Chapter 1527: Draw a Circle and Curse You
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The atmosphere was somewhat quiet. In midair, Bu Fang and Nethery were staring at each other, while all the other people held their breath and watched from down below.
All the people present were knowledgeable. After all, the weakest among them were Gods, and they knew very well what Bu Fang was facing now. He and the dead woman were fighting with their divine sense.
Compared to the clash of strength, the clash of divine sense was more dangerous and had higher odds of ending with one side being completely crushed.
Bu Fang was just a Demigod. In these people’s opinion, no matter how gifted he was, his divine sense would not be too strong. Perhaps, at this moment, his spirit sea had already been smashed to pieces.
The silent battle had gone on for too long, so much so that the experts down below were beginning to stir. After all, the Heavengod’s treasure was not far away from them.
The Heavengod’s bone, blood, Laws, and treasure were all there, waiting for them. Even the wisp of Chaotic Energy, the most precious treasure that could help one become a Heavengod, was there.
The Heavengod’s treasure was constantly giving off temptation, which made people want to step forward and walk toward it. Almost all the people were tempted, including experts like King Pingyang and King Tianlong.
Many high-grade God Kings were breathing heavily as they stared at it, their eyes gleaming with greed. They knew that as long as they could acquire the treasure, their cultivation base would skyrocket, and they could even have the opportunity to break through to the Heavengod realm, becoming an immortal existence.
But the threat and oppression posed by the dead woman were too great. Yu Qiu and Xuan Kong were famous top experts in the ancient Heavengod’s relic with mighty strength, yet she was able to kill both of them and turn them into bones that scattered the ground.
This, to the people present, was actually a piece of good news. Since the top experts were all eliminated, their chances were finally here. If they were to fight with the top experts, their chances of acquiring the Heavengod’s treasure were slim. In fact, they might not even have a sliver of a chance to get anything.
But it was different now. They finally had the chance to acquire the treasure. This filled the hearts of many people, who had chosen to wait and see, with hope. And when that was fueled by the overly long battle between the dead woman and Bu Fang…someone eventually lost patience and decided to make a move.
Rumble!
A high-grade God King made a move. His strength was very strong, but he did not make it to the God King List. If this were at ordinary times, he would not have any chance, but now… he finally got an opportunity to lay his hand on the treasure!
He sped forward, turning into a stream of light. His speed was simply too fast, so he did not attract anyone’s attention until he had flown far away.
An uproar broke out in an instant, and then one figure after another rushed forward as well. Even King Tianlong could not resist and flew out.
Soon, a large group of people began heading for the Heavengod’s treasure. They wanted to seize the treasure while the dead woman was locked up in a battle, and then run away immediately!
As they were getting closer and closer to the treasure, they found that the dead woman still… did not move. That made them breathe faster and faster, and their pupils were growing wider and wider.
…
In Bu Fang’s spirit sea, the dead woman felt a little cold. She raised her head and looked at the palm that was slapping toward her from the depths of the spirit sea, where a thick fog hung in the air.
In fact, that was not a human hand, but a hoof. Yes, a hoof…
It broke through the thick fog at the depths of the spirit sea and thrust out, and in almost a flash, it had struck the dead woman’s body.
“What is this?!” she screamed as the hoof left a large hole on her ghostly green body, in which energy seemed to flow. She had failed to fend off this hoof? How was that even possible?
The Golden Dragon, the Vermilion Bird, and the others were watching quietly as the terrible existence began his performance. “It had been a long time he didn’t show up…” said the Vermilion Bird with emotion. Perhaps, in the near future, they would be neighbors to that terrible existence.
“I don’t care what you are… Since you tried to stop me, I’m going to destroy you! My curse is… invincible!” the dead woman hissed.
The next moment, her palm was drawing in the air, and soon she drew a circle filled with the curse power. It was so strong that it almost took a physical form. A humming sound rang out as she pushed the ring forward, and it instantly caught the hoof. Like a venomous insect, the ghostly green curse began to crawl up the hoof.
“It’s over,” the Golden Dragon said when he saw that.
Sure enough, the curse ring that wound around the hoof broke in the next instant, and then it melted away like snow.
A bestial roar echoed out from the depths of the fog. Then, the fog broke apart, and a huge shadow could be seen looming inside. With a ripping sound, another palm stretched out of the fog, but this time, it was not a hoof but a paw with five claws, and it was covered with scales.
Rumble!
The paw descended and spread out abruptly, its sharp claws ripping through the air as it went straight to grab the dead woman. She tried to fight back, but no matter how she used her curses, she could not shake the paw at all.
Finally, the paw fell and caught her body. She struggled while the cursed snake hissed, joining the battlefield to help her out. However, the existence in the depths of the spirit sea let out a bestial roar, and it stunned the snake and froze it to the spot.
The dead woman kept on struggling as a look of horror came into her eyes. The paw raised and slowly retracted into the depths of the thick fog, bringing her along.
She could not believe this was happening. It was not easy for her to finally wake up again, and she did not want to die! She glared at Bu Fang, her eyes filled with a mad and venomous look. He was her prey, but somehow, in the end, she had become someone else’s prey.
