Chapter 1215: Chapter 1215: Karma Chains - A Choice of Life and Death (1st Update)

Fiery flames surged, lighting up the sky with fire.

The two Half-step Immortal Kings were considered powerful lords wherever they went, but when faced with the Red Lotus Karma Fire, they were utterly powerless to fight back.

All one could see was a burst of radiance from their bodies, representing the shattering of their protective magical artifacts they carried with them.

But even that did not sustain them for long.

In just a few breaths, both screamed tragically as they were reduced to nothingness.

"Father!" Ye Liuyan cried out in shock, and then, as if recalling something, he retreated far back with a look of horror on his face, watching Xue An with extreme fear.

He feared that Xue An would come after him.

But at this moment, Xue An did not even glance at him, just stood there quietly, overlooking the sky filled with Karmic Fire.

In an instant, the scene became so quiet that only the roar of the rising flames could be heard.

After a while, Xiao Tian finally murmured in a daze, "Dead... are they dead?"

Xue An said indifferently, "Of course it’s not that simple!"

No sooner had he spoken than the flames surged into the sky once again, but this time, two figures were emerging within the flames.

"It’s Lord Lihen and the Ziwei Star Master! They’ve resurrected!" Xiao Tian first froze, then exclaimed in shock.

Xue An, as if he had anticipated this, smiled lightly, "No need to be so surprised. Being old demons who have survived for tens of thousands of years, how could they not have some life-saving measures?"

While speaking, the figures of Lord Lihen and the Ziwei Star Master had already fully emerged, and a layer of light screen appeared around them, temporarily protecting them from the Red Lotus Karma Fire.

But this was just a temporary measure. Under the erosion of the Karmic Fire, the protective light screen around them was rapidly weakening, only by the continuous support of their Divine Power were they barely not breached.

But having just had their bodies incinerated and barely managing to recongeal them back, both were simply unable to sustain such a massive consumption of Divine Power for long, hence they could only look at Xue An with faces filled with terror.

The atmosphere of the entire scene suddenly turned silent.

Xue An quietly watched the two, then smiled.

"Now, do you two have anything you wish to say?"

Before Lord Lihen could speak, the Ziwei Star Master couldn’t help saying, "Xue An, you are truly worthy of being the Red Lotus Immortal Venerable of the past, indeed formidable! But this Red Lotus Karma Fire of yours did not come from nowhere, maintaining it for so long must be putting great pressure on you, especially since you’ve been seriously injured!"

Saying so, the Ziwei Star Master’s gaze swept over Xue An’s battered body.

Hearing this, Xue An simply smiled, "You’re right, but there’s no need for you to worry about the severity of my injuries!"

"You..." The Ziwei Star Master originally intended to put some pressure on Xue An with such rhetoric, but Xue An didn’t care at all.

"Enough! No need for such nonsense, I want to ask you now, knowing that I am the Red Lotus Immortal Venerable, why would you still dare to act this way?" Xue An asked coldly.

The reason he asked this was because the Ziwei Star Master’s behavior was exceedingly abnormal.

Previously, in the Fate Secret Realm, he had shown great reverence to him, but upon arriving in the Divine Realm, he dared to team up with Lord Lihen to go against him.

Even if his own Cultivation Level had not yet recovered, did he not know the consequences of offending him?

Hearing Xue An’s question, the Ziwei Star Master gave a bitter smile, "Xue An, indeed, I admit that my actions were somewhat reckless. But do you know..."

Speaking of this, Ziwei Star Master looked up at Xue An, his voice grave as he said, "Following your disappearance, the vast enterprises you left behind from your time as Immortal Venerable have been eroded nearly to nothing. Moreover, various powerful factions have joined forces, endeavoring to erase all traces of your legacy and to enforce a complete ban on any discussion of your deeds! Consequently, the younger generation of cultivators now remain completely ignorant of your once formidable name!"

Hearing these words, Xue An’s eyebrows slightly raised. He had anticipated this outcome; once news of his demise spread, those who had been forcibly suppressed by him would naturally be unable to contain themselves and start causing trouble.

Yet, he hadn’t expected things to escalate this quickly, for these people to act so ruthlessly.

It seemed a cleansing bloodbath was needed in the Myriad Realms indeed! Only through slaughter could those fools relearn respect and fear.

As Xue An pondered, he then spoke in a cold voice, "So you’re in league with Lord Lihen?"

Ziwei Star Master, rendered speechless by the question, looked helplessly towards Lord Lihen.

Lord Lihen, who had been silent until now, suddenly began to laugh. His laughter was full of brazenness and wildness as he lazily said, "Xue An, you are indeed formidable. Both of us admit defeat!"

Not a trace of regret was found in his words.

Xue An’s eyebrows slightly raised, just about to speak.

Lord Lihen cackled oddly, "Xue An, I know what you want to say, but I have just one question for you now!"

"Oh? What is it?" Xue An asked, his expression turning grim.

Lord Lihen pointed at Yangjian in the distance, his voice full of smugness, "I ask you, do you wish for this Guankou Erlang to live or die?"

"What do you mean?" Xue An’s countenance changed as he asked in a deep voice.

"Don’t you understand what I mean? Very well, then let me demonstrate for you!" said Lord Lihen as he pointed with his hand, "Divide!"

Boom!

With his command, dazzling golden light erupted from the dozen or so Black Giant Towers, and the chains began to clatter as they were pulled taut.

In an instant.

The chains were stretched tight, and Yangjian, situated in the center, found his limbs forcefully pulled apart into a spread-eagled position.

Even so, the chains continued to clatter, straining against Yangjian’s body that emitted creaking noises.

The sounds were from skin tearing apart due to the immense force, with blood trailing down Yangjian’s slender frame.

Xue An’s eyes turned frosty as he sent out a sword strike with a flick of his hand.

But when this unstoppable sword strike touched the chains, the void trembled, and the chains remained intact - yet Yangjian shuddered, and a deep sword wound suddenly appeared on his body.

Seeing this scene, Xue An’s expression changed drastically, his tone as cold as ice, he articulated each word deliberately, "Karma Chains!"

Lord Lihen burst into hearty laughter, "Correct, they are Karma Chains, Xue An, your eyesight is indeed sharp!"

The so-called Karma Chains were an exceptionally vicious and treacherous method of imprisonment.

They were artifacts refined from their own laws by cultivators of Immortal King level or above. Once locked in place, unless the caster themselves intervened, there was absolutely no possibility of removal.

Moreover, the most malicious aspect of Karma Chains was that any means used in an attempt to break them would directly affect the bound person.

Even when facing the authority of an Immortal King’s Decree, Xue An’s expression had not changed much, but now, upon seeing the Karma Chains, his face became exceedingly grim.
