Chapter 1373 – Distant Summons

God Eye Duplication: Soul-Annihilating Roar!

A pitch-black tornado suddenly charged out and engulfed the Ancient Soul Hall trio.

One could see the peak Rank Eight Ancient God’s soul body immediately being swept up into the tornado and crushed to pieces, transformed into energy for the tornado that only increased its power. The Ancient Soul Hall’s Rank Nine Ancient God had long ago sensed this tornado, but it was impossible to dodge, so he could only do his utmost to resist.

“How could this be!? That’s my secret art!” Ancient God Jailsea was dumbfounded.

But in the face of this mortal peril, he could only activate his secret soul defense arts. Dark streams of water began to flow across his body.

Boom! Swoosh!

The pitch-black tornado swept through the Ancient Soul Hall group and rumbled off into the distance.

Thump!

The bodies of the peak Rank Eight and Rank Nine Ancient Gods of Ancient Soul Hall dropped to the ground. Their souls had already been dragged out by the tornado and pulverized until nothing was left. Only Ancient God Jailsea remained, his watery and black soul body floating in the sky, appearing extremely dim and weak.

After all, the Soul-Annihilating Roar was his supreme skill – his trump card – so he was extremely familiar with its principles and knew how to counter it.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

In a gust of wind, that energy that suppressed everything dispersed like a puff of smoke. In the distance, Xin Wuheng, his face showing signs of fatigue, began to shrink.

Using God Lord power placed an enormous burden on his body. Even the slightest negligence while controlling it would have caused tremendous damage to his foundation.

“You…” Ancient God Jailsea stared at Xin Wuheng in fear. Just now, Xin Wuheng was able to control the power of a God Lord, causing him to be heavily wounded.

“How do you know my secret soul technique?” Ancient God Jailsea darkly stared at Zhao Feng.

After using the power of a God Lord, Xin Wuheng was extremely weak. All Ancient God Jailsea would’ve needed to do was wait for the moment to strike. However, Zhao Feng utilized some sort of method to use his own supreme skill against him.

None of the Ancient Soul Hall trio had predicted this. Caught off guard, two of the Ancient Soul Hall members lost their lives while Ancient God Jailsea’s soul was badly wounded. At present, he only had around forty percent of his peak strength at most.

“What’s going on here?” Ancient God Resplendence and Ancient God Sundermount were frozen to the spot, their minds blank.

Too much had happened just now, all of it too unbelievable. First, there was Ancient God Jailsea’s supreme lethal technique meant to take Xin Wuheng’s life, and then Xin Wuheng erupted with hidden God Lord energy that intimidated the world and halted Ancient God Jailsea’s group in their tracks. After that, Zhao Feng suddenly used Ancient God Jailsea’s secret technique and wiped out two of the three members of the Ancient Soul Hall team.

Whoosh!

The silver Eye of Heaven in the sky vanished.

The amount of energy consumed by the God Eye Duplication depended on what was being duplicated, and duplicating the killing move of a half-step God Lord did not come at a small cost.

“You’re not worried about your own life, but about something like this?” Zhao Feng looked at Ancient God Jailsea and smiled.

“Haha, even if you’ve killed the two of them, the strength of your entire group still isn’t enough to deal with this old man!” Ancient God Jailsea was stunned at first, but then he loudly laughed.

Firstly, he was a half-step God Lord of the Ancient Soul Race, so he was the fastest of those present. Secondly, Xin Wuheng had just finished using the power of a God Lord, so he wouldn’t be able to exert much strength in the coming battle. And even though he didn’t know how Zhao Feng had duplicated his secret skill, it was definitely at no small cost, so his strength had probably plunged as well. As for Ancient God Resplendence and Ancient God Sundermount, he wasn’t worried about them at all.

“Kill!” Zhao Feng growled.

The three members of the Giant God Race immediately moved out. They loathed Ancient Soul Hall far more than Zhao Feng.

Zhao Feng and the other three charged at Ancient God Jailsea.

