The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1996: Chapter 1996: Slaying He Ming

He Ming understands his own situation the most; he knows he’s about to meet his end.

Faced with Jing Yan, he can’t block or escape. Eventually, he had to give up maintaining the Yitian Poison Scripture Secret Technique, but even so, it only delayed the inevitable by a moment.

”Du Ya Ancestor!”

”Du Ya Ancestor, save me!” He Ming called out to Du Ya Ancestor for help.

To fight Jing Yan and ultimately plead for help as a Title Controller is certainly shameful. But at this moment, face doesn’t matter; survival comes first. He, He Ming, does not want to die.

”He Ming Palace Master, I only agreed to stop Ma Yi, not to help you deal with Jing Yan,” Du Ya Ancestor said to He Ming from a distance.

”Du Ya Ancestor, but you owe me a favor, you... I need you to repay it now!” He Ming sounded like a drowning man desperately grabbing at anything he could.

In fact, the favor that Du Ya Ancestor owed him had already been repaid. If not for Du Ya Ancestor’s presence, how could Ma Yi Ancestor be restrained from acting? Restraining Ma Yi Ancestor was how Du Ya Ancestor had repaid him.

Upon hearing He Ming’s words, Du Ya Ancestor smiled and didn’t bother to say more. He would not help He Ming against Jing Yan.

He Ming was in despair!

”Die!” Jing Yan once again stabbed fiercely with his sword.

”Pfft!” The tip of the Ice Flame Sword could be seen piercing into He Ming’s body.

The immense power surged out along the blade, instantly destroying He Ming’s life force. He Ming’s eyes gradually dimmed.

”Jing Yan!”

”Heh heh...” At the end of his life force, He Ming unexpectedly laughed.

”I never imagined, could not have imagined! I, He Ming, since the creation of the Void Divine Hall, have roamed the Chaos, rarely meeting worthy adversaries. In Chaos, those who could threaten me could be counted on one hand. And today, I’ve died at your hand, at the hands of this young man who’s only been cultivating for a few million years.” He Ming grinned.

”I truly regret!”

”I regret not going to Shelun Country to personally kill you from the very start!” He Ming’s expression turned hideous once more.

Back when Jing Yan killed the Void Son Die Dong in Shelun Country, He Ming was aware of Jing Yan’s existence. However, he did not take it seriously at that time and only let his underlings handle the matter. Ultimately, Jing Yan was brought to Hongjun Heavenly Palace by the Nuwa Palace Master, making it even more difficult for the Void Divine Hall to kill Jing Yan.

Frankly, if back when Jing Yan first entered the Endless Chaos and reached Shelun Country, He Ming had personally gone there, he probably could have killed Jing Yan. Chenyuan Emperor wouldn’t have been able to stop him, especially since He Ming had the Yitian Poison Scripture as a hidden weapon.

He Ming indeed regretted it, but it was too late.

After exhaling a breath, He Ming’s life force completely dissipated. It was only then that Jing Yan withdrew the Ice Flame Sword.

Jing Yan looked deeply at He Ming’s corpse without any mercy, then collected the treasures He Ming left behind.

”Little Green, are you alright?” Jing Yan communicated with Little Green.

”Master, I’m alright, you don’t need to worry.” Little Green’s aura was somewhat weak, but it seemingly wasn’t a significant issue.

”He Ming is dead!”

”Hahaha, Void Divine Hall Master He Ming was killed by Senior Brother Jing Yan!”

”Wonderful, Senior Brother Jing Yan is mighty!” The members of Hongjun Heavenly Palace cheered.

The Nuwa Palace Master and other Controllers of Hongjun Heavenly Palace were all greatly invigorated, with smiles on everyone’s faces. With He Ming’s death, the Void Divine Hall was finished.

”He did it,” Ma Yi Ancestor said softly.

”For such a Title Controller like He Ming to actually be killed by him!” Du Ya Ancestor followed up.

Luoshui Divine Palace trembled!

Boundaryless Spirit Mountain trembled!

Wansheng Valley trembled!

The experts of these Ultimate Forces all had incredulous expressions on their faces. That was the Void Divine Hall Master, a Title Controller, Chaos Giant He Ming! Yet he was killed just like that.

When He Ming led numerous experts from the Void Divine Hall to the Ultimate Land to attack Hongjun Heavenly Palace, what was everyone thinking at the time? Everyone thought that Hongjun Heavenly Palace was doomed, about to be completely destroyed by the Void Divine Hall, becoming dust in the history of Chaos. But now, the Void Divine Hall Master He Ming was dead, and most of the Controllers from Void Divine Hall were also dead. It can be said that the Void Divine Hall was finished; even if the remaining few Pavilion Masters of Void Divine Hall managed to escape, they couldn’t continue to uphold the Void Divine Hall. Moreover, Hongjun Heavenly Palace certainly would not easily let off those remnants of the Void Divine Hall’s power.

The other two beings from Chaos Countries fighting with Chenyuan Emperor and strong people from Shelun Country were also flustered.

This time, they followed He Ming here just to get a share of the spoils. They originally thought that this time the Void Divine Hall was foolproof, but the result turned out like this. Such a result, they simply could not bear.

These two beings from Chaos Countries were already thinking about how to escape. But just as they were planning their escape, Jing Yan had already darted over.

With such opportunistic scavengers, Jing Yan naturally would not let them go.

”Die!” Jing Yan didn’t bother with words, attacking right after getting close with the Ice Flame Sword.

There were more than ten Controllers from those two Chaos Countries altogether, with two Kings among them, both at the level of Chenyuan Emperor as Controllers. But their strength was, at most, enough to withstand a regular Title Controller’s attack for a while. Against Jing Yan’s assault, they couldn’t hold up.

”Boom!”

After a sweeping sword strike, one of the Controllers from those two Chaos Countries was killed directly, and another was severely injured.

”Go!” The two Kings shouted, then desperately fled.

One of them even wanted to tear through the Chaos and create a wormhole, but Jing Yan certainly wasn’t going to give them that chance.

”Gravity Magic!”

”Divine Soul Wind Blade!”

After deploying two techniques in quick succession, forget about creating a wormhole, they couldn’t even maintain a normal tenth of their flying speed.

”Swish! Swish! Swish!” Jing Yan attacked continuously.

Jing Yan specifically targeted those two most powerful Kings, and after several sword lights obliterated them, one King was killed, the other was not far from death. Among those two countries’ Controllers, a few were loyal, actively attacking Jing Yan. The remaining few disregarded their Kings and scattered to escape.

But Chenyuan Emperor and Ancient Vine Elder were no pushovers; suppressed for so long, they were ready to retaliate.

In about less than a third of a tea’s time, the beings from the two Chaos Countries were all killed, not one managed to escape.

At this point, the war was temporarily over.

”Jing Yan!” Vice Palace Master Quin approached Jing Yan.

”Vice Palace Master!” Jing Yan nodded.

”Jing Yan, this time... If it weren’t for your timely return, Hongjun Heavenly Palace surely couldn’t have stopped He Ming and the others!” Vice Palace Master Quin looked at Jing Yan.

Though the war was temporarily over, thinking back to Jing Yan’s displayed strength still felt surreal to Quin.
