Chapter 46 The Dark Li, The Great Battle
The moment the great formation shattered, the three of them sensed an unusual aura far beyond their own, vast and profound, yet completely incompatible with the Netherworld, full of contradictions.
Sensing the essence of this aura, Fuxi was certain that Mingli was an invader from another world, and this aura was almost identical to that of the other world invader he had killed in the past.
The gray-white banner in Fuxi's hand transformed into a thirty-three-tiered Xuanhuang pagoda, hanging high above the three of them, with countless strands of Xuanhuang energy descending from heaven and earth.
Houtu's earth-shaking axis draws through the ten directions of the earth's veins, which then evolve into a human body with a snake tail, seven heads on its back, and two hands on its chest, embracing the sacred body of the underworld.
In Xuanming's hand, ice and snow sculpted a beautiful and magnificent Flying Snow Bow, from which cold air condensed and transformed into an ice and snow arrow.
"Good decision! Detonating the formation before I could break the seal, forcing me to face the destructive power of the formation head-on. Who among you came up with this idea?"
A voice tinged with anger rang out, and a gust of wind blew by, slowly dispersing the dust and blood mist between heaven and earth.
Above the sinkhole, Zi Qingyi, with black hair and a strangely designed yet exquisitely crafted robe, looked at Fuxi, Houtu, and Xuanming with an extremely cold gaze.
"You're not injured?"
Xuanming's expression changed slightly as he looked at Mingli, who was completely unharmed.
"It's just a disguise."
Fuxi looked at Mingli and let out a soft laugh.
Do you know someone named Qihe?
Frowning as he looked at Fuxi, Mingli ignored him. He had never heard of Qihe and disdained to pay attention to Fuxi, who was merely a junior Golden Immortal.
However, Fuxi saw through his attempt to conceal his injuries at a glance, which made Mingli take a closer look at Fuxi.
"The three of you possess considerable fortune, and you are likely chosen ones in this desolate world. Last time, I allowed you to use the power of this world to seal me away, but this time you will not have that opportunity."
Mingli sneered, and an iron sword covered with purple patterns appeared in his hand. In an instant, his chilling aura locked onto Fuxi, Houtu, and Xuanming.
As the hurricane struck, the fierce winds swept through, and in a mere fraction of a second, Mingli's figure appeared above Fuxi. His iron sword slashed down, its extreme sharpness causing Fuxi's pupils to shrink as he sensed the intense aura of death.
Mingli acted decisively this time. He believed that he was sealed away last time because he was careless. Therefore, this time Mingli wanted to eliminate Fuxi, Houtu and Xuanming as quickly and decisively as possible.
The Thirty-Three-Layered Xuanhuang Pagoda trembled slightly as the iron sword slashed down, piercing and annihilating layer upon layer of Xuanhuang Qi. Almost instantly, most of the Thirty-Three-Layered Xuanhuang Pagoda collapsed.
However, Mingli looked at the remaining half of the tower and the layers of primordial energy in front of him, and his expression changed slightly. He hadn't held back at all.
His full-force attack, delivered by a cultivator at the Taiyi realm, failed to break through the Xuanhuang Pagoda, which was merely being wielded by a Golden Immortal. This was somewhat unacceptable to him.
The iron sword struck down once more, and this time the magnificent sword light finally and completely destroyed the Xuanhuang Pagoda.
However, at this moment, the attacks from Fuxi, Houtu, and Xuanming also followed.
As Houtu brought down the Earth Sphere in her hand, the power of thousands of mountains and peaks condensed into a single point. A dazzling golden light transformed into a long rainbow that pierced through heaven and earth, and the void resounded with the sound of collapse due to the unbearable pressure.
Houtu's attack was so powerful that it drew upon the essence of the mountains and rivers in all directions, enough to threaten even a powerful being at the Taiyi realm.
Xuanming drew back the Flying Snow Bow, and in an instant, twelve icy arrows pierced through Mingli's path.
Cold, deep, dark, chaotic, Xuanming opened the Great Dao. Xuanming represents all the darkness, death, coldness, and the way of Xuanyin between heaven and earth.
These twelve ice and snow arrows embodied Xuanming's lifelong insights and were powerful enough to severely injure a Taiyi realm expert.
"As expected of innate gods and demons born from the origin of heaven and earth, if you were allowed to grow up, I'm afraid even the top powers in our world would not be worth your attention."
"It's just a pity that this world has only recently been created, and it hasn't given you enough time to grow!"
Mingli sneered, and a suit of armor covered with countless tadpole-shaped patterns appeared on his body.
The Earth Sphere, which had been forged from the essence of countless mountains and peaks, struck down, but it only forced Mingli back half a step. The terrifying power, enough to crush the void into powder, merely caused a few cracks to appear on Mingli's armor.
Twelve icy arrows pierced through the air, accompanied by twelve crisp metallic sounds. Twelve dents appeared on Mingli's armor once again. The combined full-force attacks of Houtu and Xuanming couldn't even break through the armor's defenses.
boom!!
As the iron sword fell, yin and yang flowed, and between the flow of yin and yang, the purple-patterned iron sword that was about to strike Houtu was blocked.
In the Eight Methods of Form Theory, the four major methods of Yang Essence Method, True Lead Method, Mysterious Pearl Method, and Yellow Sprout Method were all activated. Fuxi raised his cultivation, combat power, and physical strength to the extreme. The Taiji diagram in front of him slowly rotated, restraining Mingli's sword.
"Is this all the strength you have left?"
On the Taiji diagram transformed from the fish-dragon diagram at Fuxi's fingertips, black and white fish flew out. Between the yin and yang, a vast and mighty force, as if the heavens and earth were opening up, forcibly lifted the iron sword that was radiating billions of sword lights.
Feeling the immense pressure emanating from the Taiji diagram, Fuxi smiled, looked at Mingli before him, and said coldly.
"Are you so happy just because you blocked one of my casual attacks?"
Mingli's expression was cold and sinister. The purple-patterned iron sword in his hand exploded with light and swiftly tore the Taiji diagram apart.
Yin and Yang spiritual light intertwined, the fish-dragon diagram in Fuxi's hand shrank, and an ancient sword decorated with blue lotus patterns flew out from the fish-dragon diagram, carrying the true meaning of the end of all things returning to nothingness, and slashed at Mingli.
The iron sword fell, the ancient sword traversed the sky, Fuxi connected with the great power of heaven and earth, raising his own combat power to the extreme, the Azure Lotus Ancient Sword performed thousands of sword styles, annihilating the sword light slashed out by Mingli.
The Dragon Emperor's bloodline, the "Theory of Form," the Longevity Peach, and the Daoist spiritual light that connect to the origin of heaven and earth—all these combined forces allowed Fuxi's combat power to directly reach the Taiyi realm.
The Azure Lotus Ancient Sword unleashed countless sword intents, forcing back the wielder, Mingli. The sword light swayed, and in a trance, it resembled a dragon god from the heavens, looking down upon all living beings.
Fuxi unleashed his arrogant and flamboyant sword techniques time and again, suppressing Mingli. The exquisite sword techniques that Fuxi displayed made Mingli's expression grow increasingly gloomy. Compared with Fuxi's swordsmanship, his swordsmanship, which he had painstakingly cultivated for millions of years, seemed to have not even stepped into the gate of the sword path.
With a single sword strike, the power of the Void stretched time. Mingli raised his sword to counterattack, only to find that the flow of time within him had been slowed down.
