Awakening Of The Ancient: Rise Of The Fallen 50 Chapter 48: Beginning Of The End

A frown appeared on the face of the Ill.u.s.trious Emperor. He couldn't understand what was happening, but he had a bad feeling in his heart.

He ignored the bad feeling along with the strange weather and tried to pick up Xu Liang, but he couldn't move him in the slightest. It felt like Xu Liang had become an Immortal Mountain that was impossible to move.

His bad feeling was getting even more intense. He felt like he was in danger. He freed Xu Liang's neck and brought his sword out as he stabbed at Xu Liang, but Xu Liang caught the sword with his bare hands.

Ill.u.s.trious Emperor tried freeing his sword, but he wasn't able to move his sword in the slightest.

He s.h.i.+fted his gaze upwards and stared into the eyes of Xu Liang but he felt a chill run down his spine as he saw the emotionless eyes of Xu Liang.

He left the sword as he started flying back, but it was at that moment, an energy wave came out of Xu Liang's body and hit him. He was thrown back like a broken kite as soon as the wave hit him.

He fell to the ground hundreds of meters away from Xu Liang.

Xu Liang didn't move from his position, he didn't even move a single finger as ten big swords made of some unknown energy appeared above the Ill.u.s.trious Emperor.

Ill.u.s.trious Emperor noticed the swords and was shocked out of his mind. He tried sitting up, but he realized that the energy wave that struck him had harmed him even more heavily than he thought. He could barely move.

"s.h.i.+eld of Osiris!" He looked at the swords above his head and formed a s.h.i.+eld to protect himself. 

This was the strongest defensive skill that he could form. It was said that even the Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu was unable to break his s.h.i.+eld in the first try.

The swords started falling down and finally the sword and the s.h.i.+eld collided. As soon as the swords came in contact with the s.h.i.+eld, the s.h.i.+eld disappeared. In fact, it looked like the s.h.i.+eld was scared of the sword.

The swords fell on the Ill.u.s.trious Emperor's body and impaled him. The sword hit his arms and his legs, but not his heart or any vital part of his body.

"Y... you're a monster!" Ill.u.s.trious Emperor let out a scared look on his face as he roared in anger, but there was no reaction on Xu Liang's face. It was not certain if he actually wasn't able to hear Ill.u.s.trious Emperor's words or he simply didn't care.

Xu Liang still didn't make any movement, but another sword appeared above Ill.u.s.trious Emperor's head. The sword looked to be much larger than the previous sword and felt like the sword of Judgement that was floating above the Ill.u.s.trious Emperor's head, ready to make its judgment.

It was at that moment, something unexpected happened. Xu Liang abruptly coughed out a mouthful of blood as he looked down. He could see a sword coming out from his heart.

A sword had penetrated Xu Liang's heart. Someone had stabbed him from behind.

Xu Liang swung his hand which struck War G.o.d Zhen. War G.o.d Zhen flew away and crashed on the ground.

Xu Liang fell to his knees while the sword stayed in his chest. The dark sky again became clear and the scary aura that was coming out from Xu Liang disappeared.

It seemed like Xu Liang gained back control over his body.

"Father!" Xu Ming called out loudly with tears in his eyes. He was about to come towards Xu Liang but Xu Liang stopped him.

"Don't come here! Little Ming... Please don't come here. I'll come to you." Xu Liang let out as he tried standing up, but his feet didn't move.

"Huh... My body has started dying. I won't live for long." He muttered with a disappointed gaze as he gazed at the coffin shaped necklace on his neck. He could feel his strength drowning and his vision darkening.

Xu Liang grabbed the necklace and removed it from his neck.

"I'm sorry Yue, but I don't think that I can fulfill my promise. I'm leaving this world before I can achieve my goals, but I won't let you or Little Ming die." Xu Liang let out softly as he gripped the necklace tightly. Blood came out of his mouth as he was speaking.

" Catch it!" Xu Liang let out loudly as he threw the necklace towards Ming.

Xu Ming caught the coffin shaped necklace. Tears kept falling from his eyes constantly.

"Leave! "

"But father..."

"I said leave! Do you want your mother to die? You know what's in that necklace! You must find the cure and wake your mother up. As for me, unfortunately, I'm not able to come with you. I need to stay here for something important. Don't worry, I'll be fine. Just lea...urgh" Xu Liang was saying when War G.o.d Zhen appeared behind his back. He took the sword out and again stabbed his heart.

"Don't you dare leave!" War G.o.d Zhen said as he gazed at Xu Ming.

Xu Ming gazed at Xu Liang who looked like he would die at any moment, but his eyes didn't look scared. Xu Ming felt like his father's eyes were telling him to be strong and leave." Xu Ming gripped the necklace tightly as he turned his back on everything and walked towards the portal. He couldn't help but turn back as he stood a few centimeters away from the portal.

"Nooo..." War G.o.d Zhen let out as he ran towards the portal but his legs were caught by Xu Liang. 

"You!!!" War G.o.d Zhen fumed in anger as he again took his sword out from Xu Liang's back and swung it. Xu Liang's head was separated from his body.

Xu Ming watched his father being decapitated and couldn't help but take a step back in shock. Before he realized it, he had already entered the portal.

War G.o.d Zhen looked towards the portal and noticed that the portal had closed.

He had no idea when the portal took Xu Ming or what the crystal was. He couldn't ask Xu Liang either as he had just killed him.

"It's all because of you." War G.o.d Zhen gazed at the dead body of Xu Liang in contempt. He was about to kick the lifeless body of Xu Liang, but his expressions changed as he found Xu Liang's body disintegrating into nothingness right before his eyes.
