Yu Chen was infinitely satisfied with his new weapons, the Whispering Wind and the Katana of Death. Their abilities were quite shocking.

However, a split second later.

A powerful aura swept through the fabric of existence, shattered the sky, pierced the heavens and descended upon Yu Chen.

"You filthy human, you killed my tribe. Die!!"

Yu Chen's expression changed drastically.

The Katana of Death manifested and it slashed horizontally, piercing through the void and causing space to distort, triangular beam simmered out of Yu Chen's body.

The evil aura.

With a deadly slash, and the collision of triangular beam, the world seem to shake.

Yu Chen immediately saw the figure of an insect...

A mighty insect with six piercing legs.

Two powerful antennas hung over it's head. Yu Chen gulped remembering the power that those antennas were able to command...

These Spires were very hard to fight.

Just the Spire of Derion was a hard nut to crack, and now he had a Spire of Sovereignty chasin

    It seemed as if Yu Chen would die. It seemed as if it was already nearing his end. He could not think of any way to stop the attack from completely engulfing... If he uses the power from the time mist, he might simply end up gravely injured. In the face of the power of time, Yu Chen is simply an ordinary human. Even though he had awakened, he still hadn't abandoned mortality. Abandoning mortality is one of the ways to proceed to ascension. Which is why the backlash for using the power of time is more severe for someone like Yu Chen. Yu Chen's eyes were red, he stood up as a streak of light appeared around him and it shuttled back and forth. He reverted back to a brief moment of invincibility. When the whirlpool reached Yu Chen, it was unavoidable so it shook the world, snapped the heavens and pierced through existence. Yu Chen struggled to maintain his current form, the torrent of power simply breaking space and chasing time...Suddenly the time around Yu Chen began to thin o

    "You've become much stronger..." Moon fairy sized him up and down before commenting. Yu Chen smiled, às that is the only thing he is able to do at the moment. She was pretty, yes... but the realization of how powerful this person is made him to subconsciously swallow. She's not someone that must be provoked. Yu Chen shook his head and he asked:"How did you know that I was in danger?"Moon fairy descended from the sky as the visualization of her moon art vanished, making all of her divinity to vanish into oblivion. She took a few steps closer to Yu Chen that there was almost no space left between them. She answered:"I felt the disruption coming from the desert of horror.. I could even see the sky split, so I trusted my instincts that told me to come and when I did, you really was in danger." With a shrug she took only a step back..."By the way, what happened? Why was such an enemy after you. Even I am sure that I can't defeat him," Yu Chen's eyes widened. "You can't defeat him

  • The Origin of A Necromancer   24. Into The Hollow

    The words that the moon fairy left behind resonated within Yu Chen's mind...She made quite a lot of sense. The energies that he had absorbed will not last... Maybe the infinite blades will last because it was willed and merged, but the time mist and the chakras were not willed. So, they could be exhausted. But come to think of it, the hollow was just a vessel. The devouring force within it was infinite...What causes the world of nothingness to form? What birthed the hollow? The world of nothingness is the same thing as the hollow. Yu Chen took a deep breath. The hollow is unveiled whenever existence is pierced through or shattered. After the hollow is unveiled, it becomes fragile and breaks and then, leaks out the devouring force. It is a natural disaster, but this natural disaster takes nothing but a few seconds to manifest before existence is healed completely. If existence hadn't been able to heal itself, the universe would have been consumed by the devouring force. Yu Ch

    Yu Chen saw himself within a strange world. He was trapped within the hollow and the hollow was protected by existence. Yu Chen wasn't afraid that he wouldn't be able to escape the hollow because every now and then, he experiences battles that opens up the hollow... that was freedom and he did not want to escape from it yet. The place seem to boil with eternal darkness. This hollow was actually made of darkness and Yu Chen relaxed, if it was death energy he wasn't sure if he would be able to resist the temptation of absorbing death energy. For the meantime, Yu Chen focused on the dangers of the hollows. Coming in contact with the darkness could erode his body and soul... Yu Chen just pressed himself against the layered existence which seem to be solid like a wall. He could see spiral phenomenon, moving endlessly through the world of nothingness. This is the hollow realm, a realm where the devouring energy is birthed. He stared at the spiral phenomenon...He noticed that the waves

    Yu Chen had finally discovered the source of infinity within the hollow. And now, he wished to follow this path to create his own infinite world of both chakra energy and the time mist. Immediately, there was a ripping sound and the hollow tore open. Yu Chen used that chance and escaped the hollow...He finally saw the blue sky after four years. In the hollow, it was as if Yu Chen was able to sense countless parallel universes at the same time because, the hollow was torn open at every given moment, each opening releasing the devouring energy. However when he escaped the hollow, he discovered that he was only restricted to his own universe so he saw himself back in the desert of horror where he had last saw the moon fairy...Yu Chen sighed.

