Chapter 40
There was a saying, “There cannot be two suns in the sky.”
However, in front of everyone, there were two suns. Apart from the real sun, there was actually an additional radiating and blazing sun that had appeared.
The surface of this sun was constantly blazing with golden flames, and the interior was constantly collapsing and reforming. It exhibited an extremely violent outlook and was burning intensely; at the same time, it also contained forceful power.
It was extremely hot, forceful, and large!
Wherever the sun enveloped, there was charred land, and everything below was chapping. The air was so scorchingly hot that burning sensations could be felt when breathing through the mouth and nose.
The light rays were all distorted, and there was a slight mirage. Everyone could barely look up, and due to the dazzling golden radiance, they were no longer able to see the Six Dragons Sovereign Carriage clearly.
However, even under the illumination of the golden sun, there was a figure that was faintly visible. That figure was also pure gold in color and seemed to be even more dazzling than the blazing sun.
“Great Sun Monarch Body!”
Plenty of people already recognized that Cult Master Chen Luoyang was using one of the Demon Cult’s six unrivaled absolute arts, the Great Sun Monarch Art. There was an extremely high-level ability that was part of this art called the Great Sun Monarch Body. The cultivator could transform into the Great Sun Monarch and rule the land with extreme yang and with force. A lift of the hand would feel as though the great sun had descended, and it had limitless power.
With the support from the Great Sun Monarch Body, when executing all of the martial arts in the Great Sun Monarch Art, all the power would increase exponentially.
Chen Luoyang was currently raising his hand and forming a fist. The intent from this blazing fist had instantly manifested into a golden sun that was over a hundred meters in size. With the sun suspended in the sky, it was like a god had descended, and it felt extremely overbearing.
However, everyone was actually feeling even more suspicious right now. It wasn’t surprising for the Demon Cult Master to cultivate the Demon Cult’s unrivaled absolute art, the Great Sun Monarch Art, to the highest level, but he obviously had the stronger Heaven Demon Blood and the Great Heaven Demon Hand to use. Why would he forsake them and use the Great Sun Monarch Art?
He might be underestimating the Black Emperor Xiuzhe, but everyone knew that when Xiuzhe crossed moves with the Demon Sovereign back then, he had already proven that his Edict of Black Death wasn’t afraid of the blazing heat. The Great Sun Monarch Art wasn’t able to deal with his Edict of Black Death, but Xiuzhe was ultimately defeated by the Heaven Demon Blood and Great Heaven Demon Hand.
Was the Demon Cult Master overconfident in his superior cultivation realm and wished to suppress Xiuzhe with his greater power? The force exhibited right now might be formidable, but it didn’t seem to be stronger than the Black Emperor. Xiuzhe was the only person to look straight at the golden sun with unprecedentedly sharp eyes.
He knows? How is that possible? He picked the Thousand Tides Mountain because of this?
Xiuzhe was extremely shocked. However, the situation didn’t allow him to reconsider.
Chen Luoyang who was now the Great Sun Monarch had raised his fist and smashed down ruthlessly!
That golden sun had also descended from the sky and smashed into the ground! It was targeting Xiuzhe and his Black God of Death.
The Black God of Death that was already flying up was now going to collide with the pure golden sun that was smashing down. The two parties had an intense confrontation in midair.
However, something happened that was out of everyone’s expectation. The imposing and apocalyptic Black God of Death… was abruptly smashed by the golden sun!
Streaks of pure golden flames had burst out and penetrated into the Black God of Death. Subsequently, it exploded!
The golden flames had burst the Black God of Death open from within. It had incinerated all the black qi and turned them into black smoke. After smashing the Black God of Death, the golden sun didn’t stop as it continued descending to press down on Black Emperor Xiuzhe.
Xiuzhe took a deep breath. When the materialized form of the black god was shattered, he had also suffered a backlash. Due to losing out in this move, Xiuzhe had lost the decisive opportunity.
