Chapter 2263
“This… How is that possible? ”
You Yan could not believe her eyes.
As a demigod, he was very clear on the power of exploding Divine Crystals, not to mention exploding the nine Divine Crystals at the same time. At such a close distance, even if the opponent was also a demigod, it would still be difficult to escape from them. He still had the confidence to avoid this. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have made such a decision.
However, what he saw now completely overturned everything he knew.
Even a SemiGod Ranker couldn’t take the attack, but Tang Huan, a Peak Level Sky Sovereign, actually managed to take it head on. Furthermore, it looked like he was completely unscathed.
This was simply unbelievable!
Before long, the stream of blood-colored energy dissipated into the air. However, the power it emanated seemed as if it would shatter the entire area, as if it would collapse at any moment. However, the transparent round cover continued to fly forward while Tang Huan was still being watched by the unfathomable You Yan.
“You Yan, do you think that I don’t have God’s Crystal when you have it?”
Facing the shock and fear in her eyes, Tang Huan smiled indifferently. The moment she finished speaking, the transparent round cover disappeared at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye.
The nine crystals detonated by his Netherflame was truly incomparably powerful.
However, Tang Huan’s protective shield formed from the power of the Divine Crystal had a natural advantage when fighting against the Netherworld Flame. Different cultivators had different levels of divine crystals, but the quality of Tang Huan’s divine crystals far surpassed Nether Flames’. This was the reason why Tang Huan was so confident.
The power of the divine crystal allowed Tang Huan’s divine crystal power to form a kind of suppression on the flame, eliminating its offensive to the point of nothingness.
Of course, this kind of suppression was also built on the basis that Tang Huan was stronger than the Netherworld Flame.
If Tang Huan was even weaker than the You Yan, his previous actions might have been a mess. Other than that, if the Netherworld Flame chose to attack using some other method, Tang Huan would not be able to rely on the power of the divine crystal alone. Just like how Tang Huan had been severely injured when the Crescent Moon Celestial Sphere was detonated by the Netherworld Flame.
“God … The divine crystal … ”
You Yan stared at the round cover that was quickly dissipating around Tang Huan, her eyes filled with unconcealable anger, sorrow, and even regret.
He should have thought of that.
To be able to defeat a SemiGod expert like him, how could he be an ordinary peak Superior Empyrean? Tang Huan definitely had Divine Crystals, and there was more than one of them. After he had escaped from the Crescent Heavenly Ball, he had had a faint guess. Unfortunately, he had subconsciously ignored it.
At this moment, he was in complete despair.
Since escaping failed, he knew that he wouldn’t be able to escape death, so he decided to perish together with Tang Huan. This way, even if he died, he could at least drag someone along with him. In the future, the Heavenly Dao might bring him back to life due to his contributions.
However, what happened next was completely out of his expectations.
Now that the nine divine crystals had exploded, his Dao Nascent Soul was on the verge of collapse, so even if Tang Huan didn’t kill him, he wouldn’t be able to hold on for long.
Tang Huan did not speak further, he extended his arm, and hooked his fingers around the flame’s head.
In the midst of mind instructs (in a second), a powerful mind had already extended towards the Netherflame Spirit. Facing Tang Huan’s state of mind, he had no way of defending. In a split second later, Tang Huan’s mind had already entered the depths of You Yan’s soul.
“What do you want?” The Netherworld Flame suddenly woke up, shocked and angry at the same time.
“To look at the memories in your soul, of course.” Tang Huan smiled slowly.
“You … “In your dreams!” The Netherflame roared.
“It’s not up to you.” Tang Huan’s eyes turned slightly cold and in an instant, his boundless soul force swept through his mind like a flood and quickly invaded the Netherworld Flame Soul. With lightning speed, it overturned the mountains and completely dispersed the resistance the Netherworld Flame had formed with its life on the line.
“…”
Although Youyan’s body was still struggling, it was getting weaker and weaker.
After a few short breaths of time, the Netherworld Flame had completely calmed down, and under Tang Huan’s slightly raised right palm, a dense, blood-colored aura rose from the top of his head. This blood-colored aura fluctuated intensely, as if it was a spirit object that possessed life.
However, no matter how much he struggled, he was unable to escape the imprisonment of Tang Huan’s right palm.
This was the soul of the Netherworld Flame!
After a while, the ball of blood Qi had completely left You Yan’s head and landed on the palm of Tang Huan’s right hand. You Yan’s body quickly went limp and collapsed at the top of the altar.
