Su Chen stood with his hands behind his back, calmly watching everything unfold.
Ye Ningshuang glanced at the skeleton sitting cross-legged and frowned, saying, "The stone tablet outside the cave clearly states that the Blood Shadow Immortal Emperor entered the depths of the Forbidden Land of Death, but what about this skeleton? Could it be that the Blood Shadow Immortal Emperor didn't enter the Forbidden Land of Death at all?"
Yafu lowered her head in thought. She was also puzzled about what the Blood Shadow Immortal Emperor wanted to do. Judging from the current situation, the Blood Shadow Immortal Emperor was definitely plotting something.
At the same time, everyone in the arena was already bloodthirsty.
A group of people noticed Su Chen and his two companions in the distance and then charged towards them like madmen.
Su Chen looked up at the group of people, but only glanced at them before looking away.
Buzz!
A flash of sword light!
Dozens of bloody heads flew straight out, tracing a gruesome arc in the air, and a large amount of blood gushed out, staining the ground red.
Some people who were originally planning to attack Su Chen and his companions changed their targets after seeing this scene.
We can't beat them!
We simply can't beat them!
Liu Tiezhu stared at Su Chen, his eyes narrowed slightly, a sharp glint in them, as if he were deep in thought.
Suddenly, someone brandishing a weapon attacked him.
Liu Tiezhu glanced at the man, then casually struck out with his palm. The man's expression changed drastically, and he tried to meet the blow head-on. However, his weapon shattered the moment it touched the palm.
The man was completely stunned. Before he could react, the palm struck his head heavily, and with a loud "bang," his head exploded like fireworks.
Liu Tiezhu withdrew his hand, his expression calm.
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the hall was filled with a pungent smell of blood. Limbs and remains were flying everywhere, and everyone's death was extremely gruesome. Some had their heads cut off, while others had been severed in half, a sight that sent chills down the spines of onlookers.
Only a handful of people remained in the arena: Su Chen and his two companions, the man in black robes, the one-armed old man, and finally Liu Tiezhu.
As for the woman with the strength of the Immortal Sovereign Realm, she was killed by the black-robed man and the one-armed old man in the battle just now.
The one-armed old man gasped for breath, his expression excited, his body even trembling. "These immortal crystals and the Blood Shadow Immortal Emperor's legacy are all mine!"
Suddenly, the one-armed old man's pupils widened, his eyes filled with confusion. He slowly lowered his head and saw a hand piercing through his body, and in that hand, his heart was still being squeezed, and his heart was still beating.
The one-armed old man used his last bit of strength to turn his head and look behind him, and the person who had pierced his heart was none other than Liu Tiezhu!
The one-armed old man opened his mouth, his voice trembling, "Why... why?"
"Why?"
Liu Tiezhu smirked and sneered, "Even if I told you, you wouldn't have time to listen. Just die in peace."
The one-armed old man's eyes were wide open, his face filled with resentment, before he finally lost all life.
Liu Tiezhu withdrew his right hand from the one-armed old man's body, looked at the still-beating heart, grinned, and then squeezed hard, crushing the heart.
Licking the blood splattered on his face, Liu Tiezhu slowly turned his gaze to the black-robed man in the distance.
The man in black robes was startled and dared not be careless. He held his broadsword and slashed at Liu Tiezhu.
A terrifying Sword Qi condensed on the blade and headed straight for Liu Tiezhu.
Liu Tiezhu showed no sign of panic as he vanished from his spot, easily dodging the Sword Qi.
The man in black robes felt a strong aura of death engulf his entire body. His face hardened, he gripped his broadsword tightly, turned around abruptly, and then unleashed all his strength to strike.
The moment the blade was unleashed, it tore through space, causing the entire hall to tremble, yet there was no sign of it collapsing.
This strike was terrifying, but it missed its mark!
The black-robed man's pupils suddenly contracted, and the hairs on his body stood on end. He was about to turn around when a hand grabbed the back of his head.
The man in black robes stood frozen in place, his face deathly pale, his eyes filled with the terror of death. He struggled to compose himself, swallowed hard, and then stammered, "Spare... spare my life."
Liu Tiezhu remained silent, his face cold. He simply exerted force with his right hand, and the black-robed man's head was crushed without any surprise.
Liu Tiezhu flicked the blood off his hands and said coldly, "Things as insignificant as ants dare to dream of inheriting the legacy."
Ye Ningshuang stared at Liu Tiezhu and said gravely, "This guy is like a completely different person!"
Liu Tiezhu then turned his gaze to Su Chen and the other two, his cold expression vanishing as a strange smile appeared on his face. "I'll give you a chance to live. Submit to me, and I'll spare your lives."
Ye Ningshuang said coldly, "Who exactly are you!"
"Who I am?"
Liu Tiezhu sneered, glanced at the skeleton, then joined two fingers together to form a sword. Under the gaze of Su Chen and the other two, he actually slashed his own neck, and blood gushed out immediately.
Liu Tiezhu's life force was also rapidly fading away, but strangely, there was no fear of death on his face, only excitement and agitation.
thump!
His body fell straight to the ground.
Ye Ningshuang's eyes widened. "Has this guy gone mad?"
Yafu said in a deep voice, "That's not right!"
As she finished speaking, a beam of red light suddenly shot out from Liu Tiezhu's body, rushing into the skeleton at an extremely fast speed and hovering over the heart.
At the same time, the blood on the ground, like a winding snake, slowly flowed towards the skeleton. The skeleton greedily absorbed the blood. In an instant, the skeleton once again burst forth with a dazzling red light, the light flickering like flames.
Then, under the incredulous gazes of the two women, tender flesh buds began to sprout from the white bones, and blood vessels spread rapidly like a fine spider web. Before long, a complete body had taken shape, and finally, the appearance of a middle-aged man gradually became clear in the bloody light.
His eyes were tightly closed, yet he exuded a chilling aura that filled Ye Ningshuang and Yafu with endless fear.
At this moment, the middle-aged man opened his eyes, his cold gaze carrying a hint of sharpness and vicissitude. He glanced at his hands and smiled calmly, "After millions of years of silence, I am finally reborn."
Ye Ningshuang and Yafu stared nervously at the middle-aged man, their bodies tense and their expressions more solemn than ever before.
The middle-aged man gave them a dangerous feeling!
Extremely dangerous!
The middle-aged man looked up at Su Chen and the other two, and smiled calmly, "Don't be nervous. As long as you obey me, I won't kill you."
Yafu asked in a low voice, "Who are you?"
"Who I am?"
The middle-aged man chuckled lightly, "Everyone calls me the Blood Shadow Immortal Emperor."
Upon hearing this, Ye Ningshuang and Yafu were immediately startled.
Ye Ningshuang said, "You're talking nonsense. Blood Shadow Immortal Emperor clearly died deep in the Forbidden Land of Death, so you can't possibly be Blood Shadow Immortal Emperor. Who are you?"
