Martial Conquest of the Nine Desolates
Chapter 621 - 607: Self-Destruct
CHAPTER 621: CHAPTER 607: SELF-DESTRUCT
The white-haired middle-aged man, in his peak duel, was still able to withdraw, and his cultivation was definitely not beneath him. This discovery brought a chill to the heart of the Taiyi Palace Master, and there was no time to pursue.
Compared to this white-haired middle-aged man, what troubled him even more was the revival of the Ultimate Palace, which had dominated the True Spirit Continent more than 8,000 years ago, and yet this had all arisen without any prior indication, which was the most horrifying for the Holy Palace Master.
It wouldn’t be long before the Ultimate Palace, with their signature style of action, would create a terrifying storm on the True Spirit Continent.
Moreover, the fact that his Holy Palace’s most devilish disciple had become the current Young Master of the Ultimate Palace was utterly humiliating.
"Who would have thought that Jun Shitian would become the current Young Master of the Ultimate Palace? What exactly is going on here? Could the rumors be true that Jun Shitian’s demon technique originates from the Ultimate Palace?" Xiao Ye slightly furrowed his brow, secretly speculating.
What was initially a personal grudge between him and Jun Shitian had now evolved into a clash between two powerful forces, naturally complicating matters considerably.
"However, once my cultivation catches up, no matter who stands behind Jun Shitian, I will forcefully kill him!" Xiao Ye clenched his fists tightly, his killing intent surging.
Suddenly, at that moment, this world trembled, and the already damaged Taiyi Palace was enveloped by a majestic Emperor Realm aura.
Xiao Ye’s breath hitched, his body felt heavy, prompting him to look up, only to see the Taiyi Palace Master, robes fluttering in the Heaven, a Golden Light Road appearing under his feet, heading towards the remaining four combatants from the Ultimate Palace who were fiercely battling the Emperor Realm Elders of the Taiyi Palace.
"Hmph, everyone remain, speak everything about your Ultimate Palace!" The eyes of the Taiyi Palace Master, like those of a divine being, interwove dazzling and sharp lights, directly tearing through the void.
Those four Emperor Martial Realm powerhouses of the Ultimate Palace, although all titled Emperor Martial, were obviously not as capable as the escaping white-haired middle-aged man and were soon on the brink of defeat under the attack of numerous elders from Taiyi Palace.
Yet, making them even more desperate was the moment the Taiyi Palace Master’s words fell—
"Palace Master, I have come to assist you!"
"We from the Unrivaled Emperor Domain have also arrived!"
"The Ultimate Palace was our Iron Blood Emperor Domain’s ancestor 8,000 years ago, obliterated by the Iron Blood Emperor. Now that the Ultimate Palace has reemerged, naturally, our Iron Blood Emperor Domain won’t fall behind!"
From the groups of the Four Great Emperor Domains, four Emperor Realm powerhouses flew out, standing in four different directions, clearly not intending to let them escape. Although the Emperor Realm powerhouse who flew out from the Absolute Emperor Domain squad didn’t speak, his stance said it all.
Xiao Ye, seeing this, wasn’t the least bit surprised.
The name Ultimate Palace had too great an impact on those present, the Four Great Emperor Domains included, they surely intend, like the Holy Palace Master, to extract the latest information about the Ultimate Palace from these four titled Emperor Martial powerhouses.
"Haha, trying to extract information from us? You self-righteous people, dream on!"
"Long live the Ultimate Palace, forever immortal!"
"One day, our Ultimate Palace will once again reign over this land, that day is surely not far away!"
"You people, one day you will all be suppressed by our Ultimate Palace. Enjoy the little time you have left!"
...
These four Titled Emperor Martial practitioners from the Ultimate Palace, each laughed heartily with a look of madness in their eyes, releasing an aura capable of destroying heaven and earth, like the ominous suns at the brink of destruction.
All the Martial Artists present changed their expressions drastically.
These four madmen, they were actually planning to self-destruct!
"Not good!" The master of the Taiyi Palace reacted first. He reached out with both hands, attempting to seal the heavens to stop their self-destructive actions.
It must be noted, this is the Taiyi Palace! The self-destruction of one Titled Emperor Martial practitioner is terrifying enough, let alone having four in the area. If they were to self-destruct, the Taiyi Palace would suffer the greatest loss.
Unfortunately, his reaction was still a bit slow.
Before his attack could block them, the bodies of these four Ultimate Palace practitioners had already burst forth with overwhelming fluctuations, sweeping through the Taiyi Palace in a manner that engulfed everything in a fierce light, tearing apart the void.
Wherever it reached, everything was annihilated.
"Damn it!"
Xiao Ye’s eyes were filled with despair. Amidst the tumult of the self-destruction, he felt like a frail boat in a tempest, always on the verge of destruction, his body cracking open with fissures.
"My lords, I, as the master of this palace, implore you to help resist the waves of the self-destruction!" The master of the Taiyi Palace bellowed, his aged body emitting endless fluctuations, accelerating to the peak in this moment and he madly rushed towards Xiao Ye, managing to protect both him and the other twenty Devilish Disciples of the Main Hall.
Fortunately, the master of the Taiyi Palace acted just in time, thus saving Xiao Ye from extreme danger; otherwise, he would surely have died. And at this moment, it is evident that the Taiyi Palace Master values Xiao Ye as much as he does the Devilish Disciples of the Main Hall.
However, the other disciples of the Taiyi Palace weren’t so lucky.
When the destructive waves swept across, they instantaneously killed a large number of Sub-Hall Disciples; only a few who were protected by powerful forces from other factions survived, albeit severely injured.
Boom boom boom!
Above the Heavenly Dome, a terrifying energy storm roared, causing heaven and earth to tremble, lasting for a long time before it finally dissipated.
Xiao Ye, protected by the Taiyi Palace Master, took out a King Crystal from his Space Ring, healed his injuries, and then looked up, his body trembling.
It was too tragic!
What he saw was no longer the imposing and grand Taiyi Palace of yesteryear, but a site of ruins. Rubble buried its past glory, thick smoke billowed everywhere, and in many places, fissures reached all the way to the core of the earth, with fierce magma spewing forth and flowing everywhere.
As for the Taiyi Palace, most of its hundreds of thousands of disciples had died, the Four Main Halls had all suffered enormous losses. Only the Devilish Disciples of the Main Hall and himself had not been injured, due to the protection from the Palace Master.
"Brother Donghuang, Brother Nangong!" Xiao Ye thought of these two, his heart immediately poised in anxiety. He looked around and, finding that these two had also been protected by people from the Emperor Domain, let out a sigh of relief.
