Chaos Heaven-Dominating Technique

"Who’s there?" At the sound of that chilling cry, Xue Shitian’s brow furrowed. A faint, blood-red energy swirled around him, looking ready to erupt at any moment.

"If you have any guts, come out! Don’t hide in the shadows!" Jian Wushuang barked. The longsword on his back hummed as it instantly unsheathed. A sharp Sword Light flashed, stabbing toward the depths of the great hall. However, the Sword Light vanished into the darkness without a trace.

The Martial Artists in the hall all grew vigilant, their eyes scanning the room. The scene just now seemed familiar, exactly like the monster that had ambushed them in the cave before!

"Damn it, that monster is back!"

"Everyone, be careful! Don’t let this monster find an opening!"

Shouts echoed through the hall. The group, who had just been fighting fiercely over the golden orb of light, now stood on the same side.

CRACK... CRACK...

Amidst the clamor, the crisp sound of grinding bones suddenly rang out, silencing everyone. They all turned their gazes toward the source of the sound, staring intently into the darkness. They were dying to see what the monster that had ambushed them actually looked like!

CRACK...

The sound grew closer, and the eyes of the Martial Artists in the hall widened. A deeply oppressive atmosphere enveloped the entire hall, and beads of sweat began to form on their foreheads.

SNAP...

A moment later, the sound of a bone breaking was heard. Everyone saw a pitch-black skeletal foot step directly onto the arm of a mummified Martial Artist, snapping it clean. Immediately after, a large hand reached out, pulled the longsword deeply embedded in the ground free, and then the figure emerged from the shadows.

Hiss...

Upon seeing the monster that emerged from the darkness, all the Martial Artists present, aside from Shen Haoran and Murong Wanqing, couldn’t help but suck in a sharp breath of cold air.

Standing before them now was a massive, three-meter-tall skeleton. Its bones, black as jade, emitted a faint glow. Two streams of ochre-colored ghost fire danced in the great skeleton’s eye sockets. As its skull turned, the crisp sound of grinding bones sent goosebumps rising on everyone’s skin.

"Isn’t... isn’t that the pile of dried bones?" a sharp-eyed Martial Artist exclaimed upon seeing the skeleton. Everyone immediately looked toward the throne on the high platform. It was now completely empty.

"Damn it, the bodies of those Martial Artists are gone too. Could their blood have awakened these bones?" a Martial Artist cursed under his breath.

The towering Black Jade skeleton showed no reaction to the crowd’s shock. It simply beckoned to the golden orb of light in mid-air. The orb, which had been darting about, flew toward it and burst open, revealing a suit of Black Jade Armor and a jet-black Scroll.

The moment the Black Jade Armor appeared, it imprinted itself onto the skeleton’s body. The Scroll was promptly swallowed by the skeleton.

"ROAR!" Once the Black Jade Armor was equipped, the skeleton let out a furious roar. An incredibly violent power erupted from it instantly. A visible shockwave of air spread out from the skeleton, and the powerful gale ripped the bluestone tiles from the hall floor, sending countless shards of rock flying toward the Martial Artists.

"What?!" Feeling the aura emanating from the skeleton, the expressions of everyone present changed drastically. This presence had completely surpassed the previous Diamond Death Warrior; it had actually reached Spirit Aspect Peak!

"This can’t be the Black Jade Death Warrior mentioned in the Sheepskin Scroll, can it?" a disciple stammered, staring at the rampaging skeleton. The Sheepskin Scroll had said that if one encountered a Black Jade Level Death Warrior, there was only one path: flee! They had assumed that in a Secret Realm this vast, they would never run into a Death Warrior of that Level. But now, the one standing before them filled them with despair.

’Damn it! How did we run into something like this!’ Jian Wushuang’s brows knitted together as he cursed under his breath. He now knew this thing wasn’t the same monster that had attacked them before, but he would rather face that monster than this Black Jade Death Warrior. A Death Warrior of this Level was completely beyond anyone present to handle.

"Trespassers in this hall shall die!" After its aura erupted, the Black Jade Death Warrior’s icy voice rang out again. It swept its cold gaze over everyone in the hall, then its figure shot forward. Its first target, surprisingly, was Shen Haoran!

Seeing the Black Jade Death Warrior charging toward him, Shen Haoran’s pupils constricted. He immediately tossed Murong Wanqing, who was behind him, to Xu Hao and shot backward in retreat.

SWISH...

However, the instant Shen Haoran retreated, a black shadow abruptly appeared in front of him. Staring at the Black Jade Death Warrior before him, Shen Haoran was horrified. ’This speed... it’s just too fast!’

The Black Jade Death Warrior appeared before Shen Haoran and, without a word, raised its massive skeletal fist and smashed it toward his chest. The powerful force of the punch carried a whistling sonic boom as it closed in an instant.

Seeing this, Shen Haoran hastily crossed his arms to block his chest. The next moment, the Black Jade Death Warrior’s fist howled through the air and slammed directly into his arms. A violent power was instantly unleashed. Shen Haoran felt as if a colossal mountain had crashed into him. His entire body shot backward like a cannonball, smashing through dozens of Stone Pillars before finally coming to a stop.

"Brother Haoran!" Murong Wanqing cried out at the sight, her heart leaping into her throat.

The surrounding Martial Artists couldn’t help but gulp, cold sweat dripping down their bodies. ’If that attack had hit any one of us, we probably would have exploded and died on the spot. This Black Jade Death Warrior is just too terrifying!’

"ROAR!" After landing the blow, the Black Jade Death Warrior roared and shot forward again, flying toward the spot where Shen Haoran had landed. The black longsword in its hand glinted with a cold light as it viciously stabbed into the cloud of dust and smoke.

But just then, a flash of Sword Light flared, striking the black longsword and knocking it off course. The black longsword grazed past the cloud of dust and embedded itself fiercely into a distant stone wall.

"Brother Shen, I’m here to help!" Jian Wushuang shouted, leaping out from the crowd.

The strong gust of wind from the sword strike blew all the dust away, revealing Shen Haoran’s figure once more. He didn’t seem to have suffered much damage, though he looked a bit of a mess...
