The Fall of War King Jingpu

Judging by all of War King Jingpu’s actions, he was clearly a man of deep cunning. To deliberately draw him out would be to expose oneself—his plans would be far less effective.

Xiao Chen and the two Evil Kings were not impatient. The region they had chosen was a route the War King had to pass. Whether he went to contact the Demon Ape King or the Scorpion King, he would have to come this way. Even the sky had been seeded with spatial traps by the Death Spirit King and the Zombie King. Now all they had to do was wait.

Time passed. A day and a night later, War King Jingpu finally appeared. He felt that the Yellow Diamond Skeleton King had likely met with trouble—why else would he disappear for so long without returning? Thus, he came out to search.

The War Clan were born battle saints. War King Jingpu’s towering War Body was as solid as a mountain. He streaked across the sky like a dazzling demon star, his emanating aura causing the creatures of the ancient ruins to tremble.

“He’s here…”

Xiao Chen and the two Evil Kings vanished into the void.

War King Jingpu’s eyes shot cold lightning, sharp as blades, as he flew at extreme speed. His long green hair whipped wildly, making him look like a world-covering demon. A terrifying aura spread across the land.

He was not only terrifying in battle but also deep and scheming—an exceptionally difficult alien king to deal with.

Yet no matter how cunning he was, he could never have imagined that while flying through an apparently empty sky with a clear view in all directions, he would fall into a death trap.

In that instant, he suddenly felt a sense of weightlessness. His body became as heavy as ten thousand jun and plummeted at a terrifying speed. The surroundings changed dramatically. The azure sky turned pitch-black. The open wilderness was suddenly covered in white bones, and baleful energy shot to the heavens.

He had been completely transported to another world!

War King Jingpu felt his body no longer under his control. The aura of death enveloped him. The howls of ten thousand evil spirits rang in his ears. His unyielding War Body rapidly weakened. In that brief moment, a full tenth of his life essence was drained away.

He had suffered a great loss without warning. This was an undead curse, spread throughout the spatial trap—vicious beyond compare, specifically designed to devour a person’s life energy.

“Ah…”

War King Jingpu’s green hair stood on end. He roared to the heavens, his voice splitting metal and stone, tearing the void. He was furious beyond measure. To have been ambushed and suffer such a loss—how could he let this go?

Light blazed from his body in ten thousand rays, erupting with a tyrannical aura like an avalanche. The beams from his eyes stretched several meters long as he coldly swept his gaze across all directions. Then he punched, shattering the void, and soared upward, trying to break free from this mysterious realm.

But what awaited him was the howl of death. No sooner had he escaped the spatial trap than he plunged into a shadow of death. Mist roiled, darkness shrouded everything, and countless undead wailed and howled, rushing toward him all at once.

Thousands upon thousands of evil spirits surged forward, drowning the sky where he stood. In the darkness, only the screaming of specters filled the air, making even the soul tremble.

“All of you, perish!”

War King Jingpu was enraged. The evil spirits gnawed at his soul, trying to divide his vast spiritual power.

Brilliant light coiled around his body. Boundless combat power erupted, sweeping away the evil ghosts around him, annihilating them in rows until they were nothing but ash.

Bursting out of that shadow of death, War King Jingpu saw a sea of blood ahead. An endless tide of blood surged toward him like a vast ocean, roaring with the sound of wind and thunder. The sky was filled with a tragic red. The sea of blood drowned him, attempting to corrode his War Body.

Without a doubt, this was a chain-killing formation designed specifically for him. Within the surging blood sea, there were actually deathly creatures. With a crack, they seized his limbs, gripping his entire body, trying to tear him apart. Five blood corpses of immense strength nearly ripped the War King to pieces. Blood light shot to the heavens, and the blood sea churned violently.

“All of you, die!”

With a great roar from War King Jingpu, the five blood corpses exploded. But the blood within the War King’s body boiled like a volcano, seeping out through his skin. The blood sea forcibly extracted a portion of his essence blood from his body.

The War King’s face was dark as death. His eyes swept the surroundings like a wild beast, searching for the enemies who had set this killing trap.

“Boom!”

He shattered the blood sea with his overbearing combat power, splitting the high heavens. The blood sea parted, revealing a stretch of open ground.

War King Jingpu tore through the void again and rushed upward. But as he burst out, he found himself in yet another new battlefield. Here, corpse qi flooded the sky. A dark army of zombies spewed corpse poison, darkening heaven and earth. All the zombies brandished their ghost claws and rushed toward him together.

He was utterly enraged!

A chain of killing moves, one after another—if this continued, even he would be exhausted to death.

War King Jingpu’s wild hair flew. In his hand, a startling rainbow light suddenly burst forth. A battle spear as red as blood, gleaming with an eerie radiance, constantly dripped divine blood. It slanted toward the high heavens, radiating a murderous aura that shook heaven and earth.

