Darkness filled the air, turning into thousands of branches that covered the sky and blocked the sun, forming a dark domain that suppressed and sealed everything. Chen Zong was trapped in it.
Unless one's strength exceeded Shu Muyuan's own, once trapped, one would not be able to escape. In the end, one would either be killed or suppressed. However, Chen Zong's strength at this moment was extremely tyrannical, directly breaking the boundary of Demon King and reaching the level of Demon Emperor. Shu Muyuan's expression changed greatly, and he could no longer maintain his previous calmness.
Although Shu Muyuan's strength could reach an astonishing height in a short period of time by fully activating the power of the Eternal Darkness Tree's bloodline, it was enough to surpass the Demon King level and infinitely close to the Demon Emperor level. It was enough to contend with a Demon Emperor level for a period of time, but it did not mean that he could really fight a Demon Emperor level.
However, Shu Muyuan did not panic. He immediately retracted thousands of branches and intertwined them into a tree wall, blocking the advance of Chen Zong's sword-light.
The sword-light slashed with irresistible force, as if nothing in the world could stop it.
The extremely tough branches were cut off one after another under the sword-light's advance, as if layers of curtains were being torn apart, revealing the truth behind the curtains.
Retreat!
Shu Muyuan made a prompt decision, immediately ending the power of the Eternal Darkness Tree's bloodline, and quickly retreated. Facing a Demon Emperor level powerhouse, he did not want to fight.
Chen Zong had a smile on his face. His eyes were extremely sharp, and the Heavenly Will Sword carried an unparalleled sword intent as it slashed across the sky without mercy.
Seeing Shu Muyuan again, Chen Zong made up his mind to kill him and extract the Eternal Darkness Tree's bloodline. Although he was not very clear about the level of Shu Muyuan's bloodline, Chen Zong estimated that it was at least a top-level bloodline. If it was a supreme level bloodline, it would be even better.
Extracting bloodline was a secret method developed by the Ancient God Dynasty or the Three Great God Dynasties. Everyone would first learn this secret method before entering, so it was not difficult. For Chen Zong, it was extremely simple.
"You can't kill me." Shu Muyuan felt Chen Zong's killing intent, and his expression changed drastically. He was extremely shocked, and he shouted as he fled. He didn't want to die. He was a genius of the Shu Mu Clan, and his future was boundless. He could become a Demon Emperor in the future. How could he die here?
However, Chen Zong did not seem to have heard his words. Holding his sword, he chased after him at an extremely fast speed. In the blink of an eye, he had closed in on Yi Jian.
Under this sword, all the brilliance was snatched away, and everything fell into absolute darkness. Only a strong beam of light split the sky and directly slashed Shu Muyuan's body.
Shu Muyuan was a pinnacle Devil King level expert, and he even possessed a limitless bloodline. His demonic body was extremely tyrannical, to the point of being astonishingly strong. Similarly, an all-out attack from a pinnacle Devil King would only be able to injure him, and the injuries wouldn't be considered serious. However, under Chen Zong's Divine Firmament Sword, Shu Muyuan's tyrannical demonic body couldn't withstand it and was directly sliced apart.
After the demonic body was sliced apart, the tree-like eyes did not die, and the place where it was sliced apart did not completely separate. Instead, countless tree-like roots appeared in an instant, connecting with each other and healing.
Compared to other demonic bodies, Shu Muyuan's demonic body was not only astonishingly strong, but also had an unparalleled self-healing ability. The Eternal Tree of Darkness originally had an incomparably strong body and vitality, and was extremely difficult to destroy.
This scene immediately caused Chen Zong's eyes to light up.
The demonic body of the Demonic Tribe was different from the Indestructible Body cultivated by the Human Tribe. It was not a Great Dao Body, but a Great Dao Body.
A Bloodline Body.
Shu Muyuan's Eternal Darkness Bloodline Demonic Body was indeed very strong, but it couldn't block Chen Zong's sword. Time and time again, Chen Zong's speed was extremely fast. Whether it was his movement speed or the speed of his sword, he was faster than Shu Muyuan. The tree-like eyes of the Eternal Darkness Bloodline Demonic Body was constantly slashed, and it was cut apart again and again. Unknowingly, Shu Muyuan's bloodline power was constantly being consumed, and his aura was getting weaker and weaker.
"If you kill me, my Shumu Clan will never let you go. Heaven or hell, only death awaits you." Shu Muyuan was extremely panicked. The shadow of death loomed over him, and he couldn't help but tremble all over.
If Chen Zong was a real Demonic Man, he definitely wouldn't dare to kill him, because the Shumu Clan was too strong in the Dark Sky Empire. Even if the Dark Sky Emperor was stronger than the Shumu Clan, he wouldn't be willing to directly make an enemy of the Shumu Clan. Once he started a war with the Dark Sky Emperor, although he could destroy the Shumu Clan, he would also suffer a great loss.
However, Chen Zong was a human. He was a human who had refined the Dark Soul Essence and disguised himself as a demon. Sooner or later, he would leave this world and would not enter again. There was nothing to worry about. Of course, there was no need to worry about the other party's threat.
What was the Shumu Clan? No matter how powerful they were, could they leave this fragment relic and appear in the present Chaotic Great Universe?
Shu Muyuan had never expected that there would be someone in the Dark Sky Empire who would ignore the threat of the Shumu Clan. But no matter what, the consequence of the threat being ineffective was death.
