Chapter 2628 - 2627: Divine Spirits Within the Heavenly King Tower, Thousand-Eyed Eagle King at Full Power

The Thousand-Eyed Traveler really hadn't expected that Protector Hei would actually go all in with a mutual-destruction plan.

By the time he wanted to struggle free, it was already too late.

Protector Hei's speed was extremely fast, carrying Supreme momentum as he directly seized the Thousand-Eyed Traveler.

Immediately after, the World Map descended, swallowing both of their figures within.

Seeing this scene, the Thousand-Eyed Eagle King frowned slightly.

Now, on their side, only he was left.

And on the opposite side, only Protector Bai remained.

His gaze fell upon Protector Bai.

He spoke lightly.

"You can't stop me."

"Step back at once, and you might yet keep your life."

"How would I know if I don't try?" Protector Bai bared his teeth in a grin.

He chose, resolute and unyielding, to stand in front of the Thousand-Eyed Eagle King.

The Thousand-Eyed Eagle King no longer hesitated.

He moved.

His movements were fast—so fast that his body turned into afterimages.

His form was originally that of a black eagle walking on two feet.

But the instant he moved, his body transformed into a soaring war-eagle.

A pair of wings suddenly burst out from his back.

Then, in less than a second, he was already standing in front of Protector Bai.

The claws in his hands swept out like crashing mountains and surging seas.

"Boom—"

They slammed heavily down onto Protector Bai's body.

Protector Bai didn't even have time to react.

He probably hadn't imagined that the Thousand-Eyed Eagle King's speed would be this terrifying.

So by the time the other appeared before him and he finally reacted, wanting to dodge—

It was still a bit too late.

Half of his body was directly raked through by the Thousand-Eyed Eagle King's claws.

Those claws were bladed to the extreme, as if they could cut through anything.

"Pupupupu—"

The sound of blades slicing flesh rang out.

Protector Bai's body was directly cut in half.

But fortunately, Protector Bai's strength was great; after half of his body escaped—

Flesh and blood regrew, restoring him completely.

Even so, it was enough to make his heart pound in terror.

He already knew that among the five, the Thousand-Eyed Eagle King was the strongest.

But actually clashing head-on, it was still shock beyond words.

The other was even stronger than he had imagined.

In his eyes, the Thousand-Eyed Eagle King's power had already surpassed Full Enlightenment.

Especially after comprehending the Cosmic Force—he had already fused the Cosmic Force into every move of his body.

One should know that when a cultivator first grasps the Cosmic Force, they can only crudely call upon it.

Just like Protector Bai's current level.

Right now he could only use it in a simple way.

But the Thousand-Eyed Eagle King had already stepped into the next stage.

That is, thoroughly integrating the Cosmic Force.

With a casual wave of his hand, he could wield world-upending power.

"What, still not planning to back off?"

The Thousand-Eyed Eagle King said coldly.

Once he made a move, it was a Thunderbolt strike.

The gap between the two was already clear.

In response to the Thousand-Eyed Eagle King's words, Protector Bai let out a cold laugh.

He slowly raised the golden ancient tower in his hand.

"Heavenly King Tower!"

This too was an extraordinary treasure.

This ancient tower possessed multiple abilities.

Its most basic ability was to push strength… speed and defense to the extreme.

But such an ability was still not enough when facing the Thousand-Eyed Eagle King.

The ancient tower floated once more.

From it emanated a force of Suppression.

"With the tower I summon spirits, Divine Spirits Pierce the Heavens."

An astounding aura erupted from Protector Bai's body.

That aura soared into the sky.

It shot straight into the depths of the clouds, staining the entire horizon.

The ancient tower's surface was lit with golden radiance.

A figure slowly emerged.

It was a being clad in armor, massive in stature, like a Divine Spirit incarnate.

He appeared behind the Heavenly King Tower.

Then he merely waved his great hand.

And took the Heavenly King Tower into his grip.

The Heavenly King Tower instantly swelled hundreds of times larger.

This was the Heavenly King, the Divine Spirit of the Heavenly King Tower itself.

He resided permanently within the tower, long since fused as one with it.

Now that he had emerged, Divine Might surged, world-upending and utterly domineering.

...…

The Divine Spirit swept his hand; that gigantic palm was like layers of clouds in the heavens, stretching without end, spanning a million miles of living world.

"Boom…"

Terrifying power flooded out.

The moment that great hand descended.

The Thousand-Eyed Eagle King frowned slightly.

But he did not retreat.

He likewise thrust out the claws in his hands.

Those claws were magnified hundreds of times over, almost as large as the Divine Spirit's palm.

Cold light even flashed along the claws, making one's hair stand on end.

Every detail of those claws was clearly visible.

"Divine Spirit!"

The Thousand-Eyed Eagle King chuckled.

Even if an Ancient God were to resurrect today, I would still cut down gods.

"Rumble, rumble…"

The instant the claws and the Divine Spirit's massive palm collided—

The entire world changed.

Countless winds and clouds surged up, churning the Firmament into turmoil that would not settle.

The void all around them kept shattering.

Space looked like broken glass, covered in countless dense cracks.

Seeing this, even the others still engaged in battle all moved far away from these two.

None of them wanted to be caught in the blast.

As the explosions in Space gradually subsided—

The true sight of the clash between the two emerged within.

In the end, the Thousand-Eyed Eagle King still came out on top.

His right claw shattered the Divine Spirit's arm, even crushing half of the Divine Spirit's body.

Yet at this moment, the Divine Spirit did not collapse.

On the contrary, he still had strength left; raising the Heavenly King Tower in his hand, he attempted to Suppress the Thousand-Eyed Eagle King.

In a sense, the Heavenly King Tower was quite similar to the World Map.

As long as it absorbed the Thousand-Eyed Eagle King into the Heavenly King Tower, it could temporarily imprison him.

Buying the Old Lady more time to extend her life.

At this moment, atop the Heavenly King Tower—

Yellow light flowed down from the base of the tower, falling upon the Thousand-Eyed Eagle King's body.

So long as you were struck by this yellow beam, no matter where you hid, you would be drawn into the Heavenly King Tower.

Protector Bai seemed to have seized the advantage.

He bet everything on the Divine Spirit suffering heavy injuries, using that chance to lay a trap for the Thousand-Eyed Eagle King.

But before he could breathe a sigh of relief—

The Thousand-Eyed Eagle King's back once more sprouted wings.

With the wings' blessing, the Thousand-Eyed Eagle King's speed was lightning-fast.

Even the Heavenly King Tower, for a time, could do nothing to him.

This scene utterly surpassed Protector Bai's understanding.

His Heavenly King Tower, in all these years, had never made a mistake.

This was the first time.

The Thousand-Eyed Eagle King gave a cold laugh.

He looked at Protector Bai and said,

"Your Heavenly King Tower can't contain this king—but this king is about to take your life."

The Thousand-Eyed Eagle King dodged the Heavenly King Tower while simultaneously launching attacks at Protector Bai.

This time, he went all out, holding nothing back.

Feathers began to grow out of the skin over his body.

The feathers burst through the flesh, tough and powerful.

And the Thousand-Eyed Eagle King's eyes turned blood-red.

Suddenly, he appeared behind Protector Bai.

One hand clamped around the other's throat.

His speed was so fast, it had already surpassed Protector Bai's range of vision.
