Talisman Emperor
Chapter 1698 – Sudden Death
The surroundings were silent.
It was common knowledge that when the Enlightened Domain Spirit God had nine Divine Altar Spirit Lamps in the Dao Dao Altar in their souls, they could already be considered a Great God God, already, and they could look down on most of their peers.
For example, everyone around him were such figures.
Moreover, Spirit God Exalts were extremely rare and one in a million. For example, there were an entire 1,000 plus regions and countless universes in the Ancient Gods Domain. However, only a small portion of these areas can produce Great God Spirits.
After all, existences at such a level had reached the limits of the Enlightened Domain Spirit God Realm, and they were unprecedented.
However, there had always been legends in the boundless years that the Ancient Gods Territory had existed. This legend said that there was a perfect state above the Great God God, and it had broken through the boundary. Said to be the foremost, the stage of peerless exaltation!
Such a stage was called the perfection-stage of the Enlightened Domain Realm God Realm, and its main trait was to possess the Supreme Divine Dao Altar!
This of course did not refer to the experts who had one spirit light on their Divine Dao Altar, and it was the act of combining all nine God Altar Spirit Lights into one to establish the Divine Altar Lightwheel!
Because too few experts had reached such a state from ancient times to the present day, most of the people in the world were completely unaware of this state, and even to the point that some people had never even heard of such a legend.
However, to the Great God God who came from the upper-class sects and clans of the Imperial Region, they were naturally clearly aware that it was not a legend and there was a real one.
For example, Yea Chen who was ranked 1st on the Domain Enlightened Chart was the best proof!
Yet now, in this peak battle with Luo Shaonong, Chen Xi had completely revealed the power of the Supreme Divine Dao Altar, so it naturally seemed a little shocking and unbelievable.
Coupled with the fact that he was unknown in the Ancient Gods Domain before this, and his name did not appear in the Domain Enlightened Chart. All of this seemed even more unimaginable.
At this moment, Chen Xi seemed to have become the center of attention. He was dressed in green clothes and stood alone with a sword in hand. He still looked the same as before, but everyone's heart had a deep shock of fear and even terror towards him now!
…
Luo Shaonong coughed up blood as he stood up. He wiped away the bloodstains at the corner of his mouth, and he stared fixedly at Chen Xi while revealing an extremely complicated expression.
I lost! I actually lost to a young man who was completely unheard of in the Ancient Gods Domain!
At this moment, the always proud and arrogant Luo Shaonong could not help feeling a deep sense of defeat, and he was unable to accept such a result.
He looked towards the Sacred Temple of Master Xuan in the distance, and he was clearly aware that the Sovereign Emperor Dao Root he had dreamed of was inside there. As long as he snatched away that Ancestral Dao Root, then he would not have to fear the God of the Enlightened Universe in the Universe once he advanced into the Enlightened Universe God Realm.
However, the prerequisite was that he get rid of this hindrance, Chen Xi!
However ... based on the current situation, could there be a suitable one for Chen Xi?
Stomp on! Stomp on!
These thoughts flashed instantaneously in Luo Shaonong's heart, and before he could make a decision, a wave of footsteps rang out in the sky.
Chen Xi attacked once again with a sword in hand, and the space between her eyebrows was covered with a murderous and cold expression while she revealed an imposing aura that was suppressing.
You're too far away! Could it be that this person really intended to kill me?
Luo Shaonong was angry in his heart. He did not believe that Chen Xi dared to kill him, but he still felt that Chen Xi's actions were a form of trampling on his pride, and it caused his expression to instantly become gloomy and angry.
Luo Shaonong had already decided. At this moment, if Chen Xi dared to force him into a hopeless situation, then he would summon all the Great God Immortals to attack Chen Xi together and fight Chen Xi desperately to death!
Pu's!
But right at this moment, a muffled voice sounded.