The power of the golden sun was too immense. The air in the surroundings was already warping and had formed a massive suction force that gathered everything from the surroundings.
Xiuzhe felt that his body was involuntarily trying to go over. In such a moment, it was already too late to evade, and Xiuzhe could only endure it forcefully.
He lifted both his hands to withstand the pure golden sun that was pressing down, while the golden flames were constantly eroding his body. When attacked by the golden flames, Xiuzhe’s Black Death Evil Force wasn’t useful at all, and he was simply suppressed.
Chen Luoyang had launched a powerful attack, but it wasn’t able to penetrate the final defenses. After the golden sun destroyed the Black God of Death and injured Xiuzhe, all of the golden sun’s strength had been used up, and it wasn’t able to continue.
However, Xiuzhe wasn’t happy at all. The horrific descending force of the golden sun had caused the ground below Xiuzhe’s feet to collapse and crumble.
Earlier on, Xiuzhe had forcefully buried the Thousand Tides Mountain to extinguish the volcano and suppress the lava under the ground. Right now, the ground below had been shattered, and all the coal-seam fire that was suppressed was now erupting again!
Xiuzhe was then smashed into the sea of lava along with the golden sun!
The golden flames dispersed, but the coal-seam fire erupted again.
Due to the isolation from the shattered cliffs and debris, Xiuzhe’s weakness wasn’t exposed yet. Now that Xiuzhe was in contact with the coal-seam fire, his Black Death Evil Force wasn’t able to resist at all.
When burned by the coal-seam fire, the ink-like black mist was rapidly dispersing. Xiuzhe’s body then caught on fire; his pure-black overcoat was transformed into a ball of flames. When engulfed by the lava, Xiuzhe’s injuries were getting worse, and his cultivation technique was getting weaker. It was as if he had sunk into quicksand and was unable to rescue himself.
From far away, both parties were stunned by this scene and were simply stupefied.
One move! It took only one move!
The Demon Sovereign defeated the Black Emperor again!
Black Emperor Xiuzhe who challenged the Demon Sovereign with overwhelming prowess had lost again! Furthermore, he had lost in a much more miserable manner than the previous time.
During the previous battle, the two had gone through an intense battle before Xiuzhe was defeated. Now that Xiuzhe’s cultivation had improved greatly, he wanted to make a comeback and take his revenge.
Who would have expected for him to lose even more miserably?!
Instead of being humiliated, it was more like a baffling defeat.
The Demon Cult Master couldn’t be said to have exerted his full strength… He didn’t even use any strength!
“How can this happen?!” Xiuzhe’s subordinate, Murong Xing, had transformed from a golden eagle into a wooden chicken as he lifelessly said, “Since our King reached the completion state for the Edict of Black Death, he shouldn’t be afraid of any blazing flames. Right now, his strength is even greater, and he has even self-created the 11th level of the Edict of Black Death. He has reached an unprecedented level. How…?”
Murong Xing suddenly stopped talking.
“Ghost Sword” Guo Ninglong said in a deep voice, “I’m afraid that the problem is due to our King reaching the 11th level of the Edict of Black Death. The creation of our King isn’t that comprehensive yet.”
Xiuzhe’s strength might have improved greatly, but as compared to before, he became afraid of blazing flames. It might only be temporary, and Xiuzhe could slowly figure it out in the future, to cover this flaw. However, Xiuzhe had to overcome this calamity first.
Inside the sea of lava, Xiuzhe was struggling to hold on. Above him, the blazing golden sun was gradually dispersing, and the Six Dragons Sovereign Carriage had reappeared in everyone’s vision again. Chen Luoyang was still standing quietly by the window and didn’t move at all.
Everyone felt a chill in their hearts, while Chen Luoyang was quietly looking at the raging lava below. When his eyes shifted onto Xiuzhe, he didn’t have a pleased expression nor any satisfaction; he wasn’t proud of his achievement. There was only a trace of disappointment.
“Too weak.” Chen Luoyang shook his head. “I blame myself for overestimating you.”