“Tribulation Lightning Eye Flame!” Zhao Feng circulated Tribulation Lightning power and unleashed a bolt of lightning-flame.

Ancient God Jailsea was still extremely weak, and his abilities to sense and resist had both been weakened, so he was struck directly by Zhao Feng’s Tribulation Lightning Eye Flame. Moreover, the power of the Tribulation Lightning Eye Flame depended on the strength of the Tribulation Lightning and the amount. It had little to do with Soul Intent or Eye Intent.

“Hissss!” Ancient God Jailsea hissed in pain, a hint of alarm on his face. The eye-bloodline technique Zhao Feng used just now was barely weaker than it was before.

“Blazing Wind Finger!” Xin Wuheng flew over and thrust out his finger.

Even without using the Giant God Race bloodline, he was still very strong, and coupled with his profound understanding, his attacks could still deal significant damage.

Boom! Bang! Crash!

On the other side, Ancient God Resplendence and Ancient God Sundermount unleashed countless palms of energy at Ancient God Jailsea.

“Damn…!” Ancient God Jailsea’s face twisted into a nasty grimace.

With the death of his two team members and his own heavy injuries, he could no longer deal with Zhao Feng and Xin Wuheng. However, Ancient God Jailsea was unwilling to leave because he did not want to admit that he had failed. This was the third time he had failed, and this could no longer be considered a mere loss, but a miserable defeat – a complete mess!

But given how he was outnumbered, if Ancient God Jailsea continued to fight, he would definitely be at a disadvantage.

“This old man will get his revenge!” Ancient God Jailsea clenched his teeth and began to flee.

“Haha, Ancient God Jailsea, haven’t you forgotten something?” Zhao Feng suddenly laughed.

“Oh no!” Ancient God Jailsea suddenly paled.

Thwish!

A white flash of light appeared in front of him and then began to rapidly charge at him.

“Kill, kill you!” Ancient God Cheng Yun, his face savage and wrathful, immediately appeared in front of Ancient God Jailsea.

Swooosh!

Several white blades of energy swept through Ancient God Jailsea’s body. In addition, a strange ripple of energy appeared around him, causing him to move more slowly.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

At this moment, Zhao Feng and the members of the Giant God Race arrived as well.

Ancient God Jailsea was instantly engulfed in a variety of energies.

“You…!” Ancient God Jailsea’s face twisted into a nasty grimace.

Originally, he believed that, even if he couldn’t do anything to Zhao Feng or Xin Wuheng, they couldn’t do anything to him either. With his speed, it should have been extremely easy to escape. Alas, Ancient God Jailsea had forgotten about the vexing scoundrel that was Ancient God Cheng Yun.

“Damn, I can only ask for help!” Ancient God Jailsea’s face was ghastly pale.

For a half-step God Lord to be forced to seek aid against a pack of Rank Nine and Rank Eight Ancient Gods was one of the most humiliating moments in Ancient God Jailsea’s life. But with Ancient God Cheng Yun present, he simply couldn’t escape. If this continued, the injuries to his soul would only worsen until it would eventually become impossible for him to ever become a God Lord.

Ancient God Jailsea immediately used the message token to ask for help from the other half-step God Lord and Yu Heng.

…

“A request for help?” When Yu Heng received the message, he immediately stopped, his face growing cold.

“Which team is it that entered a dangerous region of this dimension and is asking for your help?” Ancient God Destruction Flow asked.

After all, this dimension was covered in treasures. Even a half-step God Lord would be unable to resist the allure of some of the more precious ones.

While searching for Xin Wuheng’s location, the other teams were definitely also gathering up precious resources. Ancient God Destruction Flow was accompanying Yu Heng, so he could only follow Yu Heng in search of the Ancient God Seal. Otherwise, he would have also gathered up the precious resources that he needed, putting the mission to the side.

“Ancient Soul Hall’s Ancient God Jailsea’s team. They found Xin Wuheng’s group, but he was defeated and had no other option except to ask for help!” A chilling smile appeared on Yu Heng’s cold face.

