Chapter 1396: The Soul Heaven Emperor at the End of Mountains and Rivers

"Ancestor."

Although the Soul Clan members who had noticed this situation couldn't lift their heads to view the distant explosion, through their bloodline link they certainly knew the state of the Soul Emperor's remnant soul.

Obviously, their ancestor, in order to give their clan chief a chance at victory, sacrificed himself.

Bastard!

Soon after, the chiefs of the Soul Clan gritted their teeth and stared toward the distant Ancestor of the Spirit Sect.

After all, if it weren't for the other side, things wouldn't have come to this.

Their ancestor's remnant soul could not possibly just dissipate like this in this world!

Hmph

At the same time, while the Soul Clan members were furious beyond restraint, the distant Ancestor of the Spirit Sect was likewise vexed and agitated by the Soul Emperor's remnant soul.

After all, after being tossed around repeatedly, anyone would be so angry as to stomp their feet.

Come back!

But soon, he simply waved his hand, controlling the Phoenix Shadow in the distant explosion area to return.

After all, her previous attack named Phoenix Fall Heaven relied on astonishing speed.

It left the attacker unable to determine the attack trajectory, and finally the Phoenix Shadow struck and resolved it.

Although the native Dou Emperor remnant soul's true strength wasn't particularly formidable.

but it relied on the countless souls injected by the person opposite, plus the self-igniting divine soul and the grand formation below.

directly causing her previously controlled Phoenix Shadow attack to be delayed.

Thus, having lost the speed advantage, the Phoenix Fall Heaven also lost its meaning.

Cry!

Meanwhile, the distant Ice Phoenix, although it cried out again and again, returned to his side.

But compared to before, the Ice Phoenix's form had visibly become somewhat faint.

Pour all the essence blood you've collected into it!

The Soul Heaven Emperor within the Blood Formation, seeing the opponent actively recalling the Phoenix Shadow, immediately seized the opportunity and shouted.

At the moment of his shout, strands of Dou Qi mixed with sound swiftly reached the ears of the Soul Clan Dou Saints at the edge of Zhongzhou.

Meanwhile, he himself changed his hand seal.

He controlled the Slay Emperor Ghost Blood Blade, which had become much stronger after slaying the three-headed Heavenly Wolf remnant souls far away, to return.

As you command!

As for those Soul Clan Dou Saints still immersed in the grief of their ancestor's soul passing, upon hearing their clan chief's order they gritted their teeth and replied in unison.

Immediately afterwards, those Soul Clan Dou Saints who had slaughtered masses of living beings elsewhere while taking advantage of the gap in the battle between the Soul Heaven Emperor and the Spirit Sect Ancestor, each fiercely waved their hands.

Each produced a vast ocean of blood, rushing straight toward the blood-colored patterns on the ground below.

Whoosh!

Those massive blood-colored oceans, upon contacting the blood lines on the ground, instantly caused the latter to burst forth with dazzling blood radiance.

Immediately, those seas of blood were swiftly absorbed by the blood lines below.

Thereafter, this blood rushed along the blood lines, which resembled veins, and rapidly poured into the nearest blood-colored formation.

Finally, through the blood pillars at the centers of these formations, it was pumped into the boundless Blood Formation in the sky!

"Not bad, this rich essence blood—with these liquids, the attack power of my Slay Emperor Ghost Blood Blade can also be raised a notch."

Accompanied by the infusion of countless blood into the Slay Emperor Formation, the Soul Heaven Emperor instantly opened his arms with an expression of enjoyment and laughed evilly toward the heavens.

Go!

Immediately, he waved his great hand, sending the vast essence blood power within the Blood Formation forth, straight toward the ten-thousand-foot blood blade ahead of him.

Hum

Under the continuous infusion of fresh blood, the blood radiance on the Slay Emperor Ghost Blood Blade instantly flared.

With ongoing enhancement, this blood blade gradually seemed to grow a pair of blood-colored eyes radiating endless chill and killing intent, gazing upon this heaven and earth.

Even the Soul Clan Dou Saints far away felt their bodies turn cold, and they couldn't help but retreat a considerable distance.

"Not enough, not enough, the blood blade tells me it still needs greater power!"

As the vast blood sea within the Blood Formation was completely poured into the Slay Emperor Ghost Blood Blade, the Soul Heaven Emperor gazed at the extremely sinister giant blade before him, couldn't help but curl the corner of his mouth, and kept muttering.

Soon, he abruptly lowered his head, looking toward the Mantis Beast Soul he had previously suppressed below.

"Although it's a bit thin, we can still use it."

Having said that, he immediately directed the massive blood blade ahead to change direction.

