Chapter 1998 – Willow Deity’s Last Stand
Land of Darkness, this was another battlefield!
In this place, dark clouds surged, the land splitting to pieces, the endless great earth caving in. The magma that surged from underground was all black-colored.
Willow Deity was fighting a great battle against Feather Emperor!
Their battle was incredibly intense. The entire great world was destroyed, stars breaking apart, groups of them falling, becoming ruined earth. However, darkness source continued to spread outwards.
In this world, there was thick darkness source!
“Kill!”
Right now, there was no choice, nor was there a way out, battle was the only option. The originally auspicious and gentle Willow Deity even slaughtered its way out with true flames, fighting a bloody battle there.
Feather Emperor was extremely strong, the most powerful of the three half immortal emperors. In the past, it was his spear that killed the predecessor from the Age of Emperor Collapse. Now, his spear still had that individual’s blood.
“It’s useless. Back then, you weren’t my opponent, and even now, you still aren’t!” Feather Emperor’s voice was incredibly cold. He held the spear in hand, stabbing forward again.
Hong!
Even though they were millions and millions of li from each other, the attack arrived in an instant. The spearpoint pierced through the great cosmos, nothing it couldn’t pierce. It was unstoppable, nothing able to stand in its path!
The scarlet red spearhead flowed with blood, appearing extremely horrifying!
“Shameless! Back then, if it wasn’t for the three of you working together, if you truly fought one on one against me, who could say for sure who would come out on top?!”
A pagoda cried out, entirely snow-white and sparkling, ten layers in total. It released powerful half emperor level power.
This was the Little Pagoda from back then. It still had an unyielding nature, as well as regret and resentment. It knew that these were the emotions brought by the half immortal emperor bones after merging into its pagoda body.
Hong!
Willow Deity attacked. Right now, the tree was sparkling and translucent, swirling with a flame that covered it within, making it look extremely brilliant.
Primal chaos branches lashed out, striking against the spear, releasing keng qiang noises. Dazzling radiance erupted here.
At the same time, the other branches moved about, turning into divine chains of order, numerous and close together. They tore through the cosmos, slaughtering their way towards Feather Emperor’s true body.
Weng!
The void trembled. When the divine wings on Feather Emperor’s back moved, strong winds surged for millions and millions of li. Many branches immediately broke apart into laws and scattered.
Moreover, these wings were extremely massive. At this time, they increased in size even more, turning into two blade-like weapons, hacking forward. The great universe was cut apart.
Chi chi chi!
It had to be said that Feather Emperor was powerful, world shockingly so. He had near unmatched power. A pair of wings swept through heaven and earth, hacking apart quite a few primal chaos branches.
“Damned bird, hand over your life!”
The Little Pagoda roared out. Its ten-layered pagoda body shone, producing a massive magical projection. It dove over, suppressing forward, attacking Feather Emperor.
Dang!
Feather Emperor’s attacks were extremely domineering. The spear in his right hand resisted Willow Deity, and then his left hand rose up, clashing with this pagoda just like that. His palm and fingers shone, releasing dazzling brilliance.
With a peng noise, the Little Pagoda was smashed aside. Half immortal emperor power spread through this place, clashing intensely.
“I am going to fight you to the death!”
The Little Pagoda roared out. It merged with the bones of a half immortal emperor, becoming sturdy and powerful. It risked its life in fighting, turning into an archaic peak sized magical body, continuously smashing downwards.
At the same, it released the power of spatial natural laws, wishing to lock down Feather Emperor, moreover suppress him under its pagoda body.
“Just a trifling half immortal emperor ruined body, yet you still think you can do anything to me?” Feather Emperor said coldly, not feeling any fear. He condensed a magical imprint, continuously clashing with the little pagoda. Dazzling light erupted.
Dang!
Right now, Willow Deity was also facing Feather Emperor intensely. Willow branches appeared in endless streaks, interweaving. Great dao symbols interweaved, surging here.
“I am unmatched under heaven, no one able to face me throughout time. What can a ruined flame do? You all cannot defy the heavens! All of you should just bow down!” Feather Emperor was extremely arrogant.
His attacks became even more ferocious.
Peng!
Willow Deity flew out backwards. The half immortal emperor flames on the tree body flickered endlessly, it was struck until it released a wave of trembling, flickering with even greater brilliance.
“Kill!”
Feather Emperor held the war spear, stabbing forward. He wanted to stab through this tree body with a single thrust.
