Chapter 1021: A Grand Monarch and A God Domain Exper (2/2)
“I’ll deal with Mo Heng myself,” Grand Monarch Withered Bones said, “Bone Crusher, you go search for those three human chosen ones who escaped from realm number nine. The Domain of Nether Heaven is sealed now. Even God domain experts from the Void Spirit Society won’t be able to teleport here directly. If they want to get in here, they’ll have to rely on ancient starships. That means we’ll have enough time to finish our job before the humans’ joint forces arrive.
“Remember: our primary targets are the three God domain experts. After them are the Sons of the Stars, Divine Children, and other chosen ones from the great sects.
“If we can finish them all off, the humans’ vital strength will be greatly undermined. It may take them ten thousand years to recover.”
Grand Patriarch Bone Crusher nodded. “I’m on it!”
The ancient starship he was on then sailed out of the battle zone into the distant starry river.
After he and Pergson vanished into the distance, Grand Monarch Withered Bones, who was one of the Bonebrutes’ three grand monarchs, finally steered his bone altar towards Mo Heng’s dharma idol, bringing endless death power.
Outsider grand monarchs and God domain human experts were beings at the top of the pyramid in this starry river. Now, a battle between two of them broke out officially.
The area of starry river outside realm number nine was instantly drowned by countless rays of blinding pale-gray light and dazzling spiritual light.
The clash of the two peak beings’ power instantly blasted the cracking realm number nine to countless pieces that flew in every direction.
As soon as the two of them engaged in battle, all of the ancient starships backed out of the area like shoals of fish that had sensed danger.
Within a very short time, not a single ancient starship was anywhere close to Grand Monarch Withered Bones or Mo Heng’s dharma idol, as if they had some mutual understanding.
Even though Nie Tian, Pei Qiqi, and Huang Jinnan were observing from an extremely long distance away, they felt an overwhelming pressure.
It was as if just by observing the battle between Grand Monarch Withered Bones and Mo Heng’s dharma idol, they were consuming their vital energies at an alarming rate. Their hearts pounded so fast that it felt like they were going to explode.
PUFF! Huang Jinnan coughed up a mouthful of blood. His face grew even paler than Pei Qiqi’s as he said, “We’re not even strong enough to observe a battle at their level. Every clash of their flesh aura and spiritual power contains the profound mysteries of heaven and earth and bloodline secrets.
“Just by watching them, we risk being consumed by them and losing our minds.”
Pei Qiqi sighed softly and forced herself to close her eyes. “That’s true.”
A wisp of blood came out of the corner of her mouth, but she didn’t seem to notice it.
A shudder ran through Nie Tian as he also snapped out of his daze.
Only then did he realize that he had already lost a significant amount of soul power observing the battle between Grand Monarch Withered Bones and Mo Heng’s dharma idol.
Even his flesh power flow had become chaotic, as if Grand Monarch Withered Bones’ magical law of death had somehow infiltrated his body.
However, only after seeing Pei Qiqi and Huang Jinnan did he realize that the two of them had suffered even heavier injuries than he had.
“What should we do now?” Huang Jinnan asked with a bitter face.
Pei Qiqi pondered in silence for a few seconds before saying, “We’re still too close to Grand Monarch Withered Bones. Just now, I saw one of the Bonebrutes’ ancient starships sailing away from the battle zone. If my speculation is correct, it must be coming for us. The Bonebrutes must know that even though we escaped from realm number nine, we couldn’t have gone very far due to the profound effect of the Heaven Freezing Spell.
“If it was Grand Patriarch Bone Crusher that came looking for us, we’re in trouble. He’ll be able to sense our auras once we enter his exceptionally large detection range.
“After he locates us, a large number of Bonebrutes will swarm in on us.”
Nie Tian then asked, “So you’re saying...?”
“We need to get as far away from realm number nine as we can,” Pei Qiqi said with determination. “We also need to steer clear of the other realms. I assume Sikong Cuo, Fang Yuan, and Lou Hongyan are experiencing the same thing we are. And since I’ve already lost contact with Senior Ji from my sect, seeking his help isn’t an option.”
Huang Jinnan hastily chimed in, “Realm number nine has fallen apart. Some of my subordinates must have seized the opportunity to escape. Should we try to find them?”
Pei Qiqi sighed. “I’ve consumed too much power getting us out of realm number nine. I won’t be able to use Void Travel again within a short time. Now, the Domain of Nether Heaven has become a giant cage. It’s difficult to enter, leave, or travel within it. So first, we don’t know where they are. Second, even if we do, I won’t be able to take you to them.”
“Well...” Huang Jinnan said with a deep frown.
“Our best choice is to hole up in one of the numerous dead realms in the Domain of Nether Heaven. They won’t search the dead realms first. And I doubt that the Nether Spirit Society, the Death Curse Sect, and the outsiders have deployed any troops in those dead realms.” Pei Qiqi brought out her plan.
Nie Tian nodded.
Huang Jinnan pondered in silence for a few seconds and then also nodded, though somewhat reluctantly.
