Chapter 704: Chapter 80: Chang’e?! Demon Race Great Saint
Kong Xuan’s left hand spread its five fingers, the five-colored divine light swept across the sky, spreading in all directions, with a destructive power enough to slay a Dharma Form Great Power.
However, with a sizzling sound, the ghost creatures that the five-colored divine light swept over emitted black smoke from their bodies, yet they continued to pounce forward, unaffected.
Kong Xuan couldn’t help but frown slightly, "These ghost creatures are truly troublesome. Without any means of restraint, even a Dharma Form Great Power would avoid them at all costs. If encircled, death is certain."
"Boom!"
He gently vibrated the Undying Saber in his hand, the light of the saber slicing through the air, each streak containing an extremely terrifying sharpness and killing intent, instantly turning a dozen ghost creatures pouncing in front of him into ashes.
"Wuwu..."
Suddenly, a weeping sound like a baby’s cry, resembling an ape’s cry, echoed terrifyingly in the dark ancient hall, sending chills down the listener’s spine.
Kong Xuan immediately rushed forward, arrived in front of that lamp, and with one slash, unleashed an unrestrained saber light, turning all the surrounding ghost creatures into powder.
The previously raging black flames suddenly calmed down, everything fell silent, not a sound was heard.
Yet, Kong Xuan felt a sense of unease in his heart, an ominous aura was spreading, as if something was about to happen.
Sure enough, it wasn’t long before a piercing scream broke the silence, followed by a scene that made one’s scalp tingle.
The lamp suddenly became volatile, and countless ghost creatures surged, almost boiling, the demon qi soaring to the sky, the noise deafening, and the ghostly cries sent a chill to the soul.
Then, thousands upon thousands of ghost creatures surged out from the lamp fire, pouncing towards Kong Xuan, like a tide of ghosts, a chilling sight.
Kong Xuan encountered great trouble, engulfed by the sea of ghosts. The Undying Saber could cut through all obstacles, but there were strong ghost creatures among them, with copper sinews and iron bones, impervious to weapons, and surely were Great Demon Kings or Dharma Form-level beings in life.
He kept fighting, trapped in a predicament, because there were too many ghost creatures, even Taoist Master and Divine Venerate-level ones, such as ghost kings who had perfected the twelfth layer of Tao cultivation in life. Though they lost their past cultivation, they remained terrifyingly formidable.
Just as he thought of breaking through the ghost tide to retreat, a gentle moonlight suddenly fell from the Nine Heavens, blooming with immeasurable divine glow, illuminating the entire great hall, and dispersing the dense ghost mist.
Vaguely, Kong Xuan seemed to hear a woman’s whisper.
"You’ve finally arrived, I’ve been waiting for you for so long." This voice seemed engraved in time, drifting from an ancient past, endless and unceasing.
The moonlight fell, the divine brilliance surged, scattering the black mist, quenching the ghost fire, obliterating all ghost creatures.
Kong Xuan couldn’t help but look up at the bright moon in the sky, just a thread of moonlight instantly turned the tide, causing the ghost creatures to collapse.
But what actually is that lamp? How could there be two completely opposing entities, sacred and evil, in this coffin?
"Boom"
Suddenly, black flames surged to the sky, like waves crashing the shore, trying to burn a hole in the firmament.
The creature within the ghost lamp seemed to be awakening, possessing a demonic quality, blazing black flames, capable of devouring even the heavens and earth, distorting the surrounding space, causing the void to continuously collapse, terrifyingly boundless.
Kong Xuan immediately changed color, feeling an immensely fearful threat, belonging to a Supreme Celestial Venerate-level great power.
"Roar...
A great roar echoed, causing heaven and earth to crumble, emerging from the ancient lamp. If not for the bell on the Undying Saber violently shaking, ringing with a crisp sound, Kong Xuan would surely have been injured.
"Chang’e, you’ve ruined my great endeavor, endless ages of planning destroyed in an instant, yet you still want to stop me now?"
"Even if I shatter you to pieces, it won’t quell my hatred."
