Eternal Heavenly Emperor-Chapter 315 - 305: Fury Reaches the Sky

An ancient artifact was activated.

It was a mirror that, once accidentally triggered, emitted a beam of light that blasted away a corner of Black Iron City. Witnessing this scene, everyone went mad.

How sturdy Black Iron City was known to all who entered; even a full-force attack by a Warrior couldn’t leave a scratch. Yet, the beam from this mirror easily destroyed a corner of the city—what terrifying power was this?

A treasure, an absolute treasure.

Almost every Warrior joined the fray to claim the ancient mirror, while Martial Sects and martial masters could only watch from the sidelines, secretly hoping that if someone carelessly knocked the mirror their way, they wouldn’t mind taking it for themselves.

This was a super weapon, capable, it was estimated, of crushing even War Generals and War Kings. Who would you fear with this item in your possession?

The competition for it was fiercely intense; Warriors unleashed their ultimate moves, each desiring to seize this precious treasure.

Yue Feng was also among them, incredibly brave. With a single palm strike, he transformed into a blood-red tiger, charging and ramming ferociously, within a radius of thirty feet around him no one could stand their ground.

But he was not the only strong one there; five others possessed strength not inferior to his, each dominating a corner, exuding an air of arrogance that caused a strong clash of auras.

The six of them restrained each other, none able to snatch the ancient mirror.

In front of such powerhouses, Ke Ruoshan had no choice but to back down; otherwise, a mere touch from the residual force would either be severely wounding, or have her carried out.

The Eighth Tier Warriors were too powerful, and even, these six might possibly step into the Ninth Tier, which would make their combat power even more horrifying. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Martial arts offer endless possibilities; some obscure in their initial stages catapult to power at a certain realm. For example, someone might break through the Eight Meridians at the Three Minor Realms, but upon entering the Warrior Realm suddenly rise in prowess, reaching the Tenth Tier is not impossible.

Therefore, past achievements only represent the past; they don’t guarantee continued glory in the future or that one won’t suddenly emerge as a prominent figure under the Heavens.

While the six stand off, others can only play minor roles. But that doesn’t mean the ancient mirror will definitely end up with one of the six; they might all end up severely injured in the scuffle, allowing someone on the sidelines to swoop in and reap the benefits.

Unfortunately, as Fat Cat said, this ancient mirror belonged to no one and would only bring disaster to all.

Whoosh, Fat Cat’s silhouette suddenly appeared, loudly proclaiming, "This Luan Mountain Mirror is not something you can possess. I offer you advice, leave Black Iron City immediately, otherwise, heh, if you think you live too long then feel free to stay!"

With another flash, it appeared before Ke Ruoshan and the Barbaric Girl, saying, "What are you still watching for? Run, quick!"

"What about my junior brother?" Ke Ruoshan asked urgently, with the Barbaric Girl also looking on with concern.

"He’s already left!" Fat Cat replied.

"Um... don’t you want that Luan Mountain Mirror?" Ke Ruoshan asked somewhat reluctantly, wishing Fat Cat would make a move.

"To possess it yet not live to enjoy it—isn’t worth it. Hurry up and run!" Fat Cat shouted.

Hum, at that moment, a terrifying aura of death spread out, a mere touch making one feel as if falling into an ice cave, uncontrollably trembling all over—not just martial masters and Martial Sects but also Warriors without exception.

Remembering Fat Cat’s earlier warning, Yue Feng and the others made a quick decision and ran.

They were all exceptional individuals of their time and knew how to choose.

—What precious treasure can compare to one’s own life?

Seeing Yue Feng and the others forsake the treasure and leave, most followed suit. They had almost turned Black Iron City inside out these days and found many treasures once belonging to Black Heaven Sect, though none as priceless as the Luan Mountain Mirror.

Now that their loot was substantial, retreating wasn’t a loss. Above all, this deadly aura was too terrifying, instinctively making them feel a great calamity looming—if they stayed, the likelihood of danger outweighed chance of luck.

Yet some were bold enough to take risks for wealth, thinking fortune favors the brave. As Yue Feng and his counterparts retreated, they sprang into action, trying to take the Luan Mountain Mirror with them.

Hum, hum, hum, wave after wave of deadly aura spilled out, making the previous one seem like a mild spring breeze by comparison, not even on the same level.

Pop, pop, pop, pop, including several Warriors among those still scrambling for the Savage Mountain Mirror, their heads exploded simultaneously into a shower of blood rain; their headless bodies danced momentarily before collapsing with a crash.

Boom, the deadly aura spread to the surroundings, hum, Black Iron City began to glow brightly, forcefully suppressing the aura. But the accumulation of the aura grew more extensive and violent, like a dam holding back a flood, where the scale of the water keeps rising, bound to break the dam sooner or later.

The people inside the city were desperately running toward the outside; those who ran slowly were definitely shaken to death by the deadly aura.

Chu Hao was not much faster than the others; Fat Cat’s illusion could appear anywhere in the city, so when it warned everyone, Chu Hao also had just started to run for his life.

