The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2247: Chapter 2247: Death Sky Trace

The three conditions proposed by Mans, none of which Jing Yan could possibly agree to.

The Netherworld Heart was of great help to Jing Yan’s own cultivation, whether it be advancement in realms or mastering various techniques, all could be rapidly enhanced by the Netherworld Heart.

As for allowing someone to investigate the Divine Soul Body, that was even more impossible. Even if Mans swore not to harm his Divine Soul Body, Jing Yan would never take that risk.

The third condition posed by Mans was what truly angered Jing Yan: From now on, he must not see Wuxia Immortal Venerable or contact Wuxia Immortal Venerable. Who did Mans think he was?

The chill in Jing Yan’s heart had reached an extreme, with a murderous intent surging. In Jing Yan’s eyes, Mans was not just an enemy trying to seize his resources, this person also wanted him to lose Wuxia Immortal Venerable.

When Jing Yan uttered the words telling Mans Immortal Venerable to get lost, there was a gasp of shock from the distant crowd of spectators.

Arrogant!

Tyrannical!

This Jing Yan was simply so audacious it left people speechless.

In truth, even Yuantong Immortal Venerable wouldn’t dare to tell Mans Immortal Venerable to get lost. Perhaps Mans Immortal Venerable alone might not be able to defeat Yuantong Immortal Venerable, but Mans Immortal Venerable was one of the Twelve Saints of the Slaughter God Hall. Although Yuantong Immortal Venerable was related to Wu Guo Heavenly Lord, this relationship was not reliable. Even if Yuantong Immortal Venerable pleaded for Wu Guo Heavenly Lord’s assistance, Wu Guo Heavenly Lord might not take action. However, Mans Immortal Venerable from the Slaughter God Hall could easily enlist the help of other Immortal Venerable cultivators from the Slaughter God Hall.

So, even Yuantong Immortal Venerable, upon hearing Jing Yan’s words, held his breath.

“It’s over!” sighed Yuantong Immortal Venerable.

There is no doubt that Jing Yan’s words would eternally offend Mans Immortal Venerable.

If before, Jing Yan still had a sliver of hope for survival, now that hope was completely gone.

Previously, if Wuxia Immortal Venerable intervened to stop Mans Immortal Venerable, it’s possible that Mans Immortal Venerable wouldn’t go all out, allowing Jing Yan a chance to escape. But now, in the rage of Mans Immortal Venerable, even Wuxia Immortal Venerable wouldn’t be able to stop him. If Wuxia Immortal Venerable persisted, it was very possible that Mans Immortal Venerable would heavily injure Wuxia Immortal Venerable first.

“I must quickly notify Wu Guo Heavenly Lord.” Yuantong Immortal Venerable’s figure flickered to a secluded place and took out his communication magical treasure.

If Wu Guo Heavenly Lord is willing to help and arrives in time, then perhaps Jing Yan still has a glimmer of hope for survival. But Yuantong Immortal Venerable lacked any certainty that Wu Guo Heavenly Lord would be willing to help.

“This Jing Yan is doomed.”

“To dare to tell Mans Immortal Venerable to get lost, and in front of us no less. Mans Immortal Venerable can’t not kill him now.”

“Exactly, if Mans Immortal Venerable doesn’t kill Jing Yan, how could he maintain his reputation in Faro Heaven in the future?”

“This Jing Yan, seriously, people don’t even know what to say about him. He seems so young yet can master the complete Great Demon Seal Suppression Technique. Such talent is rare to find in all of Faro Heaven, one could say his future is boundless! Once he steps into the Immortal Venerable realm with enough strength, he would definitely be a top-tier Immortal Venerable. But he… is seeking death on his own!”

“…” The spectators all stared blankly at Jing Yan.

“Elder Kuo Lian!” Wuxia Immortal Venerable anxiously looked at Elder Kuo Lian.

