Chapter 42: Divine Reversal, Luo Hua Injured and Escapes
It was because he could retreat into the black giant coffin in times of crisis that Li Yi dared to slaughter ferocious beasts and demonic cultivators recklessly on the battlefield.
Li Yi didn't think he would really have to hide in the giant coffin, after all, the Golden Immortal was no threat to him, and the Mahayana Golden Immortals generally wouldn't bother to take action against a Golden Immortal.
This time the injury was too severe, and the goal had been achieved, continuing to kill would be meaningless. It's estimated that soon, the Four Great Sovereigns will take the stage, so Li Yi simply hid in the giant coffin.
Li Yi lay in a space within the giant coffin, mobilizing his life force to continuously repair the wounds inside his body, while at the same time summarizing the battles of this period.
"My current combat power should be comparable to that of a general Da Luo Golden Immortal, especially the last move." Thinking of this, Li Yi felt somewhat worried. "The last move has great power, but it also basically drains the killing intent and life force within my body, so I can only use it as a last resort to save my life."
Li Yi usually manifests his intent when facing enemies, forming "Lotus Flower" and "Taiji Diagram" external appearances to attack. However, the Jianmo Sword Path is different, and these external appearances can only exert a portion of their power. It's not that the external appearances are the problem, but rather Li Yi's spiritual willpower is difficult to fully support the manifestation of these intents as external appearances. Therefore, he can only rely on the sword body itself to execute the complete Jianmo Sword Path; otherwise, Da Han would be unable to escape the Taiji Diagram.
Li Yi was constantly summarizing in the giant coffin, while the battle outside had also reached its final stage. Before the war, there were nearly 10 billion monks and over 12 trillion fierce beasts. Now, only more than 7 billion monks and over a thousand billion fierce beasts are left, among which the Great Luo Golden Immortals have less than 1,500 people left, with more than half having fallen. This shows how cruel this war is.
Four figures emerged simultaneously from the void, namely Hong Jun, Yang Mei, Luo Hou and Shen Ni.
"ROAR!!!!!"
The God Emperor first revealed his true form, unlike last time, the giant beast claws had an additional blood-stained divine gun, which emitted endless killing intent and contained a will to destroy everything and annihilate all living things. Just looking at it made one feel as if they were in the midst of a boundless bloody tide.
This gun is called the God-Slaying Gun, transformed from the stem of a 36th-grade Qinglian. It's an extreme-quality pre-heavenly spiritual treasure, with the only exception being that it can't suppress the aura of its wielder. Its might is comparable to that of a pre-heavenly ultimate treasure, specializing in slaughter and being the ultimate treasure of the killing path.
"Unexpectedly, this gun fell into your hands," Yang Mei's face was somewhat solemn, after all, a weapon that could be compared to the First Heaven Treasure couldn't be underestimated, especially when it fell into the hands of a master like Shen Ni, the power it unleashed was simply terrifying.
Yang Mei then took out a golden willow branch, continuously devouring the surrounding space, with an astonishing power.
A quaint banner appeared above Hong Jun's head, and a wisp of chaotic air drifted out. The surrounding space cracked with fine fissures. This quaint banner was the pre-heavenly treasure - Pangu Banner.
Luoye was not to be outdone either, a black lotus platform appeared under his feet, and behind him was a one-zhang sword energy array, with four faint sword shadows.
"Ahhh!!!"
A gigantic beast claw held a divine spear, slightly tilted towards the sky with one finger pointed upwards. "Boom!" Multiple thunderbolts descended from the sky, and the killing intent and evil energy in the entire Desolate World converged crazily, extremely fast. Wave after wave of "rumbling" sounds shocked the entire Desolate World, and endless killing intent and evil energy formed a gigantic black whirlpool.
A shocking momentum rose against the sky, bolt after bolt of thunder fell continuously, countless killing intent and evil energy gathered, finally, the dark curtain that had shrouded the Hongyuan for over a million years disappeared, transforming into a hundred million zhang long heavenly gun shadow.
The vast and powerful pressure caused the entire starry sky to tremble, with large patches of spatial cracks appearing, and the entire battlefield was filled with deep chasms that reached as far as ten thousand meters.
"Kill!!!"
The gun's shadow pressed down, "BOOM!!!" A hundred million zhang deep chasm formed between Shen Ni and Yang Mei, a deafening roar that covered all the killing sounds on the battlefield. The massive gun shadow shrunk to over ten zhang at an unparalleled speed, piercing through the void, and in the blink of an eye, it appeared right in front of Yang Mei.
"Hey!!!" Yang Mei let out a low shout, and the golden willow branch intertwined to form a light screen of over 100 zhang. The countless starlight in the void was strongly attracted, and the light screen instantly expanded to tens of millions of zhang, forming layers of obstruction that blocked Yang Mei's path.
