Chapter 1039: Fuse
The palace continued to collapse and fall from the sky.
Ou Yangming frowned slightly and said in a low voice, “If I don’t want to die, no one can kill me.”
He seemed to be muttering to himself. Although his voice was low, it was filled with an indescribable power. The power was like a 3-kilometers-tall mountain that towered.
“You’re really confident. I hope you have the strength to match it.” Li Xin stepped on the green waves and laughed coldly. His laughter was filled with ridicule.
The eyes of Multi-armed King Kong below the sky were dull. Previously, it had been using its mental power to observe the battlefield. With just one attack, the palace that was close to 3 kilometers was shattered. This kind of strength had surpassed that of a top-grade Venerable One and was getting close to that step.
At this moment, even if the king kong had great confidence in Ou Yangming, it could not help but have a worried expression as it said, “This time around, Master’s going to have a bitter fight.”
Lil’ Red nodded and replied, “Yes, the Qi momentum from that body is terrifying. It’s like a dragon, a tiger, or a mountain.” There was one more thing that it did not say, which was that the Qi momentum made it feel very disgusted.
This was natural. The Dragons and Phoenixes had been fighting for tens of thousands of years, after all, and their hatred for each other was deeply hidden in their bloodlines. How could it be described in just one sentence?
Big Yellow scratched its ears, and a rarely seen solemn expression appeared on its face. It took a breath of spiritual Qi and asked, “Then what should we do?”
“Just pray. We can’t interfere in a battle of this level.” After the king kong finished, it fell silent.
“Fight!” Ou Yangming let out a long roar and stepped on the waves. He held the Blood Spear Dragon Slayer tightly and ran. The position of every step he took was difficult to predict. He charged toward Li Xin.
“Ridiculous.” Li Xin’s eyes flashed, and he snorted coldly.
The last time he was outside the altar, he had suffered a great loss in close combat. This time, why would he use his weakness to fight against someone else’s strength?
With that, the spiritual Qi in his Dantian Lake boiled as the strange pattern on his body lit up once again. It was cold like an Asura that had climbed out of hell. He raised his right hand and pressed down on the milky way below.
In an instant, a shocking scene appeared in front of everyone.
The milky way suspended in the sky seemed to be cut off by an indescribably majestic power. A black vortex appeared and spread out continuously. Looking down from the sky, one could actually see the beautiful mountains and rivers below through the milky way. It was as if the water of the milky way had been blocked by an invisible wall of Qi. The vortex had become a critical point, and the upstream and downstream had been cut off. The force of this push could be seen clearly.
It would be fine if that was all, but Li Xin raised his hand and pointed.
As a result, the cut-off milky way pounced on Ou Yangming. There was an indescribable sharpness hidden within.
Looking from afar, Li Xin was riding the wind under his feet, carrying the milky way on his back, and above the milky way was the sky.
Ou Yangming sucked in a breath of cold air. His eyes shone with fighting spirit. Not only did he not retreat, but he also faced Li Xin head-on.
He activated the Heavenly Phoenix Fire, and every cell in his body burned.
‘I’m not going to yield!’
Triggered by his will, the Heavenly Phoenix Fire turned into a vortex made of flames. The air around it was distorted, and sizzling sounds were heard.
This fire vortex was 3-kilometers-long and stood under the sky.
Big Yellow was 3 kilometers away from the battlefield. Its eyes were dull and filled with fear.
From where it stood, a majestic fire vortex collided with the vast and boundless milky way.
The Heavenly Phoenix Fire and the water of the milky way collided.
When this happened, the power of the fiery light surged, and the ice-cold water became warm and gentle. They merged and formed an unspeakable pattern.
The sizzling sound reached Big Yellow’s ears. Then, the sky was filled with mists as if it was chaotic again after the blue sky was destroyed.
“Open!” Li Xin shouted coldly.
A red light flashed in his eyes. He extended his left hand forward and tore outward. A pair of blood-red hands condensed out of thin air, and the lines on every finger were very clear.
With a shocking murderous aura, there seemed to be fresh blood surging on his thumb. It directly tore the mists apart from the middle and smacked toward Ou Yangming’s head. This seemingly ordinary move was one of Li Xin’s strongest moves.
Ou Yangming’s gaze focused. This attack gave him a strange feeling. It did not seem strong, but it gave him a strong sense of danger.
He did not know where the danger came from, so he could only treat it seriously.
The young fellow pulled back his stance. He stopped without a sound, then he used immobility to deal with the myriad of changes.
Right at this moment, a change occurred. The surging milky way suddenly shrank and collapsed toward the middle. In the blink of an eye, the boundless water turned into a faint light dot and directly transcended space.
It was stained with a trace of the power of laws and pierced a thumb-sized hole in the Heavenly Phoenix Fire.
Would the attack that Li Xin had spent so much effort on be so simple?
No, of course not.
The huge hand that had been condensed out of thin air shattered, and the red light on the thumb flickered for a moment.
It turned into thousands of red threads, which seemed endless like dust and stars.
They intertwined and weaved into a net, which directly wrapped around Ou Yangming. Eventually, they turned into a picture of an evil dragon, which was engraved on his body. Just a glance at this color was enough to make one’s hair stand on end as if it would cause misfortune.
As for Ou Yangming’s body, it didn’t move at all and just stood still in mid-air.
His heart thumped as he thought, ‘This is bad.’ He finally understood where the uneasiness that he felt came from. It turned out to be the red threads that had turned into a Sealing Formation Map.
