C2030 Dark Guard
Second Palace Master knew that the situation wasn't looking good. His facial expression changed dramatically as he stared at Great Master. He furiously shouted, "Little brat, aren't you going to fight me alone? Why are you so scared by my strength? Are you going to attack me at once? Come on, you trash, no matter how many of you come, this old man will destroy you all!"
As soon as Second Palace Master finished speaking, Great Master was immediately enraged!
"Old thing, you're talking nonsense! How can I be afraid of you?"
Great Master's face darkened. His big hand shook and shouted, "All of you, back off! It won't be too late to attack after I kill this old man!"
Upon hearing Great Master's words, the hundreds of Skull Bandits quickly retreated and shouted, "Mighty Great Master! Kill this old man!"
Qin Ke and Qin Yan heaved a sigh of relief.
If these Skull Bandits rushed forward in a group, it would be too dangerous. Although Second Palace Master's provocation earlier was not very brilliant, it was clearly effective!
However, Qin Ke could also see that Second Palace Master's situation was very bad when he used the Sky-Upholding Cauldron and the lightning spear to strike. The Divine Power in his body was in disorder. Even the Sky-Upholding Cauldron above his head was shaking slightly!
"Not good. It seems like Second Palace Master has been injured by that strike!"
Qin Ke's facial expression changed drastically, and he cried out in shock!
Skull Bandits's Great Master was able to roam freely for tens of thousands of years, and he had killed many Palace Lord Level Powerhouses. His strength was even greater than Second Palace Master's. So, it wasn't strange for him to injure Second Palace Master with just a single strike.
"Old man, since you are courting death, I will kill you first and suppress your skeleton on my flying ship!"
Skull Bandits's Great Master had a ferocious expression on his face, and with just a single step, he arrived in front of Second Palace Master.
"Humph! Little brat, I will kill you today and punish you for the heavens!"
Although Second Palace Master's condition was not good, he still shouted with dignity!
Boom!
His divine force surged, wanting to activate the Sky-Upholding Cauldron!
However, as his divine power charged into the Sky-Upholding Cauldron, his entire body shook violently!
"Hahaha, old fellow, I didn't expect you to be so useless. Can't you hold on any longer? Hahaha, I would like to see who will destroy who today!"
Great Master could tell that Second Palace Master was injured with a single glance. He burst into laughter!
"Shut up! We don't need our palace master to deal with a shameless person like you. I'm enough!"
Just as Great Master finished his words, Qin Ke shouted and rushed out!
"Palace master, leave this to me!"
Qin Ke said to Second Palace Master in a low voice, "I'm afraid killing this kind of trash will dirty your hands. Let me help you!"
"Yes, you have to be careful!"
Second Palace Master wanted to refuse, but after seeing the surging divine power on Qin Ke's body, he nodded and stepped back.
"Humph! Yellow-haired brat, since you are so eager to die, I will kill you first!"
Great Master was so angry that his body was trembling. He pointed at Qin Ke and shouted furiously.
* Hong! *
His body shook, and a lightning spear appeared in his hand!
Rumble!
Boundless Power of Thunder shook, and a terrifying aura shot out in all directions!
"Die!"
Great Master shouted out loudly. The lightning spear turned into a furious dragon, and lunged at Qin Ke!
Facing the attack of the lightning spear, Qin Ke didn't dare to be careless. Divine force surged on his body. The energy of the Phagocytosis of Ancestral Fire rushed out, forming a huge vortex outside his body!
Large Phagocytosis!
As the Large Phagocytosis was activated, the powerful Devouring Power attracted the lightning spear and suppressed it into the devouring vortex!
Rumble!
Under the circulation of the Large Phagocytosis, the lightning spear instantly disappeared!
"What?! What's going on?!"
Great Master's face was filled with shock. He quickly retreated and stared at the Large Phagocytosis Whirlpool in front of Qin Ke. His brows were twitching as he shouted, "What a powerful Martial Arts! Kid, I didn't know you were young, but you have cultivated quite a lot of Martial Arts!"
"These Martial Arts are specially designed to kill trash like you!"
Qin Ke shouted in a domineering manner, "If you are afraid, you better kill yourself, and save me the trouble!"
"Humph! The yellow-haired brat spoke with a big tone! "
Great Master was so angry that he let out a furious roar. With a fierce roar, he once again charged forward!
His divine force covered his body and opened up the powerful Thunder Divine Body!
As Great Master activated the lightning body, a lightning armor covered his entire body!
On the armor, the rune flickered, and there were even countless Thunderbeast suppressing it, making it seem incomparably terrifying!
The most dazzling thing was that on the lightning armor, there was a huge pitch-black rune!
That rune was incomparably black. It seemed to be out of tune with the surrounding Thunder Rune. However, it was far more powerful than any other rune!
Qin Ke could tell with a glance that the dark rune was the core of the entire lightning armor. It was also the strongest rune!
It could even be said that the dark rune had given birth to this Thunder Armor!
As the Thunder Armor covered Great Master, his aura instantly changed. The originally powerful Power of Thunder started showing traces of black power!
That was the power of darkness!
After fusing with the dark energy, the Power of Thunder's power instantly soared to a terrifying level!
Rumble!