Chen Xi stopped abruptly before quickly turning her head, and she saw that Zhen Liuqing was coughing up blood in the distance while her beautiful face was deathly pale. Moreover, the space between his eyebrows was filled with an expression of pain and struggling while his slender and refined figure trembled nonstop. He seemed to endure a form of extreme torment and pain.
Chen Xi's heart instantly trembled while her face slightly changed. He could not be bothered to continue fighting Luo Shaonong, and he flashed to Zhen Liuqing's side while he said anxiously, “Liuqing, what happened?”
At this moment, the others were also shocked, and then they sighed a sigh of relief in their hearts. Since something unexpected had happened to Zhen Liuqing, it had happened only to prevent Chen Xi from continuing his attack, and it had helped them deal with this dangerous situation.
Only Luo Shaonong seemed to realize something, and he glanced at Gongye Zhefu who was standing at the side. Sure enough, he saw the corner of the latter's mouth filled with a cold smile, and Gongye Zhefu looked at Zhen Liuqing with an icy cold gaze.
“I ... I'm fine ... Ah !! ”The whole body of Zhen Liuqing trembled even harder, and her beautiful face grew pale and translucent. Moreover, the space between his brows was covered by an expression of pain, and he himself was bathed in cold sweat. In the end, he could not help but spit out a pool of blood, and the blood showed a strange mottled color, yet it smelled extremely sweet and seductive.
However, Chen Xi instantly determined that it was an extremely poisonous form of poison!
This caused his face to instantly sink while a terrifying wisp of killing intent covered the space between his eyebrows. He gritted his teeth and said, “Who did this?”
“No need ... no need to worry about .. I ....” Zhen Liuqing's pretty face was gloomy while his voice grew weaker and weaker. In the end, his figure had completely weakened to the point of being unable to support him, causing him to fall to the ground.
“Liuqing!” Chen Xi hurriedly hugged him, and he was anxious, furious, and in pain.
“You're the one who poisoned him?” He spoke word for word, and his voice was like being squeezed from the gap between his teeth. Although his face was calm, those familiar with him clearly realized that he was really angry.
At this moment, Gongye Zhefu's angry expression carried a hint of complacency, and it looked rather terrifying. He said proudly, “This is not poison because no poison in the world can kill a god.”
He paused for a moment before saying unhurriedly. “Whatever exactly it is …. Haha, kneel down for me, and I will tell you slowly. Okay?”
His words were filled with a complacent tone of revenge, and it carried a kind of intent to humiliate and provoke as well.
Chen Xi's eyes narrowed while the killing intent in the depths of his eyes was already boiling. Since he entered the Ancient Gods Domain, he had never had such a strong and urgent desire to kill someone like him now.
“Let Liuqing go, and I will spare you all this time.” Chen Xi took a deep breath, forcefully held the anger in her heart, and spoke slowly.
“Hahaha ..” Gongye Zhefu raised his head and laughed out loud while his silver hair fluttered. After which, he held back a laugh and spoke in a disdainful tone. “Chen Xi, do you really like it? Can't you give her life? Now, I'm just asking you to kneel. Could it be that you can't even do that? “
Chen Xi's expression was already indifferent to the limit while excessive killing intent piled up all over her body, and she was barely able to hold back.
However, the more he looked like this, the more delighted Gongye Zhefu felt in his heart. He laughed out loud and said, “Quick. If you continue to waste time, then the woman will not be able to last much longer. “
Before Chen Xi could speak, she continued. “Of course, after you get down on your knees, I will definitely tell you exactly what happened here, and I will even help her ease the pain she felt. However, all of this will depend on your performance. “
“Kneel!”
“Chen Xi, if the news that you are kneeling for the woman you love enters the outside world, wouldn't that be a good form of reputation?”
“Looks like I have to kneel, unless he wants to see that woman die!”
In the distance, Di Jun and the others could not resist Chen Xi's ridicule and laughed out loud. They felt that Gongye Zhefu had grabbed onto Chen Xi's weak spot, and Chen Xi could not act wild anymore.