Then he joined his index and middle fingers and shouted, "Go!"

Whoosh

As his words fell, the blood blade swiftly turned into a blood light, slashing diagonally downward past the pitch-black giant bell.

Scatter!

However, at the instant the blade reached the pitch-black giant bell on the ground, the distant Ancestor of the Spirit Sect suddenly made a hand seal with her jade hand and shouted sternly.

Bang

Accompanied by the instantaneous delivery of that command, within the dim black energy bell below, the feeble mantis remnant soul instantly exploded with a bang, turning into countless specks of light that drifted away in the air.

Swish!

Meanwhile, the blood light falling from the high sky also swiftly left a huge gap on the pitch-black giant bell, then transformed into a blood blade that pierced through space to arrive at the former position of the Mantis Beast Soul.

However, this blood blade still arrived a step too late.

Just before its attack could land, the Mantis Beast Soul had already dispersed into countless specks of light and then completely vanished.

Damned bastard!

Seeing the attempt to replenish energy fail, the Soul Heaven Emperor in the sky instantly sank his expression, a fierce look appearing on his face.

However, the Spirit Sect Ancestor showed no reaction to this.

After all, you've already beaten him to this point, what are you afraid of, you little der!

Even so, if it weren't for you, this dead native, having shouted out the ancestor, she would have already killed you.

However, the next moment, the Spirit Sect Ancestor moved his hand seal, then again pressed his index and middle fingers together, touching his own brow.

Immediately after, her jade finger shifted slightly, and a drop of blood mixed gold and ice-blue in color emerged from the phoenix pattern on her brow.

At the same time, a strand of silver hair quietly appeared in the ice-blue long hair on her calf.

"Whoosh!"

Afterwards, the Spirit Sect Ancestor flicked his finger, shooting that drop of blood into the huge ice phoenix phantom above.

"Cry!"

With the fusion of the gold-and-blue blood, the huge phoenix shadow in the sky suddenly burst forth with a dazzling ice-blue light.

And not long after, once that blue light had faded away.

then one could see that the enormous ice phoenix phantom's form instantly regained the solidity it had at the very beginning.

"Spirit·Ice Seal Heaven!"

Once the phantasm recovered, the Spirit Sect Ancestor without hesitation immediately tapped her jade finger into the void and shouted.

"Bang!"

As soon as the sound rang out, the huge phoenix phantom in the high sky violently shook its wings and shot off into the distance like an arrow released from a bow.

"Cry!"

As the ice phoenix soared upward, immediately, feather after feather made of deep-blue ice fell from its body.

And as the ice phoenix continued to fly, the fallen ice feathers grew more and more numerous.

Shortly thereafter, in no more than a thousandth of a breath, the people of the eastern, southern, western, and northern continents noticed.

No matter how they looked, the distant Zhongzhou Continent had already vanished from their sight.

Some saw nothing but deep-blue ice feathers flying all over the sky.

"Whoosh! whoosh! whoosh!"

And while those feathers kept drifting, they each shot out an ice-blue thread toward the surrounding feathers.

Soon, countless threads as thick as a finger constantly shuttle back and forth in the sky, colliding and linking.

In the interweaving of these threads, in the blink of an eye a "bird's nest" covering the entire Zhongzhou Continent was formed.

It tightly sealed off the Soul Heaven Emperor's Slay-Emperor Formation inside.

"Whoosh! whoosh!"

And as those threads kept shooting wildly, many of them struck head-on the countless small formations, blood pillars, and blood lines on the ground that made up the Slay-Emperor Formation.

At the same time, because these small formations were inferior in every way to the main body of the huge blood formation in the sky,

thus, under the incessant impact of those threads, spiderweb-like cracks began to appear on the formation disks, blood pillars, and blood lines.

Moreover, countless tiny frost gradually kept emerging on those things.

"Looks like only one move will decide the outcome."

At the same time, the Soul Heaven Emperor within the blood formation, seeing the blue ice layer rapidly appearing on the surrounding walls of the formation, could not help but flash a hint of resolve on his fierce face.

Now his blood reserves are almost exhausted, and his soul body has likewise been completely used up by the previous Soul Emperor's remnant spirit, which was expended to cancel out the opponent's earlier attack.

One could say that he is now nearly at the point of having exhausted all options.

But the blue-haired woman opposite him could still, as if nothing were wrong, continue launching one attack after another, each more powerful than the last.

From this scene, one can immediately tell who truly holds the advantage.

However, when the fight has reached this point, he is fully aware in his heart.

This time, if he cannot defeat that blue-haired woman opposite him in a single move,

then he will surely be the one who dies afterward.

