Chapter 547: Chapter 453: Blood God Sacrifice, Arrival of Terror

The scarlet divine light devoured everything; white bones spread a deathly stillness, the starry sky trembled. This was a true Evil God battle, where two cosmic forces clashed, as if reenacting primeval times.

The Blood God had completely gone mad. Millennia of silence, countless schemes, only to be betrayed by a companion when the moment arrived, even an Evil God couldn’t accept it.

True Monarch Chi Kong, in the form of a Bone Armor Star Beast, also harbored an overwhelming murderous intent. To him, millennia of downfall, everything in the past was like a nightmare. The newly awake him did not want to become someone else’s prey again.

The two Evil Gods had already ignited true fire, attacking without mercy.

Zhang Kui kept retreating, continuously calculating in his mind.

To him, these characters were just old ghosts from the past, carrying various scheming remnants to this day. It would be best if they died completely, but should their chaos get out of hand, it would pose a problem. After all, this was also his homeland where he survived.

Luckily, this place was the Desolate Ancient Battlefield; the ancient war had already completely turned many star zones into ruins, so the chaos could only increase at most.

What troubled him was that these two were both Starry Sky Evil Gods, nurturing cosmic membranes. Although all kinds of unbelievable divine power couldn’t be displayed, their primary forces were nearly inexhaustible and equally matched.

The ancient texts acquired from the old ghost recorded: During the internal war of antagonistic Immortal Kings of the Ancient Immortal Dynasty, two Immortal Kings had fought in the Endless Void for hundreds of years, then each returned home, patting their backs. If these two were to fight for several hundred years, it would undoubtedly affect the southern star realm.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t intervene in such a battle level.

As he was contemplating countermeasures, a vast red and white light suddenly collided fiercely in the starry sky, then quickly separated to confront each other in the dark sky.

What happened?

Zhang Kui was puzzled when a strong alert from an emerging skill came; it was an unprecedented feeling, as if everything was extinguished, death itself descended upon the world, making one’s scalp tingle, and the Divine Soul became blank.

Damn, a great terror is awakening!

Zhang Kui had a dreadful guess in his mind, gritting his teeth and retreating once again.

Unknowingly, he had come close to the southern part of the Desolate Ancient Battlefield. It was the first time he entered this place, slaying the Star Whale Evil Spirit back then. Further on was the southern star realm.

"Hahaha..."

True Monarch of Blood Prison suddenly burst into a frenzied and joyful laughter, "Chi Kong, you never expected this, did you? His Majesty Immortal King is actually reviving on his own, your traitorous Divine Soul will be suppressed in the Nine Netherworld, never to rise again!"

"Humph!"

The eyes of the humanoid bone-structured star beast filled with fear, but then it became fierce again, snorting coldly: "There are only signs of awakening. Turning from death to life, reversing the Great Path cannot be easy. Otherwise, the corpse I suppressed long ago would have come back to life. You’re celebrating too early!"

"Is that so? Then why are you afraid? Hahaha..."

True Monarch of Blood Prison laughed wildly and arrogantly, the giant blood sphere like a star suddenly had violent turmoils, and the sea of blood, as if boiling, gurgled with blood bubbles, while the vast and magnificent blood light also began to contract.

"What are you doing?!"

True Monarch Chi Kong’s voice carried a hint of fear, hissing and roaring angrily: "You actually sacrificed yourself to assist that old guy in resurrection, crazy, crazy!"

"Hahaha..."

True Monarch of Blood Prison continued to laugh, his voice full of fanaticism, "You don’t understand, you simply don’t understand. Everything will eventually perish, even those ancient Evil Gods cannot escape, only the Immortal King can bring us across the other side, only he..."

His voice grew weaker, the blood light on him dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye, the overwhelming sea of blood on the planet star grew calm, slowly turning black, and the giant white jade-like mask began to yellow and corrupt...

Madman!

Even Zhang Kui silently cursed in his heart, gritting his teeth and casting a spell to perform the Observing Through a Wall Immortal Skill. The cosmic stardust in his eyes rotated, and he immediately saw a different scene.

First, there was the blood-colored star. All power, life force, and law continuously transformed into streaming light, shrinking inward accompanying the strange and grand sacrificial sound.

In the starry sky, a massive transparent object appeared, floating like silk or membrane, slowly detaching from the Blood God Star...

Cosmic Membrane?

Zhang Kui was taken aback; he had never heard that such a thing could detach.

Of course, a Starry Sky Dominator, created artificially, willingly sacrificing himself, such an event was extremely rare.

Zhang Kui had a strong intuition that this Cosmic Membrane was a very precious and important treasure. Missing it would be a lifelong regret!

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and quickly shifted his body, using the Transportation Skill mid-air. The brilliant Immortal King Tower appeared roaringly above the Cosmic Membrane, stored it, and quickly returned.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye; the Blood God’s consciousness was about to dissipate, allowing Zhang Kui to seize it effortlessly.

Although True Monarch Chi Kong, the Bone Armor Star Beast, saw it, he merely snorted coldly, unable to care about it. The murderous intent on him surged continuously, as if he wanted to take action but dared not approach. Hesitant, he began retreating, trying to escape.

