Chapter 308: No One Could See That Scene
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The remaining dozen or so Quasi-Saint Realm experts were furious. However, their roars were futile. Facing the might of a Saint Realm powerhouse, they could only watch helplessly as their allies around them turned into b.l.o.o.d.y mists one after another. Their divine souls did not even have time to flee.
“Long Wu, don’t let him get away,” Su Chen said in a deep voice as he stood to the side, coldly observing it all.
“I know!” Hearing this, Long Wu gently nodded.
In the next moment, all kinds of runes appeared in her palm as she raised her hand slightly. They were densely packed like raindrops, br.i.m.m.i.n.g with an aura of annihilation.
One after another, runes flew out, each as enormous as the sun and wreathed in divine radiance. This was the purest sword Qi, manifesting terrifying power in the void. The power unleashed by this sword Qi was enough to annihilate heaven and earth. Even the sky seemed to be pierced, and even the sun in the sky paled at this moment. Runes as vast as the sea. Among the vast expanse of runes, sword Qi as brilliant as stars descended, resembling a setting sun in the west.
Boom!
The Qin family’s saint, who had already vanished into the void, was instantly blasted back out. Immediately after, billions of divine rays descended, submerging the area where the Qin family’s saint had been.
With him at the center, within a radius of several thousand miles, a ma.s.sive area of mountain ranges exploded and disintegrated into dust. Even some of the remaining Quasi-Saint Realm experts and dark creatures including the Qin family’s saints were enveloped. Without even a chance to scream, they were reduced to ashes.
“Master, how do you want to deal with this person?” Long Wu gently clenched her fist. Immediately after, a remnant soul was grabbed from the rubble.
It was the remnant soul of the Qin family’s saint, now extremely feeble. Long Wu’s attack had already shattered his sacred weapon, and the bell that once held an aura capable of suppressing the ages now lay in ruins. It was covered in dense cracks, a shocking sight as if it would completely shatter with the slightest touch.
“Su Chen, you’ve caused great trouble! There was still room for compromise before, but now, with so many experts of the various factions fallen, they will surely fight you to the death! Especially my Qin family! With a quasi-emperor guarding us, even if you go to the underworld, you cannot escape death!”
The Qin family’s saint remained stubbornly defiant. Despite his divine soul being pathetically weak, he still spoke coldly. By this point, he understood clearly that he had no chance of escape. With Su Chen’s personality, he would never let him off. After all, he had just killed the Spirit Race’s saint. Why would he fear a Qin family’s saint? Rather than groveling and begging for mercy here, it was better to remain tough and not lose face for the Qin family.
“If I remember correctly, news seems unable to spread from the Demon Slaying Altar,” said Su Chen, sizing up the Qin family’s saint in front of him with deep meaning.
“Hmm?” As soon as he spoke, the Qin family’s saint was shocked, a sense of foreboding welling up as he said solemnly, “Su Chen, what do you mean?”
The Demon Slaying Altar was a bizarre place where the laws of heaven and earth were greatly distorted. It was very similar to the world where the dark creatures resided, extremely oppressive against cultivators’ divine sense. It was hard to even emanate one’s divine sense here, let alone transmit messages externally.
Earlier, he had dared to attack the Golden Crow Clan and the Inky Sea Island because he knew the news could not spread. Even if he killed them, no one would take notice. After leaving, he could completely shift the blame onto Su Chen. After all, the Qin family held no enmity with the Golden Crow clan, the Inky Sea Island, and the other factions. But Su Chen was different. Su Chen harbored deep hatred against them. It was obvious who these forces would believe.
Yet now, Su Chen’s words stirred up fear and anxiety within him. An ominous premonition spread from the depths of his being.
“However, you’ve forgotten that there’s something in this world called…” At this, Su Chen smiled faintly, a strange curl touching his lips.
Immediately after, a milky white stone appeared in his palm. This stone was not large, about the size of a baby’s fist. But its main purpose plunged the Qin family’s saint into despair!
“The Image Stone!” As Su Chen’s final three words fell, the Qin family’s saint began to feel afraid.
The Image Stone could self-evidently record everything happening. Thinking of what he had just done, a chill ran through the Qin family’s saint’s heart. If Su Chen released this stone, his attack on the Golden Crow Clan and other factions would be exposed! By that time, whether the Golden Crow Clan and other factions joined forces against Su Chen or the Qin family was uncertain!
“Despicable!” the Qin family’s saint uttered coldly.
“Haha…” Su Chen laughed aloud. “Despicable? Since you want to oppose me, why can’t I take precautions?”
Initially, Su Chen had only wanted to doc.u.ment the situation inside the Demon Slaying Altar. After all, his plan for entering this time was to locate the lair of the dark creatures. With this image stone, he could naturally record a safe route. But unexpectedly, this originally insignificant act had miraculous effects!
“Don’t forget, it was the Saint King Realm powerhouse behind you who killed the experts of the Inky Sea Island earlier!”
“Their deaths have nothing to do with me!” The Qin family’s saint fixed his gaze on Su Chen as he spoke.
“Unfortunately…” Hearing this, Su Chen shook his head slightly, a regretful expression on his face. “What a pity! The people outside have no way of witnessing that scene!”
Having said this, Su Chen paid the Qin family’s saint no more heed and turned to Long Wu, breezily saying, “Kill him.”
“Yes!” Long Wu nodded slightly. In the next moment, she pointed out, and the Qin family’s saint’s head exploded. A divine soul was utterly annihilated.
The Qin family’s saint thus dissipated into thin air, no longer existing in this world. After handling everything, Su Chen finally turned around and looked thoughtfully at the dark creatures not far away.
In the aftermath of the earlier battle, these dark creatures had fallen countless times, only to resurrect each time. Of the original five dark creatures, only one had been completely destroyed. The remaining four were still alive and unharmed. It was as if the repeated destruction of their bodies had no effect on them.
“As expected of dark creatures! Such methods are really enviable!” Su Chen sincerely praised. Upon hearing this, the bodies of the four remaining dark creatures suddenly shuddered.. These words did not sound like praise to their ears!
