Chapter 428
Leylin focused his mind, attentively watching every action in case Owen Caddell suddenly took action.
It was challenging to obstruct the Shadowless Path. If one couldn’t react at the moment Owen took action, the one who was ambushed would instantly become a dead body.
Although it seemed from his body language that Owen was aiming at Apollyon, nobody could guess his moves. No one could be sure whether or not he was faking a strike, then shifting to kill him instantly.
Quietly Moon Goddess Charlotte and Tyler stood guard on both sides of Leylin. They were all waiting in silence.
Apollyon was obviously anxious. Under the clamp of Nate Barrington, he fell into the disadvantaged situation already. If Owen took action all of a sudden, in that short moment, he could easily get hurt.
The War Devil was intertwining with Chemosh, not leaving him leeway to watch here and there. He could hardly watch Apollyon’s back.
Suddenly, a beam of light zoomed over from the East. A white bone clone was flying fast toward them.
It was Apollyon’s white bone clone!
Receiving Apollyon’s summon, this white bone clone had departed from the Snow Dragon Island and arrived on time to help him cope with this strenuous situation.
Apollyon had three white bone clones in total, each of them fabricated by extremely marvelous methods. They all had part of his divine abilities and some bizarre tricks.
‘But it’s too late, he’s finally decided to attack.’ Leylin who can monitor Owen actions knew that he was ready to take action now.
Swoosh!
The Amethyst Sword hiding in the purple cloud shot out at this moment.
At the same time, a brilliant, sharp beam of light appeared next to the white bone clone.
At that moment, Apollyon’s white bone clone was like it got jabbed hard by a sharp weapon. The skeleton of the white bone clone was shaken disorderly, like it was about to lose its frame.
Owen showed himself.
The Amethyst Sword came back to his hand. Light shadows of the sword were circling like thousands of purple lightning, as thick as a shower, covering the white bone clone.
Beautiful light sparked out from the white skeleton clone. Grumbling impact rose, boiling the seawater around the Sun Island.
BOOM!
Apollyon’s flesh body shook as he was attacked at his back. Dark Qi gushed out continually in the void. Owen showed himself again behind him, piercing Apollyon right in the middle of his back.
Nate seized the change and grinned fiendishly, releasing the trident and violently striking the Devil Bell. The bell then turned into a beam of dark light, falling down out of everyone’s sight.
Owen disappeared again.
Apollyon’s face was gloomy. The evil light in his eyes became bright; clearly, it seemed he was enraged. However, he suddenly spurted blood before he could take any action. Terrified expression flashed on his face for the first time.
He didn’t look at Nate or Owen. His complicated eyes were gazing at the endless vast sky, where the dark Qi was surging torrentially. Inside the clusters of dark Qi, a strange, intimidating power burst out. Transparent bones shot out from the dark Qi.
“He’s here!”
Apollyon cried, his face frantic.
Charlotte and Tyler even Leylin were momentarily stunned, looking suspiciously to the sky. In between the clusters of dark Qi, space suddenly cracked. A vague, majestic silhouette was breaking a white skeleton clone with his bare hands in the lightning weaved space.
‘So fast!’
The white skeleton clone Apollyon had summoned from the Fourth Demon Area was pitifully broken in the space slit before it could enter the Endless Sea from the Demon Area.
That man had borrowed the chaotic, turbulent energy in the space to smash that white skeleton clone.
Just because he appeared amidst the chaotic space energy even Leylin with the space plane grid projected on his A. I. Chip interface couldn’t find him sooner than Apollyon.
From the lightning weaved space, that majestic silhouette laughed wildly. “Apollyon, I’ve confined your other white bone clone in the outer territory space. You will never be able to summon it again.” Then, that man tore the space slit with both hands and drilled out.
This sudden entry to this legendary showdown was none other than the hero of Endless Sea and one of the greatest warriors to ever grace this world, the infamous head of the Alaister family, King Abaddon Alaister!
The peerless warrior of the Endless Sea appeared again after years, having been tortured in the Demon Area after he had subdued two white skeleton clones of Apollyon.
It was like there was a tacit understanding between them, that at the moment King Abaddon got out from the space crack, Owen retook action.
The Amethyst Sword appeared with radiant purple halo, covering Apollyon entirely. Nate and Leylin exchanged looks and took action together, attacking him with their full forces.
