The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron

Chapter 1949: Chapter 2046: Life and Death Determined with One Palm

Only the Hidden Kill Hall Master’s body turned into a black smoke, fluttering away, and wasn’t physical.

Hou Yi looked up at the boundless black screen, a faint sneer at the corner of his lips.

"Such tricks, I’ve seen them before," Hou Yi said, as he charged directly into the black screen.

The next moment, countless dark hands reached out, attempting to capture Hou Yi, but they were incinerated by the golden flames suddenly erupting from Hou Yi’s body when they got close.

Moreover, the surrounding dark rays seemed to fear the golden flames on Hou Yi, as wherever Hou Yi went, the black screen dissipated immediately.

"Won’t you show yourself already?" Hou Yi shouted, as a sky full of golden fire swept in all directions, like a surging wave, completely dispelling the heaven-covering darkness.

The Hidden Kill Hall Master’s figure was forced to reveal itself, the injuries caused by the Dragon Bones Bow had healed considerably but still appeared rough.

Seeing the Hidden Kill Hall Master finally revealed his true body, Hou Yi naturally would not miss the opportunity, moving instantly to stand before the Hidden Kill Hall Master.

Bang!!!

A punch was thrown, the Hidden Kill Hall Master tried desperately to withstand it, but was still unable to match Hou Yi’s incredibly strong physique, resulting in broken arms and a solid punch to the chest.

The Hidden Kill Hall Master’s body fell, spitting a mouthful of blood, only to see the nine suns on the sky showering their fiery light simultaneously upon him, and in an instant, his injuries almost fully recovered.

Hou Yi looked up, coldly glancing at the extra nine suns, then once again drew the Dragon Bones Bow, aiming at one of the suns.

Thereupon, the nine suns fell into panic, scrambling away to other directions, unwilling to face Hou Yi.

After all, Hou Yi had once shot down those nine suns, and now wanting to shoot the suns again, naturally the nine suns would fear him.

The Hidden Kill Hall Master didn’t give Hou Yi a chance to shoot the suns, and directly rushed in front of Hou Yi, attacking with both palms.

Helplessly, Hou Yi had to punch to dissolve the Hidden Kill Hall Master’s attack, leaving no opportunity to shoot down those extra nine suns.

Yet this posed a bit of trouble, because if the nine suns continued to exist on the firmament, they would endlessly provide life energy to the Mountain Tu’s ancient spirit incarnations.

Thus, to destroy any ancient spirit incarnation would be greatly more difficult, unless the nine suns were first vanquished, cutting off the life source of the ancient spirit incarnations.

But the Hidden Kill Hall Master clearly wouldn’t give Hou Yi such a chance. The presence of the nine suns concerned whether the actual Mountain Tu ancient spirit could awaken, even if their incarnations all died, the nine suns must be ensured to continue existing.

"Going all out to protect those nine three-legged feathered freaks, then let me send you on your way first," Hou Yi sneered, carrying the Dragon Bones Bow on his back, fully relying on his twin fists to battle the Hidden Kill Hall Master.

Boom Boom Boom Boom!!!

The battle between two pinnacle warriors, and such unrestricted combat was simply earth-shattering, with the thousands of miles surrounding Ancient Demon Ridge nearly turning to scorched earth, and not a living thing to be seen.

The reason Ancient Demon Ridge survived was due to the Demon Clan’s Sacred Tree, which, for some unknown reason, emitted a golden light at this moment, enveloping the entire Ancient Demon Ridge, allowing it to survive the aftermath of the battle between the two mighty forces.

Without the protection of the Demon Clan’s Sacred Tree, the Ancient Demon Ridge would have been destroyed under the terrible aftermath, leaving not even a trace.

The Hidden Kill Hall Master was indeed strong, as one of the Ancient Spirit Incarnations, unlike the first-generation Demon Saint with many restrictions, he possessed the peak strength of yesteryears, though he couldn’t rival Hou Yi’s supreme physique, the endless life energy from the nine suns allowed him to fight Hou Yi evenly.

But soon, the Hidden Kill Hall Master began to struggle, as Hou Yi’s physique was too formidable, and the speed at which life energy replenished couldn’t keep up.

The Hidden Kill Hall Master, faced with Hou Yi’s relentless aggression, was slowly being forced into a corner, only able to defend, not counterattack.

However, the Hidden Kill Hall Master also understood that he alone couldn’t defeat Hou Yi, his current goal was to buy time, awaiting another Ancient Spirit Incarnation’s arrival, and then with the two incarnations teaming up and the nine suns assisting, they could kill Hou Yi as they did back then.

Hou Yi was naturally aware of the Hidden Kill Hall Master’s intentions, relentlessly striking him, causing harm repeatedly.

Meanwhile, a colossal demon beast finally arrived from the Seven Seas to the Nine Countries, making its way directly towards Ancient Demon Ridge.

Though the colossal demon beast was huge, its speed was not slow, like a mountain running swiftly, and each step shook the earth violently.

Both Hou Yi and the Hidden Kill Hall Master undoubtedly sensed the approaching demon beast, Hou Yi showed a hint of gloom, while the Hidden Kill Hall Master appeared pleased, feeling reassured.

"Hou Yi, if we could kill you once before, today we can kill you a second time," the Hidden Kill Hall Master said coldly.

Hou Yi’s face remained expressionless, glancing at the intact Ancient Demon Ridge not far away, he sighed helplessly.

"No choice," Hou Yi muttered to himself, then suddenly, the golden light around him shone brighter than ever.

Right after, Hou Yi grasped at the air, seemingly grabbing something.

The Hidden Kill Hall Master’s expression changed drastically, feeling a tearing pain at his chest, as a heart burst forth from his body, flying directly to Hou Yi’s hand.

Poof!

Hou Yi crushed the Hidden Kill Hall Master’s heart, while the golden light rushed into the blood hole in the Hidden Kill Hall Master’s chest.

"What did you do?" the Hidden Kill Hall Master exclaimed in shock, trying to block the golden light from entering his body but realizing the light was formless and intangible, making it impossible to stop.

Hou Yi’s figure seemed to dim, his body appeared to be disintegrating, yet his expression remained calm, utterly unconcerned about his supreme physique, which he had painstakingly restored but was now fading.

"The Demon Clan’s Sacred Tree’s power, akin to the yin-yang forces of the world, one brings life, the other extinction. Only by grasping the truth between the two can these powers be wielded. Do you think the force entering your body is life or extinction?" Hou Yi said matter-of-factly.
