Chapter 1934 - 629: Anticipation (2)
That wooden dragon lifted its dragon head from the deep pit, its eyes blank and panic‑stricken.
At this moment an appalling wound two hundred zhang long had opened across his torso, nearly splitting him in half. That blood‑colored war axe was still embedded in his Divine Body, and the wound had no way of healing for a long time.
It was War God Li Tan!
This war axe was precisely one of the 9,999 Divine Weapons Li Tan had collected!
Yet Mu Long could not understand.
That earlier strike, Li Tan had clearly used his full strength, at least the vast majority of it, to the point that a single blow had grievously wounded him!
The problem was, at this time, those Emperor Ancestor Gods outside the Demon Domain should be strenuously Suppressing the three great Demon Gods with Burial Sky at their head.
How could they possibly still have spare strength to strike him so ruthlessly?
Mu Long immediately felt a resonance, and his heart suddenly clenched slightly.
He had already sensed that outside the Demon Domain, four Ancestor Gods and three Emperors had already departed from here.
But what in the world was the reason?
Seizing this opportunity to kill the next generation Human Clan’s Saint Emperor, to kill that human who might become the Lord of Death Country, to annihilate the Human Clan’s final hope—was this not the unified will of All Gods?
All the more since that Chu Xisheng had once brought All Gods unspeakable humiliation beneath the Creation Divine Tree!
Why, at such a time, would several Ancestor Gods and Emperors abandon this place?
Nor had they completely departed; figures like She Yuan and Emperor Xuan had each left behind a powerful Blood and Flesh Avatar—but what use was that?
In an instant, boundless regret gnawed at Mu Long’s heart.
He had never imagined that just after he entered the Battle Wind Realm, the Gods would kick away their ladder!
However, he still forcibly suppressed his distracting thoughts and turned his gaze toward Chu Xisheng.
Mu Long sensed that the Combat outside the Battle Wind Realm had suddenly intensified.
Though several Ancestor God Emperors had withdrawn, the Gold Element Gods had further increased their power, striving with all their might to help him pin down those three great Demon Gods of the Human Clan.
The ’Wood God’ Spirit Power also held back no longer; he seemed to have used Pangu’s Essence Soul, causing all wood element and Life Domain powers inside and outside the Battle Wind Realm to swell in Divine Might.
And the Moon, that bright moon hanging in the sky of the Battle Wind Realm, became especially radiant at this moment.
Insight stirred in Mu Long’s heart.
If he wanted to retreat safely from the Demon Realm Battlefront, if he wanted ’Wood God’ Spirit Power and those Gods to fully intercept and receive him as he withdrew, he could only go all out and kill Chu Xisheng!
"Boom!"
Just then, another streak of Blade Light tore open the Void in the firmament and blasted down toward him.
That was yet another Divine Weapon of War God Li Tan.
Mu Long was inwardly alarmed that this powerful Demon God still had the strength to strike; yet he also secretly rejoiced, for the Divine Might of this blow was far inferior to the last. That War God Li Tan, after all, was still being restrained by the Gold Element Gods and could not go all out again.
Only, that bright moon in the sky shone down even more streams of pure, cold moonlight, spilling over the long spear that was Puncturing toward him.
Mu Long’s mind relaxed once more.
But the very next instant, his dragon body was still smashed a hundred li away by that falling long spear.
In the distance, Southern Pole Star Lord, seeing this scene, could not help becoming anxiously agitated.
"Canglong!" He suddenly let out a thunderous roar, his eyes bulging in fury, the corners splitting: "You idiot, you think we still have a way out? You think you can still hold back now? Help me kill him, or we all die!"
At this time, Chu Xisheng happened to begin a new round of reversing time, dying and then being reborn.
This was already the seventh time since the Combat began.
What enraged Southern Pole Star Lord was that after Chu Xisheng stole his power, he displayed utterly peerless comprehension.
He was actually rapidly grasping the Life Skill during the battle, studying and seizing its essence.
This caused Chu Xisheng’s control power over his Life Heavenly Rule to keep growing, far surpassing before!
He was already able to bring out twenty to thirty percent of these Fifty-Eight Layers of the Life Heavenly Rule.
Southern Pole Star Lord was finding it increasingly difficult to kill him.
Before, it took three breaths; now it took more than ten breaths to put him to death!
And even though he had received Canglong’s Life Heavenly Rule empowerment and his Divine Power had recovered once more to its peak state, that only shortened the time to five breaths.
—The problem was that Si Huangquan’s Bloodline transformation was very fast!
Perhaps in another 15 minutes she would complete her transformation, fully inheriting her mother’s power and becoming the second Netherworld Phoenix under heaven and earth—a Netherworld Phoenix based on Human Clan bloodline!
And once she possessed Yin Hou Tian Nai Luo’s power, even if she was temporarily unable to fully unleash it, it would still be enough for her to help Chu Xisheng pin down him, Southern Pole.
Taking a further step back, they could completely withdraw from the Battle Wind Realm and flee under the cover of those three Demon Gods.
Si Huangquan had already refined the Yin Queen’s Remnant, and thus no longer had any reason to remain here and passively take a beating; Chu Xisheng even less had any need to block the palace gate, facing his Divine Power head‑on.
Yet that wooden dragon still refused to burn his Life Essence!
Did he not understand that now was the time to stake his life?
What right did he have to hold anything in reserve?
"Shut up!"
Mu Long felt his own majesty being offended; his dragon whiskers floated as his voice thundered like a storm: "How this Lord acts is not your place to censure! Now, give me Si Huangquan’s heart!"
A trace of anger had already appeared on Southern Pole Star Lord’s face.
This wooden dragon was nothing more than a toy pinched out by their Ancestor Gods, yet he dared to be so arrogant before him!
Still, he unhesitatingly tossed over the Netherworld Heart in his hand.
He knew Mu Long intended to suppress and interfere with Si Huangquan’s transformation.
And Mu Long’s Life Heavenly Rule level was above his own!
