Chapter 1371 – The Thought Body’s Anger
Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun, who had been demonized by the Thought Body, paused for a moment after unleas.h.i.+ng a salvo of attacks, his face twisting in struggle.
“Save me! Hurry and save me!” Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun cried out in pain.
It was clear that Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun had managed to maintain a sliver of his mind and was trying to fight back against the Thought Body.
This sight made all the Giant G.o.d Race members pause. After all, Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun was a member of the Giant G.o.d Race, and the Giant G.o.d Race was facing a severe shortage of manpower. A single peak Rank Eight Ancient G.o.d was extremely important to the Giant G.o.d Race.
But a moment later, Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun once more revealed a cold and cruel face.
“Die, all of you die!” Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun transformed into a white streak of light and attacked again, emitting a sinister and chilling aura. He waved his arms, unleas.h.i.+ng a series of white blades at the group.
“Ancient G.o.d Sundermount, fall back!” Xin Wuheng immediately yelled.
The demonized Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun was extremely powerful and was also skilled in Time Intent. Ancient G.o.d Sundermount’s cultivation was too low, so sticking around in this place would only mean his death.
“Giant G.o.d Finger!” Xin Wuheng circulated his bloodline energy and thrust out his finger.
These attacks were too difficult to dodge, so it was better to take them head-on and destroy them.
Boom! Bang!
A dazzling white bolt of finger energy annihilated the majority of the white blades.
On the other end, Ancient G.o.d Resplendence, who was a peak Rank Eight – a tiny bit stronger than Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun – was able to fend off the attacks by exerting her full strength.
As for Zhao Feng, he could use the observation ability of the G.o.d’s Spiritual Eye, his Time Intent, and Spatial Blink, to narrowly dodge each attack.
“Strike!” Xin Wuheng called out.
He and Ancient G.o.d Resplendence both activated their Giant G.o.d Race’s bloodlines. While still not revealing their true bodies, they increased their power and defense.
Simultaneously using a powerful bloodline combat skill, they unleashed an enormous white palm of energy. The power of this palm of light was simply tremendous, and it was also infused with the power of the Giant G.o.d Race bloodline. It was an extremely damaging and large-scale technique.
“Chaos Origin G.o.d Suppressing Seal!” Zhao Feng used his own large-scale attack move. He circulated Chaos Origin Divine Power into a gigantic gloomy seal that thundered downward.
The trio’s attacks engulfed the entire area.
“That should be enough,” Ancient G.o.d Resplendence softly said.
“Watch out!” Zhao Feng suddenly shouted.
Boom!
Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun lunged out of the destructive storm, a wicked and bloodthirsty look on his face.
“Kill!” He charged right at Xin Wuheng, his palms flailing, sending out several white blades of energy.
“How could this be? He wasn’t even injured?” Ancient G.o.d Resplendence was shocked.
“The Thought Body attached to him is very abnormal!” Zhao Feng called out.
Just when the demonized Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun was about to be struck by those lethal attacks, he unleashed an extremely high-level Time Intent that allowed him to hide in the weakest part of the attacks. Members of the Giant G.o.d Race already had powerful physical bodies and formidable defenses. After sustaining heavy injuries, he used Time Intent to rapidly heal his wounds.
This Thought Body possessed an extremely high-level Time Intent – at least Level Eight, perhaps even Level Nine – and it was extremely proficient with it.
Thwis.h.!.+
The little thieving cat shot onto Zhao Feng’s shoulder in a silver-gray streak of light.
“The members of Ancient Soul Hall are about to arrive?” Zhao Feng’s expression dimmed.
Previously, if the five of them all managed to increase their strength a little, they might have had a chance of fighting back against the Ancient Soul Hall trio. But now, Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun had unexpectedly become an enemy. If the trio from Ancient Soul Hall arrived now, the situation would become even more dangerous.
