Chapter 1020: Rakshasa Battles The Kun Armor

“The Kun Armor!”

Duan Pofeng’s eyes widened, and his complexion grew paler when he finally recognized his attacker.

The Eight Divine Armors were extremely famous. It was why he had personally paid them a visit after conquering the Nanjiang Royal Court. Naturally, he was able to recognize it at first glance.

The Kun Armor he saw in the secret room was cold, lifeless, and weak though. This one was beyond powerful and terrifying.

“The remnants of the Meng Clan!”

Duan Pofeng did not hesitate. He immediately backed away from the Kun Armor and detonated the giant axe his arm had transformed into. A million shrapnels immediately shot toward the Kun Armor like arrows.

The Kun Armor was an inanimate object, but it was also a bonafide Sage. If the Kun Armor was here, then the Eight Divine Armors could be here as well. He could deal with one Divine Armor, but two? Three? He could only be dead.

That was why he did not hesitate to beat a hasty retreat. He couldn’t allow himself to be pincered by two or more Divine Armors.

To Duan Pofeng’s credit, he reacted swiftly and decisively. The problem was that the Kun Armor was no slower than him.

The Kun Armor paid no attention to the shower of bone shrapnels whatsoever. The deadly projectiles bounced off its body as harmlessly as cotton.

The Kun Armor took a step forward and executed Earth Contraction, crossing tens of meters of distance in just the blink of an eye. It appeared right in front of Duan Pofeng and threw a punch.

As soon as the punch emerged, the ground split open, and the stone and soil rose into the air to combine into a dark yellow dragon.

A dragon had descended upon the battlefield, and its blood was dark yellow in color.

Duan Pofeng was given no chance to dodge. The dark yellow dragon struck him squarely on the chest and sent him flying toward the distance like a cannonball.

As Duan Pofeng was propelled away, the Kun Armor grasped its fists and hammered the ground. Countless earthen spikes immediately shot out of the ground within a radius of dozens of meters.

Caught off guard, the several hundred Barbarian Slayer soldiers who were fighting among themselves were skewered without resistance.

Not only that, the earthen spikes were rippling outward like a wave, killing and injuring many more soldiers in the process.

“Bastard!”

Duan Pofeng was enraged. The earthen spikes could not hurt him one bit. Even his soldiers would have been fine if they were able to form an army formation.

Unfortunately, the large majority of his soldiers had lost their minds and were busy killing each other right now. Naturally, they couldn’t defend themselves.

At this point, it became absolutely clear that the bloodline backlash and loss of sanity Barbarian Slayer was facing was triggered by the Meng Clan remnants.

There was no time to think. After arresting himself and roaring, Duan Pofeng turned around and charged toward the Kun Armor.

The Kun Armor boasted the strength of a Sage, and Barbarian Slayer was unable to form an effective army formation right now. For them to go up against the Kun Armor was like pitting an egg against a stone. If he did not stop this, Barbarian Slayer would suffer massive casualties for sure.

As he ran toward the Kun Armor, Duan Pofeng grew larger and taller. He burst out of his flesh and blood like they were just clothes and grew into a thirty-meter tall bone giant.

The next moment, the bone giant became wreathed in cold, white flames. The flames felt eerie and evil as well.

The flames spread to the surroundings and melted the flesh and blood of the corpses on the earthen spikes, leaving behind only their skeletons. Then, the bones flowed toward the bone giant like tidewater, forming a bony armor around its body and a massive bone axe in its hand.

Duan Pofeng had nearly cultivated his Bone Rakshasa bloodline to the max and become like the true Bone Rakshasa. He had given up on his flesh and blood and focused on his bones only. He could control every bone in the world for his own use.

Seeing Duan Pofeng’s charge, the Kun Armor plunged its hands into the ground and heaved.

The entire chunk of ground was flipped into the air like it was a piece of fabric.

Duan Pofeng brought his giant axe with one mighty swing, and the tidal wave of earth was split in half.

Then, the axe made contact with the Kun Armor’s fist.

