Chapter 525: Wanting to Return to the Great Xia

To this day, Chen Yan still has not destroyed this ultimate move of the Ancient Beast of Dreams.

He does not know what exactly will be brought to Chen Yan once this ultimate move successfully condenses.

But Chen Yan has also found the weakness of the Ancient Beast of Dreams.

The opponent's brain was fine even after being pierced through by Chen Yan, but just as Chen Yan unleashed the 【Swastika Expansion Dragon Kill】 at the Ancient Beast of Dreams.

The opponent's left hand, however, instantly retreated behind its back.

The opponent's two hands were actually there the whole time, just wrapped by the billions of tentacles extending from within its robes.

This action contained a massive amount of information.

When in the most critical moment, a person will always subconsciously look at, or protect, the thing most important to them.

Yet it was also at this moment.

Chen Yan's expression shifted slightly.

Crack!

A pitch-black thunderbolt instantly emerged from behind the Ancient Beast of Dreams, transforming into a sharp blade that stabbed into the brain wound the Ancient Beast of Dreams had yet to recover from.

Myriad Prison Nether Thunder!

Myriad Prison Nether Thunder moved like flowing water; after finishing this strike, it hurriedly slipped back from the second-floor stairs.

On the first floor, Chen Yunyou stood dazed, looking at Myriad Prison Nether Thunder in disbelief.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle...

Myriad Prison Nether Thunder flicked its thunder-tongue, as if showing off.

"Perhaps this Ancient Beast isn't that formidable." Chen Yunyou frowned; he dared not go up, but he had sensed Myriad Prison Nether Thunder's strike.

As it turned out, even he hadn't expected that Myriad Prison Nether Thunder, a Sun-Level Grade D God Seed, could actually deal a painful blow to that Ancient Beast.

"Ka!"

The Ancient Beast of Dreams let out a sharp cry.

She was focused entirely on dealing with Chen Yan and never expected to be ambushed by other things.

It was also at this moment.

The fleeting opportunity belonging to Chen Yan arrived.

The Ancient Beast of Dreams was still screeching, yet one blood-colored crystal after another instantly pierced into her physical body!

The fourth control array disk!

The body of the Ancient Beast of Dreams stiffened; she had already seen the figure of Chen Yan rushing toward her.

Hum!

Malice erupted!

Endless illusions pierced directly through the blood-colored crystals controlling the Ancient Beast of Dreams.

Within Chen Yan's world, he suddenly saw tentacles covered in eyeballs growing out of his own flesh.

Every pupil reflected a different way for Chen Yan to die: being shredded, being dissolved, being incubated...

The scenes within every eyeball were like boiling hot oil poured into Chen Yan's mind, seeking to devour and extinguish Chen Yan's soul.

As a Pure Evil Ancient Beast.

The Ancient Beast of Dreams was clearly among the absolute peak of the same realm, actually capable of influencing even Chen Yan.

At this moment, Chen Yan closed his single eye; his body was still flying rapidly toward the Ancient Beast of Dreams, while his feet slid against the ground.

Chen Yan's feet rubbed rapidly against the floor, shooting out countless scorching sparks, scattering like golden meteors, with thunder and ice spilling out.

Chen Yan used his severed limb to brace against the end of the spear handle and pushed hard; the Ember Memory Spear bent into a full moon bow shape, and when charged to the limit, it snapped straight as Chen Yan thrust the spear out!

Boom!

Ten blood rivers manifested, with countless crimson petals dancing wildly between them.

Profound-Level 【Blood Domain Reversing World】!

Rumble!!!

The spear soul and 【Blood Domain Reversing World】 intertwined, and the ten blood rivers instantly strangled toward the Ancient Beast of Dreams like winding, roaring giant dragons.

Rumble!!!!

The violent booming sound reverberated, and terrifying air pressure tore through the void.

Countless tentacles were shredded by the blood rivers, and pitch-black mist sprayed out from the center of the explosion.

Countless tentacles surged and twitched within the exploding spear light, then were ground into dust.

The wind element of the Ancient Beast of Dreams began to explode, and the entire room was being twisted and torn apart.

