Chapter 562: Blood Slaughter Devil Spear

Meng Dede, who was diving downward, paused and looked up at the eternal night sky.

His cold red eyes flashed, and with a grasp of his right hand, the black saber vanished, replaced by a long spear. The spear was a crystalline blood-red, with the shaft covered in dark red scales. It was over four meters long, and the tip seemed to swirl with boiling blood. It also emitted a soul-shaking, eerie wail.

Raising the spear in his hand, he pointed it at the sky, and a beam of blood light shot up instantly. The mournful howls of vengeful spirits filled the entire arena in an instant.

The tribulation clouds forming in the sky dispersed just like that. The bolts of lightning vanished.

A hint of disdain flashed in Meng Dede's eyes, as if saying, "Before I decide to undergo a tribulation, not even the heavens can bring it upon me."

Tang San's voice sounded in Mei Gongzi's ear. "Be careful, that spear is an absolutely evil weapon. It was forged by using the spirits of at least ten thousand strong beings during its forging. It's far more powerful than an ordinary divine artifact. He's using the weapon's power to tell the heavens that this level of tribulation is nothing to him, and that a stronger tribulation should be sent in the future. This guy is too arrogant."

Mei Gongzi nodded lightly. Facing the diving Meng Dede, she did not retreat. Instead, she took a step forward, rising into the air.

Her delicate body spun in the air, and a pair of silver-white wings spread out behind her.

Suddenly, everything around her looked strange and illusory.

Beneath her, there seemed to be faint streams of golden-silver energy flowing, making everything around her appear like a dreamscape. The golden-silver energy lifted her delicate body higher, and the Celestial Plume in her hand radiated brilliant light. Strange lights and shadows surrounded her, and the giant peacock above her head suddenly spread its wings and dived down, merging into Mei Gongzi's body.

She looked even lighter and brighter now, like a feather of silver light floating in the pitch-black eternal night, illuminating everything around her.

The Celestial Plume in her hand now looked no longer like a sword; it was finally as gentle and flexible as a feather is supposed to be, and it was dancing gracefully along with Mei Gongzi’s mysterious steps, causing everything around her to slow down.

Meng Dede and Meng Deshi were diving down at full speed, yet their motion suddenly turned jerky and repetitive. It was as if they were stuck in a loop.

For the first time, a look of surprise appeared in Meng Dede's blood-red eyes. He felt that the entire space around him was changing. Even under the suppression of his advanced Dark Domain, the Eternal Night Domain, the space element was silently reviving and invading his domain like gentle rain piercing through mist. The girl dancing below him seemed to be in control of everything. Her eyes were no longer silver but a deep, dark platinum, casting a strange light that made the entire Ancestral Court Plaza seem like her stage.

A VIP box door opened. The Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor walked out with a solemn expression.

The Blood Slaughter Devil Spear in his hand emitted a piercing wail, and countless blood-colored shadows surged forth. The horn on his forehead now emitted blood-red light instead of purple. His body began to swell, growing a meter taller instantly. Muscles bulged, tearing through his clothes. Dark red veins pulsed irregularly on his skin, and an extremely terrifying aura surged like wildfire.

Meanwhile, Mei Gongzi sensed that something was off. The three eyes on the Celestial Plume in her hand lit up simultaneously. She gently swung it while spinning around, sending a golden-silver beam toward Meng Dede.

The beam was very peculiar, weaving through the blood-red shadows and somehow always finding a gap as it headed straight for Meng Dede.

A crisp snap echoed, and at the same time, a deep, bloody mark appeared on Meng Dede's chest, with dark red blood gushing out.

Under the Celestial Dance, the Celestial Plume was no longer a sword but a whip.

Meng Dede's blood-red eyes stared at Mei Gongzi; he was seemingly unfazed by the pain. He fiercely shook the Blood Slaughter Devil Spear, and countless illusory red shadows surged forth.

In the sky, the endless spread of blood red temporarily suppressed the golden-silver energy, rendering it unable to rise further. The entire sky seemed polluted. Then the Blood Slaughter Devil Spear thrust forward, unleashing a glaring blood light that descended instantly, reaching Mei Gongzi in a flash.

After all, Mei Gongzi had only just begun to grasp the Celestial Dance. Her cultivation was not at the god level, so she was unable to harness its true divine nature. She could only rely on the power of the golden-silver energy to amplify herself.

The Blood Slaughter Devil Spear, being a demonic weapon, could suppress the golden-silver energy to some extent. Moreover, Meng Dede had cultivated the mighty bloodline of the Black Horned Dragon King to the point where a breakthrough to godhood was imminent; this incredible bloodline power allowed him to regain the upper hand.

With a crisp sound the Celestial Plume struck the tip of the Blood Slaughter Devil Spear.

"Contamination!" A cold voice echoed.

Instantly, a layer of blood spread over the Celestial Plume, greatly diminishing its spiritual power. The golden-silver energy accompanying Mei Gongzi's movements also weakened.

The bloody energy surged, and the golden-silver energy receded.

With a thunderous boom, Mei Gongzi was violently shaken and sent flying backward, falling directly toward the ground.

The bloody light intensified instantly, devouring the remaining golden-silver energy in the air. Even more bloody light burst from the Blood Slaughter Devil Spear, and Meng Dede let out a piercing dragon roar.

His wings spread open, and he dived toward the falling Mei Gongzi like a bolt of blood-red lightning.