Only Luo Shaonong frowned. He seemed to feel beneath him to use a woman to coerce Chen Xi, but in the end he did not say anything.
At normal times, using such despicable methods against the enemy would definitely make them all feel ashamed. However, at this moment, for the sake of dealing with Chen Xi, they became completely shameless and exposed a very bad side of them.
“What are you doubtful for? Kneel down! ”Gongye Zhefu shouted loudly, and he spoke in an arrogant manner.
“Do not!” Suddenly, Zhen Liuqing somehow exerted strength to hold tightly onto Chen Xi's clothes, and he shouted. “Chen Xi, don't approve it! I have been dropped by the Ancient Lich Restrictions, and Gongye Zhefu is unable to finish it at all! “
Ancient Lich Restrictions? Chen Xi felt a wave of uneasiness in her heart. It was the first time he had heard of such a thing, so he was naturally powerless against it and did not know where to start.
“Grut! If you dare to speak a word, then believe me, I will definitely bury your Master with you! “Gongye Zhefu's face sank, and he cursed in a loud voice.
Zhen Liuqing's entire body stiffened, and he revealed an extremely sad and suffering expression. This sight caused Chen Xi's heart to be extremely ill, and she hated Gongye Zhefu to the bone.
At this moment, he finally understood why Zhen Liuqing was constantly refusing to admit it. It turned out that he was charged by this Ancient Lich Restriction, and even his Master, Daoist Dao Que, had been captured by the Gongye Clan!
Under such circumstances, anyone would probably be led by Gongye Zhefu and have no choice but to obey him.
That damned bastard! Chen Xi's eyes looked like they were burning and surging with an extremely frightening and unstoppable killing intent.
Right at this moment, Zhen Liuqing suddenly struggled to raise his head in his arms, and his clear eyes were staring at Chen Xi while he said in a weak voice, “Chen Xi, you know. I have always ...really envious of Qing Xiuyi. She ... have a child with you .. anyways …. Because ... My lord and I were arrested .. The thing I fear the most is ... being .. not being able to see you ... again .. my whole life …. Now ... see you like this .. I feel that .. I will not feel regret ... even in death! “
Chen Xi felt another wave of piercing pain in her heart while an indescribable fury surged throughout her body like lava, and she was on the verge of exploding.
“Enough! I'll definitely save you! “Chen Xi spoke in a low voice. His voice looked like it was squeezed from his chest, and it was a mixture of sadness and anger as it surged through the heavens and earth.
All the others around him were a little anxious when they saw this. Especially Gongye Zhefu, she vaguely felt that the situation was bad, and she roared out loud. “Grut! Do not even think that you will be able to gain freedom in death! Don't forget that your master is still locked up until now! “
However, Zhen Liuqing did not seem to have heard any of this. The sad expression on his face disappeared, and was replaced by a blushing blob. His gaze was gentle like water as he raised his fair hand that was slightly trembling, and he touched Chen Xi's face while muttering as if he was talking in his sleep. “Being able to love someone who loves me in my life and being embraced by you while my body is still pure…. Even if I die like this, I will still feel very happy .. ”
His voice grew weaker and weaker until it disappeared completely.
Suddenly he died.
The wisp of a sincere smile still hung at the corner of her mouth, and she revealed a calm and beautiful demeanor just like when she met him for the first time.
He still did not dare to believe his eyes, and he just stared blankly at everything in front of him. After which, he suddenly raised his hand, and he howled with extreme sadness and anger while a heart-piercing pain swept across his heart and nearly strangled him.
“NO!!!!”
…
Author's Note: I am aware that many people will be happy to see something happen to Zhen Liuqing. But in my heart, Zhen Liuqing has always been as pure and beautiful as when I first wrote about her. Regarding whether he really died, I will write it myself, and I will ignore the opinions of all ‘specialists’ in the comments.
