Chapter 353: Darkness Descends

Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu

The geniuses who had barely managed to stabilize their footing were suddenly dealt a devastating blow, suffering immense casualties!

Tian Mozi laughed loudly with glee as he watched the juniors struggling so desperately. He was in an extremely good mood. In just another hour, he would not need to fear the ten great sects any longer. His long-awaited chance for revenge would also arrive soon!

"Boom!"

A gentle ripple arose beside Tian Mozi as a figure swathed in black robes suddenly appeared. The figure moved with a speed akin to lightning, sending a long sharp needle as wide as a hornet's sting towards him. In an instant, the needle broke past Tian Mozi's defense!

"Dammit!"

No matter how he guessed, Tian Mozi had not expected that someone would manage to sneak this close to him. But when he realized the danger, it was already too late for him to dodge. He could only direct a flying sword to block in front of him!

But unexpectedly, the incredibly sturdy flying sword was instantly pierced through by the opponent's needle, stabbing directly through his heart!

"PU!"

As the needle passed through Tian Mozi's chest, a thorny flower pattern instantly bloomed on his chest. The black robed figure grabbed the needle and pulled harshly, instantly tearing Tian Mozi's heart into shreds!

"Drip, drip!"

Large droplets of crimson blood rolled off the bowl-sized wound on Tian Mozi's, dripping loudly on the ground.

"Sky Yin Hand!"

Tian Mozi coughed out a mouthful of blood as an ash-white flame appeared on his hand. With a swift counterattack, he smacked a palm down onto the black robed figure who hadn't managed to back off in time.

"Pu!"

Lan Qianmo had not expected Tian Mozi's movements to be so quick. A layer of golden light appeared on his body as he faced the incoming palm. However, that layer of defense was instantly shattered by Tian Mozi!

Numerous grayish white patterns appeared on Lan Qianmo's body, covering his entire body. The sight was extremely frightening.

"You should be the second-ranked genius on the Heaven's Chosen Roll, Lan Qianmo, right? What an amazing concealment ability!"

Tian Mozi hurriedly swallowed a strange-smelling pill. As he did so, blood stopped flowing out of his chest. However, he still looked extremely wretched.

Tian Mozi had not expected that he would end up stumbling at the hands of a little brat.

"Go to hell!"

Tian Mozi ignored his injuries and forcibly attacked again. Although his heart had been ripped apart, he would not die. That was because part of his body had already been refined into a Demonic Corpse!

"Have you heard the melodious gushing sound of blood before?"

A sorrowful voice seemingly torn by love and longing appeared, causing Tian Mozi to pause in his footsteps. A figure with a sword in his hand could be seen walking over from afar.

Tian Mozi suddenly felt his temples throb as an intense sense of danger flooded over him!

The Three-Headed Ferocious Ape that was on a crazed killing spree also halted its attacks and ran back towards Tian Mozi with all its might!

"Who are you!?" Tian Mozi probed darkly. The fact that this person was in the secret realm with him meant that his cultivation was only at the third level. However, this person who was only at the third level of cultivation was actually able to make him feel such an intense level of danger!

"The dead have no need for answers."

Wu Sheng Yi raised his head, revealing a row of pearly white teeth. Following that, he dashed towards Tian Mozi with shocking speed!

Tian Mozi was incredibly enraged. He did not show any mercy as numerous wisps of baleful Yin Qi gathered in his hands, transforming into thick, heavy chains. With a flick of his arm, the chains shot toward Wu Sheng Yi!

"Dang!"

A light sound rang out, and all the chains formed with Yin Qi were broken apart!

Countless red thread-like Qi danced in the air, gleaming with an indomitable sharpness!

"Chop!"

"Sky Yin Shield!"

Tian Mo Zi did not expect his opponent to move at such a quick speed, appearing in front of him instantaneously. A small banner appeared before him, flashing with black light. A barrier blinking with black and white radiance instantly appeared around him, wrapping Tian Mozi within it.

"Pop!"

Tian Mozi's expression turned unsightly as a light popping sound rang out.

"How could this be!?"

This Sky Yin Shield could be said to be completely unbreakable among the third level. On top of that, he'd added his own treasures to fortify the barrier. However, it was actually broken apart so easily!

