Chapter 1536 – Life and Curse
At this moment, Zhao Feng, within his expanded Dream Dimension, was struck by the two dark purple balls of mist. Powerful Dream Dao energy seeped into Zhao Feng’s soul, unleashing a barrage of negative emotions.
But in the Dream Dimension, all aspects of Zhao Feng’s strength were increased, and he was able to resist the encroachment of this power. Gradually, Zhao Feng was able to stabilize the situation and began to comprehend the power of the Thousand Devil Nightmare.
At this moment, Zhao Feng became alarmed by an ancient and sinister energy.
“The Protector… is he going to act?” Zhao Feng looked into the distance.
This was not his first time interacting with the Left Protector. However, last time, the Protector only took out a Pseudo Ancestral Artifact and used it to casually attack. It was impossible to judge anything about his strength from that sight.
But now, Zhao Feng could truly sense just how sinister, frightening, and powerful the Protector was. This sensation reminded him of the Cursed Words of Death.
“I’ll let you experience this old man’s Shaman arts!” The Left Protector extended his hands. Countless dark rays of light shot out from them, all of them exuding a sinister and frightening energy.
“Shaman arts!?” A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of God King Radiant Peak and the Life God.
When talking about Shaman arts, one had to bring up the 2nd ranked Ancient Shaman Race. This race was the oldest and most mysterious of the Ten Thousand Ancient Races. It was almost extinct at present. Their various curses and Shaman arts were something that even the number one Ancient Race had feared.
“Blood Spirit Shaman Gu Art!” The Left Protector waved his hands, his ten fingers sweeping around in the air, drawing out various mysterious characters and diagrams.
Hisssss!
Pitch-black rays of energy seethed behind the Left Protector, and one could vaguely make out a figure dressed in a pitch-black cloak within these rays of energy. This figure had a face of black nothingness, and it thrust forward two wrinkled and dried-up claws. Suddenly, a dark red light appeared in that black mass of energy. It spilled out and slowly disappeared into the surrounding space.
Although many members on the battlefield felt that something was wrong, they didn’t know what they should be on their guard against.
“Disappeared?” Zhao Feng pushed his left eye to its limits.
Gradually, countless dark red rays of light appeared in his vision. If he looked carefully, these dark red lines appeared like insects dripping with blood.
Within his Dream Dimension, Zhao Feng was not very worried, but those other people on the battlefield who could not see these things probably had little chance of surviving.
Hwoooo!
These dark red lines began to seek out enemies under the Protector’s control.
“Mm?” A God Lord suddenly sensed a chilling silver energy penetrating into his flesh. A moment later, he felt his vitality plunging, his blood drying up.
Upon carefully sensing, he discovered that his body had been invaded by dark red lines.
“What’s going on?”
“Ah …!”
Many frightened screams resounded across the battlefield.
“What a powerful Shaman art!” God King Radiant Peak had a powerful Divine Sense and was particularly sensitive when it came to flesh and vitality. He could naturally tell what was going on.
At this point, he was compelled to take action.
“Be careful!” the Life God warned.
It was clear that the Heaven Defying Faction’s Protector had delved deeply into the Shaman arts and curses of the Ancient Shaman Race.
The most fundamental point when it came to fighting him was that he could not be carelessly killed. If he set up a Cursed Words of Death, such a powerful offering would create a curse that even the Life God would find very hard to break.
But it wasn’t like nothing could be done about the Cursed Words of Death. For example, he could be captured alive or killed using a pet or low-level cultivator.
Many of the Life Sacred Land’s members suddenly detected abnormalities in their bodies. However, none of them had any experience in suppressing the Left Protector’s Blood Spirit Shaman Gu Art.
Anyone struck by this art would initially begin to suffer a decline in condition. Enemies that they once could fight equally with would begin to gain an advantage.
Inside his Dream Dimension, Zhao Feng was inspecting those members struck by the Blood Spirit Shaman Gu Art.
Whenever one of those dark red strings drifted into his Dream Dimension, he would use the Dream Dimension and the power of Realization to destroy them.
Bzzzz!
Zhao Feng was observing a person nearby with his left eye. This was a Rank Nine Ancient God who had been infected by the Blood Spirit Shaman Gu Art. Zhao Feng discovered that the dark red lines in this person’s body were absorbing his blood and bloodline energy. Whenever this Ancient God used their bloodline power, the dark red lines would devour even faster.
At this moment:
“Ah…!” A Rank Eight Ancient God extremely far away suddenly screamed.
This Ancient God had become a shriveled husk, and blood was pouring out of every orifice. He had lost all rationality and was randomly attacking both friend and foe.
“The Blood Spirit Shaman Gu Art attacks one’s Yuan Qi. Once a person is completely devoured, they will give birth to a Blood Spirit Gu,” the Left Protector spoke in a chilling voice.
At this moment, the Rank Eight Ancient God spasmed, and a repulsive long insect as thick as an arm erupted from his head. This massive red insect was dripping with blood, and the moment it emerged, it shot toward a nearby green- robed woman in a bloody streak of light.
The dark red insect moved with such speed that ordinary Ancient Gods were incapable of dodging.
The green-robed woman trembled all over in fright, her face turning ghastly pale.
But at this moment:
Thwish!
A dark green ray of light pierced through the insect. The insect’s vitality was rapidly drained away, and its dried-up husk dropped to the ground.
“Hmph, how inhumane! To use such an evil Shaman art!” God King Radiant Peak grunted.
He brought his hands together, releasing a dark green halo.
“Origin of Life!”
As God King Radiant Peak’s dark green halo spread outward, crystalline green points of light began to coalesce within it. These green points of light began to sprinkle even more green points of light across the world.
