Chapter 3651: Youre Dead Now
In an instant, the hall was engulfed in flames and there was basically no corner that wasnt ablaze.
Nevertheless, a breeze was swirling around Wind Lord as there was no sign of fire in a radius of ten metres around him. He looked like an unmoving rock amidst the violent storms and waves as he snorted, It seems that you wont regret until you see your coffin!
After he declared so, he shot towards Yang Kai. The flames separated and revealed a path that he could pa.s.s through. It seemed that wherever he went, the flames around the area would be extinguished.
In just a moment, he reached a spot that was ten metres away from Yang Kai. Presently, his figure was smaller than that of Yang Kai by several hundred times, but he appeared to be more imposing than the other party as though he was the taller one. Then, he lifted his right hand and balled up his fist, after which a fan appeared in his grip. The fan was only half an arms length in size, but a shocking light could be seen emitting from it. Raising the fan, he gently waved it at Yang Kai.
A gale swept across the hall as a razor-sharp wind blade shot out of the fan and expanded to several tens of metres before slas.h.i.+ng at Yang Kai.
Yang Kai wanted to dodge, but his perception of time had been warped, so he was unable to move as he pleased. When he came to his senses, the wind blade was already right in front of him, so he hurriedly crossed his arms to protect his face.
With a loud boom, Yang Kai shuddered as his mountain-like figure slid backwards. Huge wounds appeared on his arms, which were now drenched in blood.
Making use of that force, Yang Kai turned around and swept his tail at Wind Lord. His Dragon Tail, which was covered in Dragon Scales, looked like a long whip which seemed able to make s.p.a.ce shake and shatter where it pa.s.sed.
Wind Lord scoffed and lifted his leg. In just a few steps, he was able to dodge the tail with ease.
Following a failed strike, Yang Kai charged forward and chanted in the Dragon language again. Wind Lord raised his fan and waved it at Yang Kai again. This time, it wasnt just one but over ten wind blades that came at Yang Kai from all directions, which made sure there was no way he could dodge or defend.
With no other way to ward off or avoid the wind blades, Yang Kai decided to dash forward with a grin. He seemed resolute and ready to lose his life.
Dont get presumptuous! Wind Lord sneered, grasping the hourgla.s.s in his left hand in an attempt to use the same trick again. He wanted to influence Yang Kais perception by using the power of the Flowing Time Divine Sand.
Right then, a clang was heard, and light expanded. Following that, Yang Kai vanished into thin air.
Wind Lords pupils contracted, and the next moment, he realised that the light in front of him had been blocked by a gigantic figure. Looking up, he saw that Yang Kai was gazing down at him like he was an ant. After Yang Kai inhaled deeply, he opened his mouth and spat out a Dragon Breath.
The Dragon Breath seemed extremely sharp, as it could cut through s.p.a.ce as it slashed at Wind Lords head.
Wind Lord grunted in surprise and took a step sidewards to dodge the attack, but he felt a force coming at him from the side as though it had been waiting for him.
Turning around, he realised that Yang Kai was sweeping his right fist at him. The horrifying force caused his eyelids to twitch. Although he was more powerful than Yang Kai, he knew that he would end up in a terrible state if he was. .h.i.t by this fist.
So, he immediately turned into a breeze and disappeared. Yang Kai was frustrated that he hit air again.
In one corner of the hall, Wind Lord reappeared and stared at the bell in Yang Kais hand before he snorted, Mountains and Rivers Bell!
At this moment, not only was Yang Kai holding the Mountains and Rivers Bell, but he was also flicking it around, which caused the ringing of the bell to reverberate around the hall. With the bell as the centre, glowing waves could be seen spreading across the hall, seemingly cleansing Yang Kais body.
Wind Lord had stayed in this place for a hundred years and obtained Flowing Time Great Emperors Legacy Artifact, the Infinite Hourgla.s.s. With that hourgla.s.s, he was able to drain Yang Kais life away and affect his perception of time.
However, he wasnt the only one who possessed a Great Emperors Legacy Artifact. Yang Kai also had a Legacy Artifact, which was the Mountains and Rivers Bell. That was the reason he wasnt afraid of Wind Lord. Only a Great Emperors Legacy Artifact could be used against another Legacy Artifact.
Therefore, after Yang Kai summoned the Mountains and Rivers Bell and made it ring out, he was able to restore his own perception of time. However, he still hadnt managed to cut off his connection with the Infinite Hourgla.s.s. As the Flowing Time Divine Sand continued trickling down, his remaining years of life would still rapidly leave him.
Yang Kai was unable to fully utilise the power of the Mountains and Rivers Bell, but it was the same case for Wind Lord and the Infinite Hourgla.s.s. In this regard, both of them were even.
The bell continued ringing out as the invisible pressure permeated the hall, causing Wind Lord to feel extremely heavy, as though a mountain was pressing down on his shoulders.
The ringing of the bell was able to suppress the world itself, such a statement best described the Mountains and Rivers Bell.
After activating the power of the Mountains and Rivers Bell, Yang Kai managed to break free from the Infinite Hourgla.s.ss disturbance and restored his perception of time.
Noticing this, Wind Lord stared at the bell for a moment before he sighed and said, Grudges should be resolved rather than formed. Youve killed many of the people from Demon Heavenly Dao, and Ive made you suffer a setback. Why dont we forget about what has happened today? We can part ways and never see one another again. What do you think?
With the hourgla.s.s rendered ineffective, he wasnt confident in dealing with an expert in the Dao of s.p.a.ce, unless Yang Kai insisted on battling against him until either party was killed instead of fleeing. If Yang Kai wanted to flee, he wouldnt have any way to stop him.
