Chapter 1453: Mo Xie’s Henchman
The white light pillar had caused ripples to spread out in the sky and everything above Zhengming’s Main City was encased in ice!
Dark Death King’s body was rapidly getting enveloped by frost. Its final cry also seemed to have been frozen and disappeared halfway.
Ice filled the sky and the ground. The thick plant barrier that was covering Zhengming Main City was also smeared with a thick layer of ice. The Divine Mountain was snow white. The plain was frozen into a thick glacier. Even the clouds had changed to white ice clouds. The world had transformed from an endless darkness into a frozen world, truly an astonishing whiteness!
Above the Divine Sect mountain lookout, the several hundreds of Magistrate officials had finally finished this ice sealing technique. They became wobbly as if all their strength was drained from them.
Sealing techniques were different from most other techniques. If it was to seal some creatures with powerful mental strength, then there was a certain level of mental backlash to the user.
The Magistrate officials were sealing a Seven Sins Fox Dark King which was a ten thousand years old Immortal and also possessed the demon property. Its mental strength was truly terrifying. The mental backlash they suffered from the sealing process had caused those Magistrate officials to faint in large groups. Only the more elite Magistrates were able to remain standing.
Within the white glacier, White Dragon passed through those ice spikes and slowly roamed around Dark Death King.
Rage Ghost Lord saw that the battle had quietened down and so it also flew near Dark Death King.
“It shouldn’t be able to move anymore, right?” asked Tang Ang with caution.
Tang Ang had lived for so many years and yet it was the first time he had encountered such a powerful creature. His heart was still unable to settle down.
Xiao Xueang probed his soul remembrance into the ice sculpture to sense the aura of Dark Death King.
Within the ice sculpture, Dark Death King’s aura had clearly weakened. Regardless of whether this seal could really subdue Dark Death King or not, it was at least good enough to be able to weaken it.
Crack! Crack!
Suddenly, seams appeared on the outer layer of the ice sculpture.
The seams were slowly spreading and were turning into large cracks with ice shards falling off.
“Not good, it’s going to struggle out of it!” Tang Ang’s expression turned ashen instantly and he immediately escaped from the vicinity with his Rage Ghost Lord!
Rage Ghost Lord was already burdened with numerous wounds. Its life would be in danger if it continued to fight.
Xiao Xueang frowned and similarly let his White Dragon take some distance from that ice sculpture. He flew towards the direction where the two hundred Immortal experts were gathered.
“Magistrate Xiao, how is the situation?” inquired Old Sect Master Yi.
“It’s about to break free from the ice sculpture. Everyone, please work together to deal a heavy hit to it the moment it comes out,” said Xiao Xueang with a serious expression.
“Even the Magistrate’s Absolute Zero Formation cannot seal it?” exclaimed Old Sect Master Yi in astonishment.
Since when did such a powerful creature appear in the Zhengming Continent?
Everyone listened to Xiao Xueang’s arrangement and began chanting while Dark Death King was still trapped within the ice.
While the two hundred Immortal rank experts were focusing on their incantations, the surroundings had become quiet. This calm before the storm had even frozen the air current.
Not only the two hundred Immortal rank experts, even Magistrate Xiao’s White Dragon, Tang Ang’s Rage Ghost Lord, Old Sect Master Yi’s Immortal Vine Nüwa were also using this chance to charge up their strongest techniques.
More ice shards fell off, and the cracks started spreading even faster!
Boom!
Finally, the ice sculpture exploded loudly. All the remaining chunks of ice were scattered around just like countless white meteors!
Within the destroyed ice sculpture, Dark Death King raised its head furiously and gave a lengthy fox cry!
Darkness surged rapidly. The scattering ice chunks started turning into black gas. Thick black water started pouring down from the sky, becoming countless beautiful black waterfalls!
“Attack!” Xiao Xueang resolutely gave the order.
Lights of various colors shone brightly, gathering into a colorful cluster.
The immense energy hidden beneath the light shot into the sky!
Those techniques followed different trails, some flew straight, some curved and revolved, and some swept across the entire area!
However, they all moved in the same direction, towards the location of Dark Death King!
After Dark Death King got out of the seal, its body was still in a weakened state. The incoming barrage of techniques made it feel that its life was in danger.
Dark Death King’s black fur fluttered immediately. A pair of black depraved wings fell onto its body and changed into a dark armor to protect its body.
Dark Death King began moving around swiftly. Any creature that was hit by the barrage of techniques from those two hundred Immortal rank soul pets would definitely not survive.
It dashed swiftly through the darkness in stealth like the wind. The barrage riled up ripples of destruction everywhere around it. Shots of energy would randomly destroy everything in the vicinity whether they hit Dark Death King or not!
Booooooom!
It was on par with the noise generated by ten thousand thunderclaps. Zhengming City’s sky was utterly devastated by those techniques. Only the cold glints of destruction flashed constantly.
Naturally, the entire sky, earth and Zhengming Main City shook heavily from the impact.
......
The shaking lasted for a long time. The wind generated from the destruction madly blew through the atmosphere and didn't dissipate for a long time.