He hurriedly mobilized the Heavenly Phoenix Fire and Devouring Power, but the feeling in his mind seemed to have been cut off.
Li Xin’s face revealed a pleasantly surprised expression. The palm strike from before seemed calm, but it had consumed 60% of the spiritual Qi in his Dantian Lake. Fortunately, it had achieved a satisfactory result. His eyes seemed to contain a red world. He clenched the Relic Saber tightly and poured his spiritual power into it. The Dragons’ relic turned into a blood dragon and struck toward Ou Yangming’s heart with the power of Heavenly Thunderbolts. Once this attack was carried out, the young fellow would die for sure.
This was because the Dragons’ relic carried the power of laws.
This was because it was Li Xin’s full-strength attack.
‘Move… Quickly move…’ Ou Yangming roared in his heart, but his body did not react at all.
“333 meters, 33 meters…” Li Xin was getting closer and closer.
Ou Yangming bit the tip of his tongue. In this life-or-death situation, the blood in his body was boiling, and blood and sweat were oozing out of every pore. In an instant, the white clothes on his body had been painted red by blood. He mobilized his mental power and sealed the seal, but the seal was unbreakable. It was as firm as a rock and immovable as a mountain.
“3 inches, 2 inches, 1 inch…” Ou Yangming felt a chill in his heart. He could even see Li Xin’s sinister smile.
‘I can’t die. For the people who love me, and for the people I love, how can I die?’ He roared in his heart. His face was ferocious as he began to burn his lifespan. 1 year, 2 years, 10 years… They were being rapidly burned.
His ruthless look shocked even Li Xin.
When up to 50 years of Ou Yangming’s lifespan was burned, the Heavenly Phoenix Fire and the Devouring Power merged.
One white and one black symbolized Yin and Yang, and they turned into a rotating Yin-Yang Fish. The light was gentle as if it could contain all things, and it was entrenched in his spiritual world.
As for the sealing formation on his body, it was shattered.
Ou Yangming raised his right hand and slapped outward, sending the blood dragon, which was transformed from the Dragons’ relic, flying. This was done at lightning speed.
That said, it allowed the others to see the details clearly. This contradictory yet unified feeling could make one feel dizzy.
Li Xin’s mind trembled, and he mumbled in fear, “How… How’s this possible?”
One of Ou Yangming’s eyes was white, while the other was black.
He mobilized the power of the merging of the Dragons and the Phoenixes and lightly pointed out with his finger.
The fusion this time was different from the battle on the altar. This time, it was completely compatible.
Previously, it was only used for coordination.
The finger directly transcended space and was reflected between Li Xin’s eyebrows. No matter how he struggled, he could not dodge it.
This was because this finger carried the power of the great path, and it was the most mysterious path of Yin and Yang.
In Li Xin’s point of view, the surrounding spiritual Qi was constantly squeezing toward him. The space seemed to have turned into a vicious quagmire, causing him to sink deep into it. Even his consciousness was frozen, and only the finger remained in his sight. The instant it landed between his eyebrows, he finally regained consciousness and let out a shrill scream. Li Xin watched as his body lost control and starting from his feet, his body crumbled inch by inch. He was not afraid of death, but he was not willing to die like this. As long as he could defeat Ou Yangming and absorb the power of the world, he would be the god of the Spiritual Realm.
Indeed, no one in the Spiritual Realm could defeat him. Even Master Kurong, who was the greatest powerhouse of Danzhou, would not be able to withstand a single move from him.
Unfortunately, he was defeated. He was utterly defeated.
As Li Xin lost control of the Dragons’ relic, it fell from the sky. Drawn by the Bloodline Power, it fell into the hands of Big Yellow.
Ou Yangming flashed and walked down from the sky.
With a puff, he spat out a large mouthful of blood essence. He looked dispirited. The powers of the Dragons and the Phoenixes in his spiritual world separated again.
“Master (Lil’ Ming), are you alright?” The 4 beasts asked at the same time.
Ou Yangming nodded. “I’m fine. My internal organs are just a little dislocated.” He did not expect that Li Xin would have such a weird method. He sighed and thought, ‘One who could make a name for himself as a Venerable One is indeed not simple.’
Looking in the direction of the Big Ruins, he muttered, “I wonder if He Jian has retrieved the swords from his sword case.”
After an unknown time, he retracted his gaze and looked at Big Yellow. He smiled and said, “Your opportunity has come. Refine the Dragons’ relic and absorb the power of this world. You might even become a Venerable One?”
Big Yellow licked its lips and asked eagerly, “Really?”
“Really,” Ou Yangming replied.
After hearing that, Big Yellow spat out a mouthful of blood on the Dragons’ relic and began to refine it without any hesitation.
It was not that Ou Yangming was being biased but because among the 3 beasts, only Big Yellow had the Dragons’ bloodline. Even if the relic was given to the goshawk and the king kong, they would not be able to refine it.
In an instant, Big Yellow guarded its soul with its heart and meditated. A wave of peaceful ripples spread out.
The goshawk grinned and said, “Master, I’ve already become a top-grade spirit beast. Uhm… Hehe.”
It did not finish its sentence, but Ou Yangming knew what it was referring to. The Earthly Formation Boards and the Thunderbolt-resistant Suit.
He waved his wrist and responded, “Don’t worry.”
Afterward, he began to set up the formation.
The goshawk’s eyes were burning, and it wondered, ‘If I don’t become a Venerable One, I’ll still be insignificant. I must pass the Heavenly Disaster.’
