YM778.TV Chapter 639: Beheading
After having brought the mammoth to its knees, Tang Jie grabbed its trunk again and threw the mammoth at the Venomheart King. "Fuck your Peerless Heaven Claw!"
This sudden strike sent the Venomheart King flying. But while its head was thrown back and it threw up blood, it thrust a claw at Tang Jie. Tang Jie instantly felt a huge danger approaching, and he raised the axe to block in front of him.
A blast of sharp finger energy deformed the axe and continued forward, slamming into Tang Jie\'s chest. It went right through him, punching five holes in his heart. Finally, the eyes of the Venomheart King glinted as it waved its left hand and shouted, "Go!"
The last Skyshaker howled and stabbed its sharp horn into Tang Jie\'s back.
Tang Jie roared and punched out with his right fist.
Devil Crushing Fist!
This punch blew apart the Skyshaker\'s head.
Tang Jie staggered back several steps with another large hole in his body.
This string of battles, all the twists and turns, had gone by at a dizzying pace, and they were also extremely bitter and fraught.
The three Skyshakers were all dead, and the Venomheart King wasn\'t in a much better state. It had been rammed into by the Colossus King, and then it had forcibly used the Peerless Heaven Claw, suffering a backlash. Finally, it had used Divine Will to control the Skyshaker, which had been mentally taxing. It fell from the sky and struggled to get back up.
As for Tang Jie, his injuries had grown more serious. Not even considering all the stomping he had suffered, he had been stabbed by the horns of two Skyshakers. These horns were like giant pillars, and the two of them had basically hollowed Tang Jie out. And there was the Venomheart King\'s Peerless Heaven Claw. Even though it had been used in a hurry, it was still absurdly powerful. Putting aside its piercing power, it could be unleashed from a distance and controlled from a distance, allowing it to pierce through his heart. Even with his tough body, it was hard to endure such an attack. In a rare sight, Tang Jie was forced to use a divine medicine. The Dao of Life took life force, and he wouldn\'t use it unless the situation was dire.
The only one who was fine was the Colossus King.
Even after taking that elbow from Tang Jie and then being thrown out, it still seemed okay. Shaking its head, it emerged from the fresh crater and glared at Tang Jie. "You dare trick me!"
It howled, two more tusks shooting out while its snout smashed down at Tang Jie.
It no longer feared Tang Jie grabbing its trunk, as Tang Jie was clearly too injured for that.
Sure enough, Tang Jie didn\'t take on this offensive directly, instead dodging to the right.
The Colossus King said in delight, "Even you have days like this!"
It jumped up, hurling its huge body at Tang Jie. "Let\'s see how you deal with this!"
Looking up at that descending mammoth, Tang Jie snorted and said, "I have plenty of ways, but I\'m afraid you won\'t be able to last long enough to see them all!"
He was in the middle of recovering and had also just used the Devil Crushing Fist, so he was short of strength, yet he didn\'t panic in the face of the falling Colossus King, simply extending his right hand and snapping his fingers.
A mighty roar came from the earth, and a giant fissure opened up. Countless black vines emerged from it, shooting up into the sky and coiling around the Colossus King like snakes—Black Sin had arrived.
While Tang Jie had been fighting down below, up on the walls, Yiyi had summoned Black Sin long ago. It was just that she had kept it hidden this whole time, waiting for a moment to catch the Colossus King by surprise. Now, no matter how the Colossus King bellowed, the vines continued to pull it down. While it was constantly breaking the vines, more vines poured out of the chasm, binding it tightly. Black Sin had been waiting for a very long time for this moment, and there was no way it was letting the Colossus King escape.
As it was about to be pulled into the abyss, the Colossus King roared, "Devilbane Lock, come out!"
As it roared, it spat out a giant stone lock, which flew into the sky and began to radiate multicolored light as it expanded and slowly descended.
"The Devilbane Lock! It\'s the Devilbane Lock!" Everyone in Dongjin Pass was in an uproar.
The fiends weren\'t creators, and they weren\'t very proficient in fields like pills, talismans, formations, and tools, which was where fiends were the most inferior to humans, and it was one of the reasons they didn\'t use many treasures in battle. But while they couldn\'t create, they could take. There were always some human cultivators who fell in battle, and the fiends took their treasures and refined them for their own use.
The Devilbane Lock had been the treasure of a powerful human cultivator. After his death in battle, the Colossus King had taken it and refined it, regarding it as a precious valuable that it was not willing to show to others.
As the Devilbane Lock appeared, it filled the world with its majestic power, making everyone want to prostrate to it. It had the power to seal and suppress all things.
Down below in the chasm, Black Sin shrieked, and all of its vines retreated. A moment later, it dissipated with a bang, and Yiyi turned ghastly pale and threw up blood.
