Chapter 1823

Battle Again

"This is …"

Zhuowen stared fixedly at the lake of black water before him, and he was indescribably shocked in his heart. The black water in the lake had the same aura as the black water in the pool of black water in the cave.

In other words, the entire lake of black water was constructed from the blood of saints. Even though it was the dregs of saint blood, it was sufficient to shock Zhuowen.

The lake of black water was truly too large. The amount of saint blood required to construct such a large lake was something Zhuowen didn't even dare imagine.

Zhuowen couldn't help but recall the few hundred black balls he encountered in the pool of black water. He knew that the number of black balls at the bottom of the lake was probably even greater than the pool of black water from before, and there would be many, many more.

"Brother Yuan, the Divine Master has already entered the lake of black water?" Zhuowen asked with a solemn gaze.

The expression on Zhuowen's face didn't escape Yuan Hongwen's notice. However, he didn't think too much about it and nodded instead, "The Divine Master, the four masters of the battlefield, and over a dozen Heavenly Immortal Realm experts have all entered. Right, there's also the Master of the Divine Tomb and Senior Shi Ji."

When he spoke up to here, Yuan Hongwen glanced at Zhuowen and shook his head, "Zhuowen, this place is extraordinarily dangerous. Even the Divine Master instructed me not to vainly attempt to enter this place. Otherwise, my life would be in danger. I advise you to give up on the thought of entering this place."

At the instant Zhuowen flashed over here, Yuan Hongwen knew that Zhuowen intended to enter the lake of black water, so he advised Zhuowen with kind words at this moment.

Even though Zhuowen had domineeringly defeated him in the final Path of Life and Death, Yuan Hongwen didn't hold a grudge because of this. As far as he was concerned, the law of the jungle was the way of the world.

Zhuowen had relied on true ability to defeat him. Moreover, they'd fought to their heart's content in that battle, causing Yuan Hongwen to feel regretful that he hadn't met Zhuowen earlier.

Zhuowen shook his head instead and said, "I must enter this place. You can't stop me."

Yuan Hongwen's eyes narrowed as a vast aura suddenly surged out explosively. Instantly, the surrounding atmosphere became much more stagnant and terrifying. It was like a volcano had erupted, and it was extremely heavy.

"Not necessarily!"

Yuan Hongwen's eyes blazed with fighting spirit. He stared at Zhuo Wen and said with a smile, "Zhuo Wen, Hong Wen's memories of our last battle are still fresh. If you want to enter the black lake today, you'll have to defeat me first."

Zhuowen looked at Yuan Hongwen and asked in a deep voice, "Are you really going to stop me?"

Yuan Hongwen chuckled, "Why not?"

"Alright then, let's decide the outcome of this battle with one move!

You and I will use our strongest moves. If I lose, I will retreat! "

Zhuowen took a step forward, and the aura in his body surged up like an upside-down waterfall. The surrounding air suddenly turned into countless cyclones, and these cyclones began to condense in the air, forming a huge vortex that could swallow the heavens and the earth.

"That's exactly what I was thinking!"

Yuan Hongwen let out a long laugh. He stepped on the air with his right foot and floated in midair. Soon after, his gaze became serious.

Bang bang bang!

Yuan Hongwen's entire body erupted with a terrifying blood mist, and a vast and terrifying aura suddenly erupted from his body.

"God-slaying Blood Eye!"

Yuan Hongwen's gaze became extremely serious. He bit the tip of his tongue and spat out another mouthful of Blood Essence. His face was slightly pale. The Blood Eye was his strongest Celestial Art. It was extremely powerful, but the price to use it was also very high.

When the Blood Essence fell on the blood mist in front of him, it actually caused the blood mist to wriggle violently.

All of a sudden, the squirming blood mist suddenly exploded, and countless lines of blood burst out from it.

These blood threads spread out in all directions, forming numerous ferocious and terrifying blood eyes in the air above Yuan Hongwen.

There were so many Blood Eyes that they almost covered the entire sky above the Black Lake. It was as if the whole world was being watched by these countless Blood Eyes.

Whoosh!

As soon as the Blood Eyes appeared, the entire Black Lake was set off by monstrous waves, mixed with the ferocious howls of some Exotic Beasts.

"Awoo!"

Taotie, who was originally lying on the shore, stared at Zhuowen with an extremely unfriendly gaze. An aura that could even shake the world flowed out of Taotie's body.

Yuan Hongwen stood under the countless Blood Eyes. He looked at Taotie and said in a deep voice, "This is a battle between me and Zhuowen. I hope Brother Taotie will not interfere."

Tao Tie roared at Yuan Hongwen. Soon after, it glanced at Zhuo Wen. Soon after, that terrifying aura slowly dissipated. Tao Tie tilted its head and once again laid on the shore, no longer caring about the battle on this side.

Zhuo Wen solemnly glanced at the Taotie. This Taotie gave him a very strong feeling. This kind of giant beast contained the true bloodline of the Taotie. Its strength could not be underestimated.

"Brother Zhuo, do you dare to fight me?"

Yuan Hongwen's eyes were filled with fighting intent. His voice was like thunder as he looked down at Zhuowen.

As Yuan Hongwen looked down, the countless Blood Eyes in the sky followed his gaze and fell on Zhuowen.

With so many blood eyes gathered on Zhuo Wen's body, even Zhuo Wen felt his scalp go numb.

However, Zhuowen was not afraid. He leaped up, his long hair and robe fluttering. He pointed his right hand at the void and said, "Slaughtering Finger of the Underworld!"