Zhang Kui had no time to check the Cosmic Membrane inside the Immortal King Tower; he turned to leave. The Observing Through a Wall Immortal Skill he cast earlier couldn’t see what’s inside, and that terrifying feeling of death’s arrival grew stronger and stronger.

Immortal King Chi Chong’s resurrection was inevitable, and whatever the consequence may be, it was something he currently couldn’t face.

The Celestial Essence Star Realm had already activated, perhaps ready to wander through the stars.

Thud!

The now black and corrupt Blood God Star suddenly gave a violent shudder, large sections of the star began to crumble, and the fragments scattered into the void.

That is... a heartbeat!

Zhang Kui felt his scalp tingle, quickly increasing his speed to leave.

On the other side, after the grand heartbeat sounded, the Bone Armor Star Beast attempting a Star Shift to escape suddenly froze, eyes filled with unprecedented fear.

"No, no, ancestor, spare me!"

However, it was too late. That collapsing Blood God Star seemed to have unending gravity. The massive body of the Bone Armor Star Beast rolled over in space, flying towards the decaying gigantic mask.

"Ah—!"

The True Monarch Chikong, the Bone Armor Star Beast, let out a frenzied screech, "I knew it! I knew you did something!"

He tried to muster all his strength, but the bones within the cosmic membrane seemed entirely lifeless, unable to be driven.

"Chi Chong, I’d rather die than let you succeed!"

In endless terror, True Monarch Chikong went completely mad, with cracks appearing on his enormous Bone Armor Star Beast head, dazzling white light flickering, seemingly attempting to self-destruct his Divine Soul.

Boom!

The Blood God’s already yellowed and decaying giant mask shattered grandly as a large clawed hand suddenly reached out.

The figure beneath the big hand was only a hundred meters tall, with a tattooed Crystal Armor emitting a faint glow. Compared to True Monarch Chikong’s moon-star-like massive form, it was insignificant.

Yet, as the clawed hand fiercely grasped, True Monarch Chikong’s entire body suddenly froze and shattered with a boom, as if a river of bones constructed in space rushed towards the Blood God Star, enveloping it heavily.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

The heartbeat grew heavier, more frequent, and huge black thunder appeared in the void, crazily striking the Bone Armor Star, splashing out massive chaotic energy.

At the same time, this heartbeat instantly spread across the Longevity Star Realm, appearing in the hearts of all living beings in a manner difficult to comprehend.

...

Vast Sea Star Realm.

The death of the Venerable Sea Dragon had not yet been reported, though elite army corps of various races were taken away, many Starships were left for defense, and countless mundane beings of each race remained.

Upon hearing the heartbeat, they exchanged looks, then overwhelming terror rose in their hearts, causing them to irrationally bow continuously towards the direction of the Desolate Ancient Battlefield...

...

Black Tide Zone in the Deceitful Immortal World.

True Monarch Yinghai stood on a tumor-like star with an uncertain gaze, surrounded by several Deceitful Immortals, who kept their heads low in silence.

This time they suffered heavy losses; the Deceitful Immortals, already few in number, perished entirely at the Desolate Ancient Battlefield, leaving even the sole remaining Star Realm utterly shattered.

"Given the situation, we..."

True Monarch Yinghai had only spoken half a sentence when they all heard the heartbeat. They exchanged looks, gazing towards the center of the Desolate Ancient Battlefield, eyes filled with fear...

...

Deep within a massive star dust fragment of the Desolate Ancient Battlefield.

The Netherworld Realm Master’s mutated monstrous corpse hovered in the air, three-headed, six-armed, and sinister, with blood-yellow flames nearly twisting the void.

Around him were remnants of several Starships and countless bloody detached limbs, marking a gathering place for a wandering race, having narrowly escaped the Blood God Sect but found by a more terrifying monstrous corpse.

Whether Immortal Level or mundane beings, even the Starship remnants’ Divine Materials and Spirit Charm were completely drained, leaving decay and ruin.

The heartbeat sounded, and the monstrous corpse suddenly lifted its head, emitting a shrill, frenzied scream, causing the surrounding star fragments to explode instantly...

...

In the southern Star Realm, chaos had already erupted.

Numerous Starships soared from the Celestial Essence Mall Star Reef, like ten thousand meteors streaking across the darkness, fleeing into the depths of space.

"Quick, quick, a great calamity is imminent!"

"What the hell is happening?"

"Who the hell knows!"

The people onboard the Starships were near madness; those at the Immortal Level could barely resist the heartbeat, merely sensing endless terror, while the mundane beings, terrified to the point of losing sanity, continuously bowed.

...

Boom!

On the first layer grassland of Celestial Essence Star Realm, the Immortal Sect hummed with vibration as the Power of Space continuously spread.

Zhang Kui strode out from the white light, meeting the waiting Tai Shi True God and the worried high officials of the Divine Dynasty.

"Sect Leader, what happened?"

With a furrowed brow, Yuan Huang hurriedly stepped forward to inquire.

However, before Zhang Kui could speak, that terrifying heartbeat echoed within everyone’s hearts...