“We have to resolve Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun’s situation as quickly as possible!” Zhao Feng shot to Xin Wuheng’s side and told him what was going on with Ancient Soul Hall.
“Work together and kill him!” Xin Wuheng immediately made his decision.
He and Ancient G.o.d Resplendence charged out to take Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun from the sides.
Xin Wuheng still thrust out his finger, which thrummed with formidable energy. Ancient G.o.d Resplendence, on the other hand, used a set of Water-type combat skills. The sky was filled with giant palms of water that surged like waves.
Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun now had very little s.p.a.ce in which he could dodge.
Flame Soul Devil Eye!
Zhao Feng now unleashed the Eye Intent he had been gathering in an eye-bloodline technique.
The majority of his eye-bloodline techniques were attacks that required locking on to his target, and they didn’t cover a very large area, so he would find it very hard to hit the demonized Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun. Thus, Zhao Feng used a soul illusion art instead. As long as Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun lost control of his mind and slowed down, he would be much easier to hit with other eye-bloodline techniques.
Bzzz! Hwoom!
A scarlet mist rushed out of Zhao Feng’s left eye. This searing red soul energy covered a rather large area, and the already-restricted Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun had nowhere to run.
“It hit!” Ancient G.o.d Resplendence rejoiced.
The Thought Body controlling Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun was certain to have been affected by Zhao Feng’s eye-bloodline technique and would probably have its ability to control Cheng Yun greatly reduced.
But the result was not what they imagined.
“Kill!” After entering the range of Zhao Feng’s soul illusion art, Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun was barely affected and turned around to charge at Ancient G.o.d Resplendence.
“How could this be!?” Ancient G.o.d Resplendence called out in alarm.
Zhao Feng was also rather taken aback. Although he had not used his Origin energy, his eye-bloodline technique wasn’t that weak.
Upon carefully thinking about it, Zhao Feng concluded that it was not because his eye-bloodline technique was too weak; the Thought Body was almost certainly some peerless expert in the past. Otherwise, it wouldn’t possess such formidable Time Intent.
Yet even after all the time that had pa.s.sed, and even though it was just a Thought Body at this point, it was still able to have such a high resistance to soul attacks. There was only one possibility: this Thought Body belonged to some powerful and unique ancient race that was extremely resistant to soul attacks.
At this moment:
Rumble!
Several explosions could be heard from the entrance.
“They’re coming!” Zhao Feng’s expression sank.
The demonized Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun was too hard to deal with, and the group didn’t have enough time to capture him. And now, the trio from Ancient Soul Hall was here.
“There’s someone else?” Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun’s head tilted as he turned his cold eyes to the entrance.
Boom! Bang!
The entrance was blasted to pieces by a Divine Power attack. The Ancient Soul Hall trio, faint smiles on their faces, slowly strode in.
“Ancient Soul Hall!” A look of despair appeared on Ancient G.o.d Resplendence’s face. If Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun had not been demonized, they might have had a chance to fight back.
The Ancient Soul Hall trio scanned the area, and their faces froze in shock. They originally believed that the Giant G.o.d Race members would be waiting to meet them, but things turned out to be completely different from what they imagined.
“Haha, how laughable! Fighting among each other at a time like this?” The peak Rank Eight from Ancient Soul Hall heartily laughed.
However, the Rank Nine Ancient G.o.d and Ancient G.o.d Jailsea noticed something strange about Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun.
“He’s under the control of a Thought Body.” Ancient G.o.d Jailsea smiled in amus.e.m.e.nt.
“Good Sir, why don’t we work together and kill these people?” Ancient G.o.d Jailsea called out.
Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun had clearly been infected and controlled by an Evil Thought, causing him to turn against the Giant G.o.d Race. The fact that Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun was still alive indicated that he was extremely strong – strong enough that the others working together had failed to kill him in the brief time available.
“Oh no!” Xin Wuheng’s expression dimmed.
Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun was under the control of a Thought Body, and this Thought Body was inherently insensible, wanting only to kill people. Xin Wuheng had actually hoped that Ancient Soul Hall would immediately attack Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun, forcing the Thought Body to counterattack against Ancient Soul Hall and a.s.sist the Giant G.o.d Race.
He never would’ve expected Ancient G.o.d Jailsea to be so cautious. Not only was he in no rush to attack, he even tried to establish a good relations.h.i.+p with the possessed Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun.
For a moment, everyone was watching Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun. His mind was delirious and extremely unstable. No one knew what decision he would make.
“You…!” Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun stared at the members of Ancient Soul Hall, his expression twisting in rage.
The three members of Ancient Soul Hall slightly paled. There was something off about Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun’s expression. Logically speaking, the Thought Body controlling Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun shouldn’t have any particular hostility toward them, and yet…
“Your bodies… have their smell!” Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun’s expression turned savage as if he was about to explode with endless rage and loathing.
Whoos.h.!.+
Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun shot toward the Ancient Soul Hall trio.
“Kill, kill, kill!” His mouth constantly muttering these words and his body seething with fury and killing intent, he madly unleashed attack after attack.
Swooos.h.!.+
The air was filled with white blades of energy, like the sky itself was falling down.
“What’s going on? He’s gone mad!” the Rank Nine Ancient G.o.d of Ancient Soul Hall blurted out in alarm.
Ancient G.o.d Jailsea said nothing, his expression darkening. The Thought Body attached to Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun appeared to have an extremely deep grudge against them. It was so bad that Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun made them his number one target the moment they appeared.
Boooooom!
Ancient G.o.d Jailsea waved a palm, unleas.h.i.+ng several palms of energy to contend against Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun’s attacks.
“This…” The Giant G.o.d Race members were stunned. This scene was not something they had expected.
Earlier, the demonized Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun attacked out of a cruel and bloodthirsty instinct, but now, Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun was attacking the Ancient Soul Hall trio as if there was some extremely important reason behind it.
There was a chance that, when it was alive, this Thought Body had some incredibly deep grudge against Ancient Soul Hall. However, the Ancestral Legacy Treasury had always been under the control of the Giant G.o.d Race. The people of Ancient Soul Hall should have never been here before.
“Kill!” Xin Wuheng whispered.
There was no time to think about these things; escaping was far more important. The demonized Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun was much stronger than he was before being possessed. If they worked together with him, they actually had an even greater chance of escaping.
Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+
The Giant G.o.d Race members and Zhao Feng charged at the Ancient Soul Hall trio.
“Kill!” Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun was constantly roaring as he lashed out. High-level Time Intent engulfed Ancient G.o.d Jailsea, constantly affecting his condition.
“Giant G.o.d Finger!” Xin Wuheng circulated his Giant G.o.d Race bloodline and unleashed his formidable and high-level attack.
“Tribulation Lightning Eye Flame!” Zhao Feng unsealed his Origin energy and unleashed a powerful Tribulation Lightning eye-bloodline technique.
After unleas.h.i.+ng a salvo of attacks, Zhao Feng and the others began to flee. Although they could contend against a half-step G.o.d Lord right now, in a long-term struggle, they would still be the losers.
“Don’t even think about escaping!” Ancient G.o.d Jailsea grimaced as he pursued.
“Kill, kill!” Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun’s eyes were blood-red, his mind guided by fury and killing intent as he madly attacked Ancient G.o.d Jailsea. High-level Time Intent descended on Ancient G.o.d Jailsea, causing him to slow down.
“d.a.m.n, this scoundrel…!” Ancient G.o.d Jailsea was infuriated.
The demonized Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun was extremely fast and had an even higher resistance to soul attacks than his own Ancient Soul Race, making him extremely difficult to deal with. In addition, Ancient G.o.d Jailsea and the others still had no idea just how they had offended the Thought Body controlling Ancient G.o.d Cheng Yun.
