102: Chapter 102 The True Form of the Bizarre Creature

"The Power of Slaughter!"

A flicker of doubt flashed in Zhongli Xue's eyes. "You are but a piece of livestock being raised in a pen, so why are you able to comprehend the Dao of Slaughter?"

"But this is for the best. Once I seize your body, I will be able to control this Dao of Slaughter as well."

Abruptly, strands of eerie power pierced through space and descended upon Chu Chen.

In an instant, they permeated Chu Chen's body, and this eerie power began to relentlessly corrode his physical form.

In that moment, Chu Chen felt a tearing pain in his divine soul, as if he were being forcibly evicted from his own body.

The next moment, a dazzling golden character for 'Life' manifested between Chu Chen's brows.

It expelled the eerie power from within his body.

Immediately after, a brilliant and eye-catching golden light shot out from the golden 'Life' character.

In an instant, the surrounding power of heaven and earth seemed to be drawn in by an invisible force, converging toward the golden light.

It converged into a massive golden cage, tightly enveloping Zhongli Xue within.

Currently inside the golden cage, under the shine of the golden light, wisps of black gas began to rise from Zhongli Xue's body.

These black auras struggled incessantly, seemingly trying to break free from the constraints of the golden cage.

Zhongli Xue's expression was now unsightly, and her body was actually twisting together in an eerie state.

Then, an extremely evil and sinister voice rang out: "I didn't expect Jinwu to actually fuse this thing into your body."

"How laughable, that a demonic cultivator could actually carry a Great Dao Recording."

"I miscalculated this time, but next time, I will definitely seize this body of yours."

As the words fell, blood-red clouds gathered in the sky, and a crimson light instantly poured down.

It blasted a gap in the golden cage, and Zhongli Xue seized the opportunity as her body began to turn illusory, heading toward that gap.

"You think you can just come and go as you please?!"

Chu Chen's eyes contained endless killing intent, and his figure instantly arrived above the gap.

A blue light, accompanied by a supreme aura, radiated from Chu Chen's body.

In an instant, the flow of time in this world was affected; everything began to move backward, and the blood clouds in the sky dissipated.

Zhongli Xue also returned to the moment when she was being suppressed by the golden cage.

At this moment, Chu Chen's face was pale; what he had just displayed was the Power of Time Reversal from the Great Dao of Time.

Even though Chu Chen was now at the fifth level of the Saint Realm, he could only go back five seconds, but that was enough.

At this time, Zhongli Xue was repeating her previous words.

"I miscalculated this time, but next time, I will definitely seize this body of yours."

As the words fell, blood clouds gathered in the sky.

Everything except Chu Chen had been reversed; only he knew exactly what had happened.

However, how could he let Zhongli Xue succeed again this time?

With a roar, Demonic Power, the Power of Slaughter, and Indestructible Sword Intent—three terrifying forces—converged together.

They were all infused into the ten thousand demons immortal devouring sword, and a terrifying aura radiated from the sword.

With just a sliver of it, the space around Chu Chen collapsed, and the void reorganized into nothingness.

Even in the eyes of Zhongli Xue within the golden cage, there was now a hint of astonishment.

*Swish!*

In the next moment, without a second thought, Chu Chen slashed that peerless sword strike toward the heavens.

Instantly, the blood clouds in the sky dissipated, and a vast sword scar was carved into the firmament, unable to heal for a long time.

"You... you know what I was going to do," Zhongli Xue's extremely evil and cold voice said to Chu Chen.

Chu Chen did not answer and immediately summoned the ten thousand soul banner.

In an instant, it enveloped this world, and the Demon God Slaughter Array was immediately activated.

Twelve demonic shadows at the Saint Realm manifested around Chu Chen.

"Today, I will absolutely not let you leave."

Chu Chen's cold voice rang out. The 'Life' character from the Great Dao Recording could be used by him three times.

Chu Chen prepared to use it once more to completely obliterate the eerie thing before him and eliminate the future trouble forever.

With a thought from Chu Chen, that golden 'Life' character manifested once again from between his brows.

This time, the golden 'Life' character pressed down directly toward Zhongli Xue.

The twelve demonic shadows followed closely behind, charging toward Zhongli Xue to kill her.

"You want to completely obliterate me here?" Zhongli Xue looked at Chu Chen with a somewhat surprised gaze.

"It seems Jinwu didn't tell you that the Great Dao Recording can at most seal me, but it cannot kill me."

"Moreover, even when Jinwu personally controlled the Great Dao Recording, he couldn't kill me, let alone a mere Saint Realm cultivator like you."

As Zhongli Xue's voice fell, a massive black eye, like an abyss, abruptly opened behind her.

In an instant, an irresistible force radiated from the Abyssal Giant Eye.

The moment this power appeared, this world instantly turned into a void, leaving only Chu Chen and Zhongli Xue.

However, at this moment, Chu Chen saw an extremely shocking scene.

In this void, a giant beast whose complete body could not be seen appeared behind Zhongli Xue.

Specifically, those Abyssal Giant Eyes were exactly the same as the one Zhongli Xue had summoned.

Except, these Abyssal Giant Eyes were countless times larger than the previous one. If one were to truly compare, Chu Chen felt that just one of these eyes was already as large as the entire Xuan Province.

"What on earth are you?" Chu Chen asked in a heavy voice.

"Livestock in a pen, you are fortunate to see my true form; even Jinwu has never seen my true form."

"If it weren't for the fact that I can only exert less than one-ten-thousandth of my strength right now, I could blow apart the Small World you are in with a single breath."

"But you have also surprised me enough. The Power of Slaughter and the ultimate Demonic Power..."

"These two types of power are top-tier existences even in this plane."

"After I seize your body, I will naturally be able to recover my strength quickly. At that time, I can summon my true form and devour the Small World you are in, as well as this entire plane."

After Zhongli Xue finished speaking, the scene returned to before, but Zhongli Xue's figure had already long since disappeared.

What kind of existence was this eerie thing? And the aura permeating from that giant beast gave Chu Chen the feeling that it reigned supreme over everything.

Even when he had faced Great Emperor Jinwu back then, he hadn't had such a feeling.

Even if that was only a sliver of Great Emperor Jinwu's imperial will, it was enough to show how terrifying that giant beast was.

He was still too weak. That eerie thing would definitely come looking for him again.

And the Great Dao Recording could only be used one last time; he had to increase his strength quickly.

At the very least, he needed to have the power to protect himself before that eerie thing.

Chu Chen retracted the ten thousand soul banner, opened the exit to the Small World, and brought Liu Xianer out.

Then, the space in front of him instantly tore open, and he prepared to take Liu Xianer inside.

*Boom!*

An incredibly terrifying battle saber shattered the space and arrived instantly in front of Chu Chen.

A powerful force burst forth from the battle saber.

In an instant, dozens of figures appeared, surrounding Chu Chen and Liu Xianer so tightly that not even water could leak through.

"Chu Chen, hand over our clan's Holy Maiden, otherwise, today shall be your burial place!"
