Chapter 1589: The Spirit Nucleus is Devoured

“Honey!” A look of desperation came over Xue Lin’s pretty face. Her eyelashes quivered as tears slid down from the corners of her eyes.
Seeing that Qingfeng Li had been separated from her and was on the other side of the tunnel, Xue Lin felt her heart break a little.
She reached out a porcelain hand toward Qingfeng Li, but the interspatial tunnel had been severed; it was a futile effort.
The two ends of the interspatial tunnel had been completely separated, split into two halves like a bottle that had been cut through the middle.
Worry and fear filled Qingfeng Li’s eyes as he hurriedly reached out his own hand toward Xue Lin’s outstretched palm, but found that he could not reach her.
The two of them were so close to another, but the spatial turbulence between them kept them completely apart. They were like the Cowherder and the Weaver Girl, the star-crossed lovers of the classic myth.
The spatial turbulence rushed toward the two; Qingfeng Li’s hand was torn into a bloody mess, as was that of Xue Lin.
Qingfeng Li shouted at those in the other side. “Fate Elder, Qixuan Zhenren. Quickly, protect Xue Lin!”
At Qingfeng Li’s command, the Fate Elder and the Qixuan Zhenren hurried to draw upon their vital essences. Together, they created a series of white protective energy veils, blocking out the spatial turbulence to keep Xue Lin from harm.
Even so, with the spatial turbulence relentlessly rushing at the energy veil, the Fate Elder’s and Qixuan Zhenren’s faces both began to grow pale.
Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake also quickly released their own white defensive energy veils, protecting Qingfeng Li from the assault of the spatial turbulence.
With the interspatial tunnel snapped in half, separating the group within, they all fell down toward Mars’s atmosphere.
Suddenly, another beam of silver blade energy flew from the distant Sky Blade Planet. It traversed the vacuum of space with extreme keenness as it appeared directly before Qingfeng Li.
At the last moment, Sky-Devouring Snake suddenly dashed forward, its body turning into a massive snake silhouette.
Sky-Devouring Snake called upon the power of its bloodline, the Ancient Snake Ancestor. It slammed into the white blade energy, blocking the killing blow for Qingfeng Li.
Ka-boom!
Sky-Devouring Snake was sent flying. Blood spewing from its mouth, it flew down toward the ground like a falling comet.
“Sky-Devouring Snake!” Qingfeng Li howled, his eyes filled with anguish. But there was nothing to be done.
In order to defeat the void ants from earlier, Qingfeng Li had already exhausted all of his vital essence and spirit energy.
Qingfeng Li could only stare as Sky-Devouring Snake, having just saved his life, was thrown down into Mars’s atmosphere.
The white blade energy did not stop coming. From the Sky Blade Planet, another beam flew toward Qingfeng Li. It was as though whoever was attacking held some kind of grudge against him, not willing to stop until he was dead.
In the face of danger, Black Puppy dashed from Qingfeng Li’s side. It wanted to help Qingfeng Li too.
But Qingfeng Li had a death grip on Black Puppy’s tail. “You can’t go!” He dragged the Puppy back, saying, “You’ll meet the same fate as the Sky-Devouring Snake.”
He had already lost Sky-Devouring Snake; he didn’t want to lose Black Puppy as well.
These two Godly beasts had been with Qingfeng Li for a long time; the bond between them ran deep.
The white light came, fast and sharp. It flew at a speed faster than lightning, arriving over Qingfeng Li’s head almost instantly.
If the strike hits him, Qingfeng Li would no doubt be torn in half. Even though he had the Mortal Purgatory Body, there was no way he could use it right now.
This was another blow from the blade of a Spirit Monarch Realm master; no one could block it, not unless Qingfeng Li reached the Spirit Monarch Realm as well.
Seeing that Qingfeng Li was about to be killed by the powerful blade energy, a look of horror came over Xue Lin’s delicate face. She cried out his name, making to dash toward him. But she was trapped inside Fate the Elder’s white protective energy veil, unable to move forward.
All around them was the spatial turbulence. If she went out, it would tear her to shreds.
Shoo!
Suddenly, a beam of red sword energy flew out from Mars. The red beam flew at an incredible speed, appearing before the white blade energy in an instant. It collided with the white energy, emitting a sky-shattering boom, and blocked its path forward, not allowing it any closer to Qingfeng Li.
“Sky Blade Emperor,” a proud, imposing voice rang out from Mars below. “You are an Emperor of the Sky Blade Planet. You have no right to mess about on our Mars.”
An icy voice replied from the Sky Blade Planet. “Qingfeng Li killed my apprentice, Wudi Jin. Out of respect for you, I’ll let him live, today. I’ll take his life some other time.” With that, the voice vanished.
Immediately after, the arrogant voice from Mars disappeared as well. It was as though it was never there.
At the same time, on the surface of Mars beneath them, there appeared six beams of white light. They enveloped Qingfeng Li, Black Puppy, Xue Lin, Fate Elder, Qixuan Zhenren, the Eastern Sea Prince, and the Third Princess. They were carried away to someplace unknown.
However, each of the six beams of light shot out in a different direction; to the east, the west, the north and south. Only Qingfeng Li and Black Puppy were headed in the same direction.
Qingfeng Li saw the images before his eyes blur. There was a flash of white light, and then he was wrapped in a ball of energy.
This ball of energy was like a transportation array, taking him straight into some unknown passageway.
Not far from him was Black Puppy. Other than that, he could not see anyone else; they had all been sent in other directions.
“Oh no.” Qingfeng Li’s face grew pale, a hint of terror appearing in his eyes. “This white light is drawing on my spiritual power and vital essence!”
Qingfeng Li had initially thought that the white light that appeared was a good thing. He did not expect there to be a monstrous devouring force coming from the ball of white light. It was devouring what little vital essence and power remained in his body.
Qingfeng Li was at the Seventh Level of the Spirit Emperor Realm, and a Emperor class spirit nucleus had formed in his body. But now, the nucleus had been devoured by the white light, he was now just a regular human.
“Dammit! If I’m just a regular human, here in this unfamiliar world, won’t I be like a dead man walking?” Qingfeng Li was filled with terror at the thought.
But there was nothing he could do. The devouring power contained in the white light was too powerful. It was the power of a Spirit Monarch Realm master that was devouring his power.
Qingfeng could not stop it and could not resist. All he could do was allow his Emperor Class spirit nucleus to be devoured.
Not only Qingfeng Li, but even Black Puppy’s demon nucleus was consumed by the white light.
“I thought the Crimson Fire Emperor was saving me, but who would have thought that he wanted to devour my spirit nucleus,” Qingfeng Li cussed silently. He was enraged, but there was nothing to be done.
It was all clear to Qingfeng Li now. Whether it was the Sky Blade Emperor of the Sky Blade Planet or the Crimson Fire Emperor of Mars, none of them meant well. To them, he was of no significance, just someone they could bully as they pleased.
Qingfeng Li swore to himself that, one day, he would definitely get his revenge.
