Invincible Divine Sword - Chapter 366

Chapter 366: Chapter 366: The Birth of the Grim Reaper
 

“`

Vitality surged thousands of miles!

Even many of the Elf Clan’s Saint Realm Powerhouses might not possess such formidable vitality.

Yet Yang Xiaotian was merely a Martial Emperor.

“Kill him!” Upon seeing this, Xi Yuandong’s killing intent intensified.

She wanted to rush to Yang Xiaotian’s side, but just as she dashed forward, she was forced back by the Heartfelt Demon Ape’s towering iron chains.

“Bang!”

A deafening explosion was heard.

An Elf Clan Divine Spirit Powerhouse was struck by the towering iron chains, sent flying through the air, crashing through the walls of the Elf King City. When he tumbled to the ground, his armor burst apart; his skull was a mangled mess, completely shattered!

Witnessing this, all the Elf Clan Divine Spirit Powerhouses gasped in shock.

Though Divine Spirits were powerful, with terrifying vitality and life force, a shattered head meant certain death, even for a Divine Spirit.

“Ancestor Yan!” The direct descendants of this Elf Clan Divine Spirit Powerhouse wailed in grief.

The Demon Ape swung its iron chain toward Xi Yuandong and the others once again.

Seeing the chain that seemed to be in the hands of the Death God itself, Xi Yuandong and the others felt a chilling terror.

It wasn’t long before the Hai Family Patriarch was also struck and sent flying by the chains.

Like Ancestor Yan earlier, the Hai Family Patriarch’s skull was utterly cracked upon landing.

The likes of Xi Mo, who had intended to persevere, were trembling with fear.

“Your Majesty, we should retreat for now!” an Elf Clan Divine Spirit Powerhouse pleaded, nearly in tears.

The two who had just perished, the Hai Family Patriarch and Ancestor Yan, were both in the First Layer of the Divine Spirit Realm. He felt that he would be the next target, as he was the weakest among the remaining Elf Clan Divine Spirit Powerhouses.

Xi Yuandong surveyed the entire city, seeing the Elf Clan Army being slaughtered by Yang Xiaotian, the Azure Thunder Python, and a few others. His eyes turned blood-red with rage as he bellowed, “Retreat!”

Hearing Xi Yuandong’s order to retreat, people like Xi Mo breathed a sigh of relief. No one wished to continue fighting, and they all started to withdraw.

The Elf Clan Army, which originally had Yang Xiaotian completely surrounded, retreated like a receding tide.

In the end, the millions-strong Elf Clan Army completely retreated.

Yang Xiaotian and the others did not pursue, as their main goal was the Life God Tree.

Looking at the Elf Clan City, which had nearly turned to ruins, Yang Xiaotian said, “Let’s head to the Forbidden Ground first!”

The Life God Tree was located in the Elf Clan Forbidden Ground.

The Forbidden Ground was not within the Elf King City, but it wasn’t far from it.

Soon, Yang Xiaotian arrived at the Forbidden Ground and saw the Life God Tree.

The Life God Tree stood a hundred feet tall, lush and verdant, with specks of golden light. Tiny beings flitted between its branches; upon closer inspection, they were thumb-sized life spirits.

These spirits had no physical form; they were made from Spiritual Energy, making the Life God Tree as beautiful as a dream.

Admiring the Life God Tree before him, Yang Xiaotian couldn’t help but praise it, and the Demon Ape and others were equally impressed.

“It’s said that this Life God Tree is over a million years old,” the Demon Ape commented. “It was brought back by an Elf Clan Ancient Ancestor from the Desolate Battlefield.”

Yang Xiaotian nodded.

Next, they had to figure out how to move the Life God Tree.

As Yang Xiaotian was about to ask the Demon Ape and the others to get started, Master Ding, who had been silent for a long time, spoke up, “Let me do it!” With that, he soared up into the sky, growing as large as a mountain. Then, he began to engulf the Life God Tree with his cauldron mouth.

“`

Instantly, the ground around shook violently, cracked, and the Life God Tree slowly flew out from beneath the earth.

