Chapter 580: The Fall

Chen Yan's brows lifted slightly:

"What are you talking about?"

"Huh?" Chi Xue was stunned:

"Is there a problem with my guess?"

Chen Yan laughed, his body trembling:

"Since you know I am Ice Intent, how can you not know that I observe others' emotions and know their actions?

The moment I saw Chen Yitong, I knew the other party wanted to kill me, so naturally, I had to flee.

As for coming to attack the Magnetic Storm Thunder Prison, I intended to attack the Magnetic Storm Thunder Prison all along; I cultivate the thunder element, so of course, I want to obtain the Lei Yu Ci Hun, this thunder divine seed, as soon as possible.

Who knew that the Thousand-Face Corridor would find me even faster than the Magnetic Storm Thunder Prison and apply for a domain battle with me."

Chen Yan laughed:

"What Chi Immortal, what Chi Yuexi, what on earth are you talking about?"

Chi Xue opened his mouth:

"Is that so? You scared me, you scared me. I was just saying, I was just saying how could you possibly..."

He let out a sigh of relief, but a look of disappointment appeared in his eyes.

Intense disappointment.

It was as if he had found prey that made him incredibly excited, only to find, upon closer inspection, that the prey was already missing half its flesh and blood.

Beneath the mask, Chen Yan's gaze became extremely cold.

He had indeed fallen for the trap.

Chi Xue must be eliminated in advance.

He said indifferently, his hands behind his back:

"As for you, being able to predict in advance that this General would attack the Magnetic Storm Thunder Prison is quite good.

Why not convert to me? Whatever you want, I can prepare for you. Be my military advisor."

As Chen Yan spoke, a strong sense of oppression descended, leaving Chi Immortal... no, Chi Xue, stunned in place.

"Heh..."

Chi Xue laughed:

"Hehehehe!"

He laughed non-stop:

"Chen Yan, why should I convert to you? Why should I be your teammate?

If I convert to you, I would lose an enemy that I would find difficult to encounter in my entire life!"

His smile gradually faded, and he looked at Chen Yan with extreme seriousness:

"What great cause of the five clans, what future of the human race—these childish remarks, in my view, have no need to exist at all.

My, Chi Xue's, existence is merely to kill those I wish to kill and destroy those I wish to destroy.

Let me tell you a secret: the ones I most wanted to kill before were the Chen Lord and the Chi Lord. They are so strong!

If I could kill them, I would be so excited!

But!"

He chuckled, his eyes darting rapidly as if imagining something magnificent, but his tone quickly shifted as he stared at Chen Yan:

"But now, killing you, Chen Yan, makes me even more excited than killing them!"

Chi Xue said, stuffing the last slice of orange into his mouth:

"Chi Prefecture's Chi Xue, invites the Heavenly God General to... die for the Great Xia!"

Crack!

A suddenly attacking thunder pillar descended from above Chen Yan's head, and billions of electric arcs locked Chen Yan firmly in place.

Plasma sprayed like a rainstorm, exploding into countless sparks upon the Heavenly God Armor, and the entire thunder pillar instantly pierced through both the floor and the ceiling.

This was an attack unleashed by the Lei Yu Ci Hun.

Dressed in white, Chi Xue's eyes turned scarlet in an instant, and with a ferocious smile, a slender hand reached toward Chen Yan.

The void seemed to collapse between his index and middle fingers, and in an instant, they pressed against the forehead of the Heavenly God Armor.

"Secret Technique—Original Seal Divine Shot!"

In a flash, a point of light condensed between his two fingers, appearing capable of instantly piercing the Heavenly God Armor and piercing Chen Yan's brain.

Yet, at this very moment.

Boom boom!

Two roars instantly resounded as the walls on the left and right were pierced by spear light.

Those were two shadows, which Chen Yan had arranged in advance when he entered the other room.

He knew that only by revealing a flaw could he truly draw out Chi Immortal.

Therefore, he had come in.

But his coming in did not mean he would obediently walk into a trap.

Twenty blood-colored rivers surged forth, pouncing toward Chi Xue.

Chi Xue's body paused; the best moment for the shot was interrupted. Without the slightest discouragement, he leaned backward, and a portal appeared behind him.

The moment his body lay into the portal, a teleportation array appeared on the ceiling; Chi Xue's body fell from the portal in the ceiling, his left hand grabbing his right arm, his right hand's two fingers already aimed at Chen Yan.

