Chapter 604: Battle of Fate (7): Strange Changes

"How is this going?"

Above the Nine Sky Pearl, Xie Huan looked at a dark Nascent Soul quietly floating in the air not far away, snoring loudly.

With every rise and fall of breath, strange runes flowed on the body of the Nascent Soul.

Xie Huan was stunned.

The appearance of this Nascent Soul was exactly the same as the six Nascent Souls in his body, and the aura on its body was also familiar, it was the extremely evil aura of the magic box.

Just now, he noticed something unusual about the Nascent Soul in his body. There seemed to be one more, and it was black. He released it in a hurry, and saw this scene in front of him.

The seventh Yuanying...is still black.

Is this real?

Seeing that this black Yuanying was exactly the same as the six in his body except for the different skin color, Xie Huan finally dispelled his doubts.

All kinds of incomprehensible things are happening, and it is not difficult to accept the addition of a black Yuanying at this moment.

and……

There was a ripple in Xie Huan's eyes. His own realm also broke through inexplicably and he had already reached the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.

Not only was it in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, the powerful energy was rippling among the seven Nascent Souls, perfectly integrated with his body, and was still steadily increasing in strength.

"Are you going to attack the later stage?"

Xie Huan was secretly surprised.

The situation at this moment cannot be understood by common sense at all.

Moreover, this increase in energy in the body is more accurately described as an "evolution" rather than an "enhancement".

Because not only the energy, but even the physical body, Xie Huan also noticed strange changes, evolving towards a more powerful "direction".

The brutal killings all around did not concern him, because he knew that the battlefield here was not important.

The final victory or defeat will be decided by Wuming, Pan Na, as well as Shenyin, Chao and other powerful men.

Suddenly, Xie Huan sensed something and raised his hand.

A touch of golden color flows from the body, along the arm to the palm, and slowly turns into a golden flower, which is the true nature of self.

Words appear on each petal, and as they rotate quietly, it seems as if a scripture is slowly flowing out.

Xie Huan had seen these words before, but he didn't understand their meaning.

But what surprised him most at this moment was not the words, but the overall state of his true nature. It was dim and without light, as if it was silent. The gold on it did not have any luster, but it was not without energy. Xie Huan sensed it slightly and found that although the energy inside was not full, it was also sufficient.

This was the first time he had seen this state of true self-nature.

"In the end what happened……"

All these strange phenomena made it difficult for him, a person who had been reborn twice, to understand and deal with them.

Suddenly, Xie Huan sensed something again, his heart was shaken, and he reached into the air with his left hand, took out a ball of golden light from the storage magic weapon, and held it above his palm.

Xie Huan's pupils suddenly shrank, and he shot out two horrified glances.

Inside the golden ball of light was a strange object, like a piece of equipment, with an antique metal stand and a transparent blue crystal in the middle. It was surrounded by clouds and mist inside and outside, and there seemed to be countless stars flickering.

Around the crystal and the bracket are countless hair-thin threads, flashing colorful lights, entwining and shuttling through the air.

Xie Huan was shocked.

This thing...

In an instant, his mind raced as if he realized something.

Suddenly, a dangerous aura came, and a huge figure emerged from behind. It was the soul of a sea cultivator, an ancient shark. It bared its sharp teeth and pounced down. Its pupils turned into a blood moon in that instant.

Xie Huan's body shook. At this critical moment, he was bound by a spiritual force, which was the innate magical power of the shark spirit.

He flipped his hand to put the object away, then activated the holy body. The sound of breaking came within three feet around him, and all the mental restraints were broken. He turned around suddenly and punched the shark's soul.

An ancient roar came from the shark spirit's sharp teeth. The surrounding space was shattered by this huge bite force, forming an extremely terrifying strangling force that descended over Xie Huan.

Xie Huan's gaze was calm, but there were still ripples in his eyes.

It was not because of the power of the shark's soul, but because his own royal holy body seemed to have evolved.

He clearly felt that every muscle, bone, blood, and even cell in his body contained enough power to collapse mountains and split rocks, as if his entire body was made of divine iron.

With one punch, a dull roar broke out, as if an ancient bell was struck.

This is a change in physical sensation, and the surface of the body not only has a metallic luster, but also runes containing power and rules continue to appear.

