Chapter 419

Whoosh!

The brilliant, sharp blade fell, but what it split was only Ta Ke's afterimage.

The brilliant, sharp blade fell, but what it split was only Ta Ke's afterimage.

What great speed!

The 178-level upper-rank master swordsman narrowed his eyes slightly, a fierce light flashing.

The 178-level upper-rank master swordsman narrowed his eyes slightly, a fierce light flashing.

His eyes narrowed slightly, a fierce light flashing.

Sharp blade aura flowed around him, and with a light tap of his foot, like a sharp blade tearing through layers of air currents, it swept toward Ta Ke.

Sharp blade aura flowed around him, and with a light tap of his foot, like a sharp blade tearing through layers of air currents, it swept toward Ta Ke.

Whooo...

As Ta Ke swiftly retreated.

The heavy, mighty steam light feather blade quickly condensed behind Ta Ke.

Each feather-like huge light feather blade was thirty meters long.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Two streaks of light feather blade, left and right, like two great mountains, pressed toward the incoming swordsman.

"Get out of my way!"

The upper-rank master swordsman let out a low roar.

He brandished the legendary war blade, and two streaks of light-system forbidden spell blade aura burst forth magnificently, instantly reaching a hundred meters in size.

Clang! Clang!

Two dull collisions sounded simultaneously.

But Ta Ke's heavy light feather blade, about thirty meters long, directly severed that upper-rank master's forbidden spell blade aura.

"How... how is this possible? He's merely a mid-rank projection."

The light-system upper-rank swordsman was startled.

The opponent's light feather blade was absurdly strong.

His forbidden spell blade aura was not weak either, also possessing a 126-level forbidden spell grade.

He had originally intended to clash head-on with the opponent.

But the result was that it shattered upon contact.

Sensing something amiss, the upper-rank swordsman master tried to dodge, but it was already too late.

Sizzle!

Sizzle!

The steam light feather blades, left and right, pierced the upper-rank master swordsman's armor barrier at extreme speed, deeply infusing into his master form.

The light-flame power quickly burst forth, scorching the upper-rank master swordsman's master form with a sizzling sound.

Facing Ta Ke's divine ability flame scorching.

That upper-rank master swordsman gave a cold snort.

The azure blue ring staff on his wrist quickly burst forth with a splashing water sound.

Ta Ke's divine ability flame was visibly suppressed.

But at this point, the 178-level Chao Shen Da Shi, having suffered a great loss, dared not lightly pursue Ta Ke any further.

Meanwhile, Ta Ke also did not hastily unleash means to forcibly slay that upper-rank master swordsman.

Thus they continued to wear each other down in combat.

The pressing matter now is to clarify the current situation.

Ta Ke had already sensed several Green Star Clan upper-rank Chao Shen Da Shi secretly observing from afar.

Not to mention these few powerful Green Star Clan members.

Just the battle situation here is not optimistic.

The Three-Eyed God and the Seven Gods' followers are clearly the side being beaten.

In the midst of combat, a familiar source-energy transmission suddenly sounded in Ta Ke's ear.

"Andre, Ta Ke little brother, I never expected you to come support us, but this situation looks difficult."

"Andre? Ta Ke?"

Ta Ke raised his eyebrows, looked over, and saw that it was the blood-flame-covered Blood Shura person 'Aisa Ke'.

When I first met Aisa Ke in the Blood Sea Ancient Ruins shipwreck, he gave Ta Ke a Storm Wing Seed.

When Ta Ke went to the Alumofu God Kingdom, he also kindly reminded Ta Ke.

After arriving at the God Kingdom, Ta Ke still wanted to meet this Blood Shura clan's Aisa Ke, but unfortunately never found him.

But I never expected to encounter him here in this way today.

The other party recognized his identity, so Ta Ke was not surprised either.

After Ta Ke became famous in the God Kingdom, Aisa Ke could know that the person he had met earlier was Ta Ke.

Although I was just passing by, I've now been drawn into the battle, so this is not the time to say that.