"Bang! bang! bang!"

However, just as the Soul Heaven Emperor grew vexed and anxious from having exhausted his trump card, a dense cacophony of bursting sounds suddenly erupted across the Zhongzhou land.

"Hiss! hiss! hiss!"

Immediately afterward, the numerous light pillars supporting the huge blood formation in the sky flickered a few times and then went out, having exhausted their energy, and completely vanished from this world.

After the Soul Heaven Emperor noticed the commotion and looked down, he then discovered.

The numerous blood formations on his land were being covered by ice.

Then, due to internal and external imbalance, they exploded with a boom.

And this phenomenon continued to spread.

The number of blood formations he could control was rapidly decreasing as time passed.

As for the patterns connecting the various circular blood formations on the land, they were likewise continually being burst apart by the ice.

This scene was just like a healthy body being continually destroyed by "cancer cells".

Moreover, he was completely powerless against this trend, able only to stare blankly at it all.

Powerless, he waited for the Slay-Emperor Formation to reach the end of its "life".

Gazing at the formations constantly being destroyed, the energy in the air was continually absorbed and frozen by those threads.

At this moment, the Soul Heaven Emperor also felt utterly without recourse.

His blood and soul reserves are now both exhausted.

Slaughter his own clansmen to replenish?

No, that is already too late.

After summoning the ice phantasm of the Ice Phoenix that filled him with deep despair, the blue-haired woman could not possibly just watch him replenish his energy.

Just as he had just wanted to slaughter that mantis beast soul to replenish the Slay-Emperor Ghost Blood Blade, he would surely be stopped by the opponent.

Could it be that I, the Soul Heaven Emperor, will become the Dou Emperor with the shortest lifespan after Ancient Emperor Tuoshe?

Gazing at the sunset on the distant western mountain range, the Soul Heaven Emperor felt a bitter smile rise in his heart.

I have stabilized my Dou Emperor realm up to this point, and it's still less than a day!

Could it be that I will become the first Dou Emperor in recorded history to live less than a day?

With the sunset fading, the now-hopeless Soul Heaven Emperor was like an old man at death's door, swaying on the verge of collapse.

In that case, let's fight to the death over there!

But soon, the Soul Heaven Emperor gritted his teeth, slightly lifted his head, and stared at the Spirit Communion Sect's Ancestor opposite him with a fierce and determined gaze.

Old thing, you want my life? Today we'll see if you have that ability. Hahaha!

As he spoke, the Soul Heaven Emperor immediately threw his head back and laughed wildly, sensing that today might be his final battle, appearing mad.

Pfft!

Immediately afterward, he suddenly spat out another mass of essence blood the size of a chicken egg, which he smeared onto the ten-thousand-zhang blood blade.

And with the eruption of such a vast amount of essence blood, his full head of black hair instantly turned white.

Without sparing such self-inflicted damage to your origin, even if you survive this battle, you will likely suffer severe trauma; even your Dou Emperor realm might not be sustainable—are you trying to get yourself killed?

Seeing the distant blood-colored giant tens of thousands of zhang tall actually spurt out a chicken-egg-sized mass of essence blood, the Spirit Communion Sect's Ancestor's half-transparent pale-blue pupils suddenly contracted, and a solemn expression instantly appeared on her beautiful little face as she spoke in a deep voice.

Hehe, even if my strength drops and I suffer whatever injuries, that's a matter for later. But now, if I don't do this, I won't even have a sliver of a chance to defeat you, let alone talk about the future.

As he spoke, the Soul Heaven Emperor's aura also rapidly weakened.

However, his aura was indeed growing weaker and weaker.

Yet the white-haired Soul Heaven Emperor's ferocious, ruthless, reckless smile on his face was actually growing more intense.

Then he swiftly stretched out his big hand and directly grabbed the extremely sharp Slay-Emperor Ghost Blood Blade before him.

【132】 Pfft!

Pfft!

At the instant he grasped the handleless blood blade, the Ghost Blood Blade swiftly cut into his palm.

Yet, at this moment, the Soul Heaven Emperor had never heard of his own palm gushing with blood.

He allowed the blood within his body to continually flow out, afterward being completely devoured by the blood blade in his hand.

Immediately afterward, the Soul Heaven Emperor's white hair flew loose, and with an expression of extreme ferocity, he stepped one foot across the void.

Old thing, come and die!

As the blood blade in his hand was repeatedly raised, his towering figure tens of thousands of zhang tall shot forward, and in the blink of an eye he had already run out of the blood formation, rushing straight toward the Spirit Communion Sect's Ancestor. (End of chapter)
