Chapter 929: Baleful Yin Force

The three groups did not begin fighting . They stood at the entrance to the ninth floor at the same time, examining it before continuing onward . Each person was filled with vigilance; not only did they have to guard against the dangers from the hall, they also needed to guard against everyone else . No one dared to be careless .

They climbed the long staircase and finally arrived on the ninth floor . However, they all became dumbfounded as it was not a majestic hall like they had imagined . Instead, there were nine dark tunnels that led off to who knows where .

Everyone could not help but come to a stop . They stared at the dark tunnel with frowns, while lights flickered in their eyes . This had completely exceeded their expectations .

“Can we only reach the true ninth floor by passing through these tunnels?” An old man from the third group guessed .

Jian Chen grimly scanned all nine tunnels, before fully expanding his presence . He wanted to see what was inside each one .

However, Jian Chen’s presence suffered even greater suppressions here . He could only expand it to a radius of less than a hundred meters of his sight .

“We’ve already come here . There’s no path back now . It doesn’t matter whether you want the legacy or you want to leave, you all need to advance past the ninth floor . Nubis, let’s choose a tunnel,” Jian Chen said gruffly .

Nubis nodded . “That’s all we can do now that everything’s like this . ”

Soon afterward, Jian Chen casually chose a tunnel and left with Nubis and the three other people that followed them .

As Jian Chen’s group disappeared down a tunnel, the two other groups also chose their own . Their groups remained together without separating .

The tunnels seemed like bottlenecks—although their entrances were not very big, they contained something entirely different . Jian Chen’s group actually arrived in a huge space after passing through their tunnel . The space was circular and about a kilometer wide .

Nine huge pillars stood in the surroundings . They were completely red and glowed with a demonic red light, spinning around the empty space .

Boom!

Suddenly, the huge stone door behind them slammed close with a rumble . The stone door was made of the same material as the door of the treasury on the second floor so it was terrifyingly tough .

Their hearts all sank, they all felt an ill omen .

Suddenly, a powerful energy began to ripple . The surrounding stone pillars began to shine with dazzling streaks of light that crossed mid-air . It formed a blood-red barrier around the entire region; there was no other color except red . It made them feel like they had entered another space .

“This is an extremely powerful formation and it’s a killing formation,” growled Nubis . He was extremely stern . His hands immediately became golden as he made preparations for battle .

Jian Chen also became grim . The King Armament was already in his hands . He could feel the terror of this killing formation . From its influence alone, he could tell that it had far exceeded the power of any formation on the eighth floor .

Suddenly, they heard a wave break . In the air, a red ocean descended as if it was completely composed of blood, turning the space into a sea of blood .

The liquid constantly churned, tossed, and turned . It was like the tempestuous sea . Jian Chen and the others could even hear the howls of countless vengeful spirits . They formed horrendous ghostly faces, biting at the group with their bloody mouths . It was hair-raising .

A faint layer of bloody mist floated slowly toward them, quickly enveloping them . The bloody mist could injure their souls . It immediately invaded their minds as soon as they drew close and caught them off-guard .

They immediately experienced a sharp pain in their heads and their heads began to whirl . Their minds had become slightly clouded now .  

“This is Baleful Yin Force!” Jian Chen cried out . He was filled with disbelief . It was actually completely the same as the Baleful Yin Force he felt from the four protectors of the Bloodsword sect .

Jian Chen had come to an understanding toward the Baleful Yin Force on the Tian Yuan Continent . Apparently, it was a special energy formed from slaughter and no one could use this energy other than the Bloodsword sect of the three great assassination organizations .

Baleful Yin Force could affect the consciousness of people . There was no way to defend against it; the only choice a victim had was to endure it . It was said that if the Baleful Yin Force was powerful enough, it could directly disperse the souls of its victim . It was extremely powerful .

“Baleful Yin Force is only cultivated by the assassins of the Bloodsword sect . Why would it be here?” Jian Chen constantly asked himself . He was greatly perturbed . After all, this was the Octoterra Divine Hall, the place where the Octoterra Emperor used to live . Yet, there was actually Baleful Yin Force in the formations here . Perhaps the Octoterra Emperor also possessed this power?

