"Eh, the curse is gone!"
The Cursed Demon Emperor could clearly sense that he had lost control of the Ghosthaunt curse. Curses were illusory and untraceable. The only thing that could remove curses was Martial Will. Soul power attacks were useless. Of course, apart from Martial Will, there were also some special treasures that could remove curses.
"Do you know who it is?"
The Lord Of Fear asked.
"It's Ye Chen, and there's a Human Demon with the Dark Witch's bloodline beside him." With the feedback of the curse power, the Cursed Demon Emperor already knew who was spying on him.
…
"This demon can actually use my gaze as a channel to transmit the curse. Even with my Destruction Sword Intent and Immortal Sword Intent, it's difficult to remove it at once. Only by combining it with the sharp aura of the Demon Slayer Sword can it be effective." Ye Chen's expression was very serious. He was not afraid of the opponent's curse, but it didn't mean that others were not. If the opponent was allowed to use it in a battle, the consequences would be unimaginable. Even if this kind of person's strength hadn't reached the Seven Star level, his threat had already reached the Seven Star level.
"Such a powerful curse?"
Although the Demon Flower Emperor didn't see the image of the Ghosthaunt just now, he could sense that Ye Chen was filled with an ominous aura.
Murong Qingcheng frowned and said, "Although I don't really understand the principle of the curse, my Dark Witch's bloodline is very sensitive in this aspect. The way the curse spreads seems to be through telepathy."
"Yes and no."
Ye Chen shook his head and said, "Telepathy is only an external phenomenon. To be more precise, curses are soul poisons that take root in the soul. There is a saying, 'believe it, believe it, don't believe it, don't have it'. Once the curse takes root in the soul, your subconscious will believe it to be true, even if you say you don't believe it. As for the ways of transmission, there are many. As long as there is a slight connection, there is a chance of being cursed. For example, eye contact, body contact. Some people are cursed without even knowing it, but it will still be a horrifying disaster, because their souls have already sunk into it without them knowing."
The human world was a big dye vat, and the soul was full of dust. One day, when the soul was crystal clear and free from the dust, there would be no disasters and the so-called curses would be nothing more than floating clouds.
It was naturally impossible for Ye Chen's soul to reach this level, so he had to rely on his sword intent to expel it.
"This devil must be the first to die."
Ye Chen's eyes flashed with a fiery killing intent. He was sure that if he didn't kill the Cursed Demon Emperor first, Elysium would fall completely.
"I'll help you."
Murong Qingcheng also felt that the threat of the Cursed Demon Emperor was far greater than the other Demons.
…
The Demons' invasion into Elysium was no longer a secret. All the Astral Reaching and above martial artists knew about it.
Ocean Gazing was a very small region on the border of Eastern and Southern Regions. Nowadays, the ordinary people who had been living in Ocean Gazing for generations had all migrated away. Those who remained were basically Astral Reaching experts and Sea of Soul realm experts. Every day, a large number of Astral Reaching experts and Sea of Soul realm experts would rush over.
The reason why so many Astral Reaching and Sea of Soul realm martial artists were gathered here was because this place would become a battlefield, a battlefield that would decide the future of Elysium.
The True Spirit Continent was incomparably vast. If the Demons wanted to take over the continent, they wouldn't be able to kill wherever they went. A mere two million army would be nothing more than a drop of water in the ocean. Even if they killed until the next year, they wouldn't be able to kill all the high level martial artists of the continent. Therefore, as long as the continent decided to set the battlefield as the Ocean Gazing, the Demons would definitely do so. Since the ancient times, the battles between Elysium and the alien races would always be set in one place. If one side was defeated, the battlefront would be stretched out until it covered the whole world.
"Lynch, let's see who can kill more Demons this time."
On top of a small hill in the Ocean Gazing, dozens of people were gathered. These people were from the Windy Nation, and they were not very old. Judging from their appearance, they didn't seem to be more than thirty years old. The one who spoke was Chen Haoran from the Falling Dust Sword Master. His current cultivation had already reached the second level of Life and Death Challenge. In the entire Windy Nation, besides the only Life and Death Realm warrior, Ye Chen, there was only one other person who could compete with him, and that was North Snow Martial School's Lynch.
"If it is a battle, I might not be able to beat you. But, in terms of killing, you are not as good as me."
Lynch said with his arms crossed in front of his chest.
"Hehe, that might not be the case."
Zhang Haoran laughed.
"Hey, you two, don't treat us like we don't exist. After all, I used to be stronger than you two." Lou Hanshan, who was standing next to North Snow Young Master Su Wen, said helplessly.
"You … How old are you? Why are you still fighting for this?"
Not far away, Zhu Mei, who was talking with a couple of women, teased her husband.
The two had been married for many years. Even if they were to die, they would die together. There was no reason for them to risk their lives for others while they hid in a corner and tried to survive.
Of course, there were people like that. But, these cowards would live in the shadows for the rest of their lives. They would lose their dignity and the essence of a martial artist.
"Brother Zhang, let's have a battle as well. Let's see if you can kill more Sea of Souls Realm Demons or I can kill more Astral Reaching Realm Demons." Ye Xuan walked over with a smile on his face.
