Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor-Chapter 823 - 822: The Demon Blood Horn King’s Interception
Boom!
At this moment, a terrifying light of destruction tore through the void, instantly colliding with the Sword Aura, with endless shock waves wildly surging.
Taking advantage of the gap, the giant formed from the black mist instantly retreated, its expression vast, coldly staring at Chu Ming.
Whoosh!
The White Stone Banshee flew down beside the Black Demon Nether King, and it was she who emitted that light of destruction just now.
"Sword Emperor, how about we call it quits here?"
The White Stone Banshee's eyes revealed a trace of retreat, speaking faintly.
"Do you have the qualifications to make me stop with your strength?"
Chu Ming said calmly, the Sword Momentum on his body seemingly endless, as the Secrets of Celestial Extinction and Secrets of Slaughter exploded forth, instantly turning the area within a kilometer into a Sword Domain.
"This is just our avatars, indeed not as strong as you, but outside the Great Wilderness, there is the true form of the Demon Blood Horn King waiting for you to come out to slaughter you. No matter how strong you are, it is impossible for you to be a match for the Demon Blood Horn King. If you let the two of us leave, we can let the Demon Blood Horn King spare you."
Faced with Chu Ming's video, the White Stone Banshee was not angry, still earnestly speaking.
But in her heart, she sneered coldly. As long as Chu Ming let them leave, once they completed their task, they would certainly join forces with the Demon Blood Horn King's true form to besiege Chu Ming, making escape impossible.
"You must be thinking right now, once I let you two leave, you will join forces with the Demon Blood Horn King's true form to slaughter me with all your might, right?"
Chu Ming said with a calm expression and faintly.
"What?!"
The White Stone Banshee frowned, not having reacted yet, when a brilliant Sword Aura burst out from the void, engulfing space, directly bombarding her and the Black Demon Nether King.
Boom!
Pfft!
In the blink of an eye, the White Stone Banshee instantly retreated, narrowly avoiding the encirclement of the Sword Aura.
But the Black Demon Nether King beside her was not so lucky. In the face of the Sword Aura, his already heavily injured body had no resistance, directly being slaughtered into Void.
"You, don't want to live?"
The White Stone Banshee shouted coldly, her eyes full of terror. She wasn't afraid of death, for after all, this was just one of her avatars, and even if it died, it wouldn't affect her true form much. But once this avatar was dead, the task given by the Demon Emperor was utterly failed.
Boom!
Chu Ming remained silent, his expression showing neither sadness nor joy. The Azure Sky Sword in his hands once again struck, a terrifying Sword Aura bursting with ten thousand feet of light, transforming into a Sword River, instantly drowning the White Stone Banshee.
"Humph!"
Puff puff puff...
The White Stone Banshee groaned, having no resistance under this Sword River, her body directly torn apart, and her True Spirit was annihilated in a single move.
Whoosh!
Chu Ming grabbed the four Storage Rings into his hand, while the Ice Emperor Lotus was also placed into his Storage Ring.
The Ice Emperor Lotus was useless to him, but on the market, it could be sold for five to six million top-grade Spirit Stones.
He was in great need of Spirit Stones now!
Most of the Storage Rings of the four were filled with miscellaneous items and only a few valuable things, after all, these were just their avatars and they couldn't possibly carry too much.
After sorting these things, Chu Ming then focused his gaze on the huge altar in front of him.
"Sword Emperor, do you know what this place is?"
Chu Ming asked the remnant soul of the Ancient Sword Emperor within him.
"This should be the Continent's Pillar!"
The remnant soul of the Ancient Sword Emperor said slowly.
"Continent's Pillar?"
It was the first time Chu Ming had heard of the Continent's Pillar, which was understandable since his time in the Life and Death Realm was short and he wasn't clear on some of the secrets of the Celestial Martial Continent.
"Yes, the Continent's Pillar is something that suppresses the fortunes of the Celestial Martial Continent, supporting the entire continent. Once it's destroyed, the fortunes of the continent will rapidly deplete, turning it into a dead land!"
The remnant soul of the Ancient Sword Emperor said seriously, even though it was just a wisp of soul, it could still sense the sinister intentions of the White Stone Banshee and others.
"The five of the White Stone Banshee likely don't know about the Continent's Pillar. The most likely scenario is that they were ordered by the Demon Emperor."
Soon, the remnant soul of the Ancient Sword Emperor said again slowly.
Whoosh!
Chu Ming made a sealing gesture with his hands, with red light flowing around him, and then the red glow intensified, a red barrier enveloping the entire altar.
Hoo!
Chu Ming added a layer of barrier to the altar. Although this barrier wasn't strong, it was enough to withstand the attacks of three high-level emperor-level beings for half a day, and once triggered by someone, Chu Ming would immediately sense it.
Whoosh!
After finishing all this, Chu Ming turned and left to continue hunting Spirit Bodies.
...
In the blink of an eye, five days passed quickly. While hunting Spirit Bodies, Chu Ming sensed something, stopped attacking, and looked up towards the sky of the Great Wilderness.
Boom!
A rumbling sound arose, with the whole Great Wilderness vibrating violently, its content Spirit Bodies scurrying around in chaos, Chu Ming even saw two terrifying Spirit Kings, their figures massive, their eyes blood-red, shaking the sun and moon, but now filled with panic.
"Is it time to leave?"
Chu Ming deeply exhaled, adjusting his energy and spirit to their peak. He knew that once he left, a fierce battle with the Demon Blood Horn King was inevitable.
Boom!
The void tore apart, a terrifying suction coming from within, and Chu Ming did not resist, allowing the suction to pull him into the void rift.
Crunch!
When Chu Ming's figure vanished into the void, the rift closed again, as if nothing had happened, with the whole Great Wilderness returning to desolation, waiting to be opened once more.
In the void, countless gray airstreams entwined around Chu Ming, who calmly observed his surroundings. The Secrets of Space and Secrets of Void were somewhat similar, but undoubtedly more profound and mysterious. According to what Chu Ming knew, throughout the Celestial Martial Continent, there were only a few who comprehended the Secrets of Space, and among those who did, only grasped the surface.
Boom!
Chu Ming's view became increasingly bright, with rays of sunlight penetrating the space and reflecting onto him, warm and comforting.
Boom!
When his vision cleared, Chu Ming found himself above a sea area. Based on his memory, he knew that this place was only a hundred li from the Great Wilderness.
Slash!
"You've finally come out, I've been waiting!"
A chilly voice echoed from the other side of the void, and then a blood-red arm extended from the void, charged with the might of thunder, blasting towards Chu Ming.
The void shattered, everything around turning into chaos.
Shout!
Chu Ming was well-prepared, and the moment the void tore apart, countless brilliant Sword Auras surged around him, cutting across the star river, dimming the cosmos.
Ding!
