Chapter 1845: Chapter 1684: The ’Prison’ Fleeing in Panic
This is Ye Xuan’s gamble; he bets that ’Prison’ fears Huang and dares not strike against him, and might flee in panic due to Huang’s presence.
Although Ye Xuan is tense and puts on a show, he still has some confidence in his heart.
After all, in the Ancient Forbidden Land, the Desolate Heaven Finger wounded ’Prison’ so grievously that it fled. Because of this past encounter, ’Prison’s’ fear of Huang has deepened.
Thus, Ye Xuan has some confidence that ’Prison’ does not dare to attack him.
Of course, this all hinges on ’Prison’ believing he is currently Huang; otherwise, Ye Xuan’s efforts would be in vain.
"You dare deceive me?"
Suddenly, ’Prison’ roars fiercely with malicious intent, and terrifying black light blooms, its gaze upon Ye Xuan filled with murderous intent.
Such a scene instantly makes Ye Xuan’s heart skip a beat.
Could it be he didn’t bluff him?
No!
Ye Xuan swiftly calms down, immediately analyzing the cause.
If the opponent truly discovered he was bluffing, they wouldn’t roar at him so fiercely. This is clearly ’Prison’s’ sign of insecurity.
Thud—thud—thud!
With ancient desolation and the solitary path of the great road, Ye Xuan steps towards ’Prison,’ with every step he takes, the surrounding desolate aura thickens, bringing immense psychological pressure to ’Prison.’
Human psychology is peculiar.
The more assertive you are, the more people fear you.
Conversely, if you appear weak or hesitant, it dissipates their vigilance, even emboldens them.
Ye Xuan, having experienced many things, has deep, keen insight. He naturally understands this principle.
So he must appear extremely assertive, so assertive that ’Prison’ feels fear, fear strong enough to make ’Prison’ flee, defeated without a fight.
"Huang!"
As Ye Xuan approaches step by step, ’Prison’ finally panics and howls lowly, eyes filled with fear.
"Stop, you stop right there. If you take another step, I’ll personally destroy Xi Yao the Goddess."
Boom!
’Prison’s’ terrifying fingers press down on the Bronze Ancient Coffin, loudly threatening Ye Xuan.
Buzz!
Desolation solidifies, time and space freeze.
Ye Xuan halts, his desolate eyes just watching ’Prison,’ his voice faintly sounding.
"I’ll give you just three moments to consider; leave Xi Yao here and roll out of the Origin Land, or die here."
Ye Xuan stands with arms folded, his eyes indifferent and ruthless, looking at ’Prison’ with a gaze full of disdain, as if seeing an ant that cannot affect his emotions.
"Aren’t you afraid I’ll destroy her?"
Faced with Ye Xuan’s threat, ’Prison’ angrily roars, his five fingers erupting with terrifying power, as if about to destroy the Bronze Ancient Coffin and the girl inside.
"No!"
’Cang’ urgently shouts, instantly becoming tense.
But the next moment, ’Cang’ hears Liu Baiyi’s voice in his ear. It’s unknown what Liu Baiyi said, but it leaves ’Cang’ dazed, regaining his composure, only a hint of astonishment fleeting across his eyes.
"No one in this world can threaten me. You can try, but you can’t bear the consequences." Ye Xuan says blandly.
Clearly, Ye Xuan projects an indifference towards the girl in the coffin. If ’Prison’ really destroyed Xi Yao, his fate is predictable.
Not to mention Huang reappearing in the world could annihilate him, even the nearby two great ancient lands wouldn’t spare him.
’Prison’s’ only end is a dead end.
"I only give you three moments to consider."
Ye Xuan’s voice sounds again, giving ’Prison’ no time to think, already counting down.
"Three...two...one!"
Rumble!
With ancient desolation, tumult throughout eternity, Ye Xuan raises a finger, and the terrifying Desolate Heaven Finger slowly forms, the dreadful desolate aura instilling infinite ancient terror.
"Huang, someday I’ll make you suffer eternally."
Boom!
Before Ye Xuan forms the Desolate Heaven Finger, ’Prison’ roars in hatred, withdrawing his fingers and vanishing as a black light, clearly lacking the courage to face Huang, unwilling to sacrifice his life here.
Whoosh!
The next moment, ’Cang’ instantly appears before the Bronze Ancient Coffin, quickly retrieving it, deeply regretting his mistakes. Had he been vigilant, how could ’Prison’ have had leverage?
Splurt!
As ’Prison’ flees, a mouthful of blood spews from Ye Xuan, his formidable aura instantly dissipates, complexion pale as snow, he grows weak.
Simulating Huang’s aura is no simple feat.
Considered the greatest of all ages, the primal strongest, emulating Huang’s aura nearly depleted all of Ye Xuan’s cultivation, achievable only under the support of Desolate Heaven Technique; otherwise, how could he have deceived ’Prison’?
Though Ye Xuan successfully intimidated ’Prison,’ now both his cultivation and spirit are extremely depleted.
This experience is more terrifying than life’s battles, the psychological duel nearly tearing Ye Xuan’s Divine Soul.
Fortunately, Ye Xuan succeeded, he fooled the opponent and scared ’Prison’ away.
However, Ye Xuan knows he managed to scare the opponent only by targeting ’Prison’s’ weakness.
Because ’Prison’ inherently fears Huang, in a chaotic mindstate, the opponent naturally would retreat instinctively.
But it won’t take long, when ’Prison’ fully calms and recalls everything, they’ll surely spot the problem.
"Are you okay?"
Liu Baiyi supports Ye Xuan’s collapsing body, a helpless sigh escaping his lips. He initially believed Huang had appeared, but knowing Huang well, he identified the truth, Ye Xuan was merely bluffing.
Given Huang’s temperament and cultivation, he wouldn’t waste so many words; he would have acted and subdued ’Prison’ long ago.
This was the greatest flaw, which ’Prison’ failed to notice in fear, enabling Ye Xuan’s success.
"Thank you."
’Cang’ returns, looking complexly at Ye Xuan, surprised that Ye Xuan resolved this crisis.
"No need to thank me, just protect her well, don’t let this happen again." Ye Xuan weakly speaks.
Having said this, Ye Xuan ignores them, sits cross-legged, begins restoring his depleted cultivation and Divine Soul; projecting Huang’s aura inflicted great damage.
...
Elsewhere!
A mysterious dark space.
’Prison’ sits cross-legged, aura gradually stabilizing, and after unknown time, his eyes abruptly open.
"Damn it!"
Boom!
Shocking, world-shattering, anger burning the sky, an extremely unruly and violent aura erupts from him, his expression one of extreme shame and anger.
