Chapter 1258: Double Bloodlines (1/2)
“Almighty grand monarch!” the Saint domain disciples of the Extreme Coldness Palace cheered simultaneously.
Lu Qingchen let out a sigh of relief as he hastily retreated to a far corner of the Frigid Depths, where he attempted to rebuild his Frigid Ice Divine Kingdom with the Frigid Depths’ cold aura.
Neither Nie Tian, Yu Suying, nor anyone had paid any attention to Lu Qingchen or the other Extreme Coldness Palace Qi warriors from the moment Grand Monarch Ice Bones had risen from his glacier throne.
In their eyes, the Extreme Coldness Palace wasn’t to be feared at all.
Lu Qingchen, however, found this to be a favorable situation. He told the experts of his sect to distance themselves from the battlefield to recover their strength and also give room to Grand Monarch Ice Bones, so that he could go fight Yu Suying and the others without being hindered.
He understood better than anyone how formidable this Bonebrute grand monarch was.
“You think you can take my prisoner away with just the few of you?” Grand Monarch Ice Bones’ voice rumbled out, his enormous crystalline body floating in the void.
The Annihilation Bone Spear exuded an aura that rapidly spread into the surrounding starry river.
WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
One realm after another that were countless kilometers away were influenced by its aura.
In one of the realms, numerous dead bodies that had lain in desolate cemeteries for countless years were channeled. Death auras gradually rose from them and floated into the starry river.
The same thing happened in many other realms.
In any realm where a large number of corpses existed, wisps of death power were channeled away.
Bonebrutes usually strengthened their bloodlines and perfected their uncanny secret death magics with the help of their unique burial grounds.
The remains of all living beings, including humans, outsiders, and Ancientbeasts, would exude death power after their demise.
To Bonebrutes, not only humans but all beings with flesh and blood would become their cultivation resources once they died.
Therefore, even among the outsiders, they were considered “outsiders.”
If possible, Demons, Phantasms, Fiends, Floragrims, and all of the other outsider races would avoid contact with them, as they all found the Bonebrutes repulsive.
In many realms, Qi warriors that practiced cold power gazed up at the rising death auras and exclaimed in fear.
“Death auras!”
“Faint power is rising from the dead into the heavens. What is it being attracted to?”
Grand Monarch Ice Bones slowly lifted the bone spear in his hand. “Annihilation...”
As soon as he did, extremely rich death auras hovered around the bone spear, morphing into dozens of profound death talismans, as if in this way, he was declaring that death was the home that all would return to eventually.
The Annihilation Bone Spear was pointed at Yu Suying.
Yu Suying, who was at the early God domain and protected by countless rays of Heaven-purging Divine Light, watched the pale-gray auras wreathing the Annihilation Bone Spear morph and manifest the profound truths of death.
Simply by doing this, her bright eyes grew dim, as if she were slowly losing her life power.
FZZZ! FIZZ! FIZZ!
Her Heaven-purging Divine Light flickered, giving rise to strange sounds, as if it was receiving repeated blows from the profound truths of death.
WHOOSH!
In another location, the murky frigid current that was mixed with ice shards, which Grand Monarch Ice Bones had extracted from the Frigid Depths, shot towards Mo Qianfan.
Slammed by the frigid current, Mo Qianfan’s dharma idol let out crispy crackling sounds, as if it were being frozen.
Mo Qianfan had to bring out his mightiest lightning power and bombard himself with lightning balls the size of fists.
He was too busy handling his situation to do anything else.
Nie Tian, however, wasn’t attacked again after his Star Behemoth bone had suffered a heavy blow from Grand Monarch Ice Bones.
Perhaps in Grand Monarch Ice Bones’ eyes, both his current cultivation base and bloodline grade were far too low.
Once he was finished with Yu Suying, Mo Qianfan, and Yin Xingtian, he would be able to capture and kill him wherever he fled, as long as he remained in the Domain of Frigid Depths.
Observing the battle, Nie Tian thought to himself with a grim face, “Grand Monarch Ice Bones carries such a curious bloodline. His death bloodline seems to contain the mysteries of cold power.”
He had met some Demon, Phantasm, and Fiend grand monarchs in the Shatter Battlefield. He had even met mighty titans.
However, now that he thought about it, he realized that this Grand Monarch Ice Bones before him might actually be stronger than any of the outsider grand monarchs he had ever met.
“Is it because his death bloodline also contains the profound truths of coldness? If that’s the case, then he must carry two bloodlines at the same time, death and cold!”
Nie Tian’s eyes suddenly lit up. “Double bloodlines?!”
All of a sudden, a subtle, undetectable divine will quietly entered the third fragmentary star mark in Nie Tian’s chest.
The third fragmentary star mark, which he hadn’t had a chance to study, recorded the method of domain building.
He knew nothing of the wonders this fragmentary star mark held. For one thing, his cultivation base had been far too low. For another, he had been otherwise occupied, and thus hadn’t had time to study it.
The fact that it somehow received divine will now came as a great surprise to him.
He pondered briefly before quickly summoning a wisp of power from his star souls, vesting it with his soul awareness, and using it to examine the divine will in his third fragmentary star mark.
“This is Chu Rui. I secretly left a wisp of my divine will here before I was imprisoned...”
Nie Tian’s expression flickered with astonishment as he discovered that the divine will belonged to Vice Sectmaster Chu, who had been trapped in the Frigid Depths.
