Chapter 631 - 630: Trash Skill? For Lord Mosquito, It’s a Divine Technique
Chapter 631: Chapter 630: Trash Skill? For Lord Mosquito, It’s a Divine Technique
Inside Kyoto.
Besides Lin Yuehua and Feng Wuji, there was another Emperor Realm expert.
The patriarch of the Xia Family, Xia Hanshan.
He and Xuanyuan Changfeng were both patriarchs of the Ten Great Clans, and they had always been on good terms.
But he had never imagined that Xuanyuan Changfeng would sacrifice his entire clan and attempt to perform a blood sacrifice of all of Kyoto.
His Xia Family’s estate was also enveloped by the crimson light barrier.
Once the crimson light barrier fully tightened, all of his descendants would be finished.
He knew very well that this was no time to be concerned only with self-preservation.
If they couldn’t break this blood barrier, everyone would die here.
So, he had immediately joined Lin Yuehua and Feng Wuji, adding his power to the assault on the blood barrier.
"Where is the old Director? When is he going to get here?"
Xia Hanshan slammed a fist into the crimson light barrier, asking Lin Yuehua anxiously.
Just like Lin Yuehua and Feng Wuji, he had placed all his hopes in Lu Lingchen.
In his eyes, only Lu Lingchen had the power to fight Xuanyuan Changfeng, who had become a pseudo-god.
Lin Yuehua shook her head. "We’ve already sent someone to contact the old Director, but we haven’t heard anything back yet."
"Don’t overthink it. For now, just attack the blood barrier. Let’s stall for as long as we can."
"Alright."
Xia Hanshan nodded and gathered his power again, pounding his fists against the crimson light barrier.
This was no time to dwell on past grievances.
If they couldn’t put aside their differences and work together, everyone would die beneath this crimson light barrier.
「At the same time.」
Above the Xuanyuan Estate.
Chu Sheng watched helplessly as Xuanyuan Changfeng activated the Blood Sacrifice Grand Array, enveloping the entirety of Kyoto in the crimson light barrier.
’If Xuanyuan Changfeng had attacked me first, the system would’ve definitely initiated an emergency protocol and helped me kill him.’
But Xuanyuan Changfeng had completely ignored him.
After ascending to godhood, he had merely shot Chu Sheng a cold glance.
Then, he began to channel all his energy into the Blood Sacrifice Grand Array, not giving Chu Sheng a second thought.
"This old bastard hates my guts, so why didn’t he come after me first?"
"Couldn’t he have killed me before starting his blood sacrifice?!"
Chu Sheng griped helplessly.
"If you’re in such a hurry to die, don’t drag me down with you!"
"Release our contract first!"
The big black dog rolled its eyes dramatically.
The big black dog sounded anxious, but its eyes held not a single trace of panic.
However, Chu Sheng’s attention was entirely focused on Xuanyuan Changfeng and the crimson light barrier, so he failed to notice this detail.
The big black dog’s words, however, did make Chu Sheng suddenly remember something.
’That’s right!’
’I’m a Beast Taming mosquito!’
’I have a Contracted Beast!’
’Can’t I just learn some awesome Beast Taming Skill and borrow Little Black’s power?’
At this thought, Chu Sheng quickly asked Immortal Venerable Shi Xi, "Immortal Venerable, Immortal Venerable, can I learn the Skills of a Beast Tamer?"
"Of course you can," said Immortal Venerable Shi Xi.
Chu Sheng was instantly thrilled.
"Do you have any particularly badass Beast Taming Skills then?"
"Like one that can double my Beast Pet’s power."
"Or something that lets me fuse with my Beast Pet! Hurry up and teach me!"
Immortal Venerable Shi Xi pondered for a moment before speaking.
"No matter how powerful the Beast Taming Skill, it’s impossible for you to cross two Grand Realms and kill Xuanyuan Changfeng, who has already become a pseudo-god."
"Er..." Chu Sheng instantly deflated.
"However..." Immortal Venerable Shi Xi’s tone shifted.
"There is a Skill, widely considered trash by all Beast Tamers, that might be quite suitable for you right now."
Chu Sheng was taken aback and said with some dissatisfaction, "Immortal Venerable, are you messing with me?!"
