Chapter 380: The Great Battle
Chapter 380: The Great Battle
The ocean roared with surging waves, suddenly stirring up a towering tsunami.
In an instant, the giant wave exploded, transforming into a downpour of raindrops that filled the sky.
High above in the firmament, the Universal Essence Energy gathered, resembling a colossal lake.
Within the dark lake, a crimson glow flashed, interspersed with speckles of silver light, tearing open a rift in the enormous lake...
Countless dark Essence Energy evaporated, forming a terrifying tide of Universal Essence Energy...
For ordinary Immortal Cultivators, the Soul Transformation battle was no different from a natural disaster.
...
"It's indeed the Spirit Void Sword Scripture!"
Meng Old Devil, clad in a black robe with wide sleeves, was an enemy of the Primordial Soul Sword Sect for countless years, so he was naturally very familiar with the Essence Refinement Lineage of the Sword Sect.
In battles between Transcendent Soul Cultivators, the initial contest was always about manipulating Universal Essence Energy.
Meng Old Devil initially thought he could easily defeat his opponent.
But he never expected that Fang Xing's comprehension of the Spatial Law was actually quite impressive. Although Meng Old Devil, relying on his profound cultivation and higher cultivation realm, could gain a certain advantage, he couldn't achieve an overwhelming victory.
This was an unbelievable situation for a late-stage Soul Transformation Cultivator.
After all, late-stage Soul Transformation Cultivators were revered as 'Heavenly Venerables' because they possessed the ability to defeat early-stage Soul Transformation Cultivators! However, this newly promoted Dark Kui Island Master was clearly different.
Moreover, there was also a Fifth Stage Body Cultivator restraining him...
With this thought, Meng Old Devil pinched a seal with one hand and took out a strange dark black jade pendant from his sleeve.
On the jade pendant, countless tiny runes glowed like fireflies, forming the shape of a peculiar three-headed strange bird.
"Go!"
Meng Old Devil infused his cultivation power into the jade pendant, and it flashed with light, transforming into a several dozen zhang long dark strange bird. Its feathers were sharp as swords, and from its three strange heads, it spewed out black lightning, poisonous water, and green flames...
The three-colored radiance resembled a tidal wave, instantly engulfing Fang Xing's true self on the other side.
But in the next instant, a figure burst out of the wave, his aura as fierce as a dragon and a furnace. He directly fended off the black lightning, poisonous water, and green flames...
His physical strength was the strongest Meng Old Devil had ever seen.
Only those Ancient Demons who excelled in physical power could compare.
Caw!
The three-headed strange bird entangled with Fang Xing, its feathers falling like flying swords, piercing Fang Xing's true self and exploding with deafening noises.
Crack! Crack!
One by one, the dark feathers broke, and then... Fang Xing slightly extended his palm, and a golden hand suddenly appeared in the firmament.
It shone brilliantly, resembling pure gold, and wielded the power of the Five Elements. It descended with a boom, trapping the three-headed strange bird tightly—it was the Five-Finger Mountain!
Fang Xing's five fingers swiftly closed together, and the terrifying giant palm instantly clamped shut.
The three-headed strange bird within let out a mournful cry, layer after layer of black light collapsed, revealing the central dark black jade pendant, which Fang Xing casually suppressed and put away.
"Hmm?"
Meng Old Devil was naturally startled by this sight: "A Fifth Stage Middle Grade, or even Fifth Stage Superior Body Cultivator?"
He was filled with astonishment.
After all, in the Heavenly Primordial World, Body Cultivators had never been the mainstream.
The appearance of a Fifth Stage Inferior Body Cultivator, comparable to an early-stage Soul Transformation Cultivator, had already surprised him.
But judging from Fang Xing's previous effortless moves, he was far more than a simple Fifth Stage Inferior Body Cultivator.
"An Upper Plane inheritance? Or did he obtain the legacy of some other great Divine Ability Cultivator when he descended to this world?"
Meng Old Devil quickly speculated about Fang Xing's identity but didn't care much.
