With Su Han’s strength, once he puts on the Ghostly Face Mask, he can fight against Great Saints and contend with Quasi-Emperors. To kill him, only a Great Emperor must take action.
And at this moment, somewhere hidden, a certain Great Emperor truly made a move.
The pitch-black spear, ancient yet razor-sharp, exudes an extremely chilling imperial aura, akin to the Nine Serenities Underworld. Upon its appearance, it caused the heavens and earth to freeze, rendering all things stiff.
An unimaginably terrifying aura surged up from the pitch-black spear, enveloping the surroundings with its overwhelming chilly imperial might.
The ground was directly frozen, transformed into a land of ice. Mountains, vegetation, and rivers were all sealed in ice.
Furthermore, many of the Saints currently in battle were turned into ice sculptures, not immediately dead but their physical bodies cold and vitality waning.
“Nine Nether River!”
The black spear turned into a gigantic river of darkness thousands of meters wide, jet-black like ink and flowing endlessly. The waters within it were extremely cold, as if from beneath the Nine Serenities, capable of freezing all souls.
“King Chu Jiang!”
Su Han’s pupils constricted, instantly guessing the identity of the one who struck.
This pitch-black spear and Nine Nether River, Su Han had seen before. It was during the confrontation between the Flying Immortal Great Emperor and King Chu Jiang, where the Flying Immortal Great Emperor cleaved off one of King Chu Jiang’s arms with a single sword.
But while the Flying Immortal Great Emperor could resist, Su Han found it difficult to withstand, after all, this was a direct attack from a Great Emperor, and King Chu Jiang was by no means weak within the Great Emperor Realm.
“Jie Character Secret!”
At this moment, Su Han’s mind was clear, and the continually operating Jie Character Secret was triggered, instantly granting him tenfold combat power.
“Primordial Qi Opening Sky Axe!”
Without hesitation, Su Han used the tenfold combat power from the Jie Character Secret to perform his Origin Technique. Instantly, a majestic Primordial Qi burst forth, condensing into a Heaven-Opening God Axe spanning a thousand meters.
This Origin Technique exhausted all of Su Han’s Demonic Qi, Divine Sense, and Physical Strength, enhanced by the tenfold combat power of the Jie Character Secret. Its power was strong enough to slay even a Quasi-Emperor.
But at this moment, in the face of King Chu Jiang’s assault, Su Han only hoped to survive.
Boom!
At this moment, the pitch-black spear lunged at Su Han, causing mountains and rivers to collapse and the sun and moon to fall in the blink of an eye.
Where the black river flowed, all was encased in ice; nothing could withstand it, even time was frozen.
At this moment, You Mau Great Saint and Eunuch Sun rapidly retreated, no longer continuing the battle, because a Great Emperor had taken action, and they didn’t even have the qualifications to approach.
Rumble!
The black river collided with the Primordial Qi Opening Sky Axe, and a vast energy fluctuation exploded, sweeping across ten thousand miles.
The sky dimmed, clouds extinguished in all directions, countless spatial cracks appeared, and time twisted into clumps.
On the ground, a thousand miles were frozen solid, and no one could escape; Eunuch Sun and others exerted all their strength, opening their domains to barely withstand it. Even so, many Saint Realm observers were frozen into ice sculptures, their vitality gone.
The terrifying waves exploded, obliterating everything within a ten thousand miles range, leaving nothing behind, turning into a land of death.
This is the terror of a Great Emperor, whose actions can destroy heavens and earth, demolishing a realm. Therefore, there is the constraint of the Great Emperor Covenant, lest Great Emperor Realm powerhouses act recklessly, tearing the entire world apart.
Great Name Lake vanished completely, even the pit at the bottom disappeared, because the land was pounded into a depression, with countless ice freezing everything, leveling it to the ground.
“Is the Nineteenth Prince still alive?”
Everyone craned their necks, gazing nervously at the spot where Su Han previously was, eager to know if, under such a powerful strike from King Chu Jiang, the Nineteenth Prince who repeatedly created miracles could survive.
Amidst the destructive waves, a figure collapsed on the ground, instantly drawing everyone’s attention.
The figure was none other than Su Han!
However, at this moment, Su Han was severely injured, with a blood cavity the size of a fist in his abdomen. But no blood flowed out, for it had been directly frozen.
Su Han’s body was covered in frost, like a corpse in the snow, cold and stiff. Yet he was still alive, holding onto a breath, not truly dead yet.
The tenfold combat power of the Jie Character Secret, coupled with the full force of Primordial Qi, though unable to block King Chu Jiang’s spear completely, consumed a substantial amount of energy, allowing Su Han to cling onto life.
However, Su Han was now empty within, severely injured, and barely hanging on, even though he wasn’t dead, he was very close to it.
“Secret of Healer!”
As soon as Su Han regained consciousness, he immediately activated the Secret of Healer, one of the Nine Secrets, causing the frost on his body to melt and his wounds to rapidly recover.
In the next moment, he retrieved the remaining Life Spring Water and the Medicine Saint from the Bronze Ring, which he had brought from the Heavenly Medicine Blessed Land, directly consumed them, quickly refining them.
These were supreme treasures for healing, and upon consumption, abundant medicinal power spread within his body, aiding his recovery, causing the fist-sized blood cavity in his abdomen to heal at a visible speed.
Ultimately, Su Han’s body fully recovered, but his Demonic Qi and Divine Sense were exhausted; he survived, but he was no longer capable of battle.
“Oh, he’s not dead!”
A soft exclamation resounded from the void. A figure dressed in a black robe with golden patterns and wearing a fearsome mask stood in the void. Though not tall, he was as imposing as a great river, leaving an awe-inspiring impression.
He stood not in the real space but in the void, unaffected by the spatial storms and chaotic currents around him.
At this moment, the pitch-black spear returned to his hand, the spear as river and dragon, imposing an enormous pressure, eerily resembling the arrival of the Grim Reaper.
“King Chu Jiang!”
At this juncture, others too recognized King Chu Jiang’s identity, revealing expressions of shock.
Among the Ten Great Yama Kings of King Yama’s Palace, King Chu Jiang ranked second, and he had come, even making an attempt on Su Han’s life.
The New Demon-Slaying Alliance’s determination to kill this time was too strong, strong enough for King Chu Jiang to break the Great Emperor Covenant to try and kill Su Han.
At this moment, Eunuch Sun, You Mau Great Saint, and others stood aside. Though they were powerful, in front of a Great Emperor, they were still like ants, vulnerable.
Even though Eunuch Sun was extremely anxious and willing to sacrifice himself, King Chu Jiang’s imperial might suppressed him, making him unable to move.
“You avoided death from one strike; indeed, you’re a genius. But can you withstand a second strike from me?”
King Chu Jiang smiled faintly, then the pitch-black spear thrust out again, but this time Su Han had neither the Jie Character Secret nor the Origin Technique to resist.
Clang!
A sharp sword light suddenly appeared, blocking King Chu Jiang’s pitch-black spear.
At the same time, a figure appeared in front of Su Han.
It was none other than the Flying Immortal Great Emperor!
