Chapter 294: Surreal Shadow Darkness Extent

Shadows writhed as Themur and Hong Haoyu were beaten back.

The Xiong clansman smiled as he caused shadows to form around his opponents: "Today is my lucky day; an intelligent beast that cultivates fire path, water path and blood path and a bearer of the Supreme Ice Physique. It is a pity that you both are of the demonic path"

Hong Haoyu scoffed at the words 'demonic path' but the man ignored it.

"I am sure" The man continued. "Wherever you two go, you will surely be unique. Why not hand yourselves over to me and turn to the righteous path?"

"Like hell we'd believe you!" Themur snorted as purple flames combusted all over his body. His size tripled and his aura became even more domineering. The clouds parted away from where he was and the sky became brighter.

If someone was to look from the ground at the moment, it would seem as if the sun had risen in a small patch of the sky.

Hong Haoyu used his rule path methods. Themur's strength surged even more and pillars of purple flames exploded from his body. Strong fire Qi and water Qi revolved around him.

The man did not seem to notice Themur's change. It was either that or that he did not care how strong Themur was. He rubbed his nose and smiled: "You have no other choice"

Immediately, Extent realm aura radiated strongly from the man that froze Themur and Hong Haoyu under the pressure.

Hong Haoyu was stunned that he could barely speak: "What… what is this pressure?"

His mind roared with danger signals and alarms that he should run but his body was transfixed with fear. It was like his senses could not perceive the extent to his opponent's strength.

Themur was the same, the flames on his body dimmed and his courage fell flat like a burst tire. His threatening demeanour flew out of the window as he froze in place.

Hong Haoyu could not understand why his body reacted like this. He was at the second tier of Original realm and his battle strength far surpassed his realm. He never expected to be so powerless before an Extent realm expert.

"Oh?" The man smiled. "Is this your first time of seeing an Extent realm expert? Good, let me show you a small trick"

Shadow Qi fruits were expended as shadow Essence flowed like a river. The surroundings changed rapidly as darkness took over the world.

The clouds melded into dark flat shapes and the world seemed to have become like a picture. There was no sense of a third dimension at all. [1]

Hong Haoyu could not see a thing at all but he knew that something had changed greatly.

He could not move a muscle and this time, it was not because he was scared. He knew the Xiong clansman was controlling his body. The same thing went for Themur.

"This is my Surreal Shadow Darkness Extent. Consider yourselves lucky, it has been many generations since I have revealed it last" The man's voice seemed to echo from everywhere. "Now, you will follow me to the Clan"

…..

Sharp screams reverberated through the air as female shrieks erupted from fear. White skulls flew around like ghastly souls, reaping the lives of all that they met.

Yu Er Dan watched in horror as three flying skulls fed on Yi Kexin, their lifeless eye sockets shining with a profound red light.

In a short amount of time, only bloody fragments of torn clothes served as testaments to Yi Kexin's life. She had been devoured alive by the flying skulls.

"Good" Makato said with a smile as he faced Yu Er Dan. "You're next"

"No!" Yu Er Dan paled in fright as she threw a punch at the nearest skull. Pale yellow strength Essence condensed into a fist which hurled itself at the skull. However, the fist passed through the skull before being consumed by the chaos energy from the walls.

The flying skull only stopped momentarily. Yu Er Dan's attack had negligible effects on it.

"It's no use" Yajima smiled. "Just accept your fate and die"

The flying skull flew towards Yu Er Dan under Makato's control as she backed up slowly before tripping over.

As the skull flew downwards to bite her, the space before it distorted and a hand grasped it firmly.

The crimson Vermillion True Flame burnt brightly from the hand, engulfing the flying skull at once.

"Shraaaaa!"

The flying skull screeched loudly but the hand did not seem to care. After a short moment, the flying skull was no more than small ashes that were consumed by the chaos energy.

"Lu Zheng!" Yu Er Dan exclaimed in joyful surprise. Her heart still throbbed frantically from the fear of almost being eaten alive.

"You're still alive" Makato's eyes dimmed slightly. "Even with your Vermillion True Flame, you can only be food to them"

Raising his right arm, Makato smiled: "Seal!"

His fore-eye twinkled and his bloodline power was expended. Yet, even after two whole seconds, nothing happened.

Lu Zheng returned the smile: "Old tricks don't work twice"
