Divine God Against The Heavens Chapter 1131 Ch 1131: Bloodline Ability: Casual Punishment
Previously on Divine God Against The Heavens...
Queen realized the situation was far graver than she had ever anticipated. Otherwise, Ye Xiao wouldn’t have urged her to flee in such a manner.
But what of Ye Xiao himself?
Why wasn’t he fleeing too, and instead ordering her to escape?
Queen quickly inquired: “What about you?”
“Don’t worry about me, just go. I’ve got my own escape plan. I’ll only hold off the enemy a bit to buy you some time to get away!” Ye Xiao responded swiftly. He kept silent about how his next move could lead to his body exploding and causing his demise.
Queen was about to speak further when she detected a dreadful aura surging toward them like a raging tempest. Fear gripped her completely. Never before had she encountered such a fearsome presence.
It surpassed anything she could have conceived.
Only at that instant did she grasp the caliber of foe Ye Xiao intended to confront.
Though unaware of Ye Xiao’s exact power, the aura she just felt was unprecedented—even compared to the blast from a massive Chaos army comprising innumerable Fake Divine Gods and True Divine Gods. Truly horrifying.
How could Ye Xiao possibly halt such a foe single-handedly?
Upon sensing that petrifying aura, Queen’s initial instinct was to bolt from the area. Yet she forced herself to steady her nerves and halt for Ye Xiao, urging, “Quick, let’s leave together. You can’t linger here. You’re no match for him!”
Ye Xiao shook his head and clarified: “If I flee now, the Heavens will be doomed. I can’t allow harm to come to the Heavens—my family remains there.”
He paused briefly, as though pondering, then added: “Go now. You can sense how monstrous this enemy is. Staying would offer me no aid; you’d only be a liability I can’t bear right now. Just flee, run!”
For the first time across the countless eras of her existence, tears welled in Queen’s eyes, filling her with utter helplessness—so much so that she yearned to instantly boost her power to effortlessly aid Ye Xiao.
But lacking that strength currently, she had no option but to nod in agreement. Remaining would merely burden him.
Time was running critically short, so she prepared to depart at once.
Yet before going, she imprinted a mark upon Ye Xiao’s body and declared: “While this mark endures on you, it signifies you live, and we may reunite someday. Should calamity befall you, I’ll detect it, and this mark will convey my final glimpse of events here. I vow, if disaster strikes, I, Zhiwu Nuwang, the Queen, will avenge you!”
Ye Xiao smiled without refusing. He nodded and said “OK” with a warm grin. That smile held such allure, yet to Queen, it seemed Ye Xiao was forcing it merely to see her off—as if it were his final act for her.
Queen departed without glancing back, though Ye Xiao spotted tears glistening at her eyes’ edges, stirring an inexplicable ache in his heart.
From the outset of his journey up to his ascension into the Divine Realm, he had journeyed alongside Queen. It was only upon reaching the Divine Realm that they parted, and with that, their emotional and mental bonds frayed.
Ye Xiao watched her retreating figure for ages until she vanished entirely from sight.
At that juncture, the Lotus of Chaos within his universe had swelled to mountainous heights. It teetered on the brink of full bloom.
This moment proved utterly pivotal. Only if the Lotus of Chaos blossomed could Ye Xiao gain the might to challenge a foe like the Being of Chaos. Failure to bloom spelled certain doom for him.
Chaos Energy poured ceaselessly into his form, fortifying both his universe’s foundation and his Heavenly Demon Bloodline.
No, hold on! Another entity voraciously consumed the Chaos Energy, growing ever more potent. It was Ye Xiao’s Universe Essence Flame, the White Flame that concluded the Devil’s tale.
While Ye Xiao intently monitored the ongoing transformations within himself, a supremely terrifying energy suddenly engulfed him, accompanied by a presence looming at his rear.
He turned gradually, beholding a figure clad in white robes hovering in the void, gazing at him with icy detachment.
This figure’s features remained hidden, his form shrouded entirely in white garments. Even his face was bound in white wrappings like a mummy’s. Solely his blood-red eyes were visible.
Ye Xiao sensed himself eyed by a monstrous entity of unfathomable power. The terror was overwhelming.
This foe operated on a completely superior level compared to the Devil he had confronted earlier. Ye Xiao stood absolutely no chance against him. A deep-seated terror emerging from the core of his soul etched itself across his face, forcing him to stumble. His instincts screamed to escape with his life, yet he bit his lips until blood flowed, compelling his legs to halt through sheer determination.
He repeatedly warned himself against fleeing. Should he coward away at this moment, the Heavens would face utter destruction.
Back then, he could never absolve himself for the loss of his family, comrades, and innumerable innocent lives!
"I can sense the blood of my descendent on you. So you are the one who killed my children?"
A spine-chilling voice abruptly reverberated in Ye Xiao's ears, leaving him disoriented, as though a colossal bell tolled directly before him.
That voice by itself drenched Ye Xiao in cold sweat. It was utterly petrifying.
Ye Xiao remained silent, and the foe required no confirmation whatsoever. He already possessed the truth.
Before Ye Xiao could recover, the man spoke once more: "Since that is the case, I will first kill you before destroying your universe."
"It is just that I never expected a person from a tiny Source Universe to be so powerful to actually transcend. This is really unbelievable and interesting!"
Ye Xiao offered no retort to the white-robed man. Truth be told, he lacked the power to even part his lips and speak. At this instant, an oppressive force heavier than a whole world bore down upon him.
Regardless of Ye Xiao's might within the Heavens, the Ye Xiao now positioned in the Void of Chaos resembled a mere insect. He found himself back at that humble starting point from his days in the Azure Dragon Country, pushing to grow stronger and avenge his father-figure's demise.
He attempted to extend his Divine Sense, only to be stunned when the Divine Sense that once enveloped the full universe failed to span even a thousand miles in the Void. In fact, it barely reached under a hundred miles, leaving Ye Xiao profoundly shaken.
"You could die now!"
The man in white showed no desire to prolong the conversation with Ye Xiao. He acted swiftly, directing his finger straight at him.
Ye Xiao witnessed terrifying shards of Chaos Energy condensing at the tip of the man's finger. This power radiated a devastating presence potent enough to obliterate the entire Source Universe.
He was well aware he couldn't rival this fresh adversary, yet he needed to strike immediately or perish without resistance.
His gaze fell upon the Lotus of Chaos, teetering on the edge of full bloom, and he let out a sigh. Then, he transmitted a message to the Lotus of Chaos: "If I die here, I hope, you could save my universe and let it become another Source Universe of Chaos!"
Once Ye Xiao delivered those words, he lifted his hand skyward before slamming it downward.
"Casual Punishment!"
Casual Punishment represented the bloodline power Ye Xiao acquired from the Bloodline of Calamity. This marked the inaugural occasion he unleashed this technique. He yearned to witness firsthand its might and whether it could fell the enemy.