Zhang Haoran shook his head and said with a bit of worry, "I really don't know why your brother would let you come." As a second level Life and Death Challenge warrior, Zhang Haoran had the ability to protect himself, so he would not be killed in a short period of time. On the other hand, Ye Xuan was only at Early Astral Reaching Realm, which could be considered as cannon fodder. Allowing Ye Xuan to come would not be a big deal, but Ye Xiaoxiao had also come. This little girl had never killed anyone before, so she was very kind.
Ye Xuan said seriously, "My brother said that without the determination to die, there is no hope of winning."
Hearing him, everyone on the hill went silent.
Indeed, since the Demons dared to come, they must have a high chance of winning. If they did not have the determination to die, then they should not have come. They were just talking and laughing before to relieve the pressure.
"The determination to die?"
The former Emerald Prince, Zhuang Fei, raised his head and looked at the sky.
Ye Chen, the little genius from back then, had left him behind since a long time ago. However, as time went by, he had matured and forgotten a lot of things. He believed that Ye Chen had forgotten him as well. Originally, they would not have any interaction in this life. However, this battle had connected them together, because they were both fighting for Elysium.
"Leader, why don't we also compete to see who can kill more people?" On the side, the former Palm Absolute, Liu Wuxiang, smiled and said to Zhuang Fei.
"Sure!"
Zhuang Fei also smiled, his face glowing.
"Eh? Isn't that sister Ji?"
Liu Wuxiang's gaze fell on the corner of the hill. There, a lonely figure was standing there. It was the former disciple of the Emerald Martial Palace, Ji Xueyan. She had left the Emerald Martial Palace a long time ago, and no one knew where she went.
"Don't disturb her. Perhaps, she just wants to see someone. Maybe, she just wants to free herself." Zhuang Fei shook his head, stopping Liu Wuxiang from going over to greet her.
Smiling bitterly, Liu Wuxiang did not go over.
Zhang Haoran, Luo Hanshan, Zhu Mei and the others also saw Ji Xueyan. They all knew about the things that happened between Ye Chen and Ji Xueyan. They could only sigh at the impermanence of the world.
"This child, after so many years, she is still alone!"
Ye Tianhao and Shen Yuqing also came. Shen Yuqing's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but walk over.
"Snow Goose."
Shen Yuqing reached out his hand and gently held Ji Xueyan in his arms.
Ji Xueyan didn't struggle, she said with a trembling voice, "Aunt Qing!"
"Good girl, I thought I would never see you again."
Shen Yuqing couldn't help but shed tears.
Raising her head, Ji Xueyan's eyes were wet. "Don't you blame me?"
"You are still young. Speaking of which, your mother and I are also at fault. We shouldn't have arranged the engagement between you and Chen Er. If we didn't do that, you and Chen Er might have ended up together instead."
Back then, Shen Yuqing was indeed very angry. He felt that Ye Chen had been humiliated. However, as time went by, all that was left were the beautiful memories. Speaking of which, Ji Xueyan wasn't a bad person. She just did something inappropriate at the wrong time. There was no reason for her to carry that burden for the rest of her life because of one mistake.
"Aunt Qing, I have already thought it through. You don't have to worry about me."
Ji Xueyan smiled. Her eyes were a little absent-minded. In her mind, images of Ye Chen kept appearing. She never knew that a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy could be so mature. In front of him, she was so childish. Perhaps it was because of this that she couldn't let go?
"It's good that you have thought it through. Everything is in the past. Now, let's fight for Elysium together!"
…
More and more high level warriors gathered at the Ocean Gazing Region. Although they weren't gathered together, waves of powerful aura still caused the clouds in the sky to change.
Many of Ye Chen's acquaintances had arrived. Tuo Baku, Li Daoxuan, Bing Ling, Yan Chihuo, Li Xiaoyun and Jing Aoxuan from the Southern Region Martial Tea Gathering, Hai Wuya from the Sky Martial Region, as well as some people who had grudges with Ye Chen, such as Sikong Sheng. There were too many of them. They had witnessed Ye Chen's growth, and they had interacted with Ye Chen for a period of time.
Whether it was grudges or hatred, everyone had temporarily forgotten about it. Right now, they were all fighting for Elysium, fighting for themselves.
Buzz!
In the sky, the figures of Life and Death Kings started to appear.
One, two, three …
More and more Life and Death Kings appeared.
Below, everyone's gazes couldn't help but fall on them.
The final outcome of this battle would still be decided by the Life and Death Kings. If the Life and Death Kings of Elysium lost, then no matter how they struggled, they would not be able to escape the fate of being enslaved.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Another three figures appeared, standing in front of all the Life and Death Kings. The one in the middle seemed to have become the center of the world the moment he appeared, because everyone was paying attention to him. Even the Life and Death Kings were no exception. He was very young, only in his early twenties. However, unknowingly, he had become the spiritual pillar of Elysium. His legendary glory made him have no choice but to shoulder the pressure of the entire world.
He was Ye Chen!
