Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Suiren?!”
“The human emperor?”
“How is this possible?”
In the distance, Tongtian, Yang Jian, and the others were stunned. They simply did not expect that the person who suddenly appeared and knocked Pride Great Soul Overlord flying away with a single punch would be Suiren.
Wasn’t Suiren already dead? They saw with their own eyes his flesh crumble into ashes!
But… The bearded man in front of them, who was only clad in animal skin around his waist, was indeed Suiren! Moreover, he was younger, stronger, and more energetic than that old Suiren! He had smashed the Soul Overlord’s head with one blow!
That was a Chaotic-Saint-level existence! Although he was unable to fight with his full strength due to the restrictions of f.u.xi’s array, he could still crush Tongtian, whose fighting prowess was considered the strongest among Saints of the Great Path! This was enough to show how terrifying he was!
“Senior, kill him… But leave his flesh for me so I can cook something!” Bu Fang said, looking at Pride Great Soul Overlord without expression.
Suiren’s eyes lit up. “No problem… I hadn’t thought of that if you didn’t say so. This fellow’s meat would definitely be the ultimate delicacy if grilled!”
He stuck out his tongue and licked his lips. He was also a glutton, and he was the one who invented barbecue. After being reminded by Bu Fang, his mouth began to water.
“Looks like I have to be gentle, or we can’t grill him if I turn his flesh to pulps,” Suiren said as he stroked his beard.
Perhaps because Nethery had used the power beyond her level, her aura had become somewhat weak and unstable. She was now wrapped in the curse power, and she looked a little miserable.
Bu Fang took out an oyster pancake with a flip of his hand and gave it to her. In her current situation, however, an oyster pancake was merely a palliative. If he was to heal her, he would need something potent, and the Soul Overlord’s flesh was the perfect ingredient.
Pride Great Soul Overlord’s crushed head wriggled and soon recovered completely. The dark, sinful energy was surging in his mouth.
With the light of merit and the Flower of Great Path over his head, Suiren rushed out with the tree branch in hand and came in front of the Soul Overlord in an instant, las.h.i.+ng out the branch and dragging him into a fierce battle.
Pride Great Soul Overlord did not take the human emperor seriously at first. However, after they had exchanged a few moves, Suiren did not suffer defeat. Instead, the more he fought, the stronger and more confident he became.
Suiren kept whipping the Soul Overlord with the tree branch, like how a father would whip his son. Soon, Pride Great Soul Overlord’s body was covered with wounds, and black blood kept spilling out from them.
His miserable look froze everyone. It took a while for them to come to their senses and suck in their breath.
“A Chaotic Saint?!” The corner of Tongtian’s mouth twitched, and he could not help but exclaim.
Yes, Suiren had made a breakthrough and become a Chaotic Saint after he was resurrected!
The next moment, Tongtian laughed heartily. A Chaotic Saint was enough to suppress all these Soul Demons. He knew that the Ancestral Planet was safe now.
Suiren had become strong and muscular, completely different from his previous aging appearance. Every attack he made was filled with mighty power.
Pride Great Soul Overlord could no longer be arrogant. His was filled with hatred. He had descended to this world by forcing through the array, so his strength was suppressed by nearly seventy percent. This caused him to be beaten by Suiren without the ability to fight back. His dark golden scales became very dull.
He was boiling with rage. He was the Great Soul Overlord of the Soul Demon Universe, who had led countless Soul Demons to conquer numerous worlds. He could not allow anyone to humiliate him like this!
He lashed out his dragon tail. The stroke was like a divine whip striking at the sky, so strong that even the void seemed to shatter before it.
Suiren’s eyes widened as he raised his hands and grabbed the tail. “What a… fat tail it is!” He pulled the tail and grinned.
Pride Great Soul Overlord was taken aback and had a bad feeling. He tried to draw back the tail, but it was too late!
The next moment, Suiren straightened the tail and whacked it hard with the tree branch. With a ripping sound, the tail broke off, twitching violently in Suiren’s hand like a tentacle.
“Dammit!” Pride Great Soul Overlord flew into a rage. He could not bear such great humiliation! He opened his mouth wide, in which a ball of black energy containing terrifying destructive power began to take shape.
Suiren narrowed his eyes and waved his hand. The dragon tail immediately flew toward Bu Fang. “Grill this tail first, boy!” He laughed wildly.
Bu Fang’s eyes lit up. Nethery was in need of nourishment, and this Soul Overlord’s flesh was just the right ingredient!
He shook his hand, and the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife immediately fell into his grip. He thrust out the knife, removed all the scales from the tail, and cut it into three pieces.
With a thought in his head, the Black Turtle Constellation Wok appeared, spinning, and the three pieces of dragon tail fell into it. He then snapped his fingers. Countless herbs fell from the void into the wok. After that, he raised his palm, from which the Spring of Life came pouring into the wok, emitting a strong life force.
Finally, he flicked his finger and threw out the divine flame. It fell under the wok and began to burn.
“A dragon tail must be used to make soup to provide great nourishment,” Bu Fang said calmly.
The people around them were dumbfounded. Suiren and Bu Fang were indeed two gluttons. They actually discussed how to cook the Great Soul Overlord’s tail in front of him… They simply did not give him any face!
However, according to Suiren, why should they give any face to beasts?!
Suiren looked wild. He put away the tree branch, charged out with bare hands, and began to punch and kick Pride Great Soul Overlord. He did not use any fancy move. All he got were simple and violent moves!
With just his fists and legs, he beat the Soul Overlord senseless!
Sun Wukong watched excitedly and kept scratching his cheeks. He thought this was how a fight should be!
Tongtian also calmly watched the battle with a smile. It always gladdened his heart to watch Soul Demons being tortured.
