King of Gods-Novel2

Chapter 1397: Struggle

“It really worked!” Zhao Feng was elated.

He was just making an attempt, not expecting it to actually succeed.

One had to realize that Yu Heng still had the defense of the Ancient Race energy around him, and something in his mouth could essentially be considered a part of his body. Even without the space-sealing array, Zhao Feng would have found it very difficult to remove that liquid from Yu Heng’s mouth using Spatial Shift. The power of the Ancient Race could even easily shatter the Time energy of the Light Race, let alone Zhao Feng’s Spatial Shift.

But the God Eye Illusory Oblivion had succeeded in entering Yu Heng’s body and obliterating that liquid.

“Eh? What’s going on?”

Everyone stared at Yu Heng. They expected Yu Heng to be laughing out loud as he unleashed his tremendous Ancient Race energy, but at this moment, he had a look of shocked anger.

“Yu Heng, what’s wrong?” Ancient God Ice Jade and Ancient God Jailsea looked in alarm at Yu Heng. They were expecting Yu Heng to explode with power after taking the medicine, but there was nothing from Yu Heng.

“Zhao Feng!” Yu Heng suddenly turned to Zhao Feng, his eyes spewing flame.

Everyone had been preparing to flee just now, with only Zhao Feng focusing his left eye on his body and using that mysterious eye-bloodline technique. At the start, he had not paid this much attention; he never would’ve expected that Zhao Feng’s eye-bloodline technique would be able to break through his defenses and make that medicine he just took disappear without him noticing.

“This can’t be....” Yu Heng’s expression was rather agitated.

Zhao Feng had earlier neutralized the lethal attack he spent so much time accumulating energy for, and now, he had even made his medicine disappear. Moreover, that was his final tube of medicine.

Plush!

When he thought of this, Yu Heng immediately vomited blood. Not since he began cultivating had he ever suffered such a loss at the hands of an outsider.

“That kid did it?” Twilight Valley couldn’t help but glance at Zhao Feng. He had sensed a powerful ancient energy and a pulse of Eye Intent from Zhao Feng’s left eye a moment ago.

“Good job!” Xin Wuheng faintly smiled.

“Zhao Feng, I’ll tear your corpse to pieces!” Yu Heng suddenly roared, and he charged at Zhao Feng with a tinge of madness on his face.

Zhao Feng had time and time again upset his plans. Yu Heng put aside the Ancestral Artifact fragment and was now focused on killing Zhao Feng.

“Hurry and stop him!” Twilight Valley immediately yelled, and then he charged out with Xin Wuheng.

Zhao Feng was a major contributor to this battle, his bizarre eye-bloodline techniques carrying the day time and time again. He could not be allowed to be killed.

“Time Slash!” Twilight Valley waved the Ancestral Artifact fragment, creating a long and thin blade of crystalline white light in the air.

But when this blade of crystalline white light formed, there was a hint of instability.

“It seems like I’ve really gotten old.” Twilight Valley’s body of flowing white light was slightly pale, and there was a trickle of blood flowing down the corner of his lips.

He had only recently been revived, and his body was already burdened with heavy injuries. His battles with Yu Heng only added to his injuries and had left him incredibly exhausted.

Thwish!

Twilight Valley sent the blade of flowing light slashing at Yu Heng.

Xin Wuheng’s attack arrived at the same moment A gigantic palm made of five energy vortices rumbled through the air, destroying everything in its path.

“Scram!” Yu Heng roared, unleashing a frenzied burst of Ancient Race energy.

The heavens darkened and the earth rumbled.

Boom! Bang! Crash!

Twilight Valley’s Time Slash and Xin Wuheng’s Five Elements Law-Shattering Palm were both crushed by this tyrannical energy.

Yu Heng, his eyes bloodshot, charged at Zhao Feng.

“What’s going on? He seems to have gotten even stronger!” Fear could be seen in Ancient God Resplendence’s eyes.

“His mind is unclear, and he can’t control the Ancient Race energy!” Twilight Valley stared at Yu Heng and concluded.

“This should be a side effect of the bloodline, coupled with Zhao Feng’s provocations,” Xin Wuheng analyzed.

Every time one used the Ancient Race energy, one would experience immense side effects afterward. Yu Heng had used the Ancient Race energy twice, taking medicine to extract more energy and increase the time he could maintain the bloodline. This caused him to experience the side effects even while the bloodline energy still remained. And Zhao Feng’s provocations had caused even Yu Heng’s mental state to be affected.

“Zhao Feng, die!” Yu Heng’s eyes were bloodshot, and gold-silver blood was also beginning to seep out of his massive body. That tyrannical Ancient Race energy was constantly leaking out, wreaking havoc throughout the world.

Thwish!

Zhao Feng fled through the world, quickly leaving Yu Heng behind.

“His bloodline energy is fading!” Zhao Feng used the God’s Spiritual Eye to observe Yu Heng.

Behind Yu Heng, Twilight Valley and Xin Wuheng were in dogged pursuit, constantly launching attacks. This was to slow Yu Heng down and also to expend Yu Heng’s bloodline energy.

“Not good! Yu Heng’s situation is getting worse!” Ancient God Jailsea called out.

“The only thing we can do is try and stop Zhao Feng,” Ancient God Ice Jade said after some thought

If they could hold down Zhao Feng, Yu Heng would be able to easily kill him. This would allow him to regain his sanity and give them a little hope.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

The two half-step God Lords of Ancient Soul Hall approached from another direction. Once they got in front of Zhao Feng, they began to try and stop him.

