Chapter 1606: Chapter 411: Death Before Defeat (Part 2)

Jiang Xuming felt as if his Void Body Immortal Body was about to shatter. He gritted his teeth, struggling to stand, and glanced outside the barrier, where he saw the worried and anxious faces of the Jiang family, along with the anxious eyes of his mother.

He only felt as if all the blood in his body had been drained, leaving an indescribable feeling.

The sky was dark, as if the apocalypse was near.

In this world, the cold wind was like a knife, scraping against his bones and face.

He stood before millions of people, his body broken, even to the point of being called pathetic.

Surrender?

Jiang Xuming clenched his fist. He knew that in this battle, the demons were intent on killing the prodigies of the Human Race, and would show no mercy, seizing any chance to deliver a lethal blow.

But, wasn’t he the same?

Surrender… Jiang Xuming’s clenched fist slowly relaxed, then he cast a relieved smile in the direction of his mother.

At the moment she saw that smile, Jiang Qiuyu was slightly stunned.

Then she saw Jiang Xuming lift his hand and tear open a rift, taking out a bottle of Pills from inside.

Jiang Qiuyu was dumbfounded, her blood seemed to congeal as she hurriedly tried to shout a warning, but Jiang Xuming had already tipped his head back and swallowed the Pills without hesitation.

Bang bang sounds echoed, it felt like the sensation of shackles breaking free; Jiang Xuming’s entire body ignited with a blazing golden Divine Light, which then transformed into a chaotic void, his hair flying upwards, his aura surged violently, reaching far beyond its previous magnitude, and his Cultivation Realm soared from the Eighth Layer of the Immortal Monarch Realm to the Ninth Layer!

Bang!

Raging Blood Qi surged, shattered by a single spear thrust.

Jiang Xuming lifted his head, cracks appeared on his face, his Void Body Immortal Body was on the verge of shattering.

This wild power made him feel an unprecedentedly frightening force.

Kill!

Without hesitation, he roared and charged towards Chi Xu.

Chi Xu’s pupils contracted, an astonished look appeared in his eyes, but then he let out an angry and ferocious roar, his entire being surged with Blood Qi, and strands of black Dao patterns suddenly erupted, covering his entire body!

“Devour the Eight Desolations!”

Seeing this scene, astonished looks appeared in the eyes of two demon prodigies, their expressions extremely grave.

They knew Chi Xu had brought out his strongest, trump-card power.

Boom!

The dojo shook, the aura-surging Jiang Xuming merged with his own Dharma Aspect, a giant spear streaked across the sky, charging into the Blood Sea.

The eight pitch-black chains within the Blood Sea snapped one by one, releasing some terrifying aura.

Su Zhenyuan and Jiang Qiuyu, along with the others, visibly changed colors.

“Xuming!”

Jiang Qiuyu’s eyes seemed to bleed, her aura surged and wavered, and she was surrounded by countless phenomena, transforming into a terrifying forbidden zone.

Amidst the sound of explosions, Chi Xu’s figure suddenly appeared in the Blood Sea, no longer a mass of blood-red slush, but a humanoid figure covered in sharp blood thorns, and in its thorn-covered hand, it firmly gripped a figure, none other than Jiang Xuming!

The divine spear in Jiang Xuming’s hand was already broken, its light lost, and his Immortal Body shattered, covered in cracks. He continued to release Immortal Techniques and pounded on his opponent, but he was unable to break free, instead, his own aura continued to weaken, being drained and absorbed.

“To force me into this shape, you deserve to die!”

Chi Xu growled, his voice dripping with ferocity and killing intent.

He suddenly thought of something, turned his head to look outside the Demon Ancestor Dojo, then grinned a large, ferocious smile, before his head suddenly enlarged, biting off half of Jiang Xuming’s body.

At that moment, the world seemed silent, the Thirty-six Thousand Immortal Cities were deadly quiet, as if speechless, dumbly watching this scene unfold.

Only the chewing sounds echoed within the dojo.

“Though there’s excessive consumption, the taste is acceptable.” Chi Xu evaluated to himself, then looked at the half-torn body still struggling, blood spreading from his palm, covering it.

“Quick, surrender!”

Jiang Qiuyu couldn’t help but take the risk, urgently transmitting her voice in anger.

Jiang Xuming’s Primordial Spirit had long detached to the side, glaring at the demon devouring his Immortal Body, he let out a roar, three hundred golden bones in his Primordial Spirit simultaneously shone with blazing light, then charged towards Chi Xu like a meteorite.

He wanted to expend all his Power of Primordial Spirit, to perish together with his opponent.

This momentum was extremely terrifying, forcing Chi Xu to halt his actions, looking solemnly, then repeatedly unleashed Blood Skill, one terrifying spike after another shot out, targeting Jiang Xuming’s Primordial Spirit, continually wearing down its power.

Since the ancient demon wars ended, both Humans and demons had been diligently researching and training against Immortal Techniques and killing blows targeting the Primordial Spirit. It’s also why even a hundred thousand years later, the True Realm’s core remains full of the Ten Thousand Clans, after endless battles, famous generals are sure to emerge, and the cultivation techniques of all clans have shifted towards the Primordial Spirit.

But, the Primordial Spirit is even more difficult to cultivate than realms.

Even with amazing Perception, you can only slightly speed up the pace, sudden enlightenment can’t solve it entirely, it still requires time to slowly settle and accumulate.

Thus, top prodigies like Jiang Xuming, managing to cultivate three hundred Primordial Spirit Golden Bones within a millennium, is already defying Perception.

Bang!!

Suddenly, a Black Cauldron rushed out from within the Blood Sea, colliding into Jiang Xuming’s Primordial Spirit.

A massive crash resounded, extinguishing the golden flames of Jiang Xuming’s Primordial Spirit, leaving him befuddled and dazed on the spot.

The Black Cauldron turned upside down, enveloping him within, then Chi Xu began devouring his Immortal Body, once finished, he came before the Black Cauldron, releasing blood power inside, transforming into scarlet blood flames, constantly burning.

The Black Cauldron was sealed by the power of the Pseudo Realm, isolating Jiang Xuming’s screams and sounds, but everyone could see, Jiang Xuming’s Primordial Spirit was struggling under the blood flame within the Black Cauldron, emitting painful howls, his entire form beginning to melt like a candle.
