EBE Chapter 1604 Slaying
Chapter 1604 Slaying
Song Yu stood with his sword in hand, his aura growing increasingly heavy, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. His gaze towards Di Xuan was indifferent; his earlier mockery had already shattered Di Xuan's spirit.
Di Xuan felt a surge of anger in his chest, yet he was helpless.
After two head-on clashes, he clearly realized that, despite both being at the late stage of the Eternal Realm, the difference in combat power between himself and Song Yu was enormous.
But he was burdened with the orders of the Lord of Shadow Prison, and he couldn't let go of his pride as a late-stage Eternal Realm cultivator, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and fight back: "Don't be so arrogant, today I'll show you my true abilities!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the eternal power and the power of darkness around Di Xuan completely merged, transforming into a boundless, pitch-black demonic sea. Countless black tentacles danced wildly within the demonic sea, each tentacle carrying the power to tear apart stars, and coiled towards Song Yu.
At the same time, dozens of phantoms identical to him emerged from the depths of the Demon Sea. The phantoms unleashed their palms simultaneously, and countless dark palm prints rained down on Song Yu, making it difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion. Their attacks were extremely fierce.
Song Yu's eyes were calm as he wielded the Eternal Sword, slashing horizontally and vertically. Golden sword energy burst forth continuously, each strike severing several dark tentacles and splitting open several palm prints.
He moved nimbly, shuttling between the demonic sea and the phantoms. He appeared to be passively defending, but in reality, every movement he made concealed a secret. Tiny array runes quietly condensed at his fingertips, and under the cover of energy collisions, he imprinted the runes in various places in the void.
These runes were extremely well hidden, blending seamlessly with the surrounding chaotic energy. They were impossible to detect without careful examination. As Song Yu continued to move, the runes gradually connected, faintly outlining the contours of the formation.
Di Xuan was completely unaware of Song Yu's scheme, thinking that Song Yu was only trying to deal with his attack. Seeing this, he became more and more anxious, constantly urging his internal energy. His demonic sea surged more and more violently, and the attacks of the phantoms became more and more intense, trying to suppress Song Yu.
No matter how hard he tried, Song Yu could always calmly deflect the attacks, and even occasionally launch a counterattack, forcing him to dodge repeatedly. Several sword wounds gradually appeared on his body, and blood dripped down from the wounds, turning into droplets of blood in the void, which were quickly swallowed by the demonic sea.
On the other side, the Evil Emperor and the Demon Emperor were locked in a fierce battle with the Lord of Youluo and his three companions.
Purple sword energy crisscrossed around the Evil Emperor. As he wielded his longsword, countless sword energies condensed into a rain of sword energy, pouring down on Lord Youluo and Lord Fentian. The sword energy was incomparably sharp, and wherever it passed, fragments of stars were shattered into dust!
The Lord of Youluo was enveloped in a pale purple mist, within which countless illusory figures emerged, constantly resisting the sword energy's onslaught. At the same time, he manipulated the mist into threads, attempting to entangle the Evil Emperor's limbs and disrupt his attacks! The Lord of Burning Heaven was engulfed in raging flames, transforming into a gigantic fire dragon. The fire dragon opened its mouth and spewed forth monstrous flames, colliding with the Evil Emperor's sword energy. Firelight and sword energy intertwined, and terrifying energy shockwaves continued to spread, making the surrounding void increasingly chaotic.
On the Demon Emperor's side, his demonic energy surged to the heavens, condensing into countless ferocious demonic shadows that rushed towards the Bone-Eating Lord and the Soul-Devouring Lord.
The Corrosive Lord's body surged with dark green corrosive power, corroding the void with black holes wherever he went. He manipulated the corrosive power to turn it into poisonous mist, attempting to erode the Demon Emperor's demonic energy barrier!
The Soul Devourer remained silent, while countless phantom souls howled and roared within the black mist surrounding him. These phantoms lunged at the Demon Emperor, attempting to burrow into his body and devour his soul.
