Chapter 559: Beating Back to the Source

“How could this be? That imprint’s brilliance can only last for a moment, so why is it still so fierce?”

The Red King was puzzled, his heart stirred.

But soon, he stabilized his mind and became even colder, saying, “My blood will not be shed in vain; it is undying. On the contrary, the enemy will be even more miserable.”

Before he finished speaking, the blood flowed down the River of Time, increasing in volume, transforming into intricate patterns, and forming a peerless killing array.

“Chi!”

At this moment, Lin Fan was surrounded. He raised his hand and swept, dispersing some of the blood, but it was not destroyed and could quickly reassemble.

“It’s useless. My blood, like me, is undying. Now it’s my turn to imprison and bind you!”

The Red King was incredibly cold, his laughter filled with surging killing intent, directed straight at Lin Fan, the one who had caused him such great loss.

“Is that so?”

“To speak of undying in front of me, you are not capable!”

Lin Fan remained confident. He formed hand seals, and beams of light condensed into a long banner.

However, this time there was a change; it was no longer so sacred. Demonic flames surged, and black mist rolled out from the banner.

“Boom!”

Black light shimmered, the long banner glowed, and eerie winds blew. A black hole appeared on the banner’s surface, devouring the sky-high blood light like a whale.

It seemed capable of swallowing everything, plunging all living beings into an eternal abyss, refining them!

“Hm?!”

Suddenly, the Red King’s expression changed, and his body shook violently, as if he had been slapped by an invisible hand, feeling a burning sensation.

Because, to his shock, he discovered that all the wounds on his body had reopened, and his blood was being drawn out and absorbed into the long banner.

This was incredibly ironic!

He had just declared that his blood was undying, and the more he shed, the more miserable his enemy would be. Yet, his opponent was now taking all his blood.

“Sever it for me!” The Red King roared, unleashing his strongest forbidden secret art, intending to cut off that devouring force.

Severing Karma, breaking connections!

Otherwise, if all his blood were drained, even for a King of Immortals, it would be very dangerous.

“Hmph, Soul Capture!”

Lin Fan snorted coldly, with an air of unparalleled majesty, activating the long banner. The black mist surged against the River of Time, engulfing it.

“Whoosh!”

The black mist was boundless, transforming into hundreds of black chains. These were rules, these were order, coiling around the king-like man.

The Red King was stunned, shocked to find that these black chains seemed to be binding his Physical Body, but in reality, they were imprisoning his Primordial Spirit.

For a moment, he couldn’t move!

“Boom!”

Then, Lin Fan’s fist light tore through the air, striking the Nine Heavens above and extinguishing the nine netherworlds below, unparalleled through all ages, disturbing even the River of Time.

And then, he punched through, piercing through eternity, reaching everywhere!

This sight was too terrifying, absolutely soul-shaking.

“Pfft!”

The foreign King of Immortals was struck. His entire body flew backward, his armor completely shattered, not a single piece remaining, and his body was ripped apart.

“Ah…” The Red King roared in anger. What humiliation was this? He was actually pierced through, beaten back to the source of the River of Time.

Clearly, this was very rare. For him, who had witnessed countless destructions, it had not happened in eons.

“Well done! What King of Immortals? To dare to disrupt eternity, this is his just desserts!” Shi Hao shouted, incredibly excited.

He had only touched a wine pot, yet it had drawn the pursuit of a being from ancient times. This made him helpless and resentful.

Now, seeing the opponent so disheveled, it was truly gratifying!

“Immortal Metal!”

The woman sitting opposite Shi Hao also showed joy. She waved her sleeve and caught some fragments of armor that flew out amidst the brilliant light rain.

Because this item itself was incredibly valuable, and coupled with the record of the grand battle between two great powerhouses, it was even more unimaginable.

Once thoroughly studied, the traces left behind could lead to enlightenment of the Dao.

“Stabilize!”

In the distance, the King of Immortals, who had been beaten back to the source, was very unwilling. He roared, activating a great spell, wanting to stop his decline.

In this battle, he was truly unconvinced. To be dealt with like this, ignominiously beaten back to ancient times, filled his heart with rage.

“Boom!”

However, Lin Fan also made his move. A golden cauldron emerged, suppressing all things in heaven and earth, surrounded by the sun, moon, and stars.

It was incredibly heavy, imbued with Chaos Qi, emanating world-shaking immortal light, its killing intent reaching the heavens, as if thousands of gods and devils were galloping.

Of course, this cauldron was not Lin Fan’s current Golden Cauldron; it was an evolution from him, emanating from the small figure representing the future on his head.

Similarly, the black banner from before was also like this, but the difference was that it emanated from the being of the past.

“Rumble!”

As the great cauldron spewed forth endless immortal power, Lin Fan smashed it out, sending it against the River of Time.

This strike was unparalleled. The Heaven-Defying techniques that the ancient being had just unleashed were all shattered.

And, the great cauldron suppressed and shattered the sky, heavily smashing him directly on the head.

“Ah…” The Red King let out a tragic cry, his head bleeding, his forehead bone shattered.

This time, he was truly beaten to pieces. His entire body disintegrated, flying towards the end of the River of Time.

At this moment, where was his earlier arrogance? Crimson blood rain scattered, and his very life was in peril.

“He just died like that?” Shi Hao was somewhat disbelieving, as if in a dream.

One must know, this was a supreme powerhouse, unfathomable. Sitting in ancient times, he could sense his future self and intended to kill him.

Such Heaven-Defying means, how terrifying! The past influencing the future, strangling dangerous sprouts, who could contend with that?

However, now this powerhouse was beaten to the point of his Physical Body disintegrating by Lin Fan, who had gained temporary power, which was truly incredible.

“He won’t die immediately. His true body is seated in ancient times; only an Incarnation came over.”

By the stone table, the woman sighed, revealing the truth.

According to her, it was an Incarnation, clad in armor, that came along the River of Time. The opponent had not truly entered the fray.

Otherwise, the outcome would not have been this.

Shi Hao was greatly astonished. This was only an Incarnation, so how powerful must the true body of the person who wanted to kill him be?

“There’s no need to worry too much. No one dares to easily change major events in the River of Time. The Karma is too great, even a King of Immortals would find it hard to bear,” the woman said.

Even so, not using the true body, but having an Incarnation come over, would still incur a great calamity and demand a huge price, possibly even implicating the true body in death.

Especially now, with that being’s great defeat, the situation would be even worse. It might even perish in the past immediately.

“Dong!”

Indeed, under the impact of the great cauldron, the man could no longer condense his body. He was shattered and fell into the River of Time.

Wave after wave splashed up; that was the power of time. This person was submerged by the years and never rose again.

At this moment, just as Shi Hao breathed a sigh of relief, thinking they had won and the opponent was eliminated, another anomaly occurred.

“Roar!”

From ancient times, a huge roar echoed, traveling through endless years, actually shaking the present age, a terrifying sound to hear.

The sound waves were too terrifying, causing the River of Time to surge and the endless star sea to pour down, a sight that shook heaven and earth and made ghosts weep!

Furthermore, one could see an ancient temple emerging in the upper reaches of the River of Time, with a being enveloped in Chaos sitting within it.

“What happened?” Shi Hao asked, looking puzzled.

“Not good… This person is incredibly bold, risking the demise of his true body to come and fight!”

The woman was truly alarmed. Was the opponent’s killing intent so strong that he would even risk incurring Karma to eliminate a future generation?