"Shoot to kill!"

Whoosh!

A blood-colored laser instantly erupted from between his fingers, shooting toward Chen Yan inside the thunder pillar.

Crack, crack, crack!!!

Inside the lightning pillar, the spear soul of the Ember Memory Spear in Chen Yan's hand erupted, and countless spear shadows vibrated, shattering the lightning pillar.

Chen Yan's body was able to stretch out, and he tilted his head to dodge that laser beam.

At the same time.

Two shadows simultaneously lunged to kill Chi Xue.

A smile played on the corners of Chi Xue's mouth as his body fell naturally, but a teleportation portal appeared beneath him, and he dove into it the instant the shadow spear struck him.

The next moment, Chen Yan swung the long spear in his hand and thrust the spear tip toward his back.

With a *snap*.

Chi Xue, who had abruptly appeared behind Chen Yan, grabbed the Ember Memory Spear and said with surprise:

"You can analyze another person's next move by their facial expressions?"

Boom!

The Ember Memory Spear's spear soul erupted, directly shaking off Chi Xue's hand; Chen Yan thrust again, but hit nothing but void.

The next instant.

Chi Xue's hands suddenly grabbed Chen Yan's legs, and half of the opponent's body appeared on the floor in front of Chen Yan.

Crack, crack, crack!!!

Chen Yan's body was forcefully dragged down, and the floor shattered.

Chi Xue directly avoided engaging with the shadows, not allowing himself to be surrounded and killed.

And in the room below.

Ten spider-type mechanical bodies stood silently; the moment they sensed Chen Yan's arrival, all their muzzles aimed at Chen Yan.

Boom, boom, boom, boom!!!

Interweaving pillars of electricity came strangling in; Chen Yan's body shifted in mid-air, holding his spear to blast back.

At the same time.

Chi Xue's figure suddenly split into seven afterimages.

Twisted purple-red beams shot from the fingertips of every phantom, sealing off Chen Yan's retreat like a spider web.

"Your Divine Armor must have other functions, why not use them? Use it, you won't last much longer."

Chi Xue laughed.

Bang, bang, bang!!!

The purple beams and lightning pillars formed a strangling force, slamming into Chen Yan's body, and the Heavenly God Armor sparked blindingly.

Chen Yan swept his spear horizontally, and one spider-type mechanical body was directly blasted to pieces by him.

At the same time.

The two blood-energy clones from above had arrived to kill; Chi Xue's eyes flashed, and the other clones he had conjured lunged forward to engage in combat with those two phantoms.

Chen Yan was forced into a corner by the lightning pillars; the Ember Memory Spear in his hand was swung in a circle, turning into a red-hot iron from the bombardment of the lightning, sparks flying.

The next instant.

Chen Yan reached out with one hand to block the incoming lightning pillar; countless fragments of electricity exploded, and the battle armor covering his left hand instantly turned red-hot.

And Chen Yan thrust toward his back.

With a *snap*.

Two arms darted out from the wall behind Chen Yan, one grabbing the shaft of the Ember Memory Spear.

And the other was already pressed against Chen Yan's back.

"Space—Slash!"

Hum!

Chen Yan's vision suddenly blurred; at this moment, it felt as if he had entered a void, but the next moment a sharp spear tip was already thrusting toward the center of his brow.

It was the Ember Memory Spear.

Chi Xue had directly changed Chen Yan's spatial position, intending to use the Ember Memory Spear in Chen Yan's hand—which could erupt with a spear soul—to shatter Chen Yan's physical body.

At this moment, Chen Yan reached out one hand, fingers pressed together, and aimed at Chi Xue's chest.

Chi Xue's expression changed slightly, but he did not stop the movement of his hands.

Until the next moment.

Bang!

The Ember Memory Spear stabbed into the helmet of the Heavenly God Armor, erupting with the sound of clashing metal.

But that surging spear soul instantly submerged back into the shaft of the Ember Memory Spear and did not erupt to harm Chen Yan.

Chi Xue said with surprise, not expecting that Chen Yan's long spear could be controlled by Chen Yan.

He had just observed Ke Qingxuan using this spear and thought that anyone could use this weapon.

As it turned out, that was not the case at all.

And it was at this moment.

Rivers of blood shot out from Chen Yan's fingertips, blasting toward Chi Xue.

