Chapter 3019: It’s Your Turn
The Purple Emperor kept retreating as the fighting continued to intensify. Suddenly, Sovereign Dou Sheng beckoned, and his golden cudgel flew towards him. He smashed it down once more, but this time, instead of taking the blow with his body, the Purple Emperor moved forward and punched the hand that held the golden cudgel. The Sovereign struggled to maintain his grip on his cudgel, but he still reacted very quickly. Even as he let go of his weapon, his foot snapped out, and the kick nearly shattered the Purple Emperor’s upper body.
The Purple Emperor was knocked back, and Sovereign Dou Sheng grabbed hold of his cudgel, ending the exchange.Vissit for updates
The cudgel dropped again, but this time, the Purple Emperor could not escape.
He looked up, his white eye staring at Sovereign Dou Sheng. The Purple Emperor completely ignored the falling cudgel and simply stared at Sovereign Dou Sheng.
Just as the golden cudgel was about to strike, it froze in place. Sovereign Dou Sheng froze as well, and his expression changed drastically as he locked eyes with the Purple Emperor. “What is this?”
“Attack!” the Purple Emperor ordered. Every part of his body was bleeding.
The nine-headed bird instantly appeared out of nowhere, its massive body covering the sky as it raised its nine heads up high. It let out a piercing shriek. Three of its heads and six of its eyes stared down at Sovereign Dou Sheng. “Die, Dou Sheng!”
Sovereign Dou Sheng felt a chill come over him. The nine-headed bird possessed an innate gift of cursing. Anyone who was targeted would essentially have their life linked to one of the bird’s heads. If that head was cut off, the person’s life would end. This was the nine-headed bird’s most terrifying ability, and it was also the reason why the Purple Emperor had ordered the bird to launch a surprise attack.
Only the nine-headed bird could kill Sovereign Dou Sheng for sure. It cursed the man, willing to sacrifice three of its heads.
In normal circumstances, the nine-headed bird would never dare to make any trouble for Sovereign Dou Sheng, but the man was immobilized, so the bird quickly seized the rare opportunity, confident in its ability to kill the man.
When the three heads targeted him, Sovereign Dou Sheng felt as though his perspective had somehow shifted and that his life had been tied to three of the nine-headed bird’s heads.
“It’s over!” the nine-headed bird shrieked triumphantly. With this, its reputation would soar, and it would even surpass Astral Anura. Much like humans and many other creatures, the nine-headed bird was extremely vain.
It was a critical moment, and Sovereign Dou Sheng clenched his teeth. He refused to accept this as his end.
His blood boiled, and he prepared to use Triumphant Brawl—
Suddenly, a gray figure flickered by, and it slammed into the nine-headed bird.
The bird was knocked aside, and its opportunity to curse Sovereign Dou Sheng was ruined.
Such an unexpected development drew everyone’s attention.
“Seven-Star Mantis?”
“Seven-Star Mantis?”
“Seven-Star Mantis?”
The Purple Emperor and everyone else present was shocked. “Aren’t you dead?”
“No!” The creature of pure energy spoke for the first time, its voice reminiscent of ripples fluctuating across a lake. “That is nothing but energy.”
Everyone continued to stare at the Seven-Star Mantis, and they quickly realized that it looked different from what they remembered. This creature looked like a gray copy of the original.
The nine-headed bird was absolutely furious. “Seven-Star Mantis, no matter who you might be, stopping me from cursing Dou Sheng deserves death!”
As the bird spoke, one of its heads stared at the Seven-Star Mantis, while another three resumed focusing on Sovereign Dou Sheng. The bird refused to abandon this opportunity to curse the Sovereign.
Sovereign Dou Sheng sneered. “So this is your ultimate plan, to use three losers.”
As he spoke, his cudgel rose high and then slammed back down.
The Purple Emperor instantly dodged, but this attack was not aimed at him, but rather at the creature of pure energy.
