Everyone’s faces changed. They all had an impression of this skeleton. Wasn’t this that skeleton that was in a stalemate with Ye Yuan earlier?
The skeleton carried a saber, slowly walked in front of the fiendgod step by step, and said coolly, “Jia Lan, long time no see!”
Chapter 842 - Unexpected Turn of Events Again!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Jia Lan, long time no see!”
The skeleton’s words actually had some hint of old friends meeting again.
“You … You’re Tyrannical Saber, Xing Aotian! You actually haven’t died yet!” In the fiendgod’s words, leaked out thick astonishment.
“Dead, long dead! It’s just that you’re not dead, so how can I dare to die completely? Leaving behind a wisp of remnant soul was for the sake of today,” the skeleton said coolly.
The fiendish qi on the fiendgod’s body became increasingly thinner. Clearly, that cut earlier caused tremendous injury to him.
When he heard that, the fiendgod said in a livid rage, “You damn ghost, not being peaceful even after dying! But so what? That cut earlier was still less than one in ten thousand of your heyday! What can you do to me? Even Absolute Heaven couldn’t kill me, just like the likes of you?”
On the skeleton’s face was forever that dead person expression. There naturally would not be any changes.
But he turned to Ye Yuan and said calmly, “Of course I know that I can’t kill you. But Absolute Heaven’s will, there’s bound to be someone who inherits it. If you want to bring disaster upon the human race, it probably won’t be that easy to accomplish!”
The fiendgod looked at the skeleton, and glanced at Ye Yuan again, suddenly letting out a roaring laugh as he said, “You aren’t talking about this boy, right? He’s indeed quite capable, but he’s far too lacking compared to Absolute Heaven! Give him another thousand years, and he also can’t reach Absolute Heaven’s height. Furthermore, do you think that I will give him a thousand year’s time to grow?”
The skeleton said indifferently, “Karma is all destined. I’ve already returned to dust. This is no longer something I can be worried about. As for what extent he can grow to, it will depend on him.”
He turned to Ye Yuan again and said, “Young man, you’ve done very well, far exceeded my expectations. This dignified self has nothing valuable on me. With these countless years, what I’ve learned during my lifetime is already forgotten for the most part as well. These remaining few comprehensions will be imparted to you then.”
Finished talking, the skeleton extended a finger and tapped on Ye Yuan’s glabella.
Ye Yuan’s entire body shuddered, many information instantly appearing in his head. Seeing this information, Ye Yuan was unbelievably shocked, because this information was none other than precisely the divine inscriptions that Ye Yuan were very familiar with!
Except, these divine inscriptions, Ye Yuan was not familiar with them. There was actually not one duplicate with the ones Father imparted him!
But this Tyrannical Saber Xing Aotian’s divine inscriptions were not many; there were only a scanty few several dozen words.
He previously said that his memories before his death were already incomplete, it was most likely this reason.
“Young man, the matters hereafter will be handed to you!” After saying this sentence, the skeleton no longer made a sound.
A peerless powerhouse of his generation finally had even this final strand of consciousness in this world dissipate away.
These countless years, what was frittered away was not just Fiendgod Jia Lan’s strength, but also depleted Xing Aotian’s residual thought.
Until today, he was already like a dying lamp without oil. Otherwise, there was no way he would not have any movements at all with people secretly laying down this sacrificial altar forces.
Presumably, he also knew that Jia Lan coming into being was already unstoppable. Hence, he held back a burst of energy to leave behind this final cut, in order to severely wound Jia Lan.
However, Ye Yuan judged that Xing Aotian should still have the ability to unleash a saber cut. Except, this cut did not have great significance to Jia Lan.
Coincidentally, he ran into the Vast Heaven Stele’s successor here.
In the end, he chose to impart the divine inscriptions in this final trace of residual thought to Ye Yuan.
Bang!
The long saber in the skeleton’s hand fell to the ground. His skeleton frame also fell apart thoroughly, without even a trace of essence energy on it anymore.
Ye Yuan revealed a complicated expression but was filled with great respect towards Xing Aotian.
Even though it was just two encounters of fate, Xing Aotian’s pride and loyalty left a deep impression on him.