"Aisa Ke elder brother, what's the situation here?"

Ta Ke spoke via transmission while fighting.

"Hmm... when you came to support, did those people give you any instructions?"

Ta Ke's eye twitched; I'm not here to support, I really am just passing by.

Fortunately, Aisa Ke didn't dwell on that.

"First help us escape this place, then we can talk in detail later."

Aisa Ke's spacetime blade blocked the opponent's battle-axe strike on one side, while transmitting on the other.

Ta Ke's gaze swiftly swept across the entire field.

There were fifteen or sixteen Chao Shen Da Shi, all possessing the aura of the seven gods and the three-eyed god.

The opposing side had over twenty people, not counting those Green Star Clan members secretly watching the battle.

Translation: The opposing side had over twenty people, not counting those Green Star Clan members secretly watching the battle.

"Fine, just gather over to my side later."

"Fine, just gather over to my side later."

"I'll cover your escape."

Translation: "I'll cover your escape."

Ta Ke transmitted concisely.

Translation: Ta Ke sent a mental message crisply and cleanly.

"Understood!"

Translation: "Understood!"

Aisa Ke nodded.

Translation: Aisake nodded.

In the midst of battling the upper-rank master swordsman.

Translation: In the midst of entangled combat with an Upper Rank Grandmaster swordsman.

Ta Ke also quickly summarized the concrete combat effects of his breakthrough.

Translation: Ta Ke also quickly summed up the concrete combat effects of his breakthrough this time.

He advanced to mid-rank Chao Shen Da Shi.

Translation: Promoted to Middle Rank Chao Shen Da Shi.

The activated state enhancement of the Chaos Rune Arcana, combined with the mid-rank Chao Shen Da Shi's chaos steam source energy transformation, boosted Ta Ke's basic power by over six times, approaching sevenfold.

Translation: The activated enhancement of the Chaos Rune Arcane Art, and the transformation of the Middle Rank Chao Shen Da Shi's Chaos Steam Source Energy, caused Ta Ke's base power to increase by over six times, approaching sevenfold.

In terms of the light feather blade forbidden spell, besides the power increasing about six to seven times,

Translation: As for the Light Feather Blade Forbidden Spell, aside from the power increasing about six to seven times,

speed and agility also saw a significant increase.

Translation: speed and agility also saw a similarly substantial increase.

Previously, Ta Ke would have needed to employ some means to counter upper-rank Chao Shen Da Shi of level 170+.

Translation: Previously, Ta Ke would have needed to employ some means to counter a Upper Rank Chao Shen Da Shi of level 170 or higher.

At this point, the normal operation of his two light feather blades alone could easily suppress the opponent.

Translation: At this moment, the normal operation of just two Light Feather Blades would be enough to easily suppress the opponent.

Once Ta Ke gets serious, killing those level 170+ upper-rank Chao Shen Da Shi will obviously not be too difficult.

Translation: Once Ta Ke gets serious, killing those Upper Rank Chao Shen Da Shi of level 170 or above would obviously not be too difficult.

When he felt it was about time.

Translation: When it felt about time.

Then Ta Ke suddenly made his move.

Translation: Ta Ke then suddenly made his move.

Boom boom boom!

Translation: Boom—

One after another, huge meteor fireballs fell from the sky.

Translation: One after another, huge meteor fireballs fell from the sky.

Boom! Boom! Boom……

Translation: Boom! Boom! Boom…

The space was shaken in waves by the explosion.

Translation: The space was shaken in waves by the explosions.

Immediately after, within the exploding meteorites, one after another huge forbidden spell star-fall rings rolled across the air, pressing toward Ta Ke.

Translation: Immediately after, within the exploding meteors, one round after another of massive Forbidden Spell Meteorfall Rings rolled across the air, converging toward Ta Ke.

At the same time, Ta Ke hurled a single forbidden spell star-burst toward the distant Green Star Clan members.

Translation: At the same time, Ta Ke hurled a single Forbidden Spell Star Explosion toward the distant Green Star Clan members.

