Chapter 436 - Destroying the Edict! (1/2)

The battered decree was basked in a dazzling glow on top of the Nether Mountain, exerting a terrifying pressure.

It was a shocker that an edict by the Assembly of Immortals was capable of putting Chu Xun the Devil into such a miserable, injured state.

Even the world fell into silence, let alone Huaxia.

The infamous Chu Xun the Devil had killed countless enemies, stormed into the Western World by himself and caused a ruckus, and suppressed the Lost Races with his power alone.

To think that such a powerful man was helpless against an edict by the Assembly of Immortals! This realization brought on a wave of horror. Just how powerful was the Assembly of Immortals?

Everyone turned to look at Wu Kejin. The orphan of the Assembly of Immortals was able to suppress Chu Xun the Devil thanks to his many Sacred Relics.

That led to another question. Were there other descendants of the Assembly of Immortals on earth?

“Chu Xun the Devil, challenging the Assembly of Immortals means challenging the power of the world. You can’t afford the consequences.” Wu Kejin looked haughty as he mocked Chu Xun.

The wound on Chu Xun’s back was rapidly healing. He looked so indifferent that his brows didn’t even wrinkle.

“It seems that I’ll have to put my life on the line,” he murmured.

Wu Kejin was stunned. Had Chu Xun the Devil been holding back?

“Chu Xun the Devil, it doesn’t matter how many powerful tricks you have. You won’t leave the Nether Mountain alive today.” Wu Kejin’s voice was brimming with contempt.

As soon as he spoke, the battered Edict emitted light beams at Chu Xun. The light beams charged at him quickly and fiercely.

Swoosh!

Chu Xun was faster than the light beams. With a slight shift of his body, he was already several hundred meters away.

Kaboom!

The blood-red light beams continued to bombard Chu Xun. Though he was able to avoid them, the ground under his feet couldn’t and ruptured, sending rocks flying everywhere.

“Chu Xun the Devil, you can hide but you can’t run. You’re going to die today.” Wu Kejin charged at Chu Xun again.

The wound on Chu Xun’s back had mostly healed. The recovery effect of the Eternal Phoenix Scripture and the Hong Meng Scripture was incredible.

Boom!

Chu Xun’s clothes fluttered despite the lack of any wind, rustling in the air, as majestic purple light began to envelop him.

The purple-colored and white-colored Golden Cores inside his Elixir Field were spinning slowly as if they were stirring a vast body of water, turning ripples into tall waves.

Swoosh!

Following a burst of golden light, Dragon’s Wrath appeared in his hand.

“Kill!”

Chu Xun shouted. This time, he went in for the kill instead of avoiding the light beams. He hacked an oncoming beam of blood-red light with his blade.

The Dragon’s Wrath was a majestic sight with its bright golden glow. The phantom of Tao Wu was wandering down the blade with shocking power.

Boom!

An ear-deafening explosion resounded as Chu Xun blew up the blood-red light beam with his blade. The aftershock of the explosion spread violently.

Wu Kejin’s pupils shrunk, shocked that Chu Xun had blown up the Edict’s attack.

Chu Xun turned his blade in his hand and swung it again, blowing up yet another blood-red light beam.

Wu Kejin was staring in a daze but his expression immediately shifted when Chu Xun pounced at him like a meteor.

Before Chu Xun even reached him, layer upon layer of saber radiance was already cutting him down.

Thump! Thump!

Chu Xun’s saber radiance slammed down on Wu Kejin’s protective light cover with an ear-deafening impact. Even though it didn’t shatter Wu Kejin’s cover, the impact was strong enough to turn Wu Kejin’s face white and throw him out.

“Kill!”

Chu Xun pushed the power of the Dragon’s Wrath even further, causing the blade to give off an even brighter light. A saber shadow of more than thirty meters long took shape against a background of crackling noises, bringing with it so much pressure that the air around it became warped.

The enormous golden saber shadow fell hard on Wu Kejin’s body, causing an explosion that sent dirt everywhere and buried the latter within.

Chu Xun withdrew his attention from Wu Kejin and turned around to pounce at the battered Edict.

He swung his saber again, and a golden saber radiance surged. Boom! He blew up another blood-red light beam.

Whirling the sharp edge around, he swung his saber. Yet another blood-red light beam was blown up.

Inside his Elixir Field, his two Golden Pills were spinning increasingly fast to the point of causing a whirlpool.

“Kill!”

Chu Xun bellowed. He leaped upward and chased after the battered Edict in the sky. His Dragon’s Wrath radiated dazzling golden light as he hacked the Edict.

Clang!

Sparks flew everywhere as the deafening sound of metal colliding with metal resounded. The battered Edict shook violently and its white glow began to flicker. Crack! A crack appeared in the Edict and spread until it was about ten centimeters long.

“A scrap of paper dares to try and suppress me,” Chu Xun growled. Purple light appeared under his feet, supporting his body as he descended and made another slash.

Clang!

Sparks flew. The battered Edict continued to shake as yet another crack appeared on its surface.

Everyone watched in shock. What a shocking display of power! Chu Xun the Devil was going berserk!

Clang! Clang!

The purple light under Chu Xun’s feet continued to flicker as it held him firmly in the air, preventing his fall. The radiance of the Dragon’s Wrath in his hand shone upon the ground as he swung his saber again and again.

He was like a bladesmith forging a saber as he slashed the Edict with his Dragon’s Wrath repeatedly and tirelessly.

The white glow of the battered Edict was getting increasingly weak. Its surface was marked by crisscrossed cracks that resembled spiderwebs.

Chu Xun’s eyes were cold and emotionless.

Suddenly, he withdrew the Dragon’s Wrath. Purple light burst forth from his palms as he seized the battered Edict.

“Ahh!”

Chu Xun yelled. Veins were protruding on his arms.

Tsk!

The battered Edict was ripped apart by Chu Xun with the sound akin to a sword cutting through a leaf.

The glow of the battered Edict was extinguished as soon as it was ripped in half. Chu Xun put the halves on top of each other. Tsk! He ripped the halves again.

Tsk! Tsk!

Chu Xun ripped the battered Edict into shreds like it was no more than ordinary paper.

Then, he conjured purple flames in his palms and burned the Edict to ashes.

“Ahh…” Smoke and dust billowed. Wu Kejin was in a sorry state. He couldn’t help but let out an anguished growl after seeing Chu Xun destroy the Edict.