A trace of residual thought guarded the Unparalleled Ancient Fiend Sealing Grand Array for several tens of thousands of years. This persistence and unswerving will were not what the average person could have.
And all of his actions were for the sake of the human race’s righteous cause!
Ye Yuan knelt on the ground and gave a kowtow to Xing Aotian’s bone remains most respectfully, saying deferentially, “Senior, have a safe trip! Many thanks to Senior’s grace of teaching. What Senior has yet to accomplish, let Ye Yuan finish it!”
Finished talking, Ye Yuan lightly formed an incantation with his hand and put away Xing Aotian’s bone remains.
Finished doing these, Ye Yuan slowly walked in front of Jia Lan and said icily, “Fiendgod Jia Lan, right? I know that I can’t kill you now, but the taste of the Cleansing Sandal Sacred Flame, you’ve sampled it too! I’m going to seal you now and let Fiery burn you every hour every minute! There will come a day when I’ll utterly burn you into nothingness!”
Jia Lan suffered Xing Aotian’s blow, at this time, the fiendish qi on his body was very faint, and he did not have the ability to resist Ye Yuan’s sealing at all anymore.
Hearing Ye Yuan’s words, Jia Lan cried out shrilly, “Brat, you dare to seal this Seat? Do you know what kind of existence this seat is? Let me tell you …”
“Huhu, do you think I dare or not?” Ye Yuan smiled coldly, but his hands already started to cast and lay down the formation.
“Don’t, don’t! Young man, as long as you can let me go, we can become sworn brothers! I can let you possess unbelievably powerful strength. In the future, this Divine Realm, if there’s half for me, there will be half for you!”
Jia Lan was finally afraid. The proud fiendgod actually lowered his noble head to plead for mercy from Ye Yuan.
But Ye Yuan did not pay any attention and was still setting up the formation and casting spells.
Right at this moment, all the hair on Ye Yuan’s body stood on its end. An immense sense of danger hit him.
Without the slightest hesitation, Ye Yuan raised his speed to the limits, fleeing from the area just now.
Boom!
The region Ye Yuan was standing at previously was blasted until dirt scattered everywhere at this time.
“Tsk tsk, this brat indeed has some skill, to actually be so vigilant.”
“We expended such a huge effort before releasing Lord Jia Lan. How can we allow you to seal him again?”
Two black-clothed people appeared in front of Jia Lan. They were precisely those two Holy Followers!
After the two of them landed, they turned to Jia Lan and saluted as they said, “Congratulations to Lord Jia Lan for descending upon the human world anew!”
“Hahaha! Good! Very good! Turns out that it’s you two who aided this seat to break the Unparalleled Ancient Fiend Sealing Grand Array. However … why did you take so long to come?” Jia Lan’s tone suddenly changed as he said in a solemn voice.
Those two Holy Followers hurriedly said, “Lord Jia Lan, forgive our sins. The two of us left in order to prepare for Lord Jia Lan’s blood feed.”
One of the black-clothed Holy Followers casually waved a hand. A bunch of martial art
ists appeared in front of everyone. They were precisely Wei Cheng and the others who had already left.
Wei Cheng’s and the others’ dantians were sealed presently, unable to use even a trace of essence energy. They were like lambs awaiting slaughter.
When Ye Yuan saw this scene, his expression could not help changing greatly.
If Jia Lan absorbed them as blood feed, he would probably soar greatly in strength immediately.
The moment Jia Lan heard, he was immediately overjoyed. The black qi on his body directly extended out, engulfing a dozen over martial artists right away.
“Ahh … Help! Young Lord Ye, help!”
That group of martial artists let out shrill cries and were actually begging Ye Yuan for help.
But those two black-clothed men, their strengths were clearly very formidable. Even Blackwind might not be a match either, let alone him.
Gulp … Gulp …
The fiendgod seemed to be digesting. Very soon, those dozen over martial artists fell silent …
Chapter 843 - Seizing Possession Again?

“Hahaha! Boy, didn’t you want to seal me? Bring it on!”
After devouring a dozen over martial artists all at once, Jia Lan’s aura recovered considerably in no time.
