Chapter 563 - 323: Who Is the Eunuch Lord?
[Decomposition Failed]
With a prompt reminder, Qin Yuesheng suddenly displayed eight arms, his punches as fast as a gale, all bombarding Duke Xuanming’s body like cannon blasts.
This being is not human, surely possessing many strange methods. Qin Yuesheng came here to find the Sect Leader of the Rootless Sect, but he couldn’t waste too much energy on him.
The eight-arm state is precisely the manifestation of Qin Yuesheng’s full strength.
Duke Xuanming saw Qin Yuesheng no longer using Blade Skill, instead focusing on close combat, and his expression turned grim. He was merely the spirit of this palace lantern, with most of his abilities being Magic, lacking any martial foundation. The longer he engaged with Qin Yuesheng, the greater his disadvantage would become, ultimately leading to inevitable defeat.
And every time Qin Yuesheng made a move, at the moment of contact with Duke Xuanming’s body, he would activate the decomposition function for a chance draw. Just succeeding once would be worth it.
Duke Xuanming recklessly exposed his whereabouts, leading to his peril. Under Qin Yuesheng’s violent assault, his means were dismantled and neutralized, to little effect.
"You want me dead! Fine, then let us perish together!"
Duke Xuanming’s face showed madness. He knew that even in this world within the lamp, he was unlikely to overcome Qin Yuesheng. Thus his form suddenly expanded, and the ink landscape started to burn with black flames.
At the edge of the lamp world, the ink was dissipating.
When a painting is about to be destroyed, no matter if the character within is immortal or demon, they all face destruction along with the painting.
The heavens and earth leaned towards each other, clearly attempting to crush Qin Yuesheng within.
As the ink landscape began to dissipate, Qin Yuesheng immediately released his Life Star Realm, instantly manifesting an endless celestial palace above him, supporting the falling sky, standing as a pillar of heaven.
To Qin Yuesheng’s surprise, as soon as his Life Star Realm appeared, this ink world swiftly began merging with the celestial palace, becoming a part of it, making the palace grow larger and larger.
At first glance, it seemed to become nourishment for Qin Yuesheng’s Life Star Realm.
"What?!" Duke Xuanming was aghast. No matter how much he racked his brain, he couldn’t have imagined such a scene occurring.
The celestial palace absorbed rapidly, and in no time, more than half of the ink landscape was drawn into it.
...
Crack, crack, crack!
Inside the Thousand Years Palace, the octagonal palace lantern on the ground, still emitting a white glow, suddenly became covered in cracks, alarming the nearby crows which flapped their wings, ready to take flight.
Boom!
In a flash, the entire palace lantern exploded, and a figure jumped out from within.
It was Qin Yuesheng.
The shattered palace lantern had lost all its brilliance, reduced to an ordinary lamp. Qin Yuesheng picked up the wick still smoldering with slight flames and crushed it into powder.
At this moment, Qin Yuesheng felt quite confident. Having unexpectedly let his Life Star Realm absorb Duke Xuanming’s lamp world, he had received considerable enhancement, with evident changes aiding him in battle with significant support ability.
Caw, caw, caw!
As soon as Qin Yuesheng’s figure appeared, the surrounding crows began cawing uncontrollably, flying into the sky, seemingly to alert everyone of the situation here.
Qin Yuesheng immediately swung his Celestial Fire Divine Blade, the blade energy sweeping out, cutting down all the crows from the sky.
The crows fell aflame to the ground, and even dead, their bodies continued to burn with fire.
Qin Yuesheng held the Celestial Fire Divine Blade in one hand and the Dragon-Slaying Sword in the other, six arms behind him either raised or poised, and proceeded directly towards the depths of the Thousand Years Palace.
Since such a commotion had already been caused, there was no need for stealth, just find the Sect Leader of the Rootless Sect and have a grand battle.
Inside the Thousand Years Palace, there were no supporting palace maids or eunuchs. Since meeting Duke Xuanming, Qin Yuesheng had not encountered another living soul along the way.
The entire Thousand Years Palace was shrouded in an aura of deathly silence, making Qin Yuesheng even more tense. The Rootless Sect was already notorious in martial circles as a mysterious sect, with few knowing its true appearance. So far, Qin Yuesheng only knew that the sect’s disciples all practiced the Divine Skill, the Nine Yin Extreme Dao Scripture, indicating the sect’s profound heritage.
After walking about a hundred zhang further, within the Thousand Years Palace, the largest palace appeared in Qin Yuesheng’s sight.
In such palace complexes, there’s generally a distinction between the main and auxiliary halls, recognizable with even a bit of discernment.
"The person should be inside here, right?" Qin Yuesheng stepped forward, pushing open the palace doors from a distance, producing a buzzing sound as the two doors slowly opened inward, revealing a pitch-black interior.
Whhoosh!
A foul-smelling cold wind blew out from inside the palace. With the Biluo Eye, darkness posed no hindrance to Qin Yuesheng. As the palace doors opened, a pair of eyes the size of wheels suddenly opened, glaring directly at Qin Yuesheng outside the palace.
It moved directly, gliding like a whirlwind out of the palace, biting towards Qin Yuesheng’s location.
Qin Yuesheng leapt, and emerging from the palace was an exceptionally rare giant black python, its scales akin to exquisite artworks, smooth and beautiful, with layer upon layer of patterns on its surface.
