Chronicles Of The Shura Clan 73 Bloodbath's Death and Resolve

He merely chuckled before;

Boom!

His body suddenly exuded a domineering and overbearing pressure as an apocalyptic pitch-black aura gushed out from within him. The pitch-black aura was like that of an ocean in the air emitted from his body. At this moment, the heaven and earth even turned darker as the pitch-black aura gushing out from Ling Chen's body roiled and surged like tidewater.

At the same time, his entire right hand suddenly turned dark as his five fingers turned into five long dark tree roots that wove together until they transformed into something that appeared to be a scythe, a long dark scythe made of dark tree roots.

And that wasn't all, some of the pitch-black aura that gushed out from Ling Chen's body also flowed around his arm until it enveloped the entire 3 meters long dark scythe.

The moment that the long dark scythe made of dark tree roots and enshrouded by Ling Chen's pitch black aura appeared, it looked like the weapon of a death god, full with murderous aura and ready to reap countless lives.

The long dark scythe made Ling Chen looked like the God of Death that had walked out from the Netherworld and arrived at the world of men to reap the souls of the dead.

Swoosh!

After creating his weapon, Ling Chen suddenly dashed toward the incoming furious Bloodbath with an evil smile on his face at an astonishing speed. In a flash, he had already arrived in front of Bloodbath like a ghost.

As if he was waiting for Ling Chen, the moment he appeared in front of him, Bloodbath quickly raised his large bloody battle-ax high up in the air as he forcefully slashed towards Ling Chen.

His speed was shockingly fast and the momentum and the force behind his large bloody battle-ax made it seemed like Ling Chen was facing a giant divine mountain instead of a large battle-ax.

Seeing this, Ling Chen didn't get flustered as he waved his right arm and struck with the long dark scythe towards the incoming large bloody battle-ax.

Bang!"

The sky suddenly shook violently as the two powerful attacks crashed into each other as sparks flew off in all directions. The space around the collision instantly shattered to pieces, causing cracks to appear and numerous black vortex to leak out from them. This was the result of a battle between two powerful Martial Venerable warriors, just the shockwaves alone could instantly kill most Martial Emperor realm warriors.

Tap, tap, tap...

Bloodbath was forced back dozens of steps before he could stabilize his body after the collision. On the other side, Ling Chen only took a couple of steps back. From this first exchange, one could tell that Ling Chen has come out on top.

" What?"

Bloodbath cried out in shock with a terrified and surprised look on his face. He couldn't believe what he just witnessed! with his peak Martial Venerable strength, as well as his peak Heaven Rank weapon, he had lost this first exchange against someone that had just broken through the late stage of the Martial Venerable.

Before Ling Chen had absorbed the blood and the life essence of the 3rd hall master, he was merely a peak middle-stage of the Martial Venerable. However, after capturing the 3rd hall master, with his abundance of blood and life essence, he was able to move a step further and break through the early stage of the late martial venerable realm.

As a peak martial venerable realm expert, Bloodbath was able to sense Ling Chen's increase of strength each time he devoured one of his hall masters. It was also the reason why he believed that Ling Chen still wasn't his opponent even after Ling Chen had absorbed the blood and life essence of the 3rd hall master.

With his peak Martial Venerable strength, how could a newly promoted late-stage Martial Venerable be his opponent? However, that first exchange suddenly proved him otherwise.

"Did you think that you could defeat me now after I absorbed the blood and life essence of five of your hall masters." Ling Chen said in cold tone as he was looking at the surprised and terrified look of Bloodbath with a look of disdain on his face.

At this moment, Ling Chen portrayed a mighty image as he stood in the air with his dark hair fluttered uncontrollably. His eyes were cold and ruthless, like a peerless twisted devil that killed without blinking.

" Hurry up and become part of me." Ling Chen shouted as he dashed towards Bloodbath with his long dark scythe. At this moment, he was done being on the defensive.

If it was before, Ling Chen wouldn't have dared to pounce towards Bloodbath, a peak Martial Venerable alone. However, after absorbing the blood and life essence of two Martial Sovereign realm warriors and three Martial Venerable realm warriors, Bloodbath who was a peak Martial venerable no longer posed a threat to him. He might seem a little bit arrogant or conceited, but he indeed possessed the power to have such an attitude at the moment.

Seeing how Ling Chen who not too long ago was running away from him like a stray dog, took the initiative to attack him on his own volition. Bloodbath felt humiliated.

To get rid of this humiliation, the best method was to cut Ling Chen into millions of pieces.

Before, he had estimated that he would be able to care of Ling Chen in a matter of minutes even after he had broken through the late stage of the Martial venerable. However, judging from the current situation, that would be difficult.

" Die." Furiously roared out Bloodbath at the approaching Ling Chen as he held his long battle-ax in the air.

Meanwhile, a wave of dark true qi erupted from within his body as it flowed through his large battle-ax which he then slashed towards Ling Chen continuously.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swosh! Swoosh!

