Berserk God of War

Chapter 1199: Chapter 1199: Luring the Tiger from Its Mountain, Turning the Tables

Earlier, Sikong Jing had intended to ask the Double-Horned Demon Tiger if there was a way to deal with the Tower-shaped Emperor Artifact within the Soul Snatching Battlefield, but the answer was no, so he could only hope that Yin Henzi would willingly abandon the Tower-shaped Emperor Artifact.

“Similarly, I can use an Emperor’s Artifact, and you will achieve nothing.”

Sikong Jing’s voice boomed: “You’re certainly confident that you can kill me with your terrifying Spiritual Shadow Power, but with the Emperor’s Artifact protecting me, and with only half a day left until the Soul Snatching Battlefield closes, are you really that confident now?”

After battling for half a day, Sikong Jing believed Yin Henzi was no longer as confident, so he continued…

“You not only want to kill me, but you also want to snatch the Blood Charm Demon Cat and the Double-Horned Demon Tiger.”

“As long as I can stall until the battlefield closes, you’ll get nothing.”

With Sikong Jing’s words, Yin Henzi’s gaze gradually grew colder.

For him, abandoning the Tower-shaped Emperor Artifact meant possibly being killed, but what the East Dominator Kid said wasn’t without reason. Time was running out, and if he couldn’t eliminate the East Dominator Kid quickly, he could forget about getting the Blood Charm Demon Cat.

Thinking of this, Yin Henzi spoke with a sinister tone: “It’s not impossible for me to discard the Emperor’s Artifact. Just let me take a look at your Emperor’s Artifact first, and let me check if you have any other Emperor’s Artifacts on you, then I’ll agree.”

He still didn’t believe that Sikong Jing had no Emperor’s Artifact bonus.

So before discarding his Emperor’s Artifact, he had to ensure that Sikong Jing had no Emperor’s Artifacts on him…

Who knew, perhaps Sikong Jing had two Emperor’s Artifacts? What if there was another one after discarding one? Yin Henzi couldn’t take such a risk.

But for Sikong Jing, Yin Henzi’s proposal was obviously impossible. Letting him check him would be no different from suicide.

Thus, Sikong Jing sneered repeatedly: “Now it’s you who’s anxious, not me.”

“I don’t mind if I can’t kill you. Even if you return to your body outside, you’ll still be in a heavily injured state.”

Sikong Jing smiled, staring directly at Yin Henzi, and continued to attack.

As time passed, Yin Henzi still didn’t want to discard the Tower-shaped Emperor Artifact. He launched another attack, and the two battled for several more hours, until only one hour remained before the entrance would close.

At this moment, Yin Henzi truly became anxious.

He realized that even if they fought for another hour, he definitely wouldn’t be able to take down Sikong Jing. Finally, he forcefully shouted: “Fine, I agree with you, we discard our Emperor’s Artifacts at the same time…”

Yin Henzi had to take a risk.

However, this time Sikong Jing refused, sarcastically saying, “Sorry, I changed my mind.”

The implication was that he no longer wanted to discard their Emperor’s Artifacts simultaneously.

This made Yin Henzi shout angrily, feeling that he had been toyed with.

But in the next moment, Yin Henzi suddenly calmed down and unleashed his Tower-shaped Emperor Artifact. Instantly, the Tower-shaped Emperor Artifact expanded in the air, releasing waves of Frost Power, clearly intending to suppress Sikong Jing…

And Sikong Jing wasn’t polite at all, throwing out the Blood Devouring Dragon Pearl to counter the Tower-shaped Emperor Artifact.

Instantly, the two Emperor’s Artifacts collided in the air…

Gazing at Sikong Jing’s Blood Devouring Dragon Pearl, Yin Henzi hesitated slightly and said, “Your Emperor’s Artifact looks somewhat familiar.”

However, he didn’t pursue the matter further and instead squinted his eyes, subtly shaking as half his Spiritual Shadow emerged from Yin Shi’s body, then swiftly wrapped around Sikong Jing.

If there were onlookers now, they wouldn’t understand what Yin Henzi was doing.

It seemed that when he threw out the Tower-shaped Emperor Artifact, it wasn’t just to suppress Sikong Jing.

Sikong Jing’s eyes also flickered with cold light, but he didn’t retaliate with a Spiritual Shadow; he only protected his Spirit Platform.

Because Sikong Jing had already guessed what Yin Henzi wanted to do.

The next moment, Yin Henzi’s half Spiritual Shadow swept around Sikong Jing, then swiftly returned to Yin Shi’s body. Locking eyes with Sikong Jing, he said, “You have no more Emperor’s Artifacts on you.”

