The moment the door, the Hades Yun Cheng and the Hades Ning Feng both had ugly expressions on their faces.
While Big Luo’s emotions were unstable, and he was in a state of confusion, he temporarily decided to cast all other problems aside and focus on the task at hand. His will was resolute and strong.
At this moment, Big Luo decided to block Yun Cheng and the rest. He would naturally not back down.
Before them, the Demonic Door was rendered useless. Yun Cheng sought to destroy the Demonic Door together with the Black and Red World behind it. Naturally, Big Luo no longer depended upon that jet-black Demonic Door.
After the door opened, it meant that Big Luo would directly face off against the Hades Yun Cheng and Ning Feng.
It would no longer be an exchange of words or a battle across distance. Instead, it would be a face-to-face fight.
It would be a fight to the death between the Hades!
“Big Luo, this is your last chance. Come with us.” The Hades Yun Cheng stepped into the Demonic Door and revealed his true form. His body appeared as tall as the sky, and his humongous form was covered with silvery-white hairs. Purple light swirled around his body and amidst those purple patterns of light, streams of white light flashed too.
In his pupils, a white halo could be seen. A cold light could be felt from it as he stared at Big Luo.
Big Luo too revealed his true form. He stood in the void, and his two claws hung by his side. A long tail swished behind him and the purple light flashed from his three horns.
Looking at Yun Cheng and Ning Feng, who had stepped into the Black and Red World, Big Luo shook his head and said, “Now, no.”
The Hades Yun Cheng said coldly, “I don’t take prisoners. There’s no exception for you too. Since you aren’t going to wake up your idea, I have no choice but to kill you.”
Big Luo’s gaze flashed and he flipped one of his claws. A ring flew out.
The flew hovered in mid-air and then turned into a purplish radiance, which took the shape of a halo. Like a ring, it went straight for the Hades Yun Cheng’s finger.
When the Hades Yun Cheng and Ning Feng saw it, confusion and rage appeared on their faces. “The ring of His Imperial Majesty…”
Earlier, during the battle of Mount Baiyun, the Hades Kong Yuan was subdued by this ring too. His powers which exceeded those of the Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage and the Earth Dragon King, could not be used. At the moment, he was severely weakened and he could no longer fight, nor escape.
Faced with Lin Feng and his Heaven-Destroying Sword, even with the assistance of the Illusory Sun Hades, he could not escape. The Kong Yuan Hades hence fell to Lin Feng and his word.
This ring was left behind by the Hades Emperor many years ago. Even the Kong Yuan Hades could not resist against it, much less the Yun Cheng Hades.
However, for the Hades Tribe who had suffered once because of it already, they could not pretend as if nothing had happened. In the War of the Two Worlds, they predicted more confrontations against the Celestial Sect of Wonders. Hence, the leader of the Hades Tribe, the Illusory Sun Hades, as well as Qingluan, Shi Xing, and Jingyan, tried to come up with counters against it.
Now, as he noticed the halo of purple light coming towards him, the Hades Yun Cheng roared and opened his mouth. He exhaled in the direction of the purple halo.
Black gas, like thick smoke, immediately enveloped the purplish halo. The black gas churned non-stop, as it tried to absorb the purple light.
The purple halo maintained its original shape and took the shape of a ring once more. Complicated engravings could be seen on the ring, and as the light flashed non-stop, the small ring suddenly expanded massively in size.
When the Yun Cheng Hades and the Ning Feng Hades saw that, their hearts sank. “This may be an inanimate object, but it is fully capable of subduing us Hades. It is truly a treasure of the Hades Emperor. There’s no way we can absorb it, but instead, we should try to avoid falling into its trap.”
As he thought about that, the Hades Yun Cheng continued to exhale black gas. The black gas was unable to trap the ring, which struggled for its freedom. Then, it turned back into a halo, which trapped the Hades Yun Cheng. The halo shrunk quickly, and immediately the enormous form of the Hades Yun Cheng became trapped inside it.
However, just as he was trapped by the halo of light, the Hades Yun Cheng spewed more black gas from his mouth. The black gas surrounded his body, as well as the purple halo.
The black gas was like ink. It enveloped the entire body of the Yun Cheng Hades. In the next instant, the Yun Cheng Hades, whose body was black as ink, started to twist.
The three horns on top of his head started to shine with white light and shot into the sky. The three rays of light congregated together and gradually formed a light projection. In the light projection, the body of the Hades Yun Cheng could be seen.
However, his black form, which was still trapped by the purple halo, did not move.
Big Luo saw it and understood immediately what was going on. “Is this an escape spell similar to a cicada shedding its shell?”
The black form that remained took Yun Cheng’s place as he was engulfed and trapped by the halo. Right now, the Yun Cheng Hades’ true form was slowly taking shape. As he escaped from the bondage of the ring, he was able to take on a new form. The black form that was trapped was just an empty shell he conjured with some secret spell.
