Chapter 290: 290 dead!
“Divine Annihilation: The Sixth Form, Celestial Being Withering!”
With a swing of the blade, the encircling darkness that was like solidified ink, halted mid-air.
At the very source of the darkness, Shen Yun, who had just flung aside the two divine beasts and Zhong Zilin, was now being bound by an invisible force in mid-air, and the darkness of his spatial magical domain instantly shattered.
At this moment, Shen Yun felt an unprecedented sense of danger, his pupils instantly constricting.
He was going to die!
The shadow of death shrouded him.
No!
Shen Yun’s expression turned wild, without reservation or regard, he exploded with all the mana within his body, pushing the Taiyou Moon Devouring Technique to its limit.
His body began to dematerialize, blending into the void.
Just then, Gu Yang’s saber reached him, slicing through that space.
The space paused for a moment, and a figure was forced out. It was Shen Yun, his face covered in pain and his clothes becoming filthy.
“My body”
He let out a terrified scream as his face started to decay, and soon, skin and flesh fell off.
He desperately tried to catch the decaying chunks of meat, trying to stuff them back onto his face, but he couldn’t hold on——his palms were decaying too, “No”
At this point, Zhong Zilin had surfaced, witnessing the appalling state of Shen Yun, he couldn’t help but gasp, his scalp tingling.
What kind of saber technique was this?
Shen Yun was at the second level of the Unleaking Realm, even though he hadn’t reached the point of being immune to all methods, he couldn’t be injured by ordinary mana.
Moreover, at this point, even if he suffered a fatal injury, as long as his origin wasn’t drained completely, he could recover quickly.
He was utterly clueless how a warrior at the third level of mana could make Shen Yun end up like this?
Only a curse from a half-god-level witch or demon could have such power, right?!
In an instant, Shen Yun’s screams abruptly stopped, his body already reduced to a puddle of dirty blood. The phoenix beside him spat out a flame, turning that pile of dirty blood into ashes.
An absolute powerhouse at the second level of the Unleaking realm met an inglorious end.
“Did he just die?”
Having witnessed the enemy who exterminated the Zhong family dying in front of his eyes, Zhong Zilin felt slightly dazed.
Five hundred years had passed.
In the five hundred years on the West Bank Continent, there wasn’t a single day that he didn’t think of taking his revenge. This vengeance held him up, helping him overcome numerous difficulties, leading him to his current achievements.
When he finally achieved the Unleaking body, he couldn’t wait to return to Divine State to take revenge on Shen Yun.
He knew Shen Yun’s days were numbered.
He absolutely refused to let Shen Yun die of old age; he vowed to be the one to kill his enemy.
As soon as he came back, he made countless plans on how to gradually dismantle the power of the Shen Family, kill every single member, then join hands with Shen’s enemies to kill Shen Yun…
However, he could never envision that before even reaching the shore, he would encounter Shen Yun.
What was even more unexpected was that this archenemy would die at the hands of a warrior with third-level mana.
Everything happened too quickly; he didn’t even have time to experience the thrill of avenging his enemy.
With a sense of confusion, Zhong Zilin saw the young man’s body withering away visibly, his mana was entirely drained and his mortal body was so weak that he seemed to die at any moment.
If it weren’t for the monster beside him catching him, he would have fallen into the sea.
He understood.
It seemed that to unleash an attack of such immense power required a price to be paid.
In fact, the reason Zhong Zilin dared to come back and seek revenge from Shen Yun, who was superior to him in cultivation level, was that he had a similar do-or-die plan.
At this moment, the young man, standing in the palm of the divine ape, spoke in a weak voice, “Thank you for your help. May I know your name?”
Zhong Zilin saw the sincerity in the other’s eyes and felt a sense of admiration towards him. He was used to the mutual defensiveness and scheming between legendary powerhouses in the West Bank Continent; this was the first time he had met such a candid person. He replied, “Not at all. I am Zhong Zilin, an enemy of Shen Yun.”
The young man perked up, “The surname Zhong, could it be the Zhong Family from Wei State five hundred years ago?”
Upon hearing ‘Zhong Family from Wei State’, Zhong Zilin couldn’t help but remark emotionally, “I never imagined that after several centuries, there are still people who remember the Zhong Family.”
“It’s an honor to meet you, Elder Zhong. My surname is Gu, and my name is Gu Yang.”
“It is I who should thank you for killing that old bastard and avenging my enemy.” Zhong Zilin did not put on airs.
Although the other party looked extremely weak, judging only by the two ultra-class monsters beside him, he could not be underestimated.
Gu Yang responded, “Elder Zhong, you’re too kind. I, too, have a bitter feud with Shen Yun. If not for your timely intervention, he would have escaped, the future trouble would have been endless… cough…”
Saying this, he suddenly started coughing violently.
