Eternal Heavenly Emperor-Chapter 331 - 321 Demonic Technique

"Zhao, it’s time to use the ultimate move," Li said.

Another man in black nodded. In a few minutes, they were going to enter Shahai Town. Although they had a very powerful backer, the deeds they were performing should not be known to others, so they dared not openly kill someone in Shahai Town.

They must deal with it beforehand.

As Zhao ran, he shook his head from side to side. Chu Hao occasionally looked back and was horror-stricken because black Qi started to emerge from Zhao’s seven apertures; it continuously flowed from his nostrils to his ears and sometimes surged from his eyes into his mouth.

He was like a monster.

"Meow, I knew there was something off about this guy. It turns out he’s cultivated a demonic technique," Fat Cat suddenly exclaimed. It was following far behind Chu Hao, and as long as it didn’t speak, who would pay attention to a cat?

"What demonic technique?" Chu Hao also transmitted his question with Divine Sense.

"It’s extremely sinister, and definitely not meant for human practice. Anyone who cultivates this demonic technique will sooner or later fall into the demonic path, becoming neither human nor demon," Fat Cat said.

"How powerful is it?" Chu Hao asked, which was his biggest concern since he was currently being chased by such a demonic being.

"I can’t say it’s strong, but the demonic technique is very peculiar, capable of attacking the soul," Fat Cat solemnly said.

Hearing this, Chu Hao quickly increased his speed, deploying the Wind and Cloud Step, his feet moving as if flying.

"Still trying to run?" Li’s figure suddenly soared into the air with amazing speed, already intercepting Chu Hao from the front. Being a Warrior, he was able to control the artifact to fly, and naturally, his short bursts were incredibly fast.

After getting in front of Chu Hao, he fiercely slapped out a palm towards him.

Chu Hao was unafraid; the Silver Dragon Armor could block attacks from Warrior level, even Eighth Tier was no exception, although he was unsure if it would be effective against the limit-breaking Ninth Tier or Great Perfection of Tenth Tier, since surpassing limits could not be measured by common sense.

At least, these two were not Ninth Tier Warriors.

Chu Hao broke through Li’s blockade, but the opponent hadn’t been completely useless and had managed to slow him, giving Zhao time to prepare his ultimate move.

At this moment, the black Qi emerging from Zhao’s apertures turned into snake-like wisps, continuously writhing and making his features indiscernible. His body was also enveloped by a faint black mist; he truly looked like he had become a demonic being.

"Hao, be very careful. The demonic technique directly affects the Divine Sense. It’s extremely terrifying," Fat Cat warned.

Chu Hao nodded, elevating his spirit to the utmost to confront the demonic technique Zhao was about to unleash.

—With both Eighth Tier Warriors having taken out their ultimate moves, how could he not respond seriously?

"Argh!" Just then, Zhao burst into a long howl, emitting a black stream of Qi like an arrow, shooting straight towards Chu Hao.

It was incredibly fast.

Chu Hao had no time to dodge; the stream of Qi was already striking at his head.

The Silver Dragon Armor seemed to lose its effect, as the black Qi immediately penetrated through, attacking Chu Hao’s mind.

Hum, Chu Hao felt a pain in his head, as if his soul was being torn apart, the agony being unbearable. Under such soul-piercing pain, he almost couldn’t maintain the operation of the Silver Dragon Armor.

He gritted his teeth and desperately exerted his spiritual power to keep the Silver Dragon Armor securely on him. Otherwise, without the protection of this ancient armor, he would be instantly annihilated by the two Eighth Tier Warriors.

It was extremely uncomfortable.

Every muscle in Chu Hao’s body twitched, not due to physical pain but because of the torment to his soul, the sensation of being torn apart was immensely painful.

"Just die quietly, it’ll be less painful," Li said, swinging down another palm.

Chu Hao scoffed, "I don’t plan on dying so soon. Instead, you should clean your necks and wait for me to reap your lives."

"Still talking tough!" Li was responsible for blocking Chu Hao, and while the Silver Dragon Armor was still on Chu Hao, his attacks couldn’t deal any critical damage, so he just needed to keep Chu Hao engaged to create opportunities for his companion to attack.

"Argh!" Zhao shouted again, and a blast of black demonic Qi shot out again, aiming directly at Chu Hao’s head.

Chu Hao raised his hands to block, but the demonic Qi, visible yet untouchable, passed directly through his hands, penetrating his crown.

"Ah—" Chu Hao screamed; the demonic Qi seemed to have a powerful corrosive ability, gradually eroding his soul, an agony beyond description.

Throughout his journey, he had endured many hardships, whether it was the early use of Strong Muscle Powder or the forced enhancement of his cultivation by Xiaocao; all were intensely painful.

But these were all physical; this was the first time he encountered soul trauma. There was no way to defend against it, and he could only passively endure, nearly fainting on the spot.

"Die!" Li attacked again.

Chu Hao’s eyes turned blood-red, but his fighting spirit increased instead of decreased. He vibrated his right hand, and Starlight lanced out, slashing at Li’s chest.

Li furrowed his brows, leapt out of the way, and dared not face the sharp edge head-on.