"Rumble……"

Translation: "Boom—"

As the terrifying forbidden spell star-burst erupted.

Translation: As the terrifying Forbidden Spell Star Explosion blossomed,

The fighting Chao Shen Da Shi all suddenly changed expression.

Translation: The Grandmasters locked in combat all suddenly changed expression.

"Whose forbidden spell is this?"

Translation: "Which Forbidden Spell Wizard's forbidden spell is this?"

"What a powerful forbidden spell star-burst!"

Translation: "What a powerful Forbidden Spell Star Explosion."

"Damn bastards, who let you unleash a wide-range forbidden spell? Don't let them get away!"

Translation: "You damned bastards, who let you unleash a wide‑area forbidden spell? Don't let them get away."

"Watch out, there's fire burn damage."

Translation: "Watch out, there's fire‑burn injury."

In the extreme uproar of the star-burst, howls rose and fell, crisscrossing.

Translation: In the deafening roar of the extreme star explosion, howls rose and fell, crisscrossing.

In the intense star-burst roar.

Translation: In the intense roar of the star explosion.

Ta Ke quickly wove several forbidden spell star-rings into a zone.

Translation: Ta Ke quickly wove several Forbidden Spell Star Rings into a zone.

A colossal spacetime wormhole gate tore open space.

Translation: A huge Spacetime Wormhole Gate tore open space abruptly.

The terrifying power of the spacetime wormhole world perfectly intertwined with the surrounding forbidden spell star-rings.

Translation: The terrifying power of the Spacetime Wormhole World perfectly intertwined with the surrounding Forbidden Spell Star Rings.

The spacetime wormhole gate was strengthened to the utmost.

Translation: The Spacetime Wormhole Gate was reinforced to the utmost.

Attempting to destroy it with forbidden spells would likely fail to breach Ta Ke's wormhole gate.

Translation: Trying to destroy it with forbidden spells would likely fail to break Ta Ke's wormhole gate.

The Chao Shen Da Shi who had received the news earlier immediately rushed here in haste.

Translation: The Chao Shen Da Shi who had received the news earlier immediately scrambled to flee here at top speed.

They then flocked through the wormhole gate to flee the area.

Translation: Thereafter they hurriedly passed through the wormhole gate to escape this place.

Meanwhile, Ta Ke also manipulated those huge star-fall rings to block the pursuing Chao Shen Da Shi.

Translation: At the same time, Ta Ke also manipulated those huge Meteorfall Rings to block the pursuing Chao Shen Da Shi.

Under Ta Ke's control, seven or eight Chao Shen Da Shi were stopped.

Translation: Under Ta Ke's control, seven or eight Chao Shen Da Shi were stopped.

"Haha…… Prince Ta Ke, you did a splendid job."

Translation: "Haha…… Prince Ta Ke, nicely done."

"When I have time, I'll treat you!"

Translation: "When I have time, I'll treat you!"

A Chao Shen Da Shi from the Alumofu demi-god world, who had previously interacted with Ta Ke, sped through Ta Ke's defense zone, laughing loudly at him.

Translation: A Chao Shen Da Shi from the Alumofu Demigod World, who had previously interacted with Ta Ke, sped through Ta Ke's defensive zone, laughing loudly at Ta Ke as he spoke.

Those pursuing Chao Shen Da Shi, although some could forcibly break through Ta Ke's defense circle and pass through the wormhole gate to chase after him,

Translation: Those pursuing Chao Shen Da Shi, although some of them could forcibly break through Ta Ke's defensive circle and chase through the wormhole gate,

but they obviously wouldn't do such a thing.

Translation: but they obviously would not do such a thing.

Following the enemy's spacetime wormhole to chase them is the foolishest move.

Translation: Chasing the enemy through their spacetime wormhole is the stupidest course of action.

After all, you never know if a demi-god awaits you on the other side.

Translation: After all, you never know whether a demigod might be waiting for you on the other side.

Moreover, if you go over and your teammates don't, you're basically giving them a free gift.

