Chapter 557: Chapter 543: Humans Suffering Heavy Losses, Hot Blooded! _1

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The thunderous sounds shook the Vault of Heaven. Seas of ghost flames, frigid like tides, accompanied Xiao Chen’s three martial arts divine powers as they swept across the void. It’s as if the sky full of ghost flames dripped into a pot of boiling oil; the flames exploded several dozen or a hundred times over.

Outside Xiao Chen’s fifty-foot-tall golden war body, divine golden flames burned, keeping the rolling cold fire from his body and creating a frenzy of combat Qi in his large figure.

"Huh!" Seeing the figure within his own ghost flames, instead of turning to ashes, it ignited and grew larger. The surging blaze of blood Qi rushed to the sky, blocking his ghost flames from outside in a short time. And more than that, there was a bursting killing intention coming towards him.

"Truly a human genius. However, even if your spiritual will can detect my intentions, you can only end up being destroyed in the face of absolute power. You have no idea how big the gap is between you and me."

The ghost flame danced in the eyes of the Crimson Flame Ghost Venerable, a hint of disdain flashed at the corner of his mouth. He raised an arm, his long, pale fingers reaching out, lightly gripping the divine powers of the three war spears coming towards him.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

The three divine power spears, which were originally piercing the void with a surging killing intention, were immediately captured in the sky above. The entire war spear burst out with endless divine light, vibrating in the void, but couldn’t advance an inch.

"Break!"

A pale finger grabbed at the void. This movement seemed very slow in everyone’s eyes but it made all the warriors’ eyes lock onto it.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The three divine power war spears, filled with a surging killing intent, exploded. The sea of ghost flames within thousands of feet changed again. The sea of fire surged, fire dragons rolled and swept, radiating from this center to all sides of the valley.

Wherever the rolling wave of fire passed, whether it was a mountain stone or an ancient tree, it was all turned into ashes. More so, several nearby ancient mountains were directly flattened by dozens of feet.

Not good!

Xiao Chen was caught off guard by this sudden change. He originally thought that with the help of the venerable level of spiritual will, he could prevent one or two. However, it now seems that the power of the venerable realm is not that simple.

Even with the prediction of the spiritual will, Xiao Chen still felt difficult to defend at this moment. The omnipresent void turbulence alone was constantly making cuts in his battle body.

This ghost tribe venerable is definitely the strongest enemy Xiao Chen has ever faced. Not entering the Venerable Realm, he was no different from ants. Even if they are at the same Towering Realm level, the difference is as huge as sky and earth.

Xiao Chen’s killing move was easily broken by the ghost venerable. Xiao Chen’s eyes were as bloody as ever, his entire body was burning. At this moment of life and death, there was no need for any reservations. His gigantic fists continually pierced through, scattering the incoming surge of flames.

Nine golden fists, shining brightly, manifested in the void. However, even though he punched nine times in such a short time, the terrifying sea of fire almost swept the earth within ten miles radius, mixed with countless void turbulence.

He was at the center of this power vortex; a power terrifying enough to destroy the heavens and the earth. The next moment, golden light shimmered in the endless sea of fire, like a golden fierce sun, piercing through the earth for several miles.

Xiao Chen let out a muffled grunt, and he was directly blown away by the blast, hitting an ancient mountain five miles away. His gigantic golden battle body was embedded there, a full several dozed feet deep.

The whole ancient mountain, hit by such a huge force, finally collapsed. When the dust settled, Xiao Chen’s figure was nowhere to be found, buried in countless chaotic stones.

Is he dead?

All the human warriors in the valley were tense, their backs filled with a chilling air. Beneath the venerable, others are no more than ants. A venerable being personally targeting an ordinary Towering Realm martial artist, there was no suspense.

In a blink of an eye, they all felt a hint of despair. Even Xiao Chen, so powerful, had no strength to fight back under the venerable’s hand, let alone them. Next, it would be their turn.

"Cough! Cough! Cough!"

Suddenly, the collapsed ruins of the ancient mountain burst open. A cyan figure appeared in front of everyone again, undoubtedly Xiao Chen!

"He’s not dead!"

Looking at the broken cyan-armored figure, the whole valley suddenly went silent.

As Xiao Chen stepped out of the ancient mountain, coughing up blood, he had blocked a strike from the venerable being, but he had also suffered a heavy blow. This feeling of exhaustion, both physically and mentally, even his fifty-foot-tall golden war body was forcibly reduced back to its original size. The battle bones in his body were displaced, and even cracks emerged.

"What a pity, your human battle body isn’t quite there yet. Although your spiritual will has broken into the sixth stage of the Towering Realm, your martial arts realm is too poor. If your battle body could progress further, even if your martial arts realm isn’t enough, I would have to temporarily avoid the edges. But you no longer have the chance."

The Crimson Flame Ghost Venerate spoke indifferently, not surprised that Xiao Chen could withstand his life-destructive Ghost Flame and still live. In his eyes, ordinary mortals were mere ants, Xiao Chen was just a slightly stronger ant. If a single blow didn’t kill him, it was just because more energy needed to be consumed.

"The Bai Ze War Division only knows how to deceive people with tricks!"

