Chapter 559 Huan Yuan escapes, Liu Yun self-destructs
Boom~~
The crimson axe shadow struck down like lightning, shattering Huan Yehua's body into dust, leaving not even a trace behind.
The divine soul that had been trying to escape was completely annihilated by this attack, as if it had never existed.
"Fifth Elder!"
Huan Yuan, who had been thrown far away, witnessed this scene. His eyes instantly turned bloodshot and his gaze was filled with rage. The anger and grief in his heart erupted like a volcano.
His voice was hoarse and shrill, as if it came from the depths of hell.
"Humans, I will make you pay a terrible price...!"
Huan Yuan's gaze was fixed on Cheng Yaojin in the distance like a venomous snake. Although he knew that his situation was extremely unfavorable, he still forced himself to utter a harsh remark.
Immediately, he took out a stone that shimmered with a ghostly blue light from his pocket and crushed it without hesitation.
puff~~
As the stone shattered, Huan Yuan suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood essence, his face instantly turning ashen white, as if all the blood in his body had been drained.
His body trembled slightly, and his breath became extremely weak.
Buzz~~
At that very moment, the space around Huan Yuan suddenly distorted, as if stirred by an invisible giant hand. A pitch-black spatial rift rapidly opened, like the gaping maw of a giant beast, instantly swallowing Huan Yuan's body.
Immediately afterwards, the crack closed, and Huan Yuan's figure vanished without a trace.
Cheng Yaojin arrived here the instant Huan Yuan disappeared.
His brows were furrowed, his gaze sharp as he carefully sensed the fluctuations in the surrounding space.
However, this space has become extremely chaotic, and any traces left in the void have been completely erased, making it impossible to track Huan Yuan's escape route.
"hateful!"
Cheng Yaojin roared and swung his giant axe, creating a sharp gust of wind.
The axe flashed like a rainbow, splitting a small mountain on the seabed in two.
The boulder crashed down, stirring up a cloud of muddy sand, and the seawater churned incessantly.
After venting his anger, Cheng Yaojin took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed his agitation.
He knew this was not the time for regret; he had to reunite with Chen Qingzhi as soon as possible. Now that Huan Yuan had escaped, he couldn't let the other two enemies get away too.
Not long after, Cheng Yaojin found Chen Qingzhi. However, when he saw the scene before him, he was stunned.
Chen Qingzhi stood proudly in the middle of the ocean, holding a long spear, with bloodstains still remaining on the tip of the spear.
At his feet lay a cold corpse lying silently on the seabed; it was Liu Lan of the Tide Clan.
Opposite Chen Qingzhi stood a figure covered in wounds, none other than Liu Yun of the Tide Clan.
Chen Qingzhi and Cheng Yaojin had completely different fighting styles.
He did not attack Liu Yun first, but instead targeted Liu Lan, who was already seriously injured.
Liu Lan was already seriously injured and was completely unable to withstand Chen Qingzhi's fierce offensive.
Despite Liu Yun's desperate attempts to stop him, Liu Lan was still killed by Chen Qingzhi with a single shot in a short time.
Then, Chen Qingzhi turned to engage in a fierce battle with Liu Yun. At this time, Liu Yun was already at his limit, with blood constantly seeping from his wounds and his breathing becoming extremely disordered.
When he saw Cheng Yaojin arrive, his face turned ashen, and a hint of despair flashed in his eyes.
He knew that he had nowhere to run today.
Even if he manages to escape, his clan will never forgive him.
As the young master's protector, he actually watched helplessly as the young master was killed right before his eyes.
The clan chief will not let him off easily for such dereliction of duty.
"General Cheng? You've already taken care of things on your end?"
Chen Qingzhi was slightly taken aback when he saw Cheng Yaojin, and then asked a question.
His tone was calm, but there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.
Upon hearing Chen Qingzhi's question, Cheng Yaojin's face immediately turned ashen.
Already in a bad mood because of Huan Yuan's escape, he felt even more irritable at this moment.
Not wanting to lose face in front of his colleagues, he remained silent, his hand gripping the axe handle trembling slightly.
Upon seeing this, Chen Qingzhi understood.
He didn't say anything more, only nodded slightly. After spending this time together, he already knew Cheng Yaojin's personality very well.
If Cheng Yaojin had successfully completed his mission, he would surely be showing off triumphantly right now, instead of remaining silent as he is now.
Clearly, something has happened to Cheng Yaojin.
"General Cheng, I'm getting a bit tired too, so I'll leave this man to you..."
