The Lord's Empire

“Go on, run! Keep running! You won’t be able to escape, nor will you be able to kill me. In the end, you’ll definitely die at my hands,” the monster continued to wildly laugh.

Zhao Fu felt quite angry and had no idea what was happening. This monster was unkillable and could not be sealed, and he could not escape either. This monster’s abilities were simply too strange.

Boom!

The monster exploded out with a terrifying aura and once again charged at Zhao Fu, ferociously stabbing out with its spear. A powerful spear light containing a sharp aura shot towards Zhao Fu.

Zhao Fu’s expression was cold as he vigorously slashed out with his sword, sending out a powerful black sword light towards the spear light. The sword light and spear light collided with a bang, resulting in an enormous explosion and causing light to shoot everywhere.

The monster rushed through the light and its spear became a massive snake as it bit toward Zhao Fu.

Zhao Fu blocked with his sword, but the snake contained great power and slammed towards him.

The monster loudly laughed and charged towards Zhao Fu, swiping with its sharp claws. Five arcs of light containing sharp power flew towards Zhao Fu, seeming to tear through space itself.

Zhao Fu continuously slashed out, destroying the incoming arcs of light, but the monster had closed the distance by now and clawed towards Zhao Fu’s heart.

Facing this attack, Zhao Fu had been tricked so many times, so he did not want to be fooled again. His sword gave off immense sword light, but he no longer slashed and instead swatted at it with his sword.

The monster was sent flying back and gave a strange laugh as its body turned into tiny particles before reappearing behind Zhao Fu.

Zhao Fu was given a big shock; he had never expected that the monster would be able to reassemble its body without him injuring it. The monster once again clawed at Zhao Fu’s heart, forcing him to dodge to the side. However, he was not fast enough and the sharp claws still stabbed into his back.

Blood flew everywhere and Zhao Fu endured the pain as he spun and once again swatted the monster away with his sword.

“Heheheh…” the monster once again gave an eerie laugh; it did not take Zhao Fu seriously at all, and it once again turned into particles and disappeared.

Seeing this, Zhao Fu warily looked around at his surroundings.

Suddenly, the monster once again reappeared behind Zhao Fu and clawed at him, but this time he expected this attack. He immediately spun and sent the monster flying with his sword.

However, in the next second, Zhao Fu felt an immense sense of danger from above. He hurriedly unleashed a black energy barrier – the monster could split into two, and one had been sent flying by Zhao Fu while the other had appeared above his head.

The monster above his head gave off terrifying power as its claws shined with immense light as it slashed towards Zhao Fu.

Bang!

The black energy barrier was hit by an immense force, as if a boulder had dropped onto it, smashing open a large crater. Fortunately, Zhao Fu had unleashed his barrier in time, or else this attack could have seriously injured him.

However, he was still injured and he once again coughed up blood, causing his aura to become even weaker.

“Hahaha…” the monster in the air loudly laughed before splitting into eight, which also laughed as well.

Zhao Fu felt quite startled; a single one of these monsters was difficult enough to deal with, and now that there were eight, he was truly in danger.

Swish, swish, swish…

The eight monsters savagely laughed and gave off powerful auras as they turned into rays of light and shot at Zhao Fu.

Zhao Fu could only dodge, and he turned into a ray of light as he tried to run away. However, in the next moment, the eight monsters turned into particles and disappeared.

Almost immediately, the first monster reappeared beside Zhao Fu, and Zhao Fu swatted it away. The second monster appeared in front of Zhao Fu, and he turned his sword and backhand swatted it away. As the third monster appeared, Zhao Fu kicked it away, but he could not react in time to the fourth one.

Bang!

Zhao Fu was sent flying by a kick from that monster and he crashed dozens of meters away. Blood sprayed out of his mouth as his expression became incredibly grim. He continuously tried to think just what kind of ability this monster had.

This monster was unkillable and unsealable, and now it could also create clones of itself and seemed to be able to control this place. Every time Zhao Fu almost left, he would somehow reappear here.

As such, Zhao Fu concluded that there were three possibilities. The first was that he was within some kind of barrier; the second was that he was within some kind of magic formation. After gathering information, he could conclude that it was not those two, which left the final possibility. Thinking about that, Zhao Fu’s gaze became sharp.

The eight monsters stood in the air and loudly laughed, “I already said that you’ll definitely die here, so why struggle and suffer? You can’t resist, so just die! I’ll definitely enjoy eating you.”

The monster wildly laughed and split into 16. The monsters once again turned into rays of light and savagely charged at Zhao Fu.

However, Zhao Fu did not move and his gaze was cold as he looked at the incoming monsters, making the monster feel quite startled, not understanding why Zhao Fu was just standing there and not moving. Could it be that Zhao Fu was allowing it to kill him? Thinking about that, the monsters’ smiles became even more savage.

Just as the monsters were about to reach Zhao Fu, and their sharp claws were about to reach his body, Zhao Fu gave a cold smile and lightly cried out, “Celestial Mode… activate!”

Boom!

An enormous explosion sounded out as Zhao Fu gave off an intense rainbow-colored light, making him look like a Celestial, and a shockwave blasted out from him.

A two meter wide, rainbow-colored ring of runes appeared around Zhao Fu, and Zhao Fu’s eyes gave off rainbow-colored light as a coin-sized rainbow magic formation appeared on his forehead.

Sensing this aura from Zhao Fu’s body, the monster’s expression fell and felt that Zhao Fu had discovered its greatest secret.

At that moment, Zhao Fu’s voice once again sounded out, “Celestial Eye… open!”

The rainbow magic formation on Zhao Fu’s forehead quickly spun as a rainbow-colored eye appeared, coldly and emotionlessly looking at the monster.

A wave of rainbow light spread out from the eye, and the scenery around Zhao Fu gradually changed. The blue sky, grass, trees, and creeks all disappeared, and they were replaced by a place with a withered and rotten aura, as well as a black sky.

This was the true appearance of the depths of the danger zone. Everything from before had been an illusion and was not real. That was the third possibility that Zhao Fu had considered, and such a powerful illusion could only be broken with the Celestial Mode.