The Demon Emperor snorted coldly, his demonic energy surging, shattering the poisonous mist and the phantom of the soul. At the same time, he raised his hand and unleashed several demonic palms, striking towards the two. The attack was swift and domineering, forcing the two to retreat repeatedly, their auras gradually weakening.
The four members of the Youluo Lord were becoming increasingly anxious. They would glance at the battlefield between Song Yu and Di Xuan from time to time. Seeing that Di Xuan was unable to defeat Song Yu and was gradually falling into a disadvantageous position, their expressions became more and more solemn.
They knew that although the four of them working together could temporarily restrain the Evil Emperor and the Demon Emperor, it was only a weak effort. Once Emperor Xuan was defeated, they would be no match for the Evil Emperor and the Demon Emperor, and their lives would be in grave danger.
Lord Burning Heaven couldn't help but roar, "Lord Emperor Xuan, quickly deal with Song Yu! We can't hold on much longer!"
Upon hearing this, Di Xuan became even more anxious, but the more anxious he became, the more flaws he made. Song Yu seized the opportunity and slashed his shoulder with his sword, the cut so deep that the bone was visible.
A sharp pain shot through him, causing Di Xuan to freeze in place. Taking advantage of this, Song Yu closed in, his sword strikes suddenly becoming fierce, golden sword shadows weaving into a net that blocked his retreat.
Di Xuan frantically tried to defend himself, gathering an energy shield in his hand, but it was shattered by the Eternal Sword. The sword was aimed directly at his vital heart, which startled him so much that he quickly dodged to the side, barely avoiding the attack, but he was still hit by the sword wind and injured again.
At this moment, the formation that Song Yu had secretly set up had taken shape.
A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and his fingertips quietly formed a hand seal. The hidden runes in the void suddenly lit up, and golden light intertwined to form a huge net of light, completely enveloping him and Di Xuan within it.
The moment the formation was activated, a powerful binding force swept out, completely freezing the surrounding void. Di Xuan felt a sudden heaviness all over his body, and the circulation of energy within his body became sluggish. His face instantly showed astonishment: "This is... a formation? You actually set up a formation in secret!"
Song Yu's lips curled into a cold smile. He no longer concealed his strength, and his aura suddenly surged. The golden and black energies erupted, and the Eternal Sword shone brightly. Complex patterns appeared on the sword's surface, and a world-destroying pressure swept out: "I was just toying with you before. Now that the formation is complete, you can't escape!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Yu flashed and instantly appeared in front of Di Xuan. The Eternal Sword thrust out with extreme speed, aiming straight for Di Xuan's heart.
Di Xuan's face turned deathly pale. His internal energy circulation was obstructed, making it impossible for him to defend himself in time. He could only turn to the side hastily, but the blade still pierced his left shoulder, going right through it, and blood gushed down the blade.
The excruciating pain made Di Xuan tremble all over, his eyes filled with fear. He finally realized that he was no match for Song Yu at all, and didn't even have a chance to fight back.
"No! I'm not reconciled!"
Di Xuan roared, mustered all his strength, and concentrated all the remaining energy in his body into his fists, blasting them towards Song Yu in a final struggle.
Song Yu's eyes were indifferent as he dodged to the side, simultaneously severing Di Xuan's right arm with a backhand sword strike. Blood gushed out, and Di Xuan screamed as he flew backward, crashing heavily into the array's light barrier. He was then bounced back and collapsed in the void, his aura extremely weak, completely losing his fighting ability.
He looked at Song Yu slowly approaching, his eyes filled with despair. His survival instinct made him abandon all dignity, and he hurriedly begged for mercy: "Human Emperor, spare my life! I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have obeyed the Shadow Prison Lord's orders to attack the Peerless Universe. As long as you spare my life, I am willing to submit to you, serve you, and even tell you the secrets of the Shadow Prison Lord!"
Di Xuan begged for mercy while kowtowing repeatedly, his posture extremely humble!
