Chapter 0504
Wu Yu had been through several life and death moments .
However, this was the time when he felt the most helpless . This was because his opponent this time was so strong that even the elite experts of the divine continent whom he looked up to had no way of dealing with him .
Over 20 Primordial Spirit Transformation Realm experts were completely suppressed by this opponent . Among them, there were experts like the Taixu Sage Master and the Yan Huang City Lord .
Moreover, his opponent before him was the reincarnation of the Heaven Devouring Evil Lord . The Heaven Devouring Evil Lord was a creature that could only be dealt with by immortals who had descended into the world . How could Wu Yu possibly put up a resistance against him? It had been less than 10 years since he first dabbled into cultivation . How could he go against an existence that hadn't died after being locked up for three yuan?
Therefore, Wu Yu was clear that no matter what kind of resistance he put up at this moment, there wouldn't be any uncertainty if the Ghostly Emperor wanted to kill him .
The only thing he had not expected was that moments before his impending death, Nangong Wei would be on his left and Jiu Ying on his right . If he lost his life here, they would clearly not be spared .
When the Ghostly Emperor struck, Wu Yu couldn't help but turn to take another look at Nangong Wei . At this moment, this girl was as pale as snow . Now that they were facing each other without anyone to support them, Wu Yu could only see the horror in her heart . Perhaps she also wished to be able to lean on Wu Yu like the past, even if she was to die . However, with a sense of distance between them now, she could only tear up while being shrouded by the overcast of death . She couldn't possibly take a step towards Wu Yu .
Recalling the time when she was still young and meeting her in the Jindan Cave for the very first time . . . And looking at how stunningly beautiful she was now . . . It felt like an eternity had passed .
The son of her foe, Jiu Ying, was just right before her . However, she wasn't paying any attention to him at this juncture . Perhaps she did not hate Jiu Ying so deeply deep down in her heart . Perhaps the horror of the Ghostly Emperor had subdued all other feelings .
Perhaps if there was a chance for everything to go back to how it was, she wouldn't be that extreme on the Mortal Arena in Shushan . However, what passed had passed . There was no medicine for regret .
For them to die together in this lifetime, this was indeed a rare ending and liberation for them .
At this moment, greyish smoke erupted from the Ghostly Emperor once again . The smoke coalesced into the form of a giant beast which charged towards the Wu Yu and the other three and devoured them .
"No!" With the Mizar Sword Immortal taking the lead, the Primordial Spirit Transformation Realm experts dared not to make a move initially . Now that the Ghostly Emperor had struck, they could only to attempt to stop him in a hurry .
At that instant, several restraining dao techniques were used on the Ghostly Emperor . These dao techniques were countless times stronger than Wu Yu's Dragon Enslavement Heaven Imprisonment Technique and could even seal and restrict one's Primordial Spirit . However, the greyish mist from the Ghostly Emperor still broke through them, coalesced into a giant beast, and devoured the four of them directly .
Everything happened in a split of a second . Even Wu Yu's Swift Art wouldn't be able to stop it or escape . At this moment, he found it hard to even move when the Ghostly Emperor stared at him, let alone opening up his stride to escape . However, it wasn't that he didn't want to retaliate . It was just that the difference between them was too great .
Wu Yu's eyes widened . What exactly would the "devouring" of the Heaven Devouring Evil Lord be like?
What would it be like to die?
At the very last moment, he suddenly felt someone grabbing his hand . Wu Yu knew whose hand that was . Her hand was trembling and she was clearly horrified and helpless at this moment . It was as though she had returned to the time when she was still young and left Shushan with Wu Yu to roam the world .
Wu Yu had not expected to have such an interaction with her at this juncture . He didn't know if he should be happy or something . Perhaps the barrier between them had decreased . However, it wouldn't mean anything when they were dead . Perhaps the only beneficial thing was that her decision to hold his hand had completely resolved the knot that he had left in her heart years ago . At the very least, Wu Yu wouldn't feel guilty anymore .
Ever since he had left Shushan on the previous occasion, she still hated him to the core . Although Wu Yu wasn't able to get together with her, he had never hoped she would hate him .
Perhaps the hatred had dissipated when they held hands . Perhaps she was just horrified . Nonetheless, before his impending death, Wu Yu felt a lot more at ease .
The truth was at the very core, becoming dao companions was about looking for someone who would experience life together to the very end . Although fate had resulted in them not becoming dao companions, they would at least meet their ends together .
Wu Yu saw the greyish mist shrouding him with his own eyes . The truth was that he felt that this impending death was lasting a little too long . He had received the best legacy but wasn't able to take a new step forward . He could only lament that his luck had run out .
From the very beginning, he had the option to escape . However, he did not do so . At this juncture, he wasn't regretting his decision . He would only have regretted if he discarded the divine continent and fled alone .
When everything became deathly silent, only the temperature of Nangong Wei's hand felt a little real .
Ming Long said in all earnestness, "Wu Yu, I knew that your bad temper would eventually lead to your death . However, I never expected it to happen so quickly . All I can say . . . I'm really glad to have known you, although you are a short-lived devil . Since you have made your decision, you have to accept the outcome . You can go now . "
Towards the end, she seemed to be on the verge of crying . Perhaps, she wasn't willing to part with him . After all, they had been together for a long time .
"Screw your old mother! Foolish! If I were you, I would have ran long ago!" In the end, she finally couldn't help but blurt out an insult .
In the past, she had chosen not to escape too . It was also because of this that she died under siege . If she had chosen to escape in the past, she wouldn't have died and she wouldn't be related to Wu Yu in any manner now .
At the very last moment, the temperature of the world was dissipating . In the blink of an eye, the world was turning into a patch of grey . Time seemed to be moving extremely slowly . Various greyish gas flows circled around him before gradually diffusing into his body . However, the real circumstances weren't so . Rather, Wu Yu's body was assimilating into the greyish gas . This was what it truly meant by devouring .
Deathly silence . Amidst the deathly silence, images of his life were zooming past his mind constantly . He had a great mysterious encounter at the brink of death, and he had indeed gained much from it . The only shame was that he wasn't able to transform it into strength .
To sum it up, all he felt was indignance!
After all, he was someone who had inherited the legacy of an immortal! Now that his dream of becoming an immortal had not been fulfilled and he couldn't pursue the path of the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal, was he just going to lose his life here? The Ghostly Emperor was indeed not an opponent he could go against . It was so at least for the moment . However . . . he was still indignant about it! Indignant!
