That fiend emperor laughed out loud and said, "Haha, good! Go and deal with that bunch of fellows for her. Remember, don't kill them. I want to make them all become fiend slaves!"
"Yes, Master!"
Watching that Exalt become a fiend slave helplessly, the other 11 Exalts all could not help feeling a chill down their spines, having a feeling of the fox mourning the death of a hare.
The fiend race's fiendish sense was too tyrannical. It did not permit them to resist at all before they were directly devilized.
At this rate, wouldn't the fiend emperor side becomes stronger and stronger, while their side becomes weaker and weaker?
Unable to run even if they fled, unable to beat them if they fought too. What to do?
"Big Brother Netherkill, fight it out with them! At this rate, everyone is dead!" Blazing Fire shouted fiercely.
Netherkill's gaze turned cold, and he said with a nod, "Fine! Now that the story's played out like this, we can only take a final plunge!"
The Netherkill who prepared for a fight to the death suddenly erupted with a powerful aura. A surge of murderous aura that swept away all obstacles swept towards the fiend emperors.
Seeing this scene, all the Exalts felt a great boost in confidence.
Netherkill was the one who was the most unfathomable among these people. Once he brought out his true strength, it was only right that he would not lose to these fiend emperors at the very least.
Who knew that those fiend emperors thought nothing of Netherkill at all, and instead, they burst into laughter as one said, "Haha! This one's strength is not bad. He's qualified enough to be our fiend slave! Although the others are also Tier 9 strength, they are still a little lacking."
Facing such a berserk murderous air, Mu Ta was not cowed in the least, and directly charged forward towards the murderous aura and was actually not affected at all.
Boom!
Under an attack, it was still Mu Ta who took the absolute upper-hand.
When Mu Ta attacked, the other fiend emperors did not idle as well, both sides directly tangling together in battle.
But the current situation was far from good. The people on the fiend emperors' side became more and more and already occupied a crushing advantage.
It was just a matter of time for the Exalts' side to lose.
But at the same time, a fiend emperor pestered Ye Yuan. He was clearly quite fearful of Ye Yuan and did not dare to approach too close. But if Ye Yuan wanted to leave, he absolutely did not allow it too.
Just like this, both parties were caught in a stalemate here.
Bang!
Another Exalt was injured, then taken control of by a group of fiend emperors.
Ye Yuan's expression fell slightly too. He did not expect that there would actually be so many fiend emperor powerhouses here. Could it be that he must bring out the Sacred Dragon Token and Vast Heaven Pagoda now?
These two items were his final trump cards. Not reaching the eleventh hour, they must absolutely not be exposed.
Ye Yuan thought about it and still decided to wait and see.
The fiend race was seriously too difficult to deal with. Although these fiend emperors were not as powerful as Fiendgod Jia Lan, they had only experienced 100 thousand years of suppression. Furthermore, their treatment was completely different from Jia Lan's. Therefore, each and every one of their deterioration was not that severe.
In contrast, these fiend emperors were more difficult to deal with.
Speaking of which, if not for Jia Lan looking for trouble and wanting to seize possession of Ye Yuan back then, he would not have been severely wounded and sent away in defeat either.
The Soul Suppressing Pearl's damage to Jia Lan was too great.
Ye Yuan observed the battle by the side, his expression became increasingly ugly too. One Exalt after another was taken control of by the fiend emperors, and became the other party's fiend slaves instead.
Furthermore, after becoming fiend slaves, the Exalts' strength actually soared by a large margin again.
Under such circ.u.mstances, it was completely impossible for the Exalts' side to reverse the situation.
Ye Yuan quietly revolved the incantation and was currently planning on bringing out the Sacred Dragon Token. Right then, an unforeseen accident occurred again!
Boom!
A violent explosion sounded out and actually directly blasted the entire group of fiend emperors flying! Even the strongest Mu Ta had no strength to retaliate in the slightest under this blow.
