Chapter 1391: Blood Emperor's Body

However, the Soul Heaven Emperor had just trapped the beast soul, and before it could even take a breath.

A streak of blue light flashed from the horizon, then without hesitation unleashed a palm strike, slamming directly into him.

「Bang! 」

Suddenly attacked, in an instant the Soul Heaven Emperor felt his chest violently struck by a tremendous force, making his entire viscera feel as if they had been displaced.

Subsequently, within a blue energy shockwave, the Soul Heaven Emperor's body instantly turned into a black shadow and was hurled thousands of miles away.

However, after blasting the Soul Heaven Emperor away, the Ancestor of the Spirit Link Sect did not immediately pursue.

Instead, she waved her jade hand, unleashing a pillar of icy light that directly shattered the pitch-black great bell below.

「Whoosh」

As soon as the obstruction shattered, the enraged Mantis Beast Soul immediately flapped its wings, continuously waving its two blade-like arms as it flew out.

「Chase! 」

Upon seeing the beast soul break free, the Ancestor of the Spirit Link Sect wasted no words, instantly turning into a streak of light and pursuing the place where the Soul Heaven Emperor had vanished.

As for the Mantis Beast Soul, seeing this, it likewise waved its two blades furiously, giving chase at extreme speed.

After all, that fellow had left it in such a sorry state.

How could this debt possibly be let go just like that!

Meanwhile, while the Ancestor of the Spirit Link Sect was rescuing the Mantis Beast Soul, on the other side the Soul Heaven Emperor.

Although somewhat disheveled, he successfully returned to the Central Province region of the sky, which was filled with blood clouds.

As soon as he arrived, he immediately released those Soul Clan Dou Saints.

Then he mobilized the energy of heaven and earth to heal the deep lacerations on his palm and suppress the icy force on his chest that continually sought to freeze him.

Of course, that chill on his chest was not particularly noticeable.

But on his palm, the cuts that had sliced through his flesh and left deep gashes on his sturdy bones were enough to make one shiver.

"Chief, what's happened?"

As for those Soul Clan Dou Saints, at this moment they were all dazed and dizzy.

After all, the Soul Heaven Emperor had been pressed for time, with no chance to look after them, and besides, the Dou Emperor's flight speed is incredibly fast.

The g-forces they experienced were not insignificant.

Now, having finally come to a stop, everyone naturally needed to recover.

After finally recovering, Hun Shengtian immediately asked with a puzzled expression: "Chief, what's happened?"

"Everyone prepare for battle; the Ancestor of the Spirit Link Sect can summon the remnant soul of a tenth-rank magic beast, but without using the prior preparations, we certainly cannot destroy that fellow."

Upon hearing this, the Soul Heaven Emperor, while fully exerting himself to recover from his injuries, also explained the situation to everyone.

Immediately afterward, he added: "In this Dou Emperor battle, you definitely cannot participate; instead, go help me replenish the grand formation."

"What?!"

Hearing these words, the Soul Clan Dou Saints were instantly shocked and dismayed.

After all, a tenth-rank magic beast is a terrifying monster comparable to a human Dou Emperor powerhouse!

But soon they recalled their clan leader's terrifying flight speed from earlier and realized there was little time left.

Upon thinking this, the Nine-Star Dou Saint Hun Yao immediately turned and shouted: "Everyone, get ready now to assist the clan chief in employing the later means!"

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, the other Soul Clan Dou Saints immediately reacted, and in the blink of an eye they all vanished from the spot.

Even though Hun Yao did not explicitly say it, they still understood what the preparations he mentioned were.

After all, that previous battle had been so arduous that they had personally seen their clan leader draw upon part of the essence blood reserves of Central Province.

Therefore, considering now, if they were to later engage in a fierce battle with that Dou Emperor opponent, they would surely need an enormous amount of essence blood support.

Thus, for their clan leader at present, the most important thing is none other than replenishing the essence blood.

"Heh heh, you people aren't fond of fighting over the legacies of those killed by the clan chief's Soul-Devouring Absolute Life Formation, are you? Well then, today let those legacies become even richer."

As he spoke, those Soul Clan Dou Saints instantly scattered, rushing off to other parts of Central Province.

For they still hoped to seize Wu Nie Tun Yan from Lin Feng's hands, using its special ability to absorb the Dou Emperor bloodlines of other clans' remnants, thereby strengthening their Soul Clan's bloodline power.

So now is the time to use essence blood.

The Soul Clan people naturally prioritized those deemed useless, namely individuals without Dou Emperor bloodlines.

As for the Soul Heaven Emperor, under his mobilization of vast heavenly and earthly energy for healing, those external wounds also gradually recovered.

Moreover, that chill in his chest was likewise temporarily suppressed by him.

「Bang! 」

However, at that moment, two earth-shattering sounds of space being torn apart rang out from the distant sky.

As the Soul Heaven Emperor lifted his gaze, he immediately saw the Ancestor of the Spirit Link Sect and the Mantis Beast Soul.