Translation: Moreover, if you go over and your teammates don't, you're basically handing them a free gift.

Soon, a quasi-legendary wizard in ordinary white robes swiftly descended beside Ta Ke.

Translation: Soon, a Quasi‑Legendary Wizard in ordinary white robes swiftly landed beside Ta Ke.

This white-robed wizard is the follower of the Three-Eyed God whom Ta Ke has visited several places.

Translation: And this white‑robed wizard is precisely the follower of the Three‑Eyed God whom Ta Ke has visited several places.

The fallen 199-level quasi-legendary white-robed wizard nodded to Ta Ke in greeting.

Translation: The 199‑level Quasi‑Legendary White‑Robe Wizard who had landed nodded to Ta Ke in greeting.

"Prince Ta Ke!"

Translation: "Prince Ta Ke!"

His voice was rich and calm, giving a feeling like a spring breeze.

Translation: His voice was rich and calm, giving a feeling like basking in a spring breeze.

"Recently, the Three-Eyed God sent me a message saying that if I met you, I should protect your safety as much as possible, and the Three-Eyed God greatly looks forward to your return, hoping you can leave behind the Steam·Wizard sequence in the Three-Eyed God's divine kingdom."

Translation: "A few days ago, the Three‑Eyed God sent me a message, saying that if I met you, I should protect your safety as much as possible, and the Three‑Eyed God greatly looks forward to your return, hoping you can leave a Steam Wizard lineage in the Three‑Eyed God's Divine Kingdom."

Ta Ke heard this and smiled.

Translation: Ta Ke smiled upon hearing that.

"Saint Lord Lei Er, I will definitely go visit the Three-Eyed God after I return."

Translation: "Prince Shengleier, I will definitely go visit the Three‑Eyed God after I return."

"After all, when I was weak, the great Three-Eyed God gave me tremendous help."

Translation: "After all, when I was still weak, the great Three‑Eyed God gave me tremendous help."

"For this, I keep it in my heart!"

Translation: "For this, I keep it in my heart!"

Three-Eyed Divine Son "Sheng Lei Er"

In the land of thunder and lightning, a super genius born under the protection of the Three-Eyed God.

Being able to become the Holy Son of the Three-Eyed God, his talent is naturally unquestionable.

And the one chasing after him was also the quasi-legendary strongman that Ta Ke had known for a long time, "Ao Gu Si Ding".

Looking at Ao Gu Si Ding's wounds, Ta Ke knew that this quasi-legendary swordsman had obviously suffered a lot in the hands of Sheng Lei Er.

At the same rank, the mage sequence is obviously able to suppress the swordsman sequence considerably.

The pursuing Ao Gu Si Ding did not act rashly.

Instead, he looked at Ta Ke with a cold expression.

"Ta Ke, where did Bo Er De go?"

"Who knows where he went."

Ta Ke replied in a bland tone.

"After getting the treasure, he might have just ditched you and flown off alone."

As a projection, he shows off being fearless.

"Hmph!"

Ao Gu Si Ding let out a cold snort, his face growing ever uglier.

Judging from the token, Bo Er De is clearly still alive.

But no matter how he tried to contact him, whether through scrolls, altars, or magical messengers—

But…… there was simply no response from Bo Er De.

He's alive!

But it seems as if he has disappeared.

Even if he were trapped, he would still be able to send a response.

But at this moment, not responding at all is just too strange.

He vaguely suspected that Ta Ke was secretly meddling, but he had no evidence.

However, even if he had evidence, there was nothing he could do about Ta Ke.

This damned projection is so annoying!

As the last severely injured Chao Shen Da Shi left through the spacetime wormhole, the white-robed mage Sheng Lei Er also followed and left.

In Ao Gu Si Ding's hateful gaze, Ta Ke also entered the spacetime wormhole, after which the wormhole vanished.

Watching Ta Ke and the others leave.

The few Green Star Clan members blown apart by Ta Ke's forbidden spell quickly gathered together.

"Ta Ke·La Mo Er fellow is indeed still here."