Ye Yuan's expression changed. Focusing his eyes and looking over, he was surprised. He did not know why Netherkill's disposition changed drastically all of a sudden
And this sort of transformation gave people a feeling of heart palpitation.
"You guys are really useless! You can't even deal with a few fiend emperors! Since that's the case, it's useless to keep you guys too!" Netherkill slowly said.
Chapter 922 - 30 Thousand-Year Hoax
Netherkill was floating in mid-air. The corners of his clothing was rustling, with violent, murderous air rampaging all over the place. His aura was extremely terrifying!
The current Netherkill became like a completely different person from before and actually gave people a feeling of unrivaledness.
Even those fiend emperors also looked at Netherkill with somber expressions and actually did not dare to attack anymore.
Under the mask, that pair of eyes were seemingly able to shock people to the core, making people not dare to look him in the eye.
"Nurturing you all for so long, this Seat bestowed upon you status and glory. It's time for you all to repay this seat!" Netherkill slowly opened his mouth, but it made all of the Exalts' hearts tighten.
"Big Brother Netherkill, you … what do you mean?"
Blazing Fire's expression was very ugly, and a hint of foreboding premonition birthed in his heart.
"You'll know right away!"
Netherkill slowly lifted his two palms. A tremendous suction force enveloped everyone.
With Netherkill as the center, it formed an enormous vortex. The affected scope of this vortex virtually filled the entire space.
Puhwark!
A slaughter general who had not been taken possession of yet exploded all of a sudden. He did not even let out a tragic cry.
A stream of black gas gushed out from within his body, and it directly entered into Netherkill's body.
Ye Yuan saw it clearly. That mass of black gas was precisely the hallmark of the Slaughter Concept!
Puu, puu, puu …
Very soon, a series of explosion sounds rang out. Time bombs seemed to have been planted within the bodies of those slaughter generals, exploding without any warning signs!
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Streams of Slaughter Concept were like many streams of small creeks, finally converging into the great river.
"Ugh …"
Si Yin suddenly m.o.a.n.e.d lightly, an anguished expression showed on her face, and she actually collapsed directly.
But right at the instant she fell over, she was pulled into someone's arms by a broad arm. Focusing her eyes to look, who could it be if not Ye Yuan?
"Ye Yuan, you … you're fine?"
Si Yin's head was splitting at present. It was as if there was a burst of qi inside her body churning incessantly, her entire person on the verge of bursting. But looking at Ye Yuan's appearance, he was actually completely fine.
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Just some small trick. How can it be that easy to want to make me, Ye Yuan, fall for it?"
"This … Just what in the world … is going on?" Si Yin endured the pain and asked.
Ye Yuan's gaze looked over towards the all-powerful Netherkill and said with a cold smile, "The Asura Arena's Slaughter Concept is merely a hoax that has persisted for 30 thousand years. And you all, these Exalts, are merely the hosts for the Slaughter Concept than other people are farming out to. Once they raise you guys to maturity, they natural
ly have to butcher."
There was no free lunch in this world. Being able to obtain Slaughter Concept without needing to comprehend, how could this sort of bargain possibly occur?
It was just that the Asura Arena did it very covertly. Outsiders had no knowledge of it all along, that was all.
Hearing Ye Yuan's words, Si Yin could not help revealing a look of despair.
In just this short while, those slaughter generals all perished from their bodies exploding, while the Slaughter Concepts converged into Netherkill's body.
Netherkill's aura became increasingly stronger. But Ye Yuan knew that this was merely just the appetizer.
These Exalts were the real feast!
The Slaughter Concept in the Exalts were all eight stars. Each and every one of their strength was incomparably formidable. Absorbing these Exalts' Slaughter Concept, Netherkill's strength would probably reach an unfathomable degree.
"Puhwark …"
A fiend emperor finally could not endure it, and his fleshy body directly exploded.
"Ahh! Damn it! My fleshy body!"
That fiend emperor never would have thought that the fleshy body which he had just acquired would actually be gone so quickly.
