649: Chapter 647 Deserving of Death!

When Chu Xuan first obtained the [Myriad Forms] skill, he did not feel it was particularly powerful, and it was not even as versatile as Heart Bewitchment.

Its ability to change did not have much effect for Chu Xuan.

Whether it was against the Azure Dragon back then, or Revelation later on, he was constantly being calculated and locked onto, so it had no effect at all.

However, as the skill Rank has increased, Chu Xuan has found it increasingly useful.

Changing his own species form, transforming life Aura, and obscuring Karma information—this has almost fundamentally achieved the effect of endless transformations.

Now that it has reached Rank 8, it is truly miraculous that he can even use this skill to affect people other than himself.

"My great Dominator, if you give me another 20,000 spirituality value and 5 rule fragments, I can raise this skill by another level, reaching the perfect level directly."

The Phantom Demon's voice was full of temptation at this moment: "Once you possess a max-Rank Myriad Forms, that is when you will truly be capable of endless transformations, omnipotent..."

"Omnipotent?" Chu Xuan chuckled and asked, "Can it replace the Final Phantom God?"

"Uh... one must not blaspheme the gods." The Phantom Demon laughed dryly, and after a long while, it squeezed out a sentence: "I'm sorry, I retract what I just said."

"My friend, I do not blame you. On the contrary, I will consider raising Myriad Forms to max Rank, but not now." Chu Xuan's expression remained normal. He knew that upgrading Myriad Forms through the Phantom Demon would inevitably make the other party stronger, which was no different from feeding a tiger with one's own body.

But compared to the strange consciousness within his body, the Phantom Demon undoubtedly seemed much cuter.

After all, the stronger the Phantom Demon was, the more likely he would be to harvest more spirituality value when killing it in the dream, which was his original plan anyway.

Now, it was just going with the flow.

Conversely, if the spirituality value harvested after killing the Phantom Demon in the next dream did not increase, he would directly abandon upgrading the Rank of [Myriad Forms].

Even if upgrading the skill Rank of True Authority could yield more exchangeable real attributes, Chu Xuan would not hesitate too much.

While lost in these thoughts, Chu Xuan had already arrived in front of a mountain range.

Looking down from above, this mountain had towering Peaks, with several small towns scattered around it.

At this moment, the night was fading, and the horizon was already showing a touch of white. In the small towns, families had already lit cooking fires, beginning their day's labor.

Compared to the withered bones and remains visible everywhere else, this place was simply a paradise.

Chu Xuan identified a direction and headed deep into the mountain range.

Before long, as Chu Xuan was about to step onto the ground and approach the foot of the main Peak, two men holding long halberds abruptly appeared silently in front of him.

"Stop!"

"This road is blocked, retreat immediately!"

The two men pointed their halberds directly at Chu Xuan and shouted sternly, but as soon as their words fell, they seemed to suddenly recognize Chu Xuan's identity, their faces filled with feigned surprise.

"Oh! It's Zhou Fan, it's our fault for being blind and failing to recognize you."

"Zhou Fan, didn't you lose to Young Alliance Leader Qi Yun and choose to leave? It hasn't been long, why have you returned?"

"Did you forget to take something? You only need to give an order, and we can do it for you..."

"Don't talk nonsense. Zhou Fan must have forgotten to take his few confidantes with him. How could we do that for him?"

"You're the one talking nonsense! Those few Heavenly Immortal-like heroines are in love with Young Alliance Leader Qi Yun and will be married in a few days. What does that have to do with Zhou Fan? You must not put Zhou Fan in an unjust position..."

"Right, right, right, I misspoke! After all, Zhou Fan was once a Young Alliance Leader. Although he has now been defeated by Young Alliance Leader Qi Yun, I imagine he wouldn't do such sordid things..."

The two spoke back and forth; on the surface, they appeared respectful, but their words were full of sarcasm, and their eyes were filled with mockery when they looked at Chu Xuan.

Chu Xuan's eyes flickered, and he instantly realized that the two men acting this way was less about humiliating Zhou Fan and more about declaring their stance in support of Qi Yun.

His expression was as calm as water. With his many experiences of life and death, he would long since not be emotionally moved by such matters.

Moreover, he was not Zhou Fan.

However, while adopting the role of Zhou Fan, although his face was calm, an irrepressible killing intent burst forth from his faint eyes.

Especially with the Slash contained within his body condensed but not released, he looked like a drawn sharp sword, revealing its edge.

Walking step by step, his speed was not fast, but every step he took left deep footprints, as if there were a volcano in his heart ready to erupt at any moment.

It was as if his arrival today was to wash away his past shame and take back everything that belonged to him.

Seeing this, the two halberd-wielding mountain guards could not help but stop their mocking words, looking over with solemn gazes, their expressions changing slightly.

"This... wasn't he seriously injured, with his cultivation almost entirely crippled?"

"No! This mountain-like bursting Aura is far from what it was before. I have only felt it from a few Hall Envoys... Could he have reached the Diyuan Realm of martial arts?"

Seeing Chu Xuan getting closer and closer, now only a few zhang away, the two men reacted.

At this moment, with Chu Xuan's footsteps, which appeared silent, every step landing on the ground felt like it was stepping on their hearts.

Cold sweat seeped from the two men's foreheads, their expressions changed repeatedly, and they took step after step backward.

They had thought that Zhou Fan had been defeated and fled, with his martial arts Realm less than one-tenth of what it was, just a stray dog who couldn't survive outside and had shamelessly returned.

Who would have thought that his strength would be even greater than before, and looking at this posture, he was here for revenge.

Regardless of whether he could ultimately defeat Qi Yun, just speaking of the current moment, the two of them would definitely not get off easily, and they couldn't help but feel regret.

"Hold on!"

Just at this moment, a young man wearing red armor, his whole body boiling with blood energy, walked out from behind the two and stood in front of them.

Seeing this, the two halberd-wielding mountain guards breathed a sigh of relief in unison and bowed: "Greetings, Hall Envoy Hong Yu."

Through his previous understanding of Zhou Fan and Tian Yong, Chu Xuan had basically figured out the situation of the Heavenly Dao Alliance; at least the identities of the Four Great Guardians and the Twelve Hall Envoys were already memorized in his heart.

The person before him was none other than Hall Envoy Hong Yu, who was in charge of discipline in the Heavenly Dao Alliance. He had once been a ruler of a country and possessed the martial arts cultivation of the Peak of the Diyuan Realm.

The red-armored young man waved his hand and asked coldly: "Zhou Fan, what is your intention in coming here?"

Chu Xuan did not answer but asked instead: "What is the punishment for subordinates offending their superiors and failing to respect the Young Alliance Leader?"

Hong Yu's expression sank slightly: "The two of them are performing their duty of guarding the mountain; what crime is there?"

Seeing Hall Envoy Hong Yu vouching for them, the two halberd-wielding mountain guards grinned, no longer having any fear.

"The crime is punishable by death!"

As the words fell, Chu Xuan's figure had already disappeared; with a direct teleportation, he had arrived behind the two mountain guards.

Crackle!

Chu Xuan did not even turn his head, but his body was already surrounded by dazzling lightning. As the electric arcs leaped, the two mountain guards died instantly, their entire bodies turning into charred remains.
