Chapter 1656 Emperor Crimson Blood
This kind of despair and suffocation, even Loki before Him would seem like a native deity who only knew petty tricks.
Wuquan slowly stood up, looking down at Lin Qiye and speaking leisurely:
“There aren’t many people who can make me take action twice, you’re the only human. Unfortunately, you won’t have the chance to use these little tricks again…”
“Little tricks?” Crimson blood seeped from the corner of Lin Qiye’s mouth as he coughed and slowly got up from the ground, coldly smiling, “If they were really just little tricks… then why would the [Key of the Door] specifically send you from two thousand years ago?
The [Key of the Door] noticed me, and you were willing to cut off one of your fingers to come back and kill me… This means that what I’m about to do in this era will threaten you… isn’t that right?
You all… are afraid of me?”
“Afraid?” Wuquan laughed coldly, “You think too highly of yourself, Lin Qiye. I admit there are some remarkable things about you… but so what? Last time I couldn’t kill you, but this time… can that one come out to help you again?”
With a lift of his fingertip, the Kusanagi sword suddenly pulled out from behind Lin Qiye, spinning half a circle in the air before slashing across his chest. A hideous bloody gash extended from his collarbone all the way down to his lower abdomen, nearly splitting him in half!
Lin Qiye’s expression twisted in agony as blood splattered frantically on the ground. Despite suffering two fatal wounds, he still gritted his teeth and stood firm on the earth, his eyes fixed on Wuquan before him. With an angry roar, he clenched his right fist and threw a powerful punch!
Bang—!!
Wuquan’s head was shattered by his punch, blood mixed with some white matter splattered all over Lin Qiye, blending with his own blood, making him look like a blood statue.
The headless Wuquan fell to the ground with a thud, and moments later, transformed into a willow branch covered with eyeballs. A black severed finger floated in midair, not having been smashed along with the rest, eerily strange amidst the swirling phantasmal smoke.
The fingertip split open automatically, as if growing a mouth, and [Chaos]’s voice sounded again:
“Die by your own sword… Lin Qiye.”
As the words fell, the Kusanagi sword whistled through the smoke. With a flash of sword light, Lin Qiye’s neck was cleanly severed, his head slowly rolling to the ground, his angry eyes still staring fixedly at that black severed finger.
At this moment, that strong and powerful heart finally slowly stopped beating…
One sword through the heart, one sword splitting the body, one sword beheading.
Even the Primordial Spirit Embryo could not withstand the three killing blows delivered by the Kusanagi sword. The black severed finger hovered silently in the air for a moment, confirming that Lin Qiye was completely dead before transforming into a streak of light and disappearing into the distance.
In the rolling phantasmal smoke, a bloody corpse lay motionless on the ground.
Sizzle—
Vaguely, a pale green progress bar flashed above the corpse, instantly disappearing.
“Lin Qiye healing progress: 49%”
…
Outside Chang’an City.
A rolling fire dragon roared as it devoured half the city wall, the surging flames dyeing the entire sky crimson. A cold glint shot out from the flames as two spears collided without flourish!
Dazzling sparks erupted under the night sky. As Armored Huo Qubing stomped the ground fiercely, his second spear thrust instantly toward the other’s throat!
Clang—!!
Robed Huo Qubing swung his spear to block the strike, but the terrifying force transmitted through the shaft tore one side of his robe to pieces!
Robed Huo Qubing groaned, staggering back several steps. Looking down, he saw that the robe made from the Black Flag was already in tatters. On the side of his body, a hideous sword wound was frighteningly visible. As the Black Flag tore apart, blood gushed out uncontrollably.
“It seems your wounds are worse than mine. Even though you temporarily sealed them with the Black Dragon Flag, your movements are still affected,” said Armored Huo Qubing, holding his spear with one hand as he slowly approached. “That wound… was left by Yu Wu, wasn’t it? What did you do to him?”
Robed Huo Qubing didn’t respond. He glanced at the approaching phantasmal smoke in the distance, took a deep breath, and directly tore off the remaining Black Flag fragments still hanging around his wound.
His young body, covered in scars, was exposed to the air—hideous yet proportionate, like a work of art escaped from death’s hands. Huo Qubing held his spear with one hand, his back straight as a pillar. As a gleam of light ignited in his pupils, violent gusts of wind suddenly erupted from within his body in all directions!
Sand and gravel were propelled outward like shotgun pellets in this gale. The wind swept across the land, and Gongyang Wan, losing her balance, was blasted back dozens of meters!
She staggered to stabilize herself on the ground, her eyes filled with shock as she looked at Robed Huo Qubing!
“This aura… damn it, how can even a fake be so powerful?!”
Robed Huo Qubing’s form floated up from the ground as the terrifying power of domination flowed back into his body, precisely attaching to every corner of his being. Under his deliberate control, his body began to emit a crimson glow, and his aura climbed at an alarming rate!
The thick cloud layer beneath the red star seemed stirred by an invisible hand. A massive vortex slowly rotated above him, with hideous lightning dancing between the clouds, emitting dragon-like roars.
“That is [Emperor’s Crimson Blood],” Armored Huo Qubing said slowly, staring at the terrifying figure in the sky. “Through the precise control of [Emperor’s Domination], he perfectly dominates his own muscles, blood vessels, and nerves, breaking the limits of his physical body to the maximum extent, erupting with multiplied battle power in an extremely short time… The price, however, is greatly shortened remaining lifespan, possibly even immediate death.
This usage method exists only in my mind. I never expected he would dare to put it into practice.”
Gongyang Wan raised an eyebrow. “Though he’s a fake, his courage is indeed surprising… What do you plan to do?”
“He’s using [Emperor’s Crimson Blood]. If I don’t use it too, I won’t last a few moves against him… He’s forcing me to perish together with him.” Armored Huo Qubing coldly stared at Robed Huo Qubing in the sky, his hand gripping the spear shaft suddenly tightening!
Boom—!!
An equally violent gust of wind erupted as Armored Huo Qubing’s eyes were tinged with a layer of light, and his entire aura climbed rapidly along with Robed Huo Qubing’s!
“He wants a fight to the death with me… I shall grant his wish.” Armored Huo Qubing spoke calmly. The next moment, his form transformed into a streak of light shooting into the clouds. The rolling lightning tore the entire sky into two halves.
Dark clouds churned and lightning flashed like a forest as the two “Emperors” rushed toward each other above Chang’an City, the shock waves visibly sweeping across the sky!