Zhuo Wen pointed, and countless Yellow Springs water droplets flew out of his body.

Yuan Hongwen frowned. He had experienced the Slaughtering Finger of the Underworld during the Battle of the Gods. Its power was ordinary and could not be compared to his Blood Eyes.

Could it be that this Zhuo Wen used this move to look down on him, Yuan Hong Wen?

"Eh?

The power of Zhuowen's move seems to have increased a lot, and it's still increasing. "

Suddenly, Yuan Hongwen's expression changed. He saw the Yellow Springs water droplets around Zhuo Wen increasing in number, becoming denser and denser. In an instant, the Yellow Springs water droplets broke through the million mark and showed no signs of stopping.

Two million, three million … all the way to ten million. There were simply too many Yellow Springs droplets around Zhuo Wen, densely packed together. Even Yuan Hongwen had to pay attention to the aura emanating from the gathering of so many Yellow Springs droplets.

"Slaughtering Finger of the Underworld: Gate of Reincarnation!"

Zhuowen formed a seal with his right hand. Immediately, the millions of Underworld Water Droplets gathered together and formed a circular gate. This circular gate was very big, at least several thousand feet in size. It appeared behind Zhuowen in the void and kept rotating. It was as if this gate really hid reincarnation.

Yuan Hongwen let out a long laugh and took a step forward. The blood-red eyes that filled the sky blinked one after another, and strange and thick blood-red lines shot out, interweaving in the void.

The blood lines moved at an extremely fast speed, spreading around Zhuo Wen's body in an instant. They kept intersecting, forming an irregular fence of blood lines. Furthermore, these bloody fences were extremely irregular, as if they had been randomly drawn in the void.

The moment the blood lines intersected, Zhuo Wen felt an extremely terrifying sense of restraint around him. This feeling of restraint was very strong, and it froze Zhuo Wen's limbs in the air. He was unable to move at all.

Yuan Hongwen walked over step by step. Under the illumination of the countless blood lines, his eyes turned blood-red and frenzied. He pointed a finger at Zhuo Wen's forehead.

Zhuowen snorted and pointed with his right hand. The huge reincarnation gate behind him spun faster and faster and blocked in front of Zhuowen.

A mysterious power of reincarnation spread out. The surrounding densely packed irregular Blood Immortals were directly sent into reincarnation by the Gate of Reincarnation, disappearing without a trace.

The moment Yuan Hongwen's finger landed on the Gate of Reincarnation, a clear and melodious' ding 'was heard. Yuan Hongwen's expression changed at this moment.

He only felt that the sky and earth were spinning. His mind kept replaying all his past experiences. This feeling kept repeating, as if he had fallen into a reincarnation that he could not extricate himself from.

"Blood Eyes Condense, Heaven and Earth Collapse!"

Yuan Hongwen's eyes showed that he was struggling. Then, he let out a low roar. Suddenly, the Blood Eyes that filled the sky burst into countless blood mist. The blood mist began to condense and eventually turned into a huge Blood Eye.

This Blood Eye was so huge that as soon as it appeared, it stared at the reincarnation gate. A burst of nothingness came from the gate, and the surface of the reincarnation gate made continuous explosive sounds.

Zhuowen stared at this scene with narrowed eyes. He snorted and pointed with his right hand, saying, "Reincarnation Gate, reincarnation. Massacre in the Yellow Springs!"

After that, the sound of machinery came from the gate. The gate began to open, and a pressure that had never been there before poured out from the gate.

Rumble!

Behind the Gate of Reincarnation, a finger that was tens of thousands of feet long stretched out and pointed at Yuan Hongwen. It was as if a giant was trying to crush an ant to death.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The huge finger pointed at the Blood Eye. Then, countless blood mist burst out in mid-air. The blood mist gathered together and formed a Blood Rain that sprinkled around and formed the Blood Eye.

Zhuowen's Yellow Springs Finger of Massacre had less than a million Yellow Springs Water Droplets, so its power was not fully unleashed.

Now, Zhuowen had absorbed too much essence from the Black Pool. The number of Yellow Springs Water Droplets had skyrocketed and reached the ten million mark.

The Yellow Springs Finger of Massacre, which was originally not very powerful, had suddenly become the strongest Immortal Art he had. In addition, Zhuowen's cultivation had advanced to the late Earth Immortal Realm.

Yuan Hongwen, who was difficult to deal with in the past, was not as big of a threat to Zhuowen as before.

The Yellow Springs Finger of Massacre was too terrifying. When the finger pointed, the Blood Eye took a step back. When the finger pointed twice, the Blood Eye took two steps back.

Yuan Hongwen retreated step by step. With every step he took, the blood mist on his body would involuntarily erupt. Yuan Hongwen's eyes were filled with horror.

"I can't lose!"

Yuan Hongwen's eyes were red. He was unwilling. He had already lost the Battle of Gods once. He would not allow himself to lose a second time.

With a lot of unwillingness, Yuan Hongwen pointed with his right hand. An invisible ripple spread out and enveloped the Blood Eye.

Instantly, the Blood Eye erupted with a terrifying power. Its power had reached another level. It stopped in one fell swoop. Then, countless Blood Immortals gushed out and completely covered the Yellow Springs Finger of Massacre.

"Dao Intent?

Unfortunately, the strength of your Dao Insight is too weak!

Let me show you what the real power of Dao Intent is! "