The Basde Ancient Spear in hand, War King Jingpu swept in all directions, wielding it like a great saber. The battle spear stained with Half-Ancestor blood was indestructible. It erupted with a blinding, eerie blood light. Wherever it passed, the zombies shattered, then utterly disintegrated into nothing.

“You in the shadows—not one of you will survive!” War King Jingpu shouted. He knew that setting up so many forbidden arrays could not be the work of one person.

But the deathly forbidden arrays were far more numerous than he expected. As soon as he broke free of the zombie death array, a blazing radiance swept toward him—this was actually a god-slaying forbidden technique…

The powerful War King seemed trapped in an endless loop. He would break out of one absolute formation only to fall into another deathly killing field. His life energy and combat power were constantly being drained.

This was enough to show how powerful and terrifying War King Jingpu was. With the Basde Ancient Spear in hand, he slaughtered in all directions. Almost every swing of the ancient spear shattered a killing formation as he charged and fought through the death fields. Yet he still could not escape. This entire region was filled with killing formations and death traps, completely drowning him.

One had to say that the forbidden arts of the death system were utterly vicious. War King Jingpu’s strength was continually weakened. Essence blood was repeatedly drawn from his body, and his life energy gradually drained away.

After being trapped in the death killing fields for a full half-hour, War King Jingpu finally saw the light of escape.

But at that moment, Xiao Chen, the Zombie King, and the Death Spirit King struck. The three moved like specters, swift and silent.

The Death Spirit King, truly like a ghost, soundlessly reached behind the War King and pressed his yin-cold palm force against him. The Zombie King spat out a mass of black corpse qi essence and faced Jingpu head-on. Xiao Chen also activated the Origin Heavenly Sound, bombarding the War King’s head.

The blood-red Basde Spear erupted with terrible blood light, sweeping across all directions.

“Bam bam bam!”

The three kings charged from three directions but were all knocked back. The destructive force forced them to retreat. The blood-dripping Basde Ancient Spear was entirely crimson, covered in ancient divine inscriptions. It shot out dazzling blood rays, dyeing the entire sky red, and drove back three mighty experts.

The terrifying War Clan supreme!

But the three had long prepared themselves mentally and were not overly shocked.

Now, the four mighty fighters were in a special realm. Black demonic clouds covered the sky, and white bones covered the ground—this was where they would decide life and death.

Although the ancient spear in War King Jingpu’s hand was invincible, his own combat strength had already dropped to a low point. In the earlier death killing fields, he had suffered countless death curses.

The most obvious sign was that one of his arms had turned pitch-black, seemingly unable to withstand the excessive power. Moreover, due to the curses, his movements were clearly not as swift as before.

The Death Spirit King was the most yin-cold and venomous. He could travel between deathly shadows and the real world, appearing several times behind War King Jingpu and unleashing deadly strikes.

The fierce life-and-death battle truly began.

War King Jingpu’s green hair flew wildly, like a world-covering demon. His gaze was as sharp as a blade, chilling to the bone. He roared in rage, “Even if I die, I will drag you all down with me!” He had originally planned to trick the little white beast and poison it, but instead, he had been ambushed himself. The fury in his heart burned to the extreme.

But one had to admit that despite being struck by multiple death curses, War King Jingpu, with the Basde Ancient Spear in hand, was still terrifying. Especially when his aura of “I alone am supreme” erupted, he seemed reborn from fire, his combat power surging wildly.

“Ah…”

War King Jingpu roared. Enduring a yin palm strike from the Death Spirit King, he stabbed forward with the blood-red spear and actually pierced the Zombie King through. He lifted him into the air and shook violently. With a crack, the Zombie King shattered into four parts.

The Death Spirit King sensed something was wrong. This War King was far too powerful. He immediately thought of retreat.

But at that moment, a flash of light revealed a tall corpse shadow behind the War King. A ghost claw swiped out. Even though Jingpu dodged quickly, a chunk of flesh was torn from his back.

It was the Zombie King, roaring, “You dare destroy one of my puppet bodies? I will fight you to the death!”

Hearing this, the Death Spirit King, who had been about to flee, immediately flew back. Xiao Chen’s heart also steadied, and they began to surround War King Jingpu again.

This was a bitter, brutal battle. The four directions shook. All four mighty fighters were severely wounded.

If the War King had not been afflicted by curses and greatly hindered in his movements, otherwise, with the Basde Ancient Spear in his control, Xiao Chen and the two Evil Kings would have had no chance at all.

“Come to hell with me!” War King Jingpu thrust the blood-red spear toward the Death Spirit King’s chest; it seemed impossible to dodge.

