My gorgeous wife

Chapter 2150: Chapter 2118: Blood Pupil, Blood Ox

The capital of Sky Jiao Nation has vanished.

Under the palm of The Great Han, the entire Heavenly Jiao City was completely obliterated, reduced to ruins, along with every creature within it, entirely exterminated.

At this moment, a strange crack suddenly appeared on the head of The Great Han, the crack expanded, and his skull actually opened up entirely.

Even Jiao Emperor, who had already fallen into numb stupor, couldn’t help but shiver once again.

"What... on earth are you?"

He tried, he resisted, but in the hands of The Great Han, he had no power to fight back at all, this man used only one hand to imprison him in place, while the other hand directly wiped out the entire Heavenly Jiao City.

At this moment, he witnessed yet another eerie sight.

Under the opened skull of The Great Han, a transparent, crystalline chip was revealed, and around the chip were numerous colorful, glowing small tubes that emitted a massive, terrifying aura as they flowed.

At this moment, the chip in The Great Han’s head flew out directly, projecting towards the sky.

A gigantic blood-red eyeball appeared in the sky.

This was not a real eyeball, but merely a projection, yet even as a projection, it radiated a terrifying oppression that left Jiao Emperor horrified.

Facing this eyeball, he felt like a tiny speck of dust before the ocean.

Insignificantly small, almost invisible.

The eyeball trembled slightly, then, within the vanquished Heavenly Jiao City, countless blood qi could be seen rising into the sky.

Witnessing this scene, tears of blood fell from Jiao Emperor’s eyes in anguish.

This blood qi was the life of Heavenly Jiao City!

Or rather, it belonged to the beings that once lived in Heavenly Jiao City!

As the blood qi supplemented the eyeball, it seemed to become more substantial, more materialized.

"Seems like it’s still not enough."

The Great Han glanced at Jiao Emperor, casually pointed a finger towards him.

The last scene Jiao Emperor saw in his life was the rainbow light bursting from The Great Han, rushing in all directions.

"Sky Jiao Nation is finished."

This was Jiao Emperor’s final thought.

In the next moment, Jiao Emperor’s body and soul were completely obliterated under The Great Han’s single finger, transforming into pure blood qi energy, supplementing the blood-red eyeball in the sky.

Afterwards, The Great Han continued to strike, annihilating dozens of cities before stopping.

"Energy replenishment complete."

"Blood Pupil Heavenly Eye, activate."

Simultaneously, in four other locations outside Sky Jiao Nation, gigantic blood-red eyeballs ascended into the sky.

This meant that the other four were also employing this wicked, bloodthirsty Secret Technique.

When the five eyeballs activated at the same time, the entire external Sea Edge Realm seemed to be illuminated.

This world-illuminating power frightened everyone in the external Sea Edge Realm, causing some powerhouses, including the strongest of the major forces, to escape into Folded Space immediately, unwilling to make any contact with such terrifying power.

"Input target information, commence search."

Gradually, two indistinct figures appeared in the sight of the five.

Those two figures were Li Chen and Konggu Venerable!

This Secret Technique of Blood Pupil could trace back events that had occurred!

"Target located."

Soon, the five gathered together again.

"This blood sacrifice counts isn’t large, so the might of Blood Pupil Heavenly Eye is limited, and the duration won’t be long. Hence, we must quickly locate the target and complete the mission."

"Understood."

The five had no further hesitation, directly stepping into Folded Space, leaving behind a devastated external Sea Edge Realm.

That day, over seventy percent of the powerhouses in the external Sea Edge Realm were bloodwashed clean, including a large number of ordinary beings and countless innocent bystanders affected by it, whose value to the five was merely as sacrificial offerings for their Secret Technique.

Also, it seemed these individuals hadn’t entirely vanished yet.

From the blood pupil above the five’s heads, distorted faces could still be seen faintly, silently screaming in pain, they... died with grievances.

...

"Finally... almost there."

Treading over snow and ice, Li Chen’s complexion turned pale due to the icy aura surrounding him.

Due to the extreme cold, his blood flow slowed down, causing some disruption in his circulation.

"Blood Ignition!"

Li Chen invoked the Law of Blood, forcefully boiling his blood. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be long before he was frozen stiff.

"Taptap taptap..."

Finally, Li Chen reached the summit of the snowy mountain, standing before the not-so-tall ancient tower.

The spatial fissures faintly visible around him indicated the danger here, yet Li Chen didn’t hesitate at all, directly entering the ancient tower through the door at the base.

Because Red Moon told him that the source of the call was inside the tower.

Upon entering the ancient tower, the surrounding chill instantly faded away, as if it were a natural barrier; inside and outside the tower were entirely different worlds, different realms.

"At the top of the tower."

