Chapter 2986 - Your Time Is Over
"How much did he leave behind for you?!" Yi Daiyan asked, sounding a little distraught.
"What?!" Tianming froze. Yi Daiyan had always been mysterious and cold; he had never seen her in such a state.
"Liar! What do you think I am? You keep toying with me like this!" she hatefully snapped. Her rage continued growing until it caused her to go wild. Truth be told, Tianming hadn’t felt any true killing intent coming from her until now, when it fully showed itself.
"I want you to come out! I want to hear your explanation! For that, I'll use every underhanded trick! You forced my hand!" she shrieked to the sky, colorful tears flowing from her eyes. She looked like a grieving beauty, her absolute solitude gaining pity from others, but not from Tianming.
"Why’s she freaking out? Is she starting to act mad because she knows she's about to die? Yin Chen, go!" Tianming was gathering omnisentient power and didn't want to get entangled with her at all. He wanted to quickly settle things and put it behind him.
"Die now!" Yin Chen and Tianming turned into two beams of light that charged toward Yi Daiyan. The grand lexicon wonder started applying pressure as well.
The monstrous Yin Chen was incredibly fast despite its mass. It had even spent a few days studying the way of the blade. In an instant, it shot right in front of Yi Daiyan and used its paired blades to unleash a flurry of precise and lethal attacks!
Yi Daiyan's sword ki surged as she used the black-and-gold sword flash to block Yin Chen's attacks. Though she tried to break away, Yin Chen unexpectedly transformed from its cockroach form into a silver spider! Webs shot out from all directions toward Yi Daiyan. They were so dense that they were comparable to fortuna-class cosmic artifacts in toughness.
After a lot of slashing around, Yi Daiyan managed to carve out a way to escape, only for Tianming to come charging toward her with his sword split in two. He used From Seas to Fields and Tristrike Worldshatter, both signature moves of the Swordgod Lin Clan. It was rather significant to use those particular moves against Yi Daiyan.
One of the strikes shifted the flow of time, turning the primordial sea into fields of mulberry and piercing through history to reach Yi Daiyan! The other strike came smashing through space and damaging her cosmic charts and her body.
Yin Chen had to be powerful to be able to push Yi Daiyan to that extent. The five million enemy astral gods couldn't help but cry out in shock at the sight.
Yin Chen once more changed forms, morphing into a galactic swordbug that came falling from the sky. Its mass was so enormous that the air itself exploded, twisting space around it!
Yi Daiyan used her totem-enforced Infinitum Stele to counter it, causing a few of her Decadazzle Crystalights to break. The Infinitum Stele itself seemed shaken and was almost sent flying! The stars that made up Yi Daiyan's hands collapsed from the blowback. Such was the power of a Primordial Chaos Beast with 9.99 million stars.
She fell from the sky and created a crater a million meters deep. Everyone looked at Tianming with much fervor. Infinitum Duels had always been sacred and inviolable; nobody dared to profane the sacred ceremony. Even the astral gods on Yi Daiyan's side were completely taken aback.
"How can he possibly be this powerful?"
"Heavens! He's so young!"
"What kind of monster is that insect?!"
Only top elites who had incredibly powerful mental stability could even comment about the fight. The other astral gods had completely frozen and were only able to unintelligibly groan as their throats struggled to make sounds that barely resembled human speech. Many of them felt their knees going soft.
"Ab... absolute domination!"
Many of them found it hard to even breathe. All they could do was twitch like they had been electrocuted. They watched as Tianming and Yin Chen went into the crater and pushed Yi Daiyan back into the sky. With the undying Yin Chen at his side, Tianming had managed to turn the tables. Yi Daiyan's galactic body continued crumbling as the attacks intensified, causing her energy to leak away. If this went on, she would definitely die by Tianming's hand.
"Aaaah! Aaaah!" Yushan Taifeng and the rest witnessed the battle, unable to believe their eyes. Would she really get replaced while she was in her prime, just like Shenxi Xingtian had been? Even Shenxi Xingtian survived his duel with Yi Daiyan, but this duel was one that would only end in the death of one of the duelists! The scales had tipped too quickly without any warning.
Yushan Taifeng and a few others almost vomited blood in panic. They even forgot to breathe as the world around them fell completely silent. Nothing but Tianming's unrivaled might filled their minds; his magnificence and Grand-Orient Sword had been burned into their minds! It would be their eternal nightmare.
"Nononono...." Yushan Taifeng was unconsciously muttering in denial. He watched as Yi Daiyan was completely bound by Yin Chen's webs, unable to move an inch. The goddess from before was completely nowhere to be seen. All the onlookers could see was the spikes on Yin Chen's body pierce into her galactic body, followed by her being sealed entirely by the Prime Starchain and the grand lexicon wonder.
Tianming came charging toward Yi Daiyan, crossing tens of thousands of meters in an instant as he gathered power into the Grand-Orient Sword. "Your time is over! It's my turn now!"
Tianming had waited too long to deal with the hegemons in the Infinitum Mundus. He’d wanted to be patient, but circumstances had forced his hand. The blinding radiance of the Grand-Orient Sword and the divine might of the flameyellow divinity imperatores once more graced the battlefield with their pressure. The whole world shone with their imperial resplendence.
Countless people had been cheering their 'Emperor Tianming' on nonstop, shaking the Sky Palace Formation each time. When they finally saw Yi Daiyan about to be finished off, they went even wilder. "Kill! Kill her dead!"
Since the moment of her betrayal, everyone had completely lost any faith in her. Today was just another disappointment thrown upon a pile of others. The denizens of the Sun no longer held any hope for her and wished for nothing but her extermination!
Bathed in all that light, the sealed white-haired woman struggled to look up and glare at Tianming. "How impressive! As expected of his son! No wonder he wanted to use you to push me away.... It's no wonder...."
Before the moment of her death, she smiled all of a sudden. One could hardly imagine how such a cold person could smile so mysteriously. "Li Muyang.... What in the world are you betting on? Am I someone you look down upon so much?"