After Abaddon got out of the space crack, he didn’t hesitate, joining the battle right away.
Leylin couldn’t help but be surprised with Abaddon who came with an irresistible momentum, not caring about the layers of defense Apollyon had arranged.
He shot straightforward, breaking numerous demonic defending walls until he reached Apollyon’s true body and punched him.
A heavy, overbearing punch that could block the space slit pounded on his head.
Apollyon had enemies both in front and behind him. As he was about to parry, the purple light had pierced from behind like sharp spears.
Under the severe pain, he hardly gathered the internal force in his body. He could only strive to get rid of the situation. The dragon horn on his head glowed, gushing out waves of crazy, fierce air to encounter King Abaddon’s fist.
BANG!
It was like landslides and earthquakes were happening. Grumbling sounds reverberated the whole Hengluo Sea, making people feel a vague pain in their eardrums.
Slits of flesh and blood cracked on Apollyon’s rigid body under this punch. His body was like broken glass, looking extremely bizarre.
‘What power!?”
Leylin was amazed, King Abaddon might not be as powerful as someone like Nate Barrington but amongst every warrior that Leylin has ever seen Abaddon has the highest lethality and overbearing momentum.
Nate and others immediately seized the chance to storm forward together. They urged their powers, bombarding crazily on Apollyon.
After this wave of attacks, Apollyon flesh body had many open wounds that were bleeding badly, his bones broken.
His flesh body showered out blood. He faced the sky, laughing wildly while his body cracked into fissures. Even though the Demon Dwellers had sturdy bodies, under so many attacks of violent forces, no one could help him.
Apollyon’s body was wrecked.
A dark beam of light shrank into a dot in the air the moment his body was killed, shooting towards the space crack, disappearing in just a blink.
“Soul compelling!”
Seeing that he had no chance of survival Apollyon determinedly condensed his soul into a small dot, leaving the flesh body and sneaking into the space crack in a flash to save his immortal soul.
Although there were countless dangers inside the lightning weaved space, which could make his soul disappear forever, it could prevent the others from chasing after him.
Everybody knew that the space crack wasn’t stable. Anybody who dared to get in could get both his soul and body perished. However, if his soul flew fast enough, it wouldn’t be affected by the chaotic forces in the space crack.
However, if the body got in together, the risk factor would increase by ten times.
Thus, even though they saw him send his soul into the space crack at the last moment, Abaddon and the others didn’t continue their pursuit. They calmly looked at the crack, urging their soul consciousness to sense.
“Can’t find him.”
Owen closed his eyes to sense for a while, then shook his head in regret. “The chaotic energies in the crack usually appear, hindering the soul sensing. If we let the soul consciousness go too far, it’s hard to call it back. We’d better not take risks.”
“Never mind,” Abaddon laughed. “Only Apollyon fled away. Even if he has divine abilities and can find a shelter in the space crack, it will take several hundreds of years to recover. At that time, perhaps you and I would have the True God Realm cultivation base already. Even if he could come back, he wouldn’t be a threat.”
“There’s one more of them,” Abaddon looked at Chemosh. He suddenly cried in surprise. “Where does this black iron puppet come from? It has such tremendous powers to hold Chemosh down.”
Tyler smiled and bowed, “Greetings Master Abaddon. Alaister family has good fortune!”
Tyler looked at Leylin as he completed his last sentence. Hearing him, King Abaddon was stunned for a while before shifting his eyes to Leylin. He smiled brightly. “Good boy! I can’t believe that after I left the Endless Sea, you can still hold the torch of the Alaister name to shine on the sea of Endless Sea!”
Leylin smiled and bent down to greet him.” Greetings Great Grandfather, I have done all that’s expected from me. But this is not a place to reminisce, we shall talk afterwards. Letting Apollyon go is already rather regretful.”
Leylin was really a bit regretful, because if he used a Trump card he could have dealt with him once and for all but, Apollyon’s defeat and immediately retreat was too sudden and his actions were also rather unbelievable.
There is a huge chance he won’t survive today’s ordeal and even if he does as Abaddon said, he has no chance at redemption. This isn’t some fairytale, Leylin is sure that Apollyon for the most part is done with.
“Yes.”
Abaddon nodded cheerily, turning himself into a red light that shot towards Chemosh.Owen also took action.
Nate didn’t move.
