Chapter 800.1 - Weakness, A Critical Weakness
Chapter 800.1 [Weakness, A Critical Weakness]
That Central Palace Hall guard who was pierced by his companion’s halberd, immediately blew himself up.
Blood exploded all over the sky.
The shock wave shook the entire earth… In the area of the blast, Lord Ling Yun, whose body was blown up and bruised all over, escaped from the aftermath of the blast in great pain. He, who was a Heaven Rank 5, surprisingly had trouble resisting the self-destruction of a Heaven Rank 3 guard… These temple guards all had a special ability which was to explosively raise their strength to over a hundred times for a short period of time. Of course, the price for such a forceful boost was death!
The Palace Hall guards whose strength had increased by a hundredfold were not much weaker compared to Lord Ling Yun and the others
A hundredfold increase in battle strength, coupled with the addition of their own special armor and their concentrated cultivation of battle skills, the three factors superimposed on each other and the resulting self-destructing power was already far beyond the maximum tolerance range of an expert at the level of Lord Ling Yun.
The fact that Lord Ling Yun was still able to escape from the center of the explosion was in itself very rare.
As he prepared to flee to his companions, hoping to obtain assistance.
The other Palace Hall guards reacted even faster than the leaders of the three main battle groups… two Palace Hall guards, including the previous one who had pierced the body of Lord Ling Yun with his halberd seemed to have known that Lord Ling Yun would be able to escape, before he had completely burst out of the explosion range, they had already rushed over.
One from the left and one from the right.
Hugging the left and right legs of Lord Ling Yun.
Both of their hands had a special blood dagger with a chain that, once pierced into the enemy’s body, would fasten the enemy and the armor on their bodies together.
Unless one could immediately shatter this special Palace Hall Armor, it would be impossible to break free from this ‘Blood Dagger Chain’.
The eyes of these two Palace Hall guards also flashed with the same madness seen in the previous Palace Hall guard, as if blowing themselves up and dying with their enemy was the most honorable way to end their lives. Lord Ling Yun raised his hands in anger and smashed the heads of the two Palace Hall guards with such force that their helmets and skulls were split apart… The two Palace Hall guards with cracked heads, despite their bloodied faces, opened their mouths and still coldly spat out one word: ” Die!”
Boom!
Two even louder booms of self-destruction, rang out.
“No, no!” City Lord Tu Hai let out a cry of despair, Lord Ling Yun was like his older brother who usually took care of him, and now he was blown up by the enemy who had self-destructed and died in front of him. How could he not be heartbroken?
“He’s alive…” as the shock wave from the self-destructing blasts passed, one of the leaders from Eight Desolations realized that within the thick smoke at the center of the blast, there was still a shadow of a bedraggled figure.
“Die!”
However, before the crowd could rush forward to help.
Two more Palace Hall guards, one from the top and the other from the bottom, forcefully embraced Lord Ling Yun’s shattered body.
Their eyes were terrifyingly mad.
City Lord Tu Hai rushed over to Lord Ling Yun in desperation, wanting to attempt a rescue, even the other Eight Desolation leader couldn’t stop him. A shadow blocked Tu Hai’s path, his crazy eyes reflecting City Lord Tu Hai’s face which was twisted in anger… The other Eight Desolations leader who was trying to retreat suddenly realised that there were three more shadows approaching him silently from behind, and suddenly felt the shadow of death looming upon him…In fact as the other leaders raced to his aid, yet another shadow rushed into their midst and self-destructed.
Even the captain of the Palace Hall guards had arrived in front of Yue Yang, seemingly wanting to die with Yue Yang, the leader of their group.
Boom boom boom boom!
A series of suicidal shockwaves exploded one after another.
The entire battle field was flattened to the ground, Ling Yun, Tu Hai, and that Eight Desolations leader were nowhere to be seen, and even a few of the other leaders that came to their rescue had been engulfed by the blast and were more or less with a few scars on them.
“You think you can kill me?” Yue Yang looked indifferent as he asked the captain of the Palace Hall guards in front of him.
“No, but as long as I can take one of your hands or break one of your feet, that is enough.” That Palace Hall guard captain wasn’t a fool, he also knew that Yue Yang was the strongest among everyone. He didn’t think that his Heavenly Rank 5 strength could take out Yue Yang, even if he was a hundred times more powerful, and was willing to sacrifice himself in self-destruction. However, he still chose an unkillable Yue Yang over someone else…because, in his eyes, if he could use his life in exchange for one hand or one leg of Yue Yang, that would have been a great gain.
“You can’t even hurt a single hair of mine.” A mocking smile appeared on Yue Yang’s lips.
“No matter what, I have to try.” The captain of the Palace Hall guards did not waver.
“Come.” Yue Yang beckoned with his finger at the Palace Hall guard captain, signaling that he could begin. The moment the Palace Hall guard captain activated his Forbidden Power and prepared to self-destruct, the young man in front of him disappeared.
He turned around and looked back.
