Where Ningfeng’s arm was severed at the shoulder, purple blood glittering with golden light gushed out. Tao Essence mixed together with True Hades Blood, scattering in space.
“Roar!” Ningfeng let out a long howl. Violent green radiance swirled and danced through the sky, becoming countless streaks of light that merged, condensing into a single line that slashed towards Shi Tianhao, who was defending against Zhanming, like a massive green blade.
On the other side, Juanlong’s face was grave as well. Like Ningfeng’s Flowing Mist of Hades, the boundless icy-blue radiance of the Absolute Condensation Energy of Hades concentrated at a single point, attacking towards Shi Tianhao.
Shi Tianhao did not pay any attention to Ningfeng and Juanlong, and still diverted all of his power to defending against Zhanming.
At this moment, the White Tiger Grand Sage’s terrifying blow landed on Zhanming as well.
Blood and flesh were blasted everywhere as swathes of light rain fell. Whether it was Zhanming or Shi Tianhao, who was shielded by the Twelve Men of Gold, they were both heavily injured.
Huge amounts of silver fur were detached from Zhanming’s back. Purple blood, flickering with golden light, squirted into space; the dark gold radiance that covered his entire body became even darker.
The Taiji Diagram that was Shi Tianhao’s Yingyuan Body, meanwhile, had several terrible wounds torn in it as well, as if it was about to shatter. Cracks appeared on the surface of the Twelve Men of Gold as well, the indestructible power concept instantly diminished.
Although Zhanming has been severely injured, at this instant, he still gritted his teeth and clawed backwards, sweeping up boundless light currents and ripping the world apart as he clawed at the White Tiger Grand Sage.
The White Tiger Grand Sage’s gaze was cold and silent. In terms of close-quarters martial prowess, the White Tiger Tribe was the cream of the crop even among all Demons. Previously, when Zhanming battled him for so long, he also took care to not let the White Tiger Grand Sage get close.
With a roar, the White Tiger Grand Sage clawed out as well, colliding with Zhanming’s claw.
A low, heavy thud sounded in the sky. This sound caused the world around them to seemingly shake together as well, and the Void was completely shattered.
Streaks of dark glow light flickered on the White Tiger Grand Sage’s claw, swirling like electricity and causing the White Tiger Grand Sage’s claw to tremble, unable to continue moving forward.
However, Zhanming’s claw was bloody; obviously, he came out worse.
“As expected, you are only one last tribulation away from completing your Cardinal Tribulations…” Zhanming’s expression was cold. ‘The next time we meet, after I complete a few more tribulations as well, be prepared to die if you have not yet attained Vipralopa.”
As he spoke, the blood on Zhanming’s claws suddenly surged, becoming radiance that fell into the Void, forming countless strange patterns of light. These patterns of light congregated, forming another even larger, even more esoteric rune. The rune was entirely dark gold, flickering with purple light and shocking the wide world.
Zhanming let out a low yell. The dark gold rune suddenly exploded, sweeping up mists of light and enveloping him, Ningfeng, and Juanlong before rocketing up into the sky.
As the White Tiger Grand Sage roared, comets fell from the sky, smashing into the pillar of light enveloping the three Hades Beasts.
The pillar of light trembled unsteadily as it started to shatter, becoming a rain of light that pelted down. However, the three still ascended straight up, on their escape.
Ningfeng’s eyes were blood red as he grabbed the wound on his right shoulder with his left claw. His teeth was gritted tightly as he stared at the Taiji Diagram and the Twelve Men of Gold, gradually becoming smaller below him. “The Celestial Sect of Wonders…”
Juanlong stared at Shi Tianhao coldly as well. However, his expression suddenly changed as his pupils contracted suddenly.
He saw that, from the center of the Taiji Diagram that was Shi Tianhao’s Yingyuan Body, a radiant beam of light shot out.
However, that radiance was completely different from the previous Final Holy Light.