What Transcendent Soul Cultivator didn't have some kind of fortuitous encounter?
"So what?"
Fang Xing stepped on the void, and even the void seemed to distort, revealing terrifying ripples.
Then, in the blink of an eye, he appeared above Meng Old Devil's head and pressed down with a palm.
The Great Sun Buddha Palm's Buddha Head Cleansing! At the same time, his Martial Dao Will surged forth, formless and intangible, instantly entering Meng Old Devil's Sea of Consciousness.
This old devil was an incredible opponent in battles, with vast experience. He had already cultivated divine perception defense secret techniques and even possessed a Fifth Stage Divine Soul defensive treasure!
But in the three layers of the soul, a cultivator's divine perception could only reach the outermost layer of soul power.
It was difficult to block attacks targeting the middle layer.
Therefore, when Fang Xing's Martial Dao Will emerged, even though Meng Old Devil was a late-stage Soul Transformation Demon Cultivator, he couldn't help but fall into a momentary daze.
Then...
A move of the Buddha Palm descended from the sky, landing on Meng Old Devil's head.
Whoosh!
Countless bronze lamps appeared, and among them, there were cries of Primordial Spirit bodies.
It was Meng Old Devil's life-bound treasure, automatically awakening to protect its master!
Boom!
A blazing sun erupted on the sea's surface, instantly drying up the infinite seawater and revealing a dry sea bed.
Even on the sea bed, a hemispherical giant pit appeared! But when Fang Xing saw this, his brows furrowed.
Whoosh!
His Cultivation Avatar casually swung his sword, slicing through the water and dust, revealing Meng Old Devil in the center of the pit.
His current state was not right.
Not only was his body covered in dark purple scales, but even his eyes emitted demon light, and a small horn grew on his head.
However, at this moment, that small horn had broken off.
"This is... Demonic Transformation?"
Fang Xing nodded: "The Ancient Demon's physical strength is indeed formidable... If you were just an ordinary Soul Transformation Cultivator, or even a Fifth Stage Body Cultivator, you would have died under that palm.
"After striking down with his palm, he already felt something amiss.
Although he had shattered Meng Old Devil's defensive treasure, the remaining palm force landed on Meng Old Devil's head, but it was blocked by a layer of tough scales and demon horns.
'It seems you've already succumbed to demonic transformation... Could it be that the Divine Transformation Venerable of the Limitless Hall discovered your secret and was then secretly harmed by you?'
Fang Xing understood many things in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, he was also clear about his own strength.
'After all, my Cultivation Avatar has just broken through to Divine Transformation, and to face a Divine Transformation Heavenly Monarch like this, I must personally take action with my True Self.'
'Even if my True Self breaks through to Martial Deity, with its astonishing combat power, and could easily fight against mid-stage Divine Transformation cultivators... But against a late-stage Divine Transformation cultivator, I can only take advantage of my superiority in willpower to catch them off guard... Normally, a typical Divine Transformation Heavenly Monarch wouldn't be able to withstand my three strikes, I didn't expect this Meng Old Devil to still have a hidden trump card!'
The so-called 'Demonic Transformation' naturally refers to a Demon Dao cultivator actively transforming into an Ancient Demon.
It sounds simple, but it's extremely difficult in practice. Not only does it require the cultivator to practice top-notch Demon Dao techniques, but they must also obtain a large amount of 'True Demon Blood' from Ancient Demons to truly cleanse and replace their blood, transforming their life essence.
I
But if they could transform and sway the Divine Transformation Heavenly Monarch of the Limitless Hall, the gains would be considerable.
After his demonic transformation, Meng Old Devil's not only profound in his cultivation but also has an incredibly formidable physique, reaching at least the middle of the Fifth Stage, or even higher! Of course, the greatest benefit is the extension of his lifespan, allowing him to live for at least three thousand years!
Even the True Self of Fang Xing has to be cautious when dealing with him now.