Yu Heng particularly emphasized the words “Ancient Soul Hall.”

Before entering this place, God Lord Stellar Aspect emphasized again and again that Yu Heng’s commands had to be obeyed, or else the other party would have to bear the consequences. But in the end, the members of Ancient Soul Hall had not done as God Lord Stellar Aspect told.

“How could that be? Ancient God Jailsea’s team was defeated?” Ancient God Destruction Flow was taken aback. Although he hoped to see Ancient God Jailsea defeated, this sort of defeat was too absurd.

The other member of the team, a peak Rank Eight Ancient God, also found this rather hard to believe. Ancient God Jailsea’s team had actually been defeated and was seeking help from the other teams?

“Let’s go over!” Ancient God Destruction Flow had a rather excited expression.

Xin Wuheng and his team had just finished fighting a major battle with Ancient God Jailsea’s team, so they were undoubtedly tired and exhausted to the extreme. If they hurried over, they would have the absolute advantage and be able to end things once and for all! And he could even make fun of Ancient God Jailsea.

“The distance is rather far….” Yu Heng softly said.

Could it be that that Destiny energy intentionally guided me to this place?  Yu Heng’s expression darkened as he thought to himself. He didn’t have this feeling earlier, but now, after linking together the current situation with many other details, he noticed this point.

…

Meanwhile, Zhao Feng and the Giant God Race members were pursuing Ancient God Jailsea.

“You… will all die wretched deaths!” Ancient God Jailsea’s body was extremely dim, and he was in a haggard state. He could only circulate defensive techniques to reduce the damage he took.

Suddenly, Zhao Feng stopped.

“Let’s go, fall back,” Zhao Feng flatly replied.

“Why?” Ancient God Resplendence immediately asked. They had the advantage right now, and if they continued chasing, they even had a chance of killing Ancient God Jailsea. Why did they have to retreat now?

“There might be other Ancient Soul Hall experts in this dimension,” Zhao Feng straightforwardly said.

Ancient God Jailsea was extremely anxious earlier, but now, he had suddenly calmed down. There had to be a reason for this.

These words alarmed the Giant God Race members. There was a high chance that Zhao Feng was right. If other experts from Ancient Soul Hall arrived, they would be in no state to fight them.

As for Ancient God Cheng Yun, he had completely lost his mind. If they tried to stop him, they might up end up suffering a counterattack and become his main target instead.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Zhao Feng’s group suddenly retreated.

“They actually ran?” Ancient God Jailsea’s expression darkened.

His reinforcements were about to arrive soon, but Zhao Feng’s group suddenly ran off. His injuries were even worse now, so he was in no state to stop them. And besides, Ancient God Cheng Yun was still doggedly pursuing him.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, an icy energy that could chill the soul came from the distance. Three figures slowly emerged, their leader cloaked in ice and snow, only exposing her cold and elegant face.

“Ancient God Ice Jade!” Ancient God Jailsea rejoiced.

“Jailsea, I didn’t think that you would be so careless as to be beaten up so badly,” Ancient God Ice Jade flatly spoke as she turned her gaze to Ancient God Cheng Yun.

The soul-penetrating chill traveled deep into Ancient God Cheng Yun’s body, seemingly clearing his mind somewhat. Ancient God Ice Jade was also a half-step God Lord, and the menace and pressure she brought with her were even more intense than Ancient God Jailsea at his peak.

“Your bodies also have their smell!” Ancient God Cheng Yun, his face furious and gloomy, paused in the air.

He was now facing two half-step God Lords, but Ancient God Cheng Yun still did not immediately retreat. One could see just how much he loathed the members of Ancient Soul Hall.

Suddenly, Ancient God Cheng Yun’s expression flickered, more than half of his rage vanishing.

“Come here, over here!” A summoning voice that came from his soul transcended spacetime to resound in the Thought Body’s mind.

This summoning voice was extremely warm and familiar, and it made the Thought Body inside Ancient God Cheng Yun extremely clear-minded and made it urgently want to answer this summons.