Yu Chen had gotten the insight, but the process would take a very long time...And time is something that Yu Chen had enough... there was need to rush the process. He had

    Abison was horrified. 'Death Energy? How did he do it?' Abison suddenly looked like he had been tricked. But then, his gaze turned extremely frosty. When had Yu Chen awakened? Probably a few years, while he had nurtured his own powers for 21 years. The difference in strength should be massive. So what if he had comprehended death energy? I'll be able to defeat him. Abison was suddenly confident. "You'll be damned Chen. You tricked me." Yu Chen laughed subtly and stared at Abison. "How was it? The taste of your own medicine?" Yu Chen immediately continued. "You know what, last time you and Miguel had almost made me believe that awakening is done by killing oneself. You both made me think that death is the only way to awaken." Yu Chen strolled towards Abison and his gaze became hard."I could not awaken, so you both simply wanted me dead. You both thought of me as a burden, hahaha." Abison glared sharply at Yu Chen and he muttered with a low growl. "Cheeeennnnn!!" Yu Chen was

    After the crowd must have dispersed, Abison glared at Yu Chen. Suddenly he sneered. "Do you really think that I'd believe that you've spared me?"Yu Chen raised a brow. "Why not? I can't spare you?" "You might stab me in the back when I relaxes..." Yu Chen laughed and he let his guard down. "Listen, I could have killed you if I really wanted to... There is actually no need for a brawl. You've seen my strength for yourself. However, I wanted to see the level of your own strength." Abison was suddenly curious. "Did you really awaken through death?" Yu Chen did not hide anything. "Yes... I died, however I became death instead... You can call it some sort of legend or whatever, I can still remember the pain I felt while dying." Abison glared at Yu Chen some more. "Meaning that you actually took I and Miguel's idea, right! We did not mean bad..." Yu Chen's eyes suddenly turned cold. "You both clearly wanted me to die so stop acting. I followed master's idea... She did not think

    "You cannot be wanting a spar when humanity is on the verge of invasion..." Yu Chen was nonchalant but Otek jeered."You know that I'm on humanity's side, even if I've been born in the underworld, I know that demons invasion is going to cause a big catastrophe to humanity. I am also the source of information, so when I say it'd be alright, then you have to believe me... now let's do this spar." Yu Chen raised a brow.Abison snorted. "Humanity's side my arse, you're clearly a demon." Otek laughed. "Yeah, a demon on the human side. There'd be no problem." Yu Chen smiled, "let's take your word for it then." Then, he released a bit of pressure and Otek responded with a wink, "do not go easy on me... I'm an anomaly!" Yu Chen froze. What did one mean when they say that they are an anomaly? It simply means that they fight above their level... Yu Chen immediately took correction and then, he faced Otek like he was a true enemy. A powerful pressure descended. If Otek is an anomaly, then

    The Saint of Darkness was wary at first. Yu Chen had seen it in his eyes. He did not want to fight, but clearly he was also stubborn. If he admits defeat, it would definitely hurt his pride and reputation. Not just that, Yu Chen would become number 2 in the rank and he did not want that to happen. Suddenly the air around shrank. The universe that was shrinking, space, void, and existence. They froze completely and then vanished.Yu Chen's hair suddenly stood on end, chills covering his entire back. The Saint of Illusion was shocked. "I thought he'd never use this ability again. The ability always leaves him incapacitated and injured which is why he doesn't use it frequently. I can't believe that the Saint of Death would make him reveal his trump card." Yu Chen meanwhile was horrified. Everything seem to disappear. The sky was replaced with red, and the ground was replaced with mirror plains. The Saint of Darkness glared at Yu Chen and said; "you should not have pushed me to this

    The universe seem to break inch by inch after Yu Chen had unleashed such a devastating punch. The Saint of Darkness retreated even more, realizing how monstrous Yu Chen's physical strength was. "Such abnormally insane brute strength!" The Saint of Light commented while glaring at Yu Chen rather differently. The Saint of Illusion was suddenly interested in Yu Chen. At first, they had thought that Chen was being absolutely arrogant by calling himself death, but when death energy exploded out of his body, they were horrified and withdrew. No one wants to be oppressed by the domineering Power of the death energy. Who in this universe hadn't heard of the legend of the God of death. He was a figure and an actual force to be reckoned with. His oppressive energy, death is what set him apart from other powerhouses. Many people thought that the God of death had died, while some knew that he had gone into seclusion. Either ways, everyone has different opinions on things so it wasn't

    The Saint of Time could not forget that his power had been effortlessly suppressed by Yu Chen, which spoke volumes of how much of the power of time that he must have understood. The silence killed him and he could not help but question it. "How were you able to suppress my power? Time is constant and cannot be manipulated so easily." Yu Chen turned towards the Time Saint. "You were able to manipulate time, so why can't I?" Yu Chen's eye brows rose dramatically that the Time saint felt like strangling him on the spot. Because he controlled time does not make him a god!...The Time Saint had nothing more to say to him, in fact, the both of them had a grudge to settle. Yu Chen killed the Saint of Purity, while The Saint of Time instructed Moon Fairy to attack and kill him. However, at this moment neither of them could take any direct action against themselves. It was against the rules. As one of the seven saints of Dukkha, you must look out for one another. Yu Chen already knew of

    Yu Chen immediately moved, his hands swerving in an arc and the universe suddenly cracked. Otek, seeing the gesture shifted and struck out a palm and the void shattered, however his hands turned numb the moment it collided with Yu Chen's hand. 'What terrifying strength!' He did not understand why Yu Chen is actually so powerful, to even say that he had awakened recently... meaning that, the moment he ascends, his strength would undergo a qualitative change. Otek immediately became serious and seven shadows manifested behind him, instantly Skyrocketing his strength. The void shook and trembled and layers of the sky seem to crack and overturn.From where Abison stood, his eyes widened drastically, his face very pale. "What the fuck?"These two weren't ascended, and their powers could move the heavens. These duo were freaks, they were freaks of nature. One was the seven saints of dukkha, while the other is an underworld messenger. Their powers we're both unfathomable.Abison made sure
