Chapter 1546 (Raw 1528): Demonic God Descends
The Treasure Master died?
The Treasure Master was severely injured in the first place. Then, he suffered the simultaneous attacks of seventeen Immortal Magic Treasures. Finally, Xiao Chen crushed the Treasure Master's brain.
Although a Martial Emperor possessed the Golden Emperor Body, the brain was still a vital spot for cultivators.
After the brain was crushed, it was extremely difficult for a cultivator to continue living. As proof of this point, large amounts of black Life Essence flew out from the Treasure Master's body.
Was the Treasure Master truly dead?
When everyone saw this scene, they all revealed an expression of disbelief. This was a strong person who had shaken the world for ten thousand years.
Did this death not seem somewhat too easy, or was Xiao Chen simply too strong?
The many Demon cultivators were stunned. With the death of the Treasure Master, who was strong enough to block the formidable Xiao Chen?
The many Primes fighting in the sky all showed doubtful expressions, appearing very grave.
"He is dead?"
Above the Deities' Nation, the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign muttered to himself, not daring to believe.
After a while, the Treasure Master's corpse still did not show any changes, continuing to spew out many motes of dense black Life Essence.
Only now did the many Martial Emperors and Primes show joy on their faces. The Treasure Master was truly dead.
"Hahaha! The Dark Church's Church Master is already dead. Are the two of you going to continue?!"
The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign laughed loudly. The expressions of the Earth Demon Monarch and the Shadow Demon Monarch, who were fighting him, changed greatly, showing extremely complicated emotions.
"The Church Master is dead?"
"Let's go. We'll retreat as planned."
The two Demon Monarchs exchanged glances and retreated quickly.
"The Dark Church's Church Master is already dead!"
Immediately, the news of the Dark Church's Church Master death spread throughout the battlefield.
When the Kunlun Realm cultivators heard this news, they were all very excited.
On the other hand, the Demonic World's cultivators and Demonic Beasts retreated in somewhat of a fluster, leaving a trail of corpses.
The seventeen Immortal statues and Xiao Chen's casual massacre had already reduced the numbers of the Demonic World cultivators and Demonic Beasts significantly.
Although the Demonic World still outnumbered the Kunlun Realm, it no longer held a suppressive advantage.
The united Kunlun Realm cultivators no longer faced any pressure. Furthermore, as the news of the death of the Dark Church's Church Master spread, the Kunlun Realm suppressed the enemy instead.
Up until now, this was the first time the Kunlun Realm cultivators held the upper hand.
"Kill!"
If they did not attack now, when would they? No one cowered or showed any fear. The Kunlun Realm's morale ran high.
Far away, Xiao Chen looked at the Treasure Master's corpse. He showed a cold expression, not betraying any emotion on his face.
Then, he threw another palm strike, which produced a pressure as heavy as a mountain and crushed the Treasure Master's corpse into mush.
The Treasure Master's flesh became completely mangled, as dead as a doornail. With such a state, Xiao Chen did not believe that the Treasure Master could come back to life.
Xiao Chen swept his gaze over the battlefield, looking for the Dark Church's two Vice Church Masters, Xing Wang and Fa Wang.
Those two's strength far surpassed the Demon Monarchs', second only to the Thunder Sovereign's; hence, they needed to be eliminated.
Xiao Chen planned to deal with those two while he still could fight. Otherwise, if his injuries worsened, he would have difficulty suppressing them.
Xiao Chen's earlier battle with the Thunder Sovereign was extremely intense. Every move had risked his life.
Although Xiao Chen possessed the Azure Dragon War Body and his Qi and blood flourished, far surpassing the Thunder Sovereign's, so many injuries layered over each other would not be easy to recover from quickly.
"Hey, why can't I find those two?"
Xiao Chen gasped slightly, shocked to discover that he did not see those two's figures, only the Demon Monarchs that were being chased.
Could it be that there is still some kind of plot?
The Demonic God?
Xiao Chen's expression changed slightly. Suddenly, he remembered the words that the Thunder Sovereign said before dying: once the Demonic God descended, all effort would be for naught.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Xiao Chen's figure flashed and quickly arrived before the Kunlun Palace's Palace Master. "Senior, have you seen Xing Wang and Fa Wang?"
The Kunlun Palace's Palace Master had sustained severe injuries, particularly on the face. The burns from Demonic Flames looked very scary.
There was a hole at his waist where blood flowed freely. A large chunk of his flesh had been chopped off.
The battle had been difficult for him. The Kunlun Palace's Palace Master had had to fight alone against two Primes that were second only to the Thunder Sovereign.
"They fled. As the Thunder Sovereign moved to the back, these two started fleeing. I fell for Xing Wang's trap and could not give chase."
Xiao Chen asked quickly, "What direction did they take?"