Before Great Master could attack, just the dark energy alone had shattered the void. Even Qin Ke's body was suppressed to the point of retreating!
"What kind of power is this? How can it be so powerful?"
A trace of shock flashed across Qin Ke's eyes as he exclaimed to himself.
"That's the Dark rune! You, you are from the Dark Valley!"
Second Palace Master, who was standing behind Great Master, shouted in shock and fear when he saw the Dark Runes on Great Master's body.
"Dark Valley? Palace Master, you said that it was a dark rune?"
A trace of surprise flashed across Qin Ke's face as he asked!
" That's right, it can't be wrong! There is a group of dark guards in Dark Valley. Their most prominent symbol is the dark rune on their armor. I have seen this rune once ten thousand years ago, and I will never forget it for the rest of my life!"
Second Palace Master's voice even carried a trace of fear!
"Dark guards? Are they very powerful?"
Qin Ke asked.
"No, it's not powerful, it's fear! They are the Death God, the devil, and the guards of darkness! As long as they appear, not a single blade of grass will grow, all life will be wiped out! In these tens of thousands of years, the Dark Guards only appeared several hundred times. However, every time they appear, it will lead to an absolutely tragic slaughter!"
Second Palace Master's voice was still unable to calm down as he spoke with a trembling voice.
"Hehe, I really didn't expect that you would still be able to live until now after seeing the Dark Guards."
At this moment, Great Master sneered and said, "It seems like there is a mistake in the methods of the Dark Guards. There is actually a fish that slipped through the net like you!"
"Qin Ke, quickly retreat!"
Ever since he saw the dark runes on Great Master's armor, Second Palace Master became very anxious. He went forward and pulled Qin Ke away. He said to Qin Ke via divine sense, "Quickly, you and Qin Yan return to the Cloud Flying Boat. I will release the Heavenly Fire later. Surround these Skull Bandits. You all take the opportunity to activate the Cloud Flying Boat and escape from here!"
"Palace Master, how can this be?"
Qin Ke's facial expression changed drastically and he cried out in panic. He never thought that Second Palace Master would make such an arrangement!
Although he didn't know how powerful the Heavenly Fire was, judging from Second Palace Master's expression, he knew that he would be able to temporarily trap those Skull Bandits after activating the Heavenly Fire!
However, the power of the Heavenly Fire would not last for long. As long as those Skull Bandits broke the Divine Fire, there would only be one outcome for Second Palace Master!
In other words, Second Palace Master's arrangement was to sacrifice himself in exchange for the chance for Qin Ke and the others to survive!
"Qin Ke, don't hesitate! You do not know how terrifying the Dark Guards are! There is not much time left. After activating my Heavenly Fire, you won't be able to last much longer either. Take a good look at the time. Quickly leave! Otherwise, I won't be able to rest in peace! "
Second Palace Master even said such words, which made Qin Ke even more surprised!
After knowing the identity of Great Master's dark guard, the changes that happened to Second Palace Master were simply too great!
Originally, Second Palace Master was also waiting for the reinforcements from Purple Sun God Realm to arrive, but now, his attitude had changed. He directly sent a voice transmission to Qin Yan and said, "Quickly send a voice transmission to the experts of your family. Don't come over. If you offend the Dark Guard... It will bring disaster to the entire Purple Sun God Realm!"
"Palace Master, are the Dark Guards really that terrifying?"
Qin Ke did not understand Second Palace Master's arrangement and asked in a deep voice.
"Qin Ke, you do not know the strength of the dark guards! Ten thousand years ago, I was still not the palace master. I followed my master to the Wu Yuan Divine World. I happened to run into the Dark Guards! There were only three of them, but they were so powerful that they were undefeatable. They had killed eighteen Palace Lord Level Powerhouses from Wu Yuan Divine World, and even my master. In order to protect me, they killed me as well! "
Second Palace Master said with a pale face, "It's hard for you to imagine how terrifying their strength is. Three of them... Nineteen Palace Lord Level Powerhouses and hundreds of millions of creatures from Na Wu's Abyss God World were killed! They are devils, death gods, invincible! "
Upon hearing Second Palace Master's words, Qin Ke was stunned on the spot!
Three dark guards had such terrifying combat strength. This was simply unimaginable!
"Could it be that these dark guards are all Great Emperor?"
Qin Ke's eyes were filled with shock as he thought to himself.
He circulated his Bodhisattva'S Pupil and once again carefully sized up Great Master. His body couldn't help but tremble in shock. He screamed, "How is this possible? He... his cultivation base has really advanced to Great Emperor's level!"0
Great Master's realm just now was only Palace Lord Level Powerhouses's realm, not Great Emperor's strong realm!
But at this moment, with the appearance of the lightning armor, or rather, the dark rune, Great Master's strength had actually soared to the Great Monarch Stage!
And even more shocking, as Great Master's strength broke through to the Great Monarch Stage, everything seemed very calm, without the slightest bit of lightning punishment!
All of this indicated that the dark rune was not simple, it possessed the power of a heaven defying magic treasure!
Or, it could be said that the dark rune itself was a heaven defying magic treasure!
Qin Ke's eyes were fixed on the dark rune on the lightning armor. He let out a breath of cold air and said in a shocked and frightened manner, "Great Monarch Stage, it seems like this time, the odds are really against us!"