But the fiend race was indeed incomparably fearsome. Although their fleshy body was gone, they still transformed into a mass of fiendish shadow.
Puu, puu, puu …
A surge of bizarre aura wandered inside the fiend emperors' bodies. Finally, all of them exploded.
Ye Yuan took a look at Si Yin and finally still let out a sigh and said, "Si Yin, if you trust me, open up your divine soul. No matter what I do, don't resist. Once something goes wrong, your soul will dissipate!"
Currently, Si Yin's body was like it had swelled up. Her entire body was becoming round and plump like she was filled with air.
Very clearly, she could not sustain much longer anymore as well. Among the group of Exalts, her strength was the weakest. When it was the Exalts' turn, she would definitely be the first to bear the brunt.
Although Si Yin did not have city-toppling peerless looks, she was also a beauty hard to come by. Her state made people feel pity and protectiveness endlessly.
Of course, the reason why Ye Yuan chose to save her was not that he had a tender heart for the fair s.e.x, but because he felt that she still belonged to the type that could be saved among these Exalts.
Hearing Ye Yuan's words, a glimmer of hope along with astonishment finally emerged in Si Yin's eyes that had given up all hope.
The entire Asura Arena was a hoax, and the origin of this hoax was the Absolute Kill Token. Ye Yuan had the Absolute Kill Token on him too. Why was he totally fine?
The secrets on this guy's body were seriously too many.
Hearing Ye Yuan's words, Si Yin completely opened her mind. A strand of warm soul force flowed in.
Ye Yuan plunged into Si Yin's divine soul with ease and familiarity and started searching.
Exploring other people's divine soul this sort of thing was incomparably perilous to other martial artists. A single mishap would cause irreparable damage to other people's divine soul.
Upon injuring the divine soul, if it was minor, their strength would be greatly diminished. If it was severe, they would become retarded, even die immediately.
But Ye Yuan's attainments in the divine soul was the top-notch even when looking at the entire Divine Realm. His soul force wandered inside Si Yin's divine soul with ease and familiarity, seemingly searching for something.
Not long after, a black seed appeared in front of Ye Yuan.
That seed had already germinated and actually started growing! This black seed was the main culprit!
Back then when Ye Yuan merged with the Absolute Kill Token, this black seed also attempted to grow inside his divine soul but was blotted out by Ye Yuan quietly.
Ye Yuan's methods were extremely covert. Even Netherkill could not possibly discover a trace of an inkling either.
Seemingly noticing Ye Yuan, that seed seemed to have suffered a fright, abruptly releasing an attack at Ye Yuan.
Ye Yuan gave a cold laugh. His soul force swept out, dispersing this attack to nothingness.
Sensing the difficulty to handle Ye Yuan, that seed actually transformed and became human-shaped. That appearance was actually no different from Netherkill.
"Brat, this Seat advise you to not poke your nose into other people's affairs! Otherwise, this woman's soul will dissipate!" Netherkill voiced a warning.
Ye Yuan's soul force condensed and also transformed into human form and said with a cold smile, "A mere divine sense clone dares to threaten your Grandpa Ye? Want to exterminate her divine soul, you can very well give it a try!"
"Humph! Since you want to fight it out to the death, then this Seat will fulfill your wish!"
Netherkill snorted coldly. That body which materialized and formed erupted with an extremely powerful soul force. It was actually going to destroy this divine sense clone and perish together with Si Yin!
Ye Yuan gave a cold laugh, both hands firing out a hundred spells as fast as lightning. A stream of gentle force wrapped this divine sense clone up.
No matter how he exploded, he was also unable to harm Si Yin the least bit!
Chapter 923 - Exterminating Fiend Emperors!
In the extreme recesses of the Heavenly Slaughter Pit, a handsome man dressed entirely in black clothing suddenly snapped open both eyes, his brows involuntarily furrowing.
His gaze seemed to be able to pierce through the void, looking towards the vast distance.