They directly shattered the space along the way at breakneck speed, swiftly pursuing all the way to the Central Province region.

"Soul Heaven Emperor, while you haven't yet reached that point, don't bother with futile struggles—surrender. In the face of absolute strength, no matter how you stubbornly resist, you will ultimately become nothing more than a departed soul under our sect's command."

Upon arriving at the Central Province mainland, the blue-haired woman glanced at the scenery of this unfamiliar continent; however, upon seeing it filled with slaughter and oceans of blood, her brows furrowed slightly and she gazed indifferently at the opposing Soul Heaven Emperor.

Through the current state of this continent, and the blood sea permeating the sky with the same aura previously used by the opponent,

she now faintly realizes that the opponent's earlier actions were meant to lure her here.

Although she knows this is the opponent's scheme, she feels not the slightest fear.

After all, as she herself previously said, in the face of absolute strength,

all struggle will be futile.

「Swish! Swish! 」

As for the blue-haired woman's words, the Mantis Beast Soul also waved its blades a few times to show agreement.

At the same time, it felt equally furious toward the bastard who had just left it in a mess.

After all, you know that massive bell that fell earlier, imprisoning it within.

Do you realize how much psychological damage it caused to that less‑than‑100,000‑year‑old insect baby?

Do you know?

"Heh, saying that now is probably still premature."

And the Soul Emperor did not take the Spirit Communication Sect's threatening words to heart; instead, a slight grin curled his lips, revealing a snarling smile.

At least, that's how it appears on the surface.

"Oh, it seems you have a trump card prepared in advance on this continent, don't you?"

Hearing this, the Patriarch of the Spirit Communication Sect lightly flicked his long straight blue hair at the back of his vertical calf, and a faint smile instantly graced his exquisitely beautiful oval face.

However, immediately after, she thought of something, and the Mantis Beast Soul beside her suddenly flapped its wings and vanished.

"Within my territory, your speed has already become ineffective!"

Seeing the mantis move, the Soul Emperor, who had already experienced the opponent's great speed, spoke demeaning words, yet his body behaved very obediently.

He instantly formed rapid hand seals, and the massive Blood-Colored Energy cloud in the sky surged up at once.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Yet the next moment, Blood-Colored Lightning rained down from the sky like a torrential downpour.

Thick bolts of Blood-Colored Thunder, each a thousand zhang thick, fell straight from the heavens, striking the ground with a deafening explosion.

They turned into countless Blood-Colored Thunder Serpents, ravaging the earth and leaving behind deep pits thousands of zhang wide.

"Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!"

Under the dense, irregular barrage of Blood-Colored Thunder, the speed‑specialized Mantis Beast Soul could only scream and scramble back.

After all, without a body to protect it, no matter how strong, it is merely a lingering soul.

Facing those Blood-Colored Thunder bolts, which gathered the resentful qi of countless beings, a soul‑body like it would never dare to touch them.

"It seems you still have a few skills!"

Seeing her Beast Soul's attack blocked, the blue‑haired woman's translucent eyes showed a hint of seriousness.

After all, if she lost the Beast Soul's aid, a dead‑lock with the opponent would be inevitable.

Even if she eliminated the opponent, she would likely end up dead or maimed.

Realizing this, she immediately formed a seal with her jade‑white hand in front of her.

Immediately thereafter, the surrounding heaven‑and‑earth energy surged like wind and clouds.

A thousand‑zhang blue circular pattern materialized high above her back.

It resembled an icy‑blue full moon, hovering in the sky.

"Go!"

The formation completed, and the blue‑haired woman instantly pointed her jade hand at the dense Blood-Colored Energy cloud in the sky.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

In an instant, countless hundred‑zhang ice pillars, as if money were no object, erupted from the pattern and shot toward the massive blood cloud in the distant sky.

"Thinking you can freeze my Imperial Essence reserves with ice—no way!"

And the Soul Emperor, upon seeing this, could not fail to read the opponent's intent; he let out a cold snort and slammed a fierce palm at those ice pillars.

"Rumble—rumble—rumble!"

With the Soul Emperor's palm strike, the thick Blood‑Colored cloud high in the heavens roiled again in an instant.

Then a massive energy palm, ten thousand zhang tall, thundered out of the blood cloud, charging straight forward.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The next moment, the giant palm collided with the dense ice pillars; under the palm's massive force, the blue‑haired woman's ice pillars could not hold, shattering into countless powder upon impact.

As for the massive Blood‑Colored Energy palm seal, it surged forward like an unbraked train, rumbling onward.

Seeing this, the blue‑haired woman's dark eyebrows knit, and she issued an attack order to the Mantis Beast Soul in her mind.

"Swoosh! Swoosh!"

Receiving the command, it hesitated not, instantly wielding its agile, sharp blades; in the blink of an eye it launched dozens of invisible wind blades, stronger than before.

The wind blades formed a long line, one after another, firing at the Blood‑Colored giant palm.

Accompanied by the countless invisible wind blades, they continuously sliced the Blood‑Colored giant palm.

"Sizzle!"

