Chapter 2699 Devour
The Wither Star.
The Sect Master of the Academy watched Old Xuan drag the barely breathing Su Zimo into a spatial tunnel. Even after the void closed, he had a calm expression.
He merely raised his palm and slapped the void in front of him.
Crack!
A tremendous force suddenly descended and shattered the spatial tunnel where Old Xuan and Su Zimo escaped into.
The two of them fell out of the void once more and landed on the Wither Star.
"You guys are way too naive to think that you can escape in front of me."
The Sect Master of the Academy strode over with a calm expression and a mocking look in his eyes.
Old Xuan had already been injured by the Sect Master of the Academy earlier on. Now that he received another blow, he spat out a mouthful of blood with a dispirited expression.
Right now, he could barely even stand up, let alone escape.
"Sigh."
Old Xuan's gaze darkened as he sighed internally.
He glanced at Su Zimo beside him with a look of pity. contemporary romance
He was already in his later years. Even if he died, he had lived for hundreds of thousands of years.
However, Su Zimo was way too young.
It would be a pity if he died prematurely.
Su Zimo did not do anything wrong. He merely possessed the Green Lotus bloodline and was unfortunately targeted by the Sect Master of the Academy.
Even Old Xuan himself could not escape the scheme of the Sect Master of the Academy. How could Su Zimo go against him?
"Initially, I wanted to take you in as my disciple. Unfortunately, we're not fated to be together in this life."
At that moment, Old Xuan had mixed feelings and countless thoughts flashed through his mind. In the end, he bore a carefree smile. "This is good as well. At the very least, we won't be lonely having one another as companions on the way to the Netherworld."
Old Xuan was already prepared to die.
However, Su Zimo had yet to give up!
Since his death was unavoidable, he had to take a final gamble before his death and do his best to drag the Sect Master of the Academy down as well!
The Sect Master of the Academy reached out and grabbed Su Zimo's forehead.
He was prepared to capture Su Zimo's Essence Spirit first and try to search his soul for some useful information before the latter died.
Su Zimo was expressionless as he circulated his visual technique silently.
Phew!
Suddenly, a blinding light burst forth from his right eye and shone towards the Sect Master of the Academy!
Both parties were extremely close together. Since visual techniques were instantaneous, it was difficult for the Sect Master of the Academy to dodge.
To be precise, the Sect Master of the Academy had no intention of dodging!
The visual technique landed in his eyes and vanished without creating a single ripple, like a stone tossed into the ocean.
The Sect Master of the Academy paused.
He had also cultivated extremely powerful visual techniques.
Furthermore, the difference in their cultivation realms was immense. That was the reason why he was unafraid of Su Zimo's visual technique attacks.
The visual technique did not manage to injure him.
However, the Sect Master of the Academy did not expect his eyes to still feel a tinge of burning pain.
"Very good. You actually made me feel a trace of pain."
The Sect Master of the Academy came before Su Zimo and smiled gently. "I'll take away your eyes first!"
As he said that, the Sect Master of the Academy extended two fingers and stabbed towards Su Zimo's eyes!
However, the moment the two fingers of the Sect Master of the Academy touched Su Zimo's eyes, they could not pierce through, as though they had touched something extremely hard.
Immediately after, the Sect Master of the Academy's expression changed starkly!
A drop of pitch-black ink seemed to have seeped out of Su Zimo's left eye and spread rapidly towards him.
The palm of the Sect Master of the Academy was devoured by the darkness before long.
He did not feel any pain nor was there any blood.
However, his palm had already vanished.
The cold darkness continued to spread up his wrist and devoured his arm.
The Sect Master of the Academy wanted to retreat.
However, his feet seemed to have fallen into a quagmire and he could not move.
As for himself, he felt that he was falling into a bottomless abyss. No matter how he struggled, he could not escape!
Finally, a hint of panic flashed through the Sect Master of the Academy's eyes.
This was Su Zimo's counterattack!
The Illumination Eye earlier on was merely for the sake of the scene before him!
Back when Su Zimo entered the Emperor's Tomb to pluck the Seven Glow Immortal Ginseng, he was devoured by a strange darkness power and almost died.
Thankfully, the Nether Glow Stone in his left eye absorbed the darkness power continuously and he was able to survive.
In the end, with the Seven Glow Immortal Ginseng, flesh grew again.
As for that terrifying darkness power, it was sealed in the Nether Glow Stone.
Up till this point of his cultivation, even though he had already entered the Perfected One realm and his Green Lotus True Body had grown to Grade 12, Su Zimo was still unable to channel the darkness power in the Nether Glow Stone.
Since he could not activate it, he could only rely on the power of the Sect Master of the Academy!
Now that he saw the panic in the Sect Master of the Academy's eyes, Su Zimo's lips twitched as he smiled happily.
The Sect Master of the Academy could divine the heavenly secrets, fate, the human heart and karma. However, there were still things beyond his divination!"
The Sect Master of the Academy calmed down quickly and harrumphed coldly. He channeled the eight gigantic doors of the Grotto-heaven behind him and charged towards the darkness ahead.
Beams of light burst forth from the eight doors, wanting to dispel the darkness.
However, all the light was devoured by the darkness!
Even the eight doors condensed by the Sect Master of the Academy could not hold on against the darkness power and swayed!
"Emperor realm!"
The Sect Master of the Academy gritted his teeth and said.
Only such pure world power released by the Emperor realm could have such a huge impact on his perfected Grotto-heaven and the eight doors!
This was not even the level of a quasi-Emperor, but the true power of an actual Emperor!
It was indeed not surprising that the Sect Master of the Academy did not expect this.
Even the body of an Immortal King could not seal such power of the Emperor realm, let alone a Perfected Immortal.
If such power of the Emperor realm surged into the body of an Immortal King, he would die immediately!
The Sect Master of the Academy had never expected Su Zimo to have such a terrifying power of the Emperor realm sealed in his eyes!
Of course, the Sect Master of the Academy made use of the power of the perfected Grotto-heaven and the eight doors to obtain a breather and broke free from the darkness rapidly.
After all, that darkness power could not unleash its true might without the control of an Emperor.
Even so, the Sect Master of the Academy still paid a considerable price.
One of his palms was completely devoured by the darkness and vanished.
The darkness power was still lingering at his wrist and could not be removed immediately. Naturally, his palm could not recover either.
"Ahahaha!"
Old Xuan, who was at the side, burst into laughter when he saw that.
Both Old Xuan and Su Zimo knew that they would not be able to escape death today.
However, the fact that they could see the Sect Master of the Academy in such a sorry state before they died made them extremely delighted. They had finally turned the tides once.
The Sect Master of the Academy sneered, "Don't be smug. When this darkness dissipates, the two of you will still have to die!"
The darkness power sealed in the Nether Glow Stone was limited. Now that it was triggered by the Sect Master of the Academy, it was released continuously. However, it would soon dry up.
