Chapter 648 A Ground Full of Feathers
Gu...
Several pairs of eyes of the Emerald Bird were suddenly dyed black.
This was an external manifestation of Its unusually intense emotions.
"Azure King... you're too arrogant!"
The Emerald Bird's beak slightly opened as it roared fiercely.
The plumage on Its head stood upright, if observed closely, every fiber on the feathers could be seen twisting wildly, like flames.
Whoosh!!
The Emerald Bird's tightly gripped staff suddenly thrust forward, carrying a spiraling wind pressure, piercing through the barrier of the Spirit World, drawing a black line as it straight descended towards Chen Lun's throat.
However, a speck of azure color was even faster.
Intercepted the staff in advance.
The Emerald Bird could see clearly, it was actually a corner of an azure robe!
The attire on the Azure King had somehow changed, the original formal suit vanished, replaced by a tattered gray-white robe with a rusty iron crown on his head.
That azure robe seemed to have a life of its own, swirling around, using its corner to block Its thrust!
Although the Emerald Bird's strength wasn't the top of the Worldly Secret Cult, it wasn't at the bottom either; even in ancient and modern Angels, it was considered first-class.
However, this strike was greatly diminished by the azure robe's obstruction, and when it reached the opponent's throat, terrifying sparks burst forth instantly.
Clink!!
The Emerald Bird clearly felt an extremely strange tremor from the tip of the staff, causing even Its own hand to go numb.
The touch was hard, not like flesh at all!
What It didn't know was that on Chen Lun's throat, an ancient crystalline scale had grown in advance, containing ancient Solar God, Dragon of Light's Mythical Creature Form "Ancient Dragon's Body," and mural god Clarence's "Crystalline Cells."
The Emerald Bird's strike didn't break through at all!
Just then.
The ancient lantern hanging from the crook of the staff suddenly burst into light.
The emerald rays swept and instantly landed on the Azure King.
Gah!
The Emerald Bird let out a peculiar laugh.
But the next second, It felt pain in Its neck, as the Azure King grasped Its hand with great force, followed by a punch.
Under the illumination of the misfortune light, the Azure King's face was sinister and ghastly green.
Bang!!!
In mid-air, emerald feathers burst like fireworks, slowly drifting down.
The Emerald Bird's body spun at high speed, cut through remnants, screeched, and plowed a straight trench several kilometers long on the Spirit World earth.
The rumbling lasted for dozens of seconds before it stopped.
The Emerald Bird crashed into a deep pit, Its head tilted a hundred and eighty degrees, blood flowing from the edge of Its beak, the right arm holding the staff twisted and broken backward, looking quite miserable.
Crack!
Its eyeballs rolled, astonished to see the lantern on the staff was full of cracks.
"Backlash?!"
The Emerald Bird endured the intense pain in Its neck and struggled to raise Its head, numerous pairs of bird eyes suddenly froze.
The Azure King was standing right in front of It!
He stood against the light, extending his large hand once again!
Slam!
The hand roughly grasped a full head of bird feathers, forcibly lifting It up.
"Why?! Why are you not affected by misfortune?!"
The Emerald Bird screamed in terror.
A sinister grin appeared on Chen Lun's face.
"Too noisy, you stupid bird."
Bam!!
Another punch landed squarely on the Emerald Bird's cheek.
Two eyes instantly burst, the sharp beak shattered, fragments flying everywhere.
Chen Lun wasn't affected by misfortune primarily because of His extreme mastery over His own Destiny, even far exceeding the standard of an Angel of Destiny.
Secondly, it's because this is the Spirit World!
As the master of the Spirit World controlling the Original Sin "No Return Land," being in His home ground, His status compares to a True God, why would the Emerald Bird be able to sway His fortune?
It was tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg!
It could be said that Chen Lun was the natural enemy of the Emerald Bird!
The "Ancient God of Misfortune," whom no one was willing to provoke, here only had a result of wagging Its tail and begging...
Bam!!
Another punch, wrapped in an incomparably concentrated repulsive force, heavily struck the Emerald Bird's chest and abdomen.
The airflow overflowed, a powerful shockwave rolling in all directions.
The deep pit expanded once again, the surrounding earth cracked and collapsed, raising a towering wave of dust.
The Emerald Bird's broken beak opened to an exaggerated extent, even Its tongue stuck out, blood gushing wildly, the remaining eyeballs protruding, filled with shock and anger.
"Original Sin 'No Return Land' initially created the Sorrow and Joy path's three major Sequences, and ancient gods like you of the Outland, and the Unique Divinity you hold, that is, the authority of 'Misfortune,' logically should belong to Destiny..."
Chen Lun raised his arm, holding the battered Emerald Bird, and said faintly.
"However, the result isn't so; have you ever thought about the reason for this, Mr. Emerald Bird? Is it possible... it is merely the scraps discarded by 'Destiny'?"
"Azure King!!"
The Emerald Bird was instantly infuriated by his mockery.
It roared, suddenly bursting out with terrifying power, breaking free from Chen Lun's hand, and then revealing Its true Mythical Creature Form.
Boom——
A bird hundreds of meters tall stood upon the Earth of the Spirit World.
