Chapter 1334: Chapter 1330: Defiler of the Dead
"There’s no time to lose, let’s hurry down!"
Tian Qi urged, then he and Daichong entered the passage to the Different Space.
Success and failure both lie in the Different Space.
For the Black Hole Clan, the Different Space is of great use whether in daily life or in combat, hence the martial artists, especially the elders, love to utilize it.
Even when the road to the third underground level is just a step away, they still choose to use the Different Space, which gave Tian Qi and Daichong an opportunity!
Tian Qi and Daichong arrived at the third underground level through the passage of the Different Space, the place where the Spirit Vein Stone was located, already shrouded in red light, and took them some time to adjust to its intensity.
The place before them was quite expansive, and the Spirit Vein Stone was right in front of them.
"There it is! Hurry over!"
Daichong exclaimed, and together with Tian Qi, they slowly approached the Spirit Vein Stone.
As they got closer, they noticed on the left side of the Spirit Vein Stone, someone was sitting cross-legged; it was none other than Elder Dong Feng, the ruler of the Black Hole Clan, who was sitting still with his eyes closed.
And on the right side of the Spirit Vein Stone, lay a baby without any crying sound; was it not Ye Tian and Yun Xinyan’s own flesh and blood?
Tian Qi and Daichong clearly saw streams of red aura being drawn from the baby, then entering the Spirit Vein Stone, and through it, flowing slowly into Elder Dong Feng’s body.
This scene caused Daichong to clench his fist tightly!
"Even such a young child isn’t spared, is Elder Dong Feng even human?"
Meanwhile, Tian Qi rushed to Ye Tian and Yun Xinyan’s child, intent on picking up the baby.
But as soon as he touched the child’s body, Tian Qi was struck by a powerful force and thrown backward, tumbling over.
This was to be expected, given Elder Dong Feng’s caution, how could there be such a flaw?
Surrounding Ye Tian and Yun Xinyan’s child was naturally a powerful barrier!
Tian Qi’s attempt to take the child was naturally detected by Elder Dong Feng, who slowly opened his eyes and looked at the intruders Tian Qi and Daichong.
"How interesting, I clearly sealed the entrance, yet how could you two still arrive here?"
Elder Dong Feng’s expression showed a hint of surprise, because according to his expectation, Tian Qi and Daichong’s strength was mediocre and unlikely to breach the solid barrier between the second and third underground levels.
However, unexpected occurrences don’t mean Elder Dong Feng would panic; instead, he remained calm and composed.
"Do you think that just by being here, you can rescue Ye Tian’s child and thwart my grand plan? It’s unfortunate, although at this moment I’m in the key phase of absorbing the Divine Race’s bloodline, it’s not something your abilities can stop!"
Daichong scoffed: "Elder Dong Feng, you’re still stubborn even at death’s door! Now, if you move, you’ll fall short of success! As long as Qiqi and I give it our all, I refuse to believe you can still withstand it! If you resist, you won’t be able to absorb the Divine Race’s bloodline and power!"
Both Daichong and Tian Qi knew full well that their strength was no match for Elder Dong Feng!
Therefore, from the beginning, both were determined to disrupt Elder Dong Feng’s rhythm!
And now, Elder Dong Feng had not yet claimed the Divine Race’s bloodline within Ye Tian’s child, nor fully integrated all the forces...
Elder Dong Feng should be at a crucial stage now, so as long as Tian Qi and Daichong cause some commotion in front of Elder Dong Feng, it would be quite troublesome for him.
Even if they cannot ultimately stop Elder Dong Feng, waiting for Ye Tian to return, they could certainly defeat Elder Dong Feng!
Facing the aggressive Tian Qi and Daichong, Elder Dong Feng still maintained his seated posture, coldly saying: "To stop me from becoming a god, you two aren’t qualified at all! Besides, to kill you, I don’t need to act myself!"
As he spoke, a passage to Different Space appeared before Elder Dong Feng, from which three people unexpectedly emerged!
Seeing these three people, Tian Qi and Daichong showed expressions of shock!
Because these three were none other than the three elders of the Black Hole Clan: Elder Nan Feng, Elder Xi Feng, and Elder Bei Feng!
"My goodness... weren’t they dead...?"
Tian Qi exclaimed, the strength of these three elders is evident, with just him and Daichong, it’s unlikely they can defeat these three.
