Chapter 2051: Source of Power

"Chen Yu, where does your power come from? Why do I feel like it doesn't come from you yourself?" Charles roared angrily.

"Congratulations on guessing right. That's correct, my power indeed does not come from me myself," Chen Yu said with a faint smile. "My power is the power of heaven and earth; how can you contend with me?"

"I hate Dharma Cultivators, I hate them deeply." The Werewolf let out a low growl, transformed, spread his wings once more, and attacked Chen Yu.

But this time, his wings had become nearly transparent. He had nine lives, but these lives were not meant for him to squander without limit.

Chen Yu's figure flickered as he stepped forward and slashed off his head with a sword.

Charles's figure turned into a pile of ashes once again.

"His power is getting weaker?" Jinsang asked in surprise.

"That's right, it has been getting weaker," Chen Yu nodded slowly and said. "Every time he dies, he has to consume a massive amount of energy to regenerate."

"But the energy within his body that can support his regeneration is limited. This guy can't use the power of the Crystal Skull right now, so every time he dies, he becomes weaker."

"He's almost finished," Xueli said.

Indeed, Charles's strength was weakening bit by bit. Previously, Chen Yu had to exert effort to slash off half of his head, but now Chen Yu could cut his head off without any effort at all.

In the blink of an eye, eight of Charles's nine lives were gone. He stood on the spot, gasping for air violently.

"You only have one life left, and you are very weak now. Even Jinsang could easily finish you off," Chen Yu smiled faintly.

"Impossible, the God Lord didn't tell me it would be like this," Charles roared in a low voice.

"Oh, then what did he tell you?" Chen Yu asked.

"He told me that he extracted the genes of ancient fierce beasts and bestowed them upon me, that I would grow stronger the more I fought. But why now... is my power getting weaker and weaker?" Charles looked incredulous.

"You believe the God Lord's nonsense? You deserve to end up like this," Chen Yu sneered. "What kind of person is He Tiansheng? Yes, he possesses supreme genetic technology."

"But more often than not, his experiments were never even verified. Is a person who just talks a big game worth your trust?"

Charles said nothing; he slowly retreated.

"I think that while the God Lord gave you power and a handsome appearance, he also placed restrictions on you, right?" Chen Yu said with a smile.

"Restrictions?" Charles was confused for a moment.

"He didn't tell you that once you have wings, once you have tyrannical power and things that don't belong to you, you need to stay in this palace all day long?"

Chen Yu said leisurely, "You need the power of your Sacred Object, the Crystal Skull, and you also need the residual ancient aura of the Jufeng Great Array. If you leave the Holy Temple, you will die, right?"

"How do you know?" Charles was greatly shocked.

"You had every opportunity to run away just now, but you didn't run; you chose to stay and fight me," Chen Yu said with a smile. "Look at yourself now, where is the bravery and fearlessness of a Werewolf?"

"If you had the chance, you definitely would have run away, but you didn't. You stayed and exhausted your nine lives."

Charles's face turned livid, and he said nothing.

Yes, if he had the chance, only a bastard wouldn't run, but Chen Yu had sealed the Holy Temple, and now there was no way out.

Moreover, he couldn't leave; if he were to leave, his body would collapse. After all, having fused so many genes, it was impossible for there to be no side effects.

The reason he could maintain his tyrannical form now was entirely due to the power of the Crystal Skull in the Holy Temple and the Jufeng Great Array.

"Xueli, his head is yours to harvest," Chen Yu waved his hand.

"Understood." Xueli smiled faintly and slowly walked forward.

"Xueli, your Pope won't have a good ending," Charles said tremblingly.

"Perhaps, but unfortunately, you won't live to see it." A dagger in Xueli's hand flashed, a blue light streaked across, and one of Charles's heads rolled onto the ground.

Outside the door, Fuli, who was commanding all the Werewolves to attack the Holy Temple, suddenly fell to his knees with a thud. He trembled and let out a helpless roar: "They killed our Wolf Lord..."

With Charles dealt with, there were no more obstacles in the Holy Temple, and the three of them went directly to the Altar.

They saw a massive skull on the Altar. This skull was transparent, and even though its owner had been dead for countless years, one could still feel a trace of powerful pressure from it.

"This is the Crystal Skull of the Wolf Clan. Beneath the Altar is the Jufeng Great Array, and this head must be placed here to function, which is why the Werewolf Clan had to take such a huge risk to keep it here," Xueli looked at the Crystal Skull.

Then she took out the piece of the skull she had obtained at the auction and placed it on top. With a 'click', the two pieces became one, fitting perfectly.

"That's it," Chen Yu nodded and said. "The two were originally one. Next, we need to activate it."

"Should I be the one to activate it?" Xueli asked.

"Of course. If you have the incantation, you can activate it. I can also activate it by forcibly striking the Array Pivot with Primordial Qi, but yours seems to be less strenuous," Chen Yu said with a smile.

"I'll do it." Xueli took a deep breath. "The Werewolf scourge has existed for thousands of years; it is time to end it. This is a landmark victory, so it must be done by me."

She took a deep breath, clasped her hands in front of her chest, closed her eyes, and muttered a string of incantations.

They saw golden ripples spreading out in all directions from beneath the Altar, and countless mysterious Talismans floated on the ground, changing constantly.

"Is this the Jufeng Great Array that has been suppressed all this time? It looks quite tyrannical," Chen Yu watched the mysterious Talismans below intently, his expression complex.

In ancient times, this was a nearly invincible existence; how many gods had fallen within this Great Array.

"Yes, I have read legends about the Jufeng Great Array in an ancient relic," Xueli said. "If it is activated, the entire Snow Plains will turn into a sea of fire."

"But it seems its power is controllable now," Xueli maintained her posture. "We can turn only the area of the Werewolf Clan into a sea of fire; it won't affect the entire Snow Plains, so as not to harm the innocent."

"If that's the case, there will be remnant Werewolves in the Snow Plains who escape this catastrophe," Chen Yu said.

"You said it yourself, existence is justified. Even if some scattered Werewolves escape this, they are not worth worrying about," Xueli said.

"You're quite good at learning on the fly," Chen Yu smiled. "Do it your way; we will prepare the Teleportation Array."
