Chapter 1282 - 641: True Happiness
Boom!
Just as the Blood Moon Arrow was shot, the chest of the Horned Cave Wolf exploded with a large hole. Fei Guang struck and pierced through but did not shatter his soul and consciousness.
After piercing through his body, a glimmer of light suddenly soared up, blocking the Blood Moon Arrow flying towards Ji Jue.
The spring light of the Bitter Day flashed and disappeared.
The critical strike failed to work effectively, merely perishing together with the Blood Moon!
Tong Shan drew his sword, attempting to assist, but the Mountain Wolf had already leaped again. And beneath his feet, viscous black water gushed, and pale hands reached out from the water, grabbing towards Tong Shan's body.
The heavily wounded Horned Cave Wolf smiled viciously and rushed towards An Ning, dropping the longbow in his hand. Between the fingers of his other hand, he held three arrows like claws, aiming at An Ning's face.
An Ning swung her hand, a short knife slashing upwards, while her other hand grabbed the piercing arrows. The short knife stabbed into the face of the Horned Cave Wolf, going through the back of his head, while her other hand was also wounded and mangled.
A momentary stalemate, the Horned Cave Wolf opened his mouth, spitting out the arrow hidden under his tongue, but likewise, Fei Guang spat out from An Ning's hand, colliding and annihilating each other.
At that moment, the Wolf Poison finally took effect.
An Ning's movements slowed for a moment.
Facing the complete claws of the wolf, she instinctively lowered her head. Behind her, the Dragon Mountain Armor roared, swinging its fist!
Boom!
A head-on collision, with power no less than Dragon Mountain, but faster!
With An Ning's reaction, in this endlessly delayed slow motion, she could even see the heavily wounded wolf smiling silently, its sharp claws inching towards her heart…
And in this endlessly slow time, she saw—
A crimson blade, descending from the heavens, effortlessly piercing into the wolf's skull, slicing down through the split vertebrae into its chest.
Crack, a crisp sound.
Pan Ying!!!
When the wolf realized its pain and tried to escape, it was too late; An Ning had already grabbed its outstretched claws, reversing the hold.
Pouring in all her strength.
Even if it was just an insignificant moment.
Everything was already destined.
Pan Ying shook, the blood-red siphon devouring all life!
Unable to display its skills and strength, the hunter fallen into a wolf met his demise!
Until the last moment, on the rapidly shriveled and rigid face, there remained confusion and bewilderment, unable to comprehend.
Why so fast?
How could a craftsman be so quick!
Unfortunately, no one answered.
"Sorry for troubling everyone to delay for so long."
Ji Jue's metallic face revealed a smile, slowly turning back to look at the terrified Forest Wolves: "Are you ready to die now?"
Then, within the domain, there was a sudden commotion.
The scorching red steel shadow had already broken through!
Within the perception and reaction, in the time slowed to the limit, the Forest Wolves were also unable to discern the opponent's movements, as if frames were skipped, losing target lock hundreds of times in less than a second…
Like spatial jumps, each flicker advanced further, each moment of losing the target brought a bone-chilling dread.
In Ji Jue's hand, the scorching red Pan Ying vibrated excitedly, letting out a high-pitched screech!
On the spine of the sword, the third incomplete mark of the Inheritance Burnt Offering had been repaired to four-fifths, glowing with a blinding light!
——Six Ancient Ghosts·Blood Arm!
In Ji Jue's hand for so long, the Sacrificial Master, on the verge of starvation, finally began today!
From the moment the battle started, when everything was handed over to Isis, Ji Jue had awakened the Pan Ying buried in his body.
When Isis clashed with Tao Chen with immense operations, Ji Jue was continuously pouring offerings into Pan Ying, initiating the Inheritance Burnt Offering!
Consuming his own blood and spiritual essences, expending his life force and soul, to multiply strength!
The scorching red body wasn't overheating due to the massive consumption of spiritual essence, but because it was becoming unbearable by the amplification of the Blood Arm.
As for where the offerings came from…
With the gifts from the Forest Country, the offerings gathered continuously, countless in number!
What would Ji Jue keep the things given by the Wolf Evil for?! After the third wolf was born, why leave behind any polluted hidden threats?!
Unreservedly, in one breath, he poured all the accumulated spiritual essences and life force since entering the Forest Country into it.
How many people does this equate to?
Ji Jue couldn't count, only feeling his power doubling, and doubling again throughout the process.
Twice, four times, eight times, sixteen times, thirty-two, sixty-four, one hundred twenty-eight, two hundred fifty-six, five hundred twelve…
Until finally, under the reinforcement of Earth bears the sea and Three-phase Alchemy, nearing the brink of collapse, Ji Jue finally crossed the last threshold.
——One thousand and twenty-four!!!
Thus, the rebirth form that Ye Xian originally deemed as a blank slate was endowed with the original, extraordinary multifold of a craftsman, with a one thousand and twenty-four-fold amplification!
Now, primary and secondary once again reversed, with Isis starting to use its own magnitude of operations to continuously repair and maintain this near-collapsing steel body of Ji Jue!
