Chapter 1510 (Raw 1490): Transcending Life and Death

Outside the Azure Dragon Palace, half a day had already passed since Xiao Chen got pushed through its doors.

Having fought against three people alone, Ying Zongtian was already a spent force. Wounds riddled his body, and he fell to the ground in an extremely weak state and struggled to climb back to his feet.

Of Ying Zongtian’s three opponents, the more severely injured East Mountain Ghost Monarch aside, the Heaven Punishing Corpse God and the Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva were in rather good condition.

It was just that their energy expenditure was considerable; hence, they needed some time to recover.

The East Mountain Ghost Monarch’s figure flashed and arrived beside Ying Zongtian. As he looked at Ying Zongtian straining to get up, he ruthlessly stomped on him.

“Ying Zongtian, weren’t you very arrogant earlier?” the East Mountain Ghost Monarch said hatefully through clenched teeth.

In the huge battle, the East Mountain Ghost Monarch was the most severely injured. Ying Zongtian even humiliated him a few times, making him very upset.

There were a few times where Ying Zongtian nearly managed to find the opportunity to take the East Mountain Ghost Monarch down along with himself.

Now that the other party was rendered helpless, stripped of his combat prowess, the East Mountain Ghost Monarch naturally had to vent his frustrations and take revenge.

“Whoosh! Whoosh!”

The Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva and the Heaven Punishing Corpse God quickly arrived with a flash. When Xing Tian saw what the East Mountain Ghost Monarch was doing, he frowned slightly and said, “Ghost Monarch, don’t go overboard. The Deity Sovereign still needs him for coercing Xiao Chen.”

The East Mountain Ghost Monarch said indifferently, “Don’t worry. He won’t die. I know my boundaries.”

After saying that, the East Mountain Ghost Monarch prepared to move his leg away from Ying Zongtian’s body. After venting his frustration through his stomp, he still felt upset. However, he knew that the Deity Sovereign viewed this with great importance; he could not truly kill Ying Zongtian.

“Cough! Cough!”

Ying Zongtian coughed a few times, spurting large mouthfuls of blood. Then, he smiled bitterly. “I, Ying Zongtian, wandered about my entire life, thinking highly of myself. Unexpectedly, I would fall at your feet.”

When the East Mountain Ghost Monarch heard that, he was stunned. Then, he swung a foot back and stomped heavily again. He said coldly, “How old do you think you are to be qualified to think highly of yourself? When I became a Prime, you were not even considered anything.”

“You think that Primes are very incredible? If I had wanted to, I could have advanced to Prime long ago.” Ying Zongtian revealed a mocking smile, showing great disdain for the East Mountain Ghost Monarch.

The Heaven Punishing Corpse God remained silent. He knew that he was not a match for Ying Zongtian. If not for ganging up on Ying Zongtian, they might not have been able to suppress the other party.

The Heaven Punishing Corpse God did not want to say much. He also knew that back then, Ying Zongtian spent one thousand years gaining accumulations as a Greater Heavenly Martial Emperor, delaying advancement to Sovereign Martial Emperor in order to break through and surpass Prime.

However, for some reason, Ying Zongtian later gave up on this thought, displaying only the strength of a Prime at Xiao Chen’s King conferral ceremony.

“The victor is king, and the losers are in the wrong. Right now, I am the one trampling on you. No matter what you say, it is useless!”

The East Mountain Ghost Monarch showed a cold expression as he heavily stomped on Ying Zongtian again.

However, when the East Mountain Ghost Monarch wanted to move his foot away, he discovered a pair of hands firmly gripping his leg like a vise. No matter what he did, he could not move his foot away.

“I already said, even if I die, I will drag you down with me.”

Suddenly, the Heart of an Emperor in Ying Zongtian’s body gave off a bright light. His entire being lit up like a candle, quickly burning up.

Self-detonation!

Ying Zongtian was going to self-detonate. A Prime would go so far as to use such a decisive method to end his own life.

This stupefied the three. The Heaven Punishing Corpse God immediately fled without even thinking.

“Let go! Let go!” The fear of death assailed the East Mountain Ghost Monarch, scaring him silly and making him scream.

However, no matter how the East Mountain Ghost Monarch cried out, Ying Zongtian firmly grasped his leg, refusing to let go.

Inside the Azure Dragon Palace, Xiao Chen felt that something was wrong. When he rushed out in a fluster, he happened to see this scene.

Xiao Chen was shocked rigid on the spot. He cried out hoarsely, “Big Brother! No!”

Based on the expressions of the old Dragon Horse and the others, Xiao Chen already guessed that the situations of Ying Zongtian and the Spirit Fox King were not very good.

However, no matter what, Xiao Chen did not expect that a Prime was actually pushed to the point of resorting to self-detonation.

Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign!