There was a huge impact. The axe strike slammed the Kun Armor into the underground, but Duan Pofeng himself was pushed back from the Kun Armor. As he staggered, his axe crumbled into fine powder, and parts of his bone armor were blasted to smithereens.

Still, more bones were being absorbed into his body and repairing the damaged bone armor.

This was one of the Blood Rakshasa bloodline’s greatest strengths.

Rumble!

It was at this moment the ground behind Duan Pofeng exploded. Then, the Kun Armor leaped out and threw a punch at Duan Pofeng’s back.

The punch resonated with the ground, and mountain and water seemed to join in with the punch.

Duan Pofeng’s head turned a hundred and eighty degrees backward as a third arm grew out of his back. Each arm wielded a giant axe and executed Demon Slaying, Buddha Ending, and Celestial Killing respectively.

Together, the Three Axes of Confusion seemed capable of killing any demon, buddha or celestial and stirring the world into chaos.

Rumble...

This time, the Kun Armor was pushed back three hundred meters. Duan Pofeng’s bones exploded to smithereens once more.

The next moment, the Kun Armor ran toward Duan Pofeng with footsteps as heavy as mountains. Literally, the ground was shaking like a high magnitude earthquake, and anyone unfortunate enough to be standing in its path exploded into a shower of blood and gore upon contact.

The scattered bones converged into separate locations and formed thirty six bone humanoids.

The bone humanoids looked no different from the bone giant Duan Pofeng had transformed into earlier. They were just several times smaller. That by no means meant that they could be underestimated, however. Every single bone humanoid gave off an evil aura and felt as strong as a Trueman.

The next moment, the thirty six bone humanoids charged toward the Kun Armor and fought against it.

Although the Kun Armor boasted the power of a Sage, and Duan Pofeng was no match against it, his Bone Rakshasa bloodline gave him extraordinary vitality and various anomalous abilities. It allowed him to put on a good fight against the Kun Armor for a time.

Duan Pofeng knew that it was only temporary though. It was only a matter of time before the Kun Armor killed him.

At first, he thought that he could handle the Kun Armor. It might be as strong as a Sage, but it was also an inanimate object. He thought for sure that human intelligence would be enough to bridge the gap to an extent.

It wasn’t until he fought the Kun Armor for real that he realized his folly. The Kun Armor might be an inanimate object, but it could control the earth, possessed immense strength, and was as tough and resilient as the ground. It was an opponent someone his level could combat at all.

The only thing he could do right now was to buytime until Kui Pingshan returned. Kui Pingshan was a Half-Sage, and the Barbarian Slayer Army’s Disaster-class Strange Artifact was with him. Unlike him, Kui Pingshan definitely possessed the strength to combat the Kun Armor and even defeat it.

There was only one problem: Could Kui Pingshan make it back in time?

......

Kui Pingshan probably couldn’t make it back in time. It was because he was lost.

Yes, he was lost.

It sounded unbelievable, but he, Kui Pingshan, was definitely lost.

Kui Pingshan was extremely angry and frustrated right now.

He was angry because he, a Half Sage and a Strangerkin of the Evil Suppressing White Tiger capable of seeing far, far away and listening to everything within this range, was unable to walk out of a small forest.

The forest was obviously small. The screams and noises sounded like the battle was happening right around the corner. But no matter what he tried, he just could not exit the forest or locate his troops. It was anomalous to say the least.

It was almost as if he and his army existed in two separate worlds.

“Who dares to trick this general? Show yourself!”

Kui Pingshan snarled as he swung his golden halberd wantonly.

Every time he executed a swing, the force would split heaven and earth and smash every tree within a radius of tens of meters to smithereens. The surrounding mist was dispelled as well.

“Show yourself! Fight me fair and square!”

Eyes bloodshot, Kui Pingshan roared at the top of his lungs as he destroyed anything and everything. Despite this, his efforts proved to be futile.

Wan Pojiang and his personal guard were scattered throughout the area and attempting to find a way out of the rest or a flaw in the anomaly they were trapped inside. Despite this, they found nothing.
