Desolate Devouring Art - Chapter 1493 - Godlike Power
Chapter 1493 – Godlike Power
Liu Wuxie’s blade intent carried world force, and it no longer qualified as an ordinary mythical art because that same blade intent also held a wisp of a quasi-immortal rune.
He stripped the quasi-immortal rune from the Memory Talisman, threw it into the Sky Devouring Divine Cauldron, and refined it. When he infused that quasi-immortal rune into the blade intent, the aura it released surged thousands of times beyond its previous level, and that was the Quasi-Immortal power.
Everyone around them turned pale as the sight before them muddled their thoughts, leaving their minds empty.
Many people gaped, half-convinced they were dreaming, because it was unfathomable that someone at the Void Realm could unleash such power.
Stones skittered across the ground as space shattered, and even time seemed to freeze while the blade intent carried a hint of eternity. The intent behind this attack had already surpassed the limits of heaven and earth, brushing the threshold of immortal arts. No wonder the cultivators at the Heaven Gaze Realm wore fear on their faces.
Thunder rumbled, laced with soul energy, and Liu Wuxie’s soul energy now matched the seventh-level Earth Immortal Realm. In a direct clash of soul energy, he stood no weaker than Mo He, Yan Shan, and the others.
An exclamation rose from the surroundings, followed by a string of sharp, stunned breaths. “What a terrifying blade intent. How did Liu Wuxie manage to do it?”
Everyone’s eyes traced the blade’s arc, and they were too shocked to care as the world around them collapsed.
Space began to sink, and the sun and moon lost their luster, as though doomsday had arrived.
Vanya’s Doomsday Tempest had already painted an apocalyptic scene, and thunderclouds now gathered above Mount Dragon City. The clouds churned as a terrifying force hid within the storm, and that was the might of the elven race.
Mo He’s eyes were wide open with fury as the blade intent locked onto him, and he fought to wrench himself free.
Yan Shan roared and suddenly charged at Liu Wuxie, determined to seize this chance to kill him.
“Yan Shan, you managed to escape the other time, but you won’t be so lucky today,” Zhuge Ming said. After learning that the witchcraft insect that had tormented his wife had come from the Profound Azure Gate, which had long colluded with the Grand Unity Sect, vengeance had gnawed at him relentlessly.
After the events in Nightmare City, Zhuge Ming had comprehended a wisp of the Heaven Gaze Realm, and at most, he needed another year or two to step into it.
Rumbling waves slammed down, and Yan Shan intercepted Zhuge Ming, blocking him from reaching Liu Wuxie.
“Go kill Liu Wuxie even if you have to perish with him!” Yan Shan roared, ordering the others to strike. With the battle already at this point, he knew escape would not come easily. Since that was the case, they might as well stake everything on taking Liu Wuxie down.
The Heavenly Dragon Sect’s experts were already on their way, and they would arrive soon.
By sending so many elites to Mount Dragon City, the Grand Unity Sect had violated the agreement between the two sects, and it signaled an omen of war. After all, Mount Dragon City belonged to the Heavenly Dragon Sect, and members of the Grand Unity Sect rarely came here.
Elder Tian Yang and Elder Qi Yun quickly broke free from the spiritual array’s restraint and charged toward Liu Wuxie.
Meanwhile, the Heaven-Severing Strike had already descended, and no one could save Mo He anymore. They only intended to seize the moment Liu Wuxie killed Mo He and use it to kill him in return.
The space around Mo He collapsed into complete darkness as Liu Wuxie invoked the Gate of Darkness. If he relied on the Heaven-Severing Strike alone, killing Mo He would not be easy, and at best, he could only inflict heavy injuries. But with the Gate of Darkness and Xiao Rou’s restraint working together, the combined attack finally took effect.
“Myriad threads!”
The spiritual array shifted, and countless threads appeared, woven from true essence as they pinned down Tian Yang and Qi Yun while they charged over.