"What’s the use of me learning a Skill everyone else thinks is trash?!"
"Don’t be hasty," Immortal Venerable Shi Xi said unhurriedly.
"The name of this Skill is [Phase Shift Universe]."
"It has only one function: it allows you and your Beast Pet to temporarily exchange realms with each other."
Chu Sheng thought for a moment and immediately understood why this Skill was scorned by all Beast Tamers.
The Beast Tamer profession itself relies on Beast Pets for combat.
Of course, a Beast Tamer like the Little Empress, whose own strength is absurdly powerful, is an exception to the exception.
If a Beast Tamer used [Phase Shift Universe],
after the exchange, the Beast Tamer’s realm would increase, but the Beast Pet’s realm would decrease.
You’re a Beast Tamer! If you don’t rely on your Beast Pet to fight, are you planning to go up and fight people with your bare hands?
Isn’t that putting the cart before the horse?
No wonder this Skill was considered trash.
But this Skill, so useless in the eyes of others, was indeed perfect for Chu Sheng.
Chu Sheng’s gaze fell upon the big black dog beside him.
On the surface, the big black dog’s power was at the Emperor Realm Early Stage.
But when it had killed the Ancient Armored Kun, which was also at the Emperor Realm Early Stage,
it had pinned its opponent to the ground and crushed it in a single move.
’If I could temporarily possess the big black dog’s realm...’
’Then when I operate the twelve Ancestral Witch Statues...’
’Wouldn’t the power of these statues rise along with my own realm, reaching the Peak of Emperor Realm?!!’
’And then, if I use the Twelve Ancestral Witches’ combination technique, [Wrath of the Witch God]...’
The more Chu Sheng thought about it, the more he felt this could actually work!
"Immortal Venerable! Teach me, quick!" Chu Sheng said urgently.
Immortal Venerable Shi Xi nodded and, without another word, extended a finger and gently tapped Chu Sheng on his mosquito head.
「At the same time.」
The crimson light barrier over Kyoto had already shrunk by a tenth.
More and more citizens who couldn’t escape in time were mercilessly devoured by the crimson light barrier.
Cries and screams echoed endlessly.
Xia Hanshan couldn’t help but ask again, "What on earth is going on with the old Director?"
"Why isn’t he here yet?"
"If he doesn’t come soon, Kyoto is really done for!"
Lin Yuehua shook her head, her expression grave. "I don’t know either."
Feng Wuji was just as confused. "Given the old Director’s personality, he should have charged into the Xuanyuan Estate immediately."
"For him not to have shown up by now... could he have been held up by something?"
As if to confirm his suspicion, a Military Department general who had been sent to contact the old Director finally returned, panting for breath.
"Emperor Lin! Emperor Feng! Emperor Xia!"
"We’ve contacted the old Director! It’s just that..."
Seeing the general stammering, Xia Hanshan’s anger flared, and he roared, "This is no time for that! Spit it out!"
The general’s expression was conflicted, as if he couldn’t even believe the words he was about to say.
He slowly uttered four words: "National Guardian Divine Mosquito."
"What?" Xia Hanshan froze, thinking he had misheard.
"What did you say?"
"The old Director only said those four words?"
"National Guardian Divine Mosquito?"
The general replied with a pained expression, "Yes, Emperor Xia."
"After I reported Kyoto’s situation to the old Director, he only said those four words."
Xia Hanshan muttered to himself, "The old Director’s meaning... surely he doesn’t expect that mosquito to save all of Kyoto?"
Lin Yuehua was equally incredulous. "It sounds... like that’s exactly what he means."
Feng Wuji couldn’t help but give a bitter smile. "The National Guardian Divine Mosquito can barely protect itself right now. How could it possibly save all of Kyoto?"
This message came from the old Director, the most respected and powerful man in Great Xia.
And even though the three of them had personally witnessed the countless miracles Chu Sheng had created,
this time, they couldn’t bring themselves to believe.
A King Realm mosquito defeating the now-godlike Xuanyuan Changfeng and saving the tens of millions of people in Kyoto?
Can’t you see the three of us, three bona fide Emperor Realm experts, are still here, completely helpless against this damn blood barrier?!