Xie Huan let out a light shout, and all the power he had sensed surged out again, like thousands of horses galloping in his body, quickly rushing into this punch, causing the power to rise terrifyingly.

"boom!"

The force of the punch penetrated into the shark's soul's twisted force, and a transparent vortex visible to the naked eye quickly appeared, then quickly spread out and turned into a huge vacuum area.

The twisting force was completely wiped out.

The shark spirit's blood moon eye suddenly shrank, shooting out two glances of horror and fear.

That punch not only neutralized the force of his attack, but also hit him in a way that was beyond his comprehension, causing severe pain on his face.

"Oh!"

Before the shark's soul could think about it, its entire head was pierced through the middle and then exploded completely.

He didn't even have time to scream before he turned into a headless corpse, fell backwards, and then his whole body shattered and dissipated as energy.

A scream like a pig being slaughtered was heard not far away. A skinny old man dressed in blue covered his face in pain. His features could not be seen clearly. He struggled violently for a few times, his voice became weak, and he fell from the air.

It was the real body of the shark spirit, a sea cultivator in the God Transformation Stage, who was killed by Xie Huan with just one punch.

Xie Huan calmly retracted his fist and looked at his arm.

After sensing the changes in this holy body and the enormous power within it, he knew very well that he could kill the deity with one punch.

It's just that this power came too fast and too unexpectedly.

Some time ago, he had to rely on six Nascent Souls to fight against the early stage of the Spirit Transformation.

It didn't take long before he was killed with one punch.

Even though he had an extremely strong mental state, he still felt a bit shocked.

Moreover, this physical change seemed to be brought about not only by the holy body, but also related to the immortal body. He even vaguely felt that it was related to Pei Hua's own body.

But all of this is not important at this moment, what is important is...

Just as he was about to take out the object again, a more powerful and dangerous aura suddenly descended and locked onto him.

"Oh, you're quite impressive. It seems I underestimated you before."

A familiar voice came.

What followed was a terrifying pressure as solid as a mountain and as solid as a rock, as if endless mountains and rivers had gathered together and pressed down on Xie Huan.

Xie Huan's face darkened slightly.

Not far ahead, a round figure appeared and slowly became more solid.

It was Rui Hai, the leader of the Wise Turtle Clan and one of the Coral Throne Councilors who wanted to capture him. Rui Hai held a cane in his hand, looked at Xie Huan jokingly, and said, "It is simply against the will of heaven to be able to kill a god with ancient blood. It seems that Lord Pan's respect for you is not without reason. However, you are a smart person and should understand the gap between you and me. Do you want to surrender yourself, or do you want me to do it myself?"

Xie Huan glanced at the battlefield in the distance. Although a large number of high-level members of the Sea Clan were missing, the Human Clan, the Lingbo Royal Clan, and the Guming Royal Clan were also missing people. His side was still at a disadvantage.

Fortunately, the disappearance of the tide meant that the sense of oppression on the part of the sea people was not as strong as before.

"Those people are already trapped in a jar. It's only a matter of time before they are all wiped out. Don't even think you can escape this time."

Rui Hai said with a smile.

"Isn't the turtle yourself?"

Xie Huan asked back.

Rui Hai's face darkened, and he said angrily: "I am from the Wise Turtle Clan. A turtle is a turtle, and a tortoise is a tortoise. Don't lump me in with those inferior creatures!"

"No difference."

Xie Huan said lightly.

"It seems you insist on me taking action!"

Rui Hai was furious and shouted, "Just now I saw you use your Taijutsu fist to kill the blue shark, how about trying my fist, can you take it?!"

He gently extended his skinny right fist forward.

A large number of runes emerged from the tortoise shell, and the mountain-like energy quickly condensed on the tip of the fist. The surrounding scene changed drastically, like a stirred lake, making it difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion.

Xie Huan was instantly locked in by this punch.

A huge tortoise shell phantom appeared around him, like an independent space, suppressing him inside. Not only was his whole body unable to move, he couldn't even breathe.

As the fist approached, dense cracks appeared in the space and spread out like a spider web.

His body also began to break down.

"Wouldn't it be less merit if I were killed?"