“Frigid Ice Mountain!”

“Darkwater Jail Dragon!”

The two of them used powerful combat skills, sending a giant dragon and a massive mountain of ice at Zhao Feng.

“Scram!” Zhao Feng roared as he gathered his Chaos Origin Divine Power, unleashing fist after fist made up of dark silver energy.

Ancient God Cheng Yun and the little thieving cat also assisted him in fending off these attacks.

Boom! Bang! Crash!

The collision of these attacks caused the heavens to shake.

“This kid has enough strength now to contend against me!?” Ancient God Jailsea stared at Zhao Feng, a nasty expression on his face and revulsion in his heart.

Back then, Zhao Feng and Xin Wuheng working together needed to use their trump cards to defeat him, but now, Zhao Feng could now display power comparable to a half-step God Lord alone.

“Kill!” At this moment, Yu Heng came up from behind. However, his bloodline energy was much weaker than it was before.

“Tribulation Lightning Eye Flame!” Zhao Feng aimed at Yu Heng’s head and fired off a Tribulation Lightning flame from his left eye.

Kacrack!

Countless bolts of lightning immediately exploded against Yu Heng’s head.

At the same time, Twilight Valley slashed at Yu Heng’s head with a blade of white crystal.

“Giant God Finger!” Xin Wuheng circulated his bloodline energy, Divine Power, and his understanding of Law, and thrust out with his finger.

For a moment, Yu Heng’s body was completely engulfed by these attacks.

But Yu Heng still had his Ancient God-Devil Body. This perfect physical body prevented ninety percent of the damage done to Yu Heng. action

When the explosions scattered, Yu Heng charged out, but his target was not Zhao Feng.

“Retreat!” Yu Heng called out to Ancient God Ice Jade and Ancient God Jailsea.

That barrage of attacks had caused Yu Heng to regain his sanity. His Ancient Race energy was gradually weakening, and in a direct battle, he no longer had a chance of victory.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The two half-step God Lords of Ancient Soul Hall naturally understood that the situation was not good, so they retreated together with Yu Heng.

“After them!” Zhao Feng called out as he took off in pursuit.

Although Yu Heng had regained his sanity, the Ancient Race energy was continuing to rapidly fade away.

“The two of you, watch my back while I get in touch with my master!” Yu Heng said as he fled.

Once his Ancient Race energy completely ran out, they would probably all die here.

“Okay!” Looks of joy appeared on the faces of Ancient God Ice Jade and Ancient God Jailsea.

The Ancestral Legacy Treasury was too far away from Ancient Soul Hall’s base. Ordinary methods of communication could never work. However, it seemed Yu Heng had a way to get in touch with his master.

Yu Heng’s master was God Lord Stellar Aspect, also a member of the Heaven’s Legacy Race and a person of many abilities. As long as Yu Heng could get in touch with this person, they still had some hope.

Swish!

Yu Heng waved his hand, and a black figure appeared. This figure was rather large, and its body was made entirely of metal. It exuded the energy of a half-step God Lord.

“Is that an automaton?” Ancient God Jailsea’s eyes brightened.

Automatons normally didn’t have any vitality and were controlled by another, but this black figure possessed an intense vitality.

“That is... a Death God Guard of the Heaven’s Legacy Race!” Twilight Valley’s expression darkened.

No one else could compare to the Heaven’s Legacy Race when it came to automaton technology, but automatons also had many flaws. For example, the high-power automatons were expensive to build and were not very quick-witted, making them weaker than experts of the same level.

However, the Death God Guards produced by the Heaven’s Legacy Race were a fusion of life and machinery, bestowing the advantages of both and making them incredibly strong.

“Stop them!” Yu Heng ordered, and then he took out a silver jade token.

Swoosh swoosh!

His fingers began to move across it, carving strange words onto its surface.

“Not good! That’s a special communication method used by the Heaven’s Legacy Race! He must be trying to get in touch with other members of the Heaven’s Legacy Race!” Twilight Valley grimaced at this sight

One Yu Heng was hard enough to deal with. If even more Heaven’s Legacy Race members arrived, he didn’t dare to imagine the consequences.

A group of people stood in an independent dimension. In front of them were two complex Heaven’s Legacy arrays.

“God Lord Stellar Aspect, my Ancient Soul Hall only has Ancient God Ice Jade and Ancient God Jailsea left!” God Lord Gloomheaven said in agitation.

At this point, Ancient Soul Hall had lost three peak Rank Eights, three Rank Nines, and one half-step God Lord.

“Yu Heng, just what are you doing? Why haven’t you contacted your master!?” God Lord Stellar Aspect’s expression was grim.

Yu Heng was his disciple, so he was naturally aware of his abilities. Logically speaking, Yu Heng should be unrivaled in that dimension, so how could they have sustained such heavy losses?

“Damn, this Destiny energy...!” God Lord Stellar Aspect was suffering from the effects of Destiny energy, so he could not determine Yu Heng’s current condition.

“I will now begin preparing to activate the teleportation array again. This time, this old man will personally go!” God Lord Stellar Aspect’s expression was exceptionally grave as he went up to the teleportation array and began to repair it.

All the members of Ancient Soul Hall present were stunned.

“This... if you need anything, you only need to ask!” God Lord Gloomheaven’s expression slightly relaxed.

All of them knew just how many resources were needed to activate this array. And this time, they were sending over a God Lord, making the price even more terrifying.
