Chapter 2353 -2351: Detonating the Forbidden Seal
“It seems like your two families are planning something. Such a major event occurred today, yet we knew nothing about it.”
Cody Wilson walked over and coldly questioned the two individuals who lay miserably before him.
Si Wu Xiao’s throat bobbed a few times before he finally revealed everything.
At this point, hiding anything was no longer possible, though he still concealed the whereabouts of that sword.
“Could it be that the Ji Clan’s ancestral Emperor’s Sword is also involved?”
Anthony chuckled faintly, as if possessing an abundance of information.
“I wouldn’t know about that.”
Corbin Green struggled to get up and spoke with feigned confusion.
“That little bastard Ethan Smith’s strength has reached such a level? Even you, Anthony, couldn’t handle him.”
Si Wu Xiao’s face was exceptionally grim. The enmity between them and Ethan Smith was now irreconcilable, and witnessing Ethan’s power left a chill in Si Wu Xiao’s heart.
“This man has already achieved the initial stages of the Glazed Saint Body. If I hadn’t been trying to save someone earlier, I might’ve been able to kill him. Now that the opportunity is missed, it may take the descent of the Golden Avenue to finish him off.”
Anthony frowned as he spoke. He had already employed the greatest power available under the current Path of Heaven.
Even so, he had only managed to injure Ethan Smith. Still, he didn’t seem too concerned.
This time, he had merely borrowed the Power of Heavenly Dao. If, in the future, the suppression of Heavenly Dao were lifted, killing Ethan Smith would not be difficult.
“I propose we directly kill Frederick Cohen. Ethan Smith has already formed an eternal enmity with Monohorse Hall, and there’s no room for negotiation on either side. Frederick Cohen, being another holy body, will surely become a great threat to us once he recovers.”
A flash of killing intent crossed Corbin Green’s face. Despite the two families’ meticulous preparations, they had still failed to deal with Ethan Smith.
He could already foresee the immense pressure he, as a Saint, would face from his family after this incident.
“You all can decide that for yourselves.”
Anthony’s body shuddered before vanishing from the spot.
“Fine.” freeweɓnøvel.com
Cody Wilson nodded, pulling out a token covered in countless Divine Soul auras.
With a gentle squeeze, Frederick Cohen’s Divine Soul promptly exploded.
At that moment, Frederick Cohen, hidden within the Sumeru Ring, spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
He let out an agonizing scream as the divine sense prohibition erupted in his Divine Soul like a searing blade, slicing through his soul as if with tiny knives.
“Frederick Cohen, hold on!”
Ethan Smith’s expression changed drastically. He hadn’t expected Corbin Green’s madness in triggering the prohibition directly.
Ghost Qi surged from his hands, and the Soul Nightmare Heart Skill’s Ghost Qi extended into Frederick Cohen’s divine sense.
Frederick Cohen’s soul, at this very instant, was already riddled with wounds.
Ethan’s Ghost Qi probed into it, attempting to grasp that skeletal prohibition embedded deep within the soul.
Sensing danger, the skeletal prohibition burrowed further into Frederick Cohen’s Divine Soul.
“You think you can break the prohibition? Do you really believe my Wilson family is that easy to manipulate? Not even the Holy Lord could undo this Divine Soul Prohibition.”
Cody Wilson sneered with utter confidence.
Beads of sweat drenched Ethan Smith’s forehead. Initially, he had planned to use the Sumeru Ring’s abilities to protect Frederick Cohen.
However, he hadn’t anticipated that the prohibition would unleash devastation on Frederick Cohen’s Divine Soul if the token’s aura wasn’t present. Furthermore, the skeletal prohibition was remarkably cunning, retreating deeper at the first sign of danger.
Frederick Cohen’s forehead veins bulged like thick ropes, primed to snap at any moment.
He gritted his teeth, suppressing himself and refraining from crying out in pain.
The prohibition tore his soul apart piece by piece, crafted with unparalleled brutality to ensure its victim would suffer the most excruciating death possible—an unrelenting symbol of terror for prisoners in the abyss.
Ethan’s eyes turned bloodshot. *The bone-deep agony Frederick Cohen must be enduring—Ethan knew exactly how unbearable it was.*
“Damn, this feels great! That damned Wilson family thinks they can make me bow? They can kiss my ass.”
Frederick Cohen spat out another mouthful of blood, laughing weakly.
“Brother, send me off.”
Frederick suddenly muttered in a deep tone.
“The Nine-lives Coffin!”
Ethan’s eyes widened, his heart sinking as his thoughts immediately jumped to the Nine-lives Coffin.
Of all he’d seen, only the masked woman’s Divine Soul cultivation was more terrifying. A prohibition forged from divine sense might be suppressed by the coffin itself.
Ethan opened the coffin and kicked Frederick inside.
The coffin floated into the Void, exuding a bone-chilling Ghost Qi as if detecting a foreign presence.
Ethan activated the Chaotic Nightmare Heart Technique, channeling spiritual energy into the coffin.
Following the guidance of the man with the mustache, he meticulously operated the technique, his anxiety mounting—*Would this even work?* he wondered.
After what felt like an eternity, the coffin finally settled into an eerie calm.
Frederick Cohen had passed out, his face void of color. Meanwhile, the prohibition had also fallen silent.
For now, at least, Frederick Cohen’s life was preserved. The coffin had completely suppressed his divine sense, rendering the prohibition incapable of further action.
Ethan’s expression was still grim. Though the divine sense prohibition was temporarily suppressed, Frederick Cohen’s Divine Soul was likewise restrained, leaving him in a state akin to living death.
If a solution wasn’t found soon, the Ghost Qi would eventually erode Frederick’s consciousness, leaving him as little more than a soulless puppet.
“Given the circumstances, this is already the best outcome. Saving him at all was no small feat. They were clearly prepared and had advance information. If it weren’t for your initial success with the Glazed Saint Body, even escape would’ve been a pipe dream.”
Kennedi Evans walked over to pat Ethan on the shoulder.
The two soon arrived on the Qingluan Continent and entered the Azure Sky Palace.
Elder Baker hastily approached them, his expression grave. “Ethan, we’ve detected the presence of numerous cultivators around here lately. They seem to be gathering intelligence. It’s highly likely our location has been exposed.”
“It doesn’t matter. With such a massive commotion, keeping it all under wraps was never an option.” Ethan shook his head.
Under the suppression of the Path of Heaven, the strongest power available was confined to half-step Heavenly Might—a force that posed no immediate threat to him. Thus, he was relatively unconcerned.
Still, the deathly silence emanating from the coffin filled Ethan with an inexplicable unease.
He had to find a solution for Frederick Cohen soon. Any further delay, and the consequences could spiral out of control.
“Ethan, it’s not as simple as it seems. The nine Great Families use their unique Divine Soul prohibitions to control prisoners. They’ve done this for two Heavenly Dao Ages, and so far, no one has escaped.”
Noticing Ethan’s unsettled expression, Kennedi offered her reminder.
“For now, focus on recovering from your injuries. Whether through negotiation or other means, strength will always be the ultimate foundation.”
Ethan sighed deeply, unable to think of another plan.
He also needed to perfect his Glazed Saint Body urgently. Though he currently had an abundant supply of chaotic qi, he felt the overwhelming power in Anthony, whose body had long been tempered by the Path of Heaven.
Anthony seemed capable of wielding Heavenly Dao’s power with the slightest use of spiritual energy, delivering each strike at the absolute limit of power under Heavenly suppression.
If it truly came down to a fight to the death, Ethan wasn’t confident he could prevail.
