Chapter 1029: Chapter 1048: Luo Hou’s Scheming, Three Calamities Descend
“Haha.”
“Success, success.”
Luo Hou flipped his hand and held the Heavenly Punishment Halberd, tendrils of the Power of Silence Annihilation swirling around the spear, causing Luo Hou to laugh maniacally.
“Attack!”
Ye Xuan’s body, spanning ten thousand miles, instantly returned to normal, as the Hand of Heaven came crashing down upon him and Luo Hou.
“Hong Jun, die!”
Darkness engulfed everything, slaughtering Heaven and Earth.
With a sinister laugh, Luo Hou swung the halberd towards Hong Jun Dao Ancestor, the annihilation force capable of destroying all things swept out, instantly turning the Hand of Heaven to dust, and then continued unabated towards Hong Jun Dao Ancestor.
“Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.”
Facing the terrifying annihilation force, Hong Jun Dao Ancestor’s face changed drastically, the Creation Jade Disk clashing protectively in front of him. With a deafening crash, the jade disk showed cracks, and Hong Jun Dao Ancestor’s face flushed red as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
“Ah!”
Suddenly, an extremely strange event occurred. Luo Hou, wielding the Heavenly Punishment Halberd, screamed in agony as the Power of Silence Annihilation backfired up his right arm, rapidly withering it and beginning to spread to his entire body.
Slash!
Luo Hou, ruthless as ever, swung his left hand and chopped off his right arm, which disintegrated into a wisp of black smoke under the ravaging Power of Silence Annihilation, leaving not even a trace of bone behind.
“How could this be?” Luo Hou roared in shock.
At that moment, Ye Xuan also stood stunned at the scene, then suddenly snapped back to reality, a grave expression appearing in his eyes.
It was clear that while the Power of Silence Annihilation was terrifying and could wound Hong Jun Dao Ancestor, Luo Hou had no control over it and was naturally counterattacked by it.
A thousand enemies harmed at the cost of eight hundred self-inflicted wounds, the complete Heavenly Punishment Halberd was a double-edged sword, capable of wounding both the enemy and oneself.
Similarly, Ye Xuan also understood a truth: even if he wielded the Heavenly Punishment Halberd, he would still be counterattacked, as he also lacked control over the Power of Silence Annihilation.
“Ridiculous, utterly ridiculous!”
Suddenly, from above the starry sky, Hong Jun Dao Ancestor spoke mercilessly, looking down at Ye Xuan and Luo Hou, his eyes filled with utter annihilation.
“This Divine Weapon is indeed fearsome, containing the Power of Silence Annihilation, it could indeed kill me, but unfortunately, you two cannot control this Divine Weapon. Today, both of you will surely die,” Hong Jun Dao Ancestor spoke infinitely.
At this moment.
Ye Xuan and Luo Hou furrowed their brows, their hearts impossibly heavy. Just as Hong Jun Dao Ancestor said, while the complete Heavenly Punishment Halberd could hurt Hong Jun, they too would suffer a backlash.
“Friend Ye, today it’s either his death or ours, even if we are counterattacked by the Power of Silence Annihilation, you and I must kill him together.”
Luo Hou spoke viciously, swinging the Heavenly Punishment Halberd once more, madly charging at Hong Jun Dao Ancestor.
Boom!
Ye Xuan’s eyes turned fierce, he too charged at Hong Jun Dao Ancestor, even if it meant mutual destruction, he must kill Hong Jun to survive the Heavenly Dao Six Tribulations.
Rumble!
Luo Hou in front, Ye Xuan behind, the two of them attacked in unison, while Hong Jun Dao Ancestor wore a grave expression, the Creation Jade Disk rumbling as it prepared for a life-and-death battle with the two.
“Red Dust Myriad Tribulations, Transplanting Flowers and Trees!”
Suddenly, while charging towards Hong Jun Dao Ancestor, Luo Hou turned abruptly, an extremely terrifying Red Dust Power surging through him, as he struck a palm at Ye Xuan.