'Knowing this, what can you do? Even if my ancestors blame me... After I break through to Nourishing Void, I will only ascend to the Demon World and won't go to the Spirit World anymore.'
Meng Old Devil clenched his hands, and his body suddenly transformed!
Not only did his height increase to nearly three meters with a loud crack from his joints, but the scales on his body and the fangs in his mouth also became sharper.
'Blackening increases strength tenfold, but purification weakens it by three-tenths...'
Fang Xing's True Self mocked in his heart, and his figure flashed, appearing before Meng Old Devil.
Boom!
Their fists and feet clashed, allowing their physical strength to be fully unleashed.
After a round of entanglement, Fang Xing was clear in his heart that his True Self would have to go through a tough battle to defeat Meng Old Devil.
Rather than that...
'Good nephew, hold him off for a while, I'll be right back.'
Fang Xing's True Self shouted, and a silver talisman appeared in his hand, causing his entire person to vanish instantly.
'Hmm? What a clever Escape Talisman, could it be a Fifth Stage or even Sixth Stage item?'
Meng Old Devil, in his demon form, was about to tear Fang Xing's True Self apart, but he didn't expect the True Self to escape so quickly.
He turned around and looked at Fang Xing's Cultivation Avatar, his eyes seemingly filled with disdain.
Then, he casually waved his hand.
Boom!
A terrifying demonic aura appeared, transforming into a pitch-black lion, which spat out a ball of light from its huge mouth.
Within the ball of light, countless runes swam around like tadpoles.
'Your senior is truly shameless. Unable to defeat me, he just ran away.'
He looked at Fang Xing's Cultivation Avatar, his words carrying a hint of commanding power: 'Now, only you, a cultivator at the early stage of Divine Transformation, remain. Do you still think you can escape from my hands?'
Roar!
As soon as he finished speaking, the huge ball of light rushed towards Fang Xing!
Fang Xing smiled slightly.
Currently, he was on Blue Star, and it would take a little more time to control the Black Death Number.
Fortunately, as the principal of Blue University, building a few secret underground air-raid shelters was not a problem, and he had made the necessary preparations before today's battle.
Now, it was the Cultivation Avatar's turn to buy some time.
Clang!
The sword rang out.
The Rusty Iron Sword appeared in his hand, and Fang Xing, fusing with the universe, channeled the universal essence energy, transforming it into a sword! The universe suddenly turned white! An extremely fine sword light gently glided past the ball of light and the pitch-black lion.
The next moment.
Whether it was the ball of light or the pitch-black lion, they all crumbled and disintegrated, reverting to their most fundamental form of universal essence energy.
The sword light's momentum didn't diminish as it flew towards Meng Old Devil.
'One Sword Shatters Ten Thousand Dharmas?'
Meng Old Devil coldly snorted, clenching his hands in a seal, and reciting complex and twisted Ancient Demon language.
In front of him, a pitch-black shield appeared, into which he frantically injected his late-stage Divine Transformation cultivation power.
The One Sword Shatters Ten Thousand Dharmas of the Essence Spirit Sword Sage was not so easy to break.
However, the Limitless Hall and the Primordial Soul Sword Sect had been enemies for many years and had accumulated rich experience.
Although One Sword Shatters Ten Thousand Dharmas was sharp, it could also be countered by overwhelming force.
With his profound late-stage Divine Transformation cultivation power, he could easily wear down Fang Xing.
Moreover, this ordinary-looking 'Magnetic Shield' actually concealed a 'Two-Instrument Magnetic Divine Light' within, which was enough to give those sword cultivators a hard time.
Whoosh!
Just as the sword light was about to land on the Magnetic Shield, a trace of a smile appeared on Fang Xing's lips.
A flash of silver light, and the Rusty Iron Sword directly penetrated the Great Void, like a teleportation, bypassing countless defenses and appearing directly in front of Meng Old Devil!
This was the 'Great Void Flying Sword Technique' that he had improved!
In essence, it still utilized the Great Void for flashing, similar to incarnation teleportation, and was far superior to directly shattering the void.