Daichong also said, "How has this guy managed to resurrect the dead?"
Elder Dong Feng coldly replied, "They haven’t been resurrected. I’ve merely used their flesh and blood to create clones! Naturally, with the technology of the Black Hole Clan, the clones aren’t just empty shells. These three are quite formidable!"
Daichong clenched his fists tightly and shouted angrily, "Desecrating the spirits of the dead, using the deceased as weapons, even sacrificing your own comrades — people like you don’t deserve to live in this world!"
Yet, Tian Qi shook his head and said, "To obtain the power of the Divine Race, he has repeatedly cloned the deceased. How could he have any compassion? Desecrating the spirits of the dead is just his routine!"
Both Daichong and Tian Qi wore expressions of deep gravity. At this point, it wasn’t a question of whether they could stop Elder Dong Feng. Facing the elders Nan Feng, Xi Feng, and Bei Feng of the Black Hole Clan, even if they were just clones, dealing with them would be quite troublesome!
Thus, Daichong and Tian Qi gathered their strength, while the three deceased elders of the Black Hole Clan advanced step by step towards them, giving them no chance to retreat.
Then, Elder Nan Feng launched an attack on Daichong and Tian Qi!
"Watch out! He’s coming over!"
Daichong shouted as a warning to Tian Qi.
Elder Nan Feng quickly closed the distance to the two, then suddenly swung his fist!
"Bam!"
A heavy punch landed on Daichong, striking a deadly point on his abdomen before he could even react!
Though merely a clone, Elder Nan Feng’s punch was not light. Just one hit sent Daichong flying backward!
"Dammit!"
Tian Qi dared not hesitate; he immediately aimed his thumb at the attacking Elder Nan Feng and unleashed a fierce black Qi Force that fiercely shot towards Elder Nan Feng.
Nevertheless, Elder Nan Feng did not move at all, allowing Tian Qi’s black Qi Force at such a close range to strike directly at his chest!
"Clangclangclangclangclangclangclangclang~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"
The black Qi Force hit Elder Nan Feng’s chest directly and rebounded off, causing no harm to Elder Nan Feng’s body!
"How is this possible!?"
Tian Qi was shocked, and at that moment, Elder Nan Feng had already reached him, swinging a punch straight at Tian Qi’s face.
"Damn!"
With all his energy focused on the attack, Tian Qi even momentarily forgot how to defend. If struck by Elder Nan Feng’s powerful punch, he feared he would be gravely injured if not killed.
At the critical moment, just as before when Daichong was knocked away by Elder Nan Feng’s attack, he suddenly pulled Tian Qi aside, saving him from the devastating fate of being hit by Elder Nan Feng’s heavy punch!
Though Tian Qi and Daichong narrowly escaped, they were still alarmed — how could this clone of the deceased elder be so powerful?
Meanwhile, Elder Dong Feng, sitting and absorbing the Divine Race bloodline and power from Ye Tian’s child, brazenly laughed, "Though the clones are far inferior to the original, the original was still an elder of the Black Hole Clan. Your meager skills are completely ineffective against the clones!"
The truth was just as Elder Dong Feng said. Previously, Elder Dong Feng himself could maneuver at extreme speed, contending with experts like Ye Tian.
Thus, the clone of Elder Nan Feng naturally inherited the original’s strong physique, leaving Daichong and Tian Qi nearly powerless against such a Nan Feng Elder...
More severely, their enemies weren’t just Elder Nan Feng alone. The other two deceased elders, Elder Xi Feng and Elder Bei Feng, were also opponents of the two. The three-against-two scenario was quite disadvantageous for Tian Qi and Daichong!
"Qiqi, although the situation is dire, we can’t retreat now! If we flee, everyone will truly be doomed! So even if we have to force it, we must hold out until Ye Tian returns! During this time, we have to stir up some trouble, so Elder Dong Feng won’t have it easy!"
Daichong said resolutely. In his hand, a Blade of the Wind appeared, a weapon no less powerful than a Life Weapon.
"Qiqi, I’ll be close, and you’ll be distant. This time, let’s fight these monsters with everything we’ve got!"
"Alright!"
Tian Qi nodded in agreement. There’s no need for excessive tactics when faced with a resounding call to arms. Daichong’s strategy might have been vague, but Tian Qi’s understanding and intuition were sharp, allowing her to grasp the concept and adhere to Daichong’s plan.