While he was unable to take away the ring, this secret spell of the Hades prevented them from being defenseless when faced with the ring. Had it not been for their secret, they would be lambs for slaughter no matter how powerful they were.
Big Luo stared at the figure forming from the three rays of white light and said, “Yun Cheng did not manage to fully escape from the black shell. That spell will not take effect immediately. If that’s the case, there is still a chance. If he manages to break free from it completely, then it will be too late.”
Thinking about it, Big Luo wasted no time. His body flashed and he flew towards the white figure, which was the Yun Cheng Hades.
However, just as he moved, a ray of green light came slashing at him. It sliced space apart and like a blade dicing up the heavens and earth, it sought to cut Big Luo to pieces.
The Hades Ning Feng laughed madly, “So Lin Feng gave you the ring? No wonder you dare to face us. However, compared to His Majesty, you are still far too weak. If His Majesty uses the ring, then we are helpless. If you use it, however, it’s useless against us.”
“Even if it does work, so what?” Ning Feng, who resembled a human teen, smiled savagely. “For me, killing you is effortless.”
As he cackled, a huge green claw came slicing down on Big Luo’s head.
Big Luo noticed that he was no longer able to approach Yun Cheng and hence, he decided to abandon that notion. Instead, he concentrated on Ning Feng.
His three horns flashed non-stop with purple light and he grabbed outwards with his two claws, tearing space apart. Ten horrifying scars could be seen in space. It was as if space itself had been destroyed.
Purple light and green light clashed in void space, conjuring up a tempest.
“Eh? You possess such power as an Undying Demon Soul Stage demon? Even if you are a descendant of the Hades Emperor, you may not be…” The Hades Ning Feng said coldly. “However, your powers are nowhere there yet.”
As he said that, a green-and-black lance, fast as lightning, came shooting out from the green light. Tearing space apart, it made a beeline for Big Luo’s chest!
The green-and-black lance appeared to be formed from countless, compressed rays of green light. Its killing intent shot into the sky and when Big Luo sensed it, the light lance was already extremely close to him.
Big Luo frowned and he took a deep breath. Purple light pulsed on the three horns on his head. Purple light shot forth and in the void, they turned into a cloud of light, illuminating the heaven and earth.
As the light shone, Big Luo’s entire body became untouchable and ethereal. When the light lance penetrated the cloud of light, its direction changed as it slashed past Big Luo’s body.
However, as the green and black light lance penetrated through it, the purple light diminished.
The Hades Ning Feng laughed, “You have consulted the Demonic Book of the Heavenly Tao and came up with this? It appears to have traces of the spells of the Celestial Sect of Wonder too. You seem to be getting the best of both worlds.”
However, his smile quickly faded. “This makes me angry.”
As he said that, more light lances penetrated through the void and came towards Big Luo like rain.
Big Luo’s gaze turned heavy and the light above his horns shone even brighter. From his forehead, an extremely bright and eye-catching purple light appeared!
The moment the purple light appeared, the Black and Red World, which was originally filled with tears, started to vibrate vigorously. The Void Battleground, which was outside the Black and Red World, was filled with roaring winds.
Regardless whether it was the Yun Cheng Hades, who was regaining his form, or Ning Feng, who was battling against Big Luo, their bodies all trembled slightly.
The violent and eye-catching purple light shook the heavens and earth. It was as if a holy sovereign sought to descend.
While the light was only a momentary flash, its powers struck fear into the hearts of Yun Cheng and Ning Feng.
Ning Feng stared at Big Luo and mumbled, “Indeed, he can use the Hades Emperor’s Hades’ Dark Mantra!”
From Big Luo’s forehead, a most brilliant radiance, and a terrifying purple light could be seen. It was the Hades’ Dark Mantra, the source of the Hades Emperor all those years ago!
Where the light touched, the many light lances were instantly destroyed!
However, the disparity in power between the two was still too great. The Hades’ Dark Mantra Big Luo used was slowly being eroded by the light lances.
Big Luo’s gaze did not change as he continued to stare at Ning Feng.
The Hades Ning Feng stared at Big Luo too and said coldly, “Do you know? When I saw your Hades’ Dark Mantra, I want to kill you even more. Not only do I want to kill you, I wish to devour your flesh and blood and your Demonic Soul!”
“The power of the Hades Emperor himself and the power of Lin Feng. The combination of both is remarkable indeed and it exceeds all my expectations. That’s the only reason why I allow you to waste so much of my time.”
As the Hades Ning Feng said that, he roared in a low voice. His demonic powers became even more violent and powerful and his human form became engulfed with a large amount of silver hairs. Around his hairs, a layer of purple light flashed.
On the surface of the purple light, a huge amount of green runes appeared. They spun non-stop, shaking void space.
The Hades Ning Feng, who had finally revealed his true form, stepped forward and appeared before Big Luo instantly!
