Chapter 623: The Poison Curse Talent Unleashed!
TL: Etude
Boom!!! A skeletal dragon flew rapidly from afar, its entire body pitch black, clearly an undead creature formed from the corpse of a black dragon.
Its aura was incredibly strong, far surpassing that of a typical Great God. Even the previous slaughter soldiers paled in comparison to this skeletal dragon.
“It’s a bone dragon formed from the corpse of the Universal God Black Dragon!” Jin Shan immediately recognized its origin and exclaimed urgently.
“The corpse of the Universal God Black Dragon,” Ye Tian murmured.
Due to the limitations of the cosmic rules, it was difficult for beings above the God level to enhance their physical strength. Although the physical bodies of Universal Gods seemed no different from Great Gods, in reality, the differences were substantial.
Firstly, the physical bodies of Universal Gods were immortal, while those of Great Gods had a lifespan limit. In terms of life level, Universal Gods were pseudo-fourth tier beings, while Great Gods were at most pseudo-third tier. This difference in life level directly resulted in a significant disparity in physical defense.
The skeletal remains of the Universal God Black Dragon possessed formidable defensive capabilities and remarkable regenerative abilities, far beyond what a Great God could compare to.
Additionally, the bones of this skeletal dragon likely contained the Dragon Power of the Universal God Black Dragon. Even if this power lay dormant and the bone dragon struggled to control it, a sudden outburst could still unleash a terrifying impact.
Moreover, this skeletal dragon carried a faint pressure of a Universal God, which could impose tremendous pressure on Great Gods, hindering their ability to exert their full power.At this moment, Jin Shan was affected. Being from the Dragon Race, specifically the noble Gold Dragon Race, she still couldn’t resist the dragon might of a Universal God.
Thus, when the bone dragon approached, the faint dragon might of the Universal God caused her face to turn slightly pale.
“Leave it to me,” Ye Tian said calmly.
Then, he made his move. “Six Paths Chaos Palm!”
A six-fingered hand appeared in the void, with each finger containing the power of a Dao. The six powers circulated and intertwined, forming a formidable suppression force of the Six Paths of Reincarnation. Combined with the power of the Chaos Dao, the Six Paths Chaos Palm became an incredibly terrifying divine secret technique.
Boom!!! The Six Paths Chaos Palm descended, and although the bone dragon resisted with all its might, its power was suppressed by the Six Paths. It couldn’t fully unleash its strength and couldn’t even escape.
“Roar!!!”
Black light erupted from the bone dragon, representing the power of the Universal God, bursting forth in this moment.
Unfortunately, this power, having endured countless ages, was no longer as formidable as it once was. It could only deal with other Great Gods and couldn’t shake someone like Ye Tian, a Child of the Era.
Crack, crack, crack!!! In an instant, the bone dragon was shattered by Ye Tian’s Six Paths Chaos Palm, fragments scattering everywhere.
After the strike, Ye Tian said, “Princess Jin Shan, let’s continue.”
“Uh, okay!” Jin Shan nodded blankly.
Although she had witnessed Ye Tian’s strength before, seeing him annihilate a bone dragon formed from a Universal God in an instant still left her utterly shocked.
“Too strong!” She couldn’t fathom Ye Tian’s true limits and finally understood why the high-ranking members of her clan spoke so highly of the Prince of Ten Thousand Laws from the human race.
The pair continued their journey.
Deep within the Twilight Forbidden Zone, there were many undead creatures. At one point, they even encountered an undead army composed entirely of ferocious beast skeletons, including those of Universal God-level beasts.
Although Ye Tian was confident he could confront the undead army head-on—his power was infinite, supported by the Ancient Chaos Realm, so he didn’t fear exhausting his strength—he chose to avoid them to save time and prevent being surrounded by the undead army.
Finally, Ye Tian and Jin Shan reached their destination, the place containing the World Source Stone.
“Your Highness of Ten Thousand Laws, this is the place!” Jin Shan pointed to a river not far ahead.
Ye Tian looked over and quickly realized that this river wasn’t an ordinary one, but a river of blood.
From this river of blood, Ye Tian sensed a faint threat. Although it was just a slight sense, it was enough to prove that this place was extremely dangerous.
“Princess Jin Shan, do you know the origin of this blood river?” Ye Tian asked.
Jin Shan recounted the information she had gathered from ancient texts: “I know a bit. It’s said that during ancient times, there was an internal war among ferocious beasts. Countless beasts died, and their blood flowed here, forming this blood river.
This blood river also gave birth to a special type of creature known as blood beasts. These blood beasts depend on the blood river, and as long as they’re in the river, their power is nearly inexhaustible and they’re very hard to kill.
It’s said that there are many blood beasts in the river, but I don’t know the exact number. I originally prepared some special weapons specifically for dealing with these blood beasts, carried by my guards. However, those guards died protecting me shortly after entering the Twilight Forbidden Zone.”
“The World Source Stone should be at the bottom of the blood river, right?” Ye Tian asked.
“Yes,” Jin Shan nodded.
“Wait outside the blood river. If you enter, I’m afraid I won’t be able to protect you,” Ye Tian said seriously.
“Alright,” Jin Shan nodded reluctantly.
In the Dragon Race, her strength was among the top even among Great Gods. She was used to considering others as burdens, but now, it seemed Ye Tian saw her as one. There was no choice; her strength was indeed weak, making it difficult to reach the bottom of the blood river without being overwhelmed by the numerous blood beasts.
With a swift movement, Ye Tian flew into the blood river. As soon as he entered, a large group of blood beasts swarmed towards him.
Ye Tian used his copy talent to envelop the area, observing the talents of these blood beasts. They all shared a common talent—the Blood Source Talent. This talent was clearly related to the blood river, allowing them to draw power from it. Without the blood river, these blood beasts wouldn’t pose a threat even to someone like Jin Shan, a Peak Child of the Universe.
In essence, without the blood river, these blood beasts would be useless. As they attacked, Ye Tian released a barrage of spatial blades.
Puff, puff, puff!!! Each blood beast struck by the spatial blades was torn into pieces, but their bodies quickly regenerated under the river’s power.
“They’re indeed hard to kill, but let’s see if they can withstand the Poison Curse Talent!” Ye Tian thought to himself.
Immediately, Ye Tian unleashed his Poison Curse Talent, releasing a curse poison onto the blood beasts.
Soon, the curse poison spread, and the blood served as a perfect medium, infecting many blood beasts.
Gradually, green spots appeared on the blood beasts’ bodies, spreading at an incredible speed.
In no time, many of the blood beasts were completely invaded by the curse poison, transforming into poison beasts.
Moreover, Ye Tian could control these poison beasts, showcasing the terrifying aspect of the Poison Curse Talent.
However, this was because these blood beasts were inherently weak, relying entirely on the blood river for their strength. The Poison Curse Talent was their nemesis.
“Any blood beast that approaches me, go and attack them!” Ye Tian commanded.
Thus, with the blood beasts under his control, Ye Tian continued his journey to retrieve the World Source Stone.