Xiao Chen coldly called out this person’s name in his heart. Then, he rushed towards Ying Zongtian, who was about to self-detonate.

However, it was already too late. Before Xiao Chen could get far, he heard a startling explosion.

An intense light soared into the sky. The two Primes at the center of the explosion died on the spot.

The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign, the Heaven Punishing Corpse God, and the Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva were all dumbfounded at this explosion.

Primes were the strongest existences in the Kunlun Realm. They were remote and stood at the peak of the pyramid, holding esteemed positions.

However, such an existence chose to self-detonate, taking the initiative to end his own life.

Xiao Chen, who was rushing over, did not have his guard up at all. The shock waves of the explosion knocked him into the air, and he crashed heavily into the ground, bouncing far away before he managed to stand back up.

There was still a chance. Ying Zongtian died only one second ago. If Xiao Chen could travel back two seconds and prevent the other party from self-detonating, he could change the past.

This was the same as when Xiao Chen weakened the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign’s Starry Heavens Divine Palm Strike.

However, Ying Zongtian was already dead. Traveling back to the time and space when the dead was still alive was like transcending the barrier between life and death.

The resistance that one would encounter would be even stronger than when Xiao Chen faced the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign.

State of cycle, reversing time and space!

Xiao Chen could not be bothered with so much. Determination flashed in his eyes. The Cycle Heart in his sea of consciousness shone, holding nothing back.

Xiao Chen took a step forward, and a strong resistance pushed back, nearly shattering him into pieces.

Charge!

The Veritable Essence Energy in Xiao Chen’s body surged out, forming a strong, sharp light before him. Together with the support of the Great Dao Energy, he finally managed to move forward, breaking through that barrier between life and death.

With only one second to make his move, Xiao Chen did not hesitate. The moment he arrived, he thrust his finger out, and the Heavenly Snow Divine Flame spewed out in a torrent, directly sealing Ying Zongtian, who was completely helpless and unable to resist.

Seeing that the light coming from Ying Zongtian dimming, Xiao Chen heaved a sigh of relief; he succeeded.

Xiao Chen’s time happened to be up. A great force pulled him back to the present.

Now, when Xiao Chen looked over, Ying Zongtian was already sealed in ice, and the East Mountain Ghost Monarch struggled free. The East Mountain Ghost Monarch gazed at Ying Zongtian in confusion. However, a vicious expression flashed in his eyes the next moment.

No matter the reason, Ying Zongtian was currently immobile, sealed by this mysterious ice. This was the best opportunity to finish him off.

Without even having to think, the East Mountain Ghost Monarch ruthlessly stomped at the ice-sealed Ying Zongtian.

If this stomp landed, Ying Zongtian would shatter into a pile of ice shards, dying without a complete corpse.

“Stop!”

After putting in a lot of effort to use the state of cycle to bring Ying Zongtian back, Xiao Chen naturally would not permit such a thing to happen.

He leaped into the air and threw a punch.

“Myriad Heaven Divine Fist, Distant Legend!”

The East Mountain Ghost Monarch felt a cold wind behind his back, making his hair stand on end as he sensed danger.

He quickly turned around and saw Xiao Chen. His face immediately lit up in joy. “Xiao Chen! I was just waiting for you. To think that you would deliver yourself into the net!”

“Boom!”

However, right after the East Mountain Ghost Monarch spoke, Xiao Chen’s punch knocked him into the air. He ended up flying with just one blow, appearing like a broken kite. He vomited a mouthful of blood and skidded far away.

“How can this be?!”

After coming to a halt, the East Mountain Ghost Monarch felt extremely confused. While he was severely injured, unable to bring out even half of his normal strength, he should not have had any difficulty stalling Xiao Chen.

However, the reality now was that Xiao Chen’s punch readily sent him flying. The might of this punch vaguely felt like it was even stronger than his own at his peak.

“Damn it! I do not believe this!”

The East Mountain Ghost Monarch could not accept this fact. He slapped the ground with his palm and soared into the air. Limitless ghostly Qi filled the air as he threw a palm strike at Xiao Chen. This attack even dyed the sky a dull black.

Xiao Chen turned around and circulated his Veritable Essence Energy to his chest, using his body to receive the East Mountain Ghost Monarch’s palm strike straight on.

“Buzz! Buzz!”

As if this palm strike landed on a metal mountain, its target remained stable, not budging at all.

The East Mountain Ghost Monarch’s face sank. Horror flashed in his eyes as he tried to retreat.

“Whoosh!”

However, in the time it took for a spark to fly, a hand shot out like a lightning dragon breaking through the clouds of the night sky, grabbed the East Mountain Ghost Monarch by the neck, and raised him.

“Xiao Chen, let go of him.”

Just at this moment, the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign and his other two allies charged over, bringing the bound Spirit Fox King.
