The Invincible Dragon Emperor - Page 747/790

Hao Changjun paid no heed to Lu Li’s words. He made another move.

Lu Li sent Haochuan out from the bead. The latter appeared right below the axe that was bearing down.

Hao Changjun paused for one moment. Fearing that Haochuan might be rescued by Hao Changjun, Lu Li triggered the soul seeds and caused them to explode directly. Under the nose of Hao Changjun, Hao Chuan collapsed to the ground. Blood oozed from his eyes, mouth and nose. He stared at Hao Changjun with fixed eyes. In the depth of his looks, there was hatred.

“Phew, phew~”

Hao Changjun closed his eyes and sighed. Then, he resumed his action, one move after another, continuously. Lu Li was thinking. After a while, he turned to another young master and a young lady of the Hao Family.

They were frightened greatly. The young master dropped to his knees instantly, kowtowed to Lu Li and said, “Don’t kill me. I don’t want to go. Show mercy, I beg of you.”

“It is not me that you should beg!”

Lu Li said with no emotion, “I am not the cruel one. Your progenitor is the heartless person. He is the one trying to kill you. Go out and beg him. If he doesn’t care about your lives, then death it is.”

The hall glowed as the young master and the young lady were sent out. They knelt down at once and hollowed, “Progenitor, save us. We don’t want to die.”

Hao Changjun stopped his action. He shook his head and said, “You have made contributions to the Family. Hao Family will remember you.”

“Whoosh…”

Hao Family Progenitor waved his axe, leaving a blood mark on both their necks. Hao Changjun killed his own offspring with his own hands. Lu Li was taken aback at the atrocity of this man.

Two Earth Immortal Realm warriors were kept in the Wicked Bead. Lu Li didn’t want to sacrifice them. If Hao Changjun could kill his own offspring, then there was no stopping him anymore.

“Bang, bang, bang!”

Hao Changjun launched continuous attacks. But every time, the bead merely gave out a faint glow. It didn’t move nor tremble.

Lu Li was relieved. He focused on the bead to see if it required energy to sustain. If so, the bead would be cracked open sooner or later.

“Well…”

Lu Li found something upon closer check. There seemed to be a circulation of energy in the bead. Every time as Hao Changjun hacked at the bead, the energy would be drained a little, a tiny bit. But the energy was reducing.

Lu Li checked carefully for the time for three incense sticks to burn. He was sure that the energy was running away. However… compared to the total amount of energy in the bead, the decreasing amount was alike a drop in a lake. Based on the current situation, the bead would not be cracked unless it was under constant attack for years.

“Ha, ha!”

Lu Li tried to have more in-depth check. His confidence was boosted. Several years’ of attack? Who would be that stupid? What if the bead could not be cracked, not even after decades? Would Hao Changjun really waste all this time here? The others would certainly not be okay with Hao Changjun taking exclusive possession of the bead himself.

Lu Li ignored Hao Changjun. The former resumed cultivation and didn’t care about Hao Changjun’s actions.

Hao Changjun never stopped. He kept going. Every few seconds, he would hack down once. He didn’t use some powerful Profound Meaning, which would consume too much energy. His vitality had already been sapped after his arm was broken. He could not take too risk actions.

Two hours, six hours, 16 hours!

Hao Changjun went on and on without resting for one moment. He kept staring at the bead and its glow. He was shocked and overjoyed at the same time!

He had been doing this for 16 hours, but the glow didn’t dim down. This bead must be a Relic without question. At the same time, he was frustrated. The bead’s glow didn’t die down. Could he really not be able to crack it open by himself?

“I need to try out Profound Meanings now!”

Hao Changjun was growing impatient. If other warriors found out what he was doing, not only would he lose this Relic, but he would also run into other serious problems.

He put away his huge axe and started to mobilize Profound Meaning by generating seals with his hands. Xuan Qi from all sides in heaven and earth gathered around. Darkness fell. In the sky, dark clouds came into being. They converged together until a Sword of Ruin was formed.

“Sword of Ruin!”

The Hao Family Earth Immortal Realm warrior hiding in the distance was shocked. This Profound Meaning was the most powerful this progenitor warrior knew. It was an eighth rank Profound Meaning that could bring about destruction and Profound Meanings of this sort were the most horrifying.

“Run—”

The Hao Family Earth Immortal Realm warrior was three miles away. Even so, he had decided to retreat for another mile. The Profound Meaning was so strong that he could be injured by merely the ripple impact.

“Swish, swish~”

From the sky, a sword with a length of one thousand feet whooshed down. The sharp noise it carried resounded in an area with a radius of 300 miles. Storms of qi and energy spread out. Space was shaking and the ripple extended to more than one hundred miles away. It was as if the sky was torn apart.

“Whoosh~”

The huge sword bore down, stirring up an air stream. Gale sprang up and thunders roared. It was like the word was coming to an end. The sword pierced through the sky, followed by the air stream. Mountains around the area collapsed and ground cracked. Rocks were flying around and dust was stirred up. It was the most horrifying scene.

“Bang!”

The sword tip landed on the Wicked Bead which suddenly gave out a bright light. That being said, it still didn’t tremble. The ground below the bead, however, cracked open and was turned into dust. There was a large pit as more than one mile of the group caved in for one hundred feet…

“That was intimidating!”

Lu Li was startled. He took a check of the surroundings and was stunned by what he saw. The Semi-God Realm warrior was too powerful. He could even level an entire city in one move. If the sword were to fly away horizontally, it could have carved a fjord of hundreds of miles in the wild.

Lu Li remembered a legend of the Heaven Reverse Universe. It was said that the Clouds Plains and the Serenity Plains were connected but they were separated by Emperor Heaven Reverse using his sword.

Lu Li now was convinced that it was more than a legend after witnessing Hao Family progenitor warrior’s Profound Meaning. Emperor Heaven Reverse was more powerful than the Hao Family progenitor warrior. The former might really have parted the Clouds Plains and the Serenity Plains.

“Such a consumption of energy!”

Lu Li sensed it. He realized that this one move was equivalent to Hao Changjun’s average attack for an hour. Even so, compared to the energy in the Wicked Bead, this loss of energy was nothing.

“Again!”

Seeing how the bead suddenly glared, Hao Changjun thought that the bead could not hold on for long. He was thrilled. By using Profound Meaning, he had hurt his vitality again. Given that he was already injured, using Profound Meaning continuously would bring greater harm. But… it would all be worth it if he could finally have the bead.

“Boom, boom, boom~”

Hao Changjun used Sword of Ruin four times. There was no more mountains around. It had turned into a valley. As for the group under the bead, there appeared a large, bottomless pit…

When Hao Changjun was about to embark on the fifth attack, he saw two people coming from the distance. One sneering sound came as well, “I told you that this Hao Family jerk has no good intention. I am right. Hao Changjun, you old jerk, are you trying to put the bead into your own pocket?”

Hao Changjun turned around. He was enraged and frustrated to see two old warriors coming. Wu Guangde and Chen Tianxian, the two Family Patriarchs from the Mage Imperial Universe had come in a group. Hao Changjun believed that he had lost his chance of controlling this bead. His previous attack had been in vain.

This bead was a Relic. Of course, everyone had desires.

Wu Guangde and Chen Tianxian must have ditched their team and came in secret. Not many Mystical Materials or treasures could be gained by looting the Leng Dynasty. Not even the Mystical Materials or treasures of the entire Central Imperial Universe could compare to this one bead.