Xie Huan shouted.

"It doesn't matter anymore!"

Ruihai laughed grimly.

Xie Huan knew that there was no other way and he could only bear it. The holy body power he had previously burst out again, and his skin showed a metallic luster and runes flowed. He even felt that his bones had turned into a crystal-like existence.

At the same time, stars twinkled between the eyebrows, forming a constellation pattern.

Suddenly, the power of the immortal body surged throughout his body and merged with the power of the holy body.

Xie Huan gained a stronger physical strength than the one he had just used to kill the shark spirit. His body shook violently, loosening the tortoise shell restraints. He suddenly raised his hands forward and used his palms to block.

At the same time, a black shadow flashed on his body, and he transformed into an ink-scale armor.

Moreover, a battle robe flew out from the ring and spread out in the air. It was the undefeated robe that Wuming gave him, and it swirled around his body.

Rui Hai's pupils contracted violently as he stared at Xie Huan's brows and the undefeated robe, revealing a greedy look that then turned into even greater ruthlessness and murderous intent.

"Boom!"

The two forces collided and quickly pressed towards Xie Huan.

The difference in realm is really too great.

The members of the Coral Conference are all in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm or even at the peak. They are simply not something that can be stopped by those in the Nascent Soul Realm, even if that person is Xie Huan and even if he possesses a top-level magic weapon.

"Oh!"

The black scale armor on Xie Huan's body couldn't hold on first and began to crack.

The light on the undefeated robe became weaker and weaker, and it was directly draped over the body.

Then came the feeling of his body. Xie Huan felt as if every cell in his body was under pressure from an immense force and was about to collapse at any moment.

He was actually very clear about the gap between the two of them, but there was nothing he could do except to block it head-on.

Xie Huan used a wisp of spiritual consciousness to lock onto his true nature, intending to revive with full blood at the moment of death, and then use his escape technique to escape.

Suddenly, he had an idea and thought of the object, which was still in his storage magic weapon, and his mind flowed over there.

The object seemed to be sensitive to something. The faint light on it flickered, and a strand of silk thread inexplicably flowed out from the crystal ball, wrapped around Xie Huan's arm, and spread forward.

Xie Huan's heart was pounding.

At this critical moment of life and death, he was completely focused and attracted by the thread, staring at it intently.

"Farewell, Master Panzu's hated enemy."

Rui Hai's face was full of playful murderous intent. Feeling the failure of Xie Huan's resistance, he added more strength and attacked with a devastating force, trying to crush Xie Huan completely.

"Oh!"

There was a huge noise between the two men, and blood splattered in the sky.

A round figure was violently knocked away.

Rui Hai: “?”

It was him who was knocked flying!

Ruihai was completely confused and stood in a daze in the air, his brain completely shut down.

what happened?

where am I?
What just happened?
This scene made him even more confused than the previous one.

His full-strength attack was actually countered by Xie Huan, and he was seriously injured?
Xie Huan was standing not far away, without moving at all, and his body was spotless, which meant that his attack did not cause any harm to the opponent, and he was severely injured by the counterattack.

Ruihai opened his mouth in shock.

Suddenly he looked down at his body, his whole body trembled, and he reached behind him fiercely, and the tortoise shell was taken off like a shield and held in his hand.

"what happened?!"

When Ruihai saw his own shell, he screamed in fear as if he had seen a ghost.

His back shell was originally flaming with red gold patterns, but now it turned dark, like a large stone, covered with winding spiritual patterns.

"No! No! Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! It must be an illusion!"

Rui Hai screamed like crazy, his eyes turned red, and he roared, "It must be an illusion, you are hallucinating me!"

"Uh... look at your own cultivation."

Xie Huan frowned and looked at him, holding his chin with one hand, and fell into thought.

Rui Hai was suddenly shocked, and then he realized that his cultivation had fallen from the peak of the Spirit Transformation to the early stage of the Spirit Transformation without him noticing!

No wonder he couldn't withstand Xie Huan's attack and was seriously injured by the counterattack.

Rui Hai quickly realized that this was not an illusion, but something incomprehensible really happened, just like the Nine Heavens Pearl hitting the mother pearl just now.

In great fear, he suddenly remembered an incident from the past...
