Chapter 125: The Demonic Well Opens, Fallen Winged Human Tribe, The Battle Against An Honorable
Atop the altar, a great light shone from the scepter in Lan Yu’s grasps.
A Holy Radiant Intent filled the whole area.
Despite that, the Lord of the Winged Human Tribe began to notice that something was amiss as the spell’s power on the altar had no signs of strengthening.
On the contrary, it was becoming weaker!
“What’s the meaning of this? What’s going on?” The Lord of the Winged Human Tribe’s expression changed and he quickly glanced at the elder who was tasked to guard the altar.
Instead, he saw a delighted look on the elder’s face — he was not shocked at all.
“Third Elder, what’s the meaning of this!”
The Lord of the Winged Human Tribe questioned.
“Haha, what’s the meaning of this? As you can see here, the spell will disappear soon and the reign of the Demonic Realms will start today!”
The Third Elder laughed delightfully.
“Guards, take down that man!” The Lord of the Winged Human Tribe ordered coldly.
However, an overbearing poise immediately erupted from the Third Elder’s body, which sent the guards, who were rus.h.i.+ng towards him from all directions, flying.
Then, a black pair of wings opened behind the Third Elder.
Everyone who saw this immediately turned cold and grim.
“Fallen Winged Human! The Third Elder has become one of the Fallen Winged Humans!”
“D*mn it, what the h.e.l.l is going on here.”
“All of this is a part of the Third Elder’s plans! How despicable!”
Chu Kuangren activated his Eye of Revelation to find out more information about the Third Elder.
“Third Elder Jue Xuan, cultivation level – Honorable Realm, Fallen Winged Human Tribe, a tribe of the Demonic Realms that formed after a normal winged human was corrupted by Demonic Qi…”
“This is not good. Go and stop Lan Yu, now!” The Lord of the Winged Human Tribe commanded loudly.
However, it was already too late.
A black aura suddenly erupted from the altar, and its powerful impact directly blew Lan Yu off.
Chu Kuangren’s figure disappeared in a flash and caught her in time. “You alright?”
“I’m fine, but I failed.”
Lan Yu frowned. “I did exactly what the elder told me without any mistakes, yet why did the spell’s power weaken?”
“Haha, because what I taught you is not the method to restore the spell’s power at all, but how to reverse the effect of the spell instead!” The Third Elder laughed.
Atop the altar, gusts of black air rose into the skies.
A large black hole then appeared in the void where surges of horrifying Demonic Qi could be seen seeping out from it. This made everyone at the scene deeply frightened about what was coming next.
“This is the Demonic Well!”
“G.o.dd*mn it, now that the spell has disappeared, the Demonic Well is opened once again!”
Multiple figures dashed out from the Demonic Well. All of them had black wings and a strong aura to them.
“The Fallen Winged Human Tribe!” said the Lord of the Winged Humans as he gritted his teeth.
Although the Winged Human Tribe may have guarded the Demonic Well for many years, many of the tribe’s people had been corrupted by the Demonic Qi too. Those corrupted winged humans betrayed their race and escaped to the Underworld Demonic Realm, eventually forming the Fallen Winged Human Tribe.
The Winged Human and Fallen Winged Human Tribes were said to be eternal enemies. So both sides became extremely enraged when they met face to face once more, and they immediately drew their blades against each other. A battle instantly broke out.
“Haha, after so many years, the spell on the Demonic Well has finally disappeared.” A dark-haired man of the Fallen Winged Human Tribe laughed.
That man was the current Lord of the Fallen Winged Human Tribe. Donned in a set of black armor while armed with a long spear, that man’s aura was incredibly domineering.
“Lan Yu, go reactivate the spell. Just do the opposite of what Third Elder has taught you and you’ll be fine,” the Lord of the Winged Human Tribe ordered.
“Got it.”
Lan Yu nodded and once again headed towards the altar.
However, the Fallen Winged Humans had no reason to make it easy for her as a few of them rushed towards her, erupting their Demonic Qi and Daoist Rhyme at the same time.
“You want to restore the spell? In your dreams!”
However, those few who had tried to get close to Lan Yu were instantly slaughtered by multiple surges sword qi!
It was Chu Kuangren who made the shot.
Without any obstruction, Lan Yu once again arrived at the altar. Holding the Scepter of Light, she drew upon her Daoist Rhyme and activated the spell on the altar.
Upon seeing this, the Lord of the Fallen Winged Humans ordered, “Everyone, do whatever you can to stop that woman. We must never let her reactivate the spell!”
“Yes, my Lord!”