Suddenly, the Crimson Flame Ghost Venerate let out a stern shout, manifesting a Ghost Flame in his hand. As bold as blood and dazzling as rainbows, it blew up wildly against the wind, morphing into a tumbling sea of fire, instantly piercing through the Void realm.

Boom!

The Void exploded as an ancient figure flew out, smashing the nothingness and let out a dull hum. It was evident he was caught off-guard by the attack from the Ghost Venerate.

"Vajra Venerable One!"

"Grand Elder!"

The person was indeed the newly risen power of the Bai Ze Marquis Division, the Vajra Venerable One. However, the Ghost Venerate he faced was a veteran, his power had already reached the pinnacle of the Towering Realm’s Sixth Heaven. The Vajra Venerable One just recently ascended to the Towering Realm’s Sixth Heaven realm and was far from being a match for this Ghost Venerate.

Regardless, the Vajra Venerable One moved forward, placing the multitude of human warriors behind him.

"It turns out to be you, hastily seeking death since being promoted to a Venerable One. Killing a Venerable One from Bai Ze Tribe will make this journey to the Great Wasteland worthwhile."

"Crimson Flame, you dare to set foot in our Human Realm. Don’t you fear that our human powerhouses will thoroughly keep you here."

The face of the Vajra Venerable One showed a grave look. This time, his Bai Ze War Saber made a severe mistake by letting the Ghost Tribe sneak past, completely unexpected. This action not only threatened the multitude of human warriors in the valley but endangered him as well.

The strength of the human warriors in the valley made up half of the Human War Tribe’s strength in the entire Border Wilderness Domain. If they fell today, the consequences were unthinkable.

After ten thousand years of revitalization, the Border Wilderness Domain only controlled approximately half of the territories. If the Human Tribe’s power declined once again, the power of the Border Wilderness Domain’s Human Tribe would shrink once more. It was unknown how many human comrades would turn into bloody bones, and the foreign tribes would become even more rampant and hard to restrain.

"Haha!" The Crimson Flame Ghost Venerate laughed unbotheredly. "If the whole Border Wilderness Domain’s humans are as foolish as you Bai Ze, my many tribes can easily manipulate you and conveniently descend to the Great Wasteland through the Void Path, what is there to fear."

"You!"

The Vajra Venerable One did not get angered because of the Crimson Flame Ghost Venerate’s mockery, halted the warriors’ anger behind him. At this time, the most crucial thing was to preserve the human race’s power.

"I will hold him off. Each of you must escape, and those who manage to escape must inform the strongest of our human race to join forces and exterminate the foreign tribes! Suddenly, a firm light flashed in the Vajra Venerable One’s eyes. For eons, the human tribe and the Hundred Clans had been fighting against each other, leaving no room for reconciliation. It had turned into a bloody battle of survival. If you don’t die, I will. Today, we were ambushed by the foreign tribes, and we could only slay a bloody path with our sabers in hand.

"Grand Elder!"

The third elder of the Bai Ze Marquis Division exclaimed in horror. He noticed the death wish budding in the Vajra Venerable One, the intent to hold back the Crimson Flame Ghost Venerate and win time for their escape.

The power of a dignitary in the pinnacle of the Towering Realm’s Sixth Heaven is immense. If he used all his strength, even if all the people in the valley were thrown into it, they would be insufficient to slaughter. His mercy towards Xiao Chen was nothing more than a random act of playing with the human prodigy.

"Enough, our Bai Ze War Division was supposed to suppress the Ghost Tribe’s Void Path. This time, a Ghost Venerate has descended to the human world, and it is undoubtedly our Bai Ze Marquis Division’s mistake. We owe the Great Wasteland Ancient Human Tribe an explanation. As the Grand Elder of the Bai Ze Marquis Division, how can I not sacrifice my powers today? Even if my blood and bones litter this wilderness, I will not hesitate!"

"Foolish humans, is this what you call righteousness? A mere ant can’t compete with a Giant Dragon head-on, but mere mortals? All of you will have to stay here today!"

The Crimson Flame Ghost Venerate sneered dismissively, no longer holding back. His pale hand extended from his crimson robe, and the chilling aura in the sky began to converge into his hand.

"Ghost flames like blood, myriad ghosts howl in the forest!"

Ghost flames filled the sky, with countless flickering ghost shadows. In the forest, countless fierce ghouls sprang out, making whimpering noises as if they were echoing from the far past.

The gloomy ghost noises seemed to penetrate through the endless Void, resonating throughout the valley, inducing people’s hallucinations; The boundless red ghost flames, carrying an endless chill, infiltrated every corner, seeping deep within their bones.

"Kill! The blood of our human ancestors must not flow in vain. The foreign tribes have caused havoc in the Great Wasteland. Today, even if we die, we cannot falter under the prestige of our forefathers!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

"Haha, this is our Human Realm, the land won by the bloodshed of our ancestors. Now can we let the foreign races run wild in our land because we are reluctant to shed this physical body? Kill! Kill! Kill! Even if our blood runs dry, we must make these foreign tribes pay a heavy price!"

Facing the sky full of ghost shadows, the human warriors in the whole valley were fully aware of the situation. In the face of desperation, the honor engraved deep within the human’s bloodline was fully ignited.
