Chapter 891: s.p.a.ce-splitting Demon G.o.d
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Five people? An hour?” The powerful demon looked at Fang Zhengzhi then at the rest of the four, moving his fingers as he counted: one, two, three… Then, he looked back at Yun Qingwu. “You really held on for an hour?”
“Yes.” Yun Qingwu nodded again.
“Hmm… Very good! You indeed do not need to kneel before me. At least, until I manage to stay for an hour.” The powerful demon nodded too and did not doubt Yun Qingwu’s words because the expressions of the people around them have ascertained her claim.
“Can you hold on for an hour?” Yun Qingwu asked with the same tone and calm expression as before.
However, the expressions on the other people, including Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shans.h.i.+, turned ugly when they heard Yun Qingwu.
After all, what she implied behind her sentence was too obvious.
‘Can you hold on for an hour?’
This was a interrogative sentence. Yet when Yun Qingwu said it in this situation, it sounded very provocative.
Yun Qingwu, a lady who almost did not have any real capabilities, did not show any sign of inferiority when facing a powerful demon who walked out of the Gate of G.o.d. Instead, in the timespan of a few sentences, she had turned the situation to her favor without any efforts.
Given her abilities, how was she not born a leader?
“Hahaha…” After a short while, the powerful demon started laughing again, giving off a chilling aura in his stern expression. Meanwhile, he raised his hand gradually and a pale radiance flashed across his hand. Then, a dagger as black as ink appeared in his hand.
It was called a dagger because it the blade was short enough, but this particular dagger was slightly different from other ordinary daggers. It looked more like a bone spur.
The bone spur was full of black bone markings. One could not differentiate the handle and the blade of this bone spur as it only had a “bone knot” that bulged at the bottom.
The powerful demon did not answer Yun Qingwu’s question.
That was not because he was not confident of answering it, but rather because he knew that in this situation, he would appear more charismatic if he kept silent instead. As a powerful demon, how would he lose his charisma repeatedly?
“Run, old man Mo!” Mu Qingfeng shouted upon witnessing this scene.
“Run? I would love to run, but do I look like I can?” Mo Shans.h.i.+ laughed bitterly. It was impossible for him to escape with the presence of the powerful demon from thousands of years ago, Monster Emperor Baizhi and the dozens of monster kings who had charged from beneath.
“Pavilion Master, Valley Master Mo, Tower Master Qian, all of you leave first, I will take care of this myself!” Yan Yin’s voice could be heard. Then, bright light emitted from his body.
Without much hesitation and unnecessary words, Yan Yin’s personality was as such. He was slightly introverted but he never retreated at critical points in time.
As the bright line shone, Yan Yin’s hands moved. With an extremely rich battle experience, although he had the intention to block the powerful demon, he was not silly enough to get too close.
After all, without understanding him fully, keeping a distance would be more appropriate.
As Yan Yin’s hands pressed down in front of his chest, a majestic force pressed on the powerful demon too. Meanwhile, two spinning handprints had appeared on both sides of the powerful demon.
The powerful demon smiled.
A smile from the bottom of his heart. It was a chilling and strange smile that made people feet like if he saw the most hilarious thing on earth.
He definitely would not budge.
Even when the two spinning handprints had reached his ears and made his hair fly, he did not show any intention of budging.
Until the two handprints landed on his body.
Ding, ding! There were two gentle sounds that did not cause too much waves, looking as though the small lake had streamed into the ferocious waves of the sea.
It was gone without any return, or in other words, an overestimation of oneself. Afterwards, everything returned to calmness.
“The state of mortals? Acquired fulfillment?” The powerful demon took a glance at the place where the two handprints disappeared, then raised his left hand and casually slapped the radiance that had yet to dissipate on his armor.
It was a strange scene.
However, to Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shans.h.i.+, this scene was more than strange. That was because they did not understand what tactic did the powerful demon do to quell Yan Yin’s hand marks completely.
By swallowing?
No way since his armor still had the radiance of the handprints. However, if it was not through swallowing, what tactic did he use to quell the effects of the handprints.
Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shans.h.i.+ took a glance at each other. They saw the astonishment in each other’s eyes.
Furthermore, the words that the powerful demon said…
The state of mortals?
Acquired fulfillment?
What did this two phrases mean?
Could it be asking for Yan Yin’s enlightenment state?
A few elders of the demon race looked at one another with excitement on their faces. Although the reason was obviously because of how powerful the powerful demon was, they were secretly guessing what he meant by his words.
“Demon Deity Bing… Yan Yin is currently at the peak of his Sage State.” Finally, one of the elders of the demon race said cautiously after getting the signals from the other elders.
“Peak of his sage state?” The powerful demon looked surprised and took a glance at Yan Yin from head to toe. Afterwards, he said in disdain, “An ordinary mortal deserves to be called a Sage? Then shouldn’t I deserve to be called a ‘G.o.d’?”
“G.o.d?!” Everyone who heard the word had their expressions completely changed.
Since ancient times, those who deserved to be called ‘G.o.d’ were greatly admired and wors.h.i.+ped by the public. Every one of them had the powers to conquer the nature. [Translator’s note: The literal translation is to ‘move mountains and fill seas’]
The word ‘G.o.d’ was always looked upon superiorly.
Yet the powerful demon in front of their eyes…
Said he deserves to be called a ‘G.o.d’?
How ridiculously arrogant and daring. Yet, this showed that the confidence in the powerful demon’s heart was way greater than the enlightenment state of Yan Yin.
“G.o.d?” Monster Emperor Baizhi turned to look at the powerful demon. Unlike others, her expression looked much more calm.