Kuo Lian, an elder of the Mystic Moon Trading House, an equally terrifying power, though not as profound as the Slaughter God Hall, also had multiple Immortal Venerable-level experts.

“Wuxia Immortal Venerable?” Elder Kuo Lian responded via sound transmission.

“Elder Kuo Lian, is there any way you can… help Jing Yan?” Wuxia Immortal Venerable was grasping at straws.

She knew that Kuo Lian was unlikely to stick his neck out for Jing Yan. The Mystic Moon Trading House dared not provoke the Slaughter God Hall. The Slaughter God Hall was rumored to be founded by an Immortal Emperor; how could the Mystic Moon Trading House dare to lightly offend the Slaughter God Hall? Moreover, even without the Immortal Emperor factor, Kuo Lian was unlikely to assist Jing Yan.

“Wuxia Immortal Venerable, I’m terribly sorry, I cannot be of any help in this matter.” This was how Kuo Lian communicated through sound transmission.

Of course, Kuo Lian wouldn’t risk helping Jing Yan; Jing Yan’s death had nothing to do with him or the Mystic Moon Trading House. The Mystic Moon Trading House was wary of the Thunder Emperor potentially backing Jing Yan but chose not to provoke them. To risk offending the Slaughter God Hall for Jing Yan? That was out of the question.

Wuxia Immortal Venerable’s face darkened, she felt a sense of despair.

…

“You damned brat! Today, I will tear you to pieces!” As expected, Mans Immortal Venerable went straight berserk.

His eyes turned blood-red as he glared fiercely at Jing Yan, roaring.

Around his body, boundless Demonic Qi was unleashed. This Demonic Qi carried astounding corrosive power that even the Heaven and Earth Daoist Law couldn’t withstand. Various Laws were all eroded and transformed into laws of death by the Demonic Qi.

The black chains in Mans Immortal Venerable’s hand also emanated waves of immense Power. The chains barely trembled in space, yet nearby space was annihilated. Not only was the nearby space annihilated, but a black chasm also appeared in the more distant space.

“I want you dead!” Mans Immortal Venerable was mad with rage.

He charged forward at great speed, swinging the black chains fiercely toward Jing Yan.

“Old bastard, don’t be arrogant!” Jing Yan saw Mans Immortal Venerable charging and shouted loudly.

His entire body surged with Divine Power, the sword light of the Ice Flame Sword dazzling. The vast sword light formed a dazzling Sword Screen vortex. Within the vortex, seven small suns rotated at high speed. The scorching energy waves stirred tumultuous ripples, spreading in circles.

The Sword Screen vortex suddenly moved to envelop the black chains.

“Death Sky Trace!” Mans Immortal Venerable roared in anger.

Death Sky Trace was an Immortal Venerable Level Technique, yet its Power was far more dreadful than the Ten Directions Slaughter God Technique. This Spell was Mans Immortal Venerable’s most powerful method. Even for Mans Immortal Venerable, casting Death Sky Trace was no easy feat. Under normal circumstances, he seldom used Death Sky Trace.

It was akin to how the Black River Heavenly Monarch using Death Lotus required inner exhaustion. While Mans Immortal Venerable’s casting of Death Sky Trace was not as taxing as the Black River Heavenly Monarch’s casting of Death Lotus, maintaining the Power of Death Sky Trace for long also demanded a certain price.

The more monstrous the Power of a Spell, the harsher the conditions for casting it. Some special Immortal Venerable-level Techniques could be classified as Forbidden Techniques. Such Spells wield terrifying Power, immense difficulty in cultivation, and upon display exceed even Immortal Venerable Level Techniques in Power.

Death Mark and Death Lotus could both be described as Forbidden Techniques.

They are called Forbidden Techniques because they are not truly Forbidden Techniques.

Truly Forbidden Techniques, when executed, possess Power comparably to many Immortal Techniques. Within the Nine Days of Immortal Domain, cultivators who have mastered Forbidden Techniques are incredibly rare.
