Chapter 2185: Mixed Feelings of Nuwa
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The Heavenly Heaven God groaned softly as he slowly retracted his foot.
Half of his foot had been obliterated, and there were still the remnants of undying flames and a profound darkness. It was clear that he had suffered heavy wounds.
Meanwhile, the giant Vermilion Bird that had been formed by An Lin and Xu Xiaolan had already been kicked into oblivion.
Both of them had suffered wounds of varying degrees. Between them, Xu Xiaolan had suffered the heavier wounds, with numerous gashes caused by blades of space evident on her jade dress. Her entire body was drenched in blood. Moreover, forming the Vermilion Bird to flee from the Supreme Heavenly Gods had already consumed exorbitant amounts of her blood essence. At this moment, she was completely spent as she lay in the arms of An Lin.
An Lin carried Xu Xiaolan with one arm while releasing a boundless Heavenly Darkness Power with his other. He continued to resist the God Destroying Divine Sea that was still trying to smash down on them.
The undying vines of the Heavenly Life Goddess had been blasted into smithereens, yet the formidable God Destroying Divine Sea of the Heavenly Sea God still remained intact!
An Lin gritted his teeth as he continued to resist this attack. However, his entire body was already starting to tremble uncontrollably. It was clear that he had already reached his limits!
What should I do… What can I do?
Xu Xiaolan is severely wounded, while I’m already at my limits… How can we break free from the Supreme Heavenly Gods?
Even if Xu Xiaolan were still able to battle, it would still be incredibly difficult for them to break free from the attacks of the Supreme Heavenly Gods. After all, the strength of the Supreme Heavenly Gods wasn’t merely in the form of their raw power. Their strength was also reflected in the fact that they possessed boundless energy as well as an undying ability and a freakish recovery ability.
The obliterated foot of the Heavenly Heaven God was already healing at a rate that was visible to the naked eye.
Meanwhile, the Heavenly Light Goddess and Heavenly Life Goddess were already preparing a new wave of attacks.
The Heavenly Sea God’s God Destroying Divine Sea possessed an overwhelming might as it continued to suppress An Lin…
An Lin exerted his full power to resist it, yet how long could he maintain this resistance for?
If he couldn’t find a way to defeat this or escape, it was without a doubt that both he and Xu Xiaolan would be killed here.
What could he do?
Did he have to sacrifice the final one-fifth of his life?
An Lin gazed down at the woman in his arms. Xu Xiaolan also looked up to meet his gaze.
As if realizing something, Xu Xiaolan shook her head with great difficulty and said, “No… don’t…” She gripped onto An Lin’s wrists and said, “There’s definitely another way…”
“Yeh, there’s definitely another way…” An Lin replied with a smile.
He naturally wasn’t willing to leave Xiaolan forever. There was always a sliver of hope remaining.
An Lin activated his Divine Simulation Technique again
This time, he discovered something delightful.
There was another divine being nearby!
An Lin’s eyes were as black as ink as he gazed at someplace in the distance. After a while, he finally found the figure amid a stretch of shadows. This was a slender woman in a black robe.
The woman seemingly sensed An Lin’s gaze.
She looked up, revealing her delicate and gentle features. However, there was an extremely complicated expression in her eyes as she looked at him.
An Lin instantly realized who this was, and he frantically transmitted his voice, saying, “Nuwa, you’ve come at just the right time! Have you come to save us?”
Nuwa’s expression became even more complicated upon hearing this. She shook her head and replied, “I’ve come to save Xu Xiaolan. As for you, I’m sorry, but I can’t save you.”
An Lin faltered upon hearing this reply.
However, he quickly understood something, and a bitter smile stretched across his face. “You know everything?”
Nuwa nodded and replied, “Yes, I know everything.”
An Lin was the Heavenly Darkness God, and mending the heavens required the dao power of none other than the Heavenly Darkness God. In other words, it needed the Heavenly Darkness God to sacrifice his life. Right now, this task only required the final one-fifth of his dao power. Once it was obtained, the Heaven Mending Sect could complete the most critical step of mending the heavens. Nuwa was well aware of all this.