Tang Huan no longer paid any attention to You Yan’s body. Instead, he sat cross-legged on the high altar as his mind was completely immersed in his soul.
The flame was sent by the Heavenly Dao of the world on the other side of the world. It could be said to be the vanguard of the Heavenly Dao.
No matter how one looked at it, the Netherworld Flame was a very important existence.
Searching his soul, he would definitely be able to learn many secrets. However, this fellow was a half-god expert after all. Although Tang Huan had extracted his soul from his body, it wasn’t possible to completely destroy his consciousness and obtain all of his memories in a short period of time.
Time passed quietly.
“Hu!”
After a few hours, Tang Huan finally let out a light sigh, and slowly opened his eyes.
Just as he had guessed, this crevice space was used as a bridgehead for the Heavenly Dao to devour this plane of the world, while the Heavenly Dao was used by the Heavenly Dao to control the Heavenly Dao in the Realm of the Gods.
Once the Netherworld Flame was set up, the Heavenly Daos would descend into this space, and the invasion and devouring of the real world would also begin.
“He is cultivating the path ahead of us, and he is secretly training in Chen Cang!”
Tang Huan couldn’t help but sigh.
This time, he sneaked into the crack in the space to save his mother. In the end, he got entangled with the Netherworld Flame, and it could be said that he accidentally foiled the plans of the Heavenly Dao. Now that You Yan was dead, it was impossible for Tian Dao to send another demigod powerhouse like He Yan to stand guard over there in a short period of time.
The reason that You Yan had been chosen by the Heavenly Daos was because of the unique characteristics of his Ghost Goddess race. With him as the mother body, he could split into many extremely powerful children, and with those children as the mother body, he could once again split into many more children. He could continue this cycle, and as long as the Netherworld Flame came over, his Phantom God Clan would be able to successfully take root here, causing their tribe to become more and more powerful …
The more powerful it was.
If the heavenly ball was not destroyed, then every few decades in the future, the number of members of the Demonic Sound Clan would be able to double. In at most two to three hundred years, the entire space would be encompassed by the Demonic Sound Domain.
However, the Crescent Moon Sphere had been detonated, and the Netherworld Flame was not far from death. The plot of the Celestial Way had been completely ruined.
If the Heavenly Dao wanted to devour this world, they could only start with the “Ruins of God”… Thinking about it, Tang Huan’s expression immediately became heavy.
According to You Yan’s judgement, the reason why the two Heavenly Daos had been in a stalemate for so long was not because the Heavenly Daos did not have the strength to invade from that direction, but because it wanted to achieve its goal at the lowest price. Otherwise, even if it defeated the Heavenly Daos here, it would consume a lot of energy.
If this was the case, the Heavenly Daos would need an incomparably long time to completely engulf this world.
Therefore, it had opened up a new path, starting from this crevice in space.
But now that something had happened, the Heavenly Daos might very well place a desperate bet on the Realm of the Gods, speeding up their invasion and absorption of this plane of existence.
In that moment, a sense of urgency rose in Tang Huan’s heart.
Once the Heavenly Daos completely invaded and Tang Huan hadn’t confirmed her dao position, it would be difficult for her to even protect herself, let alone her wife, children, and friends.
“I need to get back to the Ruins of God as soon as possible!”
Tang Huan made a prompt decision, but before leaving the crevice in space, he needed to destroy this altar.
Within the plane barrier, the altar was formed by the Heavenly Daos after spending countless amounts of time and energy. It was able to connect the Heavenly Daos.
As long as it existed, the Heavenly Dao would continue to stir up trouble through this high altar. If the “Ruins of God” didn’t progress smoothly, the Heavenly Daos might use this high altar to create a hole in the face barrier. If that happened, it would be even more dangerous.
Without this high tower, the Heavenly Dao would lose an important chess piece.
With a single thought, a ball of “Primal Chaos Dao-fire” covered the soul of the Netherflame in his palm. After an instant, the blood-colored aura had already completely melted. Immediately after, Tang Huan took a light breath, and completely enveloped the altar under his body with his enormous consciousness, seeping it in bit by bit.
In the deepest part of the high altar, there was a small space with a radius of ten meters.
In the center of the space floated a blood-colored ball the size of a sea bowl. From time to time, it would give off a faint, bloody luster, giving off a demonic feeling.
