Chapter 1496: Azure Ruling World and Spirit Frost World Pt.10

Zhu Nang, despite being crafty, talkative, and somewhat a piece of shit, was still a True Immortal and once the leader of a Star Pirate group. How could he be lacking in aggression?

The moment he moved, his already large body swelled up like a balloon.

Even though the frog king was larger, and already injured, it suffered even more once Zhu Nang slammed into it. A torrent of what could not be distinguished as either blood or mucus burst forth from its gaping mouth, covering the ground in an instant.

Of course, as a rank six spiritual beast king, the frog king was still able to stay alive and maintain a shred of fighting strength.

However, under such circumstances, why would it stay and fight against Zhu Nang, a True Immortal who just arrived to back them up?

The filth that covered the ground instantly turned the area into a toxic fog zone. The frog king shrank countless times and leaped through it, using it as cover.

But before it could gather strength for another leap, the ground beneath it suddenly gave way.

Kicking wildly in mid air, the frog king managed to avoid falling into the pit below. Before it could land, a thunderous rumbling came from behind. Zhu Nang, having protected his head and face, already charged out of the toxic fog zone and struck the airborne frog king from behind.

Thump!

This time, the shrunken frog king was sent flying even farther by Zhu Nang's blow, almost matching the strength of its desperate leap.

With that blow, the frog king lost its last chance to escape.

It might have landed several dozens of miles away, its life force started to escape from its already small body.

Blood oozed from Zhu Nang's nose and mouth as his heavy footsteps thundered in the ears of the frog king before he finally stopped before it.

The next second, a vortex of heaven and earth qi rushed into the skies and tore through the heavenly screen as the rank six spiritual beast king was slain. Every True Immortal-level beast in the Azure Ruling World was startled by the sudden change.

"Hehe, I didn't expect to be able to kill a True Immortal today!"

After wiping the blood from his nose and mouth, Zhu Nang took several deep breaths and then proceeded according to the earlier plan to help protect the Spirit Ark.

Just as the heavenly phenomenon of the frog king’s fall appeared, the Ying Brothers, who were fighting fiercely high above, suddenly withdrew. However, they didn’t retreat either.

The vine-like beast did the same as it retracted its wildly swinging vines. The strange expert also stopped moving as 2 orbs of light slowly rotated around its body.

It was then that this strange warrior revealed his true face. It was a white-haired youth with a strikingly large nose.

His eyes had already lost their pupils, replaced by a layer of eerily white membranes.

"Are you the one who's been controlling him?!" Ying Lianxi suddenly spoke, not to the old man, but to the twisting vines that appeared along with the old man in the sky. He sounded certain of his conjecture.

The white-haired old man's head jerked upward, his pale eyeballs seemingly looking at the Ying Brothers as if he could actually see.

"Have you come searching for 'him'?" The old man spoke, his voice dry as a desert.

"You're desecrating his corpse!" Ying Lianquan coldly stated.

"Desecration?" That dry voice came from the old man again. "That's a term you humans use. To me, it's an opportunity!"

Ying Lianquan mocked, "Being manipulated like a puppet, temporarily possessing the strength of a fourth tier True Immortal... Is that what you consider an opportunity?"

At the end of the day, both sides viewed the matter differently.

"Puppet? So that's what this is called? Quite a good term!" The old man's face remained rigid, yet his voice, amidst its dryness, revealed hints of joy and realization. It gave an unsettling feeling to those who heard it.

"However, you're not entirely correct," the vine beast king spoke through the old man, "This puppet’s combat strength isn’t just something I can use for now. It will soon become my sustenance for further advancement!"

"You plan to use him to break through to the level of Dao Union?!” Ying Lianxi immediately realized what he wanted to do.

Ying Lianquan, however, expressed some doubt. "Wait, how can you break through to a higher level in an Azure World?"

"Hehe," A dry, eerie laugh came from the old man, his face void of any smile.

Just then, a sudden thought struck Ying Lianxi. An absurd idea flashed through his mind. "Did you bring those spiritual beast kings of the Spirit Frost World over here?!”

Details about the Spirit Frost World had already been communicated to the two brothers by secret transmission, and the clones left in the floating continent had also received the news.

Just then, the wildly swinging giant vine suddenly froze, then immediately resumed as normal.

"Was it really you who brought them here?!" Ying Lianquan looked at the vine beast king with some astonishment, clicking his tongue. "You're a member of the Azure Ruling World. What good will it do for your world to be swallowed by the Spirit Frost World? Moreover, the Spirit Frost World surely has no shortage of stronger beings with powerful skills. Even if you use him as a puppet, what can you do with your world behind devoured?”

"Hehe, you humans understand nothing!" The vine beast king, through the mouth of the white-haired old man, sneered coldly at the Ying Brothers.

The next second, the Ying Brothers’ gaze met. "Go!"

They attacked in unison.

What they were targeting wasn’t the vine beast king. Neither was it the corpse of the old man. Instead, it was the light orbs surrounding the old man’s corpse.

