Chapter 2893: Chapter 2888: Failure of the Death Omen Scripture_1
Yang Chen had already arrived near the Earth Sea Cave, but he didn’t rush to appear and duel with Mu Taiqing.
Actually, he hadn’t reached the point where he could confidently defeat Mu Taiqing just because he had killed two Boundless Ghost Venerables already.
One must know that the gap between the Nirvana Realm and the Great Path Stage could be enormous. Let alone the Boundless Stage, where the monsters could have lived millions of years.
Especially Mu Taiqing, an absolute ancient monster that had been reborn from the primitive era, his abilities were definitely not ordinary.
To deal with him, Yang Chen had to be fully prepared.
At this moment, Yang Chen stealthily approached the Earth Sea Cave, staying cautious.
This time, he didn’t dare to expose his Divine Soul for fear that Mu Taiqing might detect something. He relied entirely on his other means of disguise to enter the Earth Sea Cave.
Upon arriving near the Earth Sea Cave, Yang Chen began his plan.
He sat cross-legged and found an uninhabited place.
Then, Yang Chen’s lips moved slightly as he began chanting.
What he was chanting was none other than the Death Evil Scripture, which he had been using more and more proficiently.
As the Death Evil Scripture was recited, it instantly spread throughout the entire vicinity of the Earth Sea Cave.
Due to this, all the ghostly beings nearby felt dizzy and disoriented in a blink of an eye.
“Not good.”
“We’re under attack!”
“What’s happening!”
The Netherworld ghosts became panicked. However, they couldn’t do anything before they fell to the ground, either dead or injured.
Even the thirteen Great Ascension Ghost Lords, who had just emerged from the Earth Sea Cave, were quickly knocked unconscious and completely suppressed under the Death Evil Scripture.
“Who is it?”
Mu Taiqing also reacted quickly. The moment he heard the chant, he realized something was wrong.
“Crap, this chant is actually affecting me too. I let my guard down.” Mu Taiqing clenched his teeth, his body shivering, unable to move.
Seeing this, Yang Chen showed a look of joy, knowing his plan was halfway successful. However, Mu Taiqing wasn’t as simple as he thought. Just as Yang Chen’s joy subsided, Mu Taiqing suddenly slapped his palm and materialized an ancient zither out of thin air.
With the ancient zither on his lap, he gently stroked it, and the melody instantly spread and echoed in the surroundings.
Hearing this melody, Yang Chen, who had the upper hand by ambushing with the Death Evil Scripture, was suddenly taken aback. He was countered by his opponent using his own tactics against him.
“This melody is quite powerful. It’s even paralyzing my Dao Intent Inscription. What kind of power is this…”
Shocked, Yang Chen couldn’t believe it.
Mu Taiqing, seizing the melody, plucked it over and over again. The melody collided with the power of the Death Evil Scripture in an instant, tearing through the latter’s strength like a sheet of paper, leaving it utterly defeated.
The Netherworld ghosts suffered the most. Caught between the clash of these two powerful beings, they were either killed or maimed, not a single one unscathed.
Yang Chen’s situation was also far from ideal, as he was utterly losing against the ancient zither’s melody, unable to fight back.
“Not good…”
Yang Chen knew that he was undoubtedly going to lose if this continued. He had to resort to other means!
With that thought, he hesitated no more and took out the God Slayer Spear. He thrust it through, delivering a fierce blow to Mu Taiqing.
This strike leveled the Earth Sea Cave, turning the previously intact place into ashes in an instant.
However, Mu Taiqing stood motionless, holding the ancient zither with no injuries whatsoever.
Yet, his melody attack did come to a halt due to Yang Chen’s strike.
At this moment, in the vast desert, only the two figures faced each other high in the sky. Standing hundreds of feet apart, they gazed at each other intently.
“I should have known it was you, Yang Chen… ha ha. You choose the way to hell instead of heaven. So, after entering the Great Path Stage and learning a few nice Tao skills, do you really think you can trample over my head?” Mu Taiqing sneered: “But I should thank you. I had such a hard time searching for you in the Southern Realm. Fortunately, I found you before Peng Wanli did.”
Enemies are always red-eyed when they meet.
Yang Chen, seeing Mu Taiqing, was equally rude: “Mu Taiqing, do you think I can’t win just because I’m here? It’s not certain who will win or lose now.”
As he spoke, Yang Chen struck out with another spear thrust.
Another earthshaking spear strike, causing the ground to tremble and shake with its power!
“Ha ha, just a brat like you?” Mu Taiqing mocked.
Of course, Mu Taiqing took Yang Chen’s abilities very seriously despite his outward mockery. Yang Chen’s Death Evil Scripture and God Slayer Spear had nearly made it difficult for him to withstand.
With another spear strike from Yang Chen, Mu Taiqing didn’t hesitate to strike the ancient zither again. The melody resonated, turning into three blades that fused with his Law powers, clashing with Yang Chen’s long spear. Neither could get the better of the other, but Mu Taiqing seemed to have a slight advantage.
Seeing this, Yang Chen’s eyes widened, unable to believe what he saw. His God Slayer Spear had been invincible for quite some time, but it had been thwarted by Mu Taiqing twice.
“Right, I almost forgot. Mu Taiqing is also a wielder of an Emperor Divine Artifact, and this ancient zither is his personal Emperor Divine Artifact.”
His own God-slaying Spear had evolved into an Emperor Divine Artifact, which was quite a rare case.
However, Mu Taiqing was also an exceptional case, as he possessed an Emperor Divine Artifact himself.
As the two Emperor Divine Artifacts collided and with Mu Taiqing in the Boundless Stage, it was quite normal for him to have a slight advantage over Yang Chen.
However, for Mu Taiqing, this was anything but normal.
“Well done, lad. You’ve made a lot of progress over the years. It’s no wonder that you were chosen as the third owner of the Universe Destroying Map.” Mu Taiqing grinned.
“Mu Taiqing, you’re mistaken. The Universe Destroying Map has never recognized you as its master. If it really did, the Map wouldn’t have ended up in my hands.” Yang Chen replied coldly.
Mu Taiqing’s face turned cold, seemingly struck a nerve.
However, he wasn’t easily angered. Instead, he licked his lips: “Is that so? Once I kill you, I’ll erase the Weapon Spirit of the Universe Destroying Map, and then, I’ll still be its master!”
Mu Taiqing laughed arrogantly, not wanting to waste any more words with Yang Chen, and slapped his palm down.
