Chapter 999: Solo’s Premature Death

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

The four Founders were on the verge of blowing up. They had already lost face after Xia Gucheng made a blitz for Smile and slew him. After all, they were all experts with Founder-tier cultivation and countless years of experience, yet Xia Gucheng was a newly-promoted Founder just a handful of days old.

In front of these four Founders, Xia Gucheng had not only slain Smile, he was also ruthlessly sprinkling salt over their wounds! There was no doubt what he was doing was cruel, but it was unfortunate that the go-to habit of the Demon-Sealing Fiendish Blade had always been to deal with an enemy’s cruelty in kind!

“That’s a powerful Skywing Wolfpack Formation! Xia Gucheng looked very ferocious as well!” the man of few words, Ocean, suddenly blurted out.

“I never would have imagined that the Wolfpack Formation famed throughout the Law Realm would be equally effective against experts at the Founder tier! This is simply unbelievable! I’ve long heard of how the Demon-Sealing Fiendish Blades have the ability to do battle against those above their own Level, but who would have thought that could reach the extent of killing even a Founder!” Vista added.

Xia Gucheng’s successful kill in one blow had not only mortified the four Founders Youth, Rock, Chill and Mortis still here, he had also increased the momentum of his side considerably!

It was as if the three Founders had ignited their hope to succeed; the three of them were originally evenly matched against Chill and the others on his side, so now that they had Xia Gucheng as well as the Skywing Wolfpack in their alliance, they were a head above their enemy in terms of strength!

As long as they killed these four before Constant appeared, they would have hope!

“Let’s not waste any more time! Let the battle begin!” Crane bellowed after clearly understanding the circumstances they were in.

In the blink of an eye, the decisive match between the Founders happened right there in the ruins of the Temple of the Many Gods!

This was a fight that had hardly ever been seen throughout the history of the Law Realm! The majority of the combatants involved were at the Founder tier! Even if the five Superior Law Gods of the Skywing Clan made up a minority, they were also able to demonstrate a Founder’s might when they were grouped together!

*Kaboom!*

The sounds of explosion that rocked the galaxy were endless; everybody unleashed their most powerful combat capabilities in this clash, a fight to the death!

When experts at the Founder tier put their lives on the line, the destruction that ensued would shock anyone!

There were simply no words to describe the chaos that unfolded out in the vast expanse of space. Like the collision between a super black hole and a super white hole, the changes in this region of space could be seen from very far away! Nebulas and galaxies were all ruined!

Grand Ancestor Xia Gucheng’s side was obviously holding the upper hand, as Xia Gucheng’s Law of Speed had already reached its max level and achieved double lightspeed!

This was a clash between Founders. Every warrior that participated in the fight did not have a lack of cultivation, which meant that their neural response time was also lightning-fast. But Xia Fei and his maxed-out Law of Speed was still unparalleled!

Furthermore, there were the five Superior Law Gods from the Skywing Clan! Their cultivation might not be on par, but their speed was sufficient to offset this gap! They lacked the combat strength to kill the Founders, so they made up for this with their numbers!

When the five Law Gods were working in tandem, as well as using the might of the Wolfpack Formation, their combined strength was equivalent to a Founder!

Not to mention there was still Crane! The reason Old Crane was called such was not because he cultivated the Law of Speed, but that he possessed superspeed that was not any slower than the Law of Speed!

Smile’s sudden passing had caused the balance of strength on both sides to instantly shift, and now it was akin to four Founders versus five!

Out of all martial arts, Speed was king!

Xia Gucheng’s side had more speed experts, and they very quickly had their enemies catching their breath, as seeing the shadowy figures flit by one by one was no different from fighting ghosts! A moment of carelessness was all it would take for these speed lunatics of Xia Gucheng’s to stab them in the back!

When experts fought for their lives, every second counted!

A minute passed, and the Founder Mortis inadvertently stepped out of their Formation, allowing the Skywing Wolfpack to capitalize on the chance. He was ista-killed! His immortal divine body was torn into pieces!

Thirty-two seconds later, the only female founder Youth was heavily injured by a pyrrhic attack from Ocean! Her left leg bone was broken, reducing her speed greatly, while Ocean came away with a clean puncture in his shoulder!

The victor of this fight was evident at this point! Xia Gucheng’s side had an overwhelming advantage by this point, and the end was in sight!

All of a sudden, a hurricane whipped up as meteors rained down wildly!

No one knew who made such a soul-stirring attack that forcibly drove the two Founder groups apart from each other!

The Skywing Wolfpack raised their heads to look. The meteor shower was a fearsome sight, and no one knew if this was a naturally occurring phenomenon, or if someone had intentionally unleashed such a fierce attack.

“It’s Constant!” Old Crane’s expression changed drastically as he said gravely, “That scene just now was not a miracle of nature, but a display of power by Constant! The strongest warrior of the entire universe, Constant, is back!”

Xia Gucheng was stunned. He had of course heard Constant’s name. Everyone knew that he was the strongest out of the thirteen Founders! Out of the remaining twelve, only Solo had the ability to withstand a few rounds against Constant, while everyone else was no match for him! That was evidence enough of the frightening strength this super expert wielded!

Crane, Vista, Ocean looked as if their greatest nemesis had descended! Beads of sweat covered Ocean’s forehead, and it was hard to tell if it was due to the injury he had sustained or out of fear of Constant.

*Bang!*

Fiery masses of fire continued to rain down, and out walked an inconspicuous figure, wearing a normal-looking set of war armor. His nondescript stature and looks, with his two hands clasped behind his back, made him appear as if he was hardly anyone notable.

But it was this seemingly average individual who had the most illustrious name in the entire universe. Constant!