A huge void had opened up in the sky and was slowly getting repaired. The reverse current generated during the repair swept across the continent again.
After a long time, when all of that had settled down, the entire city and Divine Sect Mountain Range had fallen into dead silence once again.
Everyone raised their heads to look for Dark Death King’s whereabouts.
What they wanted to know the most right now was whether that terrifying Solar Eclipse was gone or not.
If it was subjugated, then Zhengming City could return to its usual peace, and this would turn out to be a dangerous incident which had ended without any real disaster.
If it was not, then would that mean that another battle was going to unfold?
More importantly, if the battle were to continue. Just what did they have left to use to kill that terrifying enemy?
People kept staring at the sky for a long time and tried very hard to look for Dark Death King’s figure within the chaos.
“It’s probably vaporized?” After a long while, Tang Ang slowly commented.
The two hundred Immortal rank experts also thought the same as they did not see Dark Death King for a long while after the barrage ended. It meant that Dark Death King was either vaporized by the barrage or was devoured by the newly opened spatial gap.
“What happened? Just where did that creature come from?” asked Old Sect Master Yi.
“Imprint Valley,” answered Xiao Xueang flatly.
Then, he purposely took a glance at Vice Sect Master Du Xian.
The meaning behind that gaze was clear enough. This disaster was caused by Du Xian, Xiao Xueang was naturally going to clarify the situation to the various leaders.
Du Xian was afraid that his schemes were going to be publicized and immediately explained, “The Imprint Valley has collapsed. This Dark Death King had been sleeping for an unknown amount of time inside it. After the collapse, it forcefully crossed the two dimensions and arrived here...... Luckily, I was able to discover it in time.”
“It’s scary just thinking about it, it's a good thing that it’s vanquished now,” Tang Ang coughed.
Tang Ang had been assuming that he was almost invincible in the Soul Pet Realm. However, after facing Dark Death King, his Rage Ghost Lord had its arrogance thoroughly beaten down.
“Perhaps it’s not dead yet,” added Xiao Xueang.
Xiao Xueang’s words had caused the two hundred Immortal rank experts to turn pale. They immediately used their soul remembrance to search around frantically.
Amongst the two hundred Immortal rank experts, a few were Gate Masters.
However, none of them dared to oppose Dark Death King from the front like Xiao Xueang and Tang Ang.
“Why do you assume that? I already cannot sense its aura anymore,” said Tang Ang.
“Look at that yourself,” Xiao Xueang pointed to the sky.
The sky was gradually returning to its original appearance. The rumbling black clouds were gradually dissipating, but the sun still seemed to be dyed in black ink, only the edge glowed eerily.
The Solar Eclipse had not disappeared yet, it meant that Dark Death King did not die!
“This...... What should we do?” The Gate Masters were really troubled.
They had paid such a heavy price and yet they were not able to kill Dark Death King!
The Divine Sect army had suffered a few thousand casualties, exhausted an enormous amount of resources for using a few grand formations, including the Absolute Zero Formation at the end. Those resources could have been used to create many Immortal rank creatures.
Even the precious City Barrier was activated in the end. A barrier which covered the entire city and could withstand high class Immortal rank techniques. Who could calculate just how much resource that would have cost?
“It must have escaped, hopefully, it escaped back into its dark nest,” said Xiao Xueang.
......
Divine Sect western mountain.
Chu Mu and Evil Good Queen were still spectating the scene. This epic battle was truly unforgettable. It was a pity that Du Xian’s Dragon Head Devil Eagle was not killed in the end.
“Wuwuwuw~!”
Within the darkness, a tiny black figure jumped out. A pair of eyes that were glowing in the dark were staring at Chu Mu and Evil Good Queen cautiously.
“Come here,” Evil Good Queen showed a gentle smile.
Her smile possessed a special attractiveness to it like Ning Maner. It was the charm that she was born with as the flower type ancestor. There was no need for her to perform any mental technique to achieve the effect of getting intimate with most creatures.
The tiny black fox slowly opened up its steps. After walking out from the darkness, Chu Mu could see the densely packed wounds on its entire body!
Evil Good Queen did not mind the blood stains on its body. She squatted down like a kindhearted older sister and softly hugged the reluctant little black fox.
Chu Mu watched this black fox intently which looked more robust and less elegant now. He knew that it was the culprit which had created the mayhem in Zhengming Main City —— Seven Sins Fox Dark Death King!
It was injured, gravely injured at that.
Just as Evil Good Queen had planned, the wounded Dark Death King would not choose to run away at this moment.
In its weakened state, it would subconsciously get intimate with the party which had formed a soul contract with it, seeking her assistance.
Evil Good Queen gently held it close in her bosom and ignored its blood staining her clothes. She used her other hand to gently stroke Dark Death King. As her finger stroked past those wounds, the wounds began to close up slowly......
“It’s very strong, right?”
“Yes,” Chu Mu nodded.
“It can be the henchman of your Mo Xie,” Evil Good Queen smiled and followed up before Chu Mu could react, “Of course, it would be after Mo Xie’s next mutation.”
