Fate-Defying Demon Emperor

”What, General Wu Wei is dead!”

When General Wu Wei’s aura was rapidly dissipating, everyone was shocked and utterly amazed.

Even though the Grim Reaper’s deadly whip pierced through General Wu Wei’s heart, the thick death qi instantly spread throughout his body, further penetrating his sea of consciousness, destroying it and leaving him with no chance to struggle.

Saint Realm Sixth Layer, the garrison commander of the Red Earth Mining District, died just like that.

If General Wu Wei’s death on any other day would be lamentable yet insignificant to the larger scheme, his death now broke the already unstable balance.

With General Wu Wei dead, who could stop Saint Rain’s Great Saint now?

”Good, well done, the next one should be the Nineteenth Prince!”

Mie Dian the Great Saint laughed heartily, his face filled with exuberance. Bloodthirsty and murderous, he had come to kill Su Han, so seeing General Wu Wei killed was utterly satisfying to him.

His offensive grew even more fierce, causing Wei Wenzheng to spit blood repeatedly and making it increasingly difficult for him to hold on.

”No time to waste, go and slay the Nineteenth Prince!”

Black Cloud the Great Saint quickly spoke up, reminding Saint Rain’s Great Saint that if Su Han died, their mission would be complete, and they could return for Wei Wenzheng and others later.

Saint Rain’s Great Saint, with a cold personality, showed no emotional response to killing General Wu Wei. She retracted her deadly whip and turned to walk towards Su Han.

Whooosh!

Torrential black rain poured down like a broken Milky Way, flooding the world in rainwater.

Saint Rain’s Great Saint was soaking wet, full of allure, but no one dared to touch this rose of death, aware that whoever approached would die.

”This is not good, Saint Rain’s Great Saint is coming!”

Wei Ying, who was attacking the Holy Formation, sensed General Wu Wei’s fall, and upon seeing Saint Rain’s Great Saint approaching, felt a sudden, explosive sense of crisis, as if death itself was drawing near.

”Aunt, don’t worry about her, keep attacking the Holy Formation!”

At this moment, Su Han spoke. His large formation pattern was nearing completion, only ten percent away. Once the Heavenly Locking Earth Sacred Formation was broken, he could attack or retreat, significantly reducing the danger.

Swish!

Su Han reached out and summoned a corpse puppet, rushing towards Saint Rain’s Great Saint to buy precious time.

”Good!”

Though unaware of Su Han’s intentions, the corpse puppet could delay for a while.

Wei Ying nodded in agreement, then launched a more violent assault on the Heavenly Locking Earth Sacred Formation. The formation patterns fluctuated, revealing more vulnerabilities.

Su Han’s eyes were sharp, and the Nine Heavens Eye shone brilliantly as he stared intently at the formation patterns, operating the Glyph Secret, constantly sketching new patterns with his fingers to merge them into the large formation.

The large formation pattern was continuously enhancing, nearing completion, about to succeed.

At this moment, the corpse puppet, surrounded by gray disease qi, rushed towards Saint Rain’s Great Saint, unaffected by the corrosive death qi of the black rain, blocking her path.

”Hmph, a mere puppet dares to act fierce in front of me. Since you are already dead, let me annihilate you completely!”

Saint Rain’s Great Saint saw through the essence of the corpse puppet at a glance. Her expression remained as calm as still water, showing no emotion, yet her strike was immensely powerful, decisive, and fierce.

”Heaven Rank Intermediate Martial Technique: Yin Death Transforming Dragon Qi!”

Saint Rain’s Great Saint extended her delicate, jade-like left hand, akin to a finely crafted artwork, and then delivered a slap towards the corpse puppet.

Her jade-like palm swiftly turned jet black, with death qi circulating within, backed by the power of time.

A single palm strike unleashed a towering death qi dragon, a kilometer long, streaking across the sky, breaking through space, carrying the majestic black rain, and striking the corpse puppet.

The thick death qi annihilated the disease qi on the corpse puppet, and the death qi dragon pierced through the puppet’s chest.

Crack!

Saint Rain’s Great Saint left her handprint on the corpse puppet, causing cracks to spread across it, then it shattered with a loud bang, turning into a pile of debris.

Though comparable to a Saint Realm Third Layer, the corpse puppet couldn’t withstand even a single attack from Saint Rain’s Great Saint, blown to pieces.

This... this is simply unbelievable!

A puppet is ultimately a puppet, not a true saint, lacking consciousness, many powerful Martial Techniques and Divine Skills, and any treasures.

But being able to blow up the corpse puppet in one strike is enough to prove Saint Rain’s Great Saint’s power. At this moment, she stepped over the shattered pieces and proceeded towards Su Han.

”Xing’er, I’ll hold her off, you run!”

With the corpse puppet destroyed, Wei Ying no longer focused on attacking the holy formation. She only wanted to use her life to delay Saint Rain’s Great Saint, buying Su Han time to escape.

Swish!

Wei Ying wielded a soft sword, turning to face Saint Rain’s Great Saint, while Su Han silently focused all his attention on the large formation pattern.

Just a bit more, just a little bit more. Give me some time, and I will surely complete it.

Racing against time, Su Han pushed his Spiritual Essence to the limit, fully concentrating on sketching the formation pattern, aiming to finish before Saint Rain’s Great Saint closed in.

Su Han knew very well that with General Wu Wei and the corpse puppet dead, the situation was extremely dire. If he wanted to survive, or even turn the tables, breaking the formation was his only chance and his last chance.

This was a race against life and death, and Wei Ying understood this too, so she directly used a forbidden technique.

”Low Grade Forbidden Technique: Blood Ignition Secret Technique!”

Holding more than one forbidden technique, Wei Ying saw this one as the best choice to delay time. Her holy blood ignited across her body, forming a layer of blood flames, boosting her aura, temporarily achieving the power of Saint Realm Fifth Layer.

”No one can defy death, you are destined to die on this land!”

Saint Rain’s Great Saint spoke coldly, like a final judgment. She waved her hand, and the deadly whip lashed fiercely at Wei Ying as the overwhelming black rain surged in from all directions, suppressing the blood flames around Wei Ying’s body.

Snap!

The deadly whip, a Supreme Grade Holy Artifact, combined with Saint Rain’s Great Saint’s power, was unrivaled, striking Wei Ying so hard her flesh tore open, throwing her back, gravely wounded.

Despite using a forbidden technique and being strong, Wei Ying was still insufficient against Saint Rain’s Great Saint, now battered and breathless.

”With my Spiritual Essence, manifest Great Freedom Sword Qi!”

Wei Ying’s eyes were resolute. She channeled all her Spiritual Essence into her soft sword, unleashing the strongest Great Freedom Sword Qi.

”Overestimating yourself!”

Saint Rain’s Great Saint twisted time, exerted domain pressure, simultaneously using the deadly whip and death qi dragon to shatter the Great Freedom Sword Qi and strike Wei Ying into a bloodied mess, sending her flying into the ground, life or death unknown.

With Wei Ying thrown off, no one could hold off Saint Rain’s Great Saint anymore. She took a step, arriving at Su Han’s back.

Life or death, now is the moment!
