Chapter 627: Soul Devouring Abyss, Tearing Space
Chapter 627: Soul Devouring Abyss, Tearing Space
As the Demon Shadow Halberd launched another attack, the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord once again unleashed the Gale Wind Dart for a precise strike.
However, when he saw Chu Ning's figure flash and disappear, a cold smile crossed his eyes.
Suddenly, he half-turned, and his hands vigorously raised, forming a massive black sphere between them.
In the blink of an eye, a black hole formed within a five-zhuang range, as if it were about to devour everything in its path.
Just as he finished this move, a figure suddenly appeared.
It was Chu Ning!
Chu Ning was amazed at how accurately the Black Demon Lord could predict his spatial escape.
But at this moment, Chu Ning had no choice but to strike.
He channeled his essence energy, and the Annihilation Hammer in his hand slammed forward with force!
The Annihilation Hammer was surrounded by an invisible wave of essence energy, directly hitting the black hole in front of the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord.
Chu Ning instantly felt the powerful devouring force of the black hole, not only frantically consuming the essence energy on the Annihilation Hammer
But also seemingly attempting to swallow the hammer itself.
A chill ran down his spine, and Chu Ning fully activated the third volume of the Nine Transformation Body Cultivation Art, mobilizing the essence energy within his body.
He continued to unleash the formidable power of the Annihilation Hammer! Because at this moment, he could also sense that the invisible wave of essence energy on the hammer had not been completely devoured.
Instead, it was constantly compressing the black hole, creating a stalemate.
This time, the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord was genuinely surprised.
His Soul Devouring Abyss technique, under normal circumstances, would devour Nascent Soul Cultivators in the late stage, not to mention artifacts and spirit treasures.
There was even a high possibility that the cultivator's Nascent Soul would be directly sucked in.
But at this moment, even Chu Ning's treasure could not be devoured.
His sharp gaze fixed on the giant hammer in Chu Ning's hand, and finally, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Annihilation Hammer! How did the Nine Transformations Elder's spirit treasure end up in your hands?"
The Demon Slaughter Deity Lord was well aware that the Annihilation Hammer was a spirit treasure no weaker than his own Gale Wind Dart.
At this moment, he was slightly less surprised.
Even when he sensed the essence energy fluctuations in front of him, he wasn't overly startled.
He attributed it to the unique power of the Annihilation Hammer.
A strange light flashed in his eyes.
As a Demigod, he naturally understood why he couldn't truly achieve Divine Transformation.
"Perhaps obtaining the Annihilation Hammer will unravel the mystery of essence energy?"
With this thought, the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord immediately channeled his spiritual power, causing the black glow above the Soul Devouring Abyss to intensify.
"Not good!"
Feeling that he was somehow unable to control the Annihilation Hammer, Chu Ning's heart sank.
Indeed, he had underestimated the true power of this opponent, who was comparable to a Divine Transformation cultivator.
As Chu Ning's thoughts raced, pondering his next move, he suddenly felt a powerful divine sense pressing down on him.
"A divine sense attack?"
Chu Ning's heart stirred at this moment, as he had been continuously casting the Soul Suppression Technique.
This was his usual tactic when facing cultivators of higher realms.
Those of higher realms often believed that their divine sense was stronger, and subconsciously, they would launch divine sense attacks.
Evidently, the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord was thinking along the same lines.
As he launched the divine sense attack, the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord coldly watched Chu Ning.
He could sense that his Soul Devouring Abyss had put Chu Ning on the defensive.
However, this disadvantage was not enough to ensure Chu Ning's defeat.
So, he began to unleash divine sense attacks.
After all, Chu Ning was in the late stage of Nascent Soul, and even if the divine sense was powerful, it couldn't surpass his own.
As long as Chu Ning's divine sense was damaged and couldn't control the Annihilation Hammer well,
Not only would the hammer be lost, but Chu Ning's Nascent Soul would also be sucked in.
Everything would be over!
"!!!"
An invisible wave of divine sense attack directly struck Chu Ning's sea of consciousness.
An intense stinging sensation instantly appeared in the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord's mind.
The Soul Suppression Technique's divine sense backlash!!!
Chu Ning's divine sense was indeed weaker than that of a Demigod, as his True Spirit Art had not yet reached completion.
However, this difference was minuscule.
The power of the Soul Suppression Technique was such that unless one possessed twice the strength of Chu Ning's divine sense, they would suffer backlash.
And such a person was unlikely to exist in this realm.
At this moment, the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord suddenly experienced the divine sense backlash, and his heart skipped a beat.
He couldn't imagine how Chu Ning had managed this.
But being a Demigod cultivator, he instantly suppressed the backlash.
The Soul Devouring Abyss in front of him suddenly burst open, sweeping towards Chu Ning.