Her hands grew larger and kept lashing out at the void, trying to hold on to something. She did not want to be dragged into the fog. However, the existence in the depths of the fog kept putting in more force, and she could not resist it. Eventually, she was pulled over bit by bit.
“I’m not willing to accept this! This is not supposed to happen! I want to curse you! Curse you!” the dead woman growled, her face twisting and looking ferocious. Even then, the ghostly green energy around her turned into a strange wave and shot toward Bu Fang at top speed.
She laughed hideously as the paw dragged her into the depths of the fog, her voice sounding so creepy that it made the hair of those who heard it stand on end.
Soon, accompanied by her miserable shriek, the thick fog churned, and an eerie chewing sound echoed out of it. Finally, the mysterious existence belched, and everything fell silent.
Bu Fang twitched the corner of his mouth. It turned out that… there was such a mighty existence in his spirit sea. In the past, the Golden Dragon and the Vermilion Bird told him that this mighty existence was extremely fierce, but he did not take them seriously. After all, he had not seen it with his own eyes. Now that he had witnessed it, he couldn’t agree more.
The soul of the ancient Cursed Goddess was… eaten just like that?
A humming sound could be heard as the curse, which the dead woman had unleashed before she was devoured, shot toward Bu Fang at top speed.
The Cursed Goddess’s curse was extremely terrifying. Even Heavengods would not want to be stained by it because it would go deep into the souls and cause great harm to the cultivation base.
Even though the dead woman was significantly weaker than she was in the past, the curse she unleashed was still extremely venomous. If Bu Fang was caught by it, his life would be…destroyed. It would be very difficult for him to stay alive, and he could basically forget his goal of becoming the God of Cooking and top the fantasy world’s food chain.
The curse formed a ring. The dead woman had drawn it to curse Bu Fang, and this ring was deadly. It was getting closer and closer to him, and he could not evade it because he was its target—it would definitely hit him.
Even in his soul form, Bu Fang felt his hair stand on end. Curses were a malevolent force, and they did not seem to belong to this world. At the thought that Nethery would become so fearsome in the future, he felt very excited!
Suddenly, just as the curse ring was closing in, the God of Cooking’s Menu lit up. Its pages flipped, glowed, and then the curse power was absorbed by it… Then, after flashing for a brief moment, it dimmed down completely.
“Hiss?!”
Now, the only stranger that was left in the spirit sea was the colossal cursed snake. It was alone now, and it felt lonely and helpless. The death of the dead woman took it by surprise.
Without the dead woman’s help, the cursed snake was soon surrounded by the Golden Dragon, the Vermilion Bird, the White Tiger, and the Black Turtle. It looked somewhat miserable. It tried to run, but very quickly, the four Artifact Spirits swooped down on it, tore it into pieces, and devoured it. Among them, the Golden Dragon ate the most.
Hovering in midair, Bu Fang breathed out a sigh of relief. He turned around and glanced at the depths of the spirit sea. ‘So that is the Artifact Spirit of the last God of Cooking Set? With such a fearsome Artifact Spirit, that God of Cooking Set must be… very strong, right?’ His heart was suddenly filled with anticipation.
With a thought, his consciousness returned to his body. He opened his eyes and immediately saw Nethery’s beautiful face. She looked somewhat dazed at the moment as she had not yet figured out what just happened. Now that the dead woman’s consciousness was destroyed, she had regained control over her body, and she was not used to the mighty strength that was left in her.
“Hey, wake up. It’s time to reap the harvest.” Bu Fang raised a hand and gently patted Nethery on the head.
That gave her pause. She turned and rested her eyes on Bu Fang.
The wound on Bu Fang’s neck had quickly disappeared like melted snow because the dead woman’s consciousness had vanished. However, the bite mark on Nethery’s shoulder was still there. Bu Fang could not help but give it a deep look.
“Time to reap the harvest?” Nethery did not understand. Then, she turned her head and looked at the group of people down below.
The experts, who were shouting and running wildly, suddenly froze in place. They could feel that Bu Fang and the dead woman, who were confronting each other above them, seemed to stop fighting and were looking at them.
“Oh? Is it over now?” They felt somewhat embarrassed and were in a dilemma. But soon, an uproar broke out. They had no other choice but to rush forward. For the sake of the Heavengod’s treasure, they could only go forward!
Nethery looked puzzled, and she did not move. After all, she was no longer the dead woman.
Bu Fang glanced indifferently at the group of people. ‘The Heavengod’s treasure… He felt his Taotie Arm become a little bit hot. It was the Heavengod’s bone calling to his arm. ‘I cannot let go of this treasure!’ he thought to himself.
Suddenly, he frowned. He felt a profound sense of uneasiness.
The next moment, humming sounds filled the air as wisps of black smoke gradually rose, spread across the ground, and caught the legs of those experts flying in midair. Then, the ground cracked, and one terrible and savage monster after another jumped out of the rifts!
In front of Bu Fang and Nethery, black smoke gathered and soon turned into a figure.
