Armipotent - Chapter 1702: The Emperor (1)

Caeso looked at the dark-red energy entering his body. At first, he felt nothing about it, less than three seconds later he felt the reaction. His Void Energy revolted, fighting the foreign energy inside his body. That was a normal reaction when a foreign energy was forcefully injected into his body.

However, that was not the end of it. The foreign energy was much stronger which resulted in an even more violent reaction to his body. He felt like the flesh inside his body was torn apart by the clash between the two energies.

He felt like his bones were getting crushed, grounded by the clash. The Void Energy and his energy pool went berserk, uncontrollably. But that was futile because his Void Energy was eaten by this foreign energy.

Caeso’s body shook in pain, but he held it. It was nothing compared to when he adapted to the Void Energy when he received the Void Creature’s organs and parts transplanted into his body. The violent reaction spread out, his eyes, nose, and ears were bleeding. His dark skin cracked one of his small horns detached as blood came from the small hole in his forehead.

His body shook violently when the foreign energy reached his brain. He struggled, trying to break free and yet it was futile.

What was supposed to happen to his enemy, happened to him. It was Tang Shaoyang who should be writhing in pain right now. But what happened in reality was different.

Tang Shaoyang let the mutant go. Caeso writhed in pain on the ground. The skin cracked and blood sprayed from his cracked flesh.

The Chaos Energy would reside in the mutant’s body. That would prevent Caeso from regenerating his broken bones and recovering from the external injury.

Right at this moment, the sky darkened. It was an instant change, as if night arrived earlier. The whole sky strangely turned dark, and the sky split open.

A figure wore a black robe coming out from the splitting sky. Half of his face was red, and the other half was purple. Similar to Caeso apart from the brown part. There was no doubt this figure was another mutant, and he was much, much stronger than Caeso and his brothers.

This figure was not as disfigured as the eight mutants. He looked like a human but with weird skin. That meant his body adapted to the Void Creature’s parts better than the other mutants.

The figure looked down, straight toward Caeso, and then it was followed by colossal pressure, coming out from the splitting space. It was just a dam broken by the pressure from the water. The Void Energy flowed down like a waterfall from the splitting space.

Tang Shaoyang did not hesitate to use his Absolute Chaos Domain. His team members were nearby. They would die if they got swept into the waterfall of Void Energy.

Through the Absolute Chaos Domain, he blocked the flowing Void Energy from contaminating the land and the living beings inside his domain. He made it in time and covered a big area with his domain. He was relieved that none of his team members were affected by the Void Energy.

He looked up, passing through the figure. He looked into the space behind the powerful mutant. It was a giant who opened his mouth. Inside the splitting space was the Void Creatures. Not just one or two or even three, thousands of them if not hundreds of thousands.

The figure opened his mouth, still looking at Caeso, “I wondered why my disciple’s life force is dying out. You lost to a pesky Administrator?”

Of course, Caeso could not respond. He was still squirming on the ground.

“It’s quite embarrassing for The Emperor’s disciple to lose to an unknown Administrator!”

The figure continued, “I have to make sure no one will know what happened today.”

In the blink of an eye, the squirming Caeso appeared next to the figure in the sky. With a single slap on the back, the figure discharged the Chaos Energy from Caeso’s body. The figure who called himself an Emperor furrowed his brow.

“No wonder you lost. He was someone with more powerful energy.”

Caeso’s body was calmed down, but he passed out.

The Emperor locked his gaze on Tang Shaoyang, “A weird domain that blocked off the Void Energy. Not only do you have a strange powerful energy, but you also have a strange domain.”

“It’s a disgrace to make a move against someone like you, but I have to get rid of you before you become a threat to us!”

The Emperor raised his right hand. The Void Energy surged out from his right hand. It released out and formed a gargantuan axe. The dark-purple energy formed an axe, bigger than Tang Shaoyang’s True Dragon form.

By this, his spirits gathered around him, ignoring the eight mutants. They realized that this one was more dangerous than the ones they just fought. This one was the real deal.

“It’s a disgrace. A disgrace that I will accept because you have to die now!”

The Emperor swung the colossal axe made from the Void Energy down toward Tang Shaoyang.

It was not fast, not slow either. His eyes captured the movement and was supposed to be easy to dodge. However, Tang Shaoayng had a gut feeling. His instinct told him that it was something that could not be dodged. It would follow wherever he moved.

Something similar to Caeso’s sword attack that went through the spaces, coming from all directions. He trusted his instinct and used all his defensive skills. Lastly, Nine Heavenly Gate – Seventh Gate: Heavenly Tortoise.

The black shell formed above him as layer upon layer of barrier formed, covering his body. Then he held his sword tightly, looking up at The Emperor.

“We will help!” Avyn and the others also tried to reinforce the defense. They had the same feeling as Tang Shaoyang. They could not avoid the axe. The only choice was to block.

However, before all the spirits could do anything, Tang Shaoyang pulled them back into Spirit World, with no exception.

His spirits were angry at him, they screamed in his head. They knew the reason why Tang Shaoyang pulled them back, but they could not accept. Especially for Zara, Avyn, and Karan. They were extremely angry by Tang Shaoyang’s decision.
