Chapter 1523: What Are You Running For?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

A familiar voice rang out behind Bu Fang. Then, a slim hand rested on his shoulder, stopping him in his attempt to crush the divine power liquid drop.

His brows furrowed as he glanced at the hand that was wrapped in ghostly green light. There was no doubt that the voice came from Nethery. Had she finished receiving the inheritance?

Bu Fang turned his head and met Nethery’s eyes. At that instant, he felt a bitter chill rise from the depths of his heart. She still gave him the same familiar feeling, but her aura was different.

In his eyes, the cursed snake inside her had completely awakened and was staring at him with its forked tongue sticking out. The feeling that sent shivers down his spine came from this very snake.

Nethery floated up in midair, her long ghostly green hair fluttering gently in the wind. She was more beautiful now, but it was a kind of beauty without any feelings and as cold as an iceberg. She came up to Bu Fang and stopped him. As her dress danced with the wind, her long fair legs were exposed, attracting eyeballs.

“Alright,” Bu Fang replied in a serious tone. He did not turn her down. The dead woman’s strength was obvious to all, and since she had fused her power with Nethery, the latter’s strength must have reached an astonishing level. So he did not want to argue with her about who should fight. Also, he could take this opportunity to see how strong she was now.

He was well aware of his own strength. If he did not crush the divine power liquid drop, he was actually very weak. After all, he was only a Demigod. To be honest, he was starting to feel that his current strength was not enough, and he even wanted to break through to the God realm sooner.

But there was a voice within him that kept telling him to be patient, to wait until he had comprehended five supreme Laws of the Universe before breaking through. If he was willing to wait patiently, his strength would reach a heaven-defying level when the time came!

Therefore... He decided to let Nethery deal with these people for now.

Nethery was slightly taken aback by his answer. She did not expect him to agree with her so readily. Pouting her red lips, she turned to face the experts who were swarming toward them.

She took a deep breath, her ample chest heaving. Then, she lifted an arm, which glittered like the finest jade, and gently pointed the air with her finger. A humming sound could be heard as ripples spread out and swept past the bodies of those approaching God Kings.

Yu Qiu’s eyes were cold. “She needs to be killed!”

He once read in the classics that when a Cursed Goddess unleashed her full power, she was capable of destroying a great world. This showed that once a Cursed Goddess awakened, she represented calamity. Although they were now in the relic, it was better to eliminate this kind of existence as soon as possible.

A sword light was unleashed, which split into a thousand swords in an instant, then ten thousand. In the blink of an eye, the whole sky was filled with swords. The next moment, they all shot down like crazy, engulfing Nethery in a flash!

‘Can she fend off this move?’ Bu Fang suddenly had some doubts. Looking at Nethery, who looked as fragile as a small flower swaying in a storm, he began to worry a little. ‘Or shall I crush the divine power liquid drop?’ However, his worries were obviously unnecessary, for Nethery soon showed her remarkable strength.

The ghostly green cursed snake was no longer blurry. It had taken on a physical form and was now slithering around Nethery. Its scales were emerald green, each glowing coldly.

Tian Cang once said that if the cursed snake broke out, Nethery would die. That was because her strength was still too weak. After fusing with the power of the dead woman, her physical body had now reached a level comparable to the body of a Heavengod, so the cursed snake was no longer a threat to her. Instead, it was now a great aid to her and her strongest means of attack!

Rumble!

The sword that descended from the sky cut into the cursed snake’s body, sank about an inch into it, and could go no further. Suddenly, a stream of dark green energy slowly gushed out of its body, wrapped the sword, and spread along the blade up to the hilt.

“This is... the curse power?!” Yu Qiu gasped. He felt as if an aura of death was surging toward him. The fact that even he, a top-grade God King, could feel the threat of death showed how terrifying this green energy was.

There were three thousand Laws in the Chaotic Universe. Of course, the so-called three thousand were just a vague concept. In fact, there were many Laws, more than three thousand. However, Yu Qiu had never seen the Law of Curse. It was as rare as the supreme Laws of the Universe.

The girl in front of him was naturally not using the Law of Curse, but it had a similar effect to the Power of Law, and it was just as terrifying. He was forced to give up his sword. Then, without hesitation, he turned around and sped away from the girl as fast as he could.

Boom!

Xuan Kong’s fist plummeted and slammed hard on the cursed snake. He was glowing with a dazzling holy light from top to bottom, and his flesh burst with great physical strength. He wanted to tear the huge snake apart.

However, he soon retreated as well, as the curse power caught his fist and quickly spread to his arm. The holy light that enveloped him was eroded, and his mighty flesh began to rot.

“This curse power is too... terrifying!”

Xuan Kong’s face fell. No wonder it was said that a mature Cursed Goddess could wipe out a whole great world alone. The curse power was indeed very dreadful. Desperately, he released a stronger holy light and used it to suppress the curse power on his arm.

The cursed snake wheeled around Nethery, spitting its forked tongue. Corroded by the curse power, Yu Qiu’s sword was soon reduced to a heap of rotten metal and disappeared into the void.

“Dammit...” Yu Qiu gritted his teeth. “What a horrifying Cursed Goddess!”

Nethery’s long hair fluttered in the wind. Her red lips parted slightly, her eyes turned green, and the pattern on her neck that was the bite mark began to emit light. Then, her aura changed and became very lofty and indifferent, as if she was a deity overlooking the living things from the sky above!

The change of her aura was abrupt. It reminded Bu Fang of the dead woman, as Nethery’s aura at the moment was very similar to her. If it wasn’t for the fact that he could still sense her aura, he might have thought she was being possessed!

