Chapter 1183: Tit for Tat (1/2)

“Self detonation!” Chi Wuxia’s voice shook when he heard Lu Yun’s warning.

Huo Shentong was no match for Chi Wuxia, but if Huo Shentong threw caution to the wind and self detonated, he’d take out ten Chi Wuxias.

As a premier eternal overlord, Huo Shentong fought at the peak of his cultivation level. How much power would his core essence explode with? No one below sovereign realm would be able to withstand it!

Lu Yun had already fled back to the palaces with Ying Luo and the others. Chi Wuxia stared at the blazing Huo Shentong, a forceful smirk forming on his face.

“You want to self detonate in front of me? DIE!!”

Hummm.

An enormous black hole abruptly appeared in front of Chi Wuxia and flared with extensive suction force. It enveloped a Huo Shentong on the verge of losing control, fully devouring the man just before his self detonation ripped throughout the chaos. It then vanished completely, and a tiny tendril of black smoke wafted out of Chi Wuxia’s mouth as he emitted a satisfied, mighty belch.

“Nirvana… a return to quiet. The final extinguishment! I see!” Black sparkles shimmered into existence around him as he entered a strange mental state, replacing the flames previously leaping from his body.

Nirvana!

The order of nirvana surged into Chi Wuxia from all directions, affecting their immediate vicinity and redirecting tiny sizzles of black electricity into his body. He realized with utmost shock that he… seemed to be able to control the dreadful chaos tribulation!

That thought existed for only half a second before he plunged back into a mental state of quiet and nothingness.

Breakthrough!

Swallowing Huo Shentong’s power propelled Chi Wuxia through that last layer of obstruction, enabling him to reach sovereign realm!

“Chi Wuxia, you will answer for my son’s life!!” A grief-stricken howl rose in the chaos as a scarlet figure descended like a blazing meteor. It crashed straight down on Chi Wuxia—the prime of the fire origin sacred land, Huo Shentong’s father!

Having just witnessed Chi Wuxia swallow his son whole, the fire origin prime lost all rational thought. He mobilized all of his power so that he could take Chi Wuxia’s head!

The primes of the nine sacred lands had long become sovereigns thanks to guidance from the Hongmeng creatures. Though their foundations weren’t as strong as veteran sovereigns, the throes of tremendous fury and despair pushed this prime’s strength to new heights.

He was one massive fireball about to crush the ascending Chi Wuxia.

Preoccupied with his breakthrough, Chi Wuxia’s tribulation for setting foot into sovereign realm was upon him. However, the black lightning of the chaos tribulation continuously burrowed into his body and restrained his strength. He could already sense impending danger, but there was nothing he could do other than quietly wait for death.

BOOOM.

A gigantic collision echoed, like a chaos star had exploded.

Sparks spewed in all directions, the scintillating radiance forcing even sovereigns to avert their eyes. A momentary lull appeared in the frenzied melee of the darkened chaos.