At the same time, his figure flashed, and he disappeared into the air.
Chu Ning was equally surprised to see the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord still capable of such divine abilities.
As the black hole-like vortex of demonic energy rushed towards him, Chu Ning's heart stirred, and he didn't immediately resort to teleportation to dodge.
At this moment, his Deathless Golden Body was activated, and the Turtle Shield also formed an outer defense.
Simultaneously, his spiritual power surged into the Annihilation Hammer.
Just as Chu Ning completed these actions, the black demonic mist enveloped him.
However, Chu Ning paid it no heed.
Instead, he swung the Annihilation Hammer towards his left rear.
And at the same moment Chu Ning attacked, a figure appeared in that spot.
It was none other than the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord! Seeing that Chu Ning wasn't dodging but intended to counterattack, the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord couldn't help but sneer.
His figure paused slightly.
He didn't rashly attack but waited for the demonic mist to completely envelop Chu Ning.
"The Demon Vortex Energy in the Soul Devouring Abyss is refined from the true demonic energy of a Beyond World Demon, which I obtained after enduring countless hardships. I also infused it with countless Yin-Vortex Energy.
This person dares to take such a risk. This time, I will devour your Primordial Spirit!"
The Demon Slaughter Deity Lord raised his hands, ready to attack as soon as the demonic energy enveloped Chu Ning.
But the next moment, the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord was astonished to find that his painstakingly cultivated Demon Vortex Energy was dissipating upon contact with the golden light surrounding Chu Ning.
Not only could it not devour Chu Ning's Primordial Spirit, but it couldn't even envelop him.
"What kind of treasure is this? It can actually resist my Demon Vortex Energy?"
The Demon Slaughter Deity Lord assumed that the golden light was emitted by the Turtle Shield, and he was amazed.
Without giving the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord time to think further, Chu Ning, protected by his Deathless Golden Body, infused his Essence Energy into the Annihilation Hammer and swung it down with full force!
Since the Demon Vortex Energy couldn't trap Chu Ning, he was able to unleash the full power of the Annihilation Hammer.
Whether it was the Demon Vortex Energy's inability to affect Chu Ning or Chu Ning's counterattack, both were unexpected for the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord.
Suddenly, Chu Ning used the Annihilation Hammer to attack, and even the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord, as powerful as he was, couldn't dodge in such a short time.
As the Annihilation Hammer struck, the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord, in his haste, could only gather his spiritual power and Demon Vortex Energy to cast a spell to counter the hammer.
But this Annihilation Hammer was the Spirit Treasure of the Heavenly Transformation Elder, the number one person in this realm.
Although Chu Ning wasn't a Demigod Realm cultivator, with the aid of his Essence Energy, he was no weaker than a Demigod.
The powerful destructive force shattered the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord's defense, and the next moment, the Annihilation Hammer struck him without hindrance.
The destructive force formed by the Essence Energy penetrated his body.
The Demon Slaughter Deity Lord's face paled, and his body was sent flying by the force.
Then, he vanished into the air.
When the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord reappeared, he was already more than a hundred meters away.
In his hand, the Gale Wind Dart had appeared at some point.
"Huh?"
Chu Ning's face showed a hint of surprise.
"This Gale Wind Dart not only has the effect of disrupting spatial forces but also seems to be a spatial movement treasure itself.
It even blocked the attack of the Demon Shadow Halberd just now.
This treasure is indeed extraordinary and not an ordinary item."
As these thoughts crossed his mind, Chu Ning waved his hand, and the Demon Shadow Halberd and Chaos Spirit Sword returned to his grasp.
At this moment, the figure of the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord disappeared again.
And when Chu Ning tried to sense him again, he couldn't detect any spatial fluctuations from the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord's movement.
Apparently, the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord had used the Gale Wind Dart.
Chu Ning's figure flickered, and he too vanished into the air, but he didn't use spatial teleportation. Instead, he moved horizontally to the side, covering a distance of about ten meters.
At the same time, he casually waved his hand towards the direction he had come from.
Void Rend!!
As Chu Ning performed this secret technique, a spatial rift suddenly appeared on the path he had taken.
As soon as the black spatial rift appeared, the invisible Gale Wind Dart that had been hidden within it suddenly emerged.
Then, it directly entered the black rift.
"Spatial Rift!"
In the distance, the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord, who had just revealed himself, showed a look of confusion in his eyes.
He had indeed sensed Chu Ning's position when Chu Ning used spatial teleportation by relying on the Gale Wind Dart.
Immediately, he activated the Gale Wind Dart to see if he could injure Chu Ning with one strike.
But he never expected a spatial rift to appear in the air.
It was only after the Gale Wind Dart disappeared along with the spatial rift that the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord realized what had happened.
His eyes widened in shock.