At the same time, wave after wave of dark red true qi energy shot out from his large bloody battle-ax towards Ling Chen. The endless battle-ax dark red energy was shaped like arcs. Each one of them was very sharp and carried an extremely oppressive force. They were like a dense torrential rain that enveloped the approaching Ling Chen.

Even when faced with this practically endless and insane large battle-ax energy that was coming towards him like a tsunami with no escape route, Ling Chen still bravely charged towards them like a war god. His face remained expressionless with his cold eyes that were indifferent without the slightest ripple of fear.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The Long dark scythe in his hand seemed as though it had eyes as it slashed and swept the endless large battle-ax energy. Ling Chen dodged the ones that he was able to dodge and crushed the ones that he wasn't able to dodge.

Upon seeing how Ling Chen was able to effortlessly dodge and crush his barrage of attacks, Bloodbath's countenance became uglier by the minutes.

Soon, Ling Chen quickly arrived in front of Bloodbath after he had crushed every single one of his battle-ax energy and slashed his long dark scythe towards him which seemed like a spirit of the night that had unfolded its sharp claws.

Bang!"

As if he was already prepared for that, Bloodbath quickly raised his long battle-ax and blocked the incoming attack again. Upon the collision, Bloodbath was sent flying a hundred of meters away like a cannonball before he could stabilize himself.

Seeing this, the terror on Bloodbath's face intensified. It wasn't that Bloodbath had gotten weaker, but rather Ling Chen had started to get used to his newfound power.

Without even given Bloodbath the chance to breathe, Ling Chen pounced towards him again as he unleashed a torrential of scythe's strikes.

In the dark sky above, in less than two minutes, Bloodbath and Ling Chen had exchanged dozens of strikes. Furthermore, the more Bloodbath fought, the more frightened he became. He had used all of his battle techniques and hidden tricks in this intense battle, yet he was still unable to have the advantage.

To make matter worse, It seemed as though Ling Chen was getting stronger and stronger by the second as they fought. Each of his strikes was getting heavier and heavier. If it wasn't for the fact that his large battle-ax was a peak Heaven rank weapon, it would have shattered into pieces long ago.

If the situation went on like this, perhaps he would truly become this little demon's nutrient as well. However, running away it's not a choice at this moment. He still had to kill this little demon even if it didn't seem possible because the fate of his empire was at stake at the moment.

Soon, Bloodbath's power started to weaken as he was coughing out blood from his mouth every time he blocked one of Ling Chen's attacks. Seeing this, Bloodbath knew that he was at his limit and the battle was lost.

"Now, its time to become part of my strength," Ling Chen said with an evil smile on his face as he was looking at the weaken Bloodbath. Although he had taken him some time, it was time to harvest the fruit of his labor which was the blood and life essence of a peak Martial venerable warrior.

Although he might not be able to break through the legendary Martial Saint realm with it, the blood and life essence of Bloodbath would be enough to ripen the black lightning fruit of creation which Ling Chen had long been anticipated.

"Hahahahaha, I can't believe I, the legendary Bloodbath, whose name instill fear into the hearts of countless people throughout the Heaven Desolate Region will fall into the hand of a little brat like you."

" It's my mistake. I should have killed you the moment I saw you." Bloodbath said with a regretful and dejected look on his face. His heart was full of bitterness. He couldn't believe he left such a disaster behind because of his greed.

He originally thought that even though Ling Chen had the power to devourer other warrior's blood and life essence to increase his power, he could still take care of him before he grew strong enough to threaten him. However, the reality before him tonight allowed him to understand that he had underestimated Ling Chen's cunningness as well as his heaven-defying devouring abilities.

"Enough talk, It's time to become part of me." Ling Chen yelled as he dashed towards Bloodbath with a devilish smile on his face.

Seeing Ling Chen who had dashed toward him at an astonishing speed in order to kill him and absorbed his life essence and blood, Bloodbath didn't raise his weapon to defend himself nor did he run.

Instead, he gently took off his mask and revealed his true face for the first time to someone after countless years. The man whose true identity and face that has been a mystery to countless warriors throughout the Heaven Desolate Region had suddenly taken off his mask willingly and showed his true face to the approaching Ling Chen.

"Boy, you see this face. This is the face that will hunt you down and kill everyone you hold dear." Bloodbath said with an icy cold tone.

Though Ling Chen didn't know what Bloodbath meant by that. However, If Ling Jian was there at the moment, he would have been shocked because Bloodbath looked exactly like his grandfather, the Emperor of the Yan Empire.

Boom!"

As soon as Ling Chen got really close to him, Bloodbath suddenly exploded into countless pieces as his blood sprayed like fireworks and scalding rain of flesh fell into the sky.

"No" Angrily yelled out Ling Chen as he watched his fruit labor gone to waste right before his very eyes. At the same time, his body was sent flying like a cannonball due to the energy shockwaves.

Bloodbath chose to self-destruct himself instead of letting Ling Chen absorbed his blood and life essence.