The vine beast king, naturally wary of the brothers, saw them take action and immediately tried to counterattack. It tried to use the corpse of the white-haired old man as a shield, while the two orbs of light that had always protected him shot towards the Ying Brothers.

It didn’t expect them to target the orbs of light!

It basically sent their goal straight to their doorsteps!

Reaching out at the same time, the bracelets on their wrists flew out as if they were attracted to the orbs like magnets. The golden bracelet flew to the golden orb and the silver bracelet flew to the silver orb.

The next instant, the vine beast king discovered it had lost control over the orbs of light! Without them, the corpse of the old man could no longer display its might as a fourth tier True Immortal!

The vine beast king panicked instantly, roaring through the mouth of the corpse of the old man. "What have you done?!"

The Ying Brothers looked at each other at that moment, smiles emerging on their faces. "We’re just returning what originally belonged to the Azure Ruling World!"

"What is this?!" The vine beast king, though unsure of what had happened, understood that something had occurred involving the two orbs of light.

Ying Lianquan suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, yet his face showed an unprecedented smile of relief. "You've been manipulating the ancestor’s corpse like a puppet. Did you never realize what those two orbs that have always orbited around his body actually were?"

The corpse of the white-haired old man remained silent, but the vine tendrils behind it stretched and curled even more intensely. Clearly, the vine beast king was growing angrier by the second after it was mocked.

The next moment, Ying Lianxi and Ying Lianquan straightened their backs and bowed in the direction of the corpse. "Disciples Ying Lianxi and Ying Lianquan respectfully ask the teacher to rest in peace!"

As they spoke, the two blazing orbs that had always orbited the old man's corpse suddenly broke free and flew towards the Ying Brothers.

The vine beast king, almost on instinct, had the old man's corpse charge at the Ying Brothers. The giant vine tendrils reached for the two orbs, attempting to seize them for themselves.

Since the vine beast king possessed intelligence, how could it not covet the two colored orbs that had always orbited the old man's corpse?

It was the first time it managed to touch them.

At this moment, though the orbs had been stripped from the corpse by others, it was also the best opportunity for the vine beast king to seize those extraordinary treasures.

However, the vine beast king's tendrils had not yet reached the orbs when they quickly retracted.

Following that, a heart-stopping peal of thunderous lightning, carrying the Azure Ruling World’s Will, fell like rain.

The location where the Ying Brothers clashed with the vine beast king was high in the skies, right beneath the heavenly screen. How could there be lightning there?

What happened was a manifestation of the World’s Will and a destructive blow from the world against an existence that had surpassed the ability of the world to bear. Even if it was just a corpse, it had already become a high-level True Immortal.

But when the destructive lightning struck, the scene one might imagine of enduring the thunderous impact unscathed did not occur.

The corpse, which had always had the protection of the two colored orbs, burst like an overfilled balloon. Heaven and earth qi filled the world.

The heavenly phenomenon was even greater when the spiritual beast king died. It didn’t just tear through the heavenly screen, but the heaven and earth qi of the world grew slightly denser.

Any creature in the Martial Extermination Realm, be it human or beast, could clearly sense the World's Will rejoicing. The world even grew significantly with his death.

Well, it didn’t really affect the creatures of the Azure Ruling World directly.

The Ying Brothers might have obtained the light orbs, and the lightning that destroyed the old man’s corpse came from the wrath of the World’s Will, but the vine beast king didn’t care about the intricacies! It could feel the World’s Will rejoicing but fear filled its heart.

Having lost control of the old man's corpse, the vine beast king also lost its greatest backing. It was no match for the Ying Brothers!

It could sense that with the growth of the Azure Ruling World, the suppression against the Ying Brothers also started to weaken. That would mean that they would be able to reveal greater strength!

Moreover, there were those strange blazing orbs, which after merging with the gold and silver bracelets, were beginning to orbit around the brothers.

The vine beast king made a decisive move to withdraw from the battlefield and flee.

The Ying Brothers looked at each other and smiled, but instead of choosing to pursue and beat the fleeing enemy, they turned and flew towards the Spirit Ark.

The sudden changes to the Azure Ruling World caused great disturbance to the many battlefields.

The bird beast king, who had barely suppressed Song Zhen, turned to flee.

The battered Spirit Ark, with Zhu Nang's support, was finally able to hang on a bit longer. However, the members of the Twin Star Pirates who had been holding them back suffered greatly from the corrosion of their fate dippers became of Shang Xia’s inner qi. If they continued to fight, they would probably suffer the same fate as the expert who sacrificed himself to injure the frog beast king.

Fortunately, it didn’t take long before the beasts withdrew. Everyone on board heaved a sigh of relief.

Soon, the Ying Brothers and Song Zhen arrived. They also heaved a sigh of relief after seeing that the secret region inside had not been breached.

"Let's begin. Release the world fragments of the Barbaric Worlds and Azure Worlds. It’s time to let this world accept us!”