Fortunately, the Baleful Yin Force was not powerful enough to disperse their souls directly . At most, it would only affect them slightly and cut away some of their strength .

Suddenly, the sea of blood began to churn even more violently . It slowly formed a blood-red, hundred-meter-tall giant who possessed a great, imposing manner .

The giant’s face was unclear but as it stood there, it seemed to be reaching from the earth to the heavens . It radiated with a great pressure as if it was God .

At this moment, the giant moved . He extended a finger toward Jian Chen’s finger . With that, the giant’s arm constantly grew longer while the finger itself expanded in size . It grew to several hundred meters in length, before shooting toward them .

Jian Chen’s King Armament radiated with a dark light as energy filled the entire space with devastating aura . Nubis’ hands glowed with a dazzling goldenly light, while powerful energy constantly churned . Mo Ji and the other two had all pulled out their weapons as well . No one held anything back, striking the huge finger together with their most powerful attacks .

Boom!

The attacks from the five collided with the giant’s finger . Violent energy erupted, wreaking havoc in the entire space .

The giant’s finger paused slightly and came to a halt . Everyone flew backward without exception and became pale . Nubis and the others even vomited blood violently, now heavily injured . Meanwhile, some blood flowed from the corner of Jian Chen’s lips, he was heavily wounded as well .

The five of them shot back by several dozen meters before colliding with the edge of the barrier . Blood immediately spurted violently from their mouths again .

Jian Chen climbed to his feet with a leap and stared at the blood-red giant in astoundment . He was extremely stern .

The giant’s strength had far exceeded what they anticipated . Jian Chen was certain that it was at least at the Fifth Heavenly Layer of Saint King or even the Sixth . It definitely was not something they could deal with .

“God dammit . This formation is too powerful . It actually materialized such a powerful thing . How do we fight it?” Nubis stood up as he swore, immediately pulling out a large handful of Class 6 Radiant Spirit Pills and wolfing them down .

Mo Ji and the other two pulled out jade bottles from their Space Rings . A jade-green pill rolled out from their bottles at the same time and they took it as they winced in pain .

Their pills were clearly much more powerful than the Radiant Spirit Pills . Their complexions immediately took a turn for the better with unbelievable speed, they were actually healing much faster than Nubis .

A vast pressure appeared from ahead and the red giant began to move once again . Its finger shot toward them with a terrifying force just like before .

Despair filled the eyes of Mo Ji and the three others . The giant was just too powerful; they could not fend off a second strike right now as they were still injured .

Jian Chen stared fixedly at the giant finger as it rapidly drew closer . Suddenly, a golden streak of light shot from the center of his forehead and the saint artifact appeared in his hand . He immediately opened an entry to it and a towering sword Qi radiated from within . The Emperor Armament which was trapped inside flew out, colliding with the finger as soon as it appeared .

With a boom, the giant finger was destroyed by the Emperor Armament’s attack . It scattered into the sea of blood . However, in the next moment, most of the blood flowed toward the giant . It fused into the giant’s body .

The giant’s arm regrew . In that moment, its attention became focused on the Emperor Armament and its giant red hand directly grabbed at it .

The Emperor Armament raged . It radiated a powerful sword Qi radiated and chopped off the giant’s hand mid-air .

However, the giant was indestructible . Its missing limb immediately transformed into a pool of blood and fused with its body, allowing it to be regrown .

“I hope the Emperor Armament can destroy the blood giant . ” Nubis was elated . The flames of hope seemed to be ignited within him and the others .

The Emperor Armament, however, surprised them with what it did next . It did not bother with the blood giant anymore, directly flying to the edge of the formation and chopping at the space there . It carved a huge gap, before fleeing through it .

The five of them were stunned but they soon returned to their senses . They charged at the gap, pushing their speeds to the utmost limits .

With the help of his secret techniques, Nubis charged in front . He was the first one to leave, followed by Mo Ji’s trio . Jian Chen had been relatively further from the gap, so he was last .
