Chapter 1921: The Blackflame General

Many cultivators had gathered outside the cave. Sensing the arrival of the Deathkins, all of them except those top dogs gave way.

Four figures of evil air of death landed as if meteorites hit the ground outside the cave. The powerful impact created powerful air blasts, sending dust into the air.

A massive amount of evil air of death spread, causing living things to wither and turning the territory into a dead land.

Four Deathkin elites emerged from the evil air of death. They appeared aggressive and behaved condescendingly.

The leading Deathkin elite, a gray-haired elderly, had a pair of unfathomable eyes. They were as dark as black holes, at which no one dared to look.

Black flames were burning on his body. But strangely, the flames did not feel hot at all. Instead, it was unusually cold—so cold that it was freezing heaven and earth over.

“It is the Blackflame General, an apex Heaven’s Reach existence, the third most powerful being under the command of Chixing Shenzi.”

“Those three elites behind him are Precept Domain-realm The Doomlords.”

“Pei Yutian is doomed with the arrival of the Blackflame General.”

“I don’t give a damn about Pei Yutian. I am more worried about whether I could make it out of here alive.”

“We have Heaven’s Reach elite here, too. I guess the Blackflame General would not dare to do any stupid.”

…

Celestial Court cultivators retreated again. They closed rank to avoid getting implicated.

They were here to take advantage of the situation, not putting their lives on the line.

Had they known earlier there were four Deathkin elites coming so quickly, they would have stayed out of this by going away a long time ago.

“Get the hell out of here if you all don’t want to die!” The Blackflame General hissed as he swept his eyes around.

Those Celestial Court cultivators, feeling as if they had been pardoned, quickly went away as quickly as they could, lest the Blackflame General would suddenly change his mind.

Face-saving was worth nothing when it was about life or death.

The eight Saint Kings coming out of the cave and wanting nothing now, were the ones fleeing the quickest.

But there were still some Celestial Court cultivators who chose to stay. Few of them, whose cultivation base was higher than Precept Domain, obviously not afraid of the Blackflame General.

“Are you all having a death wish by staying here?”

As black flame rose from the Blackflame General’s body, an aggressive energy hit those Celestial Court cultivators that were still at the scene.

His strength was at the apex of Heaven’s Reach realm. If not, he would not have become the third general under Chixing Shenzi’s command.

He used to have a short battle with a Path’s Anterior elite from the Celestial Court in the Battlefield of Merit in Xianji Mountain. Although he was outmatched, he still managed to walk away unscathed.

Bang!

Bang!

…

Following a few loud bangs, nine Celestial Court cultivators were sent flying out backward as they could not withstand the Blackflame General’s aggressive energy.

Only two Heaven’s Reach elite appeared composed as they resisted the Blackflame General’s energy with their own.

The Blackflame General spared the lives of these Celestial Court only because there were two Heaven’s Reach elites here. He just wanted to take back the Yuanhui Tribulation sacred herb and reported back to Chixing Shenzi. The rest did not matter.

The nine Celestial Court elites were shocked as they truly sensed the strength of the Blackflame General. They immediately left, not wanting to stay anymore.

They knew they were not supposed to mess with the Blackflame General even though they were Precept Domain elites.

In the blink of an eye, other than the four Deathkin elites, there were only two Heaven’s Reach elites from the Celestial Court left.

Apparently, they were not intimidated easily.

After a moment of standoff, the Blackflame General withdrew his energy. “I just want the Yuanhui Tribulation sacred herb, the rest are yours.”

“I want the Yuanhui Tribulation sacred herb, too,” said a purple-haired Saint King from the Celestial Court.

The Blackflame General frowned upon hearing that reply. His expression did not look too good.

He would have killed him had he not known this purple-haired Saint King was a tough cookie.

“Do you really want to go against me, Ziyang Saint King?” The Blackflame General looked unusually bitter.

“So what if I do? If that’s what you want, that’s what you will get.” Ziyang Saint King kept his hands behind him and appeared calm.

The Blackflame General gazed at Ziyang Saint King with a murderous look in his eyes. It seemed that a brutal battle was imminent.

But the Blackflame General suddenly toned down. “If this is the case, suit your needs.”

It was more important to take back the Yuanhui Tribulation sacred herb. Killing Ziyang Saint King would be for another time.

Right now, the strange energy field shielding the cave was about to disappear. It could no longer hold back anyone.

The three Heaven’s Reach elites, and three Deathkin Doomlords stepped forward and entered the cave. They overlooked Pei Yutian condescendingly.

But Pei Yutian was not afraid. Instead, he guffawed. “I didn’t know I could attract the attention of so many elites. The Deathkins want me dead. So too the Celestial Court elites. It looks like I am going to die this time!”

“Hand over the Yuanhui Tribulation sacred herb and I will spare your life,” said Ziyang Saint King.

The Blackflame Generals stepped out. “Death is the only punishment for those who loot His Highness Shenzi’s Yuanhui Tribulation sacred herb. No one could save his life,” he shouted.

