Fate-Defying Demon Emperor

Chapter 480: Chapter 480: Divination King, I’m Determined to Kill You

”Useless trash!”

Seeing that the Blood Master had failed to stop Su Han, the Divination King’s brow furrowed slightly, his expression sour.

But he was not in a hurry, for he had the means to deal with the situation. At this moment, only the last few lines of the Heavenly Evolving Saint Rune remained to be filled, after which everything would be under his control.

WHOOSH! A light barrier containing the power of space-time appeared before Su Han, rendering all his attacks futile. The Divination King was right in front of him, yet it felt as though he were unreachable, as far as the ends of the earth. This was the obstructive power of space-time. Unless Su Han reached the Saint Realm and mastered the power of time, he could not break through it.

Behind him, the Blood Master had come to his senses and was furiously chasing him as a sea of blood rolled in to obscure the sky.

Faced with this situation, Su Han was already mentally prepared. He unleashed his Origin Technique, Shape-Shifting Shadow, and immediately swapped places with the Divination King.

When the Blood Master saw the person before him change into the Divination King, he was instantly startled. He quickly withdrew his attack but suffered from the backlash. Blood spilled from the corner of his mouth as he sustained a light injury.

”What kind of technique is this?”

Amazed, the Divination King looked at Su Han, who had taken his place. He was standing where the king himself had just been, and the space-time barrier remained intact.

Su Han ignored the Divination King, his Divine Sense extending outward to quickly decipher the Holy Rune Great Formation. In terms of Formation Mastery, even Master Gong Ming was his inferior. Although the Great Diviner Saint was powerful, he could not compare to the Divine Level Formation memories that Su Han possessed. However, the Heavenly Evolving Saint Rune was of an extremely high grade, not just an ordinary Formation Pattern, as it was imbued with the power of space-time. With Su Han’s current strength, he could not destroy it, only disrupt it. Formation Patterns emerged from Su Han’s hands, quickly interweaving to seal off the final gap. But these were Su Han’s Formation Patterns, not the Divination King’s Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes.

”You’re actually an Array Master too!”

The Divination King was once again taken aback. The intelligence on Su Han only indicated that he possessed extraordinary innate talent and formidable strength—a monstrous prodigy—but it never mentioned that he was an Array Master. This was a serious oversight. Now that the gap had been filled by Su Han’s Formation Patterns, it was like a nail had been hammered into the array, preventing the Holy Rune Great Formation from unleashing its true might.

The Divination King’s face turned ugly. With a wave of his hand, the space-time barrier vanished, leaving no barrier between him and Su Han.

”Blood Master, I don’t care how you do it, you must execute him for me quickly! If you ruin this, you’ll wish for a death you can’t have!” The Divination King spoke coldly, his words a clear threat. Although he was not as powerful as the Blood Master, in terms of innate talent and status, the Blood Master dared not act recklessly before him.

”I was careless just now. That youngster has a strong Physical Body, but his own power is insufficient. Rest assured, I will kill him!” Having been made a fool of, the Blood Master was now seething with rage and wished he could tear Su Han apart.

The Divination King nodded. His immediate priority was to break Su Han’s Formation Patterns and complete the Holy Rune Great Formation.

But how could Su Han give him that opportunity? He reached out and produced a palm-sized Octagonal Prism. The mirror-like object was completely translucent, as if crafted from crystal, yet it could reflect images and seemed capable of sealing off an entire space. It was utterly extraordinary. This artifact was none other than the Reincarnation Holy Mirror that Su Han had obtained from Gold Ingot. It was not just any treasure; it was an Intermediate Grade Holy Artifact, even more precious than the Nine Palace Golden Pagoda and the other Holy Artifacts in Su Han’s possession.

”Not good!” The Divination King’s face changed dramatically upon seeing the Reincarnation Holy Mirror. It was the treasure of the Seven Kills Saint, which he naturally recognized.

The Divination King quickly retreated, trying to evade the Reincarnation Holy Mirror’s power. However, Su Han was already prepared. He swiftly activated the Secret of the Soldier Character, engulfing the Divination King in Holy Light and pulling him directly into the mirror.

Soon, both Su Han and the Divination King appeared in an alternate dimension. They were surrounded by a dark void, standing on a Duel Arena under their feet. Su Han’s plan was clear: only the Divination King could set up the Heavenly Evolving Saint Rune. As long as he was killed, the Holy Rune Great Formation could not be completed. Furthermore, the Formation Patterns he had left behind were designed to disrupt and dismantle the array. The longer they remained, the more the Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes would be broken down until the entire Great Formation vanished completely. As for the Blood Master, although he was strong, he didn’t understand the Heavenly Evolving Saint Runes and couldn’t participate in the battle between Saints. Therefore, isolating him outside was the best choice.

”I hear you cultivate the Divination Technique,” Su Han said, staring coldly at the Divination King without concealing his killing intent. ”Did you predict this outcome?”

This accomplice must die today!

”Do you think pulling me into the Reincarnation Holy Mirror can stop any of this from happening? How ridiculous!” The Divination King sneered, showing no panic or fear. Instead, he was full of confidence.

Working together, the Swordsaint and Lan Yi the Female Saint could suppress Saint You Heng. The Holy Rune Great Formation was also nearing completion and would seal off much of space-time, making it highly unlikely that Saint You Heng could escape. Even without the Blood Master here, the Divination King did not fear Su Han.

”The Gold Ingot you killed was merely a rising star in my eyes. Do you know who the number one Slaughter Star was before him?” the Divination King inquired with interest, completely unintimidated by Su Han’s notorious reputation.

Since his debut, Su Han had killed countless enemies. Among them were Zi Qiong and Xuan Song, who were not only followers of the Tian Lou Saint but also prodigies on the Prodigy List. Furthermore, the other Demon Race prodigies and the Seven Great Slaughter Stars he later killed were all extraordinary.

But so what?

The Divination King was extremely confident in his own strength because he was the previous generation’s number one Slaughter Star. He had only withdrawn from the Prodigy List and relinquished the title after turning thirty. The Divination King was the favored disciple of the Great Diviner Saint and had once ranked among the top ten on the Prodigy List himself. Although he hadn’t yet broken through to the Supreme Realm, he was only a hair’s breadth away. His strength far surpassed that of Gold Ingot. Even on the current Prodigy List, his power would be comparable to the top five.

Therefore, despite being pulled into the Reincarnation Holy Mirror to face Su Han alone, he was fearless. In fact, he was brimming with a fierce killing intent.

Su Han’s brow furrowed. He clearly hadn’t expected the Divination King’s background to be so extraordinary. But even if he were the Son of Heaven himself, he had to die today. If the Divination King wasn’t killed, both he and Saint You Heng would be in mortal danger. Besides, the new and old grievances between them had to be settled.

”Nine Palace Golden Pagoda, suppress!”

Su Han wasted no more words and immediately made his move, intending to use the Holy Artifact to seize the initiative and gain an advantage.

WHOOSH! The Nine Palace Golden Pagoda expanded to fifty meters in size, glittering radiantly with intense Holy Might. Like a great mountain, it plummeted toward the Divination King. In that instant, the battle erupted