【Blood Domain Reversing the World】!

Crack!!!

Bolts of lightning suddenly appeared, transforming into a lightning dragon that surged from behind Chi Xue and crashed toward Chen Yan.

Boom!

The spear shadows, blood rivers, and lightning dragon strangled into a boiling vortex of energy.

Chi Xue gave a faint laugh, leaned his body back to dodge the attack of the two blood-energy shadows, and a spatial ripple appeared behind him again, just as he was about to vanish.

It was precisely at this moment.

He suddenly raised his hand; in the hand that had just gripped the Ember-Memory Spear, a pitch-black speck of light suddenly appeared.

"Hmm?" Chi Xue's pupils constricted, and the next moment, he looked toward Chen Yan.

The next instant.

Chi Xue appeared behind Chen Yan and struck Chen Yan's back with a palm.

"Come, let's die together."

Chi Xue smiled, and where his palm made contact with Chen Yan's back, flames surged upward.

That was the 【Decay-Control—Holy Condensation Primordial】 remaining within the Ember-Memory Spear.

It was precisely at this moment.

Not far away, a Blood-Qi Shadow rushed over rapidly, intending to protect the main body.

But the moment the Blood-Qi Shadow arrived, a portal appeared before it, and it was directly teleported ten meters away.

Boom!

A golden-red flash of fire exploded within the giant thunder sphere.

The molten-gold-like flames destroyed everything, blasting a massive breach directly into the left side of the giant thunder sphere.

"Chen Yan!"

Outside, Ke Qingxuan and the others instantly stiffened, and the next moment, they flew toward the thunder sphere one by one.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!!!

Barriers of lightning suddenly condensed, blocking everyone.

The giant thunder sphere actually began to collapse, vanish, and turn transparent at this moment.

Space seemed to stand still amidst the extreme light and roaring sound.

The figures of Chen Yan and Chi Xue appeared within it, and surrounding them was a purple thunder sphere that looked as if it were burning.

Chi Xue stood with his hands behind his back, standing quietly, covered in blood.

The moment the 【Decay-Control—Holy Condensation Primordial】 exploded, he had teleported away, but he was still caught in the blast.

"Chen Yan, this is the price for opposing our Magnetic Storm Thunder Prison!" the thunder sphere growled, still connected to two lightning chains that were binding and killing the two Blood-Qi Shadows.

At this moment, Ke Qingxuan watched this scene in disbelief.

Yet she saw Chen Yan, clad in divine armor, standing in the void, but his head was hanging low, as if he had lost all signs of life.

"Continue!" Chi Xue laughed:

"You definitely have more strength than this, continue!"

His pupils were scarlet, filled with excitement.

Immediately following, he flew toward Chen Yan, his two fingers thrusting toward Chen Yan's forehead.

It was precisely at this moment.

The long spear in Chen Yan's hand also thrust out, and Chi Xue frowned.

Just this?

If he attacked like this...

His pupils turned icy cold.

Chen Yan would be dead.

With a hum.

A spatial gate appeared before Chi Xue.

The next instant.

Chi Xue slipped into the spatial gate and appeared behind Chen Yan; he saw the long spear in Chen Yan's hand suddenly swing around, thrusting toward his chest.

Chi Xue subconsciously wanted to dodge, but his frown deepened even further.

Because for this move of his, Chen Yan did not dodge at all.

Chi Xue was about to dodge and abandon his move, but the next moment, he became uncertain about everything.

Was Chen Yan about to use another function of the divine armor?

Chi Xue's breathing grew rapid, and a touch of madness flickered within his pupils.

Puchi!

The tip of the long spear pierced through Chi Xue's chest just like that, flesh and blood splattering.

And Chi Xue's two fingers also pressed against the armor behind Chen Yan's head.

"Desolate Insect—Explode!"

With a boom.

A violent roar resounded inside the armor, and waves of fire surged out from within the divine armor, outward.

All the excitement on Chi Xue's face stopped at this moment, and he looked at everything happening before him in disbelief.

He had chosen to take this spear strike from Chen Yan head-on and unleash his own move on Chen Yan just to see Chen Yan's final trump card.

He had thought this move wouldn't be able to kill Chen Yan.

But, why?

Right under Ke Qingxuan's near-despairing gaze.

The man clad in divine armor fell from the high sky just like that.

Chen Yan, dead!