"Pu!"

At the most crucial moment, the Three-Headed Ferocious Ape finally appeared, blocking in front of Tian Mozi, forcefully intercepting the attack!

The sturdy Three-Headed Ferocious Ape was instantly cut into two pieces. The sharp attack continued unhindered, slashing down towards Tian Mozi!

"Explode!"

Ruthlessness flashed across Tian Mozi's eyes as he threw a bunch of magical treasures out, detonating them!

The combined explosive might of the magical treasures created a powerful shock wave which surged towards Wu Sheng Yi!

Without any hesitation, Tian Mozi turned around and leaped off the cliff!

A devilish crimson lotus flashed through the sky behind him, its might sufficient to rival a fourth level cultivator's self-detonation! However, this attack was soundlessly extinguished by Wu Sheng Yi with a slash of his sword!

Wu Sheng Yi did not even cast an eye at the geniuses still trapped within the formation. With a decisive move, he directly chased after Tian Mozi.

"I just need half an hour, I only need to endure for another half hour!"

Tian Mozi gritted his teeth as he ran. No matter what, he hadn't expected that he would bump into such a perversely powerful character like Wu Sheng Yi! From what he can see, even fourth level cultivators would not be a match for Wu Sheng Yi!

"Sky Demon Body Disintegration!"

Tian Mozi was blocked by Wu Sheng Yi once again. As he looked at this young genius before him, even Tian Mozi began to show a rare trace of fear!

In an instant, all the wounds and injuries on Tian Mozi's body closed up and began to heal. The aura around him began to rise, not losing out to Wu Sheng Yi's!

This was a supreme forbidden technique of the Heavenly Corpse Sect. It could only be maintained for half an hour; once the duration of the technique was over, that person would turn into a complete cripple!

Tian Mozi wanted to make a gamble. He was betting that he had not calculated the timing wrongly. If the timing was accurate like he predicted, he would be completely fine.

The two quickly clashed and descended into a fierce battle. Numerous small mountains were blasted apart, and sword Qi flew everywhere. Countless towering trees were toppled and uprooted from the ground!

Tian Mozi who was using a forbidden technique could only fight to a draw with Wu Sheng Yi. This fact caused the unease in his heart to grow heavier and heavier.

'It's fine. It's almost ready! Ten great sects, I will return for sure!'

Tian Mozi had been calculating the time carefully since the start. The pressure Wu Sheng Yi was exerting on him had become stronger as time passed. Numerous bloody wounds which would not close had appeared all over his body.

"The time's almost up. Are you waiting for that thing?"

Wu Sheng Yi suddenly stopped and looked at Tian Mozi with a smile that wasn't a smile.

"How did you know?!"

Tian Mozi exclaimed with disbelief. This was the Heavenly Corpse Sect's greatest secret. How did the other party know about it!?

Wu Sheng Yi did not even look at Tian Mozi. His gaze was directed at the sun in the sky as he muttered, "It's about time for everything to end. You are no longer useful to me as a whetstone."

A huge shadow had appeared in the sky and from the ground—it seemed like the sun was casting a shadow.

Wu Sheng Yi's 365 acupoints had lit up, as if there were 365 small suns in his body!

"Ten Thousand Stars Chop!"

The 365 acupoints on Wu Sheng Yi's body began to tremble as a terrifying stellar energy flowed onto his blade!

The sword vibrated lightly, forming a sweet-sounding sword keen!

Ripples appeared around the sword as it vibrated even more intensely. In an instant, Wu Sheng Yi directed the sword and chopped down at Tian Mozi!

"Tzzz!"

The space seemed to have been rended apart by that sword strike. A thin black ray flashed through the sky.

"Block for me!" Tian Mozi shouted with all his might as he looked up at the sun in the sky. Over half of it was still not covered by the shadow.

At this time, Tian Mozi had also descended into a state of madness. 36 of his acupoints also lit up before extinguishing rapidly one by one.

A powerful force ran rampantly through Tian Mozi's body. His entire body even grew taller by one fold!

"Pu!"

A light sound rang out, and Tian Mozi's aura plummeted rapidly.

At this time, the sun's radiance was finally swallowed completely.

Darkness has descended.
