Chapter 159: Chapter 98: Young Hegemon (Part 2)

Cyan Mountain groveled beneath his feet.

Rivers and streams receded before him.

The Yaksha Ghost stood in the air, treading upon black mist. It stared at Su Chen, formed an esoteric Dharma Seal, and uttered its first words.

"I curse you! May your eyes see no light!"

And so it was.

Before Su Chen’s eyes, the world went dark!

"I curse you! May your soul be fractured and broken, your body brought to the brink of death!"

And so it was.

Su Chen’s movements slowed as pieces of his soul threatened to tear away from his body.

’That’s the Ten Extremes Skill!’

’The Three Words Curse Technique!’

’Another successor of the Ten Extremes Skill...’

Grandmasters from the Celestial Alliance watched the battle from afar in the Imperial City. However, with the swirling black mist and the blanketing snow, they could not see the situation clearly.

But there was no mistaking the aura of the Ten Extremes Skill.

At this, they couldn’t help but sigh.

’Back in the Great Yu era, Ning Ye was a High Tier Qi Cultivation Immortal, firmly on the Seventh Layer of the Immortal Path. Today, he is far beyond what even Emperor Jie could compare to.’

’And now he has also obtained the Ten Extremes Skill.’

’He degenerated into a corpse, his soul becoming like a ghost’s. After being tempered in the Earth Veins for three hundred years, he’s now a being comparable to an Innate Great Demon Fiend...’

’How can the Wind Snow Sword Immortal possibly be his match?’

Tonight, the Wind Snow Sword Immortal had met his match. He was finished.

"Hahaha!"

"Witness my third curse!"

Ning Ye laughed with triumph.

BOOM!

A sinister wind howled, carrying waves of a putrid stench.

"I curse you! May you grow decrepit with age and meet your final day!"

This was the third curse.

And it was the strongest!

Even someone in the Innate Realm would age to death on the spot.

BOOM!

An invisible power descended upon Su Chen.

One breath passed.

Three breaths passed.

After a long while, the Ghostly Realm, shrouded in sinister winds, had completely devoured the snow-covered Cyan Mountain. Yet, the third curse still showed no effect.

Su Chen still had the face of a young man.

His long hair was jet-black.

The power of this third curse from the Ten Extremes Skill washed over Su Chen like a gentle breeze, unable to affect even a fraction of his lifespan.

All mortals will eventually die, but he alone possessed Longevity.

A mere Ten Extremes Skill.

How could it possibly shake his Longevity Dao Seed, which was inviolable through all eternity?

’The third curse failed?’

’No.’

’I successfully cast it!’

Ning Ye was stunned.

BOOM!

In the next instant, a terrifying backlash struck him.

It wasn’t just the third curse.

The first two also imploded violently.

The Ten Extremes Skill!

His Ten Extremes Skill!

He had nearly reached the peak of its mastery.

With his level as a High Tier Qi Cultivation Immortal and his five-hundred-year foundation, he actually couldn’t kill a mere mortal cultivator?

How was this possible!

’Could he be in the Innate Realm? Or is he a powerful Innate who achieved it by devouring the Mountain River Dragon Qi?’

’No.’

’What in the world is going on?’

"You have no Innate Qi in your body, so you’re not an Innate. Why can’t I kill you even with the Immortal Dao Ten Extremes Skill?"

Ning Ye was horrified beyond belief.

For some reason, an immense terror welled up in his heart.

Not even back then, in the Imperial Mausoleum, when he faced the slumbering Great Yu Sword Immortal, had he ever felt such fear.

A powerful intuition told him:

Do not let Su Chen draw his sword!

Otherwise, no one in the world could save him!

"No!"

Ning Ye roared.

At this moment, he cast all else aside. Taking advantage of the lingering effects of the Ten Extremes Skill, he leaped ten miles, shattering Cyan Mountain underfoot. His hand, comparable to that of an Upper-Rank Great Demon, shot out to twist off Su Chen’s head.

"Die!"

he roared.

At his touch, a peak of Cyan Mountain thousands of feet tall was wiped from existence.

The very earth caved in.

Ten miles away,

the Imperial City itself was shaking as if from an earthquake!

The distant Jinjiang City, and even cities farther away, could feel the tremors that shook the mountains and rivers.

A peerless powerhouse was making a move!

’The Wind Snow Sword Immortal has fallen.’

’The grand tide of events...’

’...is not something that can be stopped by human power.’

’Not even if you are the Wind Snow Sword Immortal.’

Inside his war chariot, Sikong, the Vermilion Seal Master, gazed at the world enveloped in black mist. He shook his head with a look of waning interest, then took a cup of wine and poured it onto the ground as if in tribute to the deceased Su Chen.

However, regarding this battle...

The Celestial Alliance was paying attention.

Demon Mountain watched from afar.

From the Great Yu Imperial Mausoleum, the Immortals mocked the foolishness of a later-generation cultivator who didn’t know the difference between life and death.

But the true Human Giants,

the Peak Climbers who stood at the apex of the Human World, without exception, paid this battle no mind. Not even the heavens above cast down the slightest sliver of a gaze.

They knew.

The Wind Snow Sword Immortal would not fall!

If he fell,

he wouldn’t be the Wind Snow Sword Immortal.

From the very beginning, the one who didn’t know the difference between life and death was Ning Ye.

After all,

the last person who angered the heavens and dared to touch All Living Beings’ Fortune was named the Great Yu Immortal Ancestor—a Heavenly Fall Immortal whom even the Peak Climbers had to look up to.

’Is he dead?’

"Hahaha!"

"He must be dead!"

"In the end, he was just a puny mortal cultivator..."

Ning Ye was laughing.

But not long after, his laughter came to an abrupt halt.

Cyan Mountain had crumbled.

Amidst the dust that filled the sky,

a voice slowly rang out.

A peak of Cyan Mountain that had stood for countless years, thousands of feet tall, was easily erased, yet that attack could not erase the small silhouette of wind and snow.

"Are you done?"

"Now."

"It’s my turn."

"I have a sword technique, hastily created. I invite you to witness it."

In the dust,

Su Chen’s soul returned to its position, his eyes glowing. He reached for the longsword in his hand, and the sword responded to him, letting out a clear cry.

An intent was bursting forth.

"No!"

Ning Ye shrieked.

At this moment, he no longer dared to fight and turned to flee.

He fled in a panic, like a stray dog that had lost its home.

He could not for the life of him understand how his power—at the Seventh Layer of the Immortal Path, with the Ten Extremes Skill, and a powerful corpse-ghoul body comparable to an Innate—could not kill a mere junior from the Human World.

He had walked the Immortal Path for over five hundred years.

But his opponent...

...was barely forty years old and had only been in cultivation for thirty years.

On what grounds was he losing!

VMMMM!

The world fell silent.

Beneath this one sword strike, both Annihilation and Vitality followed. Before this third sword, Sun-Chasing, heaven and earth themselves paled in comparison.

In mid-air,

Ning Ye’s body froze. The ferocious expression remained on his face, and the terror and Despair in his eyes were undeniable.