"The oceanic world."
"It's over!"
Xiao Chen's face sank. The Demonic God Blood Sacrifice must be almost complete, and the Thunder Sovereign had probably sent word to the two to return quickly to the altar.
The Kunlun Palace's Palace Master felt confused. Right now, the situation looked good. The Demons were being beaten into retreat. Soon, they would be pushed out of the Profound Domain. Why did Xiao Chen still say this? Could there be some hidden matters?
Just as the Kunlun Palace's Palace Master was about to say something, extremely dense black Demonic Qi appeared in the far distant oceanic world.
Even from millions of kilometers away, everyone could clearly see that pillar of black Demonic Qi. The flickering black light actually looked bright and resplendent.
"Whoosh!"
Before anyone could react, dark clouds surged out in all directions from the Treasure Master's island in a mere four or five breaths.
Just as the many Kunlun Realm cultivators showed shocked and confused expressions, the dark clouds spread to the Kunlun Continent, shrouding all of it. Neither the sun nor sky could be seen, the world plunging into darkness.
"Heavens, what is that?!"
Horror flooded the hearts of all of the Kunlun Realm cultivators. Terrifying energy was present in these dark clouds, inspiring dread in everyone.
The Kunlun Realm cultivators pursuing the Demon cultivators fled back in a panic, shocked and confused.
The seven Primes gathered together and looked at the sky, showing grave expressions.
The entire world was in darkness. There was no sky or sun; these dark clouds covered everything.
"Did you sense the Heavenly Dao being isolated?" Ying Zongtian asked softly as his body trembled slightly.
The senses of Primes were much more sensitive than ordinary cultivators'. Without a doubt, all of them detected something odd.
This feeling was indescribable. However, they could clearly sense that something was missing from the world.
The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign nodded and said, "It is completely isolated. The Heavenly Dao is no longer present."
"Could it be…" The Cyclic Astral Lord thought of a possibility that made his expression change drastically.
"Hu chi! Hu Chi!"
The demonic clouds churned and suddenly formed a gargantuan face looking down on everything.
The many Demon Race cultivators and Demonic Beasts all knelt at the same time, in the same posture, kneeling and worshipping, singing praises in low voices.
"The Demonic God!"
"It's the Demonic God!"
All the Kunlun Realm cultivators thought of this being and quickly retreated, extreme horror on their faces.
Could it be that heaven wanted the Kunlun Realm destroyed?
After several setbacks and countless outstanding talents dyeing the sky with blood, they still failed to save the world.
"Damn it!"
Tears flowed out of the eyes of An Junxi, who was covered in wounds. He wanted to shout, "why!"
The gargantuan Demonic God's face looked down, and horror surged in everyone's hearts.
A brilliant Demonic Might pressed over like a torrential flood, making it hard to breathe.
Shui Lingling felt extremely fatigued. She landed on Kunlun Mountain, holding the Emperor Yi Shooting Sun Bow, her countenance pale.
Not far away, despair flashed in Bai Wuque's eyes well as heavy reluctance.
Before the Demonic God completely appeared, it had already undermined the morale of most people, making them feel insurmountable despair.
"Drip! Drip!"
Suddenly, black demonic rain fell from the sky. When this rain landed on the Demon cultivators, it was like a panacea. All the injured Demonic World cultivators instantly became spirited and vigorous, returning to their peaks.
"Roar! Roar! Roar!"
Several Demonic Beasts roared out continuously. Their ferocious momentum, which had been suppressed, returned.
"Hahaha! With the descent of the Demonic God, the Kunlun Realm will definitely be destroyed!" The Demonic World cultivators were all incredibly excited, all of them going into a frenzy.
Xiao Chen looked around and suddenly discovered that the Life Essence that was scattering from the Thunder Sovereign's body had quickly gathered and flown to the dark clouds in the sky.
"Oh no! He is trying to use the Demonic God to come back to life!"
A murderous intent flashed in Xiao Chen's eyes as his aura surged out once again.
However, it was already too late. That scattered Life Essence rose up very quickly and soon entered the dark clouds.
Once all of the Life Essence entered the dark clouds, the demonic clouds covering the sky churned.
A gargantuan figure suddenly took form and landed on the ground.
Boundless Demonic Might surged out of this figure, stirring up strong winds that blew for five thousand kilometers around.
"Damn it! Xiao Chen, I've already merged with the Demonic God. You are the one who forced me onto this path. I will wash the Kunlun Realm in blood, make you suffer pain a hundred times—a thousand times—worse."
An extremely harsh voice came from the mouth of that gargantuan figure. That figure's face kept changing.
It was like countless people's faces were squeezed under that skin, looking exceptionally scary.
The Thunder Sovereign came back to life but as a creature that was neither human nor ghost. This was likely not what he wanted.
