Chapter 1410 The Vicious Sheng Yuan (1/2)

The sight of the dimming and wilting Saint lotus bud stupefied the countless onlookers in Cangxuan Heaven, who were also clearly both alarmed and frightened by this development.

In the sky, Zhou Yuan was not overly surprised by this outcome. It had been too negligent of Sheng Yuan to expose his Saint lotus bud. Sheng Yuan had really looked down on Zhou Yuan’s many years of battle experience if he failed to consider that Zhou Yuan would fail to grasp such a chance.

With the Saint lotus bud now sealed, Sheng Yuan was now much weaker than before. It was the best time to take advantage of him in this vulnerable state.

Hence, Zhou Yuan did not hesitate in the slightest. With a thunderous dragon roar, space shattered under his foot as he pounced towards Sheng Yuan.

Sheng Yuan was immediately alerted to Zhou Yuan’s movement, causing his expression to turn ashen as he quickly waved his sleeve. Space warped around him and swiftly swallowed his body.

He naturally understood Zhou Yuan’s intention, but no longer dared to clash directly with Zhou Yuan in his current condition. His priority was to find an opportunity to undo the seal on his Saint lotus bud.

“Where are you going?!”

However, Sheng Yuan’s plan did not work out. An icy chuckle sounded from above as a certain spot nearby suddenly shattered, revealing a night-black brush tip that swung towards him with power that could scatter stars.

Thump!

Space shattered and a figure was thrown out. Who else could it be but Sheng Yuan, who had tried to hide inside of space itself.

Sheng Yuan sternly shouted, “Zhou Yuan, don’t push me!”

However, the laughable threat was completely ignored by Zhou Yuan. In the next instant, millions of Genesis Qi torrents fell from the sky, transforming into giant Genesis Qi dragons that swarmed towards Sheng Yuan from every direction.

Sheng Yuan’s expression darkened as he continuously flicked all ten fingers. Every flick sent out a dot of light that rapidly grew into red scissors as they shot through the air. Different beast runes blossomed from each pair of scissors, accompanied by countless howls.

The many scissors gave off unimaginably sharp auras, easily cutting through even the fabric of space.

“Thousand Beast Flame Scissors!”

Countless glowing red scissors collided with the Genesis Qi dragons.

Boom boom!

Terrifying explosions occured one after another, each accompanied by a thunderous boom.

However, anyone could see that the red scissors were disappearing one by one. Sheng Yuan was clearly much weaker after his Saint lotus bud was sealed.

“Blasted!” Sheng Yuan’s nails dug into his palm as his expression turned frighteningly dark. To think a mighty half-Saint like him, the strongest expert in Cangxuan Heaven, was being forced into such a miserable state by Zhou Yuan.

Sheng Yuan’s eyes rapidly flickered in thought as he growled to himself in a low voice, “No, this cannot continue. I need to think of a way to break the seal!”

However, he had already tried to unravel the seal earlier, but it was extremely sturdy. Even he found himself unable to undo it for the time being.

Ordinary methods were clearly not going to work.

“Do I really have no choice?” Sheng Yuan was silent for a second before a resolute look flashed in his eyes.

Bang!

The space above Sheng Yuan suddenly shattered as an enormous purple-gold dragon fist reached out with deadly killing intent and power that could smash apart stars.

The attack was so swift that it was nearly impossible to avoid.

Sheng Yuan’s expression darkened even more, but made no move to avoid the attack, allowing it to descend towards him. He seemed to have no intention of avoiding it.

Boom boom!

Space exploded along with Sheng Yuan’s body as the sky was dyed blood-red. A rain of blood fell, sprinkling towards the land below.

Countless life forms in Cangxuan Heaven watched this scene in shock, everyone falling deathly silent for a time.

The very same Sheng Yuan, who had brought endless chaos and war to Cangxuan Heaven, had just been killed?

The silence was soon broken by booming mountain-shaking cheers.

Zhou Yuan’s figure appeared in the sky, gazing at the spot where Sheng Yuan’s body had been smashed into pulp. However, there were no signs of joy on his face as his brows furrowed together.

He had sensed a faint, peculiar undulation spread from Sheng Yuan’s body a split second before impact.

Palace master Sheng Yuan was not dead yet.

The Decoder Saint Rune began to revolve in Zhou Yuan’s pupils as he carefully scanned the falling blood. In the next instant, he sensed a pulse of Genesis Qi from the viscous Sacred Blood Reservoir below.

He stared hard at the spot as the blood-water began to converge, gradually turning into the shape of a human.

It was Sheng Yuan.

Sheng Yuan raised his head to meet Zhou Yuan’s gaze and chillingly said, “Do you really believe it is so easy to kill a half-Saint? Naive fool!”

Although he had not been killed, his pale face indicated that he had paid a painful price to avoid death.

The cheering came to an abrupt halt as disappointment filled everyone’s faces.

Zhou Yuan, however, was still very calm. “How many more times can you escape in that condition?”

Sheng Yuan was silent for a moment before he replied, “Zhou Yuan, if you manage to reach the Saint stage, even Cang Xuan will not be able to compare to you.”