Chen Yan's own body was sliced with streaks of blood.

First floor.

Chen Yunyou and Myriad Prison Nether Thunder heard this commotion and moved away from the stairwell.

At the same time, they looked at the first-floor ceiling with extreme vigilance.

What the hell is this?

Is this a Creation-Realm battle?

This is the Myriad Image Tower; under such intense malice, how can Ice Intent exert such combat power?

If Chen Yunyou hadn't been wrapped in Immortal Will, he would have been gone long ago.

He glanced at his body; the little remaining Immortal Will was now also in a difficult spot.

If Ice Intent doesn't come over soon, he is truly going to be finished.

Clatter, clatter...

The chains vibrated, and the person who had been imprisoned by the Chen Clan for a thousand years slowly raised their head; that nearly twisted gaze seemed to look right through the ceiling.

"This is... a God General..."

He murmured, his voice extremely hoarse.

Just at this moment, inside Chen Yunyou's body, the Myriad Prison Nether Thunder emerged once again and swam toward the second floor.

"Loyal dog!" Chen Yunyou sneered.

It was his first time seeing a God Seed with so little dignity.

A God Seed that can grow into a God-level spiritual object should be noble, understand?

However, Chen Yunyou also understood.

If Chen Yan dies, they are all finished.

Although the Myriad Prison Nether Thunder is only at the Sun-level Grade D, it is a God Seed itself; if one speaks purely of lethality in terms of the element path.

The Myriad Prison Nether Thunder truly does not fear the wind element of the Ancient Dream God Beast.

Crack!!!

Bolts of lightning roared!

The Myriad Prison Nether Thunder locked onto the position of the Ancient Dream God Beast and unleashed a set of Thunder Roar directly.

And then, there was no then.

The Myriad Prison Nether Thunder hurriedly scurried back to the first floor.

It flicked its lightning tongue, as if saying that this was all it could do.

Chen Yunyou was speechless.

Inside the second floor.

The sound of explosions ended completely.

The Ancient Dream God Beast's body had been blown to pieces by half, and the remaining body was also in a state of utter ruin.

Chen Yan took the opportunity to slash and shatter that purple array disk from just now.

That array disk posed too great a threat to Chen Yan.

Chen Yan did not give the Ancient Dream God Beast a single moment of respite, thrusting his spear out, striking directly.

【Swastika Expansion Dragon Kill】!

This spear strike was even faster, even more domineering, faintly possessing a momentum that surpassed the past.

After all, this is a blood-energy martial art created by Chen Yan himself, and the time taken to execute it can be reduced to a minimum by Chen Yan.

The instant the 【Swastika Expansion Dragon Kill】 surged out, the force within Chen Yan's body churned, and a golden laser instantly exploded outward.

【Phantom Slaughter Dragon-Culling Style】, First Style: 【Condensing Radiance Style】!

Chen Yan discovered that after he finished executing a blood-energy path martial art, his blood-energy would fall into a momentary stagnation, and the blood-energy within his hundred meridians would not have flowed back for a time.

But if one circulates force during this gap, executing a hard-tempered martial art is the best thing to do.

Boom, boom, boom!!!

【Swastika Expansion Dragon Kill】!

【Condensing Radiance Style】!

【Swastika Expansion Dragon Kill】!

【Condensing Radiance Style】!

【Swastika Expansion Dragon Kill】!

【Heaven-Splitting Style】!

【Swastika Expansion Dragon Kill】!

【Void-Breaking - Saint Explosion】!

The spear light and force collided and intertwined continuously, striking the body of the Ancient Dream God Beast incessantly.

Chen Yan wanted to take advantage of her illness to take her life, but these moves were all aimed at the head of the Ancient Dream God Beast.

These moves were not enough to annihilate the Ancient Dream God Beast, but they could make the Ancient Dream God Beast careless and unable to free itself.

Chen Yan only needed one chance.

He would seize the timing to wipe out the left hand of the Ancient Dream God Beast.

Yet, at this very instant.

The Ancient Dream God Beast, which had been beaten into a sorry state by Chen Yan, suddenly hissed.