Li Chen noticed from outside that the tower had nine layers.

Although it looked small from the outside, upon entering, he realized the internal space of the tower was surprisingly vast.

"There are Space Laws present, and their level is extremely high. Hmm? Is this... traces of world embryonic form?!" As Li Chen sensed a strange energy within the tower’s space, he couldn’t help but shiver.

This ancient tower was about to naturally form a minor world!

Moreover, not just one, but nine! Each layer of the tower was a world!

The grade of this world embryonic form was extremely high; although it didn’t reach the level of a cosmic embryonic form, it definitely surpassed the Soul Realm, and Li Chen even suspected that not even the True Realm could form such traces of world embryonic form!

Thus, aside from this conclusion, there’s only one possibility.

This tower was likely left by a Palm Realm powerhouse!

"Is this meant to be a test?"

Li Chen looked around; it was a vast prairie, with some powerful breaths of life deep within. And Li Chen also saw that where the life breath resided was the entrance to the next layer.

The life guarding the first layer’s entrance was roughly equivalent to the strength of a Fourth-Order Heavenly King.

"Then let’s see what’s hidden inside." Li Chen spoke softly.

"Bang!"

Without harming the lives guarding the tower layer, Li Chen directly swept past them and hurried towards the next layer.

Then, like breaking through bamboo, Li Chen rapidly charged through six layers.

On the seventh layer, Li Chen finally encountered a lifeform capable of fighting him.

It was a Blood Ox with wings on its ribs!

Judging from its cultivation aura alone, this Blood Ox had probably reached the rank of Ninth-Order Heavenly Venerate!

Because in the previous sixth layer, three Heavenly Venerable Level lifeforms of the Eighth Rank were all swept away by Li Chen, and this seventh layer had directly come to having a Ninth-Order Heavenly Venerate rank lifeform.

"Daoist Lord Level? A worthy opponent!"

Li Chen’s eyes sparked with brilliance, and he began to battle with the Blood Ox.

Despite the ancient tower being dilapidated, Li Chen’s space was stabilized to a terrifying degree; even such a battle between Li Chen and the Blood Ox couldn’t tear the space apart.

In the clash between the two, they unleashed earth-shattering upheavals.

Outside, even the ancient tower shook several times, seemingly on the verge of collapsing, yet the ancient tower ultimately didn’t fall.

Finally, Li Chen, at the cost of his physical body being torn apart several times, forcibly froze the Blood Ox with the Wheel of Space-Time divine skill, and shot the Blood Ox with the Black and White Arrow of Life and Death, turning it into a cloud of blood mist.

"Huff—huff—"

Breathing heavily several times, at this level, the gap between ranks is incredibly large; although the Blood Ox was only one rank higher than Li Chen, Li Chen paid a significant price to kill it.

"The seventh layer is so strong, then what about the eighth layer and the Ninth Layer above..." Li Chen’s eyes flickered.

At this moment, Li Chen suddenly noticed that the cloud of blood not far away began to slowly condense, soon reforming into a Blood Ox.

"Indestructible Origin?"

Li Chen finally realized that this Blood Ox wasn’t a true lifeform; their origins were already engraved in the ancient tower, allowing them to infinitely resurrect as long as the tower wasn’t destroyed.

"Do I have to fight another round?" Li Chen frowned.

"No need, you’ve passed." At this moment, an ancient and hoary voice came.

Li Chen looked up and found it was the Blood Ox speaking.

"You have wisdom?" Li Chen concentrated his gaze on the Blood Ox. The lifeforms he’d encountered along the way, although powerful, were all unable to communicate; but this Blood Ox was clearly different. Not only was it skilled in various combat skills and divine power law use, now it could even converse with him.

"Of course, only most of the time we’re asleep." The Blood Ox’s voice carried emotions that were hard to describe: "Here, although we’re still alive, we can’t fully count as living. Unable to cultivate, no one to talk to, not even anything to pass the time; over time, most of us just got used to sleeping."

"Because if we don’t sleep, it won’t take long before we become like the little things below, completely insane, losing intellect, turning into beasts." The Blood Ox slowly said: "The ridiculous part is, even if they’ve lost their ability to think and become beasts, they still remain eternally imprisoned here."

"Are you imprisoned here by someone?" Li Chen asked, puzzled.

"What else?" The Blood Ox glanced at Li Chen; at the moment, it was rather weak, having been killed once by Li Chen, its cultivation had only partially recovered, posing no real threat to Li Chen.

"Who would naturally like to be confined to such a place, eternally becoming a slave?"

Li Chen was instantly speechless.

"Take a rest and head up; that old vampire isn’t easy to deal with." The Blood Ox shook its huge head: "Among us, the only one not sleeping and not going mad is likely that old vampire."