Pride Great Soul Overlord’s head was almost blown apart. Every punch that hit him left a b.l.o.o.d.y hole on his body.
Meanwhile, the air was filled with a rich fragrance. Bu Fang sat cross-legged in the starry sky and kept adding divine herbs to the wok. The dragon tail soup was bubbling and steaming.
Pride Great Soul Overlord was suppressed. His body was crushed, but he was not dead. As a Chaotic-Saint-level Great Soul Overlord, he needed only a drop of blood to be reborn. He was immortal. He kept being crushed, then he kept recovering.
Everyone watched in awe.
Finally, when he was crushed once again, he did not recover. He became a heap of shredded meat, floating in the starry sky.
“You will all die! The Soul Demon army will surely wipe out mankind! The Soul G.o.d’s hatred for humanity is beyond your imagination!”
Pride Great Soul Overlord was afraid. He did not dare to form a solid body again and just uttered threatening words in the form of a heap of shredded meat. However, what he said was true.
“The array cannot last for too long… You are all going to die!”
Boom!
Suiren raised his fist, which was burning with fire, and then punched the heap of shredded meat, crus.h.i.+ng it further. It should take the Soul Overlord a long time to recover again.
Standing in midair, Suiren took a deep breath and smelled a strong aroma of meat, which made him hungry and his mouth water!
“It smells delicious!” He laughed. “Let me wake up my old friends and have them dine with me!”
He took a step forward, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of f.u.xi and Shennong, who were sitting cross-legged in the starry sky.
His face became serious—he dared not be careless. The soul was the most vulnerable part of a person, even if that person was a Saint of the Great Path.
He raised his hands. Red flames instantly emerged and burned in his palms. The next moment, he slapped the foreheads of f.u.xi and Shennong.
The flames burrowed into the heads of the two human emperors and began to burn. Their bodies were enveloped in flames in an instant.
Soon, shrill hissing sounds rang out from the flames. They were the voices of the Soul Demons’ will.
There was no doubt that these were the wills of two Great Soul Overlords, for they could influence f.u.xi and Shennong. Unfortunately, they had been weakened significantly by the array after pa.s.sing through the cosmic portal. As a result, they could not resist Suiren’s power.
Before long, they turned into black smoke and dissipated in the void.
Suiren’s tanned skin glowed, and there was a fire burning in his eyes. Behind him, Chaotic Energy surged, and the Flower of the Great Path bloomed. At that moment, he looked like a towering supreme being, holding up the whole world!
“Wake up! When are you going to wake up if not now? f.u.xi, Shennong, wake up! We will fight the Soul Demons together!” Suiren roared.
The flames were blazing, and the two emperors had their eyes closed as if they were being reborn. Suddenly, their eyes popped open and burst into a brilliant light, illuminating every corner of the universe in an instant!
In the distance, Bu Fang circled around the Black Turtle Constellation Wok and kept slapping it, causing it to tremble. The soup rippled and impacted the dragon tail.
Nethery sat in a corner with her arms around her legs, quietly watching Bu Fang cook. As she sniffed the fragrance in the air, she could not help but stick out her tongue and lick her lips.
Suddenly, she turned even paler. Inside her head, the voice sounded.
…
Tongtian, Yang Jian, and Sun Wukong were genuinely excited when they saw the two human emperors open their eyes.
As they opened their eyes, the whole universe seemed to brighten and fill with hope.
f.u.xi’s long white beard fluttered as he glanced at Suiren. With a thought, the eight trigrams compa.s.s flew over and fell into his hand. His face grew serious as he laid one hand on the compa.s.s and unleashed his divine sense, covering the entire universe in an instant.
At this moment, the divine herbs around Shennong that had withered were fully revived, all emitting powerful energy.
Looking at Suiren, who was laughing, f.u.xi and Shennong were a little dazed. Then, they nodded.
“It’s good that you guys woke up…” A smile appeared on Suiren’s face, then he turned his head and looked into the distance.
There, Pride Great Soul Overlord had recovered and was about to sneak away. However, his move was discovered by Suiren.
A tree branch flew out, pierced the Soul Overlord’s body in an instant, and nailed him in midair. He struggled for a while, then stopped moving.
All of a sudden, monstrous sinful energy exploded out, and then a ray of black light shot toward the array.
“Shennong, lend me your World Tree branch…” Suiren grinned, revealing his white teeth.
His tree branch could nail the Soul Demon’s body, but it could not nail his true form. The World Tree branch could.
Without hesitation, Shennong flicked his finger. The branch of the World Tree immediately fell into Suiren’s hand.
Suiren spat on each palm, rubbed them together, and then looked into the distance, locking onto the black light.
“Go!”
With a whizzing sound, the World Tree branch disappeared. When it reappeared, it pierced Pride Great Soul Overlord’s true form and then nailed him in midair. He struggled, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not break free.
He roared and hissed, and he was a little terrified.
At this moment, Bu Fang, with the wok of boiling soup in one hand, came to the Soul Overlord’s body, which was nailed in midair by the tree branch. He skinned it and cut it with great speed. He was very good at handling dragon meat.
“The dragon tail eight treasures soup is ready. Please give it a taste,” Bu Fang said.
With a thought, nine blue-and-white porcelain bowls appeared in front of him. The brownish-red soup flew out of the wok and filled every bowl. Then, the bowls flew to everyone present.
Suiren laughed and took one bowl, then sniffed at the soup with an intoxicated look.
f.u.xi and Shennong nodded to Bu Fang as they took their bowls.
Tongtian, Sun Wukong, and the others each got a bowl of dragon tail soup. The Soul Overlord struggled frantically as he watched this.
Nethery held her bowl and stared at the soup.
Bu Fang grabbed the Black Turtle Constellation Wok and waved it at the crowd. The soup spilled a little. He grinned and said, “Cheers!”