The sound wave of his voice turned into blasts of air and hit Pei Yutian.

Bang!

Pei Yutian felt as if a hammered was pounding his chest as he was sent flying backward.

He plunged into the pond of the divine blood and submerged.

Just when the Blackflame General wanted to grab Pei Yutian out of the pond, his heart skipped a beat.

Translucent purple petals flew inside, and a strange, enchanting scent pervaded the cave.

Purple petals flew like butterflies, and they split into thousands in just a shudder, becoming a magnificent sigh of petal rain.

As beautiful as the petal rain was, it was extremely dangerous. It was a type of spiritual power attack.

An unsuspecting Precept-Domain Doomlord cried out in agony after being hit by a few petals.

“The spiritual power is scary. Who the hell is it?”

“The spiritual power of this person, I am afraid, is close to 60-order. We can’t fight it. Fall back now!”

The three Doomlords beat a hasty retreat when they sensed the terrifying power of the petal rain.

At the cave opening, a graceful figure walked in slowly, surrounded by countless petals. Her beauty was beyond compare.

Seeing the graceful figure, Ziyang Saint King’s heart missed a beat as he recognized her. “Fairy of a Hundred Flowers!”

He did not expect to see the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers to appear here.

For all he knew, the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers should still be at the Sword Vault Place in Central Region. How did she suddenly appear in Northern Region?

Especially when the dimensional wormhole in Northern Region was experiencing a problem now. The Deathkin had control over it. It was difficult for her to come to Northern Region from Central Region.

“How did the spiritual power of the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers become so powerful? Could it be that she was concealing her true strength in the Celestial Domain of Truth?”

Ziyang Saint King had many questions on his mind.

The appearance of the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers here was not a good thing. There was no doubt about it. She must be coming for the Yuanhui Tribulation sacred herb, too.

“The Deathkin has brought calamity to and caused endless bloodshed in Northern Region. Fairy, let us join hands to kill Blackflame General and his men.”

His tub-thumping and forceful rhetoric sounded as if his purpose of coming here was to fight the Deathkin elites.

Another Saint King elite from the Celestial Court came to his senses and echoed what Ziyang Saint King said. They quickly surrounded the four Deadkins, including the Blackflame Generals.

They couldn’t help it. The spiritual power of the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers intimidated them, and they were too afraid to go against her.

A thought came to the Blackflame General’s mind. “Kill our way out with the Will of Death!” he said.

Following immediately, he clapped his hands together. As he chanted some esoteric incantation, a gigantic shadow, as tall as a hundred yards, flew out of his body and filled the entire cave.

The shadow, looking like a death god, exuded a powerful air of death.

The other three Doomlords also clapped their hands together to perform a Mystic Technique of Death, respectively.

Obviously, their Will of Death was not as powerful as the Blackflame General. There was no shadow of the death god formed.

The Will of Death was a power unique to the Deathkins. It was unfathomably mysterious. Once performed, it could increase the strength of the Deathkins tremendously.

The Will of Death of the four Deathkin elites came together and turned into a telekinetic storm, sucking all the petals into it.

Next, the Shadow of Death behind the Blackflame General swung a Scythe of Death at the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers.

Using the Shadow of Death, the Blackflame General could be as powerful as a Path’s Anterior elite.

“The suppression of my spiritual power here is indeed giving me a problem.” Ji Fanxin shook her head slightly.

Noticing the coming Scythe of Death, Ji Fanxin reached out a finger and tapped forward lightly.

A purple divine glow flew out of her fingertip instantly, hitting the Scythe of Death head-on.

Boom!

The Scythe of Death vibrated, then shattered.

But the purple divine glow did not dissipate. Instead, it aimed straight at the Shadow of Death.

The Blackflame General focused his mind and gathered more Will of Death. “Break!”

A telekinetic energy burst out, rocking the entire dimension, as if it was going to puncture it.

Boom!

The purple divine glow disappeared along with the telekinetic energy waves.

Seeing this outcome, Ji Fanxin frowned. The place was suppressing her spiritual power so much that she could not perform at her best.

Meanwhile, the Blackflame General was just as stunned. The four of them had joined hands to perform a Mystic Technique of Death, yet they still could not defeat Ji Fanxin. Not only that, they found themselves completely outmatched.

Just then, Zhang Ruochen, Xiang Chunan, and Luo Yi had arrived and entered the cave to stand alongside Ji Fanxin.

Zhang Ruochen summoned the Azuresky Pagoda in his hand. “How dare you Deathkins intrude into the Kunlun Realm! You all must have a death wish!”

He cast out the Azuresky Pagoda as he finished talking.

Beams of green lights radiated from the Azuresky Pagoda. Countless inscriptions had appeared, and the surging Supreme Power caused the entire cave to shake.

“A Supreme Artifact!”

The Blackflame General’s face collapsed as he sensed a real threat.

“Death Sacrifice!”

Without any hesitation, the Blackflame General offered his own vitality and infused it with the Shadow of Death.