"Caw!!!"

A piercing buzzing sound rang out instantly, shattering Chen Yan's eardrums.

A pitch-black piece of flesh shot over instantly; Chen Yan struck out with his spear, the spear soul suppressing and killing, directly severing this piece of flesh in the middle.

At the same time.

The floor beneath Chen Yan's feet suddenly shattered, revealing a black-red wall of flesh within.

Tentacle after tentacle of pitch-black color instantly shot out from the wall of flesh.

Chen Yan's pupils constricted.

This is a crisis, but also an opportunity!

The Ancient Dream God Beast endured so many of his attacks just to execute this strike.

But when the opponent executed this strike, it also gave Chen Yan a gap to attack and kill.

Chen Yan transformed into a lightning afterimage, and charred black cracks frozen in the void suddenly appeared.

Below, tentacles had already climbed onto Chen Yan's legs, but Chen Yan was even more decisive.

With one hand he threw out the last control array disk, his long spear swept across the void, and Chen Yan directly severed his own legs.

The silver-white array disk flew out.

Arcs of silver light instantly erupted from the array disk, and countless jade shards flew, scattering around the body of the Ancient Dream Beast.

The power of control pressed down once more, and the movements of the Ancient Dream Beast began to grow sluggish.

The Ancient Dream Beast, already beaten until only half remained, let out a sharp shriek as jet-black triangular prisms pierced out from her body.

This was her defense mechanism, intended to block Chen Yan at the very moment she was being controlled.

But she had truly underestimated Chen Yan's fighting will.

Chen Yan tilted his head to dodge the black spikes striking at his face, then struck the ground with the butt of his spear, the blood-colored spear soul tearing a trench dozens of meters long along the brick seams.

The next moment.

Ice thunder condensed and manifested, the Other Shore Flower bloomed!

Rumble!

As spikes pierced into Chen Yan's abdomen, ten blood-colored rivers erupted from the tip of the spear he swept out from bottom to top.

Roaring, they slammed into the left hand of the Ancient Dream Beast.

Boom!

Large swaths of malice exploded, countless streams of energy collided simultaneously, detonating!

The mangled body of the Ancient Dream Beast leaned against the wall, her left hand shielded behind her.

But this spear strike was enough to shatter her abdomen and blast her left hand.

"Ka!"

A sharp screech rang out.

The left hand of the Ancient Dream Beast exploded, and a pure black crystal of malice condensed, only to be shattered by the spear light and begin to annihilate.

Chen Yan's body was pierced through by dozens of spikes, his fresh blood blooming like red lotuses beneath him.

By the end, the physical body of the Ancient Dream Beast had been blasted into a jet-black, tattered, charred corpse, and that crystal of malice had also been blasted until only a small half remained.

Chen Yan lay on the ground, gasping for breath.

Opposite him, the Ancient Dream Beast sat leaning against the wall, emitting a strange laugh.

"I am going to die..."

She laughed, "Heh heh heh":

"Why do you think I necessarily want to live?"

Without the crystal of malice, she was naturally going to die.

Her body trembled, jet-black powder falling continuously from her flesh, and then she spoke with difficulty in a trembling voice:

"For the sake of Changyuan, even if I die, I will... kill you."

"Unimaginable, isn't it? An Ancient Beast, actually feeling this way toward a person..."

As the Ancient Dream Beast spoke, her body began to merge into the wall.

She used her remaining body as a sacrifice, solely to construct an absolute array to execute Chen Yan.

She could not control that person's power of will for too long.

Once she could no longer suppress Chen Yan's immortal will, if Chen Yan were to recover that near-perverted self-healing ability again.

Then what was there left for her to fight with?

This human was a monster.

That massive will made even her, an Ancient Beast, feel palpitations.

And now, this great array was to be formed using her final physical body.

She was going to trade her life for Chen Yan's.

It was also at this moment.

Crack!!!

A tyrannical figure condensed from jet-black wild thunder charged into the second floor; this figure was a full five meters tall, its face arrogant, clearly in the likeness of Chen Yunyou.