The bead was called the “Heaven’s Path Pearl” by the dark flame and was formed by the heavenly dao from the world next door. What it contained was the heavenly dao energy from that world. It was precisely because of the existence of the “Heaven’s Path Pearl” that this high altar could constantly absorb the energy of this world and use it to open up dimensional passages.
Right now, what Tang Huan wanted to do was to take the Heavenly Dao Pearl away.
Without the Heaven’s Path Pearl, this tall altar would naturally vanish into thin air.
After a few breaths of time, Tang Huan had already used his “yin and yang dao diagram”, and the black and white whirlpool appeared out of nowhere, as if it had absorbed Tang Huan. In half a blink of an eye, Tang Huan had disappeared from the top of the altar, and immediately, a black and white vortex appeared in the space inside the altar.
Then, Tang Huan’s figure flashed and appeared.
In the very instant he appeared, Tang Huan’s gaze landed on that blood colored ball.
Tang Huan did not hesitate at all. With just a thought, the “Nine Yang Divine Furnace” immediately fell towards the Heavenly Dao Pearl’s barrier.
Previous Chapter Next Chapter “Boom!”
The moment the cauldron was about to swallow the blood red bead, a terrifying resistance surged forth from within, and actually nearly knocked the “Nine Yang Divine Furnace” away. Fortunately, Tang Huan was already prepared, as he concentrated his mind, the boundless divine crystal power was instantly injected into the cauldron.
The cauldron that had been slightly stagnated because of the obstruction once again ruthlessly sank down. However, right at this moment, Tang Huan seemed to have felt two gazes passing through the spatial barrier towards him. That gaze was so cold that it was devoid of any emotion, yet it also seemed to contain a supreme dignity that was difficult to resist. It was like a lofty emperor looking down on all living beings …
。
However, at almost the same time, the cauldron had ultimately been swallowed by the blood-red bead.
“Heavenly Dao!”
Those two extremely dignified gazes, seemed to be cut off from each other. Tang Huan who was just distracted suddenly woke up, but his heart immediately had a trace of understanding. He knew that what he experienced just now was definitely not an illusion. The moment the cauldron touched the “Heaven’s Path Pearl,” the Heavenly Dao in the neighboring world sensed it and shifted its attention to it. It was a good thing that there was a wall blocking the way. Otherwise, the Heavenly Dao would have arrived here immediately …
Tang Zheng instantly killed everything. The Heavenly Dao of a single plane of existence was not something the current Tang Huan could contend against.
Right now, even though Tang Huan was still safe and sound, he knew that Tian Dao had already noticed him.
It seemed that he had to be careful after returning to the Ruins.
On the God Ruins’ side, the powers that the Heavenly Daos can utilize are not something that this place can compare with. It was a good thing he had [Nine Yang Divine Furnace], four Divine Crystals, and a Chaos Immortal Body. If Tang Huan could completely hide his Qi, then there was no need for him to panic.
With that thought, Tang Huan’s gaze fell on the “Nine Yang Divine Furnace” that was flying back.
Inside the cauldron, the “Heaven’s Path Pearl” lay still, not struggling at all. In regards to this, Tang Huan was not surprised at all. The “Nine Yang Divine Furnace” was a magical equipment that transcended the Heavenly Dao. Its existence had completely cut off the connection and response between the Heavenly Dao and the “Heavenly Dao Pearl”.
With a thought, the cauldron returned to Tang Huan’s Dantian with the “Heaven’s Path Pearl”. Soon after, Tang Huan discovered that the surrounding space had become much emptier. He understood that the high altar was melting. “The reason is also very simple.” The Heaven’s Path Pearl was the foundation of this altar. Now that the foundation was gone, this altar could no longer exist like a tree that had no roots and no source
。
Not long later, the altar completely disappeared from Tang Huan’s sight.
Tang Huan did not hesitate, immediately turning into a ray of light and flying out of the cave at an astonishing speed. Very quickly, Tang Huan charged out of the passage through the spatial barrier. At this time, not only did the high altar disappear, the blood-colored whirlpool also disappeared without a trace.
Tang Huan did not plan to absorb that “Heaven’s Path Pearl by himself.” Rather, he planned to merge it into the “Illusory Sword Heavenly Palace” after refining it. This “Heaven’s Path Pearl” contained an incomparably pure Heavenly Energy. If it could be completely absorbed, not only would the space of the abode be completely restored, it would even be able to ascend to another level.