Boom, boom, boom, wave after wave of deadly aura rushed furiously, pitch-black as ink, turning into rows of black snakes, slithering through the city.

Black Iron City continued to suppress, but couldn’t fully stop the advance; the deadly aura snakes kept spreading, incredibly fearsome.

Indeed, the Savage Mountain Mirror must not be moved lightly, for now it was as if the great formation had lost a corner, and the power of the seal was greatly weakened, allowing the Great Killing God’s malevolent aura to surge out. Yet, what level of being was this Killing God, for even the mere release of its malevolent aura to be so terrifying?

Chu Hao thought as he sprinted with all his might. Killing God, could it be a War God? But could a War God have traversed a million years to arrive in this era?

Fortunately, Black Iron City was not large. He was almost at the city gates and could see many people running from various directions, shooting towards the entrance.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, figures flew out of the city gate, their speed immediately slowed down, the air here strangely sticky, making it impossible to run fast.

"Junior Brother Chu!" Ke Ruoshan called from behind. By this time, Chu Hao had already put away the Silver Dragon Armor into the Mustard Seed Ring, otherwise she might not have recognized Chu Hao from the silhouette alone.

Chu Hao stopped and looked back to see Ke Ruoshan standing shoulder to shoulder with the Barbaric Girl. He smiled and said, "Elder Sister, are you both all right?"

"All right? We need to run fast, it’s not safe here!" Fat Cat also appeared, but this time it wasn’t an illusion wrapped in a bubble, but its real body. It jumped onto the Barbaric Girl’s shoulder and said, "Let’s get moving!"

Chu Hao and the two women quickly resumed running, and the others, seeing this, did not dare to fall behind and frantically followed suit.

However, it would take about half an hour to reach the initial barrier from here.

Did they have that much time?

Chu Hao looked back while running, only to see the malevolent snake reaching the city gate and then hitting an invisible wall, being forcefully blocked. Boom, boom, boom, waves of malevolence kept pouring out, making the entire Black Iron City seem like a black iron bowl, filled with black aura, incessantly shaking.

The malevolence swelled higher and higher, soon surpassing the height of the city walls, but strangely, it continued to surge upward without overflowing, turning into a black pillar.

"Ugh!" Many people immediately spat out blood. Even if the malevolence was blocked by the city walls, only allowing a trace of its power to spill out, it still shook them so much that they had to spit blood from discomfort in their chests.

"Fat Cat, what exactly is the existence being suppressed underneath?" Chu Hao turned his head and asked.

"A supreme being, unspeakable, unspeakable!" mumbled Fat Cat.

"You probably don’t know either, do you?" Chu Hao deliberately said.

"Meow, don’t try to provoke me, I won’t fall for it!" Fat Cat leaped from the Barbaric Girl’s shoulder onto Chu Hao’s head, "Silly boy, move it, move it, Black Iron City can’t hold for long."

"What will happen if it can’t hold?" Chu Hao asked.

"Naturally, that madman will wake up, have a fit of madness, and then seal himself again," Fat Cat said.

"What, you’re saying the person sealed by Black Iron City actually sealed himself?" Chu Hao could not help but be astonished.

"Correct!" Fat Cat nodded, "Of course, the formation is not arranged by that madman, but by seeking the help of an unparalleled expert. Once the formation was completed, he naturally could seal himself."

"Why?" Chu Hao was puzzled, who would choose to self-seal for fun? Was this "imprisonment" entertaining?

"It’s all the fault of the drastic changes in the environment of the world!" Fat Cat sighed, "The aspiration of that madman was great, but the world back then limited him, leaving him no choice but to self-seal, waiting for the day the world would be restored, and then he would truly emerge."

"When will that be?"

"Soon, soon, maybe in a few decades or a few hundred years. Haven’t you seen that I’ve awakened?"

A few hundred years is soon?

Chu Hao glanced back at Fat Cat, but the Cat Demon stretched out its paw and knocked on Chu Hao’s head, saying, "Silly boy, hurry up and run. If that malevolence breaks free from the restraint, you won’t even be enough to fill the gaps in its teeth."

Rumble, the malevolence shot straight into the sky, clouds gathered densely overhead, as if doomsday had arrived.

"Run! Run!" Everyone was panicky and frightened. With such might, they were in no position to contend. If the malevolence were to break out of the city, they would certainly have no place to be buried.

Ten minutes, twenty minutes.

Everyone was sweating profusely, feeling that time was moving exceptionally slow, and that the world was too vast. Why hadn’t they reached the end yet?

Clang, the clouds churned, a bolt of thunder fiercely struck down, like a long spear, cleaving the black malevolence in half. However, this did not dissipate the malevolence but instead provoked a fierce counterattack from it. Boom, the malevolence transformed into a ten-thousand-zhang long giant serpent, retaliating against the thunderclouds.

Was this a war against The Heavens?

Seeing this scene, everyone felt their mouth dry and swallowed hard, it was just too exaggerated.

Then, they picked up their pace and ran even faster. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it on Qidian (qidian.com), your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
