I Am the Fated Villain
chapter-889

An intense battle broke out in the Star Territory.

Wang Wushang had launched an offensive without warning. The look in his frigid gaze was absolutely ruthless. Furthermore, he swiftly activated a horrifying Artifact while Ni Chen was momentarily stunned by the sneak attack.

*Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!* A black storm howled.

As though originating from a distant and unknown land, a sinister yet ancient banner suddenly appeared. It was covered in a shimmering black light, and the murderous intent was overwhelming.

Wang Wushang swung his hand and waved the banner. The entire Star Territory instantly darkened. At the same time, dense black mist boiled and transformed into a terrifying Black Dragon.

The Black Dragon raised its head and roared, shaking the universe with its might. Countless stars trembled violently under the energy fluctuation. In the next moment, horrifying cracks appeared everywhere and the aura of death permeated the air. It was as though the space was connected to the legendary Nine Nethers.

Wang Wushang might have yet to reach the True Immortal Realm, but he was the Successor of an Immortal King Family. There were few among his peers who could be his opponent. Just the decisiveness and ruthlessness in his attack would send chills down a person’s back. If caught unguarded, anybody below the Immortal Realm would be severely wounded or even fatally wounded.

However, Ni Chen was not an ordinary man. He was only taken aback for a moment before he quickly came back to his senses. His gaze became dark and gloomy.

“You’re really despicable!” he roared.

He raised his palms. An infinite brilliance spread out from under his feet, and the runes intertwined with each other to form a large lotus pattern. The lotus quickly bloomed with the accompaniment of Dao Sounds. At the same time, the divine light merged and transformed into countless astounding divine swords that slashed toward Wang Wushang with loud clangs.

After Wang Wushang brought out the banner, he did not cease his assault. His arm swiped downward like an indestructible Divine Mountain. Thunderous rumbling spread out, causing the sky to tremble and large cracks to appear everywhere.

The banner was called the Black Dragon Soul-Destroying Banner. It was something he obtained from the ruins of a cave in the Boundless Battlefield, which contained the ability to destroy Souls and unleash bone-chilling colds. Once the banner was activated, it could be said that nobody below the True Immortal Realm could block its power. It was no exaggeration to say that it had the power to destroy the entire world. Moreover, there were a total of 108 layers of protective arrays in the banner. Most of the protective arrays had been destroyed, but if the remaining protective arrays could be activated, then it could even compete against the attack of a True Immortal.

“This is merely my simplest attack… How will you stop me?” Wang Wushang sneered.

His figure flashed forward like an afterimage flickering through the sky. With a flick of his sleeves, he made a simple and primitive bag appear in his hand. A terrifying devouring force came from within the bag. Swelling with the wind, it became as large as a mountain in an instant and floated high in the sky. The dense and boundless Spiritual Energy in the surroundings was transformed into smoke and swallowed by the bag.

There were countless ancient treasures in his possession, which contained horrifying strength. When he activated them, he simultaneously unleashed various Divine Techniques and mighty martial techniques. The godly power he released was absolutely resplendent.

The vague shadow of a Primordial God appeared behind his back. Eighteen blood-red halos gathered above his head, with each halo resembling an ancient world.

At this moment, he was cold and indifferent yet majestic and incomparably divine at the same time. A single wave of his hand could smash the sky and cause the stars to explode.

“This guy is powerful indeed. With my current strength, it will not be easy to defeat him without exposing my Incarnation World… Unfortunately, there are two Immortal Kings protecting the Wang Family. It’s hard to say whether they have any treasures or mighty trump cards to protect themselves. I must not expose my trump cards before my battle with them.”

Ni Chen’s gaze flashed constantly. Instead of confronting Wang Wushang directly, he retreated backwards and concurrently unleashed an ancient art. The stars that exploded into dust earlier gathered around his body and condensed into existence to obstruct Wang Wushang.

Unfortunately, the ancient art could only delay Wang Wushang for a moment before it was destroyed.

The Black Dragon Soul-Destroying Banner fluttered, and a powerful gust of black wind blew as though trying to blow the sky to pieces. Furthermore, the wind was mixed with an offensive power aimed specifically at the Soul. Even Ni Chen experienced a stab of pain between his eyebrows. It felt as though his Soul was about to leave his body and fall apart from the howl of the Black Dragon Soul-Destroying Banner.

Fortunately, he was not an ordinary man. He immediately stabilised his mind and concurrently activated the Deep Control Clan’s secret technique to construct a protective array that would stabilize the sky. At the very least, he could not allow Wang Wushang to realise that he had already transformed the sky into part of his Incarnation World. That was one of his trump cards.

