Chapter 5657: Kelp Man
Everyone found identifying the figure that had leaped out of the dark expanse challenging.
It appeared humanoid but was covered entirely in black kelp, or so it seemed. It held a weapon that was just as impossible to distinguish. It was covered in the same black aquatic grass as well. Perhaps it had been submerged underwater for too long and became covered with this grass.
Thus, it resembled a thick and long tree branch more than anything.
“Enough, Resolute!” The figure shouted.
Listeners found it surprising that this unknown being recognized Resolute Conqueror. Moreover, the voice was male and he appeared lucid, not a demonic or frenzied devil from the darkness.
Were they friends or foes?
“Clear the way so I can come in.” Resolute’s voice carried a supreme might capable of suppressing all living beings.
“You court death!” The kelp man shouted furiously and released a blinding imperial aura. The weapon in his hand let out a resonating cry, ready to dominate.
He swung his weapon and the six paths of reincarnation appeared, suffocating everyone. The strange weapon seemed capable of annihilating everything. Blocking didn’t seem to be an option even for emperors.
Resolute raised his arm and his armor became radiant with a heavenly light.
Once people calmed down, they traced the arrow back and saw a man standing amidst the stars. He seemed to be the center of the celestial affinity.
When he drew his bowstring, the stars formed a long arrow. The infusion of celestial power allowed his arrow to penetrate anything in the mortal world.
“Starshooter Dao Lord!” A big shot recognized him - a dao lord from Eight Desolaces versed in long-distance ambush. Many of his opponents were taken down unaware.
“That’s it!” The injured kelp man became livid.
“Bam!” Something like a dao lock shattered, freeing him from its binding.
“Rumble!” He stood upright while explosions detonated around him. Afterward, he gained a dark aura; his eyes were dyed with the same hue.
He resembled a devil king, becoming one with the dark expanse.
“Boom!” His attack no longer wielded the imperial light but rather, an ancient darkness.
Big shots were reduced to blood, only the stronger cultivators managed to survive from his dark aura. Such power frightened everyone.
“Damn!” Resolute’s expression soured.
“Whoosh!” The kelp man’s weapon changed and resembled a black lightning spear.
The spear flew with a frightening speed, leaving an indelible scar along the way. It pierced Starshooter’s chest in the blink of an eye, causing blood to gush up in the air.
“Ahh!” He screamed while being thrown backward from the impact, staining the area with his blood before falling downward.