“What a familiar scene... Is this the destiny of the Cursed Goddess?” Nethery said sadly, her voice sounding like two people talking at the same time.

Facing the many God Kings and the top experts, she raised her hand and sighed. That sigh was full of stories. “It’s really lonely when the whole world is your enemy... In that case, let all be wiped out,” said Nethery.

As soon as those words left her mouth, she reached out her hand and lightly tapped the cursed snake’s head. It immediately opened its mouth, hissed, and rose to the sky. When it came up to midair, it suddenly exploded and burst into a blinding light like the sun, illuminating the whole world. Then, thousands of little cursed snakes emerged and shot out in all directions!

Yu Qiu’s expression changed dramatically, while Xuan Kong felt a wave of horror wash over him.

Soon, those little cursed snakes covered everything, turning into a huge ball that completely enveloped the bodies of all the terrifying beings present.

Roar!

The Rainbow Butterfly felt the threat of death. She flapped her wings desperately, flying frantically toward the distance. However, as she flew, her body turned ghostly green and began to rot, and holes appeared across her wings as a result of corrosion. Soon, her beautiful and charming figure went up in flames.

The Demon Mammoth was roaring. With his trunk raised high, his enormous body burst forth from the area where the cursed snakes gathered. However, his appearance had become very miserable. He was now covered with snakes, and as he ran, his flesh slowly fell off.

Everyone watched the scene in shock. In the process of fleeing, the huge Demon Mammoth gradually turned into a white skeleton, fell from the air, smashed onto the ground with a crash, and broke into pieces.

When Bu Fang saw the huge Demon Mammoth turn into a skeleton, he felt heartbroken. ‘That’s a very precious ingredient...’ He did not care if that butterfly was killed. That thing was an insect and could not be eaten. But the mammoth was full of meat!

His stomach growled. He was hungry again, but the mammoth was gone.

Miserable shrieks filled the sky and sent shivers down the spines of those who watched from afar. They watched the horrible scene in disbelief. Those two were the mighty existences ranked on the Blood Beast King List, but they were turned into bones in an instant...

One after another, figures rushed out of the cursed field. However, the curses had already attached to their bodies. Like the Demon Mammoth and the Rainbow Butterfly before them, they soon turned to bones and completely disappeared from this world.

The gatekeeper was terrified. It never occurred to him that he would be confronted with such a crisis. It seemed to him that the curse power was more terrible than the supreme Law of the Universe. He kept slapping his body, but he just could not get them off him.

His body was constantly being corroded, but he could only watch helplessly as it happened. He did not want to die. He regretted it now. He should not have gotten involved in this mess. However, it was no use crying over spilled milk.

Soon, the mighty gatekeeper also turned into bones and fell to the ground...

Nethery’s face was cold like a proud queen, looking as if life was just an ant in her hands. She raised her arm and waved. At the gesture, all the little cursed snakes came flying back to her and wheeled around her. These cursed snakes, which were powerful enough to kill even high-grade God Kings, did not affect her body at all. That was the strength of the cursed body!

Bu Fang was dumbfounded. Neither violent nor ferocious could describe Nethery at this moment. It was as if she had replaced her shotgun with a cannon and became extremely powerful in an instant!

The air became completely silent. No one dared to breathe too loudly. In just a flash, the battle array consisting of human God Kings and Blood Beast Kings was completely routed. There were countless casualties, and even the gatekeeper, who ranked on the God King List, had turned to bones.

Only Yu Qiu and Xuan Kong, who looked very miserable, were left hovering in the sky. They were still alive, but they were almost as good as dead. Their flesh had rotted away, exposing their bones.

“I...” Yu Qiu was a little horrified. Looking at the girl who was so beautiful that even heaven and earth became a little dim before her, he could not understand why she was so poisonous. The burning pain coming from his divine sense and flesh made him tremble. He turned to flee, but was terrified to find a hand had rested on his shoulder at some point.

“What are you... running for...”

A cold voice rang out behind him, sending chills down his spine.

“I...” Yu Qiu opened his mouth to say something, but strands of ghostly green hair had stretched over and wrapped his face and entire body...

Eventually, he burst like a bubble with a poof.

“Ahhh!” Xuan Kong screamed in terror. He was a big man weighing three hundred catties, but at this moment, he was scared like a little girl weighing only fifty catties! His fists had long since been corroded to nothing but bones. He turned his body and was about to flee...

“What are you... running for...”

When Xuan Kong heard those words, all his hair stood up at once. “No, I won’t run! I won’t!” he said in a trembling voice.

‘Sorceress! This is a real and terrifying sorceress! The Cursed Goddess is too f*cking horrible!’

“It’s good that you’re not running anymore. Saves me the trouble of having to chase you...” Nethery said lightly. Her voice, which sounded as if two people were talking at the same time, gave those who heard it goosebumps all over their bodies.

The next moment, her green hair stretched out again, wrapping Xuan Kong’s despairing face in an instant. Then, just like Yu Qiu, he burst like a bubble.

Just like that, two top-grade God Kings ranked on the God King List had fallen.

“So ferocious?!”

Luo Sanniang and Summer were dumbfounded. In the distance, Lord Dog twitched his mouth. Directly across from him, the existence shrouded in a hazy mist, who was actually the expert ranked top on the God King List, raised his hand and rubbed his chin. Meanwhile, Tai Fei’s eyes gleamed strongly with greed!

Looking at Nethery’s beautiful figure from behind, Bu Fang did not know what to say. He was having a hard time getting used to the fact that she had become so fearsome.

Suddenly, his body stiffened. He noticed that she had disappeared in the distance, and then he saw a hand wrapped in a ghostly green light resting on his shoulder.

“What are you... running for...”

Bu Fang was stunned.