The expert Constant, who could stand proudly atop the world!

The leader of the thirteen Founders, the strongest individual controlling the entire Law Realm!

Glancing at the injured Youth, as well as the panting Rock and Chill, Constant wrinkled his forehead and softly said, “All of you, retreat first.”

He did not speak too loudly, yet his voice projected clearly. Even Xia Gucheng and the others standing across from their enemies could hear his voice clearly.

What a daring declaration! What firm self-confidence! Constant was actually intending to solo the four Founders, as well as the five Skywing Law Gods!

The Skywing Wolfpack was very rash. Their eyes were bloodshot, but their Grand Ancestor Xia Gucheng clenched his fist tight. There was a saying: Don’t work on porcelain if you lack a diamond drill bit. Someone who could maintain a low profile while keeping control over the Law Realm was definitely not a boastful person. It was evident that Constant was truly confident that he could win!

Xia Gucheng smiled, pointing at Constant with one arm and asking, “Are you the one who betrayed the entire Law Realm to the Inverse? Turning the Law Realm into a ranch for them?”

Constant was unperturbed as he simply answered, “I am protecting the Law Realm from being invaded by the Inverse.”

Xia Gucheng directly spat, while the Skywing Wolfpack behind him all looked indignant in their outrage.

“If you call this protection, then how about yours truly protect you and your entire family?!” Xia Gucheng spat emotionlessly.

Xia Gucheng truly lived up to his name as the Grand Ancestor of the Skywing Clan. Not only was he a powerful fighter, his mouth was also ruthless! He had no need to throw expletives when cursing someone, comparable to the sharp-tongued Xia Fei!

Constant froze for a moment, then his expression turned black.

No matter what, Xia Gucheng was a prominent figure in the Law Realm, the one leading the Demon-Sealing Fiendish Blade. Yet this patriarch was different from any other patriarch. Talking to him was like jumping on a floor with strewn nails, prickly and sharp everywhere!

“What use is there for a sharp tongue? You’re still going to die by my hands today,” Constant answered coldly. He turned his head and casually glanced at Old Crane and the others, saying in a low voice, “Ultimately, we were comrades that fought side by side back in the day, establishing the Law Realm afterwards. On account of that past friendship, we can all still be comrades if you turn back now.”

Constant was truly the most scheming out of the thirteen Founders. He was in no rush to dive into battle, but was attempting to dismantle the Alliance between the three founders and the Skywings!

The chances of Skywing achieving victory here would be slim if they lose the assistance of the three Founders!

The look in Constant’s eyes radiated compassion, demonstrating just how good at acting he was!

Unfortunately, he had underestimated Xia Gucheng, the Grand Ancestor of the Skywing Clan. He was not one that was easy to mess around with!

“I guess being your comrade must be really fortunate. Just how many comrades did you have on your side back then? How are they doing right now?” Xia Gucheng asked with a mirthless laugh.

Old Crane and the others were actually wavering a little. After all, they were all very well acquainted with just how frighteningly powerful Constant was, but Xia Gucheng’s words caused the faces of the three Founders to turn sullen.

Comrades?

Sometimes, comrades existed solely for the sake of being betrayed. Back in the day, Constant?had not even blinked an eye when he slaughtered his own twenty-seven disciples. That scene was carved deeply into the minds of Crane and the others.

Heaving a long sigh, Crane shook his head, “Constant, I will admit that you’re the one who put in the most effort when we were carving out a world of our own, so becoming the leader of the thirteen Founders made sense. But that is all in the past. It was just a matter of time before we severed this tie, so why not do it today.”

Hahahaha!~

Constant suddenly burst into laughter, a fierce look in his eyes. Since the three Founders had already made up their minds, he no longer hid the ruthless and tyrannical personality he had inside. He was determined to begin the massacre!

“Looks like I shouldn’t have let any of you remain alive back then; you all should have suffered the same fate as Solo, and disappeared for good! That way, we would not be in this situation here today, waiting for you all to come out and ruin my great undertaking at such a crucial juncture!” Constant remarked coldly.

The three founders were stunned as Crane exclaimed, “You did not stop short at killing our disciples, but assassinated Solo as well?!”

Constant glowered, “Any threat needs to be removed as soon as possible! Of course, the main reason you’ve all lived until now is because none of you were considered a threat comparable to Solo!”

This one line revealed the hatefulness of Constant!

Solo had been the only one out of the thirteen Founders who was close to Constant in terms of his cultivation, and Constant felt that the withdrawn Solo would ultimately be a threat to his plans. Back when Constant had decided to eliminate his twenty-seven disciples and broker an agreement with the Inverse, Solo had stood up and opposed him. It was evident that they would never see eye-to-eye with one another, so he had long since killed off Solo in secret!

Crane and the three were very alarmed, but also very aggrieved! Behind Constant, Youth, Rock and Chill were all unfazed.

Crane pointed at Chill with a trembling hand. “So you already knew about Solo! Yet you not once said a word about it to me! Solo and I started on the warrior’s path together, and he was my best friend my entire life! To think you’d all be so callous, so don’t blame me if I use the same method on you all to seek redress on his behalf!”

With that said, the veins on Old Crane’s face bulged. He instantly looked a lot more wizened than before, his entire body shaking in his rage. Ocean and Vista did not share as close a relationship with Solo as Old Crane, but they were also furious. After all, this was a comrade that they had fought side-by-side with all those years ago, and just because Solo had chosen a different path than Constant, he had ended up dead over it. There was no way any of them could accept such an outcome.

Killing intent gradually turned turbulent, and like water bursting through a dam, there was no way they could quell their anger!