Countless Fallen Winged Humans then dashed towards Lan Yu with killing intent.
Naturally, the Lord of the Winged Humans would not sit idly and watch.
“Hmph, we’re ones you have to face!”
“Traitors of the Winged Human Tribe, let me bring you to your death!”
The sky was filled with black and white pairs of wings that clashed against each other — a battle between light and dark had begun.
Surges of Daoist Rhymes rang out as spiritual powers collided. As feathers and wings fell to the ground, a horrifying aura began to envelop the skies around that area.
Meanwhile, all Chu Kuangren did was beside the altar and guarded Lan Yu cautiously as she carried out her task. He was bothered about the battle in the skies.
Whoever dared approach Lan Yu would face his merciless killing.
It did not matter if they were Nascent Soul Realm or Paradise Realm cultivators, as all were no match for his Single Strike Technique.
Boom!
A large black palm, that was enveloped with a surge of Daoist Rhyme, blasted out as if it was going to collapse the surrounding void, and its Supreme Poise instantly locked on to Chu Kuangren.
Faced with such an attack, Chu Kuangren’s expression became slightly stern. He grabbed his Descendant Self Sword and unleashed a dazzling purple sword beam.
When the sword qi and large palm collided, it sent terror-filled shockwaves everywhere.
The power was so terrifying that it ruptured the grounds and shook the surrounding.
Not far away, the Third Elder’s expression changed in horror. “I can’t believe this guy possesses such horrifying strengths. To think he was able to block my attack!”
Then, if he were to injure himself for the sake of showing off, that attack of his was not something that an ordinary Honorable could hold back against.
‘I didn’t expect a mere Battle Monarch like Chu Kuangren to have such terrifying combat ability!’
“Seventh Forefather, look out after Lan Yu for me.”
Chu Kuangren said to the void and he glared at the Third Elder as a glint flashed across his eyes. The sword-based Daoist Rhyme in his body gradually rose.
“Ever since my last closed-door meditation, I’ve never actually gone all out before. For an Honorable like you, I wonder how much strength do I need to use?”
“This matter doesn’t concern you, Chu Kuangren. You may be able to survive if you leave now, or else your death shall be certain!”
The Third Elder said coldly.
“This invasion from the Demonic Realm concerns the whole world, so can it have nothing to do with me? Besides, the one you’re attacking is one of my people!” With an indifferent look in Chu Kuangren’s eyes, he swung the Descendant Self Sword in his hand and unleashed a chilling gush of Daoist Rhyme.
Both the Sword of The Heavens and Green Lotus Sword Song Transformations were deployed simultaneously.
“What a terrifying aura. Is that person really a Battle Monarch?” The Third Elder’s pupils shrunk as he spoke in disbelief.
However, many things that shocked him even more soon followed as Chu Kuangren activated his Battle Monarch Domain which contained such horrifying strength that it was enough to make an Honorable like him feel intimidated.
‘This guy is at the Battle Monarch Realm?’
‘What kind of f*cking Battle Monarch possesses such horrifying combat abilities!’
Fear then started to grow within the Third Elder. Perhaps he would be able to stand a chance in this fight if he was still in his prime.
Yet due to his injured body, he could only use about half his strength.
‘I’m afraid this battle will be a close call.’
“What is it? Are you afraid?” Chu Kuangren looked at the Third Elder’s hesitant expression and could not help but sneer.
Cultivation not only included techniques and skills but the Daoist core as well!
Considering how the Third Elder was already afraid, this meant that Chu Kuangren had gained an upper-hand over him. Hence he did not wait for his opponent to reply before he swung his sword out.
The horrible sword ray covered and shrouded the sky. It was filled with such unparallel offensive Daoist Rhyme, it was as if it could destroy everything in the world!
Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique!
Faced with that terrifying sword technique, the Third Elder’s expression suddenly changed as he raised his hands and unleashed a palm attack to block it.
Violent bursts of energy formed into a giant palm before it collided with the sword ray. Within the instant that those two energies made contact, a large explosion erupted and filled the surroundings with smoke and dust.
The Third Elder was pushed back by several hundred feet.
All of a sudden, he felt a chilling fear within his heart as Chu Kuangren appeared behind him from out of nowhere.
Down came one slash and its sharp sword qi alone was frightening enough to make the hair on his back stand!
The Third Elder desperately tried to evade, but he was still not as fast as the attack that landed on him.
With a tear, a black wing was forcibly torn apart from the Third Elder’s body before his screams echoed throughout the battlefield and blood spurted everywhere.
