The moment the mask appeared on the Martial Emperor’s face, a thick blood light immediately appeared on the mask, sucking all the blood in the Martial Emperor’s body into the mask. The entire mask flashed with blood light. All the blood on the mask disappeared. All of them were sacrificed.
Not only did the mask lose all color, but it also turned gray and white. It began to petrify, turning the Martial Emperor’s face into a petrified face. It was not just his face. His body instantly turned into stone.
Xiao Shi collided with the Martial Emperor’s petrified body. The powerful and terrifying collision failed to shake the Martial Emperor’s body. The blood mist that filled Xiao Shi’s body kept trying to enter the Martial Emperor’s body, but it was blocked by the Martial Emperor’s petrified body. As a result, the blood mist could not seep into the Martial Emperor’s body at all. All of them were blocked.
“Is he starting to use the power of the High God?”
The corners of Xiao Shi’s mouth curled up. This was not surprising. In the battle with the Martial Emperor, he knew that the other party would definitely use the power of a High God again. Previously, because they were all demigods, even if he used the power of a god, the power he could unleash was very limited.
But now that they had reached the ninth realm of the Martial Dao, the power they could unleash would be much stronger than the last time when they used the power of a High God again. After all, a High God was a level higher than the ninth realm of the Martial Dao. As their cultivation increased, the power of the gods that their bodies could withstand would increase.
After the Martial Emperor turned his entire body into a stone body with the power of High God Blood Sacrifice, his aura and power fluctuations had all improved greatly. Killing intent flickered in his eyes. The last time his demigod clone used the power of Blood Sacrifice, he was immune to all nomological attacks.
Any rules would be useless against him. This time, the power of Blood Sacrifice allowed him to ignore the Origin Attack. Not only that, as the Martial Emperor raised his hand and pointed at Xiao Shi, the blood in Xiao Shi’s body was actually sacrificed uncontrollably.
Xiao Shi’s body actually began to turn to stone. However, the petrification that appeared on his body was completely different from the Martial Emperor’s.
The Martial Emperor’s petrification brought about an improvement in all aspects. The petrification that appeared on Xiao Shi’s body made his body stiffen. Fortunately, only his legs were gradually turning to stone and had not extended to the other parts of his body. Even so,
Xiao Shi’s mobility was also greatly affected. Even if he immediately used the scorching sun of the Scorching Sun Era and purified it, he could not disperse the rocks covering his feet through this purification.
Xiao Shi’s heart sank. He realized that the power of a High God used by the Martial Emperor at his current realm was no longer something ordinary methods could resolve. Unless he killed him, otherwise, the stones on his body could not be removed. Once his entire body was petrified, the consequences were unimaginable.
Xiao Shi did not hesitate. He immediately placed his finger between his eyebrows. The divine envoy mask also appeared on his face. He decisively used Evernight’s power. The entire sky was covered in darkness, turning into a deep eternal night. The long-awaited comfort spread throughout Xiao Shi’s body again.
At this moment, it was as if he had transformed into a sovereign under the eternal night. But even in the eternal night, he was still unable to expel the petrification on his body. It could only suppress the spread of petrification to a certain extent.
“Looks like I can only choose to kill him!” Xiao Shi’s eyes turned cold. He felt that under the condition of being petrified, it was as if he had entered a countdown. He had to kill the Martial Emperor within a certain period of time. Otherwise, as his body continued to turn to stone, he would definitely be the one to die.
Other than that, in the eternal night, the Martial Emperor did not slow down like last time, where it would take four to five seconds to move a finger.
On one hand, it was because the Martial Emperor’s current cultivation realm had increased. It had a higher resistance to the power of gods. On the other hand, after the lesson last time, he already had a way to deal with it. After all, a large part of the reason why his demigod clone had been killed previously was that the power of the High God that Xiao Shi used had exceeded his expectations.
Because it was difficult for him to move under the eternal night, he was killed by Xiao Shi. Now that he realized that Xiao Shi could use more High God power, he had already prepared a countermeasure before he fought Xiao Shi. Through Blood Sacrifice, he obtained the power to resist the eternal night to the greatest extent. It was not to the extent that he would directly lose his mobility under eternal night.
This was also Xiao Shi’s greatest disadvantage in this battle. The last time they fought, the Martial Emperor had gained a lot of understanding of his methods and thought of a way to deal with them. Therefore, if he wanted to defeat the Martial Emperor this time, it was clearly impossible to rely on the power of Evernight alone.
Now that both sides were using the power of the High God at the same time, Xiao Shi was clearly at a disadvantage. However, the Martial Emperor didn’t counterattack immediately.
Previously, Xiao Shi’s collision had not only injured his origin, but the poison of the evil ghost lineage also continuously burned his origin. Now, he needed to resolve it immediately, or his injuries would become more and more serious.
