Chapter 2245: Chapter 2245
After the illusion devoured Tu Yuan's primordial spirit, Su Yang felt a terrifying force rushing onto him, almost knocking him out on the spot.
This was because Su Yang's body currently lacked flesh, reduced to just a skeleton.
If he had flesh and blood, this force would have definitely burst all of it!
Su Yang gritted his teeth, enduring the painful sensation. It took a long while before the feeling gradually subsided.
At that moment, it was as if something suddenly appeared in Su Yang's mind. This was a very mysterious feeling; Su Yang could clearly sense the trajectories of the stars around him, traces of floating dust, and the air flowβthe marks of everything surrounding him.
Furthermore, Su Yang could feel the traces of power circulating in the bodies of saints in the distance, which was extremely peculiar.
Su Yang couldn't help but wonder, could this be the legendary Saint's Heart?
Tu Yuan had said that the Saint's Heart is the saints' understanding of the heavenly laws, the fundamental Tao of the universe. This Tao cannot be destroyed, so the Saint's Heart is also indestructible.
A saint is truly immortal and indestructible, and that is because of the Saint's Heart.
Once the Saint's Heart is integrated into the primordial spirit, that spirit becomes immortal.
Because no matter what you do, you cannot destroy the Tao of the universe!
And now, the illusion of Devouring the World has devoured Tu Yuan's primordial spirit and even fused his Saint's Heart? Devouring the World must be incredibly powerful!
While Su Yang was pondering this, the Ashura King went berserk.
Tu Yuan died at Su Yang's hands!
The Ashura King was nearly spitting blood!
He knew Tu Yuan's strength was weak, but he sent Tu Yuan to the Human World first because he was confident that no one there could threaten Tu Yuan.
It wasn't necessary for Tu Yuan to grab the divine artifact; he just needed to come into contact with it. By contacting the divine artifact and experiencing the Saint's Heart through its power, this was a way to help Tu Yuan quickly integrate with the Saint's Heart.
Once Tu Yuan integrated the Saint's Heart, he would become a truly powerful saint, his future limitless. And thereafter, the Asura Realm would finally stand equal to the Feather Realm, Demon Realm, Ghost Realm, and the like.
But he never dreamed that Tu Yuan's trip to the Human World would result in this outcome. Not only did he fail to contact the divine artifact or comprehend the Saint's Heart, but he even lost his life there.
He really couldn't figure out how Su Yang managed to kill Tu Yuan.
Tu Yuan's primordial spirit had already integrated the Saint's Heart; how could he be killed?
Even the former Human Emperor Xuanyuan, besieged by the Eight Realms Saints, didn't die in battle. Ultimately, Human Emperor Xuanyuan sacrificed his Power of Saint to protect the Human World and sealed the Eight Realms Boundary Point, leading to his demise.
In other words, Human Emperor Xuanyuan shattered his own Saint's Heart, and that's why he died.
Otherwise, even if the other Eight Realms Saints joined forces, the possibility of shattering Human Emperor Xuanyuan's Saint's Heart was not great.
But now, what's going on? Tu Yuan's Saint's Heart was actually destroyed by someone?
The saints were in shock, yet the Ashura King was furious, suddenly charging at Su Yang, shouting, "Su, I'm going to kill you!"
In his words, the Ashura King already had a long knife in hand, striking it at Su Yang.
Su Yang hurriedly lifted the Xuanyuan Sword to resist, but his strength was far inferior to the Ashura King's. With one blow, Su Yang was directly sent flying tens of thousands of meters away.
Before he could stabilize, the Ashura King had arrived, stepping onto Su Yang's chest from above.
Su Yang raised his hand to block, but the Ashura King's foot was like a mountain pressing down, forcefully stepping on his hand, stomping heavily onto his chest.
Su Yang groaned, the pain in his body nearly causing him to faint.
But the Ashura King didn't stop at all, continuously using fists, feet, and his long knife to batter Su Yang across the sky, leaving him without any power to retaliate.
The Ashura King was now completely enraged, attacking with all his might, intent on killing Su Yang.
After all, he was an old saint, and the Ashura Blade in his hand was considered a half-divine artifact. With an all-out assault, Su Yang was no match for him, being driven back step by step.
However, Su Yang's bones were extremely robust. Despite receiving such heavy blows, his bones showed no damage, astonishing the observing saints.
"What kind of bones are these, even stronger than our saints' bones?" the Feather Clan saint asked in amazement.
"This boy's body holds too many secrets!" the Demon Clan saint said solemnly. "He can enter the Feather Spirit Palace, which is not something ordinary people can do!"
"What's really going on?"
The saints were all bewildered, but none of them stopped the Ashura King.
If they could get others to take action while they watched, it would be the best situation. Who would stop the Ashura King and then be forced to deal with Su Yang themselves?
Considering the strength of Su Yang's bones, these saints were really unwilling to fight him!
After taking hundreds of hits from the Ashura King, Su Yang finally seized an opportunity to hurriedly escape the range of the Ashura King's attacks.
"Ashura King, do you also want to fight me?" Su Yang shouted angrily.
"I want to kill you!" The Ashura King roared aggressively.
Tu Yuan was his son, a saint he had painstakingly cultivated with considerable resources. With this saint, the Asura Clan stood taller, finally able to compete against the Demon Clan, Ghost Realm, Feather Realm, and the like.
But now, Tu Yuan had been slain by Su Yang. His son was dead, and the backbone of the Asura Clan had been broken.
In such circumstances, could the Ashura King not be furious? He directed all his hatred at Su Yang, at this moment only wanting to kill Su Yang for revenge, caring about nothing else.
Divine artifacts, he wouldn't think about them either. Tu Yuan was dead, and the Asura Clan could absolutely never obtain this divine artifact again.
So his sole thought was revenge!
"If you want to kill me, you'll pay a price!" Su Yang said coldly. "Ashura King, with all the other saints watching intently, you dare come at me? Hmph, aren't you afraid of paying too high a price here, resulting in the Asura Clan facing the same fate as my Human World in the future?"
"Su, don't try to scare me. With your meager strength, you are insignificant before me!" The Ashura King roared in anger, "Tu Yuan had just upgraded to saint, and his Saint's Heart was unstable, so you found an opportunity to kill him. But I have merged with the Saint's Heart for tens of thousands of years, how can you fight me? Killing you requires no price; to me, you are just an insignificant ant!"
