Chapter 810: Chapter 810: The Defeat of Kong Lietian
Zhong Shan's ten shadow clones shot off in ten different directions within the Primeval Banner. This was an eerie world, filled with endless evil spirits of unknown origin. It wasn't easy for the shadow clones to explore.
Fortunately, one of the shadow clones quickly discovered something unusual.
Rushing towards a specific direction at an extraordinary speed, the shadow clone encountered several powerful evil spirits along the way, but none could touch Zhong Shan.
Eventually, it found a strange place.
A forest of swords, or rather, a massive sword graveyard. T/his chapter is updated by nov(ê(l)biin.co/m
The ground was filled with swords of various kinds, all exuding a heavy, murky aura. Numerous evil spirits flew out from this vast sword graveyard, scattering in all directions.
Cautiously, Zhong Shan moved deeper.
Soon, he reached the center, where a giant throne stood on a high platform. On this throne sat an Asura-like evil spirit, similar to the black Asura King Zhong Shan had fought earlier.
Below, countless evil spirit guards stared greedily at the throne but seemed to fear the evil spirit king seated there.
There was a large pool below, filled with pitch-black water. Numerous weak black ghosts crawled out of the pool, as if most of the evil spirits in this world were born from it.
As soon as a new batch of evil spirits emerged, they were inhaled by the evil spirit king on the throne, with the majority consumed by him and a small portion going to the evil spirit guards.
Dominating this black pool, the evil spirit king continually devoured the spirits.
Zhong Shan's arrival immediately drew the attention of the evil spirits, who all glared at him with red eyes.
Without the need for the evil spirit king to speak, the evil spirit guards swarmed towards Zhong Shan.
"Boom~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!"
Zhong Shan clashed with an evil spirit guard, shattering it with a palm strike, but he was surprised to find that these guards' strength was at the level of an emperor.
He dodged the other evil spirit guards with a flicker of his body.
"Hmph!" the evil spirit king snorted coldly.
Wielding the Fangtian Halberd, a terrifying force swept towards Zhong Shan. This evil spirit king was similar to the Asura King encountered outside but seemed to have his power amplified in this world, pressing down on Zhong Shan with overwhelming force.
The space here was more stable; such a strike didn't even tear it apart.
Zhong Shan's heart tightened. He didn't dare be careless. His pupils contracted as he activated the Eyes of Reincarnation.
With great effort, Zhong Shan opened the Reincarnation Passage.
"Boom!"
The evil spirit king was sucked in, struggling and ultimately ground to dust.
The remaining evil spirit guards, seeing the death of their king, scattered in all directions.
Zhong Shan frowned, contemplating the scene. Opening the Reincarnation Passage in this world was incredibly difficult. The energy required here was a hundred times more than outside, and the laws of this world were bizarre. The reincarnation principles he had previously comprehended were useless here. Just now, he had to forcefully gather reincarnation power to open the passage. Why was this?
There were no reincarnation tracks, no reincarnation laws, no reincarnation rules.
"It's useless. Borrowing the power of the entire Great Zheng, your Three-Colored Divine Light can't harm me!" Zhong Shan's palm continued its trajectory.
"Yin~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!"
With the call of a peacock, a five-colored divine light shot out from the crack on Kong Lietian's forehead, not the usual three colors, but five, heading straight for Zhong Shan's forehead.
In a last-moment decision, Zhong Shan dodged.
At that instant, a green light burst from the crack on Kong Lietian's forehead.
A gigantic peacock's shadow appeared.
Zhong Shan's expression changed as Kong Lietian's body exploded.
"Boom~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!"
The powerful self-detonation blasted Zhong Shan back a thousand feet.
Kong Lietian had self-detonated, but what was the peacock shadow that emerged from his forehead? His soul?
The peacock soul spread its wings and shot away rapidly. The Primeval Banner in the sky shrank quickly, wrapping around the soul of Kong Lietian.
Kong Lietian was trying to escape with the Primeval Banner?
Zhong Shan's expression changed, and he reached out toward the sky.
"Clang~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!"
Zhong Shan was suddenly blocked by a golden light between him and the Primeval Banner.
Kong Xuan had arrived in front of Zhong Shan.
The Primeval Banner shrank into a small flag, wrapping around Kong Lietian's soul.
At that moment, Daoist Shen Crow appeared in front of Kong Lietian, seemingly intent on snatching the Primeval Banner.
Kong Lietian's soul paled. The black banner emitted a large amount of black Qi and suddenly vanished before everyone's eyes, disappearing into thin air.
The black banner had escaped with Kong Lietian's soul. But where did it go?
Twenty breaths later, in the Taishang Dynasty's capital.
In Kong Lietian's training room, black Qi suddenly filled the air, and the space trembled. Then, with a flash, the black banner appeared.
The black banner had brought Kong Lietian back to the capital. The Sage's treasure was indeed mysterious, able to cross space and return!
In the training room, there was another person—Sekong. Sekong sat cross-legged, as if waiting for something.
"Sekong, quickly, give me the 'Kong Clan Escape Talisman'. Kong Xuan, that treacherous man, wants to seize my Primeval Banner. And that scoundrel Daoist Shen Crow, quickly, give me the talisman so I can return to the Great Thousand World and to the Kong family. I must report to my father. I will bring powerful warriors to bloodily massacre this small world!" Kong Lietian's soul roared.
"The Kong Clan Escape Talisman? Master, wasn't that talisman given to me for my use? So I could report to the Kong family if needed? Also, how did you end up like this?" Sekong suddenly smiled wickedly.
Kong Lietian raised his head abruptly, looking at Sekong in astonishment. Something felt off about Sekong's tone—something was wrong.