His face was expressionless. It radiated awe without showing anger.
After a long time, he slowly opened his mouth and said, "Forget it, this Seat has already reached the critical moment. This matter will be handed to him to do!"
Finished talking, the black-clothed man slowly shut his eyes again. A wave of heinous, murderous air crept around his body.
...
Looking at that strand of divine sense turning to nothing, Ye Yuan's brows knitted slightly too.
Just a mere strand of divine sense had such power. Then how powerful was the original body's strength?
Only he, Ye Yuan, could do this. If it was somebody else, it was absolutely impossible to eradicate the divine sense so effortlessly.
"That fellow's strength is becoming more unfathomable!"
Ye Yuan heaved a slight sigh, his soul force retreating like tidewaters, returning into his own divine soul.
At this time, Si Yin's body recovered to that lithe and graceful appearance. Her gaze turned to look at Ye Yuan elegantly, feelings of gratitude needed no words.
She was still leaning in Ye Yuan's embrace, her posture indescribably ambiguous. She hurriedly straightened her body and was just about to give thanks to Ye Yuan, but her body suddenly turned stiff, feeling a prickle at her back.
Ye Yuan smiled lightly and said, "No need to care about him. He's currently busy with retrieving the Slaughter Concepts. How would he have time to come and care about you?"
Without even guessing, one would also know that Netherkill definitely noticed something. That was why he would sweep his gaze over.
But just as Ye Yuan said, he was currently busy digesting the reclaimed Slaughter Concepts and had no time to spare for other things at all.
Puu, puu, puu …
People's bodies exploded one by one. Netherkill's aura became more and more terrifying.
Very soon, the fiend emperors were actually completely killed off just like this.
But Netherkill did not have the slightest intention of stopping. This time, it was the Exalts' turn.
A tragic scream sounded over. That Exalt who was the very first to be devilized directly exploded.
Blazing Fire's face revealed an expression of despair. His body already swelled up like a giant balloon at this time, looking on the verge of exploding.
He never would have thought that the one to kill him, in the end, was actually Exalt Netherkill!
Ye Yuan looked at Blazing Fire calmly and said with a smile, "Save you? You wanted to kill me time and again and still want this Little Lord, me, to save you? You're thinking too much!"
Blazing Fire knelt down with a thud and said to Ye Yuan, "I-I'm begging you! It was all me who had eyes but failed to see! I deserve death! I swear to the heaven, I absolutely won't anymore in the future! I beg you, save …"
With a burst, the arrogant Blazing Fire exploded into minced meat just like that.
Seeing this scene, Si Yin shuddered in fear.
In these ten years, she and Blazing Fire and the rest schemed against each other. But now, he died like that in front of her. This made her unwittingly have a feeling of the fox mourning the death of the hare in her heart.
"W-Why is it like this? I've never heard before that the Asura Sea would actually have such a thing! Who in the world is Exalt Netherkill?" Si Yin muttered.
She was full of suspicions right now and totally did not understand everything that was happening in front of her.
But Ye Yuan said with a smile, "Then do you know why each time they entered the Heavenly Slaughter Pit, there would be Exalts dying? Don't the Exalts get replaced by new ones a little too quickly?"
Hearing these words, Si Yin was frightened inwardly and blurted out, "Could it be that … they were all killed by Netherkill?"
Ye Yuan shook his head and said, "That might not be so. But how they die isn't important. What's important is that after they die, the Slaughter Concepts would definitely return to Netherkill there."
Si Yin s.u.c.k.e.d in a cold breath. This way, wouldn't they all be vessels for Netherkill to store and cultivate Slaughter Concept?
At this time, that enormous vortex finally came to a standstill. Netherkill slowly floated down.
The current Netherkill was already like a completely different person from before. Regardless whether was it strength or disposition, it all underwent an enormous change.
The Netherkill in the past only looked a little older compared to the other Exalts. But at this very moment, his body gave off the air of a king, making people not dare to look directly.
