Chapter 2103 - Son of Darkness, The Dying Prodigy (2/2)

When Zhang Ruochen was thinking, Son of Darkness suddenly looked up On his wrinkled face, his pair of eyes slowly opened He looked straight at where the tere standing

“We are busted He is highly vigilant despite his fragile state” A hint of surprise flashed in the Maiden of a Thousand Stars’ eyes

Now that their presence was known, Zhang Ruochen and the Maiden of a Thousand Stars no longer hid They continuedforward

Finally, they stopped 100 feet away from Son of Darkness

Son of Darkness’ eyes were caler reh vicissitudes in the world

He stared at Zhang Ruochen and the Maiden of a Thousand Stars without any hostility It was as if he was looking at two ordinary mortals He spoke dully, “I didn’t expect to meet you at the end of my life Perhaps this is the wondrous of life We never knohat’s co Ruochen snorted, “Infernal Court always seeks destruction, longing for the death of the entire universe Don’t you think it’s ironic for you to talk about ‘life’?”

Son of Darkness was a proud scion who rarely deeive a dle word to the Ruochen was apparently an outstanding cultivator Therefore, he considered Zhang Ruochen qualified enough to talk to him or, more precisely, discuss Dao with him—the Dao of the end of life

Son of Darkness’ withered face did not have the luster a young cultivator should have in the slightest Yet, he forced a ss in Celestial Court? Aren’t there any beings in Celestial Court who pursue death and destruction? If so, why can’t someone from Infernal Court pursue life?”

“If you pursue life, why did you co Ruochen asked

Son of Darkness said, “What I’ve been seeking is endless evolution of life to achieve transcendence, sainthood, and even Godhood The fight between Celestial Court and Infernal Court is h in cultivation, so I can go further on my path as a powerful cultivator”

“Kunlun is different from ordinary iven rise to countless ures born in its history—Lord Wentian of the Ten Tribulations, Saint Monk Xu and many more All of them were the altitude of life I yearn for Hence, Imy Dao ”

As soon as Son of Darkness finished his words, his eyes shone with a brilliant luster

At this h vicissitudes of life It was as if he had let go of everything—conflicts, interests, Celestial Court, and Infernal Court—and beco else but a cultivator

“What a pity Your life is about to coer have the chance to pursue anything Fate always plays tricks on people”

As far as she knew, Son of Darkness had never appeared on any Battlefield of Merits He had always stayed at Infernal Court to self-cultivate, so lected his existence Perhaps, he was indeed devoted to the Dao

However, whether he was right or not, it didn’t really matter because his life was about to end

Son of Darkness said, “I never believe in fate Never have I been to the Fane of Destiny worshi+pped by all cultivators in Infernal Court

“In fact, every course of events is man-made From the moment a cultivator e destiny The weak are at thecontrol fate I h”

His words struck Zhang Ruochen Many cultivators had lofty aspirations They believed that their fate was in their hands Nevertheless, how many of them could really hold onto this belief?

When they were in a desperate situation, most people would choose to accept their fate They did not have the courage to fight anymore

Suddenly, the space shook violently An extre Ruochen, the Maiden of a Thousand Stars and Son of Darkness

Zhang Ruochen and the Maiden of a Thousand Stars looked up Their eyes turned gri chaos to the ti Ruochen could also summon the shadow of River of Time, but its poas far inferior to this one

Just as they were about to attack, they saw Son of Darkness extend his withered arers He quickly drew ht spots i grandpeople feel like they were really in the universe

Then, these light spots revolved like galaxy, causing the entire ti River of Time was distorted It shi+fted its direction and didn’t charge at Zhang Ruochen and the other two It quickly disappeared into the darkness

After doing this, Son of Darkness’ body became even more withered, and his aura was extre Ruochen’s eyes He gave Son of Darkness a long gaze ‘He could perform such a countermove It seemed that he knew the tricks of the ood This monster has many tricks up its sleeves If we can’t find a way out quickly, we et refined in the end” Maiden of a Thousand Stars’ expression became solemn

Son of Darkness said, “This h it can give us a quick death, it deliberately choose not to do so It wants to torture us slowly and let us die in despair and fear But this will give us a chance to escape”

“Chance to escape?” Zhang Ruochen asked

Son of Darkness said, “Everyone has a weakness I believe thisas we find its weakness, we ht be able to escape”

“Its weakness?” The Maiden of a Thousand Stars was deep in her thought

They were currently in the s that they could not figure out Therefore, even if the ht not be able to identify it

Son of Darkness said, “This monster is formed from the combination of four types of divine forces It is completely different froone a mutation Perhaps it can be considered as a real life form”

The eyes of the Maiden of a Thousand Stars suddenly lit up, and she said, “These four kinds of divine forces are very powerful Moreover, they belonged to different deities So, it is challenging to combine them perfectly Perhaps, it is not even possible to do so Hence, I think this monster has only kept the four kinds of divine forces in a balance instead of co them

“If we can break this balance, we et a chance to escape”

Upon hearing her words, Zhang Ruochen had a deep thought for a moment He said, “This may indeed be the monster’s weakness, but how can we break the balance between the divine forces?”

It’s not enough to merely identify the weakness The key was to think of a feasible way

“I have vaguely seen a very special divine-force vortex at the top of this space It showed four different colors The divine forces froathered in that vortex,” Son of Darkness suddenly spoke

Zhang Ruochen’s heart skipped a beat He quickly asked, “Where is the divine-force vortex?”

Son of Darkness didn’t say anything Instead, he used his finger to draw on the ground again

ht shot into the sky It broke throughthat was hidden very deeply

Zhang Ruochen and the Maiden of a Thousand Stars looked up Without any obstacles, they could see the sky from thousands of feet away

Just as Son of Darkness had said, there was a huge divine-force vortex there It spun slowly They could vaguely feel the ominous aura emanated fro

After a short ht disappeared, and the divine-force vortex was out of sight

Son of Darkness coughed intensely, his face ashen He was on the verge of death