This beam of light was similarly countless radiance and patterns, which became clouds. Within them, there seemed to be anything and everything, the mysteries of the primordial times.
The light enveloped the Taiji Diagram. Immediately, the many cracks and damage on the surface of the Taiji Diagram started to repair rapidly, once again becoming good as new.
It was not healing, or reversing time, or switching between illusions and reality. Instead, it was causing you to be in your original, perfect state in an instant.
If but a little bit of change appeared, it will return to the origin as well.
Another of Shi Tianhao’s Holy Light of Creation – Origin!
Under the radiance of the Origin Holy Light, not only did Shi Tianhao’s own injuries disappear rapidly, the splendor of the Twelve Men of Gold were restored as well as they vibrated slightly.
Although the cracks on the surface of the Men of Gold were still there, the indestructible power concept surged forth yet again, linking into one.
“One claw…that’s not enough for me to eat.” The Taiji Diagram spun with great force, returning to human form. Shi Tianhao, who has switched from the Yingyuan Body to the Huangshen Body, chased rapidly towards Zhanming and the other two Hades Beasts along with the White Tiger Grand Sage.
At this moment, the Twelve Men of Gold on top of his head changed form thunderously. The gold bodies disappeared, becoming streaks of radiance. The radiance congulated in the Void, becoming a glorious city entirely composed of light, transparent and brilliant.
The spiritual energy of the glorious city added itself to Shi Tianhao’s body, strengthening him. Shi Tianhao’s Huangshen Body, already containing enormous explosive force, increased further in speed, penetrating the Void and caught up with Zhanming.
Zhanming was busy dealing with the White Tiger Grand Sage right now. Facing the pursuing Shi Tianhao, Juanlong and Ningfeng have no choice but to meet him.
A bolt of purple radiance, flickering with green light, and a bolt of icy-blue radiance poured down towards Shi Tianhao like a waterfall, seeking to smash him back to the ground.
However, Shi Tianhao let out a laugh as a brilliant streak of light fired out from between his brows again. It was still the Origin Holy Light, but this time, it wasn’t used on himself, but shot towards Juanlong and Ningfeng’s attacks.
The Absolute Condensation Energy of Hades, illuminated by Shi Tianhao’s Origin Holy Light, instantly froze in the air. The icy-blue radiance shook constantly, as if it was going to return to its origins and disappear without a trace.
Juanlong’s eyebrows were locked as his demonic powers bellowed. The icy-blue Absolute Condensation Energy of Hades gathered continuously, suppressing Shi Tianhao’s Origin Holy Light.
Meanwhile, at the other side, Ningfeng’s injuries have already begun to significantly affect his fighting prowess. The purple light formed from his demonic powers fell onto Shi Tianhao’s body; Shi Tianhao did not dodge, and took the hit directly with his powerful Huangshen Body.
With the help of the glorious city, the violent purple light, flickering with green light, was unable to harm Shi Tianhao’s body.
Shi Tianhao did not halt his steps and continued forward, bearing Juanlong and Ningfeng’s attacks as he charged to right in front of them.
The terrifying air of desolateness spread across the surface of the Huangshen Body. It was as if a primordial universe has exploded at this instant within that body, demonstrating the evolution of the world.
The violent strength merged completely with the glorious city as Shi Tianhao’s body smashed right at Zhanming and the other two Hades.
At the other side, meanwhile, the White Tiger Grand Sage’s attacks were ceaselessly raining down as well. Caught between the two fronts, the pillar of light enveloping the three Hades Great Demons shattered completely!
The escape trajectory of the three Hades were forcibly interrupted by Shi Tianhao and the White Tiger Grand Sage, intercepting them.
Shi Tianhao breathed out and enunciated. The glorious city became the energy bodies of the Twelve Divine Generals, adding to his Huangshen Body as he threw a punch!
The surrounding Void, stirred by this punch, seemed to be swept up as the power of the Multiverse was added to the fist.