Shock filled his heart as he saw Chu Hao’s pained expression. Clearly, the Silver Dragon Armor could not defend against the Demonic Sound piercing the brain. But since the Demonic Technique had taken effect, shouldn’t Chu Hao have been shaken into unconsciousness or driven mad on the spot, taking days to recover?

How could this young man still persist so tenaciously?

Incredible, was this young man truly defying the heavens?

"Roar!" Behind them, Zhao was still howling desperately, emitting a brain-piercing Demonic Sound.

Chu Hao gritted his teeth. Even if the opponent had not employed the Demonic Technique, he was nearly at his limit. It would be entirely unwise to fight the enemy to the death. His right hand shook, and he had already taken out a feather from the Mustard Seed Ring.

The Precious Feather, obtained from the Ancient Training Ground, was only two feet long and shimmered with a flame-like radiance.

With a swoosh, he swung the Precious Feather towards Li, infused it with Star Force, and immediately triggered the feather’s resonance, emitting a terrifying flame that transformed into a mini-fire bird, shooting towards Li.

Chu Hao was slightly surprised. When he used this precious feather in the Martial Master Realm, it only produced a wave of fire and didn’t take the form of a fire bird.

This was because his realm had improved, which also affected the Precious Feather, allowing it to unleash much greater power.

"Eh, you’ve still got quite a few tricks up your sleeve," Fat Cat transmitted mentally. "This is the Primordial Feather of the Spirit Fire Phoenix, inherent from birth and never shedding. There are only seven of these precious feathers, refined throughout the life of the Spirit Fire Phoenix, with inexplicably great power."

Chu Hao’s head throbbed with pain, but he was not in the mood to respond to Fat Cat. After swinging the feather, he hurriedly continued his escape.

The fire bird struck, a Primordial Feather from an Ancient Divine Beast, invaluable and infinitely powerful. Li was forced to defend with all his might, having no intention of dying alongside Chu Hao.

Chu Hao took the opportunity to sprint desperately, deploying Wind and Cloud Step; his speed was fast as a meteor.

"Roar!" Zhao caught up and another Demonic Sound assaulted them.

"Agh—" Chu Hao vomited blood violently, blood also streaming from his every orifice, the sight was incredibly gruesome, and he staggered, nearly falling to the ground. But he bit down hard and sprang forward again, shooting into the distance.

Li also dispersed the fire bird and again flew with his Treasure Artifact, catching up to Chu Hao and striking out with a palm to stop him.

"Get lost!" Chu Hao roared, driven to desperation. He swung the Precious Feather again; at the same time, he unleashed Crescent Slash, mixing it with Starlight, its destructive power terrifyingly immense.

Li, surprisingly, did not dare to catch the attack head-on and had to dodge to the side, letting the two attacks pass by him.

Chu Hao started running again, darting forward, widening the distance from Zhao behind him.

"Roar!" Zhao roared again, the Demonic Sound piercing through, but this time, due to the sufficient distance, its power was greatly reduced, and Chu Hao managed to withstand it. Yet, the blood tears in his eyes flowed freely, still in intense discomfort.

"Quick, chase him, we’re almost at the town!" Li called out. If Chu Hao really escaped into it, they would have to stop their pursuit. Predictably, Chu Hao would not venture out again.

The demonic Zhao, slow in reaction after his transformation, paused before realizing what his companion was saying. Yet, he did not use the artifact to fly, seemingly having lost that ability, and only sprinted furiously after him.

Warriors’ speed naturally lagged behind that of a Martial Sect, and soon, the two had caught up with Chu Hao, with Li restraining him while Zhao employed the brain-piercing Demonic Sound to attack Chu Hao’s spirit.

"Agh!" "Agh!" "Agh!"

With each impact of the Demonic Sound, Chu Hao spit out mouthfuls of blood, unable to resist such attacks at the moment.

However, Shahai Town was now in sight.

Chu Hao bit down hard, seeing the opportunity to break through to Warrior level. Once he entered Shahai Town, he planned to start a bitter meditation until he advanced to Warrior. By then, the defense of the Silver Dragon Armor would elevate to War General level, and his own strength would explode a hundredfold. Facing these two again at that time, the tables of strength would be turned. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

A gentleman’s revenge, ten years is not too late, yet he might only need a month or two.

Charge, charge, charge!

Chu Hao let out a long howl. Under the intense drive to survive, his speed miraculously increased even further.

The two black-clad men did their utmost to block and kill, but still could not stop Chu Hao.

With a swish, his figure flew, having entered the region of Shahai Town.

Li was the first to stop, yet the demonic Zhao, his mind somewhat unclear, continued rushing forward until Li grabbed him.

The transformed Zhao could not be seen by people, especially not by too many or those who understood, or it would inevitably cause a major upheaval.

Zhao panted heavily, the Demonic Qi slowly fading from his body, revealing his original appearance, but his complexion was deathly pale, clearly showing the heavy toll that using Demonic techniques had taken on him.

"First, send back the news. We’ll wait here. If this kid comes out, we must kill him," Li said grimly. (To be continued.
