Chapter 776 - Entering the Arena (2/2)

The most important reason for them to kill Lord of Heaven Yin Shi was not just that.

The most important reason was that without the Lord of Heaven, the Void Alliance would develop more smoothly in the future. There would not be such a large hostile force.

“Senior Wu, what’s wrong? You don’t seem very happy.”

Wu Shi Shui noticed the other party’s slight expression and could not help but ask.

Wu Shi Shui said,

“I’m thinking, what did the Lord of Heaven mean when he said those words before he self-destructed?”

The others also had puzzled expressions. They could not figure out what those last few words meant.

At that time, a Celestial Sovereign could not help but say,

“Could it be that there’s another high-level cultivator behind him? Is that why he said that we will die too?”

“That’s not right.”

Wu Shi Shui immediately retorted.

“What he said just now wasn’t that we would die as well, but that all of us would die. This includes him as well. This means that he might have thought of something at the last moment that would cause all of us to die. Even if he wasn’t killed by us, he might have been killed by another powerful existence.

“It was precisely because of it that he did not choose to escape with the Explosive Blood technique. Instead, he chose to self-destruct.

“Otherwise, with his situation earlier, as long as he chose to escape with the Explosive Blood, there would still be a trace of hope to escape.

“I don’t believe that he would be willing to self-destruct in front of the few of us and not escape.”

“That’s strange. What does he mean exactly?”

“Forget it. Don’t think too much. Maybe he just said it out loud to confuse us and disturb our minds. In this way, if our martial hearts are messed up, we might go crazy when we advance in the future.

“He knows that he has no chance to kill us, so he used this method to set us up.”

“That’s a possibility. Well, since that’s the case, there’s no need to think about it anymore. Take over the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall!”

Just as everyone was about to land and take over the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall, an incident happened.

At that moment, a light suddenly flashed in the distance.

“Not good! There’s an ambush! Retreat quickly!”

Celestial Sovereign Wu was the first to notice the abnormality. He immediately shouted and told everyone to retreat quickly.

However, it was too late!

The speed of the beam of light was so fast that even celestial-level cultivators could not dodge it.

Those who were not in front of the beam of light were lucky enough to escape.

However, the Celestial Sovereign in front of the beam of light was killed on the spot. His body was split in half, and he died.

“D*mn it!”

The other Celestial Sovereigns could not help but break out in cold sweat when they saw that scene.

No one had expected such a situation to happen.

That cultivator who had suddenly appeared seemed to be very powerful. He seemed to be a little more powerful than them.

“Who’s ambushing us?”

As soon as he finished speaking, another beam of light shot over from afar.

“Not good! Quick, defend!”

At that time, everyone was already prepared. When they saw the ray of light approaching, they immediately launched their defenses.

Boom!

The ray of light ruthlessly bombarded one of them.

In just a split second, it directly shattered his defensive barrier and sent him flying.

Splat!

He could not help but spit out a mouthful of blood. The bones in his chest were all broken, and a huge pit appeared on his chest.

However, before he could take a breath, a figure that he had never seen before suddenly appeared in front of him.

That figure had just arrived in front of him when he raised his hand and swung his sword.

The sword light flew up, and fresh blood splattered everywhere. His head spun in the air, and his life came to a complete end.

Until the moment of his death, he could not believe that he had been killed by someone even though he had already put all his strength into defense.

Moreover, the other party had only used two moves!

Two moves!

It was simply inconceivable.

At that moment, he even suspected that his Celestial Sovereign-level cultivation base was fake.

Perhaps, the other party’s strength had already reached that legendary Supreme Sovereign realm?

However, he did not have the chance to think about it in detail in the past because his consciousness had already sunk into darkness.

The remaining Celestial Sovereigns looked at that figure with fear and trepidation.

If his first attack was a sneak attack, they had not noticed it, which was why they had lost a companion. It was understandable.

Yet at that time, it was a direct confrontation.

Moreover, even if it was a direct confrontation, he still succeeded. Killing a Celestial Sovereign in two moves, one could imagine how powerful his cultivation base was.

“Who are you? I don’t think our Void Alliance has ever provoked you, right?”

Celestial Sovereign Wu suppressed the fear in his heart and could not help but ask.

The other party slowly turned his head.

“Dead people don’t need to know too much.”

As he spoke, he used the weapon in his hand to draw a sword. A dragon’s roar instantly sounded in the air, reverberating billions of miles away!

That was the dragon’s voice!

So the person who came was none other than Ye Xiao.

“What an arrogant fellow! To actually be even more arrogant than the Lord of Heaven! Although your strength is commendable, we have so many people here. You can’t possibly kill all of us, right?

“One should still keep a low profile.”

Ye Xiao gave a disdainful smile and headed straight for the other party’s door.

“Trash. No matter how many there are, it’s still the same. There’s no meaning to it.”

He stomped his foot and the power on his body burst forth. His aura was unstoppable and intimidated the other party. It was so oppressive that he could not even catch his breath!

However, the other Celestial Sovereigns were not idle either.

The moment Ye Xiao made his move, they also launched an attack at the same time.

The cultivators of the Void Alliance were all together. Their interests were one, so they would help each other. They would not allow others to kill their companions.

Since the other party had several people attacking at the same time, the power was extremely strong. Ye Xiao had no choice but to fight against them first.

That way, the fellow in front of him could be considered lucky to obtain a sliver of breathing space.

Bang!

Ye Xiao’s and the others’ attacks collided, causing a violent explosion.

The powerful shock wave deterred even a Celestial Sovereign and forced them to retreat.

However, that Celestial Sovereign sneered and said,

“I gave you a chance, but you didn’t cherish it properly. You had to court death! At that time, there were so many of us, yet you still wanted to kill me. You’re simply wishful thinking, you don’t know death!”
