Free Web NovelChapter 1690: Chapter 1687: Slaying Chen Yanshou
At the moment when Chen Yanshou was extremely puzzled, he suddenly saw tender green branches wrapping around the Sword Stele.
The branches took the chance to wrap around his arm while seizing the Sword Stele.
Chen Yanshou was greatly shocked, frightened to retreat repeatedly.
Suddenly, he found that those branches could actually adhere to his arm, using this as a passage to incessantly devour the Spiritual Power within him.
This discovery made his face change drastically, wishing to rid himself of this demon as persistent as a bone-deep maggot.
However, regardless of what methods he employed, he couldn’t stop the branches from absorbing his Spiritual Power, or even his flesh.
At most, he could only slow down the speed of devouring slightly.
What terrified him the most was that the branches were still spreading from his arm towards other parts of his body.
If left unchecked, when it had spread all over his body, his old life would undoubtedly end here.
Thinking of this, a resolute expression immediately flashed in Chen Yanshou’s murky pupils.
Then, without any hesitation, he swung the ancient long sword in his hand violently, slashing towards his own arm.
"Crack!"
The arm was neatly severed, blood spurting out, dyeing the entire starry sky.
At this moment, Li Chen’s figure slowly emerged amid a shower of starlight.
He beckoned towards the branches and said, "Good daughter, come here!"
Before Li Chen’s words fell, the branches transformed into the figure of a little girl, floating over to him while entangled around the dilapidated Sword Stele.
"Daddy, daddy, this person is so powerful; he almost hurt me just now!"
Li Chen gently patted the head of the Strangulation, comforting, "Then later when Daddy slays him for you, won’t that make you feel better?"
Before Li Chen finished speaking, Strangulation’s little head was nodding like a chick pecking at rice.
At this, Strangulation stuck out her scarlet tongue, licking her lips fiercely.
Her movements were so fluid one couldn’t help but feel chills down their spine.
Upon seeing Strangulation, Chen Yanshou was inexplicably horrified.
"Outer Realm Demon? Li Chen, how do you have an Outer Realm Demon in your hands?"
A sinister smile emerged at the corner of Li Chen’s mouth, coldly saying, "A dead man doesn’t need to know so much!"
After saying that, Li Chen raised the Seven-star Dragon Abyss, stepping towards Chen Yanshou step by step.
Though Chen Yanshou lost an arm, the fury in his heart was thoroughly ignited.
"Li Chen, don’t push me too far. Today, if need be, we’ll perish together!"
As he spoke, he suddenly elevated his aura to its peak state, trying to force Li Chen back.
However, Li Chen merely chuckled unconcerned.
"The fish will certainly die, but the net may not break!"
Just as the words filled with killing intent left his mouth, the Seven-star Dragon Abyss in Li Chen’s hand tore through layers of void, extending towards Chen Yanshou.
Seeing himself cornered, Chen Yanshou let out a roar towards the sky.
"Li Chen, you’re pushing me to this!"
After speaking, the True Yuan within his body gushed out like vast waves.
Even the surrounding void couldn’t bear such violent energy, starting to shake violently.
Seeing this scene, Li Chen’s pupils contracted slightly.
Apparently, this old guy intends to self-destruct!
It’s just as well, a chance to test my control over the Space Law!
Thinking of this, Li Chen no longer hesitated, quickly pressing his hands together, activating the Meteorite Heart within him, then condensed a black hole vortex using his body as a star.
Chen Yanshou’s location was precisely within the area covered by the black hole vortex.
The violent power generated by his self-destruction was devoured by the black hole vortex Li Chen transformed into before it could even be absorbed.
This immediately filled Chen Yanshou’s heart with powerlessness and despair.
It seemed like at that moment, Li Chen was the ruler of this universe.
While he himself was like an ant under the feet of a giant before him.
With just a flick of a finger, the man could easily crush him.
Chen Yanshou was extremely unwilling, but helpless in the face of it.
The feeling was like being a speck of dust before the vast star sky, despairing yet powerless.
Initially, Chen Yanshou struggled fiercely, hoping to rid himself of the devouring power exerted by Li Chen’s black hole vortex on his flesh and blood strength.
However, despite having exhausted all his means, the results were unchanged.
Until he was exhausted, powerless to resist.
Thus, Li Chen devoured Chen Yanshou’s strength of flesh and blood by means of whale swallowing.
Seeing the danger, Chen Yanshou’s Divine Soul attempted to flee.
Upon witnessing this scene, Li Chen did not pursue, but instead shouted at Strangulation.
"Good daughter, here comes your late-night snack!"
Hearing there was a "midnight snack" to be had, Strangulation’s eyes burst with brilliant light instantly, appearing very excited.
Immediately, without any hesitation, she transformed her body into hundreds of vines, means swiping towards Chen Yanshou from all directions.
The vines of Strangulation possessed a natural restraining effect on Divine Souls.
Thus, under Strangulation’s sure-kill technique, there was no way for Chen Yanshou’s Divine Soul to escape.
In no time, he was devoured completely like an insect fallen into the stomach of a Cannibal Flower, leaving not a trace behind.
Seeing Chen Yanshou brutally slain, only then did Li Chen heave a long sigh of relief.
Otherwise, if the old fellow was allowed to escape back, with his cultivation, plus the unfathomable Zhai Xingzi, and the strong ones in Xingyun Hall, he would be indeed hard to contend with.
Now it’s fine; with Chen Yanshou dead, to Zhai Xingzi, it’s as if an arm was broken.
He could seize this opportunity to defeat them one by one!
Thinking of this, a satisfied cold smile emerged at the corner of Li Chen’s mouth.
"Daddy, daddy, I’m not full yet, can I eat this?"
Just as Li Chen’s mind was racing, the innocent voice of Strangulation suddenly sounded, pulling his thoughts back to reality.
Li Chen looked at Strangulation drooling over the dilapidated Sword Stele and couldn’t help but break out in cold sweat.
"This one cannot be eaten!"
Strangulation blinked her big eyes, pitifully saying, "I’ll just have a tiny taste!"
While speaking, she even stretched out a finger, shaking it before Li Chen while emphasizing repeatedly, "I’ll only take a tiny bite, won’t eat much."
This left Li Chen speechless; what the heck, this thing isn’t for snacking on!
To divert Strangulation’s attention, Li Chen thought of the Starry Copper Corpse he caught earlier, saying, "The stele can’t be eaten, here, have this!"
Strangulation looked at the Starry Copper Corpse with utter disdain, blinking her big eyes in protest:
"What’s this ugly thing; it can’t taste good!"