With a loud rumble, the Gate of Darkness descended from the sky, and the impact made Mo He stagger as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Liu Wuxie had refined the Great Dao of Wood’s fragment in the Outer Astral Spacetime, and he had also absorbed a vast amount of immortal energy inside the Heavenly Deity Monument. He no longer resembled the person he had once been.
Most importantly, Liu Wuxie had refined the Dark Evil Emperor and the others. When it came to the Earth Immortal Realm’s laws, Liu Wuxie could crush every Earth Immortal present.
“Liu Wuxie, damn you!” The Gate of Darkness crushed down on Mo He, and his body began to crack as the blade ray descended from the sky. The terrifying blade, fusing world force with the profundity of eternity, cleanly cut through Mo He.
With a loud crack, Mo He split in two, reduced into countless chunks of flesh that rained down from the sky.
The Sky Devouring Divine cauldron appeared out of nowhere and devoured all the energy and laws, channeling them into Liu Wuxie.
When Tian Yang and Qi Yun witnessed Mo He’s death, their hearts bled. They could not describe what it felt like to watch an old friend die. Yet the endless threads bound them tightly, and they could do nothing to help.
With one person dead, the thirteen experts dropped to twelve, and the spiritual array’s power grew even stronger. With A’Lei and A’Li holding their position as the spiritual array’s core, the impact they endured amounted to nothing, and their bodies remained unscathed.
During their time inside the Heavenly Deity Monument, Liu Wuxie had remodeled their bodies countless times.
“How does the Heavenly Dao Society have so many experts all of a sudden? I clearly recall that up until yesterday, they were only in the Void Realm. Just what did they experience?”
Many people clutched their heads, on the verge of going insane, because they couldn’t wrap their minds around it.
“Yesterday?” Sneered a cultivator.
“Yesterday, when I visited the Medicinal Hall, their leader was only at the Void Realm, and it had been at the Void Realm, and it has only been a few hours since then.”
No one could comprehend how someone at the Void Realm could reach the Earth Immortal Realm overnight, and even those at the Heaven Gaze Realm couldn’t make sense of it.
If they could figure out how Liu Wuxie managed to increase the cultivation of everyone in Heavenly Dao Society, they could replicate it in their own sects as well.
Given their current pace of development, Heavenly Dao Society was likely to surpass sects with legacies of over ten thousand years in less than a year. The thought alone sent chills down everyone’s spines, and they all looked at Liu Wuxie with fear.
The ground kept cracking, and the damage spread to an even wider region.
“Liu Wuxie must possess a treasure that can mask time, allowing him to help others make a breakthrough in their cultivation in a short time,” said the experts at the Heaven Gaze Realm, suspecting that Liu Wuxie carried a treasure that could cheat time itself and let him disregard the concept of time.
“Does such a treasure even exist?” Many cultivators at the Earth Immortal Realm asked.
The one who spoke earlier was the Divine Sun-Moon Palace’s palace lord.
“Eternal, undying, immortal, and one. Anyone who can comprehend them would be able to stop time,” explained the palace lord of the Divine Sun-Moon Palace.
There were countless intents in the world, but comprehending them was even more challenging than climbing the sky. Still, as long as anyone could comprehend even one of them, they would be able to stand at the pinnacle of Dao.
With a loud explosion that sounded like the world collapsing, an invisible force swept outward. All the buildings within a ten-thousand-meter radius began to shake violently. But fortunately, many buildings in Mount Dragon City were fortified with runes, preventing them from collapsing entirely.
Even so, the affected area remained vast, and many buildings suffered damage. If the fight had taken place in a mountain range, countless mountains would’ve already been destroyed by now.
The remaining twelve elders increased their pace as they attacked the spiritual array, and they even ignited their blood essence.
“The battle formation can’t hold them much longer! They’re all at the pinnacle of the Earth Immortal Realm!” Bi Gongyu and the others were too weak and still hadn’t reached the pinnacle of the Earth Immortal Realm. Thus, the power they could exhibit remained limited.
