Chapter 2298 Heavenly Human Five Deterioration, Mingyue Wuxia"s Spirit Energy, Chu Kuangren Came Out
"Xue Huo? I guess killing you will remove the curse."
Mingyue Wuxia attacked with a palm strike when he saw Xue Huo revealing himself. The vast Yin Yang energy transformed into a huge Taiji symbol.
Xue Huo was surprised. He did not expect Mingyue Wuxia to have such power under his curse.
"Swoos.h.!.+"
His body transformed into a cloud of smoke.
The Taiji symbol hit the smoke and dispersed it, but it quickly gathered again.
"It seems like other than Chu Kuangren, you of the human race should not be underestimated as well," Xue Huo said as he grinned at Mingyue Wuxia.
"There"s no physical body… This isn"t your true self!" "You"re right." Xue Huo grinned. He knew the humans had a monster like Chu Kuangren, so he was smart enough to come prepared.
He sent one of his clones to confront the cultivators.
His true self was hiding in some corner somewhere on the island.
He believed not even a Monarch could locate him.
"The Blood Curse Technique was cast using the blood of nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine human sky-prides. It"s a curse specifically for the humans. You people shall be weakened by the curse and slowly die like a normal person."
He had a hint of regret on his face. "Too bad I couldn"t get the Human Ancestor"s blood. Otherwise, I"d be able to target all the humans across the Infiniverse. I can even wipe out the humans once and for all!"
The human cultivators were shocked by his revelation.
They could not believe the Curse Tribe was planning such an atrocity in the dark, and it was the main reason why the foreign tribes came in here for the Human Ancestor"s blood.
The Human Ancestor was the first human in the Infiniverse, the origin of all humans.
The bloodline of all humans was more or less related to him.
If the Curse Tribe used his blood to cast the curse, it might really affect all of the humans in the Infiniverse.
Everyone was terrified even though it was just a thought.
"They"re trying to wipe us out!" "d.a.m.n it! To think Dao Lingtian and the other Monarch Seeds worked with the foreign tribes to get the Human Ancestor"s blood. If they had succeeded, the humans would already be over!"
"F*ck!" "Fortunately, Chu Kuangren intervened, and they all failed."
"Yeah, how fortunate."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after the initial fear.
However, what Xue Huo said next scared them once again.
"If I can"t get the Human Ancestor"s blood, I"ll start with you people. I"ll kill all the human sky-prides and render the rest of the human race powerless in this era! The Curse Tribe will finally overpower all!"
Xue Huo cackled and performed a set of mystical hand seals.
Then, a strange and ominous energy erupted from him.
The human cultivators felt a strange energy seeping out from their blood, and it robbed them of their strength and powers. All of them started to collapse to the ground.
"d.a.m.n it! He"s accelerating the curse"s speed!" "F*ck!" Everyone was horrified. Some weaker ones started to wither as their strength and power left their bodies. Even their hair turned white. Their bodies aged rapidly by the second.
"This is the Heavenly Human Five Deterioration!" "The Heavenly Human Five Deterioration is starting!"
The Heavenly Human Five Deterioration referred to the signs that happened before a cultivator died.
Mingyue Wuxia channeled her Great Dao energy to suppress the strange energy from her blood.
"Yin Yang Realm Crusher!"
The Yin Yang Great Dao"s energy erupted.
The sun and moon were hurled at Xue Huo.
The attack instantly crushed Xue Huo"s body, but the black smoke gathered again and formed his body.
His clone was indestructible. "Don"t waste your energy. My clone is feeding off the curse energy in this world. As long as the curse on you remains, you can"t destroy me!"
Everyone was, again, shocked.
What a ridiculous cultivation technique!
"Hmph! We can locate your true body and cure the curse!"
Mingyue Wuxia quickly thought of a way and decided to go with the other method.
She released her spirit energy across the island, and it blanketed the entire island almost instantly!
The sheer scale of her spirit energy was far stronger than a common Grand Dao cultivator. It almost rivaled a Monarch!
Xue Huo was shocked. "I really didn"t expect someone as monstrous as you in the human race. What a surprise." Even without Chu Kuangren, Mingyue Wuxia alone could disrupt his plan. Mingyue Wuxia expanded her spirit energy, scanning every corner of the island. Her spirit energy even contained a hint of sword intent.
"I can"t locate him!" Mingyue Wuxia frowned.
She did not locate Xue Huo"s true body on the island.
Could his true body be somewhere else or did he conceal himself from her using some kind of technique?
Mingyue Wuxia leaned towards the latter. If Xue Huo was purely a clone, he would not have the energy to cast the curse on them.
"Where is he?"
Mingyue Wuxia searched the island again and again.
Many of the human cultivators started to die from aging. They had grown so old that the Heavenly Human Five Deterioration had reached its last stretch.
They all looked at Mingyue Wuxia, placing their last hope on her.
"Mingyue Wuxia, it"s useless. You will never locate my true self!" Xue Huo grinned delightfully. He was fully prepared this time. Not only did he use his clone, but his true self hid so secretively that even Mingyue Wuxia, with her Monarch-level sensory abilities, could not locate him. "Every human on the island must die today!" Xue Huo stood with his hands behind his back, looking confident.
Kong Chunyuan and the others failed to retrieve the Human Ancestor"s blood, yet he was able to kill all the humans on the island with his curse alone.
He was a lot better than them in comparison. He believed the Monarchs would definitely reward him for his achievement.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, the void started to ripple.
The void cracked into an opening to the Ancestor Tombs.
White Immortal Sparks shone brightly from within, shedding its light and warmth on the island. All the cursed cultivators felt a sense of relief and warmth.
Then, a figure emerged from the Immortal Sparks.
He had the holy presence with the demeanor of an Immortal King. He was like a G.o.d that descended from light.
It was Chu Kuangren.
"All must die? What nonsense," he said with his cold voice.
Chu Kuangren shot a surge of sword qi at Xue Huo. The sharp sword qi instantly tore the latter"s body into pieces.
"He"s so strong!" Xue Huo was afraid.
His clone stood no chance in front of Chu Kuangren.
Not even a top Monarch Seed had such power!
The black smoke swirled around and gathered into his body again, but it took a longer time than before.
His clone was not as indestructible as he claimed. If he "died" too many times, his energy would be depleted.
"The curse is really a strange thing."
Chu Kuangren knew who Xue Huo was with just a glance. Then, he looked at his fellow human cultivators who were affected by the curse.
"Chu Kuangren, you are indeed something else. You"ve disrupted our plan, and I"ll make you pay for your actions in the future," Xue Huo said with a scoff.
"Unfortunately, you won"t have a future."