Bam!
A stealthy and completely unexpected attack!
Ye Xuan had no time to react, directly struck by Luo Hou’s palm to his chest, yet strangely, Ye Xuan suffered no injury, instead a wisp of Red Dust Qi melded into his body.
“Friend Ye, forgive me, my Red Dust Six Tribulations will pass through you; I will remember your kindness, once I master the Power of Silence Annihilation within the Heavenly Punishment Halberd, I will surely avenge your death today.”
Luo Hui gave a sinister smile, and holding the Heavenly Punishment Halberd, transformed into an Escape Light and vanished, completely slipping away from Hong Jun Dao Ancestor’s lock, disappearing entirely into the starry sky.
“Luo Hou!”
Ye Xuan’s face twisted in rage, his mouth emitted an enraged roar, but Luo Hou, along with the Heavenly Punishment Halberd, had disappeared without a trace, completely withdrawing from the battlefield.
Rumble!
Blood-red thunderbolts suddenly appeared in the starry sky, a terrifying visage formed overhead, the entire Three Realms shone brightly, with tendrils of Heavenly Dao rules descending towards Hong Jun Dao Ancestor. The cracked Creation Jade Disk was miraculously restored, and Hong Jun Dao Ancestor’s aura turned even more terrifying.
“Heavenly Dao Seven Tribulations?”
“Could it really be the Heavenly Dao Seven Tribulations?”
Such a spectacle left Ye Xuan momentarily stunned, feeling his cultivation transform once more, directly advancing from Heavenly Dao Six Tribulations into the Heavenly Dao Seven Tribulations.
Ye Xuan’s injuries healed instantly, his aura becoming horrifyingly strong again, yet he showed no joy, instead a look of extreme despair in his eyes.
“Luo Hou, you bastard.” Ye Xuan roared in fury, stars exploded, millions of miles of the galaxy upheaved.
Red Dust Six Tribulations!
Luo Hou actually grafted his own Red Dust Six Tribulations onto Ye Xuan, enabling his escape from the battlefield.
Clearly, Luo Hou would never risk mutual destruction with Hong Jun, once he realized he couldn’t control the Power of Silence Annihilation in the Heavenly Punishment Halberd, he had already planned to escape.
However, he was undergoing the Red Dust Six Tribulations, with the Heavenly Dao aura locking onto him, he couldn’t leave the battlefield.
Yet, Luo Hou was extremely cunning and always prepared. He had left a backup plan intended for this very situation, ready to pass the Red Dust Six Tribulations.
Red Dust Myriad Tribulations, Transplanting Flowers and Trees!
This was the Supreme Secret Technique within the Myriad Feet Red Dust Technique, the reason he dared to collaborate with Ye Xuan. If they couldn’t overcome the tribulation, he would seize an opportunity to perform the technique, grafting his Red Dust Six Tribulations onto Ye Xuan.
Because this Secret Technique required someone at the same level to execute, Luo Hou always considered Ye Xuan as his substitute for crossing the tribulation, which was why he allied with Ye Xuan and agreed to cooperate.
At this moment.
Ye Xuan not only had to cross his own Heavenly Dao Six Tribulations but also bore Luo Hou’s Red Dust Six Tribulations, directly propelling him into the Heavenly Dao Seven Tribulations.
While Ye Xuan entering the Heavenly Dao Seven Tribulations made him incredibly powerful, it was no blessing. It marked an escalation in calamities to unfathomable levels.
Heavenly Dao Six Tribulations, Red Dust Six Tribulations, along with the descending Heavenly Dao Seven Tribulations endowed Hong Jun Dao Ancestor with unimaginable strength by the will of the Heavenly Dao.
Ye Xuan stepping into the Heavenly Dao Seven Tribulations was indeed strong, but the current Hong Jun Dao Ancestor was even stronger.
And this was just the tip of the iceberg, as the convergence of three great calamities: all of Ye Xuan’s latent crises would erupt one by one, facing the deadliest tribulation in history with no chance of survival.