The Demon Ape was encountering Master Ding for the first time and looked up at Master Ding in the sky, stunned.

Having lived nearly ten thousand years, it was the first time he had seen a Medicine Cauldron with a spirit birthed within it.

Just as Yang Xiaotian was retrieving the Life God Tree, the ten thousand-feet-tall Bone Mountain also closed in on the Elf Clan City at an astonishing speed.

Wherever the Bone Mountain passed, the originally lush land was turned into a deathly grey, all the green grass and big trees seemed as if their life force had been drained, instantly wilting and dying.

Even the originally clear rivers turned into rivers of deathly stillness, with all the fish and living beings inside floating up as corpses.

Xi Yuandong, who had escaped from the Elf Clan City, and Xi Mo, leading the Elf Clan Army in a panicked flight, suddenly saw a gigantic Bone Mountain flying towards them in the distance.

Feeling the terrifying death energy from the immense Bone Mountain, both Xi Yuandong and Xi Mo turned pale.

“It’s the Undying Death Qi!”

“All forces, prepare to meet the enemy!” Xi Yuandong commanded sternly.

The Bone Mountain approached incredibly fast, and in the blink of an eye, it had already reached where Xi Yuandong and the others were.

When the Bone Mountain drew near, Xi Yuandong and the others, feeling the surging endless death energy, changed their expressions drastically.

At that moment, the Bone Mountain suddenly cracked open, and a sinister young man walked out from within.

The young man was wearing a brocade robe filled with death energy that flowed incessantly.

Feeling the dreadful Undying Death Qi of the young man, Xi Yuandong’s expression became grave.

The young man glanced at the countless Elf Clan Army, and with a sinister smile, he said to Xi Yuandong, “Are you the current Elf Queen? Only at the third layer of Divine Spirit Realm, I didn’t expect the Elf Clan to have become so weak over a million years.”

Facing the young man, Xi Yuandong felt her breathing constrained. She channeled all her divine power and tightly gripped the Elf Sword in her hand, asking in a deep voice, “Who are you, sir?”

“Who am I?” The young man thought for a moment and laughed, “A million years ago, the people of Azure God Continent called me the Undying Death God.”

“The Undying Death God!” Xi Yuandong, Xi Mo, and the others gasped in horror, shaking in fear.

Many Elf Clan experts were so frightened that their swords fell from their hands.

“Impossible, the Lord of Azure God had killed the Undying Death God back then, you cannot be the Undying Death God!” An Elf Clan Ancestor said frenziedly, shaking his head in denial.

Xi Yuandong too was in disbelief.

After all, the Divine Tome clearly recorded that the Undying Death God had been killed by the Lord of Azure God.

The young man chuckled, “It doesn’t matter whether you believe it or not because soon you will become the first batch of Divine Spirit level Death Spirits under my command!” As he spoke, the Undying Death Qi rose like a tsunami, soaring into the sky.

As the Undying Death Qi erupted from within him, the clouds of the Nine Heavens changed color; the originally white clouds turned into grey death clouds, and the once clear sky also turned completely dead grey.

Behind him, the skulls from the Bone Mountain overwhelmed Xi Yuandong, Xi Mo, and the others.

In an instant, screams could be heard.

Squad after squad of the Elf Clan Army was devoured by the Bone Mountain.

Xi Yuandong, Xi Mo, and the others frantically launched attacks, but to their despair, they found that as soon as they shattered these skulls, the skulls would instantly reform.

It was clear these skeletons were indestructible.

At that moment, Xi Yuandong and the others realized that only by killing the young man could these skulls be truly destroyed.

“Kill him!” Xi Mo, with a determined heart, suddenly stabbed at the young man with her sword.

Seeing this, the young man simply flicked his finger, and Xi Mo was sent flying with just that flick, crashing to the ground far away, followed by agonized screams. They could see that the finger force from the young man had pierced through Xi Mo’s chest, and the Undying Death Qi was crazily devouring her flesh and even her soul.