Chi!
Brilliant flowing lights could be seen. In this instant, Willow Deity erupted with endless divine might. It turned into a human form, its white clothes fluttering about, its style unmatched. The surface of its body was covered in fiery light.
It was hazy, its entire body covered in fiery light, surrounded by half immortal emperor flames, bathing in undying divine fire.
Hong!
Willow Deity attacked, fighting for its life. Its palm struck out, its voice surging, shaking the heavens above and earth below. Golden symbols were released endlessly from his palm, all of this the highest great dao profound mysteries.
With a dang sound, the spear point was blasted aside. Willow Deity rose up and pressed forward, fighting against Feather Emperor at close distance.
“All those who dare face me are already dead!” Feather Emperor said coldly.
He indeed had the power to have this type of confidence. His speed was without comparison, even light was unable to catch up to his speed. With a turn of his hand, the great universe would be ripped apart, lightning and thunder appearing endlessly, hacking towards Willow Deity.
Chi!
Willow Deity’s eyes shone, his hands moving about, smashing out with the Six Dao Reincarnations Heavenly Art. Six black holes appeared in the void, devouring all of the lightning.
Now, Willow Deity long recovered his past memories, proficient in all of Immortal Ancient’s methods, able to display them all at will. On top of this, even the emperor flame merged with him.
Right now, Willow Deity’s aura was extremely shocking.
That expert from the Age of Emperor Collapse, his dao skills and his methods were now all supporting Willow Deity, granting him endless power.
In the past, the soul of the emperor flame had left, returning to the other side of Realm Sea, becoming a flame. It carved down endless great dao, merging all methods of the world. Now, it returned precisely to defeat the emperors on this side.
Immediately afterwards, the Little Pagoda was summoned over. It floated above Willow Deity’s head. The emperor bones and emperor flame were originally one body anyway. Now that they complemented each other like this, the power became even greater.
Chi!
Willow Deity continuously formed magical imprints and then he struck out fiercely. His body turned into a streak of white light, tangling about Feather Emperor, continuously fighting a great battle.
When that spear point stabbed over, the pagoda above Willow Deity continuously released great dao symbols, blocking it.
“Just a ruined body, what qualifications do you have to face me? Let me see just how long you can drag on this battle for!” Feather Emperor was extremely cold. He knew that the other party was trying to help buy time for Huang.
Hong!
At this time, Willow Deity erupted with killing intent, doing everything he could to fight Feather Emperor.
Pu!
A streak of blood shot out from Feather Emperor’s shoulder. A willow branch suddenly appeared in the void, stabbing into his body.
“Heh, making me trickle blood, your end will be extremely miserable!” Feather Emperor’s expression was cold.
From start until now, Willow Deity didn’t say a single word. Right now, he attacked crazily, his white clothes fluttered about, as if untainted by dust, as if he transcended above all.
This battle was extremely intense. Willow Deity did everything he could, actually holding up Feather Emperor. Their battle was extremely intense, great dao symbols erupting between the two, covering the skies. At the same time, blood continuously surged. In the end, they slaughtered their way into the sea of primal chaos.
“Just die!”
Feather Emperor roared out. He was now truly angry, he couldn’t kill this pagoda and tree, this making him surge with killing intent.
With a honglong noise, endless immortal feathers appeared outside his body, dense and numerous, flying towards Willow Deity and the little pagoda.
These were half immortal emperor level feathers, created by his own body, possessing endless power. A single feather was enough to wipe out a realm.
Willow Deity avoided them, not facing their attacks head-on.
The sea of primal chaos became riddled with holes, blasted full of holes by the feather arrows. Then, some worlds were directly opened one after another.
One feather arrow, one world!
Weng!
These feathers began to appear again, and then they flew back in reverse, not stopping until they hit their objective.
Chi!
Emperor flame burned. Then, leaves fluttered in the void one after another, some green-colored, some golden, dazzling beyond comparison.
With a hong sound, endless willow leaves fluttered over, turning into fiery light, blasting towards those feather arrows.
In the end, they smashed together, erupting with heaven overflowing power.
When everything became quiet again, there were leaves all over the ground. Willow Deity backed up, blood flowing from the corners of his mouth.
Right now, he was still calm, still peaceful, not fearing death.
The emperor flame dimmed slightly, revealing Willow Deity’s true appearance, his white clothes carrying specks of blood. It was as if the most dazzling scarlet flower blossomed. His appearance was beautiful beyond comparison.
