547: Lao Gou Consumed by His Heart Demon

Lao Gou Consumed by His Heart Demon

Lao Gou abruptly stood up, apoplectic with rage. His body trembled and his fierce-looking eyes narrowed with killing intent.

The floor beneath his feet was covered in cracks as the intensity of his aura exploded like a violent storm!

He could hear the loud explosions outside the golden tower, but with his mind clouded by rage, he ignored what was happening.

Bang!

The lofty golden tower shook as the battle outside intensified.

Lao Gou's mind was in a mess and even his 4th level Heart Realm couldn't stop the raging emotions within him.

Heart Demons...

Lao Gou was consumed by his Heart Demons in his moment of fury and he wasn't even aware of this. His consciousness had already merged with the crazed instincts invading his mind.

Booom!

A large hole was blown at the side of the throne room and a lone figure dressed in white robes entered with an expressionless look. He then took out a dozen wooden chests filled with decapitated heads. Blood leaked out from the gaps of the box, filling the throne room with a nauseating scent of death.

Jiu Shen raised his head and stared at Lao Gou. His golden eyes were covered in a profound glow. Jiu Shen squinted his eyes when he saw the deranged look of Lao Gou. He then let out a mocking smile as he muttered. "A Celestial that allowed himself to be consumed by his Heart Demons. Impressive! Truly impressive!"

Lao Gou tilted his head towards Jiu Shen. He sent a bone-piercing glance towards the man, but Jiu Shen merely smiled upon seeing this.

"Did you like my gift, old dog?" His voice was gentle as if he was meeting a friend, but there was a freezing coldness in his gaze.

GRR!

ROARR!!

Lao Gou let out a roar similar to the howls of maddened savage beasts!

A golden spear appeared in his hand as he lunged forward.

The golden spear in his hand emitted a sacred golden light that was filled with archaic power.

Jiu Shen grabbed the sword behind his back and deflected the spear thrust.

Boom!

His long silver hair and his white robes fluttered under the violent collision of their weapons.

The walls of the throne room slowly crumbled, destroying the once majestic image.

"So you've also reached the late stage of the Celestial God Realm. I thought that you would be weaker than Jian Wang, but you didn't disappoint me, Lao Gou!" Jiu Shen said with a wide smile on his face. He thought that their battle would be a one-sided one, but from the looks of it, Lao Gou who was consumed by his Heart Demon could at least put up a decent fight.

Lao Gou glared at Jiu Shen and twirled his spear before plunging it.

Swoosh!

Lao Gou summoned a barrage of spear thrusts that left thousands of afterimages.

Swoosh!

Bang!

Jiu Shen rolled to the side and evaded the blade of the spear.

He was impressed by Lao Gou's weapon. When he observed it, Jiu Shen realized that the spear was a Celestial-rank weapon!

With a length of three meters and a slightly curved blade, this spear looked similar to an ancient guandao.

"That spear..." It was a weapon that couldn't be made by normal means. No Weapon Maker was capable enough to create such a powerful spear. That means his spear was something that was made eons ago.

Jiu Shen believed that Lao Gou must have found the golden spear in a Spirit World. 'Lucky bastard...'

Swoosh!

Jiu Shen carefully deflected the spear strikes while maneuvering himself into a more suitable position for a counterattack.

ROOARR!

Lao Gou gathered his true essence into his spear and summoned a fearsome golden dragon spirit.

The incorporeal golden dragon roared and opened its gaping mouth.

Several clusters of golden lights converged in the mouth of the dragon spirit. It then fired a golden beam towards Jiu Shen.

The powerful energy from the golden beam made Jiu Shen feel threatened. He gathered his true essence as he raised his sword.

BAANG!

Jiu Shen was thrown outside of the golden tower. He spun in midair to stabilize himself.

There was no injury in his body and he seemed to be unaffected even after receiving that attack.

"Not bad!" He muttered with a smile as he watched the imposing golden tower slowly collapse.

An incorporeal golden dragon emerged behind the clouds of dust.

Lao Gou stood on top of the dragon's head with the guandao in his hand.

He looked back at the broken golden tower, and his eyes regained a trace of clarity upon seeing the sorry sight. He then turned his gaze towards Jiu Shen who was looking at him.

"KILL!"

Lao Gou pointed his spear forward and urged the golden dragon to increase its speed.

ROAARR!

Jiu Shen skillfully brandished his sword as he muttered. "Frigid Dragon Sword Flash..."

A distinct draconic cry echoed as an icy blue dragon spirit emerged and clashed with Lao Gou's golden dragon.

BOOOMM!

Lao Gou hurriedly retreated and flew off when he sensed the danger.

Gold and blue fragments of light fell to the ground.

The figure of two people hovered in midair. Their clothes fluttered along with the wind.

The one thousand-kilometer area around them had already become a scene of chaos.

Shattered mountains, broken trees, and dead savage beasts littered the ground.

Only the fierce blowing of wind can be heard around them.

Jiu Shen was the one who broke the silence. "Lao Gou, even with your Celestial-rank weapon, you still can't defeat me! If you don't use the God Sealing Tower now, you will die in just a few moves!" 2

His sharp words reverberated throughout the entire Celestial City.

The remaining inhabitants who managed to stay conscious during their battle shivered as they stared at the skies.

They could only see two small dots hovering behind the clouds.

Everyone couldn't believe that there was actually someone who could fight evenly against Celestial Emperor Lao Gou other than Jian Wang and Asmodeus.

"Let's leave this place! Quick! We would only die if we remain here!"

"We're done for once they begin fighting again! Run!"