"Is that person Ta Ke·La Mo Er?"

"Yes, that's him."

A Green Star Clan member tapped the super-technology bracelet on his wrist.

On it appeared Ta Ke's projection, a radiant astral form, not a vague shadow state.

"From the aura of that projection, Ta Ke should have advanced to mid-rank Chao Shen Da Shi; previously, his projection casting a forbidden spell was not that formidable."

"This time, the forbidden spell with astonishing destructive power is about to threaten us."

"At the same time, looking at the characteristics that have emerged, it is clearly of the shadow state."

"It seems he has absorbed a chaos treasure that transforms form."

"For many mages, absorbing treasures that increase destructive properties or chaos damage properties works better."

"After all, damage-type treasures are the most immediately effective."

"But this Ta Ke chose this chaos heavy treasure that doesn't really increase destructive power for his breakthrough; it seems this fellow is very confident in his forbidden spell techniques."

"Speaking of which, this fellow's forbidden spell techniques are indeed astonishing."

At that moment, a vague outline of a legendary projection appeared beside several Green Star Clan members.

Several high-ranking master-level Green Star Clan members immediately performed salutations.

The projection of an older Green Star Clan elder condensed, and after looking in the direction where Ta Ke and the others disappeared, his hoarse, aged voice sounded.

"No matter how strong that Ta Ke is, no matter how high his level after breakthrough."

"As long as we confirm that Ta Ke is still here, then there's no problem."

As soon as the legendary strongman's projection spoke, the other Green Star Clan masters immediately laughed, each nodding in agreement.

"Indeed, as long as we confirm that Ta Ke is still here, that's enough."

"As long as he stays here, he's as good as dead."

"The destructive power of the chaos black mist is something even spirits cannot withstand."

"For now, this Eretria·Ancient God Dead Land is an absolute dead zone."

They know this very well.

This time, the Three-Eyed God and the Seven Gods, plus many Chao Shen Da Shi from the demigod ancient land, legendary strongmen, and others.

As long as they enter the Eretria·Ancient God Dead Land.

This time, they will all die!

…………

Deep in the Death Howl Canyon!

More than ten escaped and ascended Chao Shen Da Shi gathered together, heatedly discussing.

There was a feeling of exhilaration after surviving the catastrophe.

"Hahaha…… Finally managed to escape."

I thought we were going to die there; the few Green Star Clan members' intimidation in the dark was too strong, giving a feeling of suffocation.

I didn't expect Prince Ta Ke to come support us.

Haha… indeed, the Green Star Clan's methods are very formidable, but Prince Ta Ke's methods are in no way inferior to theirs.

That Forbidden Star Burst, tsk tsk… utterly terrifying!

Come to think of it, why hadn't we met Prince Ta Ke at the camp before?

That goes without saying; Prince Ta Ke's identity cannot be casually revealed. Now those alien races, especially the vine-civilized Green Star Clan with green skin, want to kill Prince Ta Ke, so it's natural for him to conceal his identity.

That's also true!

I had long heard Prince Ta Ke's name; seeing him today truly lives up to the legendary tales.

While Prince Ta Ke's strength is astonishing, the sequence he created also resounds throughout our human world.

Nowadays, many of our human powerhouses basically know that Prince Ta Ke's Steam Wizard Sequence is the strongest sequence.

I never expected the Creator to be right before our eyes; the legendary myth is imprinted in our sight!

I looked at that Steam Wizard Sequence; it's not just outrageous, it's outrageous to the extreme.

A bunch of youngsters in my clan are risking their lives to compete for inheritance slots, fighting bloody and bruised just to obtain the inheritance quota the clan holds; they even cooked up some inheritance trial, and only those who pass can obtain it.

Haha… my clan is the same; those clansmen daily perform secret-language prayers, all praying that I secure more inheritance slots for the clan—I'm sick of it, it's like I'm a wishing machine.

It's the same; my descendants' small clan used to cultivate freely, I never demanded much of them, but now they all want to obtain Prince Ta Ke's Steam Wizard Sequence inheritance qualification.

