Chapter 1509: Demon Spirit Shattering Decay

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The ground within a radius of 5,000 kilometers was like a mirror with cracks.

Black fire rose from the cracks, turning the surroundings into a sea of fire.

As it burned, countless human souls inside let out mournful cries.

They couldn’t break free and could only be bound in the sea of fire that surrounded the spear.

Eastern Sky Mountain was no longer there.

At the place where the mountain used to be, there was only the shocking spear that pierced into the ground.

The figure standing on the long spear looked like a demon descended upon the world. As his red hair fluttered, seven flames blazed brightly within him.

It was none other than West Demon Child.

What Xu Qing was paying attention to was the heavenly demon phantom behind West Demon Child!

That was the cause of his vigilance and sense of danger.

Although this heavenly demon was illusory, its tall and imposing body, dark and gorgeous armor, gave off an extremely intense sense of oppression. Also, in its deep and cold eyes, there was an evil glint that seemed to be able to see through people’s minds.

Its hair was long and curly, like flames in the night, emitting a strange light.

Its fingers were slender and sharp, as though they could easily tear through everything.

Its body was covered in complicated runes. Not only did they represent the source of its power, but they also seemed to hide some mysterious curse.

With its descent, darkness invaded the void, storm rumbled and formed, and lightning flickered violently.

Everything displayed its dignity and strength.

“Authority…”

A sharp glint flashed in Xu Qing’s eyes as he looked at the demonic shadow. On it, he could sense the dense fluctuations of the Dao mark of authority.

He immediately realized that this wasn’t an ordinary authority!

“My authority is called Demon Spirit Shattering Decay.”

West Demon Child calmly spoke as he looked down at Xu Qing.

“As for whether you are Xue Chenzi or not, it’s meaningless.”

“I am here to fight on behalf of the Seventeenth Ruler Mountain. To avoid bullying the weak, I’ll only use three divine abilities in this battle. If you die, Lu Lingzi can’t blame me. If you survive, it will be considered your fortune, and 1 will spare your life.”

After saying that, he pointed at Xu Qing.

In an instant, the void in front of Xu Qing broke open. A spear that was several feet thick and hundreds of feet long rushed out, tearing through the void and heading straight for Xu Qing.

The rules and laws collapsed where it passed, causing changes in the world and showcasing the power of authority.

It destroyed everything along the way and locked onto Xu Qing’s mind, emitting a terrifying power that was infinitely close to that of a Ruler.

It instantly got close.

Xu Qing’s eyes narrowed.

This West Demon Child’s strength surpassed all the Soul Accumulation cultivators he had encountered before. It could be said that he was the number one person in the Soul Accumulation realm among the enemies he had encountered.

Xu Qing stared at the spear that was rapidly approaching and retreated, maintaining a similar speed.

However, the instant Xu Qing retreated, a second spear appeared in another direction and rushed toward Xu Qing with the same might.

As for the killing momentum, it didn’t end. On the contrary, it increased.

In the blink of an eye, the third, fourth, fifth…

A total of nine earth-shattering terrifying spears appeared in different directions around Xu Qing. They formed a killing aura and sealed off all of Xu Qing’s locations.

It was obvious that West Demon Child didn’t know much about Xu Qing. Or to be precise, even though he knew about Xue Chenzi, he knew nothing about Xu Qing.

Hence, in this strike, although each of the nine spears contained a power close to that of a Ruler and sealed off all directions, forming something similar to a seal,… he didn’t seal sounds.

Hence, in that instant, when the nine spears erupted with monstrous power and all of them landed amidst the deafening booming sounds, they passed through Xu Qing’s location.

Xu Qing’s figure was already blurry. What was pierced was only the afterimage left behind.

His true body had already fused with the sound and disappeared.

When he reappeared, he was already in mid-air, standing behind West Demon Child. He didn’t stop at all and raised his hand to press down with his palm.

However, West Demon Child’s combat experience was extremely rich and his reaction was also astonishingly fast. Almost at the instant Xu Qing appeared and attacked, his figure also turned blurry.

Xu Qing’s palm missed and he abruptly looked up at the sky.

In the sky, the figure of West Demon Child appeared. He lowered his head and stared at Xu Qing with a strange glint in his eyes.

“Interesting.”

The instant he spoke, he raised his right hand again and pointed at Xu Qing.

Immediately, the black sea of fire that covered 5,000 kilometers below erupted. The fire rose into the air and the human souls inside distorted, transforming into spears.

There were ten thousand of them. They flew out together with the sea of fire and headed straight for Xu Qing like a rain of spears.

What was even more terrifying was that the moment these tens of thousands of spears rushed out, they actually split up again, causing the number of spears to increase by ten times to more than 100,000.

They flew up from below and enveloped the area of 5,000 kilometers.

Moreover, although their speed was fast, they were controlled to not make any sound.

Although their individual power was not as great as before, the sheer quantity made its damage surpass that of earlier. Now, silently and imperceptibly, it formed the second killing move of West Demon Child.

They instantly blasted into Xu Qing’s body.

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes. He didn’t dodge. As the vitality in his body churned, he closed his eyes.

At the next moment, the 100,000 spears continued to blast over from all directions. Waves of earth-shattering sounds spread and the place where Xu Qing was in the air shone.

All the laws collapsed and all the rules dissipated. The void shattered and shocking flames erupted.

However, Xu Qing’s figure was as usual.

