道罗邪皇子 (邪神之道 B4)

Chapter 789

Just as Xuan Nuo is about to take a single step forward a golden rune appears on the back of Ye Gui Feng's right hand.

The appearance of this rune is followed by a second and a third until a total of nine runes covered the entirety of Ye Gui Feng's right arm.

[...]

Clenching his right hand into a fist the eerie red radiance in Ye Gui Feng's eyes are extinguished like the soft flames of a candle.

[...]

Following this the subconscious action of breathing ceases as all signs of life vanishes from Ye Gui Feng's body making it seem as if he had truly died and became nothing more than a withered corpse.

"..."

For a brief instance Xuan Nuo felt the icy temperatures of heat dying down until it had almost vanished without a trace but-

"...!"

Almost as if that had only been a reprieve the coldness from before returns with greater ferocity and with its return a bone chilling gust of wind brushes by.

With this wind's passing a strange change occurs to this world.

"...?"

It's unclear as to whether or not the sight in front of him is also caused by Ye Gui Feng's slaughtering intent but Xuan Nuo can see a thin layer of frost covering the grounds around him.

As a bad premonition wells up in his heart Xuan Nuo spreads his divine senses out.

"Uh...?"

What he sees is something that results in him widening his eyes in disbelief.

The rivers of lava have ceased their flows and covering their surface is a shell of frost.

This type of environmental change should be impossible but regardless of how impossible this entire sight might be Xuan Nuo can only force himself to swallow it as within a split second this layer of frost quickly becomes a dense layer of ice.

Retracting his divine senses Xuan Nuo looks down to find a similar layer of ice wrapping around his feet.

*Kakaka!* taking two steps back and pulling his feet out of the ice Xuan Nuo is just about to raise his head to look back on his enemy but-

[...]

"..."

The exchange of looks had been brief for what happens next can only be described as plain and simplistic.

On the surface Ye Gui Feng's attack had seemed very ordinary.

It is but a simplistic punch that even a common mortal would have been able to perform.

But the speed in which this attack is executed is beyond ordinary. It is a speed that is difficult to gauge for not even Xuan Nuo had been able to catch it.

A single blink might very well be the closest way to describe the speed in which this attack had been executed.

To a person looking upon this sight from a distance away they would probably think that there is not a single ounce of strength held behind Ye Gui Feng's simplistic strike.

But it is this exact strike that seems ordinary on the surface that had caused the scenery in front of Xuan Nuo's eyes to vanish without a trace.

An ordinary practitioner standing on the receiving end of this attack would most probably think that someone had placed a dense piece of fabric over their eyes and assumed it to be a prank without ever realizing that they had already died with their body reduced into nothing.
