Against the Gods Volume 1: The Beauty of Misfortune Chapter 184: Between Life and Death (Part 1)



BOOM!!!!

Before today, Yun Che had never encountered a weapon heavier and more domineering than the heavy sword in his hand. However, when his heavy sword collided with the heavy sword of the Stone Dragon Warrior, he felt as if he was hit by a towering mountain falling from the sky... His right arm lost consciousness in an instant, and the heavy sword flew far away. His entire body also stuck to the ground, sliding backwards like an arrow, leaving a mark on the ground that was more than twenty feet long.

Bang! The heavy sword fell from the sky and landed right at his feet, deeply embedded in the hard ground. However, a two-inch gap suddenly appeared in the middle of the sword.

After Yun Che's body stopped, there was no movement for a long time. His right arm was twisted backwards at a shocking angle. It was unknown whether it was severely dislocated or directly broken.

“Yun Che… Yun Che!!” The fairy’s heart tightened, and she shouted at the loudest voice she could. Just now, when Yun Che slipped, his back was on the ground, and he firmly protected her against his chest, so that she didn’t get hurt at all. But Yun Che’s injuries were extremely serious. If these injuries fell on other people, they would have been fatal.

She knew in her heart that Yun Che was seriously injured again because of her. If it wasn't for protecting her, he could have used his speed to fight the Stone Dragon Warrior. Although he had no chance of winning, at least he wouldn't have become so miserable in the blink of an eye.

"I'm... fine..."

Yun Che's upper body slowly lifted up, his voice hoarse and difficult, and when he finally straightened up, the Rock Dragon Warrior was less than thirty steps away from him. His right arm was still bent on his body, and he could no longer feel the existence of his right arm, only the piercing pain in his shoulder.

"Let me go... If you don't want to die, let me go right now!" Yun Che's miserable state made Chu Yueli's eyes tremble violently. She couldn't understand why this man wanted to protect her so desperately... "Desperately", desperately without any compromise! Selfishness is human nature, cherishing life is human instinct. She couldn't understand why this mysterious boy would not hesitate to use his own life and his own opportunities to protect her remaining life so persistently.

“I… won’t!” Yun Che gritted his teeth and spoke with every word being heavy.

"If you don't let me go... I'll bite my tongue and commit suicide!"

Chu Yuechan's words made Yun Che's pupils shrink slightly. He turned his head and looked at Chu Yuechan who had a determined face. After the corner of his mouth twitched for a while, he suddenly let out a furious roar: "Shut up!"

This loud roar made Chu Yuechan faint. Standing at the top of the mysterious power pyramid, looking down upon the world, she had never been yelled at like this before.

Yun Che’s entire body was trembling as he stared at Chu Yuechan, speaking each word in a clear and firm voice: “Little fairy, listen carefully to me. You are no longer a supreme powerhouse who has reached the level of a Half-Step Profound Emperor. You are no longer a fairy from the Ice Palace who is high above and looking down on all living beings. You are just a weak woman who cannot protect herself! As a weak woman, the only thing you have to do now is to rely on a man who can protect you!”

"I can see that you reject men, and even have some disdain for men in your bones... Yes, in the Blue Wind Empire, among men of your age, it is estimated that no one can compare to you. In the future, you may even become the strongest man in the Blue Wind Empire, but this does not mean that you can despise all men! Because no matter how strong a woman is, there will definitely be times when she must rely on men. This is why there are women in the world, but there are still men! If a woman does not even have a man to rely on in her life, who is willing to protect her at all costs, then even if she stands at the top of the world, she is just a failed woman! She is not even worthy of being called a truly complete woman..."

"In terms of strength, I am a thousand times weaker than you, but now, I am your support! You can want to die, want to commit suicide, want to give up, but I won't, because I am a man, and when a man wants to protect someone, he will only fall down at the moment of death."

Yun Che slowly stood up. Without his arms to maintain balance, he stood up with great difficulty: “You want to die, but I won’t… The reason why I chose the heavy sword is to protect the people I want to protect. And the first person I want to protect with the heavy sword in my hand is not my family, not my lover, nor my friend, but you… If I can’t even protect the first person I want to protect, how can I still be worthy of using the heavy sword.”

"Today, I will risk my life and all my dignity and pride to show you who despise men... what a real man is!!"

“Uhhhhh…”

Yun Che’s eyes widened as wide as they could. With a hoarse roar, he swung his right half of his body violently, throwing his dislocated right arm back forward, and then forcibly stuck it back into place in the bone… Although this process was only a short moment, the pain it brought was unimaginable. Yun Che did not even frown. His right arm, which had just returned to its original position and could not move violently, stretched forward and grabbed the hilt of the heavy sword. Looking at the Rock Dragon Warrior who was already within reach, he laughed, and his laugh was incomparably sinister and miserable.

“Burning…heart!!”

As the two heavy words came out of his mouth, his eyes were suddenly covered with a layer of light red. The second level of the Heretic God's Profound Vein - Burning Heart, a level that he didn't dare to open even in his prime, was forcibly opened by him in his weakest state.

Inside the Sky Poison Pearl, Yun Che's actions shocked Jasmine. She opened her lips, but immediately swallowed the words that almost stopped her. Feeling Yun Che's current state, she was stunned for a while, and then her vision became hazy. In front of her, the figure that haunted her vaguely emerged, and then in her blurred vision, it slowly overlapped with Yun Che's current image...