This was the first time Black Sin had failed at its task and backlashed onto its master!
"Be careful! The Devilbane Lock is an item that suppresses all evil things in the world!" General Gu shouted.
Black Sin was an evil creature, so it was naturally suppressed by the Devilbane Lock, and the result was not surprising. As for fiends, they weren\'t actually evil creatures. "Evil" and "righteous" depended on the path one cultivated, and fiends did not innately belong to the evil path. The difference between them and humans was one of race, not morality.
Tang Jie rolled his eyes. "You said it too late."
He then looked at the Colossus King. "You want to compete with me in treasure? Fine!"
He threw the Treasure Cosmos Formation diagram into the air.
Countless beams of treasure light fell on the Colossus King. They first fell on the Devilbane Lock, and while this lock was extremely powerful and was further empowered by the Colossus King, it was no match for the combined might of all these treasures. As the treasure lights swept over it, the lock lost all its light and dropped to the ground. The treasure lights then illuminated the Colossus King, who was instantly blasted to the earth. Its body melted away like snow, and it let out a wail of unprecedented fear.
It wasn\'t dead primarily because it had a powerful vitality and because the Treasure Cosmos Formation was more of a wide-area attack, and it was difficult to concentrate its power. After a few moments of focused attack, its power began to disperse, bringing calamity upon the smaller fiends in the area. The addition of the Whitebrow King and Ghostface King had originally greatly increased the pressure on Dongjin Pass, and the losses had been starting to climb, but as the treasures let out their light, the fiends began to die in swaths. The one Treasure Cosmos Formation killed thousands of fiends, striking fear into the survivors\' hearts.
Tang Jie waved his hand, calling the Devilbane Lock to him. Smiling, he said, "Another fine treasure."
With a stroke of his hand, he wiped away the brand on the lock. At this time, the Treasure Cosmos Formation finished unleashing its might and returned to the formation diagram, which fell to the ground. Tang Jie grabbed it, took out an art relic and destroyed it, and then put the lock in. In this way, the formation went from sixteen to seventeen divine treasures, and he hadn\'t even put in treasures like the Herding Yang Pearl or the lotus lamp.
The Colossus King threw up blood at this sight.
This was a divine treasure! The Colossus King had expended much effort to acquire it, but now, Tang Jie had taken it away, and it couldn\'t help but shout, "You thief!"
"Ah, I wonder if the Heaven Swallowing King or Venomheart King have any treasures." Ignoring it, Tang Jie put away the diagram and looked at the nearby Venomheart King.
His intent was obvious.
The just-recovered Venomheart King trembled and shouted, "Colossus, hold him off so that I can burn my Divine Soul and slay him with the Godking Whip! This time, you had better not take his bait!"
Burning one\'s Divine Soul to use a divine treasure would greatly increase its power. It was clear that the Venomheart King was going all-out.
"Understood!" The Colossus King staggered back up, intending to fight to the very end.
Tang Jie sneered. "A fool who only knows how to be used by others, wasting your life to cover someone else\'s retreat."
The Colossus King shouted, "Don\'t even try that again! I won\'t be falling for it this time!"
Tang Jie shook his head and pointed behind it. "I\'m telling the truth this time. He\'s already run off, using you to cover his retreat."
The Colossus King continued to stare at Tang Jie.
Tang Jie helplessly smiled. "Alright, it\'s your choice to believe me or not. If you have the guts, just keep on waiting and don\'t look back."
Tang Jie folded his arms and waited. His injuries still weren\'t healed, and this was the perfect opportunity to recover.
The Colossus King\'s mind was shaken. Clenching its teeth, it said to itself, I can\'t believe this scammer!
But after a few moments, when there was still nothing happening behind it, it finally began to get afraid.
Why wasn\'t the Venomheart King done yet?
An irrepressible thought welled up, and the Colossus King slowly turned its head.
It turned very slowly.
It was afraid that Tang Jie would suddenly attack, but it was also hoping that the Godking Whip would appear and slay this bastard.
But when it saw what was behind it, it was dumbfounded.
There was nothing behind it! The Venomheart King was gone, a distant multicolored light moving away like a lightning bolt.
This bastard!
It had abandoned him and run off!
Dogshit \'burning Divine Soul\'!
Dogshit \'Godking Whip\'!
This shameless, vulgar, obscene, wicked bastard! It had run off to save its own hide!
"NOOO!" the Colossus King howled.
A dazzling beam of sword energy appeared behind the Colossus King.
The Colossus King froze, and then its large elephantine head slid from its neck, blood gushing out from the wound and drenching Tang Jie\'s body.
The head rolled up to Tang Jie\'s side, its eyes still open and staring at Tang Jie in disbelief.
"I warned you not to look back," Tang Jie coldly said, stomping on the head.
Pa!
The elephantine head splattered.