He didnt want to fight with Yang Kai. He was already satisfied that he had obtained the Infinite Hourgla.s.s from the Flowing Time Temple. As for those people from Demon Heavenly Dao who were killed, there had never been a lack of people who were killed in this world. They should feel honoured that they were able to sacrifice their lives for his Masters goal.
Sure, Yang Kai replied in a hushed voice and put on a grin, Put the hourgla.s.s down and cripple your cultivation. After that, Ill let you go.
Wind Lord narrowed his eyes and grinned wickedly, Boy, this King is sincerely trying to make peace with you, but it doesnt mean that Im afraid of you. If you remain obstinate, this King will have no choice but to kill you.
Do it if you can, Yang Kai lifted his hand and crooked his finger.
Is there really no room for discussion? Wind Lord stared grimly at him.
Yang Kai guffawed, Ive told you that were not even from the same side. Cut the nonsense, will you?
Wind Lord took a deep breath and put on a helpless expression, Since you insist on forcing me, you must pay the price.
After he finished speaking, he raised the hourgla.s.s and pushed his Emperor Qi wildly, infusing as much power into it as possible.
Initially, the speed at which the Flowing Time Divine Sand trickled down inside the hourgla.s.s was neither fast nor slow. After a long battle, only half of the Divine Sand had reached the bottom of the hourgla.s.s. In other words, only four hundred years of Yang Kais life had been sucked away from him.
However, what Wind Lord had done was to accelerate the speed at which the sand fell. The other half of the sand reached the bottom in just a short moment.
Yang Kai couldnt help but grunt as his blood gushed towards his throat and almost spurted out. Although he wasnt hit by any external force, he had suffered a serious injury by losing four hundred years of his life in just a moment. He could also feel his vitality plummeting.
Wind Lord wasnt done yet though. When the sand in the hourgla.s.s completely reached the bottom half, he flipped it upside down again before infusing more Emperor Qi into it. Grinning wickedly, he said, How are you going to fight with me when I have this hourgla.s.s? This King was magnanimous enough to let you off, but do you seriously think this King has no way to deal with you?
Having his life drained away from him was a terrible feeling. Furthermore, not only was this loss of life visible to the naked eye, but it could also be physically felt. Of course, Yang Kai wouldnt stay idle and wait for death. As the Mountains and Rivers Bell continued ringing, he disappeared from his spot. When he reappeared, he was already behind Wind Lord as he extended his free Dragon Claw towards him.
However, as though there were eyes behind Wind Lords head, he gently flapped the fan in his right hand, after which giant wind blades accurately slashed at Yang Kai.
Whizzing sounds were heard but Yang Kai didnt dodge the attack. As a consequence, new wounds appeared on his huge claw, which was now covered in blood. In a resolute manner, he continued pus.h.i.+ng forward. Wind Lord gritted his teeth as he hadnt expected Yang Kai to be so determined.
He was frustrated at the fact that Yang Kais body was so st.u.r.dy. His wind blades were extremely sharp and they were able to slash the average Emperor Realm Master to pieces; however, Yang Kais Half-Dragon form was extremely tough, so while his wind blades could cut his body, the wounds werent even bone deep.
At the critical moment, Wind Lord transformed into a breeze again and shot up into the sky. To his surprise though, he found the Mountains and Rivers Bell was falling down on him.
Yang Kai had been controlling the bell for some time now, so certainly he would do everything he could to stop Wind Lord from fleeing by turning into wind as he had done so before. As long as he could trap Wind Lord inside the bell, he had a hundred ways to torture him to death.
Naturally, Wind Lord wouldnt get trapped easily, so he quickly changed direction and escaped from the bells suppression before reappearing on the other side of the hall.
The sand in the hourgla.s.s had completely reached the bottom half again. Unable to take it anymore, Yang Kai sprayed out a mouthful of blood as his three-hundred-metre figure shrank by thirty metres. His life was sucked out of him and his vitality had declined, which was why he was unable to fully maintain his Half-Dragon form anymore.
Nonetheless, he didnt stop attacking as he seemed determined to bite off a piece of his opponents flesh even if he died in the process. Charging forward, Yang Kai manipulated s.p.a.ce Principles and launched a series of Moon Blades at his enemy.
Wind Lord infused more Qi into the hourgla.s.s, after which the Moon Blades abruptly stopped in front of him. Then, he nonchalantly walked away and stared at Yang Kai like the latter was a madman, Are you really so eager to die?
Yang Kai put on a hideous grin, Suck all the life out of me if you can!
Wind Lords brow twitched as he turned the hourgla.s.s over again. This time, the sand didnt trickle down quickly as the speed became normal again.
It wasnt that he didnt want to accelerate the sand, but rather that he couldnt anymore. It had only been a hundred years since he obtained the hourgla.s.s, and although he had partially refined it, he was unable to fully utilise the treasures power. He had reached his limit by activating it twice, and he had paid a hefty price to do so.
Yang Kai had figured this out, which was why he appeared so fearless. He was a Third-Order Emperor, so he still had a few thousand years left to live. After the sand in the hourgla.s.s fully reached the other end, it meant that over eight hundred years of Yang Kais life had left him. Since the hourgla.s.s had been used twice, it meant losing some one thousand six hundred years in total. Taking the time that was stolen from him when he was flying across the Two Seasons Mountain Range into consideration as well, Yang Kai figured he still had many years left to live. It was unwise to battle against his opponent when his own life was draining away from him, but he had no other choice; otherwise, he wouldnt have done it.
Seeing as Wind Lord had no other tricks, Yang Kai cackled, Youre dead now!