It has thirteen heads arranged in a straight line, extending from the top of its head to its back... except for the main head, the other twelve bird heads gradually reduce in size, resembling a "cockscomb" growing on the main head, which is exceedingly eerie.
The verdant feathers covering its body are lush, and at the center of each feather is an eyeball, which rolls around, casting a malicious gaze over every corner.
As if that gaze could bring the world the vilest of misfortune.
After the Emerald Bird revealed its Mythical Creature Form, it suddenly discovered something incredibly bizarre—
The Azure King was gone!
The man who was clearly right in front of it just a second ago had vanished without a trace.
It can be a hundred percent certain the Azure King definitely did not leave the Spirit World or even stray far from this area, because in this split second, it couldn't feel any fluctuation of power at all.
"Come out! Get your ass out here now!!"
The Emerald Bird roared in a fury.
The thirteen heads simultaneously opened their sharp beaks and let out a piercing screech.
Rumble!!
It swung its body recklessly, using its two pillar-like bird legs to trample madly around, causing the ground to shake and mountains to sway, with smoke and dust rising high.
As its wings spread wide, emerald beams shot from each eyeball, sweeping indiscriminately across a range of several kilometers around.
Wherever the light touched, there followed a distortion.
Stones would crack or weather, the sky twisted, and the view tore apart.
Yet the Emerald Bird was completely unaware that a "tiny" figure had stood on its head from the beginning, calmly overlooking its actions.
Chen Lun used his "Secret" authority, combined with the Angel of Destiny's max-level skill "Untraceable," erasing his existence from all aspects of this world.
The Emerald Bird was completely oblivious.
It grew more and more restless, even feeling terrified.
As the master of the "Misfortune" authority, at this moment, it actually smelled an extremely intense "misfortune" scent on itself!
"What on earth is happening?! This is impossible... I am the 'God of Misfortune,' how could I be entangled in misfortune?!"
Panic boiled to the extreme within the Emerald Bird.
Chen Lun raised the ivory White Authority Staff in his hand, and as the staff squirmed, it silently transformed into an intricately carved Cross Sword.
Without a word, he half-closed his eyes and swung the sword downward.
The ghastly white sword light was like a curtain that covered the sun and sky, chopping down straight onto the Emerald Bird's head!
Clang!!!
When the pain descended, the Emerald Bird suddenly realized.
The Azure King had been standing on its head all along...
With a massive crashing sound.
Accompanied by a piercing, earth-shattering cry.
The Emerald Bird's thirteen heads, along with more than half of its body, were cleaved in half!
Blood poured down like a colossal wave, drenching the Earth of the Spirit World.
With its body and head blossoming to the sides like a flower bud, the Emerald Bird escaped in terror towards the front, shedding blood all the way.
It was on the verge of collapse and loss of control, consumed only by thoughts of fleeing for its life at this moment!
However, Chen Lun was always with it like a shadow, floating above the Emerald Bird.
He held the sword in one hand, while raising the other.
A black-as-ink hand lightly clenched into a fist and swung downward.
The concentrated repulsive force was like an invisible meteor, crashing down.
Thud!!!
The Emerald Bird's body abruptly halted, as if trampled by a giant foot, distorting and deforming on the spot, crashing down into a huge crater.
Mythical blood splattered across the "meteorite crater," its body convulsing instinctively, struggling unwillingly against death.
Silence reigned around, the Emerald Bird still hadn't discovered where the Azure King was.
Chen Lun was already standing at the edge of the deep pit, silently observing the miserable giant creature below.
'The Emerald Bird's various panel attributes are relatively average, around 1200, only the intelligence reaches the Angel rank threshold of 1500, not much different from my regular form, it may be an Ancient God, but its strength can definitely rival a seasoned Angel... But once I enter the "Pale King Form," every stat increases by eighty percent, with full firepower, I can definitely go head-to-head with Sub-God level Angels.'
He gazed down indifferently, thinking.
At this moment, a faint voice came from the bottom of the deep pit:
"Azure King... don't forget you are also a member of the Worldly Secret Cult, killing me would equate to betrayal, and the other Ancient Gods will see you as a mortal enemy..."
The Emerald Bird wailed.
Chen Lun transformed the Cross Sword back into a staff, lifted his hand, dispelling "Secret" and "Untraceable," revealing a cruel smile.
"Betrayal? You never considered me a companion in the first place, this time, you even teamed up with the Scroll Keeper and Dagon, trying to covet my authority... Of course, I never regarded you, just a bunch of wretches huddling together for survival."
As he spoke, he noticed that the split head and chest of the Emerald Bird were already filled with pale crystallization, and there were countless invisible threads continuously cutting and eroding its body.
"Spare me... I promise to serve you for a thousand years!"
The Emerald Bird, of course, also felt the changes in itself.
As its life force rapidly declined, it couldn't help but beg for mercy.
Chen Lun remained unmoved.
The Emerald Bird's fear intensified, shrieking once again:
"I submit to you, Azure King! Ten thousand years! I am willing to serve you for ten thousand years!"
Chen Lun took a step forward, blinking to the front of the Emerald Bird, looking at this mountain-like creature, he smiled.
"I still love your feathers, they're truly beautiful."
The Emerald Bird froze on the spot.
The next second, it roared like it had gone mad:
"No! No!! Don't kill me! Don't kill me!!"
