Chapter 787: Counter-attack
Translator: Sigma Editor: SSins
After breaking through to the King God Realm, this was the first time Shi Yan had used all of his powers.
In his previous dozens of battles, he had encountered some Second Sky of King God Realm warriors. However, such characters couldn't stimulate all of his powers. Shi Yan didn't use much energy to kill them.
Only this old man with his Third Sky of King God Realm and the eccentric power Upanishad had made him use the Rampage Realm, which had taken all of his energy.
Standing on the freezing ground, Shi Yan squinted. His blood-red eyes were sharp and cold like sabers that gazed at that old fellow.
The hissing of the three Bone Thorns was like a crying ghost which irritated people.
The Bone Thorns with space power could be invisible and didn't even have shadows. It was hard to locate or lock them down using Soul Consciousness.
Although he was at the Third Sky of King God Realm, in the horrifying buzzing, he had no other way around but spending a part of his energy to stay cautious, preventing the three Bone Thorns.
"Inner Fantasy Thousand Folds!"
The old man lowered his voice and shouted. His shriveled body leaped up all of a sudden.
Then, the senile man turned into a ten-meter-tall giant. His skinny body swelled as if it contained endless power.
He faced the sky, and roared while swinging his arm. With the sound of bone exploding, a palm pressed down from the sky, snatching Shi Yan, covering all of the area where he was standing.
Refined energy compacted in his palm like so many electric god dragons, creating the whole new world in that instant.
Shi Yan looked at the sky.
He saw many shadows in that giant palm. They were Shi Jian, Shi Tie, Yang Tian Emperor, Yi Tian Mo, Xia Xin Yan, He Qing Man, and Bing Qing Tong's sisters.
In that palm were all the people Shi Yan cared about. At this moment, they became his archenemies. They were storming towards him with cold and sinister faces.
Each of his loved ones became the killer who wanted to take his life. Energy revolved everywhere, swarming toward Shi Yan.
His soul altar was affected. His God Soul was enchanted. Sorrow, disappointment, and deep bitterness arose in his heart.
While he was puzzled, those people became the real Death which wanted to kill him.
Heart Delusion Technique!
This was the bizarre and evil feature of the old man's power Upanishad. It could affect people's hearts, delude their minds, and make them believe that all that they saw were true.
Seeing his family members and friends want to take his life, Shi Yan, this cold and harsh person, felt lost. His heart made him restrain his enormous energy as he was afraid that he could hurt his loved ones.
"You've forgotten us and you just want to live your good life, don't you?"
"Why haven't you returned yet? Don't you know that we are struggling in the dead puddle of the Grace Mainland because of energy shortage?"
"Now that you have a good life, do you remember us? You forgot us, didn't you?"
His family members and friends threw question after question at him which messed his mind up more. Shi Yan was baffled and didn't know how to answer them.
His mind was chaotic. His will was reduced. He couldn't release all of his powers.
At this moment, Shi Yan fell under such struggling circumstances.
The giant body that the old man had created beamed a sinister smile while his other hand also pressed down. He performed the other magical illusions a second time, which was to deceive people's hearts.
Those silhouettes stormed over, bombarding their attacks on him. Each figure had turned into a sharp attack with pure energy. All fell on Shi Yan.
Boom Boom Boom!
Shi Yan's upright body was hit hard, settling down to dozens of meters underground. A massive hole appeared right when where he had just stood.
Illusions disappeared.
Shi Yan was kneeling inside a hundred-meter-large hole. Blood covered his entire body. His bones cracked and so did his eyes.
He woke up immediately.
Intensive pains spread across his body while his energy was chaotic. Forces in his body shot like lightning. All had lost its balance. The struggling Shi Yan thought that if he died, he would feel better. The circulation of his energy and power was stagnant.
The giant body of the old man stood vigorously. He stooped and watched Shi Yan in his hundred-meter-deep hole. He was surprised. "Kid, your God Body isn't broken yet!"
With his Third Sky of King God Realm cultivation base, the First Sky of King God Realm warrior's body couldn't bear much of his attacks. It would explode and only the soul altar could escape.
He thought that Shi Yan must be dead under his savage attack.
Unfortunately, he had underestimated the toughness of Shi Yan's God Body. His attack had just hurt Shi Yan badly, and it couldn't explode his body.
"Hey old freak, I won't let you live so comfortably." Shi Yan had blood all over his face. Blood also trickled from the corners of his eyes. He looked brutally angry. "I hate family members and friends illusions the most. Since you're so shameless and sinister, don't blame me for giving you the same treatment."
Then, Shi Yan shot out of the hole like a sharp sword.