“Kid, do you really need me to work here?” Nate snorted, somehow disgruntled. “Your family does have a deep conspiracy, hiding inside the Demon Area and waiting for the best chance. When Abaddon took action, he immediately made Apollyon leave with only a beam of soul. I think the stuff here doesn’t matter to me anymore, does it?”
“Well I also had a deal with Lord Yashir but he hasn’t come here yet, it would be best to deal with the Demon World once and for all isn’t it?” Leylin smiled hinting towards the inability of sea tribe to help at most important conjecture. Although Yashir wasn’t a member of his tribe, Nate was still the undisputed leader of Sea tribes and his people shortcomings were attached to his own. For someone as prideful as him, this wasn’t expected.
“If Chemosh doesn’t die today, he’ll come to take revenge on the Sea Tribes soon. Yeah, I think that if you want the best for your Sea Tribes, you shouldn’t let him leave here alive, right?”
Nate shut his mouth, although he knew the intention and purpose of each Leylin word he couldn’t help but nod begrudgingly.
Apollyon’s body was destroyed and he was reduced into a mere soul remnant with extremely low chance of survival, while Chemosh could hardly escape his own destiny.
War Devil, King Abaddon, Owen, Nate and Charlotte took action together.
This time Leylin didn’t act like before, instead he was ready to act immediately if Chemosh tried to escape like Apollyon.
‘I can’t let such a huge opportunity slip by.’
The strongest energies blocked Chemosh’s leeway, under the bombardment of which, his flesh body was soon mashed to pulp. At this moment, warriors from everywhere gathered on the Sun Island.
Yashir from the Silver Shark Clan, Bret Marren from Martial Palace, Dean Gunther and Teesra Skyline, Azrail from Corpse sect and the others famous characters of the Endless Sea, all came after they got the news. Now, they were gazing at the impact point of the attacking energies.
Under the furious attacks from all sorts of powers, Chemosh’s fleshy body directly exploded as expected. At the moment when his body exploded, a beam of soul flew out, following Apollyon’s way to enter the space crack.
The soul of the Third Sky of Spirit Realm warriors had been trained strenuously many times, so it was hard to erase it completely.
As the attackers saw his soul flying out, they wanted to stop it but realized that none of their forces worked.
“Don’t let him go!”
Many voices arose above the Sun Island, but too bad that no one had the guts to waste their souls and stop the escapee.
Once the soul left the body, physical attacks couldn’t do anything to it. If they wanted to destroy the soul of a Third Sky of Spirit Realm warrior, they would need some warriors in the same realm, using the soul power to bind the other.
Most were only at the First Sky of Spirit Realm. Of course, they didn’t dare to do anything.
Nate participated this battle because of Leylin, so he wouldn’t urge all of his powers. Soul fighting was dangerous. If Chemosh had no way to flee and wanted to die together with them, even he couldn’t swallow this. He didn’t want to take any risks.
Although Owen and Abaddon had the power, they didn’t master soul fighting. Thus, they couldn’t risk it. Bret Marren from Martial Palace was an expert of soul, but he was also afraid that if he took action, Chemosh Yan would drag him to death together.
People here had wild schemes. While they were hesitant, Chemosh soul was getting closer to the space crack.
During this helpless situation as everyone stood by Leylin who no one paid attention to at this moment, suddenly moved.
A beam of silver light brandished from his Sea of Consciousness directly, getting near Chemosh in just a blink.
Right at this moment, the third eye of his host soul opened.
Silvery flames shot out from his third eye, covering the whole horizon in just a flash.
“What is this!?”
Abaddon’s face slightly changed. He didn’t think much, and descended next to Leylin’s body to guard him so that no one would take advantage of this situation.
Tyler and Charlotte were alert.
Nate Barrington, Yashir, Brian Omega, Corpse Devouring King Beast also noticed the subtle change. Everybody came close to him, throwing their warning eyes everywhere against those who dared to attack him.
‘You have a lot of people to cover your back.’ Suddenly the Ice Cold Flame chinded in and commented from inside the Blood Vein Ring.
‘They are a bit too serious, with my control over the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame, I don’t need to send my host soul out to fight Chemosh’s soul. But of course they acted immediately to protect my body in case I did.’ Leylin sighed but he couldn’t help but feel that to have someone cover your back isn’t that bad, but him being him Leylin can’t just shake off the scenario that he might get backstabbed.