That was not because she could possibly end up in the same faction as the powerful demon, but rather because she was much more clearer about the significance of the word ‘G.o.d’ in the ancient times.
“Hmm… From now onwards, I shall be called the ‘s.p.a.ce-splitting Demon G.o.d’!” The powerful demon certainly did not bother about the expressions on everyone’s faces, casually made a remark and then looked at Yan Yin. “Do you know what’s the difference between a ‘G.o.d’ and a ‘sage’?”
“Stop talking c.r.a.p!” Yan Yin clenched his fists and glowed with a brighter radiance, as if he was coated with a layer of light on his body.
As someone who had been severely injured in the battle with Monster Emperor Baizhi, Yan Yin had surpa.s.sed his usual capabilities.
He moved his hands again and the twirling handprints appeared around his body. The grandness and aura even caused the surrounding air to move.
“Looks like you don’t know.” The powerful demon, ‘s.p.a.ce-splitting Demon G.o.d’ smiled as he saw this scene. His smile looked much colder than before.
Meanwhile, he moved his right hand too.
Without too much radiance or powerful aura, he raised his hand gradually as if he was casually waving to Yan Yin.
However, that was a not a friendly wave.
At the instance when the s.p.a.ce-splitting Demon G.o.d raised his right hand, the black bone spur had vanished into thin air.
It felt very sudden and unexpected.
However, Fang Zhengzhi, who had been standing stationary without any moves or remarks, widened his eyes at this instant.
As someone who was in the Heavenly Rebirth State, he was extremely sensitive to the movement of air earlier on. Moreover, he was not too far away from the s.p.a.ce-splitting Demon G.o.d.
“Speed? No… it’s not the speed!” Fang Zhengzhi subconsciously thought the reason behind the disappearance of the black bone spur was because of the extremely fast speed.
Yet he felt the difference very quickly.
That was because if speed was the only factor, there would be inevitably some air waves after the black bone spur was used.
Yet, the black bone spur that vanished into thin air did not cause any air waves.
However, if it literally vanished…
Fang Zhengzhi would not be as shocked as he was right now.
After all, he had the ability of s.h.i.+fting forms in the Heavenly Rebirth State, and even the ability to provide support for a short period of time. Yet, the disappearance of the black bone spur was very different.
That was because, the moment when the black bone spur vanished, it reappeared at another location that was less than seven steps away from Yan Yin.
As black as Ink!
Then, it vanished in a second!
Slas.h.!.+ At the instant that the black bone spur vanished, a sound that was not too loud could be heard again. Then, the bone spur reappeared in the hands of the s.p.a.ce-splitting Demon G.o.d.
The black bone spur had an extra red marking on it. Blood flowed like rainwater down the bone markings of the black bone spur and landed on the top of the Tree of G.o.d.
Very quickly, the black bone spur had returned to the sparkling clean state and was as black as ink again.
This strange scene happened extremely fast. Yet, Mu Qingfeng, Mo Shans.h.i.+ and the sages watching from beneath all felt as though they were surrounded by a mysterious vibe.
It was not because of the strange scene of the blood dripping from the black bone spur, but rather, it was because everyone already knew where the blood came from.
“Yan Yin!”
“Elder Yan!”
Almost instantaneously, everyone’s attention landed on Yan Yin and widened their eyes.
Yan Yin looked at himself too.
Yan Yin bent his head down and looked at a small hole on the top of his chest. Blood was gradually flowing out from it.
It was a very fast attack.
It was so fast that Yan Yin did not feel much pain. He only realized and looked at his chest when he saw the reappearance of the black bone spur in the s.p.a.ce-splitting Demon G.o.d’s hand.
“So this is… G.o.d?” Yan Yin had an expression of disbelief. He did not even see the route taken by the black bone spur.
More importantly, he had already been surrounded by a layer of light s.h.i.+eld. That was the strongest defence tactic for one who was at the peak of his Sage State.
Yet…
Everything was insignificant in the s.p.a.ce-splitting Demon G.o.d’s eyes.
He did not wow anyone with any big moves or tactics. He merely raised his right hand and put it down.
“Looks like you not only do not know the difference between a G.o.d and a sage, but also do not know what is meant by a real battle.” After placing his right hand down, the s.p.a.ce-splitting Demon G.o.d glanced up slightly at the black and green doors that were completely open in the heaven. “Only the monsters and demons who had experienced a real battle would understand that you do not need any special amazing tactics to kill, you simply just need to kill the person.”
“Simply just need to…”
“Kill the person?”
The onlookers expressions turned extremely pale at this instant as they finally knew what was the kind of demon that came out from the Gate of G.o.d of the Realm of Monsters and Demons!
“Elder Yan!”
“Old man Yan, you can’t die now!”
As someone who was at the peak of his sage state, he ought to be at the pinnacle of the world and have the ability to defend himself even when he encounters the most powerful individual in the sage state — Monster Emperor Baizhi.
Yet now…
Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shans.h.i.+ realized that when they were facing the s.p.a.ce-splitting Demon G.o.d, they had completely lost their so-called defence capability.
It was a strong sense of crisis.
He was too powerful!
When they were battling with Monster Emperor Baizhi, the few of them had made use of their willpower to continue fighting on.
Yet, this willpower completely disappeared when they were facing the s.p.a.ce-splitting Demon G.o.d.
The powers of the s.p.a.ce-splitting Demon G.o.d…
Was not the ordinary powers. It was in fact, so powerful that it was too dangerous, so powerful that he gave off a killer aura as though he was on the ancient battlefield, so powerful such that it could make others lose their willpower to fight!
So, was this the difference between a sage and a G.o.d?
