Chapter 1440 God Annihilation Curse Poison (1/2)

The Sacred God’s huge face dissipated from the world and all Saints’ hearts sank. They all heard what the Sacred God said.

The third god seemed to be wounded.

Zhou Yuan immediately appeared next to Yaoyao and he reached for her snow-white hand. Seeing the black poisonous mark squirming and expanding in his palm, his face darkened.

The poisonous mark was no wider than a finger but the ominous and poisonous qi it emitted made people dared not to touch it.

Cang Yuan and the others also appeared beside Zhou Yuan, studying the poisonous mark. They were all terror-stricken because they knew they would instantly be reduced to a pool of black blood if the poisonous qi penetrated their bodies. Any foundation was extremely weak in front of the poisonous qi.

“What terrifying poison,” remarked Cang Yuan, scrunching his brows in a frown.

“Is this the Sacred Race’s ultimate goal of dispatching so many people this time?” Another double-lotus Saint said through gritted teeth.

Now that the Sacred God’s incarnate had vanished and the Sacred Race’s plan was completely exposed, it was clear that everything was targeted at the third god.

In a sense, even if the Sacred Race had sacrificed two prime Saints, the Sacred Race had indeed achieved their ultimate goal.

Zhou Yuan gazed at Yaoyao's fair and stunning face. Even though a mysterious poison that could threaten her divinity had invaded her body, her face was still calm as always.

Zhou Yuan bit his lips and didn’t say anything, but his eyes were filled with self-blame.

The Sacred Race’s ultimate goal was directed at Yaoyao but Zhou Yuan was a burden to her whether it was when the Sacred Race tried to force Yaoyao out or when the Sacred God inflicted her with poison.

He originally thought that he could change things after reaching the Saint stage and becoming the Heaven Master of Cangxuan Heaven. But he finally understood how cruel reality was. He might be considered an expert at the pinnacle of the Tianyuan World, but so what? In a battle of that level, he was only seen as a huge flaw to attack Yaoyao.

The trace of pride and satisfaction he felt after being promoted to the position of Heaven Master now seemed particularly ridiculous and funny.

While Zhou Yuan was blaming himself, Yaoyao gripped Zhou Yuan’s hand. That cold but delicate feeling was like touching a jade stone.

Zhou Yuan lifted his head to see Yaoyao gazing at him with a rare gentleness and shaking her head.

“Don't deny your achievement. If even you don’t have confidence, the Saints of all-heavens should be so ashamed that they burn their own Saint lotus,” said Yaoyao in a soft voice.

The other Saints' faces twitched when they heard that, but they couldn’t refute because Yaoyao was indeed right. Zhao Yuan had reached the Saint stage and was in charge of Cangxuan Heaven. Therefore, even veteran double-lotus Saints wouldn’t have much of an advantage in a fight against Zhou Yuan in Cangxuan Heaven.

They had cultivated hundreds of times longer than Zhou Yuan had, but Zhou Yuan had caught up to them all. Everyone had to marvel at his talent and potential.

A monster like him would likely achieve the title prime sovereign earlier than his master Cang Yuan.

Zhou Yuan seemed inferior in this battle, but that was only because of the level of the opponents that appeared, such as an incarnate of the Sacred God. Even the three prime sovereigns from the Omega Shrine likely wouldn’t have much advantage in that battle.

Besides the Sacred God’s incarnate, Mo Jie and Hei Zhao were also fierce and well-known characters. In the face of opponents like them, even veteran double-lotus saints like them would have to rely on the number of people and the Ancestral Dragon Lantern to be able to compete.

Zhou Yuan clasped Yaoyao’s little hand silently for a good while. He soon settled his emotions because he understood that those emotions were pointless.

At that moment, the surrounding space suddenly distorted and crumbled and three figures emitting extremely oppressive pressure landed in front of Zhou Yuan and the others.