Meanwhile, An Lin could also understand Nuwa’s decision. Nuwa had always been someone who was willing to sacrifice the individual for the group. This trait could be seen from her willingness to courageously step forward and resist the heavens even though she was clearly a paramount goddess of the Demon Tribe.
She was willing to sacrifice members of her own Demon Tribe, so she was naturally willing to sacrifice An Lin as well.
In reality, it was already extremely generous of Nuwa to not raise her weapon and hunt him down alongside the other Supreme Heavenly Gods.
In fact, Nuwa had indeed considered this option before.
Truth be told, Nuwa had actually come here to ponder over how to kill An Lin.
However, what she had witnessed was a stunning and magnificent display. She could say without any exaggeration that the intensity and level of this battle ranked within the top three out of all the battles she had experienced in her extensive lifetime.
She witnessed the formidable power of the Supreme Heavenly Gods, and she also witnessed the unwavering resilience of An Lin.
When seeing An Lin backed into a corner and when seeing him consider sacrificing his life, she should have initially experienced delight and excitement. After all, her plan to mend the heavens could successfully progress without her needing to participate in any battles.
However, she couldn’t bring herself to feel happy.
An Lin was already so formidable, so why did he still place himself in such great danger? Why did he allow himself to be backed into a corner?
For what reason was he doing this?
He was doing this for the sake of the entire continent!
He was doing this for the sake of the billions of beings in the world!
Such a mighty hero was going to perish for the sake of the world, so how could Nuwa bring herself to feel happy? Her feelings were extremely mixed at this moment… Extremely mixed!
She had clearly made up her mind already, yet upon witnessing this sight, she couldn’t help but waver. How many tens of thousands of years had passed since she had last experienced such conflicting feelings?
“Xiaolan, I’ll help you escape!”
There was a determined expression in An Lin’s eyes as he held Xu Xiaolan in his arms.
“M-hm! I believe in you!” Xu Xiaolan was already severely wounded and exhausted, yet the clear and radiant sparkle in her eyes hadn’t been extinguished.
An Lin took a deep breath as countless dark divine patterns materialized behind him. At the same time, a profound darkness started to emanate from his feet, and it was as if a pitch-black halo were spreading into the surroundings.
This darkness spread and covered an extremely great distance. In fact, its area even rivaled that of the God Destroying Divine Sea. This caused the God Destroying Divine Sea to falter for a moment.
Regardless of whether it was the power from the sea or whether it was the anguished wails and attacks from the deceased divine beings within this sea, everything in the God Destroying Divine Sea faltered at this moment. What replaced it was an external silence and darkness. Just this Dao Realm alone was powerful enough to affect the attack of the Heavenly Sea God!
An Lin unleashed a high-level God of War Mystic Technique at this moment.
Dark Immortal Transformation!
An Lin moved, and he was like a dark shadow that no power could obstruct. Not even the sea above him could stop his advance.
After perfecting his Divine Dao of Darkness, the enhancement that the Dark Immortal Transformation could bring was already extremely minimal and insignificant. At this moment, however, any small increase in power was of critical and decisive importance.
An Lin yearned to squeeze every iota of power from his body. He yearned to become invincible for this short and temporary instant!
His speed was insane, so quick that even the Heavenly Life Goddess’ vines, the Heavenly Light Goddess’ light, and the Heavenly Sea God’s sea couldn’t catch up to him!
“Hurry, stop him!” the Heavenly Heaven God shouted as he unleashed another large-scale attack. With a simple grabbing motion, the space within a radius of several thousand kilometers before An Lin became tens of thousands of times more viscous and coagulated.
No one—not even God of Creation Stage divine beings—could ignore the effects of this large-scale suppression technique. Wherever the sky existed was wherever the Heavenly Heaven God could unleash his powers!
However, just as the Heavenly Heaven God was brimming with confidence…
The dark shadow surprisingly ignored the space before it.. In the instant that the Heavenly Heaven God unleashed this technique, the dark shadow unexpectedly vanished with Xu Xiaolan. It then reformed into a shadow and continued to flee thousands of kilometers away in some other expanse of darkness!