Clearly, when Yin Henzi sent forth his Spiritual Shadow, he was checking if Sikong Jing had a second Emperor’s Artifact.

Now he confirmed that Sikong Jing had no second artifact.

Sikong Jing spoke indifferently: “Emperor’s Artifacts aren’t as common as cabbage; it’s not like I can have two just by saying so.”

Hearing this, Yin Henzi laughed suddenly: “Then, you’ve fallen into my trap!”

With his words, he suddenly unleashed his True Qi onto the Tower-shaped Emperor Artifact, then forcefully shouted: “Seal!”

Instantly, the Tower-shaped Emperor Artifact resisting the Blood Devouring Dragon Pearl transformed into a huge tower shape, firmly surrounding the Blood Devouring Dragon Pearl.

The intent was clear: not to let Sikong Jing retrieve the Blood Devouring Dragon Pearl.

Sikong Jing’s face indeed changed dramatically. He immediately shouted, “Yin Henzi, are you underestimating my Emperor’s Artifact? In the Blood Charm Demon Cat’s lair, I’ve already proven that my artifact is much stronger than Yin Shi’s Tower-shaped Emperor Artifact.”

With that, Sikong Jing forcefully commanded the Blood Devouring Dragon Pearl, “Ten Dragon Formation, Dragon Pearl Return!”

Instantly, ten Demon Dragons roared out from around the Blood Devouring Dragon Pearl, trying to push away the Tower-shaped Emperor Artifact.

But at that moment, Sikong Jing’s face changed again, somewhat panicked, “What’s happening? Why can’t it break through? Clearly, my artifact’s grade is much stronger.”

“Ha, hahahaha…”

The next moment, Yin Henzi burst into triumphant laughter and began stepping toward Sikong Jing.

“East Dominator Kid, I told you, you’ve been tricked.”

“You fell for my ‘lure the tiger from the mountain’ plan, although it wasn’t a tiger I lured away, but your Emperor’s Artifact.”

The implication was clear: the purpose of unleashing the Tower-shaped Emperor Artifact was to draw out the Blood Devouring Dragon Pearl from Sikong Jing, so it could be sealed.

“Even if you could match me in everything else, you must admit you’re far inferior to me in knowledge.”

“An Emperor’s Artifact can be burned.”

“The moment it’s burned, its grade can be elevated…”

“Of course, the Emperor’s Artifact will also be destroyed, but a mere Lower Grade Emperor Artifact, let it be destroyed.”

The Tower-shaped Emperor Artifact belonged to Yin Shi. Even if it didn’t, to someone of Yin Henzi’s stature, it was something he could discard at will.

Especially when it could be exchanged for the chance to kill Sikong Jing and absorb the Blood Charm Demon Cat; it was well worth it.

Hearing this, Sikong Jing continued to widen his eyes, persistently trying to retrieve the Blood Devouring Dragon Pearl, but unable to break through the Tower-shaped Emperor Artifact.

After several attempts, Sikong Jing couldn’t help but ask repeatedly, “Are you saying you’d rather destroy the Emperor’s Artifact than let me get the artifact’s power boost to kill me?”

At this point, Sikong Jing’s face actually showed some ferocity.

“Of course, killing you means I can get your Blood Pearl Emperor Device, right?”

Yin Henzi sinisterly laughed: “Ha ha, so you finally admit you relied on the artifact’s bonus? Earlier, you kept talking about discarding the artifacts together. Now, let me show you what happens when you toy with me.”

In Yin Henzi’s view, Sikong Jing must be anxious now.

Because his Emperor’s Artifact had been blocked, because he now had no Emperor’s Artifact power bonus, he had become a plain old Martial Battle Realm fighter. How could he not be anxious?

As for what was said about discarding artifacts together, Yin Henzi considered it Sikong Jing’s jests.

“You deliberately used various words to provoke me, but you’re too young.”

“If I were you, when I threw out the Tower-shaped Emperor Artifact, I should have evaded first and kept your own artifact very close, as that’s the core reason you managed to fight with me until now.”

“Now, you’re finished.”

After this, Yin Henzi stopped talking and charged toward Sikong Jing, laughing loudly.

However, just as Yin Henzi approached, a war hammer suddenly appeared in Sikong Jing’s hand. The ferocity and panic on his face vanished, replaced by coolness and killing intent.

Had Sikong Jing truly fallen into a trap?

Of course not; he had merely played along with the scheme because he didn’t need the artifact bonus.