The Left Protector turned grim. He was extremely curious to see how God King Radiant Peak would handle his art.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Under God King Radiant Peak’s control, these green dots of light flew into the bodies of those infected by the Blood Spirit Shaman Gu Art.
“So that’s what’s going on!” Zhao Feng was surprised.
Those dark red lines enjoyed devouring vitality and blood. These green lights were brimming with vitality; the moment they entered the bodies of the infected, those dark red lines would immediately eat them.
But taking too much at once became a bad thing.
Bang!
Each dark red line that consumed a green point of light exploded. Meanwhile, the bloodline energy and Life energy was left inside the body of the infected for them to slowly absorb, allowing them to heal and recover.
Of course, with regards to those extremely powerful Blood Spirit Gu, God King Radiant Peak would personally send green dots of light to seize their lives and obliterate them.
“Those excelling in the Life Law can not only save lives but seize them as well!” Zhao Feng couldn’t help but nod.
God King Radiant Peak’s understanding of the Life Laws and his minute control over them was truly deserving of admiration.
“Let me send you a thank-you gift!” God King Radiant Peak’s face chilled.
Buzz! Bzzz!
His eyes gleamed with crystalline green lights and began to surge with boundless Life energy. Circulating his Life Law, God King Radiant Peak formed a dark green seed the size of a human palm between his eyes.
This dark green seed exuded powerful Life energy, but for some reason, looking at it instilled dread.
Thwish!
The dark green seed was thrown into the back lines of the Heaven Defying Faction.
Wherever the seed went, it stripped away life. Even before it hit the ground, it had already begun to bud and grow. By the time it landed, it had grown into a thick dark green vine more than one thousand feet long.
Hwooo! Boom! Boom!
The dark green vine writhed and lashed, quickly seizing several dozen members of the Heaven Defying Faction. These people were rapidly turned into nothing but white bones.
Meanwhile, the dark green vine continued to lengthen and thicken. A few seconds later, several hundred vines had emerged, flailing around and wiping out the life of anything they touched.
Fwooosh!
These demonic vines continued to frenziedly grow, and a few moments later, they had engulfed more than half of the battlefield, vine monsters slaughtering anything they touched. These demonic vines possessed abnormally tenacious vitality and were exceptionally bloodthirsty and violent. Their surroundings, on the other hand, were littered with white bones and stank of death.
“As expected, a faction that can be called a Sacred Land can’t be simple!” Zhao Feng was taken aback.
In the sky:
“Hmph!” The Left Protector coldly snorted.
In his palm, dark rays of energy and ancient characters began to shift around.
“Curse of Decay!” the Left Protector called out in his raspy voice. A dark gray mist spewed out from his hand, appearing like some ugly and repulsive creature.
Kacrack!
The dark gray mist landed on one of the demonic vines. The dark green vine instantly began to writhe and moan as if in terrible pain. The surface of the vine began to turn into puss that oozed into the ground.
Kabooom!
This decaying effect soon spread to the entirety of the demonic vine, turning all of its numerous offshoots into foul pus.
This sight had all the people on the battlefield trembling in fear. The battle of two God Kings was truly too terrifying! Even Zhao Feng was rather astonished, even a little entranced by this sight.
Of course, he didn’t forget that he still had other things to do. At this moment, he was comprehending the Nightmare Beast King’s Dream Dao energy contained within the Thousand Devil Nightmare. At the same time, Zhao Feng was also gradually withdrawing his Dream Dimension, allowing the power of the Thousand Devil Nightmare to increase so that it could further temper Zhao Feng’s soul.
His Soul Intent had only just reached peak Second Heaven. Through this tempering, it became very stabilized.
Eventually, Zhao Feng completely dispelled the Dream Dimension. Maintaining the Dream Dimension consumed vast amounts of Dream Origin energy and Thought power. Besides that, Zhao Feng had already used many Dream eye- bloodline techniques. It was best if he was more conservative with his reserves.
Meanwhile, the battle between the two top-class God Kings continued.
“Ghostfiend Death Curse!” The Left Protector’s face turned savage as he conjured up a pitch-black and ghostly fog in front of him that wailed and shrieked.
Countless restless ghosts seemed to be trapped within this fog, reaching out with their white and sharp claws to rip and tear or sticking out tongues that were dripping with blood as they shrieked.
Boom! Bang!
Suddenly, the pitch-black fog exploded, unleashing countless ghosts onto the battlefield that charged into the Sacred Land forces.
Five or six of these evil spirits extended their claws and opened their bloody mouths at Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng immediately used his left eye to unleash Primal Chaos Tribulation Lightning Flame.
Hissss!
The ghosts wailed as they gradually collapsed.
Dream power could target all things while Tribulation Lightning energy was the bane of such evil spirits.
However, few of the others had Zhao Feng’s abilities. These abnormally powerful ghosts swept through the Life Sacred Land’s forces, invading their souls.
“What a powerful curse! These evil spirits can stir up the evil thoughts in the minds of people and continue to encroach on their minds until they make these people swear to follow them in death!” As Zhao Feng used his left eye to observe the massive battlefield, he was left stunned.
Not only could this Ghostfiend Death Curse affect a person’s mental state, it could also devour a person’s blood and force a person into madness and death. It could be considered a weak version of the Cursed Words of Death.
God King Radiant Peak was taken aback. The Left Protector’s curse this time was aimed at the soul and was exceptionally powerful. Suppressing it would be extremely difficult.
Many of the members of the Sacred Land were infected by this curse, and their fighting power began to plunge. The situation would be extremely bad if this continued.
At this moment:
“It’s about time… for this battle to end!” Within the Sacred Land, the long-silent Life God sorrowfully sighed as her majestic and elegant figure slowly stepped forward.