One could even see the spears that landed on his body. After each of them came into contact with him, although they let out rumbling sounds and formed lethal force, they would collapse first under the rebounding force.

They couldn’t break through Xu Qing’s physical defense.

This scene caused West Demon Child to squint his eyes. However, he wasn’t too surprised. After all, he had long heard that the person in front of him was good at defense. There was a reason why he still attacked after knowing about it.

After those shattered spears collapsed, they erupted with even more black flames. This fire was bizarre and actually attached itself to Xu Qing’s body.

It wasn’t burning but forming small fire vortexes that spun rapidly.

Upon seeing this, killing intent flashed in West Demon Child’s eyes.

“The time has come.”

He rushed into the sky, heading straight for Xu Qing.

The moment he got close, he raised his right hand and the heavenly demon phantom behind him also raised its hand. At the same time that his eyes revealed a dark glint, a complicated incantation echoed from the mouth of the heavenly demon phantom.

Every letter was clear but when they were voiced, one couldn’t understand its meaning.

However, all the black fire vortices on Xu Qing’s body swam as the incantation echoed, heading straight for Xu Qing’s forehead. The spears that hadn’t collapsed also exploded on their own.

This caused more black flames and more fire vortices to appear.

All of them gathered on Xu Qing’s forehead. After they instantly overlapped, they formed a pitch-black extreme vortex.

As the vortex rotated on Xu Qing’s forehead, West Demon Child’s right hand stretched out.

In his palm was a wisp of his soul!

He activated his final killing move.

This killing move wasn’t killing!

All of his previous words and actions were just to lay the groundwork and confuse his opponent. What he was preparing was this move.

Soul substitute!

To be precise, what he wanted wasn’t to defeat Xu Qing. He didn’t rashly rush back from the battlefield to save face for the Seventeenth Ruler Mountain.

He was doing this for the Nether Flame secret art!

He wanted to take the secret art from Xu Qing.

For anyone else, achieving this would be incredibly difficult. However, his authority was unique. The so-called Demon Spirit Shattering Decay, with its contained slaughter, was merely an expression of the essence of this authority.

This authority had another ability that he hid very deeply. That was the soul substitute.

This was a forced transaction.

He used a wisp of his soul to exchange for the other party’s secret art.

As for this soul, it wouldn’t be controlled by the other party. It would return on its own the instant the transaction was successful.

This was a transaction of the heavenly demon!

However, in this world, things were often relative. When you were plotting against others, others might also be plotting against you.

Just like at this moment, when the vortex on Xu Qing’s forehead rumbled and the West Demon Child held his soul in his right hand, Xu Qing’s closed eyes suddenly opened.

A cold light was revealed!

The authority of the Six Thieves Delusions instantly erupted, enveloping the surroundings. At the same time, the threads of seven emotions and six desires that only Xu Qing could see appeared on the West Demon’s body.

They instantly connected to his body.

The Six Thieves became the path.

This path connected the soul.

Xu Qing’s soul took a step forward in his sea of consciousness and followed this path, directly flying out of his forehead and facing the right hand of the West Demon Child!

There was also a black carving knife surrounding Xu Qing’s soul body.

At this moment, the carving knife slashed, disregarding what transaction or what method the other party had.

With a single slash, the soul in West Devil’s right hand let out a heart-rending cry and instantly split into two.

As for Xu Qing, his attack wasn’t over. His soul carried the knife as it rushed into West Demon Child’s body and into his sea of consciousness.

West Demon Child’s sea of consciousness was vast and filled with black flames. Seven great worlds surrounded it and above the flames sat a heavenly demon holding a spear.

The moment he saw this heavenly demon, Xu Qing’s killing intent was intense. He raised his knife and rushed over.

The heavenly demon suddenly opened its eyes and stood up to take a step down. The spear in its hand erupted with all its might as it resisted Xu Qing’s attack.

The carving knife and spear directly collided.

The carving knife was fine but the spear collapsed and shattered into pieces.

The heavenly demon was also forced back.

Xu Qing was about to chase after it when a sense of danger appeared in his soul.

Behind the retreating heavenly demon, an ancient bell covered in rust was rising. As it swayed, a terrifying power was on the verge of appearing.

Xu Qing’s soul eyes flashed. He didn’t hesitate and retreated.

The moment he left West Demon Child’s sea of consciousness and returned to his body, that terrifying power spread out and erupted in the outside world.

Xu Qing and West Demon Child’s bodies were forced back in the air, widening the distance by a thousand feet.

A thousand feet away, West Demon Child’s expression was ugly. Recalling the danger earlier, he felt his heart palpitate. At that moment, he stared at Xu Qing and coldly spoke.

“You knew my plan long ago!”

Xu Qing’s expression was calm as he calmly spoke.

“Although I don’t know the details, from your previous actions and words, it’s not difficult to guess that it wasn’t a killing method.”

When the West Demon Child heard this, he glanced at Xu Qing. His eyes were sinister as he turned and left.

Xu Qing raised his hand and the void instantly trembled. A storm appeared in front of the West Demon Child, blocking his path.

West Demon Child paused and looked at Xu Qing, his expression turning even more gloomy.

“The three strikes have passed. I said I would spare your life. Do you intend to bring about your own doom?”

Xu Qing shook his head.

“I didn’t say that I would spare your life.”

As he spoke, Xu Qing walked over!

Killing intent erupted..