Ye Yuan had a solemn look. He had a feeling of shooting himself in the foot.
He originally thought that bringing more people in would mean he had more helpers. He did not expect that they actually all became Jia Lan’s blood feed in the end, boosting the enemy’s strength instead.
“Wei Cheng, you really are a pig! We went all out before scarcely beating the fiendgod to heavy injuries. You bunch of idiots actually helped him recover so much in a short while!” Sheng Jun seriously could not hold it in anymore and let loose a torrent of abuse.
Wei Cheng had his dantian sealed currently. His hands and legs were restricted too, completely unable to move.
He did not take in Sheng Jun’s cursing at all. His entire person was currently trembling, a look of despair showed in his eyes once more.
Earlier, the scene of Jia Lan gobbling up the rest, the shock it gave him was too intense.
At the thought of himself about to become a meal in this fiendgod’s stomach, Wei Cheng’s collapsed internally.
“L-Lord Fienggod, I … I’m willing to become a dog of yours! I beg you … beg you not to kill me!” Wei Cheng struggled, kneeling down towards Jia Lan.
Seeing this scene, Sheng Jun was utterly speechless. He knew that the scolding just now was completely playing music to a pig.
He seriously could not figure out how this kind of spineless moron was selected to become the Young Lord by the Cloud Watchtower Holy Land.
“Oh? You want to serve me as your master?” Jia Lan slowly came in front of Wei Cheng.
Wei Cheng sweat profusely and hurriedly said, “Yes, yes, yes! Lord Fiendgod, I’m willing to serve you as my master! As long as you don’t kill me, you can make me do anything!”
“Wei Cheng, you’re the Young Lord selected personally by the Holy Lord! What kind of price did the Cloud Watchtower Holy Land expended in order to groom you?! You actually dare betray the Cloud Watchtower Holy Land now!” shouted a Cloud Watchtower Holy Land’s elder. He reproached Wei Cheng with boundless rage.
But Wei Cheng said without any shame, “Fine birds select their roosts! Lord Fiendgod is an existence who’s going to unify the Divine Realm! What difference is there in me following Lord Fiendgod and being at the Cloud Watchtower Holy Land?”
“You!” That elder was angered by Wei Cheng’s shamelessness until he shook all over.
But his essence energy was sealed and completely could not do anything to Wei Cheng.
“Hahaha, good! Good that you have this heart. I’ll give you an opportunity! Capture this punk for me, and I’ll naturally take you in to be my fiend servant!” Jia Lan said with a big laugh.
Wei Cheng was overjoyed and kowtowed to Jia Lan fervently as he said, “Thank you, Lord Fiendgod! Thank you, Lord Fiendgod!”
“Remove the seal on his body! Jia Lan said to the two Holy Followers.
The two Holy Followers nodded their heads to acknowledge his instruction and cast a spell to remove the seal on Wei Cheng’s body.
Recovering his freedom, Wei Cheng’s face made people abhor even more. He slowly arrived in front of Ye Yuan and said with a smug look, “Ye Yuan, didn’t expect it, right? You finally still landed in my hands! Today, I’ll make you die very horribly! Without that black flood dragon’s help, I see how you still swagger before others!”
Prior to this, Blackwind was also wounded considerably under Jia Lan’s blow.
At this time, there were another two Holy Followers glaring like ravening tigers by the side. They would not give him the opportunity to make a move at all.
Therefore, Ye Yuan had to face the Ninth Level Heaven Enlightenment Wei Cheng all alone.
“Master!”
As the servant, Blackwind obviously could not passively watch Ye Yuan get captured.
“Don’t come over! Dealing with this kind of shameless guy, it’s enough by myself!” Ye Yuan said very disdainfully.
“Hahaha, truly shameless boasting! I want to see how you’ll deal with me! Wei Cheng laughed wildly and said.
“Humph! Wouldn’t you know if you come to try it out yourself?!” Ye Yuan said scornfully.
“Reckless, blind thing! Prepare to die!”
Wei Cheng was fiercely triggered by Ye Yuan’s eyes. Ye Yuan’s talent and capabilities made him jealous until he wanted to go crazy.