Only by eliminating that creature would Sovereign Dou Sheng be able to unleash his full strength. As long as the odd lifeform was around, the Sovereign would be locked in a desperate fight against the Purple Emperor.
The creature of pure energy simply vanished, even as the clear light spread out once more. This time, it enveloped the Seven-Star Mantis, which was instantly dispersed.
Far away, Lu Yin was shocked to see his champion vanish. His summon had been erased.
Unfortunately for the nine-headed bird, Lu Yin was aware of its secret, and he would not allow it to form a connection with him that easily.
The easiest way for Lu Yin to accomplish this was to simply release the universe from his chest and use the shell of the Hollow to block the sequence particles.
The nine-headed bird was shocked by what it saw. “Huh?”
Before it could question the matter any further, Lu Yin used Inverse Step to move at the speed of time and close in on the bird.
The nine-headed bird knew that something was wrong the moment Lu Yin vanished, and it frantically released its sequence particles.
While its sequence particles were invisible to ordinary people, they still suppressed Lu Yin’s ability to move at the speed of time, and he was forced out. The nine-headed bird was no less wary than the Seven-Star Mantis or Jing Zhe.
All of these creatures were always extremely cautious.
This was the second time that Lu Yin had appeared to stop the nine-headed bird’s attack on Sovereign Dou Sheng, which allowed the man to attack the Purple Emperor once more.
It was at that moment that Sovereign Lotus finally arrived.
“That creature of pure energy is yours!” Lu Yin shouted.
Sovereign Lotus scanned the battlefield, and her eyes focused on the being of pure energy. A lotus bloomed as the woman entered the fray.
There were three humans fighting, and each of them faced their own formidable foe.
The creature of pure energy left Lu Yin feeling sick, as it was able to simply invalidate both his Champions’ Stage and Investiture of the Gods. It might even be capable of disrupting the universe in his chest. For Lu Yin, the nine-headed bird was a much easier opponent, as he already understood it quite well. Additionally, if he could get close to the bird, he would be able to Possess and control it.
However, the bird was too cautious. It shrank down, and all nine of its heads turned to stare at Lu Yin. “You’re seeking death!”
Lu Yin sneered. “Today, I’m going to anoint another champion!”
The nine-headed bird bristled as its invisible sequence particles went after Lu Yin. The bird aimed for the young man’s limbs, eyes, ears, mouth, nose, and every single part of the human’s body.
This was how the nine-headed bird attacked, and even when it did not eliminate its foes by decapitating itself, most foes were unable to stand up to the bird in a fight.
However, Lu Yin intimately understood the bird and its methods. He knew that it was focused on him, and his entire body instantly withered.
The nine-headed bird’s sequence particles were unpredictable, so Lu Yin used Extremes Must Be Reversed on his entire body, which gave him a desiccated appearance. Every place the nine-headed bird tried to target would suffer damage, which would cause it to recover back to normal.
When the nine-headed bird saw Lu Yin’s body dry up, it was shocked. All nine pairs of its eyes instantly narrowed, and fear entered its cries. “Extremes Must Be Reversed?”
Lu Yin was taken aback. “You actually know about Extremes Must Be Reversed?”
“What’s your connection to that bastard who can't be beaten to death?”
“Progenitor Ku?”
The nine-headed bird turned and fled. It had chosen to escape from the battle.
Ever since the bird had first mastered sequence particles, it had become practically invincible. Even so, there was one person it had never been able to affect, no matter how it had attacked him. That person had even seemed to enjoy the bird’s attacks, and he had used an ability known as Extremes Must Be Reversed.
The nine-headed bird had encountered that human in a random universe, and it had seen him as just another delicious snack, only to discover that the man was too tough to swallow. If that human had not been practically dead, the bird was certain that it would have never been able to escape. It had been traumatized by that human, and his words had haunted the nine-headed bird ever since that day. “I want to eat roast chicken!”