Many Chao Shen Da Shi gathered around Ta Ke's Shadow Star Phase Projection, chatting animatedly.

Indeed, Prince Ta Ke's Wizard Inheritance is immensely strong, beyond doubt.

With Prince Ta Ke's Wizard Sequence, other sequences of a higher rank can be easily crushed.

Crossing a sequence rank like this is a normal phenomenon.

When I arrived, someone had already discovered how to develop Astrological Power.

Hehe... this star-phase body, that is... a divine-level talent, these are the original words of the divine spirits.

The person said that.

Everyone couldn't help but draw a sharp breath.

However, after thinking carefully about how hot the inheritance of the Steam·Mage sequence of the Lamor Origin Stone Pillar is nowadays, everyone also felt relieved.

Speaking of clan descendants, I suddenly remembered something, Your Highness Taku—my clan sister is now under a hundred years old, already promoted to Chao Shen Da Shi, in the prime of youth and beauty, at the age to discuss marriage. If Your Highness Taku does not disdain, I could introduce her.

Although it's already very hard for us Chao Shen Da Shi to have offspring, with some effort there is still hope.

If one achieves the Legendary realm, then wanting to have offspring becomes very, very difficult!

Chao Shen Da Shi who want to propagate their lineage need at least a hundred wives and concubines to start; one is not enough! someone teased from the side.

Seeing these Chao Shen Da Shi talk more and more outrageously.

Taku also couldn't help but feel embarrassed and stood still.

Although Taku also knew his Steam·Mage sequence would be hot.

But he really didn't expect it to become hot even in the Divine Kingdom; the whole world is transmitting his name.

"No wonder the legendary fire seeds have become increasingly turbulent and fierce lately."

"I thought it was caused by the widespread transmission of the sequence."

"It turns out the precipitation scale of my legendary trait has expanded to the entire human world."

While Taku was pondering,

Someone asked Taku.

"Right, Your Highness Taku, where is this place? Your Highness Taku, why don't you just open a teleportation gate to reach the mountain cliff boundary area?"

Seeing someone say that indeed, Taku took a deep breath, steadied his mind, and said:

"I also don't know where this is; I just happened to project past that place, saw you fighting, and was forced to join your rescue efforts."

"So I casually opened a teleportation gate."

"To be honest, I still don't understand why you aren't going to look for treasure, but instead gather together to fight the enemy."

As Taku's words fell, the air suddenly went silent.

Everyone looked at Taku with a hint of astonishment.

They really hadn't expected Taku's explanation.

"Your Highness Taku, you should have been in closed-door cultivation for over half a year, right!" At that moment, a senior old wizard from the demi-god nation of Aluromov spoke.

"Mm! It's been close to a year." Taku nodded.

"Since that's the case, it's not surprising."

The old wizard composed his expression and immediately began to elaborate.

"During the period when Your Highness Taku was in closed-door cultivation, great changes occurred in the dead land of the ancient god Etheria."

"Specifically, three demigods from the Green Star Clan descended into the dead land of the ancient god Etheria."

"After several days of fierce battle in the core area."

"Two upper-echelon Legendary powerhouses who had just ignited their divine fire were slain by the Green Star Clan demigod powerhouses in the core region!"

"Thus, the Green Star Clan officially took over guarding the dead land of the ancient god Etheria."

"Although many of us Chao Shen Da Shi here also sought rescue from our respective divine spirits and demigods,"

"but you also know the situation outside."

"The divine spirits can't spare a hand."

"Even if, by some chance, they could spare a hand to descend, the demigods might not come; and if the Green Star Clan had set a trap here, any demigod that came would likely perish."

"The information we have is that we must find our own way to leave."

"Currently, we have gathered about fifty or sixty people here."

Two legendary powerhouses, several quasi-legendary powerhouses, fifty Chao Shen Da Shi among the people.

After everyone discussed it, however, there was also no way to leave.

That is to say, currently this Etinya·Ancient God Dead Land, to us, the land lives up to its name—namely, a dead land!