"Ripping Space! What kind of treasure do you have that can directly tear open space and create a spatial rift?!"
As he spoke, the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord's eyes widened in fury.
The Gale Wind Dart was his most important treasure, yet it had completely vanished from his grasp.
He couldn't sense it at all.
This both surprised and enraged him.
"Good! I truly underestimated you!
Dare to destroy my treasure, then offer up your own as a sacrifice!
Today, I'll risk depleting my lifespan to ensure your demise!"
A chilling voice, as if seeping into one's bones, echoed in the air.
The Demon Slaughter Deity Lord held the giant axe that had just returned to his hand, and his figure suddenly swelled.
He towered at three zhang tall, his body enveloped in black energy, truly like a demon god descending.
Upon seeing this, Chu Ning knew his opponent was about to unleash a decisive move, and his heart skipped a beat.
Infusing his power into the Demon Shadow Halberd, he launched an attack, but Chu Ning's Chaos Spirit Sword didn't rush to strike.
Instead, it circled around him, ready to counter any potential danger.
As the Demon Shadow Halberd unleashed its attack towards the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord, Chu Ning also saw the latter's axe cleave down, a massive black beam tearing through the heavens and earth, heading straight for him.
At that moment, the entire sky seemed to be split in two.
What surprised Chu Ning even more was that when he prepared to dodge with Void Rend, he found the spatial force violently fluctuating.
The Demon Slaughter Deity Lord hadn't used the Gale Wind Dart to manipulate the spatial force again.
Chu Ning naturally dared not attempt Void Rend again.
With such intense fluctuations in the spatial force, it was easy for spatial rifts to form.
If he tried to escape using Void Rend, he might be swallowed by a spatial rift, just like the Gale Wind Dart.
Without dodging, Chu Ning held the Chaos Spirit Sword before him, channeling the Primordial Divine Art, and slashed down with equal force.
Instantly, a sword beam pierced through his body, meeting the black beam from the descending axe.
At that very moment, the Demon Shadow Halberd also reached the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord.
But it was cleaved by the demon's axe, sending it flying.
Simultaneously, the sword beam from Chu Ning's Chaos Spirit Sword clashed with the black beam that had split the heavens, and it immediately disintegrated.
As the black beam attacked again, Chu Ning responded by unleashing the Chaos Spirit Sword.
The transparent, crystal-like Chaos Spirit Sword directly confronted the black beam in mid-air, shattering it into countless specks of black light.
The next moment, these specks of black light flew back, converging on the head of the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord's axe.
"True Demon Vortex Energy!"
Chu Ning's eyes flashed as he witnessed this scene, faintly sensing a resemblance to his previous encounter with the Beyond World Demon.
However, he didn't have time to ponder further, as the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord took a giant step in the air, his axe cleaving down once more.
A black beam tore through the heavens again, aiming at Chu Ning.
This time, Chu Ning didn't directly counter with the Chaos Spirit Sword.
With a casual wave, he unleashed Void Rend once more.
But the black beam was too vast, even the spatial rift created by Void Rend couldn't consume it all.
About half of the black beam still rushed towards Chu Ning.
Chu Ning, once again, drove the Chaos Spirit Sword to meet the attack.
At the same time, the Demon Shadow Halberd was also summoned by him.
The Chaos Spirit Sword dispersed the black beam into countless specks of black light, and the next moment, the Demon Shadow Halberd flew towards the axe.
These specks of black light were about to converge on the axe again, but at that instant, the Demon Shadow Halberd also emitted a surge of black energy.
Suddenly, a devouring force appeared, consuming nearly three-tenths of the black specks.
First, half of them were swallowed by the spatial rift, and now, nearly three-tenths of the remaining black vortex energy was devoured by the Demon Shadow Halberd.
However, the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord's body was still brimming with surging demon energy. After his axe absorbed the black specks, he cleaved down once more.
Chu Ning responded by employing the same strategy as before.
After several rounds, Chu Ning could sense that the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord's black demon energy was subtly waning.
"This demon's attack, enhanced by the axe, is indeed formidable. If it weren't for my Chaos Spirit Sword, forged with Black Chaos Gold, capable of resisting the True Demon Vortex Energy,
along with the spatial rift created by Void Rend and the devouring power of the Demon Shadow Halberd, it would be truly challenging to deal with.
With this strategy, although I've expended a significant amount, I've already consumed three drops of ten-thousand-year Spirit Milk.
However, the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord's depletion is also substantial. I must find an opportunity to strike with the Celestial Mirror and ensure a decisive blow."
As Chu Ning pondered, he noticed the Demon Slaughter Deity Lord's black demon energy violently surging.
All the demon energy converged on the giant axe.
Before the black beam could descend, the entire world, whether it was spiritual energy or spatial force, began to fluctuate intensely!
