Chapter 2327: Chapter 2295: The Second Soul
Along with this deep roar, a terrifying commotion could be heard coming from the depths of the Extinguishing Emperor Palace.
It sounded like the collapse of heaven and earth!
"Boom!!!"
The powerhouses who had just emerged from the underground palace, initially full of grandeur, suddenly changed their expressions drastically upon sensing this commotion.
"Go, leave here quickly!"
"Shang is stronger than before, run!"
In the blink of an eye, those powerhouses who had seemed to hold the essence of heaven and earth in their hands, started fleeing towards the exit of Heaven Extinguishing Palace as if they were mice encountering a cat.
"Why won’t this damned monster just die?!"
Someone couldn’t help but curse. When Shang first appeared years ago, his power was already terrifying. Although Shang had never been seen fighting with a Dao Saint level powerhouse, he had the strength to completely overwhelm those in the Heaven and Earth Realm.
Although Shang’s specific cultivation was unknown, most people guessed that Shang was at the Dao Saint level.
Otherwise, how could he possibly completely crush the Ancient Ancestor?
Although this time it’s unknown what caused the collapse of the underground palace, the people who emerged had no intention of seeking revenge against Shang; or rather, they simply did not have the courage to take revenge on Shang. Their first thought was to escape.
"Monster?"
At this moment, a sinister voice sounded beside the person who spoke earlier.
"Is that how you weaklings name those strong enough to be unfathomable?"
The person was startled, didn’t dare look back, and turned to dash in another direction, pushing his speed to the extreme.
Yet before he ran far, a large hand suddenly appeared behind him and grabbed him within its palm.
"Run?" The sinister voice echoed again, "Do you think you can escape?"
This Ancient Ancestor was about to resist, but having been trapped in the underground palace for countless years, his body was weakened to the extreme. Now faced with such an almost unbeatable force, his resistance was like an ant clinging to a giant; the large hand didn’t even budge.
"None of you can escape!"
Suddenly, the sinister voice rang out next to everyone’s ear.
This time, not only the Ancient Ancestor who spoke earlier, but everyone who escaped from the underground palace heard this voice.
This is... the voice of Heaven Extinguishing Palace’s Palace Master Shang!
Many powerhouses soon discovered in shock that their shadows had transformed into large hands, binding them.
This was their own shadow!
This kind of strange ability, even Li Chen had never seen!
So when the shadows reached out to grab him, Li Chen couldn’t avoid it. Together with Ye Zhiqiu, they were bound by the shadows.
"What is this?!" Li Chen exclaimed in anger, his body ablaze with fervor.
Ye Zhiqiu’s expression slightly darkened, "This is one of Shang’s famed divine skills; Final Shadow Transformation!"
"Final Shadow Transformation is an unusual divine skill; theoretically, the stronger the shadow’s owner, the stronger the shadow becomes, and its binding power increases. Thus, this divine skill can almost be said to completely ignore rank. Shang relied on this mighty divine skill to defeat countless powerhouses, and become the Palace Master of Heaven Extinguishing Palace." Ye Zhiqiu explained.
"A mighty divine skill that ignores rank." Li Chen’s gaze flickered.
"Since it ignores rank, the corresponding threat is quite limited. Those bound by the shadows aren’t strong enough to break them, rather than the shadow truly being unbreakable."
Li Chen secretly activated his Power of Divine Abilities.
In reality, Li Chen’s actions, among so many people, were not noticeable at all.
Because even when bound by the shadows, this divine skill isn’t like those imprisoning types of divine skills like Locking Heaven and Earth. While bound, one can still use other might.
After all, to say that a Palm Realm powerhouse only knows a few punches and kicks would be underestimating him.
These people, upon discovering they were trapped, immediately unleashed powerful divine skills trying to forcefully break the shadow’s bind, and many directly summoned the Pseudo-Universe in hopes of using the Power of the Universe to crush the shadow.
In comparison, Li Chen’s minor action was really too inconspicuous among the mass.
"Interesting. A group of ignorant fools, still trying to struggle."
The icy voice came, and simultaneously, a heaven-shrouding giant hand covered the firmament, sweeping directly down.
Many hadn’t even reacted to what was happening before being crushed by the giant hand. Even before being fully pressed into the void below, they were shattered by the terrifying palm wind in the void.
Only a few fortunate escapees trembled as they looked at the direction where the giant hand had crushed down, hearts full of fear.
"Shang... is too terrifying. Even if we all joined forces, we couldn’t be his match!"
"Run quickly! We’re lucky to have escaped the dungeon this time; if caught by him again, we’re surely doomed to die!"
Escape!
At this moment, all the powerhouses who escaped from the underground palace had only one belief in their hearts.
Because they were completely frightened out of their wits by Shang.
Shang hadn’t even fully appeared yet, but he had already managed to kill them in a scattered mess. If this terrifying figure truly appeared before them, would they have any chance to run?
It wasn’t only them, even other powerhouses residing on Heaven Extinguishing Palace’s Divine Mountain were pondering this question.
While they stayed in Heaven Extinguishing Palace, it wasn’t out of complete trust in Shang; rather, they simply had nowhere better to go.
And having witnessed Shang’s terrifying powers, few expressed loyalty, instead becoming more vigilant towards Heaven Extinguishing Palace.
What if Shang decided to act against them one day; would they be able to resist?
Various reasons led these powerhouses residing on the Divine Mountain to neither assist nor try to stop.
A great escape ensued within Heaven Extinguishing Palace.
And Li Chen was undoubtedly one of the fastest runners in this great escape.
Yet, although he was the fastest among the escapees, someone was faster than him.
When Li Chen was about to reach the outer palace of Heaven Extinguishing Palace, a figure resembling a youth appeared at the entrance of the outer palace.
"Shang?!"
Upon seeing this figure, Li Chen’s steps abruptly halted.
"Heaven Extinguishing Palace Palace Master Shang?"
"Indeed, it’s me." The youth nodded with a smile.
But at this moment, Li Chen shook his head, "No, you’re not."
"You’re not Shang!" Li Chen’s pupils narrowed slightly.
While others might find it hard to discern the identity of the person before them, Li Chen could recognize it at a glance.
Just like the previous ’alter ego,’ this ’Shang’ was also a Doomsday Beast Soul!
The second soul!
