Chapter 558: Chapter 343: Immortal Country!_2

“Who are you?” Shen Ye pressed his hand on his sword and asked.

“Viscount Weiss, at least at this moment, I am Viscount Weiss,” the other person said.

“Are you planning to defect to us and betray the Human Empire?” Shen Ye continued.

“Don’t get it wrong,” Viscount Weiss waved his hand and said, “The Nightmare World is guarding the Immortal Country; I only want to quickly take control of the entire world so as to find a way into the Immortal Country.”

An overwhelming aura began to emanate from him.

“Nine Layers of the Dharma Realm…”

...

The Underworld Lord Miket Tikaxiwa said gravely.

Shen Ye suddenly relaxed, laughing:

“Look, you want to enter the Immortal Country, but that has nothing to do with us, we’re just here to attend the banquet.”

“Work for me, then you can attend the banquet,” Viscount Weiss said.

“We have already come to attend the banquet, isn’t that attitude enough?” Shen Ye raised his voice.

“You mean—” Viscount Weiss pondered.

“Right, think about it backward; our names are not on the guest list, but we’ve come all this way. What does that signify?” Shen Ye asked.

“Initiative,” Viscount Weiss responded.

“Exactly, we are so proactive, yet you’re not moved at all, and you’re still blocking us here. That’s not reasonable. That’s unreasonable,” Shen Ye said.

“…If that’s true, don’t move, let me plant the servitude mark on you,” Viscount Weiss said.

Shen Ye shook his head repeatedly:

“You’re not Orochimaru, and we’re not Sasge; we have no need to be marked with a servitude mark, we hope to rely on a sincere heart—”

Before he could finish, the Underworld Lord Miket Tikaxiwa had already prepared her Technique, stepped forward, holding the book with one hand and pressing on Shen Ye’s shoulder with the other.

“Activate the Dharma Aspect,” she ordered.

The two had fought together before, and Shen Ye knew well that this Divine Spirit could greatly enhance his Techniques.

A series of illusory lights suddenly appeared behind Shen Ye.

—It wasn’t about following the Underworld Lord’s command, but rather Shen Ye had already seen the entry above the head of the person opposite him:

“World Destructor’s Incarnation.”

Was it because he had traversed through time too many times that he had been discovered?

It has Nine Layers of strength.

The Underworld Lord is an Eightfold Spirits.

Even with the addition of his own Dharma Aspect to the Underworld Lord’s, it was uncertain if they would be powerful enough to fight.

…Now they had to fight, whether they wanted to or not!

But Viscount Weiss, upon seeing their actions, remained indifferent, only leisurely saying:

“Was all of that just prattle earlier? I intended to meet you in Eternal Night City, but to my surprise, you traversed time and arrived at this moment.”

“So, resolving the issue at this moment works as well.”

Before his words ended, Shen Ye made his move.

Fifth-Level Trap—

World Burning Angel!

The entire world disappeared.

In an endless void, a giant black cross emerged in the sky, emitting boundless flames, making everything around it burn.

“Heh… The flame’s power barely reaches the peak of the Seventh Layer, and the cross itself has just reached Eightfold,” he said.

“Dreaming of using this to contend with me is the folly of the naive,” he said.

Viscount Weiss stood in the midst of the endless blaze, calmly saying.

The flames coiled around him as if consuming him, making a soft crackling sound.

But a faint glow radiated around him.

The flames couldn’t breach the glow.

At that moment.

The Underworld Lord made her move.

As a Divine Spirit, once she signed a combat contract with Shen Ye, she could enhance his strength with her own.

—Divine Spirits are indeed the weapons of war for High-level Professionals!

“Hellgate Shengxie, Nether Method assimilation,” the Underworld Lord Miket Tikaxiwa said softly, slightly lowering her burning hat’s brim with one hand while holding the Black Book with the other, whispering.

In the sky.

The giant cross, as if alive, rushed down swiftly toward Viscount Weiss.

Viscount Weiss did not take this lightly.

He used his hand to block the black cross, retreating steadily under its massive force.

Almost instantly.

“Come out,” the Underworld Lord called out softly.

The black cross trembled violently.

In a flash.

The cross transformed into an angel with wings of black flames, its whole body engulfed in black fire—

—This was the true formidable power of the World Burning Angel!

Facing the Blazing Angel, Viscount Weiss finally smiled:

“A Ninth Layer achieved by a struggle, at most can stalemate with me for a moment, but the outcome is still inevitable,” he said.

The Blazing Angel descended, embracing him in its arms.

An endless sea of flames enveloped Viscount Weiss completely.

One breath.

Two breaths.

Three Breaths.

All the flames died out.

The Technique concluded.

“Look, I said—”

Viscount Weiss’s voice suddenly cut off.

—The Underworld Lord Miket Tikaxiwa and Baxter disappeared.

They had run away!

“Pitiful lambs, believing you could escape the palm of my hand.”

“Little did you know, the disturbances you left in space-time are so clear, and the Dusk Star teleportation point you had once set up, I have already memorized.”

“I’m coming to kill you now.”

He stepped into the void and vanished.

Elsewhere.

Eternal Night City.

The palace.

Shen Ye and the Underworld Lord walked out the door, standing in the council hall.

“Now, I need to verify something,” Shen Ye said.

“Do you want to know if the other side can travel through time?” the Underworld Lord asked.

“Yes,” Shen Ye said.

“In fact, that guy hadn’t shown his full strength, and as the God of the Undead, I vaguely feel that the opponent is just a soul fragment that descended into that human body,” the Underworld Lord said.

“You mean, the opponent’s actual strength might be far greater than what we have seen?” Shen Ye inquired.

“Exactly,” the Underworld Lord sighed.

Shen Ye didn’t continue the conversation.

The Underworld Lord also didn’t say more.

Both were wracking their brains, considering how to deal with such a situation.