But this scene was very strange.

Because the outline of the figure was hastily sketched using Ten Thousand Prison Nether Thunder as ink.

In the center of the opponent's chest, one could even see a Chen Yunyou the size of a ping-pong ball.

This was a Dharma Form constructed by Chen Yunyou and Ten Thousand Prison Nether Thunder working together, with Chen Yunyou as the core and Ten Thousand Prison Nether Thunder as the energy.

At this moment, it was actually unleashing 【Avici Indestructible】 and 【Nine Revolutions Dragon-Shattering Stake】.

These were all of Chen Yunyou's ultimate moves.

The combat power it could exert was less than one-tenth of Chen Yunyou's complete form.

However, it was already enough.

"Bing Yi." The Dharma Form Chen Yunyou swept a cold gaze toward the broken-bodied Chen Yan:

"I save you once; from now on, we cooperate fairly."

He looked at Chen Yan indifferently; it was impossible for him to let Bing Yi die, for if Bing Yi died, he would be finished too.

The next moment, Chen Yunyou walked toward the Ancient Dream Beast, who was on the verge of death.

"Didn't expect it, did you? There's still me."

"Get lost!" the Ancient Dream Beast, who was about to merge with the wall, roared out.

A terrifying sound wave accompanied by malice that had reached an extreme intensity instantly struck at Chen Yunyou.

In an instant, the thunder Dharma Form on Chen Yunyou's body shattered, and the ping-pong-ball-sized Chen Yunyou's eyes widened instantly.

The next moment, his body shattered directly, turning into two halves and being blasted down the stairs.

Agonizing pain struck, Chen Yunyou's soul shook violently, and his Dao heart was on the verge of collapsing.

This move did not even have one-tenth of the power the Ancient Dream Beast had possessed before.

"Clown."

The Ancient Dream Beast cursed under its breath, and the next moment, it completely merged with the wall.

Crack, crack, crack!!!

The bricks of the ceiling and walls began to fall, revealing the writhing, flesh-colored firmament behind them.

Upon each pitch-black tentacle, those eyeballs instantly widened.

Hum!!!

Countless streams of resentment shot out from these eyeballs, turning into an endless tide that surged toward Chen Yan.

"Fall... and perish here with me."

The Ancient Dream Beast's voice was desolate.

She had once used the Blood-Drawing Array to wipe out millions of living beings in a city, and after that, she met Lu Xunyang.

That butcher, bloody and cruel, made her feel incomparably terrified even now.

But after slaughtering the living beings of that city, the Ancient Dream Beast had also collected millions of wronged souls.

This was her true ultimate move.

Millions of wronged souls, wronged souls belonging to the human race, were enough to wipe out any peak Seventh-Order being.

Now, millions of wronged souls were descending toward Chen Yan.

Miserable, sorrowful, desperate, angry, roaring—face after face fell toward Chen Yan.

The Ancient Dream Beast was certain that Chen Yan would undoubtedly die.

She watched the human man below quietly, only to see him slowly raise his head.

The Ancient Dream Beast was stunned.

Because she heard the man's voice, which carried a hint of surprise.

"Is that it?"

The Ancient Dream Beast was speechless; her last trace of vitality was dissipating.

Countless thoughts surfaced in her mind.

Why?

Had she encountered a ghost?

Is this a human?

Or could it be that he is the Ancient Beast?

Right until her vitality faded to its thinnest point, her voice echoed throughout the room.

"Pitiful, Changyuan... Changyuan is still thinking about how to... harm me."

Below, Chen Yan slashed out with his spear, the spear soul erupting, and all the malice within the room was being wiped away.

"You two are quite disgusting."

Chen Yan spoke indifferently, and the pitch-black tentacles began to fall, turning into ash.

Chen Yan lay on the floor, gasping for breath.

Like the dead silence of bathing in embers, Chen Yan raised his hand and looked at his own blood-red body.

"I want to go back to Great Xia."

The Ancient Dream Beast, dead!

PS: Brothers, Happy Lantern Festival. In the blink of an eye, the New Year has passed; time flies so fast.

Let's become happier together.
