Chapter 339 - Monarch Alba

Both Xie Xie and Yuanen Yehui swiftly began to equip their Four-Word Battle Armor, which gave off a resplendent light.

Xie Xie and Yuanen Yehui felt their soul rank, boosting from a Title Douluo all the way to a Limit Douluo.

"Those pesky armors... After we take over this world, Investigating those will be our next priority."Said Demon Monarch Alba with a chuckle as purplish-gold flames began to appear around him.

"That's if you are alive by the end of this." Said Yuanen Yehui as six wings appeared behind her as she entered her fallen form.

"Oh? How cute."Said Alba with a dark chuckle causing Yuanen Yehui to narrow her eyes while Xie Xie let out a sigh.

"Yuanen... Follow my lead."Said Xie Xie causing Yuanen Yehui to furrow her brows but she still nodded her head.

'Seventh-Soul Ring: Dragon of Space and Time True Body.'

Xie Xie's figure began to flow as yin and yang dragon silhouette began to revolve around him as his eyes began to shine.

One dark and other white, his figure becoming translucent with illusionary lights sparking around him.

"Hm? Aren't you the brat I almost killed-"

'Space-Time Dragon Acceleration.'

'Time Acceleration.'

Xie Xie vanished from the view of the Demon Monarch Alba as he was speaking, before appearing right behind him.

"Don't you know, it's foolish to talk while fighting." Said Xie Xie as his dagger was stabbing at the back of Alba's neck causing him to shiver.

'This brat!'

Instantly hurricanes made out flames suddenly erupted from under Alba, moving from below him and upwards.

Yet Xie Xie didn't move back or cease his attack, as his eyes had an odd and dangerous gleam in them.

'Fifth Soul Skill: Absolute Delay.'

Demon Monarch Alba's eyes widened as he saw that his hurricane was rising gradually as if it was moving in slow motion.

But it wasn't just the flames around him but also his movement causing Alba expression to change, although in slow motion.

'Sixth Soul Skill: Spatial Slash.'

Xie Xie hacked down with his dagger that glowed with a purplish-grey light before a gash appeared on the back on Alba.

Just as Yuanen Yehui appeared in front of him with her Fallen Anima that was giving off a terrifying light before she chopped down.

A perfect arc through the air, Fallen Anima cut through Alba hide, drawing purple blood from his body and causing him to release a grunt.

But it was then that Alba felt the power of Absolute Delay losing effect on him and his body erupting with endless flames.

That caused Xie Xie and Yuanen Yehui to swiftly move back, evading the flames from devouring them in its brilliance.

Just as Alba narrowed him before he called upon a fire on his sword and cyclone to appear on his right side.

Before he then brought them together, fire and the cyclone converged together, forming a massive firestorm that wrapped up and whirled around the sword.

Then with a stomp, he dashed towards Xie Xie, closing the distance between him in an instant and causing Xie Xie's eyes to narrow.

Just as Alba hacked down with his sword, the storm rotating and twisting everything around it as space began to tremble.

Xie Xie watched as a storm hacked down on him, intending to sweep him away and erase him from this world.

'Tsk... It seems using space to divert the attack won't work for this one.' Thought Xie Xie before his eyes began to shine even more.

'Self-Soul Skill: Dimensional Gap.'

Just last the flames reached Xie Xie's forehead, with it causing him to sweat and slowly blacken his Battle Armor.

To the shock of Alba, the flames didn't chop Xie Xie in half but seem to have vanished as ripples appeared in front of Xie Xie.

While Xie Xie was stabbing out with his dagger causing Alba to perceive danger from this one stab. Knowing to trust his intuition, Alba swiftly steps back just as the dagger was close to hitting him but Xie Xie only smiled.

"Are you sure that's safe?"

Just as Xie Xie said this, ripples appeared to the side of Alba before a storm swept out and smashed into him.

'What! Did he teleport it!'

Demon Monarch Alba felt the flames hacking into his body and forcing him through the sky as he tried stabilizing himself.

'Sixth Soul Skill: Darkness Shine.'

'Eight Soul Skill: Daedalus Apocalypse.'

As Alba was sailing through the air, the clouds parted as a sphere of purplish-darkness dropped down from the sky.

Simultaneously, a pillar of darkness broke through the earth below Alba, both piercing towards him and smashing into him.

An ear-splitting explosion rang out, wisps of darkness and purplish-light scattering around.

"How annoying." The voice of Demon Monarch Alba rang out before the sounds of wings flapping could be heard.

Before instantly, a sea of fire appeared, rushing towards Yuanen Yehui who eyes widened as she began taking to the air.

"Useless."

From the sea of fire emerged dozens of apparitions of Demon Monarch Alba, they released an ear-splitting roar before charging at Yuanen Yehui.

As Alba did this, he stepped back, just as Xie Xie appeared above him and hacked down with his dagger.

Yet not before he hacked up with his sword, that was released a brilliant and terrifying purplish-light.

A streak of purplish-gold flames shined as it moved in an arc, burning down space as it moved towards Xie Xie.

Xie Xie's expression changes but he remains calm as his soul rings appeared before they began to shine as a grey field expanded out.

Demon Monarch Alba felt his movement being delayed and slowing down, even the flames that were burning down space was delayed.