His personality is really similar to his brother's...

In order to protect the people I want to protect, and also to protect my own pride and dignity...

He knew what he was doing, and what the consequences would be... But he would not hesitate, and no one could stop him...

The second level of the Heretic God, "Burning Heart", was activated. His body, which should have been completely exhausted, suddenly gave rise to an extremely violent, yet extremely unstable wave of air. Yun Che grabbed the heavy sword on the ground, and with a roar, he threw it towards the approaching Rock Dragon Warrior... On the sword body, the red flame of the phoenix burned.

"Phoenix Break!!"

With this move of Phoenix Break, what flew out was not the flaming phoenix, but the entire heavy sword!

The flames on the heavy sword blazed wildly, transforming into a huge steel phoenix, which rushed towards the Rock Dragon Warrior with blazing winds and unstoppable force. Behind it, Yun Che's body also ignited with phoenix flames, and behind him, a pair of gorgeous and illusory phoenix wings spread out.

"Phoenix Wing Sky Dance!!"

One sword and one man, one in front and one behind!

BANG!!!!

The heavy sword hit the chest of the Rock Dragon Warrior, and the flames exploded. The huge power of the flames caused the upper body of the extremely powerful Rock Dragon Warrior to lean back greatly. Yun Che's body followed closely, and with a "bang" it hit its leaning upper body. The huge impact force knocked its already unbalanced body to the ground.

Yun Che flipped in the air, holding Chu Yuechan tightly with one hand, and grabbed the flying heavy sword with the other hand, locking onto the position of the Rock Dragon Warrior. His eyes radiated an incomparably brutal light, and he raised the heavy sword high...

“Sky…Wolf…Slash!!”

"drink!!!"

The air currents in the surrounding large space surged in chaos, and a blue wolf shadow that roared towards the sky flashed behind Yun Che. Then, as he swung his heavy sword, this blue wolf shadow rushed forward with a force that was enough to split the sky and the earth.

Boom boom boom…

A huge gully spread forward with the impact of the wolf shadow, and instantly hit the fallen body of the Rock Dragon Warrior, blasting it high into the air. The domineering force flew it a hundred meters away, and it slammed heavily on the mountain wall behind it. As the mountain wall swayed, its body slid straight down along the mountain wall, and then was completely buried by the large piece of rubble that fell from the mountain wall, leaving only the dark gray heavy sword exposed outside.

Watching everything happening in front of her, Chu Yuechan's eyes were dull and she almost lost the ability to think.

"Successful...did you...?" Chu Yuechan felt like she was in a dream when she said this. He was so badly injured and had been exhausted several times, but he suddenly burst out with such amazing strength... He was like a monster, his body was like a bottomless pit with no limit.

But the only answer she got was the deafening sound of the heavy sword falling to the ground.

Chu Yuechan raised her head with difficulty. The moment she saw Yun Che’s face, her pupils expanded to their maximum size in an instant.

Yun Che's eyes were closed at this time, and two streams of blood were flowing down from the slits between his eyes. Not only his eyes, but also the corners of his mouth, nostrils, and ears were all overflowing with blood.

Chi…Chi…

The cracking sounds were very light, but very frequent. These cracking sounds came from Yun Che's skin, blood vessels, and even bones. The skin on his face, the skin on his limbs, the skin on his body... cracks spread rapidly one after another, and thin streams of blood rushed out. In a few breaths, his entire face was covered with fine lines, like cracks... Under his clothes, his body was also cracked countless times, and under his skin, blood vessels, and bones were also covered with cracks.

It was already full of danger to activate the Burning Heart in a normal state, but he had expected such an outcome when he activated the Burning Heart in an extremely weak state. The three consecutive moves after the Burning Heart exhausted all his strength and faith, and perhaps, it would be the last brilliant glory in his life.

Plop…

Yun Che’s left arm loosened, and the little fairy fell to the ground. Yun Che also fell straight down, and then there was no movement at all, and he didn’t even have time to say a word to Chu Yuechan.

“Yun Che… Yun Che… Yun Che!!”

Chu Yuechan shouted loudly, and she moved her only movable right hand, trying to reach Yun Che, but as weak as she was, the half-step distance between her and Yun Che was a gap that she could not cross no matter how hard she tried. Looking at Yun Che, who was motionless and bleeding all over, Chu Yuechan felt waves of pain in her heart... a pain she had never felt before, and a deep fear - a deep fear of Yun Che's death.

Before she knew it, she found that her vision had become completely blurred. This fact made her stunned... because she was actually crying. She had not known what tears were for decades, and she had never thought that one day she would cry, but she was actually crying for a man who was almost a generation younger than her. What was strange was not only the uncontrollable tears, but also the heartache that was more unbearable than a thousand arrows piercing her heart, and the deep fear.

Before today, she had no idea what tears, heartache, or fear were... But at this moment, they surged in like a wave, unstoppable and unstoppable.

“Yun Che… Yun Che!” She called out over and over again, her voice weak and sorrowful.

Boom! !

Her call did not receive any response from Yun Che. On the other side of the mountain wall, there was a sound of rubble being knocked away. The Rock Dragon Warrior, who was buried under the rubble, stood up again in the flying rubble.
