Chapter 851: Destiny Pillar

The Destiny Pillar uses the bloodline Qi of the Chen Family as a guide, so Chen Anyi is currently the best material to replenish the Array Base; this pillar has actually already merged with the Black Snake, and now it intends to swallow Chen Anyi to nourish itself and stabilize the Array Base.

"You are my biological father; if I cannot even save you, then what else can I do?" Chen Yu shouted.

As he spoke, Chen Yu reversed Lichen, let out a violent shout, and slashed fiercely at the stone pillar.

With a boom, the giant pillar, which was thick enough for six people to join hands around, shook violently, and an extremely deep sword mark appeared on the stone pillar.

Although the Black Snake embedded in the pillar manifested a Spirit Body, it still had no way to leave the stone pillar; however, now that the stone pillar was damaged, it also let out a heaven-shaking roar of pain.

Immediately following this, the Black Snake's two eyes widened, and cold light shot out from its icy eyes. As its gaze locked on, countless pale hands were seen reaching out from the Blood Pool beneath the stone pillar, grabbing toward Chen Yu.

Chen Yu reversed Lichen in his hand and slashed down; dozens of pale hands were severed by force. Crack, crack—countless hands fell into the Blood Pool, and at the same time, bursts of shrill screams were heard; this scene was like a Purgatory on earth.

"Chen Yu, be careful." Just at this moment, Liu Lianxin suddenly gave a cry of alarm; she flipped her right hand, and a Green Lotus emerged, covering Chen Yu.

It turned out that the Heaven and Earth Pillar had already begun to rotate slowly, and one of Chen Yu's hands was stuck tightly to the Heaven and Earth Pillar. He tried to pull his hand away, wanting to withdraw it from the Heaven and Earth Pillar, but he did not succeed.

Chen Yu suddenly felt an extremely strong suction force emanating from the Heaven and Earth Pillar; the Qi, blood, essence, and spirit in his body were all being slowly sucked away by the Heaven and Earth Pillar, and his Original Power even had the potential to slightly dissipate.

Fortunately, Liu Lianxin covered him with a Green Lotus, so the ghost hands surging from the Blood Pool did not manage to drag Chen Yu down.

"Chen Yu, come out first and then we will think of a way. This is not a solution; not only will you fail to save your father, but you will also be implicated," Liu Lianxin shouted.

"Heh heh, regretting it now? I'm afraid it's too late." Following a burst of laughter, a black shadow flashed, and Xie Yu appeared.

"It's you? The Heaven and Earth Pillar is a trap you dug for me, right?" Chen Yu glanced at Xie Yu and said coldly.

"That's right, the Heaven and Earth Pillar is a trap I dug for you. This pillar is an Array Base built using your Chen Family bloodline as a guide, so it cannot be filled by anything other than Chen Family bloodline," Xie Yu said with a chuckle. "Once your father is used as nourishment, the soul of the Black Snake will be perfected. By then, once you are possessed by the Black Snake, the Old Man of Heavenly Mandate will be able to control you."

"This grandfather of mine really has calculated every single move," Chen Yu sneered and said. "He went to such great lengths to cultivate me, a Purple Star Emperor Fate; why didn't he wait until I had completely grown up before controlling me?"

"Once you have truly grown up, there would be no way to control you," Xie Yu shook his head and said. "Chen Yu, the Old Man of Heavenly Mandate has calculated everything, which is what created your Emperor Fate; you should stop struggling."

As soon as Xie Yu finished speaking, he suddenly felt a murderous aura rising from all sides. He dodged quickly, and a Green Lotus exploded beside him. With a boom, a cluster of ice shards scattered in all directions; the air where he had just been standing had frozen into ice.

A touch of crimson blood was about to drip from the center of Liu Lianxin's brow, and an Immortal Lotus floated behind her, her fighting spirit intense; it was clear she had already pushed her combat power to the limit.

"To think it is someone with a Green Lotus Jade Bone Body?" Xie Yu stared at Liu Lianxin and muttered, "Good, worthy of being a Purple Star Emperor Fate; even the people around him are this invincible. I have underestimated you."

"Benefactor, the sea of sin is boundless; stop now." Liu Lianxin wore a faint smile, appearing harmless to humans and animals, but beneath that smiling expression, there was a trace of stern murderous intent.

"Heh heh, no one can stop me." Xie Yu sneered; his figure flashed, turning into a flickering black smoke, and he attacked Liu Lianxin fiercely.

Liu Lianxin circled her right hand, and the Immortal Lotus dispersed, condensing into countless green petals around her. The petals rotated slightly, turning into sharp blades.

For a time, green light flickered in the basement, and a sharp murderous aura filled the entire room.

Crack—Chen Yu's body sank another fraction, and now two-thirds of Chen Anyi's body had been sucked into the Heaven and Earth Pillar. If he went in any further, the Heaven and Earth Pillar would likely swallow him completely, and by then, no matter what, there would be no way to save him.

Meanwhile, Liu Lianxin and Xie Yu were fighting at a white-hot intensity. Xie Yu was at the late stage of the Primordial Qi Realm, so Liu Lianxin had to be fully focused to hold on for a while longer; if she were careless for even a moment, she might fail.

Chen Yu put away Lichen with his only remaining hand; his palm had already been cut open, and a cold sneer appeared on his face. Immediately after, he stretched out his blood-stained fingers and covered his own face, drawing them from the top left to the bottom right.

Five bloodstains appeared on his face, and the murderous intent on his face surged instantly. The five bloodstains slowly faded, and when he raised his head again, his face was filled with murderous aura.

"Taiyin Entering Life Great Method—Chen Yu, have you gone mad?"

The two people in the middle of the fierce battle separated simultaneously, both looking at Chen Yu with expressions of disbelief.

"Are you not afraid of shortening your lifespan and having your fate completely altered?" Xie Yu's voice was low; he was practically roaring.

"Heh heh, my life is already being controlled and toyed with by others, and you are talking to me about fate?" Chen Yu laughed. He lifted his right hand slightly, and with a crack, he forcibly pulled his hand out of the Destiny Pillar.

Chen Yu grabbed with his right hand, and Lichen appeared once more. He let out a violent shout, and his Primordial Qi surged out. Lichen let out a dragon's roar, and a streak of Sword Qi whistled out, circling the giant stone pillar once.

Chen Yu grabbed Chen Anyi's hand, raised his True Qi, and forcibly dragged out Chen Anyi, who had been three-thirds swallowed by the stone pillar.

As Chen Anyi was dragged out, the Black Snake let out a roar, then revealed a ferocious look. Its three heads looked at Chen Yu in unison, and then it lunged over fiercely, opening its blood-red maw.

Chen Yu slashed out with his sword again, and one of the small heads on the left side of the Black Snake was severed by Lichen.

The Black Snake's roar immediately turned into a wail; it looked at Chen Yu in terror, then retreated rapidly, coiling uncertainly on the pillar.

Chen Anyi's legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground; his essence and spirit had been sucked away too much, and now he didn't even have the strength to stand.

"Dad, rest for a while; leave the rest to me," Chen Yu said coldly. He lifted Lichen in his hand and turned to look at Xie Yu.

The expression on Xie Yu's face, which had always been calm as an ancient well, finally revealed a trace of horror: "Chen Yu, I never imagined you would actually use the Taiyin Entering Life Great Method. Do you know what consequences this will lead to?"

"Does it matter? This isn't the first time I've used it." Chen Yu grinned, raised Lichen in his hand, and slashed fiercely toward Xie Yu.