Allowing Xie Xie time to quickly twist his body to evade the flames while stabbing Alba arm that was gripping the sword and solidifying it in time.

'Self-Soul Skill: Time Stab.'

'Space-Time Dragon Warps the Earth.'

'Sixth Soul Ring: Spatial Slash.'

'Eighth Soul Ring: Dimensional Cleave.'

Xie Xie stomped down on the ground as he cleaved down with his dagger, cutting through space-time as well even reality.

Dragonic roars rang out as nine dragons broke out of the void, all around Alba before chomping down on him.

While two deep gashes appeared on Alba's body once again, blood splashing and sprouting out like a geyser.

Just as Xie Xie moved back, using space to escape and distancing himself away from Alba. Just as his Absolute Delay wore off.

Alba released a tremendous roar as he let go of his sword that was suspended in time before fiery light began to gather in his hands.

Before punching outwards causing streaks of light to move through the sky, towards Xie Xie who was still moving back.

Xie Xie swiftly stomped down on the ground causing nine void dragons to erupt from the void with an ear-splitting roar.

As they move towards the streak of light that was rushing to him before they smashed into each other.

The fiery light scattered before it started turning into blasts one after another, arranging themselves like a domino effect of explosions.

Xie Xie's expression changed as he saw miniatures explosions appearing all around him but Alba wasn't done as he swung his arm.

This made it, so the explosions of golden fiery light began to move down on Xie Xie with its light shaking and burning space.

Xie Xie clicked his tongue, but he only slashed down in front of him, cutting space before Yuanen Yehui walked out of it.

'Seventh Soul Ring: Fallen Seraphim True Body.'

While Yuanen Yehui produced a phantom enclosing, that was hovering behind her; it was a fallen angel with six wings.

In the fallen hands were two swords that were shining with purplish-gold flames and a terrifying gleam in its eyes.

Just as hundreds of brilliant Fiery lights that were shining like miniature suns began smashing down like a flowing stream. Its heats affected Xie Xie and Yuanen Yehui.

Knowing that there were too many to defend against Xie Xie and Yuanen Yehui began working together.

A grey field began expanding out, time is delayed, and causing the hundreds of fiery lights to slow down.

Just as Yuanen Yehui began hacking, chopping, sweeping, and slashing with purplish-gold flames expanding out from her sword.

Each time her luminous flames made contact with the fiery small suns, they began to explode, flames flying everywhere like fireworks.

But she and Xie Xie were protected from the darkness that was spreading out from her True Body as it also was hacking at the small suns.

As they began breaking through the barrages of miniature suns, Xie Xie was stabbing out with his dagger, stopping some of them in time.

While using his spatial abilities to divert some of them from striking them, Yuanen Yehui expanded a large number of flames.

It didn't take them long to escape from the continuous barrages of the flames. Just as Absolute Delay wore off and the miniature suns crashing in the spot where they were.

Grand ball of flames broke and began crashing and explosions, with the violent explosion becoming stronger and stronger as they connected.

"You survive that, but about this." Alba appeared in front of them with him stabbing out with his sword that was roaring with flames.

Not only that but the purplish-gold flames on his sword began to draw the flames from the series of blast behind, towards Yuanen Yehui and Xie Xie.

Creating an impenetrable curtain of flames that shot up before it descends on them, wishing to submerge and engulf both of the humans.

Yuanen Yehui only narrowed her eyes before releasing a smile that caused Alba to furrow his brows.

'Spiritual Domain: Deep Abyss.'

Yuanen Yehui's eyes had turned deep blue before a vortex began appearing behind her, swirling and twisting as it began to enlarge.

From the unknown abyss, Alba could see countless arms that were dark as the bleak night, as well as screams and wails coming from it.

Alba has seen many things and caused many horrors in his hundreds of thousands of years as a Demon Monarch.

Weakness was something he detests, and lack of courage was something he would punish with all of his might.

It was through this that there was hardly anything that could cause him to ever feel fear or a helpless horror anymore.

Yet when he saw the deep blue vortex behind Yuanen Yehui, he felt an indescribable horror for the first time in a hundred thousand years.

This causes his sword to go off course, missing Xie Xie and Yuanen Yehu, while the curtain of flames that was descending on them.

Was being devoured by the deep blue abyss, with it having no way to resist. Yuanen Yehui's eyes narrowed as she stabbed her Fallen Anima through the head of Alba.

Just as Xie Xie slashed down with his space-time powers, creating a large gash around Alba's neck.

"Die." Said Yuenane Yehui as the Fallen Anime exploded with purplish-gold flames that began to engulf Alba's face.

Yet Demon Monarch Alba couldn't allow himself to go down so easily, as he tried resisting with all of his might.

'Spiritual Domain: Time Arc.'

Xie Xie's eyes turned grey as he back hacked out with his soul rings abilities. Demon Monarch Alba's body started to be covered with gashes all around.

'Space-Time Dragon Freeze the World.'

'Time Dilation.'

While Xie Xie began to move his left arm that started to rotate causing the thoughts of Alba to freeze in time.

As Yuanen Yehui switches to her Great Ape martial soul before gripping her Fallen Anima and forcibly cleaving down with it.

Splitting the body of Demon Monarch Alba in half.