But Song Yu's eyes were cold, and he remained unmoved!
"You colluded with the Lord of Shadow Prison, harming countless lives. Today you have come to destroy Wushuang, so you should be prepared to die."
As soon as Song Yu finished speaking, he held the Eternal Sword, leaped up, and slashed down at Di Xuan.
Golden sword energy suddenly erupted, instantly splitting Di Xuan's body in two. The power of eternity instantly annihilated his soul, and a powerful late-stage Eternal Realm expert fell.
Di Xuan's remains and energy were quickly swallowed up by the formation and completely dissipated into nothingness.
After dealing with Di Xuan, Song Yu waved his hand, and the array light screen dissipated. He turned to look at the battlefield between the Evil Emperor and the Demon Emperor.
At this moment, the four members of the Netherworld Lord were already in dire straits. The Evil Emperor and the Demon Emperor no longer held back, and their attacks became increasingly fierce. The Burning Heaven Lord and the Soul Devouring Lord were already seriously injured and on the verge of death. The Netherworld Lord and the Bone-Eating Lord were also gradually unable to hold on, their faces filled with despair.
But just as Song Yu approached, a ruthless glint flashed in the eyes of the Lord of the Netherworld, and he suddenly shouted, "Attack!"
As soon as they finished speaking, the four of them simultaneously took out a black token. The moment the token shattered, a strange black energy enveloped their bodies, and they silently chanted obscure incantations, causing the surrounding space to distort violently.
Upon seeing this, the Evil Emperor and the Demon Emperor's expressions changed, and they immediately unleashed their full power, simultaneously striking the four with sword energy and demonic palms in an attempt to stop them.
However, the black energy formed a solid barrier that actually blocked the two's attack. When the energy shockwave dissipated, the four figures had disappeared from the spot, leaving only a distorted void and faint energy residue.
"Oh no, they escaped using a secret technique!"
The Evil Emperor frowned, his eyes filled with annoyance. They had only been focused on suppressing the four people and had not expected that they would have a backup plan.
The Demon Emperor's demonic energy surged, and he coldly snorted: "These four are all half-step into Eternity, and they also know the movements of the Lord of Shadow Prison. Their escape today will surely bring even greater disaster in the future."
Song Yu landed slowly, looking in the direction where the four had disappeared. A cold glint flashed in his eyes, but he didn't pay much attention to it.
He knew that although the Lord of Youluo and his three companions had escaped, they were seriously injured and would not be able to cause trouble again in the short term. He also knew that the Lord of Shadow Prison would be even more furious when he learned of Emperor Xuan's death!
"It's alright. Today, by killing Di Xuan, we have also severed one of the Shadow Prison Lord's arms. Next, we only need to strengthen the defense of the Peerless Universe, improve our own strength, and wait for the arrival of the Shadow Prison Lord."
The Evil Emperor and the Demon Emperor nodded in agreement, withdrew their attacks, and came to Song Yu's side.
The chaotic void around them gradually calmed down, and shattered star fragments floated in the universe. This great battle, which concerned the survival of the peerless universe, finally ended with Song Yu killing Di Xuan, Youluo Zhu, and the other three and escaping.
Song Yu looked up toward the direction of the bright universe, a sharp glint in his eyes.
He knew this was just the beginning.
The three of them moved, transforming into three streaks of light, and flew towards the Peerless Realm.
……
The four who escaped from Youluo are now hiding in a remote corner of the universe, covered in wounds, weak and exhausted, their faces filled with fear and resentment.
"I never expected Song Yu to be so powerful. Even Emperor Xuan was no match for him." The Burning Heaven Lord clutched the wound on his chest, his voice trembling.
The Lord of Youluo's face was gloomy, and the dark mist around him was dim. He gritted his teeth and said, "The humiliation of today will be avenged in the future. We must quickly return to the Bright Universe and report this matter to the Lord, so that the Lord can personally take action to destroy the Peerless Great Universe and kill Song Yu!"
