1198 A Difficult Opponent, What Is the Use of This Grotto-Heaven? (2)
“Stop!” a Grotto-Heaven Master cried out miserably. “Cao Chenyang, I’m willing to help you deal with Zhou Shu. I’m willing to form an alliance with you!”
“It’s too late! Now, give yourself to me. I’ll kill Zhou Shu and avenge you!” Cao Chenyang laughed out loud.
A huge mouth seemed to appear in the sky and swallowed the Grotto-Heaven Master.
Zhou Shu swept his Celestial Thearch Sword horizontally, but he was already a step too late. Cao Chenyang’s body disappeared again.
This grotto-heaven was Cao Chenyang’s grotto-heaven. It was equivalent to his home ground!
Zhou Shu realized this, and so did the other Grotto-Heaven Masters.
To Grotto-Heaven Masters, the home ground advantage was very obvious. Here, Cao Chenyang was the heavens!
Zhou Shu narrowed his eyes slightly. After the soul of this enemy from beyond the heavens took over a physical body, it was much harder to deal with than when it had only been one hand.
The most terrifying thing was that he could devour martial artists to increase his strength. There were countless martial artists in his grotto-heaven that he had nurtured for so many years. If he devoured all of them, his strength would probably recover to a terrifying level.
Not to mention, there were still the Grotto-Heaven Masters he had tricked into entering his grotto-heaven.
If these Grotto-Heaven Masters were also devoured by him, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Zhou Shu was glad that he had come alone. Otherwise, the other Grotto-Heaven Masters might not have been able to withstand Cao Chenyang’s attack.
At that time, they would probably really become his nourishment.
Zhou Shu glanced at the Ji Xuan Grotto-Heaven Master and the others. Under other circ.u.mstances, he wouldn’t care about the lives of these Grotto-Heaven Masters at all.
But now, if they died, it would only increase Cao Chenyang’s strength.
Even though Zhou Shu wasn’t willing to save them, he had to. “A bunch of useless people who can’t do anything right! Do you think you’re worthy of being Grotto-Heaven Masters?”
With a flash, he appeared beside the Grotto-Heaven Masters and shouted, “I’ll break through the grotto-heaven. The few of you, get out!”
The power of heaven and earth was extracted from the Celestial Thearch Sword.
The power of the grotto-heaven divine weapon was fully unleashed.
A sword beam that split the world suddenly opened an enormous crack in the sky.
The Grotto-Heaven Masters didn’t hesitate at all and entered the crack at full speed.
“Don’t even think about it!” Cao Chenyang roared.
But before he could chase after the Grotto-Heaven Masters, a saber beam almost cut him in half.
A long saber had appeared in Zhou Shu’s hand.
The saber in his left hand and the sword in his right were each emitting a powerful light.
Both the saber and sword were grotto-heaven divine weapons!
Cao Chenyang frowned slightly.
Zhou Shu felt that he was difficult to deal with, but how could he not feel the same way?
This d.a.m.n Zhou Shu joined forces with the Heavenly Dao of this world to severely injure me ten thousand years ago. Otherwise, my main body would have long devoured this world.
Unexpectedly, after so many years, he’s become even more difficult to deal with!
It was a pity that his strength had not fully recovered after so many years of planning. Otherwise, how difficult would it be to kill him?
Cao Chenyang cursed in his heart, but it was useless to think about it now. His injuries were very serious. Even after ten thousand years of recuperation, he had yet to recover.
Even after devouring some people, he wasn’t confident that he could suppress Zhou Shu.
If he fought him head-on and got injured again, it would be even more troublesome to recuperate.
After all, he was only a remnant soul with no source of strength. What he was most afraid of was getting injured!
Cao Chenyang’s eyes flickered. He turned around and transformed into the sky of the grotto-heaven. A giant vortex appeared in the air, and lightning poured down like a waterfall, drowning Zhou Shu within.
Rumble!
The destructive lightning seemed to want to utterly destroy the grotto-heaven.
A phantom that looked like a furnace appeared on the surface of Zhou Shu’s body and enveloped him.
His expression turned ugly.
The lightning waterfall attack couldn’t threaten his life, but he had lost his lock on Cao Chenyang.
This b.a.s.t.a.r.d Cao Chenyang actually abandoned his grotto-heaven and slipped away again!
Boom!
A sword beam scattered the lightning waterfall in the sky.
Zhou Shu looked at the empty grotto-heaven, not knowing whether to be happy or sad.
Cao Chenyang left this grotto-heaven behind, and it fell into his hands.
In other words, he now had another grotto-heaven.
But Cao Chenyang ran away!
Zhou Shu didn’t lack grotto-heavens now. What he wanted was to kill Cao Chenyang completely.
But Cao Chenyang was extremely cunning. He had no intention of fighting him to the death!
If anything went wrong, he would escape, just like when he abandoned his body and escaped to Cao Chenyang’s body.
Now that he had escaped, it would probably not be so easy to find him again.
He could devour martial artists to strengthen himself. Once he hid, no one dared to say how quickly his strength would increase.
His current strength had already surpa.s.sed most Grotto-Heaven Masters. If he secretly ambushed one, even Grotto-Heaven Masters would probably not be able to withstand it.
The more martial artists he devoured, the faster he could recover his strength.
In other words, if Zhou Shu found him a day later, he might become stronger.
Zhou Shu frowned and fell into deep thought. If he could devour martial artists indefinitely, he would have probably recovered his strength after so many years.
But he didn’t do that. From the looks of it, he can devour martial artists to increase his strength. But this devouring shouldn’t be unconditional. At least, he shouldn’t be able to do it as he wishes!
In that case, I don’t have to worry about him wantonly devouring martial artists.
But this is still a hidden danger. Once he completely recovers his strength, I might not be able to defeat him.
But now that his ident.i.ty has been exposed, I’m afraid it won’t be so easy to find him again.
In that case, we can only see whose strength increases faster!
Zhou Shu’s frown deepened.
It was actually very simple for him to increase his strength. It would happen as long as the connate divine weapons he forged were used to complete kills.
This was actually somewhat similar to Cao Chenyang devouring martial artists.
However, Cao Chenyang could devour martial artists without any scruples, but Zhou Shu didn’t want to kill wantonly.
The enemy in his heart had always been the enemy from beyond the heavens.
Even demonic beasts were allies that Zhou Shu could fight for.
Or rather, all the living beings in this world were his allies.
Under such circ.u.mstances, killing the living beings of this world was equivalent to killing his allies.
Although the more he killed, the stronger he became, not only would it not increase the overall strength of this world, but it would even decrease.
Demonic beasts can’t be considered enemies, Zhou Shu thought.
w.a.n.g Xuanyi and the others seem to be busy with something after returning from the Origin World. What are they doing?
Are there other enemies from beyond the heavens hidden in this world? In that case, can I harvest these leeks?
Zhou Shu pondered. He hoped to find a group of enemies from beyond the heavens. Only then could he quickly increase his strength and not be surpa.s.sed by Cao Chenyang.
Ji Lutian seems to know something. Since I can’t find Cao Chenyang, I’ll go back and talk to Ji Lutian. Then I’ll think of a way to find w.a.n.g Xuanyi, Shi Changsheng, and the others and see if there are any other ways to break out of this situation.
Zhou Shu sighed and looked at the grotto-heaven again. Hmph, since Cao Chenyang has abandoned his grotto-heaven, I’ll return it to this world!
The Celestial Thearch Sword shone brightly, filling the grotto-heaven and shattering it, returning it to the world!
