Fate-Defying Demon Emperor
Chapter 485: Borrowing the Holy Pattern, Slaying the Supreme
The Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes took the form of snowflakes, with each piece interconnecting to form a colossal Holy Rune Great Formation.
This formation could seal time and space, preventing Saint You Heng from escaping. It also possessed a myriad of other uses, but the Divination King had died under Su Han’s blade before he could display them. And now, after Su Han’s efforts to crack it, he had finally succeeded in seizing reverse control over this Holy Rune Great Formation.
At this moment, Su Han could easily command this formation, just as he could control another’s Holy Artifact with the Secret of the Soldier Character. Moreover, because he had previously filled the gaps with his own Formation Patterns, the power of this Holy Rune Great Formation hadn’t diminished at all; in fact, it had grown even stronger.
WHOOSH!
One by one, the Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes flared to life, spreading rapidly. In the blink of an eye, the entire Holy Rune Great Formation was alight, its divine radiance illuminating all directions. From afar, it was exceptionally beautiful, like a mysterious, otherworldly paradise.
"What? The Holy Rune Great Formation has been activated!" 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
Seeing this, Bi Xue the Supreme’s eyes nearly popped out of his sockets. This was the Holy Rune Great Formation laid by the Divination King; how could Su Han possibly activate it? A chilling sense of imminent doom wrapped around his heart, pressing down like an invisible mountain and filling Bi Xue the Supreme with a terror so great his heart felt as if it would burst.
The activation of the Holy Rune Great Formation also drew the attention of the three Great Saints fighting in the sky above.
Saint You Heng, fighting one against two, was at a disadvantage. He was being forced back step by step, suppressed into a miserable state. Seeing the great formation activate, his heart sank even further.
Could it be that I’m truly going to fall here today?
However, as his gaze swept across the scene, he realized the Divination King’s figure was gone. The one who appeared to be controlling the Holy Rune Great Formation was Su Han. At that, a spark of hope suddenly ignited in his heart.
I almost forgot, he’s an Array Master!
Su Han’s Formation Mastery was so profound that even Master Gong Ming had conceded his inferiority. Though this Holy Rune Great Formation was powerful, cracking it might not be impossible. With this in mind, Saint You Heng placed a sliver of hope in Su Han, his confidence in this battle growing.
Unlike Saint You Heng’s pleasant surprise, Swordsaint and Lan Yi the Female Saint furrowed their brows, overcome with a sense of unease.
The Divination King was actually killed? Even the Holy Rune Great Formation seems off... Things are spiraling out of control. Should we continue the fight or flee?
Swordsaint hesitated. Just then, the Holy Rune Great Formation activated completely, instantly sealing the surrounding time and space. It became like a sealed chamber—inescapable and unbreakable.
Not good!
Feeling the seal on time and space, Swordsaint’s heart sank as he realized something was terribly wrong.
He can actually reverse control of the Holy Rune Great Formation! The situation has turned extremely unfavorable for us.
First, kill Su Han!
Knowing Su Han was the key, Swordsaint decided to eliminate this unstable factor with a thunderous strike.
However, Saint You Heng had been keeping a close eye on him. He had already allowed Swordsaint to get his way once in Cang City; he would not give him another chance. Saint You Heng immediately struck, forcefully pinning down both Swordsaint and Lan Yi the Female Saint to prevent them from threatening Su Han.
Saint You Heng was also taking a gamble. He was betting that Su Han could not only reverse control the great formation but also use it to help him. Otherwise, he was truly no match for two opponents alone.
The battle between the Great Saints grew more intense. The terrifying combat fluctuations made Bi Xue the Supreme’s face turn deathly pale; the pressure was more than he could bear.
Then, Su Han’s eyes snapped open, a sharp light bursting from within. He looked up at Bi Xue the Supreme and decided to test the Holy Rune Great Formation’s power on him.
"Spacetime Sealing!"
