Before his death, Pu Caijun's eyes were filled with shock, anger, and regret. He clearly never expected to fall here, defeated by what he perceived as mere ants.
"I am unwilling..." A wave of unwillingness emanated from his soul. Pu Caijun's body erupted, bursting into a mist of blood, raining down in a bloody shower. With a crash, blood rained from the sky, each drop containing terrifying power capable of slaying emperors.
However, this blood mist barely splashed far before being completely devoured by the mysterious rusty sword, which emitted a bloody halo, letting out a sharp cry, as if filled with extreme excitement, buzzing and trembling, unable to settle.
Puff! Opposite him, Qin Chen spat out a mouthful of blood, his head spinning. His body was evidently at its limit; his mind hummed with pain, feeling as if it would explode.
"Master."
Mo Yuanbai rushed forward, supporting Qin Chen. Yet, Mo Yuanbai himself was also covered in injuries, and even Gu Zunren and Lao Yuan were heavily wounded.
Pu Caijun was too strong. Although Qin Chen and the others had killed him, each of them was gravely injured, with none remaining unscathed.
Qin Chen pulled out the blood spear from his shoulder with a plop, his face turning paler. The blood spear had lost Pu Caijun's activation and was now silent, though its terrible and violent blood energy remained thick.
After sealing the blood spear with several restrictions, Qin Chen tossed it into the Qiankun Creation Jade Disc, then collected Pu Caijun's storage ring and golden gong. With a rumble, he gathered many treasures, including the pillars of the Saint’s Extermination Formation, into the Qiankun Creation Jade Disc.
"Hurry and enter the Qiankun Creation Jade Disc; we cannot linger here."
Qin Chen, with a grave expression, pulled Lao Yuan and the others into the Qiankun Creation Jade Disc, even drawing in the atmosphere of this space, for it contained a breath that stirred even Qin Chen’s body, making him want to devour it.
Finally, Qin Chen's gaze settled on the mysterious rusty sword emanating blood light, his eyes revealing an incredibly complex expression. If it weren't for the mysterious rusty sword this time, he would have already died.
Moreover, Qin Chen had a feeling that if the mysterious rusty sword hadn't absorbed Pu Caijun's essence blood and soul at the critical moment, it might have turned on him instead. It was precisely because the mysterious rusty sword had gained a great supplement that it did not backlash against him. Otherwise, under those circumstances, Qin Chen couldn't even be sure what his outcome would be.
With a wave of his hand, Qin Chen stored the mysterious rusty sword into the Qiankun Creation Jade Disc, then forced himself to activate his spatial divine ability, vanishing without a trace. He had no time to care about the commotion left in the void.
If Pu Caijun were still alive at that moment, he would certainly be shocked, for within Qin Chen's teleportation technique was a trace of his own spatial divine ability's intent. After battling him, Qin Chen had actually comprehended the power within his spatial divine ability. What kind of abnormality was this guy?
Unfortunately, Pu Caijun would never see this scene again.
At this moment, Qin Chen had no idea where he would teleport to, nor did he have the mood to care. He frantically activated his spatial divine ability, even setting up several solid spatial teleportation arrays, continuously switching. After more than ten instances of teleportation, Qin Chen finally couldn't hold on any longer.
Puff! He spat out another mouthful of blood, his complexion pale, his body swaying, and immediately entered the Qiankun Creation Jade Disc, collapsing within, without any further sound. Following his battle with Pu Caijun, he was gravely wounded, exhausting all his cards, and almost not only failed to kill his opponent but also lost his own life.
If Pu Caijun had paid him a bit more attention, immediately unleashing that terrifying blood spear or avoiding the mysterious rusty sword with care, even being cautious of not being trapped by the Saint’s Extermination Formation, the final outcome could have been completely different.