"Bang!!!"
A powerful ripple caused the entire starry sky to collapse in an instant, revealing numerous spatial fissures tens of thousands of meters long.
……
A massive demonic sound wave was emitted from Luo Ye's body, containing endless killing intent, transforming into swords that charged towards Hong Jun.
The demon shadow escaped from Luo's body at this moment, and a boundless sea of corpses and blood appeared under his feet. One by one, the resentful spirits formed into crimson skulls, letting out mournful long howls.
The demon shadow grasped downwards with its foot, grabbing the entire mountain of corpses and sea of blood in its hand. Under the effect of several seals, the entire mountain of corpses and sea of blood transformed into a gigantic claw dripping with fresh blood.
"Ka-chak", withered bone giant claws tore through the void, closely followed by the magic sound transformed into a sword and went away.
Hongjun's face was expressionless as he held the Pangu flag horizontally in front of him, sweeping it towards the giant claw, unleashing countless chaotic sword auras that filled the air and killed.
……
The scene of the four greats fighting was terrifying, the entire space was constantly collapsing, and a large number of giant cracks were cut out on the ground by the huge aura.
Innumerable monks died in the aftermath of the battle between the four Supremes, causing the entire battlefield to shift a million miles away.
The duel between the two masters was extremely fierce, with eyes blazing red as they charged at each other, their blood-stained battle knives showing no mercy.
Suddenly, in the area of the four great ultimate battles, a shocking roar echoed out, "Hong Jun, you actually possess the remnants of the creation jade butterfly! Ah, you two are despicable and shameless!"
Luóu was enveloped by a piece of jade butterfly's falling light, trapped inside and unable to escape. Móyǐng raised his massive fist to continuously strike the light screen, while Hóngjūn held the Pángǔ banner with Yáng Méi and the two jointly attacked Shén Nì.
In fact, the Jade Butterfly is precious but its attack power is not strong. However, the seal on it is extremely powerful and even Luo Yu can't break it open for a moment.
At this time, Hong Jun and Yang Mei joined forces to attack Shen Ni. Once Shen Ni fell, it goes without saying that Luo Hui's fate would be a tragedy.
"ROAR!!!!!"
The gigantic God-slaying spear danced across the sky, stirring up the entire starry expanse. Endless killing intent filled the entire battlefield, while Hong Jun continuously swung out chaotic sword auras. The golden willow branch in Yang Mei's hand was also extremely terrifying, leaving nothing but emptiness wherever it passed.
Even if Shen Ji reversed the heavens, under the joint attack of Hong Jun and Yang Mei, he began to decline, let alone that Hong Jun and Yang Mei, these two old antiques left over from the chaos, were slightly stronger than him.
If it were one on one, the outcome would be uncertain, but now that it's two against one, the result is already decided. The heavily injured giant transformed back into a human form.
Shen's resolute face revealed a hint of unwillingness, and he finally let out a sigh of resignation. The victor is king, the loser is a bandit - he wouldn't scold the two for being despicable, after all, if given the chance, he would do the same thing.
"Hmph, I'd rather die than let you have your way", Shen Ni's body suddenly emitted a boundless radiance, forming a massive sphere of light that charged towards Hong Jun and Yang Mei.
"No good, he's going to self-destruct"
The two were greatly shocked and separately used the Pangu flag and golden willow branch to wrap around their bodies, directly tearing through space to escape.
Bang!!!
Bang!!!
Two deafening explosions shook the entire Honghuang, and a resentful voice was faintly heard, "Hongjun, you forced me to self-destruct my magic shadow, billions of years of hard work were destroyed in an instant. I won't let you off."
Shen Yue's self-destruction combined with Luo Yu's self-destructive magic shadow, resulting in the formation of a terrifying black hole thousands of meters high on the battlefield, instantly devouring nearly half of the remaining fierce beasts and cultivators.
Hong Jun and Yang Mei slowly emerged, gazing at each other with a hint of excitement. They hadn't expected Shen Ni to be so fierce, choosing self-destruction instead. With Luo Hui's self-destructing magic shadow added to the mix, they were lucky to have escaped quickly; otherwise, they might have fallen. Even so, both of them suffered severe injuries.
Hong Jun stretched out his hand to catch the flying creation jade butterfly, and then wiped it with Pangu fan. The black hole gradually disappeared. Then, he flew away without looking back.
Yang Mei glanced at the brutal battlefield, Yang Liu's branch swished, a golden light cut towards the remaining ferocious beasts and Mo Yu cultivators, causing the ferocious beasts and Mo Yu cultivators to almost be completely annihilated. Afterwards, she also transformed into a blurry figure and left.