Leylin always had trouble trusting others, according to his ideology the basis of others service, trust and loyalty to him is his powers.
“Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame!”
Many people couldn’t help but cry with fearful faces.
They all knew that no one could tame the legendary heaven flames that could destroy all souls. But now, they were witnessing it appear strangely on earth.
Chemosh soul shivered, then flashed to escape the coverage area of the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame.
Leylin didn’t waste neither his breath nor energy as numerous silvery flames flooded out, covering Chemosh’s soul while it was running away. Under the flames of the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame, his soul was burned little by little, emitting mournful cries.
Everyone felt shivers running down their spines while watching the scene.
Chemosh was an illustrious Demon King in the Fourth Demon Area. He had been swaggering for so many years, a nightmare of all warriors in the Endless Sea. However, under the effect of the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame, this earth-shaking Demon King was burnt pathetically.
This scene scared many people, as they instinctively thought that they should never go against Leylin.
Chemosh soul burned in the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame, and finally disappeared completely from this world.
“Good lad!” By now Abaddon has noticed that Leylin hasn’t actually left his body and erased his worries. He laughed cheerily. His laughter shook the whole world as if he wanted to announce to the world that the Alaister family would become the most brilliant force of the Endless Sea once again, beyond all the other forces.
“Brother Alaister, long time no see.” Bret smiled coldly, nodding at him. “According to our plan, should we deal with the Yama Kings now, eh?”
People gathering on the Sun Island were dumbstruck, as they didn’t understand anything.
Leylin shook his head,’ These three old geezer are quite schemers.’
Leading the Demon Tribes to Endless Sea, seizing the chance to kill the two great Demon Kings… That’s their plan.
Abaddon curled his lips. “From fifty years ago, we have wanted to remove the threat from the Demon Tribes. We’ve had plans for him since a long, long time ago. When the Demon Kings were in the Demon Area, even if we urged all of our powers, it was hard to kill any Demon Kings. In the Demon Area, the powers of the Demon Kings are even thirty percent stronger than what they have here. Moreover, they could take advantage of the barrier and their arrays for hundreds of years. Even if we could defeat them, they could retreat safe and sound. Thus, only leading them to the Endless Sea would give them some restrictions, which would prevent them from borrowing the arrangement and the powers from the Demon Area.”
Abaddon smiled coldly, telling everyone their earth-shaking plan under their attentive look.
It turned out that these three had never actually fought to death.
Several fights they had had were just to discuss the martial techniques. After each battle, they stayed hidden, which made the others believe that they were hurt. This was to deceive the Demon Tribes, giving them the bait that they had the chance to enter the Endless Sea.
Abaddon initially intruded the Demon Area and got confined there by the Demon King, which was a part of their plan.
The Alaister family had an undying body. During the time he was imprisoned, he had used the blood of the God King, trained it with his flesh body, to make his undying body enter a further step to a deeper achievement. At the same time, every force on the sea targeted the Alaister Family, making them leave the sea begrudgingly. Next, those forces joined the Demon Tribes. Changes constantly happened, which were all in the three’s calculations, as they were using their forces to affect the whole picture of the Endless Sea discreetly, guiding the situation accordingly with the scenario they had planned.
Everyone had taken part in their plan unknowingly. Little by little, they had fallen into today’s situation.
When Abaddon finished, all warriors there dropped their jaws in astonishment.
“The three Yama Kings are still here. We shouldn’t linger. Let’s take action immediately,” Bret urged.
“Great Grandfather, The Wings Clan and the Demonic Sound Clan are my people. They were spying on the Demon and Devil tribe for me, they had been rather loyal. Don’t touch them.” Leylin’s voice sounded in Abaddon’s ears.
“Okay, I promise.”
Abaddon, Bret and Owen exchanged looks, flying together towards the Kyara Sea.
That was where the Dark Dwellers stayed currently.
‘Now finally the Endless Sea business is over. My harvest is rather good with my success in Upanishad’s comprehension. With King Abaddon’s return and our inevitably humongous profit because of monopoly over the Demon and Devil Area I would gain a shit load of resources for my Blacksmith and Alchemist studies. Not to mention, I also got War Devil. My powers also took a substantial leap and I can leap into Spirit Realm after a seclusion.’
“Good times favour good man.. Hahahahhah…!”