After killing Mo He, Liu Wuxie didn’t press forward to attack; instead, he returned to the battle formation to take charge.
“Heavenly Dipper Seven Stars!”
“Earthly Fiends Seven Spirits!”
“Thunder God’s Descend!”
“Lawless Unbound!”
Liu Wuxie began to alter the battle formation. The Moon Tribulation Incineration Array rapidly contracted, shrinking the battlefield as Liu Wuxie planned to take them out one by one.
If all twelve of them clustered together, the battle formation would struggle to trap them all. His only chance lay in eliminating them one by one and steadily weakening their strength.
Thunder surged as thunderbolts churned in the sky. Since Liu Wuxie had experienced several tribulations, his control over lightning had already far exceeded that of ordinary cultivators.
Vanya cast the Doomsday Tempest once more, unleashing countless magic arrows that shot out like a tidal wave and locked onto an elder from the Divine Alchemy Sect.
Meanwhile, Gu Yu and the others stepped onto the heavenly dipper positions, moving in sync with the battle formation’s operation.
The men took the heavenly dipper, while the women took the earthly fiend. Xu Lingxue and the other women stepped onto the earthly fiend’s positions, forming a heavenly dipper and earthly fiend formation.
As yin and yang energies began to circulate, the battle formation’s overall power spiked even further. Light and dark also fused into the battle formation, hurling the twelve experts into boundless darkness.
This was where the real killing move came into play: darkness severed their connections, forcing them to fight alone.
“The slaughter is about to begin.” Due to the darkness laws, those outside couldn’t see what was happening inside.
Bi Gongyu and the others also lost their vision in the darkness, but Liu Wuxie stayed with them and constantly gave them directions on where to attack.
“Xiao Luo, now!” Liu Wuxie called out, and Xiao Luo unleashed her sword rays like a torrential downpour.
Liu Wuxie locked onto the Divine Alchemy Sect’s elder. The elder thrashed and struggled to break free, but the sword ray, empowered by the Scarlet Firmament Sword, surged like a crushing tide and sent him into a frantic scramble.
The moment he backed away to avoid Xiao Luo’s attack, Liu Wuxie’s instruction continued, “A’Lei, A’Li!”
“Got it!” A’Lei let out a roar and struck together with A’Li, who drove their punches forward as sheer power nearly ripped through the veil of darkness. The power of their punches had already reached the pinnacle of the Earth Immortal Realm.
Countless pressurizing arrays flared to life, and the sheer force of their punches gathered into a river that slammed straight into the Divine Alchemy Sect’s elder.
In a one-on-one fight, A’Lei could already contend with experts at the pinnacle of the Earth Immortal Realm. When that force hit, the Divine Alchemy Sect’s elder felt as though two hammers had smashed into him, and he spat out blood as his face turned pale.
“Lingxue, it’s your turn now. Hit him with your Martial Soul Art!” Liu Wuxie instructed.
Xu Lingxue, Jian Xing’er, Murong Yi, and Chen Ruoyan began to release their martial souls, unleashing a series of explosions.
Although the Heavenly Dao Society lacked in other things, it had plenty of martial souls, especially since they had refined countless powerful astral beasts into martial souls over this period. Once they detonated them all at once, they could even kill cultivators at the high levels of the Earth Immortal Realm.
“I can’t accept this!”
As the martial souls detonated, the Divine Alchemy Sect elder was torn apart, piece by piece.
“This is outright bullying!” Many people began to sympathise with the Grand Unity Sect and the Divine Alchemy Sect.
Only experts at the Heaven Gaze Realm could tear apart such a terrifying battle formation.
The Heavenly Dao Society didn’t have any experts at the Heaven Gaze Realm, but it could still contend with them by relying on this battle formation.
“Kill!” While the Divine Alchemy Sect’s elder was injured, Xiao Rou quickly bound him with her vines, and the Heretic Blade flew out to decapitate the elder.
In no more than three breaths, the Heavenly Dao Society had taken out another enemy through flawless coordination.