“Is that all you have? Do you only know how to hide and dodge?” Wang Wushang asked coldly. His body radiated with a terrifying aura. Like an ancient deity, his regal aura was so overwhelmingly strong that one couldn’t help trembling at the sight.

Not only were the fluctuations from their battle extremely terrifying, but the battle had also lasted for a long time. It was just that Ni Chen had been actively dodging the attacks, so the already deserted and dilapidated Star Territory became even more chaotic. In addition, various chaotic auras would blast outward and cause the stars in the distance to explode.

When Wang Wushang forcefully approached him, Ni Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly in anticipation. He whispered, “Now.”

He had perceived that Wang Wushang was completely within the range. Even if Wang Wushang suddenly realise that something was wrong, it was impossible for him to escape. This place was Ni Chen’s Incarnation World. Anybody who stepped within the area would be subjected to his suppression.

When the words left his mouth, the sky shuddered forcefully. The originally dim sky suddenly seemed to lose all its colour and vitality in an instant. Then, a horrifying crushing force that resembled thousands of gigantic mountains fell down. A pair of chilly eyes looking down on the common people had also emerged.

The unimaginably terrifying force crushed down on Wang Wushang, causing him to stagger. A moment later, he began to cough up blood. His legs felt as heavy as lead and extremely difficult to move. Moreover, the ancient treasures lost their power and fell out of the sky one after another.

“What is this? This is the power that should belong to Heaven! Who the hell are you?”

A look of absolute shock appeared on Wang Wushang’s originally indifferent face. Seemingly caught in disbelief, he attempted to climb to his feet despite the oppression. However, the force only increased the more he struggled. The pressure eventually became so heavy that the sound of his bones breaking could be heard.

Clouds of blood mist exploded and filled the void. His entire body had been crushed to the ground. At this point, it was practically impossible for him to struggle to his feet again.

“Where has your pride gone?” Ni Chen stood nearby with a faint look of mockery on his face. He had been waiting for his chance. In fact, he had been waiting for this very moment.

The entire sky was part of Ni Chen’s Incarnation World. As long as Wang Wushang stepped foot into this place, he would be under Ni Chen’s suppression unless he had enough strength to break and destroy the entire sky. Nevertheless, it was obvious that he was far from capable of such a feat.

That was what made the Deep Control Clan so terrifying.

“How are you able to control the power of the whole sky? Bleurgh…”

A look of incredulity appeared on Wang Wushang’s face. While he was speaking, he coughed up a mouthful of blood. At this moment, it was as though he was bearing the weight of the entire sky. Both his Soul and body were about to collapse from the pressure.

“You should bring that question with you to your grave,” Ni Chen replied nonchalantly.

He did not wish to expose the fact that he had seized part of the sky. Besides, this ability was an inherent talent that belonged to the Deep Control Clan. It was not something Wang Wushang could have even imagined to be possible.

“To be honest, I was planning to find you myself. Who could have known you would take the initiative to come to me instead? This is exactly what I wanted.”

He walked over. A tiny vortex condensed in the palm of his hand, which contained a nebula that spread across the entire sky. His eye sockets became deep and hollow, like the vast and boundless black hole. Then, his body began to dissipate and transform into waves of mist that stretched out to envelope Wang Wushang.

“You…”

Rage filled Wang Wushang’s face. He tried to stand, but his limbs kept exploding and leaking blood mist. Stuck in a miserable position, he could not even move a single muscle. The arrogance and confidence on his face had long since disappeared. All that remained were disbelief and fear.

It did not take long until the mist completely enveloped him. Entering through his nose, ears, and mouth, the mist quickly submerged his facial features.

“Why does it feel to have been too easy… It’s a little unexpected…”

With that, Ni Chen began to possess Wang Wushang’s body. It was just that the process of seizing Wang Wushang’s body had been unexpectedly easy. Everything had gone so smoothly that he couldn’t help feeling strange. In fact, there was even a slight sense of unease.

[Wang Wushang was possessed just like that?]

…

At the same time, inside a quiet courtyard in Queen Lunar Residence.

Wang Zijin gradually opened her eyes but remained very drowsy. It felt as though she had been sleeping for many years. Moreover, her mind felt groggy. Many of her memories seemed blurry, as though they were fragmented.

“How… long have I been asleep?” She murmured wonderingly. Propping herself up with her hands, she sat up on the bed. Her hair hung loose around her, and her gaze was slightly unfocused.

“Not very long. You probably slept for more than 10,000 years.” At this time, a voice sounded from the door. Gu Changge was leisurely leaning against the door with a cup of hot tea in his hands.

Upon hearing those words, Wang Zijin’s beautiful eyes widened in shock. Her groggy head immediately became completely sober.
