Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor

Chapter 196: Chapter 196: It’s Time to End!

"Alas! Now only Shi Feng remains, how could he possibly be a match for this undying tyrant!"

"Indeed! The move he just used must be Shi Feng’s strongest one, right? Such a powerful move but it still didn’t kill the tyrant Long Ao, alas!"

"Just what realm has the tyrant Long Ao reached?" someone voiced their inner doubts, but everyone shook their heads, none able to discern Long Ao’s current Martial Arts Realm.

Only Shi Feng saw that Long Ao’s Martial Arts Realm was at the rank of Three-star Martial Ancestor. However, after his demonization, that Demon Body exerted a much more formidable power than an ordinary Three-star Martial Ancestor.

Shi Feng looked toward Long Ao, who was engulfed in the tumultuous Demonic Qi not far away, and shouted again, "Fight!"

A single word "Fight" seemed to resonate with the ten thousand corpses suspended beneath him, causing a slight tremble, as intense Aura of Death surged once more, gathering toward Shi Feng above. Shi Feng focused the accumulating Power of Death into the Bloodthirsty Sword, followed by a dense Corrosive Gray Mist spraying from the Corrosive Evil Eye, which was also absorbed by the Bloodthirsty Sword!

"It’s time to end this!" Shi Feng said coldly, looking at Long Ao. Then the Bloodthirsty Sword in his hand suddenly burst into an even more unusually brilliant Blood-colored Flame compared to before. To slay Long Ao, Shi Feng spared no expense, even burning his Lifebound Essence Fire to stimulate power, causing his own realm, which was already at the level of Two-star Martial Emperor, to fall immediately to One-star.

"Nine Nether!" In the void, once again emerged a huge Sword Qi, as bizarrely blood-red as the Bloodthirsty Sword. Although it wasn’t as immense as the last one, everyone who looked at that bizarre Blood-colored Flame Sword Qi felt an even more heart-palpitating, breathtaking power than before.

"Shi Feng is exerting his strength again... This power... So strong!"

"He really is our country’s foremost Evil Demon! The stronger the enemy, the more ferocious he fights!"

"Can Long Ao withstand it this time?"

"This... the tyrant... hard to say..."

"Slash!" The bizarre Blood-colored Flame Sword Qi in the void suddenly slashed down towards Long Ao.

"I am the Heaven’s Chosen One! The one fated by heavenly decree! I have yet to unify the Eastern Domain Countries. How could I perish so easily in battle!" Long Ao roared. The tumultuous Demonic Qi surged with Long Ao’s shout, like a black Demon Sea, and then Long Ao charged upwards with the rolling Demonic Qi, launching a punch directly at the descending bizarre Blood-colored Flame Sword Qi!

"Break for me!" Long Ao bellowed, and his roar echoed in the sky for a long time, "Boom!" His fist collided with the Flame Sword Qi.

The spectators tensely observed the battlefield in the void once more, many feeling an odd sense that this strike had become the decisive blow that would determine victory or defeat, and with it, their destinies – whether Long Ao would die or live. They would know whether they would be slain by Long Ao, their entire families eradicated, all in the outcome of this single strike.

Under the tense gazes of onlookers, they saw a blood-red, bizarre flame Sword Qi slice into Long Ao’s body and then engulf his entire Demon Body. It continued slashing toward the surging, overwhelming Demonic Qi below. The black Demonic Qi where the Flame Sword Qi passed was instantly burned into nothingness, and thereafter, the Flame Sword Qi kept slashing toward the ground.

"Bang!" Although the rumble this time was far less intense than the previous one, after the Blood-colored Flame Sword Qi cut into the ground, it continued plunging deeper, carving a vast and deep crevice.

The commotion subsided, and the blood-red firelight disappeared within the vast and deep crevice.

"The Tyrant, he should be dead, right?" someone spoke up again; however, by now, their tone revealed great uncertainty.

"The crevice is too deep; we’re too far away to see clearly," someone said. "But he should be dead, right? He was directly devoured by that blood-colored flame Sword Qi just now! He might have already been burned to ashes at that moment."

"No! Look!" All of a sudden, someone exclaimed loudly, and following that cry, people saw a black, curved horn emerge from the crevice, then slowly rise up. Everyone’s hearts leaped to their throats as they saw a familiar head covered in black Demon Patterns appear before them, followed by the same Demon Pattern-dense naked body.

Long Ao had miraculously come back to life once again! Many who saw Long Ao felt a wave of powerlessness and weariness in their hearts. Was this Tyrant truly an Undying Body?

Long Ao flew from the deep entrance to the ground, and just as he landed, people immediately noticed that Long Ao’s Demon Body suddenly shook violently. "Ugh!" A mouthful of black blood spewed from Long Ao’s mouth, and then, as if out of strength, his right knee bent, and he knelt on the ground with one knee.

"Ugh!" Another mouthful of black blood was expelled from Long Ao’s mouth. He looked at the two puddles of blood he spat out, extended his Black Demon Hand, and spread his palm in front of him, his Demon Pattern-covered face filled with reluctance and sorrow as he murmured to himself, "I... have I lost?"

"No!" Long Ao roared, his face suddenly filled with resolve and determination. "I am the Heaven’s Chosen One, the rightful heir to Heavenly Destiny. How could I lose! I cannot lose!"

Following the roar, people saw Long Ao’s majestic presence re-emerge as the knee that was kneeling suddenly straightened, but then both knees "snap" to the ground, unable to stand again.

A black silhouette descended from the sky, Shi Feng, clad in Black Battle Armor, landed in front of Long Ao.

Long Ao barely lifted his head, looking at that calm and young face, his voice hoarse and weak as he said, "I... have been defeated!"

"Then accept your fate," Shi Feng replied, reaching out with his right hand toward Long Ao’s Demon Pattern-covered face. Seeing Shi Feng’s hand approaching, Long Ao calmly closed his eyes, already well aware that Shi Feng also practiced the Bloodthirsty Demon Art and clearly understood what Shi Feng was about to do next.

"Quick! Stop him! You’re actually using the Bloodthirsty Demon Art to absorb Long Ao’s blood. Once he has absorbed Long Ao’s blood, who else will be able to contend with him?" blurted someone who had initially flattered Shi Feng, persuading him to battle Long Ao and had supported Shi Feng all along, wanting Shi Feng to defeat Long Ao. Seeing that Shi Feng had indeed defeated Long Ao and appeared to be about to absorb his blood, the person hurriedly addressed the others.

Then another person anxiously joined, "Yes, someone stop him quickly! He is already an unrivaled evil genius of his generation. Once he absorbs Long Ao’s blood with the Bloodthirsty Demon Art, he will become an unstoppable entity. Later when he turns to absorb our blood with the Bloodthirsty Demon Art, we won’t even be able to resist. This young man already seems to have a sinister nature— who knows if he will become the next Long Ao!"

(I wonder if my friends will think the story is ending when they see this title! In fact, the story is still ongoing! The second release today might also be a bit late. There are some matters recently!)