This was an expert with magnificent and unmatched style.
Willow Deity’s divine appearance was female, but he wore male clothes, also dressed like a man, exceptionally good looking.
It wasn’t a half immortal emperor yet, there was merely an emperor flame that supported it. When the two merged together, it could fight on equal level with Feather Emperor, enough to look down on the past and present.
Just like before, its elegant bearing was unmatched.
Regardless of whether it lost or if it won, it was hard for one to forget, possessing a type of world shocking temperament.
“Kill!”
Willow Deity released a light shout, his voice carrying a bit of magnetism. Even though this was the final great battle, his style was still exceptional, not carrying any malevolent auras.
Hong!
After fighting to this point, things were already close to an end.
He didn’t cultivate half immortal emperor level strength by himself after all, but rather merged with an emperor level flame.
Peng peng peng!
Willow Deity backed up. His emperor flame grew dim, starting to flicker more and more, blasted by Feather Emperor until it flickered intensely.
“My life has reached its end.”
Willow Deity said calmly, transmitting sound to Shi Hao in the distant limits of primal chaos, telling him about the true battle situation here so he could prepare for the worst.
“Willow Deity, retreat now!” Shi Hao roared out.
He frantically chased after those two emperors, wishing to end their lives, because once he let them flee and adjust their breathing, then all of his efforts would have been wasted.
However, right now, Willow Deity faced great danger.
“You have to take care of yourself!” This was Willow Deity’s final warning.
Shi Hao roared out, feeling like his heart and lungs were being ripped apart, as if his body was going to be torn open. He charged after those two experts, but still couldn’t immediately kill them.
Half immortal emperors were too hard to kill!
Shi Hao was in near despair. He ignited his true blood, going crazy to seriously injure the two emperors. Then, he abandoned this place, slaughtering his way towards Willow Deity.
He knew that Willow Deity was now in a critical situation. Feather Emperor was too powerful, Willow Deity most likely couldn’t avoid his attacks, going to completely die.
Shi Hao slaughtered his way over!
He saw that the Little Pagoda was blasted through by Feather Emperor, the pagoda body in pieces. Even though Feather Emperor’s palm was also dripping with blood, he still smashed through the little pagoda’s defenses.
Even if the little pagoda had half immortal emperor bones mixed in, it still couldn’t hold on any longer, instead ending up being smashed apart by Feather Emperor.
Willow Deity ignited his true body, activating the last of the emperor flame to try and drag down his opponent with him.
“Willow Deity, stop!” Shi Hao screamed out.
“I’ve done everything I could.” Willow Deity said. Its life reached its end, but even if it was at its final moments, it was still calm.
Then, its entire figure carried fair light, throwing itself at Feather Emperor.
With a hong noise, fiery light covered Feather Emperor, burning there, the sea of primal chaos erupting.
Roar!
Feather Emperor roared out, greatly shaken.
This wasn’t something he wanted to face. The emperor flame went all out, after merging with Willow Deity, it burned fiercely, making Feather Emperor feel endless alarm.
Normally, he wouldn’t be willing to touch emperor flames, fearful of making contact with them.
Emperor flames had all types of abnormalities. They contained the imprints of a half immortal emperor. Now that it ended up in this type of state, if it entered the body of another emperor, it might just wreak havoc.
Now, Feather Emperor did everything it could to resist.
“Kill!”
Shi Hao crazily slaughtered his way towards Feather Emperor.
Honglong!
Then, at this time, the emperor flame erupted. It wrapped around Feather Emperor, the raging flames burning even primal chaos. Everything was in chaos.
Roar!
Feather Emperor roared out in anger. His entire body was scorched black, in tatters, his source damaged by the emperor flame.
Pu!
However, at this time, that flame also exploded. Willow Deity’s figure became blurry as well, its willow leaves withering in the sky, turning to ashes.
It returned to its original form, but the tree body quickly snapped, starting to burn.
Shi Hao went crazy, continuously slaughtering his way over, all of the attacks landing on Feather Emperor. Then, he released endless amounts of life essence energy, sacrificing blood essence to nourish the tree that was heading towards destruction.
Most of the tree turned into ashes, vanishing like smoke into thin air just like that.
In the end, there was only a tree stump left, an expanse of scorched black, it dried up and withered there.
“Willow Deity!”
Shi Hao screamed out in agony. He did everything he could, yet he could only preserve Willow Deity’s roots and a bit of the scorched black trunk.