With the formidable power of Heaven Enlightenment Realm, Wei Cheng attacked towards Ye Yuan.
Wei Cheng’s strength could not be said to not be strong. Unleashing it in full power at this time, it actually gave people a feeling of peerlessness.
“Fiery!”
Boom!
What made everyone’s jaws drop was that this powerful blow of Wei Cheng’s had yet to touch Ye Yuan and he actually flew out backward.
An intense explosion sound rang out of the void in front of Wei Cheng, blasting him flying immediately.
When everyone came back to their senses, there was already an additional youth beside Ye Yuan. How could it be but Fiery?”
All along, Fiery was always one of Ye Yuan’s ace in the hole. Unless forced to, Ye Yuan would not expose Fiery in front of people.
But today’s situation was too difficult to handle. Ye Yuan also had no choice but to let out Fiery’s main body.
Fiery had been cultivating in the Vast Heaven Pagoda all along and had long broken through to Tier 7. Currently, he was already a middle-stage Tier 7 essence fire.
Adding in the fire controlling art Ye Yuan imparted, Fiery’s combat power was right on the brink of late-stage Tier 7.
Just now, Fiery suddenly sneak attacked Wei Cheng. Caught unprepared, Wei Cheng was directly blasted flying out.
Wei Cheng crawled to his feet with a grunt and was just about to hurl all kinds of abuse when a figure already arrived in front of him. It was precisely Ye Yuan!
What Ye Yuan wanted was this effect. How could he give him the chance to catch his breath?
His and Fiery’s cultivation realms both could not compare with Wei Cheng’s. Only by seizing the initiative could there be chances of victory.
Although Wei Cheng’s cultivation realm was high, his fleshy body was more than a grade lower than Ye Yuan’s!
Bang!
A firm and solid punch smashed right onto Wei Cheng’s body. If not for Wei Cheng’s protective essence energy being too strong, this punch would absolutely blow up his fleshy body!
Even so, he was still smashed flying out by Ye Yuan.
“Detonate!”
Fiery was long awaiting eagerly for battle already. Controlling the Cleansing Sandal Sacred Flame behind Wei Cheng, it was another violent explosion!
Wei Cheng’s figure had yet to retreat a few steps when
he was actually blasted back to Ye Yuan’s side.
“Fiery, catch well!”
Another sturdy punch smashed Wei Cheng toward Fiery.
Fiery’s figure appeared behind Wei Cheng again bizarrely. Throwing out his palm, it was another intense explosion.
Just like this, Wei Cheng was treated as a human sandbag by Ye Yuan, beating back and forth non-stop. It was incredibly wretchful.
Seeing this odd scene, everyone was staring wide-eyed, their mouths agape.
Was Ye Yuan really a Boundless Realm martial artist? This kind of strength was simply too heaven-defying!
“That … That youth is an … essence fire! My God! Brother Ye actually has a Tier 7 essence fire that gave birth to a primordial spirit! This kind of lucky encounter is simply heaven-defying!” Sheng Jun was long blank from staring.
“Young Lord is absolutely a person with a great destiny. I truly didn’t expect that he actually still has such a trump card!’ Wu Siyuan muttered under his breath too.
“This boy … Just what origins does he have? His trump cards follow one after another, simply without an end! Not only does he possess a Tier 7 primordial spirit, true dragon body, fifth-stage supreme true intent … However, it’s all too perfect to be my new fleshy body! Heh heh.”
The corners of Jia Lan’s mouth smiled strangely, and he vanished with a whoosh!
Ye Yuan and Wei Cheng were in the midst of fierce fighting. Suddenly, he felt his eyes blur. A stream of black qi tunneled right into his body.
Ye Yuan’s body turned stiff abruptly, while Wei Cheng’s body directly flew out far away.
Chapter 844 - Fleeing in Defeat
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Brother Ye!”
“Young Lord!”
“Big Brother!”
Everyone was greatly shocked when they saw this scene.
The current Ye Yuan was swathed by a cloud of black qi all over his body, his entire person seemingly controlled by something, frozen stiff there.
“This brat is indeed rather peculiar. To be selected by Lord Jia Lan as his new fleshy body, it’s his honor too,” said a Holy Follower.