Chen Qingzhi smiled slightly and spoke in a relaxed tone. His words carried a hint of consideration, clearly offering Cheng Yaojin a way out.
Upon hearing this, Cheng Yaojin was slightly taken aback, and then a look of gratitude flashed in his eyes.
He understood that Chen Qingzhi was comforting himself with actions, not empty words.
Compared to verbal comfort, this practical action is clearly more effective in soothing his current sense of defeat.
Cheng Yaojin didn't mince words; he stepped forward and fixed his gaze on Liu Yun with eyes as sharp as knives.
He slightly raised the giant axe in his hand, and his whole body exuded a murderous aura like a tidal wave, like a demon god emerging from the abyss, making people shudder.
"Humans, you're in deep trouble! Do you know who you just killed? That was the young patriarch of my Tide Clan! His father was a powerful Earth Immortal!"
"You killed him, so prepare for the Tide Clan's furious revenge! Hahaha!"
As Liu Yun saw Cheng Yaojin approaching, a maniacal smile appeared on his face.
Since the situation was hopeless, he no longer had any scruples and simply vented all the resentment and fear in his heart.
His laughter was filled with endless mockery and despair, as if he could already see the tragic end of humanity's future.
Before he finished speaking, Liu Yun suddenly rushed towards Cheng Yaojin, his weapon gleaming with a cold light, carrying with it a final frenzy and determination.
Cheng Yaojin smiled coldly, and suddenly swung his giant axe, bringing with it a sharp gust of wind.
The axe flashed like a rainbow, striking directly at the vital point of the flowing clouds.
However, Liu Yun showed no sign of stopping him, his spiritual energy surging, and his eyes flashing with madness.
"No, he's going to blow himself up!"
Chen Qingzhi, who was watching from a distance, was stunned for a moment before quickly realizing what was happening.
Cheng Yaojin's pupils suddenly contracted, and alarm bells rang in his mind.
Although he was brave and fearless, he also knew how terrifying the power of a mid-stage Human Immortal Realm expert's self-destruction was, especially in the deep sea, where the surging spiritual energy was enough to destroy all living beings within a radius of several miles.
"retreat!"
Cheng Yaojin let out a low roar and retreated rapidly. At the same time, he swung his giant axe, creating a thick barrier of spiritual energy in an attempt to withstand the impending impact.
However, the clouds move even faster.
His body had swelled to its limit, and his skin was covered with cracks, as if it would explode at any moment.
There was no fear in his eyes, only endless madness and resentment.
"Humans, come to hell with me!"
Liu Yun's voice was like the howl of a vengeful ghost, filled with final madness and desperation.
His body exploded completely at that moment, and the violent spiritual power swept around like a tsunami, instantly evaporating the seawater and creating a vacuum zone.
Boom~~
The enormous explosion was deafening, and the seabed sediment was hurled dozens of meters high, causing the seawater to surge wildly and form a huge whirlpool.
Cheng Yaojin's spiritual energy barrier shattered instantly under the impact of the explosion, and his body was sent flying backward, crashing heavily into a giant underwater rock.
"Cough cough..."
Cheng Yaojin coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face turning slightly pale. He barely managed to steady himself, looked up at the center of the explosion, and felt a wave of fear wash over him.
If he hadn't reacted quickly, retreated in time, and set up a spiritual energy barrier, he would probably be seriously injured by now.
Chen Qingzhi, who was some distance away, was also affected by the aftershocks of the explosion, but he was prepared and dodged the strongest impact with a quick movement.
He stood on a towering rock, his gaze fixed solemnly on the epicenter of the explosion.
"This guy actually chose to self-destruct..."
Chen Qingzhi murmured softly, a complex look flashing in his eyes.
The sea gradually calmed down, and only a huge crater remained at the center of the explosion. Liu Yun's figure had long since disappeared without a trace, not even a speck of dust remained.
Chen Qingzhi approached Cheng Yaojin and asked with concern, "General Cheng, are you alright?"
"It's nothing! Just a minor injury!"
Cheng Yaojin shook his head and said.
"I never expected this guy to self-destruct; I underestimated him..."
Cheng Yaojin said with a complicated expression.
He suffered a great blow in today's battle.
Although he killed Huan Yehua, he allowed Huan Yuan to escape.
I was about to fight Liu Yun when he suddenly self-destructed.
"Let's go back! The war should be over by now!"
Chen Qingzhi looked at Cheng Yaojin without saying much. He knew that Cheng Yaojin had to figure this out on his own, and that other people's advice would be useless.
Cheng Yaojin nodded, and then the two of them headed towards the territory of the Great Qin together.
