Chapter 1161: An Existence Beyond Saint Emperor
The clouds of Baleful Yin Force quickly rolled toward everyone . They reached where they were standing very soon .
Rui Jin had just broken free, so he had not started to run . The Baleful Yin Force was extremely close to him already, less than a hundred meters away and the distance was rapidly decreasing .
Rui Jin’s face abruptly changed . The Baleful Yin Force had yet to enter his soul, but his soul was already feeling a violent, stabbing pain . He also felt extremely dizzy . The Baleful Yin Force was so powerful that even Rui Jin struggled to endure it .
Rui Jin became extremely stern . He was filled with shock . As a Golden Divine Dragon, he was the king of dragons . He possessed a natural advantage of an extremely powerful body and soul . The Baleful Yin Force had not even reached him, yet it was already affecting his soul this much . He found this difficult to accept .
The origin energy bead appeared above his head and shined with a hazy light, coating his body . It protected his soul, and with its assistance, the discomfort of his soul was immediately purged .
The bead was a treasure that could block all attacks targeting the soul . The Baleful Yin Force, was powerful but clearly it was not enough to break through the treasure’s defenses .
Rui Jin’s eyes flickered with a golden light . He stared at the huge skeleton hidden within the Baleful Yin Force before quickly arriving in front of Jian Chen . He stood with Hong Lian and Hei Yu .
“What’s up with this skeleton?” Rui Jin gruffly asked . He had been trapped in Mo Tianyun’s hand earlier, isolating him from the outside world . As a result, he had no idea what had just happened .
“It appeared suddenly . No one knows why, but it’s an enemy,” Hong Lian explained in a heavy voice .
“The Baleful Yin Force is very terrifying . No one among the humans can withstand it . If they get caught in it, they’ll die for sure . We better leave here quickly before anyone notices . I suddenly feel like the Death Nest is much more complicated than it seems,” Hei Yu said with a frown . He was stern .
All the human Saint Kings were rapidly retreating . They avoided the Baleful Yin Force . The horror of the Baleful Yin Force had scared many people witless, and only a few of them were still thinking about the Saints’ Fruit .
“Xiang’er, we can’t stay here . Let’s leave quickly . ” Changyang Qing Yun suddenly appeared by Jian Chen’s side and warmly spoke in concern .
Jian Chen frowned slightly as a sliver of undetectable coldness flashed through his eyes . He did not pay any attention to Changyang Qing Yun, directly ignoring him .
Changyang Qing Yun had used the time when he was removing Huang Luan’s ancient secret technique to plant another one of his own . His actions made Jian Chen extremely furious inside, and he had already begun to treat Changyang Qing Yun as an enemy .
“Let’s go!” Rui Jin growled before grabbing Jian Chen’s arm and retreating to the outskirts .
The Baleful Yin Force spread very quickly, but it was still slower than the speed at which the Saint Kings could fly . With their retreat, they immediately pulled far away from the Baleful Yin Force . They were just about to leave the third zone of the Death Nest .
At this moment, the blood-red skeleton roared at the sky . There was no sound, but a visible ripple expanded into the surroundings . Every single bone on its body churned with endless amounts of Baleful Yin Force, actually causing the mist to clump together . It seemed to have become a sea of blood .
Copious amounts of Baleful Yin Force surged into the ground, causing the blood-red soil to become even brighter . At the same time, the ground began to shine with a faint, red glow .
The third layer of formations in the Death Nest was originally only used to separate the vile energies between the two zones . It could not obstruct the entry and exit of people, but it was suddenly activated at that moment . It formed a layer of red mist that surrounded the third zone, preventing any human experts from leaving .
“How is this possible? The skeleton can actually control the formations here . Weren’t they cast down by Mo Tianyun all those years ago? How can it control them at will?”
“Looks like this skeleton has already developed a basic form of intelligence . It is much more complex than it seems . It’s using Baleful Yun Force to activate these formations, or maybe using the formations to allow the Baleful Yin Force to gain another wondrous effect . ”
“We can’t leave . Everyone work together to smash the formation together . ”
Many Saint Kings immediately launched powerful attacks at the formation . However, it had been cast down by Mo Tianyun all those years ago . Even after countless years, it remained as powerful as before . It was not something a group of Saint Kings could smash through, so the formation did not even budge no matter how hard they struck it .
Rui Jin, Hong Lian, and Hei Yu struck out as well . They used their origin energy treasures to attack the formation in unison, but their attacks only made it shake . It was not enough to break through .
The ground shook constantly as the skeleton approached them all, step by step . Its feet were like mountains, and every time a foot fell, the ground would violently shake . The dense Baleful Yin Force would roll over from in front, getting nearer and nearer to all of them .
All the humans fell into a panic . The Baleful Yin Force was basically the grim reaper’s scythe to them . It could ignore any Saint Force defenses and injure the souls of people . Even though many of them knew ancient secret techniques, they possessed no methods of dealing with the Baleful Yin Force .
“Are we all really going to die today?” Someone wailed . He could already taste regret .
“God dammit, how did this skeleton appear here? Why has it never appeared in countless years, and why does it have to suddenly appear in this age when there is a lack of Saint Emperors?” Some experts of the protector clans were confused and filled with questions . The appearance of the skeleton had become a mystery to all of them .
Jian Chen also became unprecedentedly grim . He stared at the blood-red mist up ahead and said, “These people can’t all die here . The Tian Yuan Continent cannot sustain a loss like this . Seniors, are you able to destroy this skeleton?”
“The Baleful Yin Force does not affect us, so we can try,” said Rui Jin . Afterward, he went up with Hong Lian and Hei Yu to fight the skeleton together .
But the power of the skeleton was far beyond anyone’s expectations . The three of them attacked the skeleton using their origin energy weapons, but all that was left behind was a shallow mark . The attacks that were powerful enough to harm Saint Emperors could not even break one of the skeleton’s bones .
At this moment, a red light flashed by . A huge, bone club had appeared in the skeleton’s hands at some point, sweeping toward Rui Jin and the others .
Bang! Bang! Bang!
With three muffled sounds, the three of them were blown away by the skeleton’s swing . Their origin energy armor had dulled as well .
All the experts present became utterly stunned by what had just happened . All of their mouths hung agape as disbelief flooded their faces .
They understood the three magical beasts’ strength extremely well . They possessed the power to rival Saint Emperors, yet they could not even withstand a single blow from the skeleton .
“It’s beyond a Saint Emperor . The skeleton already possesses strength at the level of the four champions from ancient times,” a great elder of a protector clan cried out . His voice trembled as horror filled him .
With that, everyone paled . Despair filled all of their eyes .