Seeing an incredible sight.
Lord Ling Yun, City Lord Tu Hai together with the other Eight Desolations’ leaders who had been blown up together, were all still standing in the field. Even his nine subordinates who had successively blown themselves up, they were all still standing behind him… yet their eyes presented a kind of dead man’s gaze, void of consciousness, their pupils were spread open, their heartbeat had stopped and they seemed to have died for a long time… The captain of the Palace Hall guards swept a glance over the faces of Lord Ling Yun and the others, and realised that on the faces of Lord Ling Yun, City Lord Tu Hai and the other leaders were the same suspicious and baffled expression as was on his. There were no wounds on their bodies, but this was definitely not a resurrection… A thought flashed through the Palace Hall guard captain’s mind: illusion!
This mysterious young man was using an illusion that was so real that it was indistinguishable, and managed to make nine of his subordinates ‘self-destruct’.
In fact, Lord Ling Yun and the others were not even in range of the self-destruction blast from the start.
Even his own subordinates hadn’t really self-destructed at all, they just thought that they had successfully self-destructed and their souls died contentedly… This mysterious young man who had successfully deceived them with his illusion, had successfully kept even himself in the dark, and if he had not voluntarily stopped the illusion, even he himself would have thought he had self-destructed and died happily within the illusion!
He was actually not unjustly defeated.
For the [World Creation] Domain that Yue Yang possessed, except for those who possessed the Supreme Will of an Innate Supreme, others would not be able to see through it, and even if they possessed the Supreme Will, it was still impossible to fully see through this [World Creation] Domain unless one was a God. Moreover, who would dare to say that they could confidently see through Yue Yang who had the [Counterfeit] Innate Talent, the [World Creation] Domain and multiple Guardian Beasts protecting him? Back in the day, even with the Navaragha Queen’s ability, she was still unable to see through Yue Yang, and it was normal for him, a mere Palace Hall guard captain, to be defeated under the [World Creation] Domain!
“Do you still have the confidence to kill me now?” A smile appeared at the corner of Yue Yang’s lips as he asked faintly.
“You are powerful, much more powerful than I imagined, we have no regrets about dying in your hands today… However, the Great Palace Lord will avenge us, he has the Supreme Intellect, your illusion will not be able to deceive him! You may be powerful, but you’re nothing more than an ant in front of the Great Palace Lord!” The captain of the Palace Hall guards saw Lord Ling Yun and the others, slowly closing in, intent on capturing him alive. He roared, and stabbed the top of his forehead with a bloody dagger, before Lord Ling Yun and the others could take out their treasures to capture him alive, and his body activated the Forbidden Power at the same time, blowing himself up.
Yue Yang stretched out his hand.
A bright and shining starry sky was presented in his hand.
There were countless stars twinkling within the starry sky, yet they were stationary and unmoving.
The body of the Palace Hall guard captain which was still in the process of blowing apart, as well as the shock wave of the explosion, were all stilled and suspended in front of Yue Yang’s palm for a moment. A second later, Yue Yang’s palm rotated, and the stars rotated at the same time, forming a beautiful vortex of stars and nebula, forming a black hole that devoured everything, instantly absorbing all the blood and shockwaves of the explosion, three seconds later, the captain of the Palace Hall guards disappeared from the world without leaving behind a single trace, as if his entire being never existed to begin with, almost as if he had never been born into the Heavenly Realm.
“Heavens!” Lord Ling Yun and the others, everyone of them, looked horrified.
What kind of strength did the captain of the Palace Hall guards possess?
After activating his Forbidden Power and boosting his strength, he was currently more powerful than any of them. However, when he decided to self-destruct in front of the Third Young Master, he had not been able to hurt even a single hair on Third Young Master’s head yet he had already completely disappeared from this world.
This kind of starry sky which could even stop time and space, this kind of black hole that could devour all things, what exactly was this ability?
And this was not even the Power of Law!
What if the Third Young Master used the Power of Law, along with the starry sky and black hole, what then would happen? Wouldn’t even the strongest enemy be annihilated without a trace?
“The enemy has countless suicide squads, and there are many experts within them, even the Great Palace Lord’s realm is close to that of a ‘God’, they are not an enemy that we can face just by joining forces, Lord Ling Yun, CIty Lord Tu Hai, you all should leave these training grounds for now!” Yue Yang said this was actually a test, if the Spirit Cloud Country Lord and the others were willing to go, it wasn’t even worth deep.
“Third Young Master, there is one death in life.” The Spirit Cloud Country Lord slightly sank ín and suddenly laughed again, “If you hadn’t saved me with your illusion just now, I would have died in the enemy’s, Under the dead man. If you don’t think I’m useless and can’t get rid of it, you can’t do anything about it. Please allow Ling Yun to accompany you, even if it means being a pawn, it’s better than going back to being a shrinking turtle! Besides, the Central Temple intends to stain the Western Realm, and even if we go back, we won’t be able to survive for long!”
