two figures flew over, none other than Daji and Li.

"Your Highness!"

The moment Daji saw Qin Jun covered in blood, her eyes instantly welled up with tears, and she hurriedly flew towards him, as did Li.

Seeing their arrival, Qin Jun panicked and cursed, "What are you doing here? Get away!"

With Daji and Li from the Transforming Void Realm flying over, wouldn’t that just add to his troubles?

"No! I cannot leave you!"

Daji quickly arrived beside Qin Jun, propping him up and saying. She understood what this meant; even if she couldn’t help Qin Jun, she knew that if she left, Qin Jun would undoubtedly die.

Li didn’t say a word, her beautiful eyes fixed on him, filled with worry and pain.

The two women were among those who had accompanied Qin Jun the longest. Coming from different times and spaces, their meeting should have been impossible, but fate was so magical.

"If you stay, you will die."

Qin Jun lamented, feeling both moved and anxious.

"If I die, I die," Daji softly said, her eyes filled with tenderness and allure, as if the two were in a land of wine and roses.

"Brother Qin Jun, I want to accompany you until the end," Li said with a playful smile, as adorable as ever.

As the gale howled, with two beauties supporting him by his side, Qin Jun couldn’t help but smile bitterly. Such profound feelings were rare in his past life, yet faced with this affection, his heart was filled with helplessness and pain.

The gentler and more resolute Daji and Li were, the more his heart ached.

"Very well, I’ll let you watch your two women die first. Let you know what despair is and let the world know the consequences of offending the Abyss Sect!" Elder An’s voice thundered, becoming more impassioned as if he took perverse pleasure in seeing Qin Jun’s despair and pain.