His God Domain was filled with negative feelings like death, desperation, resentment, bloodthirstiness and more. They condensed into a torrential sea of negative energy. Just like the beast getting out of its rein, it flooded over the old man like a Milky Way, covering his entire area.
Not only did the old man know how to delude people with illusions. In his God Domain, Shi Yan knew how to use the same mysterious trick.
Filled with resentment, Shi Yan's God Soul manipulated the three Bone Thorns and got them out of the space slits.
As soon as they appeared, the three Bone Thorns aimed at the old man's eyes and nape, stabbing directly like three silver lightning strikes.
The old man discolored. He didn't expect that the Bone Thorns could have space power and be so cunning. He urged his energy, creating moving halo covering his body.
Those moving halos looked like small fish swimming around him. When the three Bone Thorns arrived, the halo entangled them all. Shi Yan's Bone Thorns looked like they were tied by something invisible, sinking into a swamp.
The Bone Thorns Shi Yan had refined himself were made of a bone of a level eleven beast with more than ten auxiliary materials, which greatly enhanced their hardness and sharpness. This weapon of his had reached rank 1 Divine Grade.
Although it was the defense of a Third Sky of King God Realm warrior, hurriedly countering the three Bone Thorns had used all of his power.
While the old man used his energy to create the moving halos that prevented the three Bone Thorns, he didn't have extra energy to create more illusions. Shortly after, all illusions that were affecting Shi Yan, Tie Mu, and Yalan vanished.
Shi Yan used his negative feelings to create the negative sea engulf the old man.
He didn't hesitate and clapped his hands in front of his chest. Lights congregated between his palms creating a big light sword. Shi Yan slashed his sword, fiercely stabbing through the negative sea and aiming at the old man's glabella.
At the same time, Yalan and Tie Mu released their God Domains after they had got rid of the illusions. Tornadoes swept around. Earth changed. Beams of furious energy fell on the sky like shooting light from outer space. They all aimed at the old man.
The Three Bone Thorns struggled to move due to the moving halos. As if they had consciousness, they retreated and disappeared into folds of space.
At this moment, the negative sea, which was filled with evil and wicked negative emotions, had engulfed the old man. Although he was good at deluding people, the old man was affected. He seemed to be dragged into Hell. What he saw were all the bloody ghosts and demons that surrounded him.
His God Soul was affected so that he wouldn't be able to create the illusions in just a short period. Right at this moment, the light sword slashed down. This sword made the old man stop making illusions and to focus on gathering energy to create the moving halos around his body for defense.
The light sword slashed down grumblingly. Light shot out everywhere. The beams of light that had created the divine sword flew out, shifting into tens of thousands of stars that darted towards him.
Twirling gusts wrecked havoc everywhere, covering the old man. Under his feet, a heavy restraining force pressed the old man down on the ground, keeping him from flying away.
Yalan and Tie Mu were both the Second Sky of King God Realm warriors. As they were the troopers under Carthew's command, they had enough fighting experience. They were good at continuous attacking. After they got rid of the illusions, they immediately released their powers. The intimidating scene they created was not less than Shi Yan's.
Swoosh!
A wisp of divine light appeared. Shi Yan walked to that old man. His soul flickered and the God Domain changed again.
Both of his hands joined together, and a magical effect was created. He held the Space Domain tightly in his palms, making an incomparable space mystery. Massive light balls bombarded the old man instantly.
"Space Imprisonment!" Shi Yan shouted.
Crack Crack Crack!
Cracking sounds echoed from the space where the old man stood. It seemed that everything there was imprisoned. However, Wind and Earth power Upanishads of Yalan and Tie Mu were exceptions. They were still flowing furiously.
The old man's body stopped moving. Countless moving lights around him were frozen eccentrically.
Yalan and Tie Mu's powers hit him immediately. Explosions continued. Light sparks shot out from the old man's God Body.
Shortly after, that old man looked like Shi Yan with blood covering him entirely as if hundreds of sabers and swords had slashed him. He was in utter confusion with disheveled hair, giving him a funny and pitiful look.
Swoosh Swoosh Swoosh!
The hissing sound of the Bone Thorns arose again. The three Bone Thorns appeared, stabbing his chest and back.
Pfff!
The Bone Thorns pierced the old man's God Body. Bones cracked. The old man spat out blood. However, his face glowed strangely. He then disappeared like a ghost, leaving no trace.
All of his aura, energy fluctuations, and life magnetic field were gone. No one could detect him.
Yalan and Tie Mu walked over after the old man disappeared. They frowned while searching, touching their Purgatory Token to see if they could sense something.