The greatest function of the Holy Rune Great Formation was to seal time and space. As Su Han activated the formation, a cascade of Holy Patterns swooped down upon Bi Xue the Supreme. They covered the area like a giant hand blotting out the sky, completely unstoppable.
"Escape!"
The sense of crisis in Bi Xue the Supreme’s heart reached its absolute peak. He no longer dared to fight and immediately turned to flee, desperate to preserve his own life.
However, the space within the Holy Rune Great Formation was limited, and most of it was already engulfed by the fluctuations of the Great Saints’ battle. If Bi Xue the Supreme were to blunder into it, he would die even faster. Soon, he was overtaken by the cascade of Holy Patterns.
The Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes descended like a miniature cage, trapping Bi Xue the Supreme within. Even as a powerful being of the Supreme Realm, he could not break through the space to escape this small prison.
"Blood Sea Domain!"
Bi Xue the Supreme clenched his teeth and fully unleashed his Blood Sea Domain. Instantly, blood waves overwhelmed the sky, the crimson sea surged, and countless wraiths appeared as if from the Hell Nether River.
This time, however, the Blood Sea Domain that Bi Xue the Supreme took so much pride in began to disintegrate, piece by piece. This was the sealing power of the Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes. A Domain is also a form of space, so it could naturally be sealed by the Holy Patterns.
Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!
Bi Xue the Supreme violently shook his head, unable to accept this reality. He struggled frantically, but it was useless. He could only watch helplessly as the Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes closed in, relentlessly consuming his Blood Sea Domain.
Finally, the Blood Sea Domain vanished. The Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes landed on Bi Xue the Supreme, rendering him completely unable to use his Spatial Force. Forget his Domain, he couldn’t even use Teleportation. These Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes were truly the bane of martial artists at the Heavenly King Realm and above.
"Holy Thunder Golden Wheel—slash!"
At this moment, Su Han charged forward. Under his control, the Holy Thunder Golden Wheel transformed into a golden bolt of lightning. Carrying the destructive might of thunder, it spun at high speed, cutting through everything as if it could cleave open a divine palace of metal.
"Nine Palace Golden Pagoda—suppress!"
The Shore Flower Clone also moved, manipulating the Nine Palace Golden Pagoda. It expanded to fifty meters in size as the Qian and Kun palaces within it opened, unleashing a palpable suppressive force as it smashed down toward Bi Xue the Supreme.
Both of these were Holy Artifacts. They had been held back by the Blood Sea Domain before, but now that it was suppressed by the Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes, Bi Xue the Supreme was a mere shadow of a true Supreme, his strength severely limited.
Watching the Holy Thunder Golden Wheel and the Nine Palace Golden Pagoda rapidly approach, Bi Xue the Supreme’s pupils contracted, and panic overwhelmed him. He swiftly drew his Blood Ring and unleashed his Spiritual Energy, launching an all-out attack in a desperate final stand.
Unfortunately, a Supreme who had lost their Domain was only slightly stronger than someone at the Heavenly King Realm, which was nothing before Su Han. Moreover, Bi Xue the Supreme lacked Holy Artifacts and was far less innately gifted than Su Han. Against Su Han’s dominant assault, he could hardly resist.
SPLAT!
Soon enough, Bi Xue the Supreme was defeated by Su Han’s overwhelming attack. A gory wound was slashed across his chest, so deep the bone was visible. His entire body was sent flying backward like a bird with broken wings, crashing to the ground in a wretched state.
"I’ll fight you to the death!"
Knowing his chances of survival were slim, Bi Xue the Supreme’s ferocity was stoked. He lashed out, hoping to kill Su Han in a final gambit.
Unfortunately for him, Su Han, with his Unrivaled Physical Body and control over two Holy Artifacts, possessed tremendous combat power and could easily crush him.
BOOM!
In the end, Bi Xue the Supreme fell in unwilling defeat, pinned to the ground by the Nine Palace Golden Pagoda and unable to move. Then, the Holy Thunder Golden Wheel howled past, cleanly severing his head from his body.
Bi Xue the Supreme had met his demise.
