764: Chapter 764 Lu Xueqi and Biyao (143)

The black patterns on the altar instantly dimmed, and the evil power it emitted also weakened significantly.

But just then, a huge black figure suddenly emerged from within the altar. This figure was tall, its body wreathed in dense, evil Qi, with no expression on its face. Its eyes were pitch black, radiating cold killing intent. This figure was none other than the Nether Guardian protecting the black altar, its strength having reached the Late Stage of the Soul Transformation Stage, even more powerful than Su Han.

"Audacious Mortal, how dare you destroy the Nether Altar! You are courting death!" The Nether Guardian let out a cold roar, its voice hoarse like metal scraping against metal, which was hair-raising. It suddenly raised its hand, condensing a huge black devil claw, and swiped it towards Su Han and Fairy Yuehua. The devil claw was wreathed in dense, evil power, exuding a terrifying aura.

"Careful!" Su Han shouted, pulling Fairy Yuehua's hand as they quickly dodged. The black devil claw struck the ground, emitting an earth-shattering boom. A huge deep pit was gouged into the ground, and the surrounding black trees were snapped one after another, with gravel flying everywhere.

"This guy's strength is so strong! It has actually reached the Late Stage of the Soul Transformation Stage!" Fairy Yuehua's expression tightened, a hint of surprise in her tone. She and Su Han, one at the Middle Stage of the Soul Transformation Stage and the other at the Early Stage, were clearly at a disadvantage facing the Nether Guardian at the Late Stage of the Soul Transformation Stage.

Su Han nodded, a trace of gravity flashing in his eyes, but he did not retreat in the slightest. "That's right, his strength is very strong, but we cannot retreat. If we cannot destroy this altar, the Disciples behind us will be continuously consumed by the Yinsha Puppets. By then, not only will we be unable to find the fragments of the Seal method, but we will also fall into danger. Let us join forces; even if he is at the Late Stage of the Soul Transformation Stage, we may not necessarily be unable to defeat him!"

"Alright!" Fairy Yuehua nodded, a glimmer of determination flashing in her eyes. "Let's attack together, kill him, and destroy the altar!"

Before the words had even faded, the two figures flashed and simultaneously charged towards the Nether Guardian. Su Han held the chaos sword, unleashing the Chaos Sword Technique to its limit. Streaks of golden Chaos Sword Qi, like a rainstorm, attacked the Nether Guardian. Each streak of Sword Qi contained the power to purify everything, continuously eroding the evil Qi on the Nether Guardian's body. Fairy Yuehua, holding the Moonlight Sword, moved nimbly, constantly circling to the back of the Nether Guardian to launch attacks. Streaks of white Moonlight Sword Qi precisely struck the Nether Guardian's vital points, restraining its movements.

The Nether Guardian snorted coldly, a trace of disdain flashing in its eyes. It waved its black devil claw continuously, shooting streaks of black Devilish Qi towards Su Han and Fairy Yuehua. At the same time, a powerful evil power erupted from its body, forming a black barrier that blocked the two's attacks.

"Boom!" Su Han's Chaos Sword Qi and Fairy Yuehua's Moonlight Sword Qi collided with the black barrier, emitting a deafening boom. The black barrier trembled violently, and cracks appeared, but it was ultimately not broken. Su Han and Fairy Yuehua were knocked back several steps by the shockwave, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and their internal Spiritual Qi was also significantly depleted.

"Petty tricks!" The Nether Guardian sneered. The black devil claw in its hand condensed once more, swiping towards Su Han and Fairy Yuehua with even greater speed and power than before.

A look of determination flashed in Su Han's eyes. He knew that to defeat the Nether Guardian, he had to use greater power. He took a deep breath, and his Chaos Spiritual Power, Power of the Dao Heart, Green Lotus Power, and the Origin power of his Chaos Dao Body all erupted. The golden light around him became increasingly dazzling, even overshadowing the Nether Guardian's evil Qi. At this moment, his cultivation base even faintly showed signs of breaking through to the Late Stage of the Soul Transformation Stage.

"Chaos Sword Technique — Chaos Heaven and Earth!" Su Han shouted. He held the chaos sword high, and golden Chaos Spiritual Power, Power of the Dao Heart, Green Lotus Power, and the Origin power of Heaven and Earth continuously converged on the tip of the sword, forming a huge golden sword blade. Chaos Qi swirled on the blade, emitting an ancient and terrifying power. The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi of the entire forest was frantically converging towards the sword blade, replenishing its power.

Fairy Yuehua also felt the powerful energy erupting from Su Han. She no longer held back, and all the Moonlight Power within her erupted. Her Moonlight Sword burst with dazzling white light, and a huge white Moonlight Sword blade condensed, coordinating with Su Han's golden sword blade to strike towards the Nether Guardian.

Seeing this, the Nether Guardian's eyes flashed with a hint of wariness and disbelief. It could feel that these two sword blades contained extremely terrifying power, enough to threaten its life. However, it did not retreat. Instead, it violently circulated the evil power within its body, increasing the power of its black devil claw once more, and swiped it towards the two sword blades, attempting to block their attack.

"Boom!" The golden sword blade, the white sword blade, and the black devil claw collided simultaneously, emitting an earth-shaking boom. A powerful shockwave instantly spread out, causing the entire forest to tremble violently. Countless trees were snapped, and the ground was smashed into countless deep pits. The golden Chaos Power and the white Moonlight Power continuously devoured and purified the black evil power, and the black devil claw was slowly dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The Nether Guardian let out a shrill scream. It could feel its evil power being rapidly purified, the power within its body constantly draining away, and its body being purified bit by bit. It was unwilling to accept this, wanting to condense its power once more to perish together with Su Han and Fairy Yuehua, but its efforts were all in vain.

"Nether Guardian, you guard the evil altar and harm living beings. Today, I shall act on behalf of the heavens, slay you, and destroy the altar!" Su Han said coldly. The golden sword blade in his hand struck with renewed force towards the Nether Guardian. Fairy Yuehua also exerted force at the same time, driving her white Moonlight Sword blade towards the Nether Guardian's chest.

"Ah—!" The Nether Guardian let out one final scream as its body and Divine Soul were completely purified by the golden Chaos Power and white Moonlight Power, turning into wisps of black smoke and dissipating into the air.

After resolving the Nether Guardian, Su Han and Fairy Yuehua could no longer hold on. Their bodies went limp, and they collapsed to the ground, spitting out large amounts of blood, their internal Spiritual Qi almost completely exhausted. However, they did not rest, but instead struggled to climb up from the ground and walked towards the black altar.

"We must destroy this altar as soon as possible; otherwise, more Yinsha Puppets will be birthed." (End of Chapter)