And the gift from the Forest Country kept coming without depletion, even more…
Within the shroud of Blood Flames, a smile appeared on the cold metallic face.
In that moment, Ji Jue suddenly felt — it wasn't he who was about to shatter, but the entire world!
"So beautiful, don't you think?"
He turned back, looking at the stunned Mountain Wolf, and sighed softly, "The world of numbers, so many possibilities..."
Boom!
The Mountain Wolf exploded violently.
Countless blood mists writhed, converging atop Pan Ying, the blade ringing, thirstily howling.
Just the sound made the domain formed by Tyrant Heavenly Craft shake violently.
At the instant Ji Jue turned back, the Water Ape howled in terror, trying to plunge back into the dark waters, yet compared to Ji Jue's current speed, it was as slow as a crawling turtle.
The wolf's neural reflex, the accelerated perception of Extraordinary Vision, paired with the impregnable sheer value, suddenly, the Legion's joy surged from the heart.
So joyous.
Numbers! Numbers! Numbers!
In his life, Ji Jue had never experienced such exaggerated numbers, such exaggerated power, and such exaggerated... destruction efficiency!
In a flash, the sky and earth turned, blood light galloped, Ji Jue had reached in front of the Water Ape, casually grasped her hand, Pan Ying thrust forward—thus, the human face howled in agony, shattering inch by inch!
In Tao Chen's hand, a crack abruptly appeared on the scepter.
Then, the Gu Huo Bird turned to ash!
In the gathering cloud mist, the Ancient Mirror reappeared from the void, the Disaster Beast, dragon-like, opened its eyes, and then it saw Ji Jue close at hand.
When it wanted to close its eyes, it was already too late.
Ji Jue clutched its face, fingers contracted violently, the skull burst, the Ancient Mirror shattered, and under the destruction of the Dissociation Technique, it turned to ash.
Now, as Ji Jue lifted his head, looking at Tao Chen, pale-faced in the sky, he suddenly grinned.
"Wait—"
Tao Chen only had time to raise his hand when he heard, all around him, the continuous cracking sound of alchemy creations shattering, glows appeared on the defense, and before the steel hand, they disintegrated.
Only now did he hear Ji Jue's words.
"Too late!"
Pan Ying pierced through, tearing the body formed by mingled light, then, the Dissociation Technique had already pressed upon the Tyrant Heavenly Craft in his hand, the craft instinctively erupted, but before the deeper darkness, it bowed in submission.
Rampant devouring and plundering followed the scepter's shattering, infinite shadows fell into the void, disappearing.
"You are truly, so weak."
When that iron hand, like a branding iron, covered his face, Tao Chen heard the last faint sigh of his life.
So contemptuous, so regretful.
Then...
——Dissociation Technique·Jing Zhen!!!
Zhanlu, Chun Jun, Pan Ying, the spiritual transformation of the Three of Nine Forms merged between the fingers, surged into the soul of Transcend Rank, spreading aggressively, devouring everything completely.
The black flame from the soul's shadow easily dissolved everything, causing soul, consciousness, and even blessing, all to return entirely to chaos.
Vanished into thin air!
Bringing everything to an end...
In the very last moment, Tao Chen couldn't even speak, only his expression changed, as the unstoppable obliteration approached step by step, twisting, frantic, resentful, fearful, blending into a pathetic chaos, at the end, what emerged was actually... a trace of bewilderment?
As if awakening from a dream, the nightmare ended.
Finally recalling what day it was, where he stood, everything he had built, it was incomprehensible—why had the rage and resentment, endured for so long, become uncontrollable upon hearing Ye Xian's student had arrived?
And lastly, what surfaced in his mind was a face full of scars, expressionless.
Indifferently looking at him, neither sad nor joyful.
As if looking at a piece of consumable material thrown into a Melting Furnace...
Elder Anvil, is this your purpose?!
Throwing me to—
Crack!
That fearful face abruptly split a crack, behind which, the soul that had silently been eaten away amidst anger and hatred, dissipated without a sound.
Replacing it was a cold eye.
As if a fetus within was awakened, coldly and contemptuously, it glanced at the ants beyond itself.
——Heart of the Wolf!!!
In the instant the Heart of the Wolf, sowed casually in the past, awoke, it drained all remnants of the craftsman, developing and flourishing at a terrifying, imperceptible speed, showing its true form.
In this fleeting moment unreachable even by thought, it looked contemptuously at everything within the Circle Realm, finally, looking at the opponent before it.
Ah, a craftsman...
Such delicious scent, such pure resolve, and self almost torn apart!
Far surpassing Tao Chen, that waste, as a mother and host.
"Truly excellent material..."
Snap!
The wolf's void visage was grasped by an abruptly outstretching metallic hand, squeezing tightly, then, Pan Ying in Ji Jue's hand had penetrated into its face, to the very end!
Pan Ying erupted!
The terrifying power exchanged for with a multitude of sacrifices unleashed, blood-colored rainbow light descended from the sky, as if also rising from the ground, it pierced the heavens and earth.
Right in the wolf's scream.
