Chapter 868: No One Can Escape

Thud!

The corpse of the Dugu Imperial Son fell from mid-air, crashing into the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Crimson blood turned into a pool, staining the ground, and coloring everyone’s eyes red.

The Dugu Imperial Son is dead?

Under the joint attack of three people, he was slain by Su Han right in front of everyone, with no chance to retaliate—this was simply unbelievable!

This was an Imperial Son meticulously cultivated by the Dugu Imperial Clan, ranked eighteenth on the Hidden Dragon List, and he was a prodigious talent in the Saint Realm First Layer.

At this moment, everything was over, the Dugu Imperial Son transformed into a cold corpse, lying in a pool of blood, life slipping away, surrounded by death qi, with no chance of survival.

His physical body had been slain, his divine sense extinguished by the Nine Heavens Divine Light, now completely dead. Even immortality medicine couldn’t bring him back to life.

At this moment, in his mouth, black demonic flames were still brewing, yet to unleash the strike of the Great Emperor—these were demonic flames from the Dugu Great Emperor meant to save him, but unfortunately, Su Han foresaw it and restrained him, gaining a brief opportunity to kill.

With Su Han’s current strength, defeating the Dugu Imperial Son head-on was not a problem, but the Great Emperor’s treasures were beyond his limits to withstand, as he had to succeed in killing before the treasure was activated, or risk endless troubles.

"The Dugu Imperial Son is actually dead!"

The pupils of the Heavenly Strategy Princess contracted, the freckles on her face seemed alive, filled with shock and fear, a chill ran from her feet straight up to her crown.

In terms of combat power, she was far inferior to the Dugu Imperial Son and the Chu Family Imperial Son, but now even the Dugu Imperial Son who activated his demon bloodline was killed—she probably wasn’t a match.

This place is not suitable for lingering!

The thought of escaping instantly arose in the mind of the Heavenly Strategy Princess. She was invited by the Dugu Imperial Son as support, but she had only taken money to deduce Su Han’s location, completing her task.

As for taking action now, it was only because Su Han was too formidable and had breached her protective light, hence she joined forces with the Dugu Imperial Son in battle.

She didn’t want to fight anymore—as now, there were only two left, herself and the Chu Family Imperial Son, and the situation was even more unfavorable. Continuing might put her life at risk.

She was an Emperor’s Daughter of the Bagua Imperial Palace, innately gifted, with a boundless future, how could she throw away her life for a mere task?

Escape!

As long as I flee from here, I’ll survive; I will never deduce Su Han for anyone again!

"Heaven Rank Intermediate Martial Technique: Bagua Emperor Step!"

The Heavenly Strategy Princess decided, swiftly retreating. She mastered a unique movement technique, created by a Great Emperor Realm expert, incredibly fast and elusive, hard to pursue.

Swoosh!

The Bagua seal emerged beneath the feet of the Heavenly Strategy Princess, carrying her swiftly away; her figure flickered, appearing a thousand meters away, flashing farther and farther, surpassing teleportation.

"Character Technique of Motion!"

Since Su Han struck, he would not spare any enemy; seeing the Heavenly Strategy Princess escape, he immediately used the Character Technique of Motion to chase after them.

The Character Technique of Motion was the fastest in existence, and after Su Han broke through to the Saint Realm, he gained a new understanding of it through mastering the power of time.

Now deploying the Character Technique of Motion, he exploded at double the speed of sound, piercing through the sky, as though walking within the river of time, incredibly fast.

"I must go too, this person is too strong, I’m definitely not a match, but the secrets he carries are too many—whether impersonating the Nineteenth Prince or being a pureblood demon, it’s enough to incite a pursuit from the world. As long as I spread this information, he will be hunted to death without me having to lift a finger!"

On the other side, the Chu Family Imperial Son also got the idea to escape; the death of the Dugu Imperial Son delivered him a warning. Although willing to avenge the Sword Maniac, it was only a swipe to his revenge—if it required risking his own life, it was far from worth it.

The dark gold spear returned to its original size, and instead of rising into the air, the Chu Family Imperial Son rapidly burrowed underground, aiming to escape through the earth.

"Origin Technique: Myriad Encompassing Heavenly Attraction!"

Just then, Su Han appeared, using the Origin Technique—a terrifying gravitational force acted upon the Chu Family Imperial Son, preventing him from burrowing underground.

"How is this possible? Weren’t you chasing the Heavenly Strategy Princess?"

Chu Family Imperial Son’s jaw dropped to the ground, he looked up to see the Heavenly Strategy Princess indeed fleeing, with a shadow pursuing after her.

But if that was Su Han, who then was the one before him?

Never would the Chu Family Imperial Son have thought that Su Han’s Divine Skills included Blossoming with One Thought, capable of creating a Shore Flower Clone—this Clone stood before him.

This Shore Flower Clone possessed one hundred percent of Su Han’s strength, also a Saint Realm First Layer entity, identical in physical body, divine sense, and aura—just lacking weapons and treasures.

"Divine Method: Three Mountains Five Peaks!"

The Chu Family Imperial Son had the Mountain Divine lineage, capable of harnessing the Power of the Earth for infinite strength—among Su Han’s numerous Divine Methods, one obtained from the Mountain Divine—this was a genuine Divine Method, and the strongest held by the Mountain Divine.

Boom!

A shadow of a gargantuan mountain emerged in the void—not an ordinary mountain, but an ancient Divine Mountain, incomparably heavy, unbreakable, akin to a stellar body, containing the power of the earth.

Crash!

The mountain shadow descended with a loud bang, bearing down on the Chu Family Imperial Son. He grasped the dark gold spear to withstand, yet still got suppressed, his feet deeply embedding into the ground, his body bending under the pressure.

Though the mountain shadow was not real, the contained strength was real, and with the Mountain Divine’s Method, it carried a specific suppressive force against the Chu Family Imperial Son.

"Cursing Killing Nether Technique!"

Su Han employed the Divine Method again, using his soul to communicate with the Netherworld, inviting ominous energy to the Chu Family Imperial Son, deploying a curse technique against him.

Instantly, the Chu Family Imperial Son felt his strength weakening, his divine sense dimming, his spirit withering, as though suffering a terrible illness.

"Magma of the Earth’s Core!"

The Chu Family Imperial Son couldn’t endure; he fetched the Great Emperor’s treasure to unleash a final strike on the Shore Flower Clone, then escape the scene.

Imperial Might like the heavens—frightening beyond compare—a blast of Earth’s Core Magma erupted, broad as a pillar, unbearably hot, reducing everything to ashes in its path, leaving nothing behind.

The mountain shadow was utterly unable to withstand, exploded upon contact with the Earth’s Core Magma, which then barreled toward the Shore Flower Clone—a strike by the Great Emperor would be unstoppable even by Su Han’s true form, let alone a clone.

"Origin Technique: Shape-Shifting Shadow!"

The Shore Flower Clone suddenly vanished, while the Chu Family Imperial Son appeared at the previous position, directly facing the Earth’s Core Magma.

"No!"

The Chu Family Imperial Son’s face was stricken with terror, letting out a scream, frantically countering with mountain surges, spiritual energy boiling, time power swaying—all to no avail.

The Earth’s Core Magma enveloped him, his life extinguished, even his bones reduced to nothing.

The Chu Family Imperial Son died by his own Great Emperor’s treasure!
