Chapter 726: Chapter 726
As his words fell, Xu Ye's body turned into a phantom and rushed in front of Lin Chen, sending the immobilized Lin Chen flying with a palm strike.
The Sect Hierarch of Hei An glanced at Xu Ye, fell silent, and sat back down in the middle of the Formation.
"Bro Xu, let me take care of this guy for you," Yi Ge said eagerly from the side.
Having just dueled with Lin Chen and not being his match, almost getting killed by Lin Chen, Yi Ge sought revenge now that he had Xu Ye as an ally.
"You protect the Sect Hierarch, I'll handle this kid," Xu Ye said, gesturing with his hand and speaking coldly.
"Xu Ye, get the hell away from me!" Lin Chen yelled in anger.
"Hmph, don't even think about stopping our Sect Hierarch from becoming the God of Darkness!" Xu Ye snorted coldly.
By now, the sun had set, and the sky outside had begun to darken.
Lin Chen was frantic, launching fierce attacks at Xu Ye non-stop.
Under Lin Chen's full-on assault, Xu Ye began to falter, and finally, caught off guard, he was blasted away by Lin Chen's palm and crashed heavily at the foot of the Sect Hierarch of Hei An.
Xu Ye staggered to his feet, then suddenly, his gaze turned icy, and with a twist of his body, he grabbed the Sect Hierarch of Hei An from behind.
"Lin Chen, do it now! His weakness is his heart, hurry, this is our only chance," Xu Ye roared.
The sudden turn of events shocked everyone present; the Sect Hierarch of Hei An's face turned deadly cold.
"Xu Ye, you dare to betray me," the Sect Hierarch of Hei An said icily.
"Betrayal? Sorry, I was never on the same page as you. The reclusive master from Kunlun sacrificed himself to place me by your side for this very day."
"Xu Ye!" Lin Chen was startled to see Xu Ye embrace the Sect Hierarch of Hei An without regard for his own safety.
"Lin Chen, don't mind me. Strike now!" Xu Ye shouted.
Lin Chen clenched his teeth, and the Thunder Sword in his hand thrust out violently, piercing directly into the heart of the Sect Hierarch of Hei An!
The Sect Hierarch of Hei An let out a fierce roar as a surge of dark energy erupted forth.
Lin Chen and Xu Ye were sent flying directly by the Sect Hierarch of Hei An.
A pitch-black hole appeared in the chest of the Sect Hierarch of Hei An where the Thunder Sword had pierced, and countless resentful spirits spilled out from within.
The face of the Sect Hierarch of Hei An rapidly withered away, becoming like a skeleton.
"You insignificant ants have truly enraged me. Thinking of killing me, you're thinking too simply!" As he spoke, the Sect Hierarch of Hei An stretched out his hand and grabbed Yi Ge, who was beside him.
"Sect Hierarch, please don't kill me. I won't run away again, please don't!"
However, the Sect Hierarch of Hei An paid no heed to Yi Ge's pleading, and a surge of dark energy erupted from his palm, directly engulfing Yi Ge!
Seeing this scene, the expression on Lin Chen's and Xu Ye's faces changed involuntarily.
"Sorry to disappoint you, but my heart is on the right side!" sneered the Sect Hierarch of Hei An, as two masses of dark energy instantly lunged at Lin Chen and Xu Ye.
Meanwhile, on another front, Pan La was being burned to death and then reviving repeatedly under the relentless barrage of firewall lotuses unleashed by Emon.
Finally, after another round of incineration, Pan La's body did not regenerate but began to dissipate bit by bit.
With a look of reluctance on his face, Pan La said, "I was just one step away from ascending to godhood with the Sect Hierarch. I can't accept this. I can't accept it!"
Accompanied by agonized howling, Pan La turned to ash.
At that moment, Luo De was yet again kicked flying by General, crashing heavily into a wall.
"Luo De, I'll help you," Emon said, appearing in front of Luo De.
Then, Luo De wiped the blood from his mouth: "You go help Lin Chen. I'll deal with this one."
"But you!" Emon look worriedly at the badly injured Luo De.
"Don't mind me, there's not much time left, go help Lin Chen!" A Shi said with a resolute gaze.
Emon nodded at A Shi's determined eyes and ran towards the depths of the corridor.
Luo De, holding his twin blades, looked coldly at A Shi, "Warm-up is over, now let me show you my true strength!"
As he spoke, Luo De lifted the eyepatch from his other eye.
Luo De's other eye gleamed with a bloody red, emitting a chilling murderous aura.
A Shi gave a faint smile and took out a piece of black cloth to blindfold herself, "Since General Luo De is going to use his trump card, then of course, I, A Shi, won't hold back anymore."
"Heart Eye Technique, huh? Good, let's see what you've got!" As soon as he finished speaking, Luo De lunged at A Shi like lightning.
At this moment, the staff in A Shi's hands slowly raised, and behind her, a full moon surprisingly appeared.
Meanwhile, Lin Chen and Xu Ye were frantically attacking the dark miasma wrapped around the Sect Hierarch of Hei An.
However, the defense of the Sect Hierarch of Hei An was indestructible, utterly impenetrable.
Suddenly, a roaring fire dragon smashed into the Sect Hierarch's defenses.
Cracks began to appear in the barrier formed by the dark miasma.
"Push harder, we're about to finish him off," Lin Chen said delightedly upon seeing the cracks.
But just at that moment, suddenly a ray of moonlight poured down from above.
"Damn it!" Seeing that moonlight, Lin Chen and the others were filled with horror.
They saw the blood Formation under the feet of the Sect Hierarch come alive, swirling and rapidly being absorbed into his body.
With a violent roar, the entire underground laboratory was engulfed in red light.
In almost an instant, A Shi and Luo De crossed paths.
They stood back to back; A Shi's clothing was instantly soaked with blood, and a deep cut was etched into her shoulder.
Luo De stood in place, looking at the bloody hole in his chest and smiled bitterly.
"I never expected the Heart Eye Technique to be so formidable. Obsessed with Sword Dao all my life, dying by the sword is also worthwhile. Please apologize to my daughter for me!"
With those words, a gush of blood spurted out, and Luo De fell to the ground.
The entire underground laboratory shook violently, and A Shi, seeing the moon engulfed in blood mist, her expression slightly shifted, "Could it be a failure?"
At this moment, the entire city of Man was shrouded in red light; countless people felt as if their souls were drained and collapsed onto the ground.
In a manor, Cager sat inside the study, a surging blood Formation beneath him.
With the entrance of moonlight, Cager's face was full of excitement.
"I, Cager, can finally be immortal!"
However, suddenly he felt as if all his blood was being drained away, and he quickly aged.
"No, how can this be? Wasn't I supposed to be immortal?"
With a woeful howl, Cager actually dissolved into a puddle of blood.
At that moment, a red light shone in the sky, and the entire city of Man was covered in a fog of blood.
At this time, the entire city of Man fell into silence; everyone was paralyzed on the ground, their Soul Bodies extracted by a mysterious force, gathering towards the underground laboratory.
When A Shi reached the heart of the laboratory, she saw Lin Chen and the others lying on the ground, covered in wounds.
In the center, sitting on a chair, the old man had transformed into a handsome young man.
He wore a wicked smile on his lips, "Haha, I finally succeeded. I, the Sect Hierarch of Hei An—no, you should call me the God of Darkness."
