Eternal Sacred King

Chapter 1693: Puppets

The moment the Hidden Emperor was exposed, Di Yu realized that the latter was most likely doomed.

The Hidden Emperor’s methods relied on his surprise attacks.

The combination of his two supreme divine powers, Myriad Transformations and Deceive the World, could allow him to cheat the world and kill without a trace!

However, once the Hidden Emperor was exposed, he could not defend against Desolate Martial’s power at all!

Even Di Yu who had comprehended three supreme divine powers could not defend against the current Desolate Martial, let alone the Hidden Emperor!

A peak Grade 8 Creation Green Lotus was even more terrifying than the primordial races!

Without hesitation, Di Yu made a prompt decision to abandon the Hidden Emperor and turn to flee!

By the time Su Zimo killed the Hidden Emperor, Di Yu had already escaped from the forest.

Su Zimo sneered and released his massive spirit consciousness. Before long, he locked onto Di Yu’s location and chased after the latter.

Under normal circumstances, the range of an Emperor’s spirit consciousness could extend hundreds of thousands of kilometers.

However, Su Zimo’s spirit consciousness could extend a million kilometers away!

With a single thought of his spirit consciousness, he could sense the activity in almost half of the ancient battlefield!

Emperors were already the peak of Tianhuang Mainland.

At this point of his cultivation, Su Zimo truly felt the power to control Heaven and Earth, as though he could look down on all living beings!

Su Zimo chased after Di Yu and advanced.

He could sense with his spirit consciousness that Di Yu had suddenly stopped.

Before long, Su Zimo caught up to him.

There was someone standing in front of Di Yu, blocking his path.

However, that person did not exist within Su Zimo’s spirit consciousness coverage!

Monk Daming!

From the looks of it, Di Yu seemed to have just fought Monk Daming and suffered a huge loss. His face was pale and his breath carried the smell of blood.

“Just who are you?!”

Di Yu glared at Monk Daming who was not far away and said hatefully, “Why did you help Desolate Martial and stand in my way?!”

“I’m not helping him. I want to kill you too,”

Monk Daming replied indifferently.

“I don’t know you. There’s no feud between us!”

Di Yu grit his teeth.

Monk Daming looked at Di Yu with a fake smile and suddenly asked, “Why? Are you secretly channeling the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra?”

“Mmm?”

Di Yu’s expression changed slightly.

He could not understand how the other party could sense it the moment he started channeling the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra.

At that moment, he did not have time to think and released the secret skill of the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra!

“Blood Tribute!”

Di Yu roared and an extremely evil and strange power descended on Monk Daming and Su Zimo!

Su Zimo furrowed his brows slightly.

His bloodline was actually restless and almost evaporated into nothingness by that strange power!

He had seen this secret skill in the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra before. When released, the Blood Tribute secret skill could refine the bloodline of other living beings remotely and turn it into his own essence energy. It was extremely domineering and terrifying!

The strange thing was that although Su Zimo did not control it intentionally, his bloodline stabilized after the slightest disturbance.

Monk Daming on the other end had a calm expression as well.

Di Yu’s Blood Tribute had no effect on the two of them at all!

“How could this be…”

Di Yu was shocked and his eyes widened in disbelief.

He could understand if Su Zimo and Monk Daming released any divine powers or secret skills to defend against his Blood Tribute.

However, that was not the case at all!

His Blood Tribute was completely useless against the bloodlines of Su Zimo and Monk Daming!

“Blood Tribute!”

Right then, Monk Daming suddenly extended his palm and channeled the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra as well, gripping Di Yu gently through the void.

Poof!

A blood mist burst forth from Di Yu’s body instantly!

The Essence Blood exploded and transformed into a blood beam that flew towards Monk Daming.

Monk Daming opened his mouth and swallowed the blood light.

At that moment, Di Yu seemed to have aged considerably.

Monk Daming released the same secret skill and almost refined Di Yu’s Essence Blood entirely!

“So, it’s you!”

Di Yu looked at Monk Daming and smiled bitterly. “Hundreds of years ago, you were the one who stopped me from chasing after Desolate Martial!”

Monk Daming remained silent as a form of acknowledgment.

“Fufufufu!”

Di Yu laughed with a tragic expression. “So what if you kill me? You’re just a puppet that’s pulled by the strings. Your fate is also in the hands of others!”

“Amazing, truly amazing!”

Di Yu turned to look at Su Zimo. “Initially, I wondered how capable you were. So, that’s all! You’re just a puppet as well! Hahahaha!”

“This entire world is under his control!”

In a flash, Su Zimo arrived beside Di Yu and extended his palm, placing it on the top of the latter’s head to extract his Essence Spirit.

“Soul Searching Art!”

Su Zimo’s eyes lit up with a strange black glow.

A ball of light appeared in his palm and pitch-black chains grew on it, piercing into Di Yu’s Essence Spirit!

Di Yu’s memories flashed through Su Zimo’s mind one after another.

Ever since Di Yu started cultivating, there was no important information from the Qi Condensation, Foundation Establishment and even the Conjoint Body realm—everything was normal.

However, Di Yu’s cultivation could not advance after he became a Half-Martial Ancestor.

Later on, his lifespan decreased and he was already in his twilight years with almost no chance of becoming a Patriarch!

One day, Di Yu met someone.

Su Zimo could not make out the person’s appearance.

When he focused his mind and wanted to see the person clearly, the person suddenly turned around and looked at him. It was a strange blood face that smiled at him sinisterly!

Boom!

Su Zimo shuddered as though he was struck by lightning and jolted awake from the Soul Searching Art.

He looked down.

Di Yu’s Essence Spirit was already destroyed.

He still could not see the person’s face clearly.

Unknowingly, Su Zimo had already broken out in cold sweat!

Di Yu’s final words were similar to Heavenly Secrets’s final words.

That made Su Zimo want to check out the secret behind it!

Unfortunately, it was all for naught.

“You failed, right?”

Monk Daming was not far away and asked Su Zimo softly, as though he was not surprised by the outcome.

Su Zimo nodded.

“Everything is about to end,”

Monk Daming looked into the distance and murmured softly with a conflicted expression, as though he was disappointed, relieved, expectant and guilty.

Just as Su Zimo was about to ask, Monk Daming suddenly said, “Right, there’s something else I have to remind you.”

“What?”

Su Zimo asked.

Monk Daming said, “There’s a monster incarnate in Tianhuang Mainland with a mysterious background and unknown background. However, his combat strength is extremely terrifying! Even I wasn’t his match at the Half-Martial Ancestor realm!”

“Oh?”

Su Zimo pretended to be surprised.

Naturally, he knew that Monk Daming was referring to the Martial Dao Prime Body!

Monk Daming raised his head and looked at Su Zimo before nodding slightly. He turned and left before long.

Su Zimo stood in silence.

Although the current Tianhuang Mainland was relatively peaceful with the ten thousand races coexisting, Di Yu’s death today gave Su Zimo another sense of pressure!

A storm was brewing!

After pondering for a moment, Su Zimo turned to leave as well, prepared to enter seclusion once more to comprehend more supreme divine powers.