The Death Spirit King opened his Heroic Spirit Realm and flashed inside. The War King knew that today would likely end badly for him. Without pausing, he chased directly inside.

With a screech, the sharp blood edge of the battle spear shot out a dazzling blood light, instantly shredding one of the Death Spirit King’s arms. But at that moment, within the Heroic Spirit Realm, sacred soul shadows rushed forward, drowning the War King.

“Roar!”

War King Jingpu shouted, actually shattering those soul shadows. One had to know that the Demon Ape King had died here earlier. This showed how powerful the evil spirits in the Heroic Spirit Realm were. Yet now they could not hold back the War King. He swung the Basde Ancient Spear, shattering the void, killing a wave of evil spirits, and burst out.

“The power of the curse is taking effect. He is already at the end of his strength. Attack together and kill him!” The Death Spirit King, having had an arm shattered, trembled with fury and shock, charging again at War King Jingpu.

Xiao Chen had been struck several times by the Basde Ancient Spear. His Yellow Diamond bone body had developed terrifying cracks, but he still did not retreat. He was waiting for the final, killing opportunity.

Just then, the Zombie King roared and charged straight forward. With a screech, he was pierced by the Basde Ancient Spear again, but his corpse body kept surging forward, both ghost claws slamming into the War King.

This was ruthless, indeed. But with the War King’s cry of “Time, flow backward!” the Zombie King finally shattered.

Of course, this was another puppet body of the Zombie King. His true body manifested nearby, hopping mad. He had three puppet bodies, each able to die in his place, yet in this battle, two had been destroyed.

“Time, flow backward!” the War King shouted.

The Death Spirit King and Xiao Chen, who had been charging forward, had to retreat swiftly.

With the Basde War Spear and the Time Divine Law in hand, killing the War King was truly very difficult. But Xiao Chen and the others were unwilling to retreat far. The War King was already very weak. This was a rare opportunity—to miss it would be hard to find again.

The arduous battle began again.

All four were severely wounded.

When the Death Spirit King and the Zombie King were resisting the Time Flow Backward divine art and the Basde Ancient Spear, Xiao Chen finally found his opportunity. He took out the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree. It transformed into a golden rainbow as he charged forward.

By intuition, he knew the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree was inferior to the Basde Ancient Spear. That was why he had waited until this critical moment to suddenly reveal it and use it as a surprise attack.

War King Jingpu sensed the danger. Enduring the attacks of the Death Spirit King and the Zombie King, he struck at Xiao Chen with the Time Flow Backward divine art. At the same time, the blood-red Basde Spear stabbed fiercely forward. Blood-colored light enveloped the space.

But at the same moment, seven-colored radiance shone. This time, Xiao Chen did not retreat. He used the Treasures Tree to block the Basde Ancient Spear and the Weng Sound Technique to resist the Time Flow Backward divine art.

He closed in rapidly. His Yellow Diamond bone palm sliced like a blade, aiming straight for War King Jingpu’s neck.

The War King was furious and shocked. He swung his palm to meet the strike.

But the Death Spirit King and the Zombie King also saw this excellent opportunity. How could they let it pass? They attacked from left and right, slamming directly into his shoulders.

“Pu!”

Blood spurted. Xiao Chen’s Yellow Diamond bone palm cut through War King Jingpu’s throat. A spray of blood gushed out. At the same moment, the War King’s left palm also plunged into Xiao Chen’s chest. But that was a bone body after all—even if it pierced through, it did not matter. However, the War King was ruthless. He shook violently, snapping two of Xiao Chen’s sternum bones on the spot.

Enduring the pain, Xiao Chen retreated, storing the two broken bones in his spatial ring.

War King Jingpu’s eyes grew unfocused. His neck was nearly severed, only a layer of skin and flesh still connecting it. Blood gushed out in torrents. But he still did not die. He clutched the Basde Ancient Spear tightly, glaring at the three kings.

The Death Spirit King and the Zombie King looked at Xiao Chen in shock, then at the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree in his hand. The greed in their eyes was undisguised. But in the end, they both charged at the dying War King at the same time, trying to seize the Basde Ancient Spear.

Just then, the demon-cloud-covered sky shattered. A golden giant hand reached into this sealed battlefield, blotting out the sky, also reaching for the Basde Ancient Spear.

The War King was enraged. He let out a final, unwilling roar. Lifting the blood-red battle spear with both hands, he thrust it at the Death Spirit King and the Zombie King, as well as the enormous golden hand in the sky.

Xiao Chen wanted no unexpected developments. At this point, nothing could stop him from killing the War King. He transformed into a dazzling golden rainbow and shot straight through.

Blood light shot to the heavens. The dying War King’s head was taken by Xiao Chen.
