Nine Regions Sword Emperor

Chapter 7158 Heaven and Earth as a Chessboard
Chu Fengmian had previously witnessed the Shadow God and the Radiant Blade Saint fighting.

The shadow god before me.

It was also summoned by the seven strongest beings of Shadow City working together.

However, his power was far greater than when he fought Yao Daosheng; the two were no longer comparable.

The change in the Shadow God's power was actually due to the appearance of the man in the sky just now.

Chu Fengmian looked up at the sky again, where the sky, torn apart by killing intent, had healed once more, as if nothing had happened.

However, the changes in the Shadow God's power before his eyes were a reminder to Chu Fengmian that everything he had just seen was not an illusion, but a real existence.

The man bound by countless tentacles is very likely the true Shadow God, the Shadow God's true form, while the Shadow God before us is merely an avatar, a projection of his power.

That's why his appearance caused the Shadow God's power to surge.

Such power was beyond Chu Fengmian's ability to handle.

The Shadow God is extremely powerful, and its regenerative ability is far superior to that of the Shadow City's strongest warriors who have incorporated the power of lifelessness.

It is a truly immortal and indestructible being. Apart from the power of the origin of creation, it is impossible to truly harm the Shadow God, let alone kill him.

Chu Fengmian originally planned to kill more Shadow Gods to weaken their power, and then use the power of the Origin of Creation to completely kill them.

With Chu Fengmian unleashing both swords, he had just nearly driven Shadow God into a desperate situation.

But Chu Fengmian did not expect that the Shadow God would tear the sky apart and summon the man.

Even the people in Shadow City seemed unaware of the man's existence.

The moment the bound man appeared in the sky, the strongest figures from Shadow City present also showed shock in their eyes.

Even the high-ranking members and top experts of Shadow City were unaware of the man's existence. Even Qingying, the deputy city lord of Shadow City, was not aware of it. Their shocked expressions were genuine.

Clearly, even the higher-ups of these Shadow Cities didn't know the true nature of the Shadow God.

Now that the man has appeared, the Shadow God's strength has greatly increased, making it impossible to kill him now.

Since that's the case, Chu Fengmian has no intention of getting entangled with this Shadow God any further.

He originally intended to kill the Shadow God and follow the clues to find out the Shadow God's true nature, but the appearance of that man had far exceeded Chu Fengmian's expectations.

With the Heavenly Fate Tower Bead in hand and Chu Fengmian having also discovered the true form of the Shadow God, Chu Fengmian had achieved his goal for this trip, and there was no need for him to continue entangled with the Shadow God.

"go!"

Chu Fengmian glanced deeply at the sky above, at the sky that had recovered, and then retreated several steps, using his escape light to fly away into the distance.

"Is this person trying to escape?"

"Stop him!"

The changes in the Shadow God caught even the strongest Shadow City warriors present somewhat off guard.

However, now that Shadow God's strength has greatly increased, it is the best opportunity to kill Chu Fengmian.

The moment he saw Chu Fengmian unleash his escape technique, the Eastern Shadow General made the first move. He was the strongest, and although he had lost some power in summoning the Shadow God, he had now recovered most of it. The Eastern Shadow General transformed into a shadow and immediately rushed towards Chu Fengmian. The shadow was so fast that it directly blocked Chu Fengmian's path.

Within this shadow, countless pitch-black chess pieces suddenly appeared, and the entire world seemed to transform into a giant chessboard, with Chu Fengmian at its very center.

No matter which direction Chu Fengmian's escape light wanted to flee in, it could not escape the range of this chessboard. Countless black chess pieces blocked Chu Fengmian's way.

"Heaven and earth are the chessboard!"

Dongying Shenjiang looked at Chu Fengmian with icy eyes.

As long as Chu Fengmian stays in the same spot, this chessboard will not cause him any harm.

However, the reason why Dongying Shenjiang used this move was to buy time and to trap Chu Fengmian in this chessboard.

Because Chu Fengmian's real enemy is the Shadow God, all they need to do is stop Chu Fengmian.

After the Eastern Shadow God made his move, the other supreme experts of Shadow City also understood this. They only needed to delay Chu Fengmian, and with the current strength of the Shadow God, he would definitely be able to kill Chu Fengmian.

Previously, Shadow City had set a trap to lure Chu Fengmian into the Shadow Heaven-Slaying Formation, but they were unable to kill him or allow him to escape.

This time, Chu Fengmian's proactive appearance and confrontation with the Shadow God gave them another excellent opportunity to kill him.

"Trying to stop me?"

Looking at the chessboard that appeared beneath his feet and the black pieces in front of him, a cold glint flashed in Chu Fengmian's eyes.

This Shadow God is indeed difficult to deal with, but he is not the strongest among these Shadow Cities, and they can't stop him.

"Nine Realms! Bloodbath!"

Chu Fengmian raised the Bloodthirsty Demon Sword high, let out a cold shout, and boundless killing intent gathered on the blade of the Bloodthirsty Demon Sword, crashing down towards the front of him.

As a blood-red sword light slashed out from the blade and swept across the area, the black chess pieces shattered and were destroyed one by one.

In the blink of an eye, the black chess pieces in front of Chu Fengmian shattered one after another. Although each of these black chess pieces possessed the power to withstand the strongest opponent.

Even if a supreme expert were to go all out, it would be difficult to defeat him in a single blow.

However, in the face of Chu Fengmian's killing sword, all the black chess pieces shattered wherever the blood-red sword light passed, unable to withstand Chu Fengmian's sword light at all. They crumbled and dissipated like soil, completely destroyed by a single sword strike.

Chu Fengmian watched this scene coldly, took a step forward, and once again used his escape technique to fly away.

But just as Chu Fengmian unleashed his escape technique, countless black chess pieces materialized once again before him.

These black chess pieces blocked Chu Fengmian's path. No matter how Chu Fengmian's escape light changed, there were always black chess pieces blocking his way.

"You won't get away from my chessboard so easily!"

Dongying Shenjiang looked at Chu Fengmian with icy eyes, a cold smile appearing on his lips.

The greatest strength of the Eastern Shadow General is not in direct combat, but in the countless techniques he has mastered, making him extremely difficult to deal with.

Like this chessboard, even a top-tier expert would find it difficult to escape once inside. These black chess pieces are inherently difficult to break, and as long as the chessboard remains, these black chess pieces are endless. Even if destroyed, they can be reassembled once more.