After the bloodline power was exhausted, Shu Muyuan could no longer heal himself. His body was immediately cut in half by Chen Zong. Under the attack of the sword intent, Shu Muyuan's Divine Intent was also defeated.
Death!
Shu Muyuan, a peerless genius of the Shumu Clan, had died here. Just after Chen Zong killed Shu Muyuan, a bloody light suddenly appeared between Shu Muyuan's eyebrows. As the bloody light spread, it instantly shot out and landed on Chen Zong's body. Finally, it appeared on Chen Zong's neck.
It was a black and red tree the size of a palm. The tree looked very strange. As the branches extended and intertwined, they seemed to condense into a ferocious face. It seemed to be howling, roaring, or cursing before it died.
Chen Zong frowned slightly. He immediately mobilized his Mixed Yuan Heart Force to attack it, but he could not remove it. He also used his Divine Intent to attack it, but he could not remove it. He also used his Sword Intent to attack it, but he still could not remove it.
That imprint seemed to be constantly emitting mysterious fluctuations.
Could it be something like a mark?
Because he had killed Shu Muyuan, his bloodline mark had been left on him. It would make it easier for the Shumu Clan to sense it and hunt him down.
Thinking about it this way, it was very possible.
However, Chen Zong did not take it too seriously. As long as he obtained another Demon Soul, he would quickly leave and return to the Ancient Divine Dynasty. No matter how strong the Shumu Clan was, they could not do anything to him.
With a thought, Chen Zong immediately used the bloodline extraction secret method. Mixed Yuan Heart Force turned into a bloody light that shone on Shu Muyuan's corpse. It constantly penetrated into his body and began to mobilize his bloodline power, extracting it bit by bit.
The prerequisite for extracting the bloodline was that the other party had to be unable to resist. In such a situation, the other party could either be beaten unconscious or killed.
There was a difference between extracting the bloodline after the other party was unconscious and after the other party was killed.
There was a difference.
Unconscious meant that the other party was still alive. Extracting the bloodline while still alive would often lead to a complete bloodline. Extracting the bloodline after killing the other party would often lead to the loss of the bloodline.
It was not that Chen Zong did not want to extract the complete bloodline, but it was difficult to do so. Shu Muyuan was very strong. Although Chen Zong could defeat and kill him, it was difficult to make him lose consciousness.
The extraction of the bloodline ended after a short while. Shu Muyuan, whose bloodline had been extracted, turned into a dried corpse. His entire body seemed to have withered and emitted waves of the smell of decay. His withered face even carried a kind of terror and resentment.
Chen Zong held something in his hand. It was a ball of black and red Qi. The Qi fluctuated like liquid. One could vaguely see that it was a ferocious tree.
The bloodline of the Eternal Tree of Darkness!
Although the bloodline was in his hand, Chen Zong did not intend to integrate it. Firstly, it was not suitable here. Integrating the bloodline required a relatively safe environment and a lot of time. It could take as little as a few months or as long as a few years. After all, integrating the bloodline was a change in one's own bloodline. It was not so easy.
Second, which was also the most important point, was that Chen Zong didn't want his temperament to be affected by his bloodline. This kind of influence couldn't be achieved just because he didn't want it. Unless he didn't fuse with it, otherwise, once he fused with it, he would be influenced and changed little by little. He wouldn't be aware of it, or even if he was aware of it, he would accept it naturally.
This bloodline was very strong, even stronger than the bloodline of the Martial God Lord. Although it might be affected and degraded after being killed by Chen Zong, it was not weak. If he took it out, he might be able to exchange it for a good treasure.
Chen Zong was most interested in the Heavenly Soul, or at least the quota to enter the Celestial Being Era Fragment of the Universe.
With a thought, Chen Zong immediately put away the bloodline of the Eternal Dark Tree. Then, he took out the scimitar that he had obtained before and checked it. The scimitar emitted a terrible Qi. It was at the level of a top Chaotic Divine Weapon. However, Chen Zong did not use a scimitar. Moreover, this scimitar was a magic weapon of the Demon Tribe. It was more suitable for the Demon Tribe. If a human wanted to use it, he or she must have the Demon Tribe's bloodline or master the Great Dao of Darkness.
In fact, there were many cultivators who had mastered the Great Dao of Darkness. This meant that this scimitar could be sold at a good price. In addition, Shu Muyuan's storage divine weapon also became Chen Zong's spoils of war. Chen Zong checked it. It was worthy of being called the Shu Mu Clan's peerless talent. The storage divine weapon was very rich. Unfortunately, they were all useful to the Demon Tribe. Chen Zong had no choice but to sell it in the end.
With a wave of his hand, Sword Qi surged out like a raging storm. It fell on Shu Muyuan's withered and decayed body and immediately tore it into pieces.
After destroying the corpse, Chen Zong once again rushed forward. Demon Emperor Xing Gu and his subordinates, Blood Sword Demon Emperor and Life Chasing Demon Emperor, had left behind many treasures and even inheritances. Everyone wanted to obtain them. What Chen Zong wanted the most was the Demon Soul. One was not too little, two was not too much. It would be even better if he could obtain a few more.
In the other areas of the mausoleum, the two peak devil kings that belonged to Shu Muyuan were also separated. They were in different locations and were constantly searching, trying to locate Shu Muyuan based on their instincts. Their bodies abruptly halted as a formless and terrifying energy gushed out from them, akin to blades and swords slashing at them. Their faces contorted as they fell to the ground, howling in agony, as though they were enduring an incomparably terrifying torture.
