Chapter 3142: Turncoat

~8 min read 1,460 words

The surging pillar of fire was like an evenly sliced cake, suddenly splitting into three pieces.

This wondrous sight lasted only two short breaths before the flames in the cave vanished.

But Yiju had at least bought Frostleaf a sliver of time.

Frostleaf suddenly raised his head, and a faint light lit up beside him.

Shaking off Yiju's interference, Bili Tian seized the time to activate "Shattered to Pieces."

After a few breaths of charging, the mandala petals spread throughout the entire stone cave connected spatial tangent lines between each pair; anything caught between them would be ruthlessly pierced through!

There were thousands of petals in this stone cave, therefore at least tens of thousands of tangent lines!

Their arrangement was dense and utterly patternless; no one could possibly dodge them.

After unleashing this divine art, Bili Tian also let out a long breath.

This was an extremely energy-consuming ultimate move, but it almost never missed. Especially now that Frostleaf was entangled by the Eye of Fear with his full attention, he had no leisure to cope with his attack.

This strike should finish it. With him and the Eye of Fear joining forces, what few enemies in the world could they not take down?

The Great Fire Spirit struck again, but Bili Tian didn't even glance at it. Sure enough, the Great Fire Spirit had just pounced to within ten feet of him when its body suddenly split into four and five pieces, shattering into a ground full of rock fragments!

The spatial strings densely covering the stone chamber were a death trap; the Great Fire Spirit had cut itself to pieces.

This was only a Yiju avatar, but once shattered it could not reform.

Frostleaf still stood in place, unmoving.

Bili Tian also clearly saw that dozens of strings had directly pierced through his body.

Leaving aside that heart-rending pain, Frostleaf now only had to move slightly and he would cut himself into dozens of pieces, following in the Great Fire Spirit's wake.

But Bili Tian simultaneously noticed that a faint light had lit up behind Frostleaf, perhaps a lamp.

But summoning an illumination spell at this time, wasn't that a bit too strange?

This thought had just flashed through his mind when Frostleaf moved.

In Bili Tian's incredulous gaze, this predator once again charged straight at him.

No Shattered to Pieces, no dismemberment; Frostleaf didn't lose a single part on his body, not even a single strand of hair.

This is————Bili Tian was greatly shocked: "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

No one can ignore his Shattered to Pieces divine art, not even the Holy Venerable of Spirit Void! What on earth is going on?

Frostleaf's movement through the death trap was too fluid, as if those deadly suspended threads were merely ordinary rays of light, passing through his body without producing any effect.

Frostleaf's movements through the death trap were too smooth, as if the deadly threads were merely ordinary light, passing through his body without any effect.

Bili Tian was also a veteran of a hundred battles; he immediately lowered his eyes to look at the shadows on the ground.

This stone cave was originally very dim, but after a small lamp inexplicably lit up, there were shadows on the ground.

Frostleaf pounced over, and his shadow naturally charged along with him.

And as everyone knows, shadows have form but no substance, and cannot be harmed by any external force. Frostleaf merely used the floating lamp to swap positions between his real body and his shadow, so his true body hid inside the shadow on the ground, and the Shattered to Pieces spell naturally had no effect on him.

Figuring this out, Bili Tian burned with rage. This countermeasure was practically tailor-made for him; it seems the War Alliance has researched his divine art talent quite thoroughly.

However, just as he now prepared to strike at the shadow on the ground, his vision suddenly went black.

Bili Tian hadn't figured out what was happening, but when he opened his eyes again, he had actually returned to the Heavenly Realm, returned to the Primeval Volcano.

It was only the briefest instant, yet also like countless years had passed; in this world filled with gunpowder smoke and raging fire, a figure slowly walked out from the end of the darkness.

It was precisely the nightmare Ancient God of Death he least wanted to see again in this life.

The moment this winged shadow appeared, Bili Tian couldn't help but roar: "Eye of Fear, get out here! What on earth is going on?"

No matter how dull he was, he knew the Ancient God of Death could not be resurrected. What appeared before him was merely a projection of his own inner fear.

Those memories of being enslaved by the Three Holy Gods, those painful pasts, madly scoured his nerves.

The Eye of Fear was clearly in cahoots with them, so why did it suddenly turn traitor at the critical moment?

But he would have no chance to find the answer to this question.

Because during his frozen phase, the Predator had already rushed before him, swapped his true body with the shadow, and raised claws flashing with cold light.

The floating lamp and tactics given by Nine Nether and Red General, truly effective.

His Gluttony time limit can be perfectly concluded with a gluttonous feast.

The situation on the Beijia front is unpredictable.

First the War Alliance coalition broke through the Spirit Void City walls. But immediately after, the Fear God's halo enveloped the foremost front where the two armies clashed, and even the Great Wind Army and Black Armor Army were deeply affected.

Combined with the Great Heavenly Demon's descent, Spirit Void City immediately launched a massive counterattack.

He Lingchuan had long since prepared a specific contingency for the Eye of Fear. So the War Alliance quickly adjusted their frontline offensive; the entire army switched to ranged attacks and released summoned beasts and Jin Jia Divine Generals and other combat forces unaffected by the fear halo in large batches to the front.

Simultaneously, the Earth Mother launched a fierce assault from underground.

Most importantly, the War Alliance's True Immortals had to step up to the plate at this time. On one hand, they had to do their utmost to relieve frontline pressure; on the other, their melee with the Great Heavenly Demons formally began!

Fortunately, the chaos on the front didn't last too long.

The War Alliance vanguard troops originally sunk in confusion and terror suddenly regained their wits, picked up their weapons again, adjusted their formation, and attacked once more.

Both sides understood: this was the Eye of Fear's divine ability being interrupted. As for whether temporarily or permanently, hard to say.

Anyway, under He Lingchuan's command, the War Alliance once again launched a fierce assault on Spirit Void City.

After a while longer, the little fire man burrowed out from beside He Lingchuan's feet and loudly reported: "Bili Tian has been killed by us."

He Lingchuan clapped his hands: "Excellent! What about the Eye of Fear?

All the Great Heavenly Demons of the Spirit Void multitude have already descended; frontline pressure is immense.

Yet Frostleaf single-handedly resolved two Great Heavenly Demons in one go: one the troublesome Space God, the other the Eye of Fear which provides enormous buffs to the enemy army.

Such proud battle achievements are exceptionally brilliant even among True Immortals. Don't forget, Frostleaf himself does not benefit from the War Alliance's Yuan Power.

Frostleaf took care of two major demons in one breath—one was the troublesome Space God, the other was the Fearful Eye that gave the enemy army a huge boost.

Such an impressive record would stand out even among true immortals. Don't forget, Frostleaf doesn't enjoy the alliance's spiritual power.

Lingxu City suffered a grave loss with the disappearance of these two great deities, and its strength was severely weakened.

It seems they were taken away by Shuangye. The little fire spirit pointed to the back of its hand: "Bili Tian's hand originally had an eye mark, and now it has been transferred to Shuangye's hand."

"What about him?"

The little fire spirit scratched its head: "He said he would come to the front lines, but in the blink of an eye, he vanished."

Before Shuangye disappeared, it too wondered why a ferocious devourer would be so determined to oppose the heavenly demons.

For the Great Fire Spirit, its true intention was to remain neutral, taking no side. Now it has no choice but to assist the War Alliance in defending Mount Xushan, and no choice but to aid He Lingchuan in battle—this is forced upon it by circumstances.

But Shuangye's reply to him was only three words: "I am happy."