A flood of overwhelming flame instantly engulfed the heavens and earth, threatening to explode the entire cosmos within the coffin, the demon qi towering, absolutely an Ancient Demon Saint.
Moonlight, resembling glass, descended from the heavens, completely enveloping Kong Xuan’s body. No matter how overwhelming the flame surged, the moonlight remained eternal and undying.
"Chang’e?!"
Kong Xuan felt as if a thunderbolt exploded in his mind, this name he hadn’t heard in such a long time, the world’s mythology and legends seemed both familiar and unfamiliar to him.
Among which the mention of Chang’e was never before mentioned.
"Chang’e, are you still alive? Hundreds of years ago, I sensed your last trace of spirituality had already vanished, how could you still be alive?" the terrifying Demon Saint shouted, the flames surging, boiling with rage.
"You wretched dog, you’re truly incorrigible." An extremely cold voice suddenly came from the bright moon above, though no figure was seen, just hearing the voice evoked a feeling of clarity and flawlessness.
A stunningly beautiful woman was it!
"Chang’e, these years I’ve had enough, today I’m definitely leaving, if you stop me, I’ll shatter this world and refine your remnants to dust." The Demon Saint in the lamp shouted fiercely.
"Sigh, I am but an abandoned one, long should have been buried in the sands of time. The only reason I’ve preserved a thread of spirituality all these innumerable years was to watch over you, this harbinger of disaster, to prevent catastrophic outcomes."
"If you listen to me, continue staying here, refining the malice and killing intent within you, there will eventually be a way out for you."
"But if you’re incorrigible, you will eventually lose your spirituality, immersing in eternal reincarnation with this period of time."
Kong Xuan’s expression shifted slightly, the words from these two ancient existences contained much hidden knowledge.
Especially the one called Chang’e, she seemed to not belong to this world at all.
"Continuing to stay here, eventually, one day you’ll completely refine me, even my body will be refined into this lamp, leaving nothing behind."
"Chang’e, don’t think you can deceive me!" This Ancient Demon Race Great Saint’s words echoed with a clanging sound, his killing intent like swords, recklessly slicing in all directions, carving slits across the ancient hall.
"Moreover, do you still think you are the former Taiyin Star Monarch? Merely a remnant of spirituality left behind, after all these years, how much power could you possibly have remaining?"
"Even if I can’t eradicate you today, I will definitely leave this place."
"I have my eyes on this boy, his body is mine."
This tyrannical and domineering Ancient Demon Race Great Saint, originally a beast shadow crouched in the lamp flame, now transformed into an incomparably burly and towering human figure, clad in black armor.
Billions of threads of flame burst from his body, each thread terrifyingly sharp, slashing in all directions, with one step he emerged from the lamp, locking eyes with Kong Xuan.
"Incorrigible ferocity as expected!" The voice of the woman in the moonlight lamented, then suddenly, a haunting melody emerged from the sky, in the void intricate runes interwoven by the music, like an eagle soaring above, filled with incredibly mysterious Tao rhythm.
"Clang", "Clang"
The Demon Saint struck, each attack caused flames to splatter, violently colliding with the moonlight runes, at their level, every strike was of the great Tao law.
If not for the special nature of this ancient hall as a cage crafted by this world, their battle would have long shattered the surrounding large areas.
Without any warning, the two sides began a fierce battle, while Lu Chengfeng stood within the moonlight, watching everything unfold.
The ethereal music in the moonlight spread like fairy tunes throughout heaven and earth, interwoven with the moonlight, pressing down on the Demon Saint.
Boundless light bloomed, facing off against the Ancient Demon Race Great Saint, igniting various bursts of light woven below the firmament.
"Chang’e! Chang’e! Chang’e!"
"Die for me!"
Accompanying the frenzied roar, a colossal shadow emerged from behind the Demon Saint, resembling a massive ferocious dog covering the sky.
The moment the shadow appeared, it lunged directly towards the bright moon in the sky.
"I will devour you!"
The celestial dog eclipse, like a mythical scene, reemerged before Kong Xuan’s eyes.