The vast strength instantly caused Ningfeng and Juanlong’s breathing to pause involuntarily for a moment. Zhanming let out a long howl as the three long horns atop his head flashed incessantly; suddenly, his whole body flashed with a radiance, half gold and half silver, that alternated and flowed in a defensive pattern, stopping Shi Tianhao’s fist.
However, the White Tiger Grand Sage’s attack followed immediately. Cold and sharp currents of light landed on the gold and silver radiance before Zhanming like the blade of a knife.
Although the gold and silver-colored radiance was flowing continuously, resembling the rise and fall of the sun and the moon and seeming to flip the Yin and the Yang, it was still shaking constantly as it resisted the White Tiger Grand Sage and Shi Tianhao’s attacks, as if it might shatter at any moment.
Shi Tianhao dispersed the Twelve Divine Generals. Twelve projections of Titans scattered around the Void in all directions, trapping the three Hades Beasts firmly in the center.
The Twelve Divine Generals deployed in an array, gradually expanding. Countless patterns of light currents were formed, becoming a massive formation that enveloped the Void.
Although overall, the formation still looked incomplete and fragmented, but the strength within could already flow freely. Emerald-green radiance radiated outwards continuously.
Under the emerald light, the surrounding space, fragmented and ruined by the violent battle, gradually stabilized.
However, the three Hades Great Demons – Zhanming, Ningfeng, and Juanlong – were boxed in by this Celestial Sky Formation that was the energy bodies of the Twelve Divine Generals. Inside the formation, they were enduring constant, countless attacks.
The White Tiger Grand Sage and Shi Tianhao himself were inside the formation as well. They attacked Zhanming’s defenses with brute force, seeking to smash this tough nut.
The ball of light, half gold and half silver, was like a candle in the wind at this moment, swaying unstably and dangerously.
Gazing at this scene, the Lu Yuan Grand Sage and the Royal House Lord of the Northern Tribes’ hearts were overcame with shock.
Since the Hades Tribe re-emerged into the world, they have been conducting themselves with impunity, casting a shadow over the entire Divine Lands.
Mount Taihua was given up voluntarily. The Great Void Sect garrison retreated, concentrating their strength and fortifying the position at Mount Baiyun, even drawing upon the Draconic Energy of the two empires, the Great Zhou and the Great Qin, for aid. Even so, it was still penetrated and taken by the Hades Tribe in a short period of time.
Although part of the reason was that the main forces of the Great Void Sect and the Supreme Heavenly Mirror have entered the Black Sea, such strength also drew the attention of all human cultivators of the Divine Lands.
The current Sect Leader of the Great Void Sect, Yan Nanlai, sortied and retreated, and he was pursued by three Hades Great Demons.
However, at this moment, all three of them were trapped here, and instead, they were about to fall to Shi Tianhao and the White Tiger Grand Sage.
The Lu Yuan Grand Sage and the Royal House Lord of the Northern Tribes have long known about the power of the White Tiger Grand Sage. In contrast, the strength that Shi Tianhao demonstrated was even more shocking.
After he rushed to the aid of Xiling City and helped the Great Qin Empire survive the calamity, Shi Tianhao aggressively suppressed Ningfeng and Juanlong. Although they have not yet passed their tribulations, their demonic powers and Abhijnas were even stronger than some Cardinal Tribulations Beginning Stage Demons.
However, strengthened by the City in the Sky, Shi Tianhao fought the two Hades Great Demons alone, such that they could barely hold their own. Afterwards, he grappled with Zhanming, who was a match for the White Tiger Grand Sage. Such achievements were enough to shock the entire Grand Celestial World.
Thinking back to Wang Lin and the others, both the Lu Yuan Grand Sage and the Royal House Lord of the Northern Tribes were exclaiming in their hearts. Another of the Leader of the Celestial Sect of Wonders’ disciples have grown to be a powerful master that the entire Grand Celestial World must pay attention to, and have begun to head for the center of the grandest stage of this world!