After repeated impacts, with a sizzle, the massive palm was shredded into countless tiny fragments by the dense wind blades.

Finally, with a bang, it turned into countless specks of light and vanished from this world.

"Hmph, old woman, don't think that regaining Dou Emperor power lets you contend with me. Since you force my hand, today I will see this through, no matter the cost!"

Seeing his tactics being systematically countered by the duo's cooperation, the Soul Emperor's complexion suddenly grew unusually solemn.

Immediately after, the surrounding Blood‑Colored Lightning abruptly weakened.

Then he took a deep breath, and before the Patriarch of the Spirit Communication Sect could intervene, the Soul Emperor suddenly opened his mouth wide.

In an instant, an unparalleled suction surged from his mouth, shooting toward the distant heavens.

Under this powerful suction, the blood clouds that had filled the entire Zhongzhou sky roiled violently in that moment.

Immediately after, the blood clouds, without warning, all turned into dense blood light that swept over the sky and rushed into his mouth.

The thick blood clouds above the sky had gathered the essence blood of countless Zhongzhou beings.

But at this moment, the Soul Emperor alone swallowed them whole!

At the same time, under his swift summons, the blood clouds that had shrouded Zhongzhou for over half a year rapidly dissipated.

With the massive blood clouds being swallowed by the Soul Emperor's belly, the warm sunlight in the sky…

It was also at that instant that it poured down again, falling onto the icy Zhongzhou Continent.

This caused the apocalyptic atmosphere over the Zhongzhou Continent to dissipate considerably in an instant.

However, that somewhat glaring blazing sun.

It should have made many who experienced this disaster feel extremely excited.

But at this moment, however, few people would pay attention to it.

As for the reason, one is that the Zhongzhou Continent, where this disaster has not yet completely passed,

This time, there actually were two experts suspected to be Dou Emperors who launched a great battle here.

Prior to that destructive power, during the period when the two earlier exchanged blows,

The living beings below were directly shaken to death, numbering in the millions or more!

At the same time, that rich blood qi was again sucked away by the blood clouds above, becoming part of them.

As for the second, it is that now, a large number of experts have suddenly appeared from somewhere unknown.

At this very moment, they are lying in wait at the edge of the Zhongzhou Continent.

If on the Zhongzhou Continent, someone trying to flee the battle of the experts above passes through their ambush site, they will instantly be shaken into blood mist by the opposing side.

Then, just like those before, they are sucked away by the blood clouds above, becoming part of them.

So, facing this situation, whether they are natives of Zhongzhou or outsiders who came to plunder the legacies of the dead cultivators, can they be happy?

Click-click

And just then, when the living beings on the Zhongzhou Continent below suffered another great calamity, Hun Tian Di in the sky, accompanied by his continual devouring of that towering blood cloud, saw his body also begin to rapidly expand.

In just a brief moment, it transformed from its original normal form into a towering blood-colored giant fifty to sixty thousand zhang tall!

Rich blood light now flickered and writhed rapidly across its body.

Finally, it transformed into an equally astonishingly large blood-colored armor that completely enveloped his body, which stood tens of thousands of zhang tall.

And when the transformation ceased, the blood-colored giant that Hun Tian Di had become stood silently between heaven and earth.

Its height seemed to directly shroud the entire sky.

Even the sunlight behind his body was blocked at this moment, disappearing once again!

And at the same time, under the shocking visual impact brought by his enormous form,

No one would doubt that, at this moment, if Hun Tian Di threw a fierce punch, he could shatter the earth within a radius of ten thousand li around his fist into a deep abyss!

Haha, old woman, how is my Blood Emperor Body?

The Dou Emperor's Body having been successfully condensed, Hun Tian Di, whose battle power had greatly increased, suddenly surged in confidence and could not help but laugh wildly to the sky.

Moreover, his Dou Emperor strength, coupled with the boost from his enormous size,

As soon as his laughter rang out, that terrifying power instantly shattered the space within a radius of ten thousand zhang around him, almost completely reducing it to nothing in an instant.

Such power is so great that even a Nine-Star Peak Dou Saint expert coming here would instantly turn into a cloud of blood mist.

And after his laughter ended, Hun Tian Di immediately lowered his head, fixing his gigantic blood-red pupils on the blue-haired woman below.

After a brief silence, he spoke in a voice like thunder: "Old woman, unleash your Dou Emperor's Body. I have lived for thousands of years and have never seen another Dou Emperor's Dou Emperor Body. Today, let me open my eyes."

And as he spoke, wind and lightning surged between his inhalations and exhalations.

When he exhaled, the entire heaven-and-earth energy of the Zhongzhou Continent was affected by Hun Tian Di, producing tremendous fluctuations.

As for that sound, it rolled like thunder, shaking hearts and souls.

Even a Dou Saint expert, even if a Dou Saint were to come here, would not dare to approach within ten thousand zhang.

From this we can see, Hun Tiandi, who had manifested the body of a Dou Emperor, is completely a different realm from his previous self! (End of chapter)
