The Rebirth of an Immortal Cultivator
Chapter 408: The Great War (4)
Mo Lian grabbed the warship and grasped it tightly. There was no damage he received like when trying to obtain a God Artifact, but a piercing chill was still felt.
He did not pay much attention to it and continued to force it to destroy warships. Just by destroying this, the Southern Region army could be said to be one level higher as it was able to use their energy again.
With a crack, the warship was instantly smashed into pieces with a loud bang.
The resilience of the battleship was weaker than the God Artifacts and coupled with Mo Lian's increased strength, she didn't need to try too hard to destroy it. But to his confusion, it was because Wu Gouyu let him destroy the ship, as if the ship was meaningless.
When the battleship was destroyed, countless lights shot out from the explosion.
Those lights were cultivators who were still hiding. Their lowest strength was an Early stage Earth God, and the highest one was a Late stage Heaven God.
Mo Lian felt a headache when thinking about why there were so many Earth Gods and Heaven Gods. Moreover, Late stage Heaven God, it was the ultimate power! It might even be possible in the Celestial Realm to only reach the Late stage Heaven God! Doesn't that mean Wu Gouyu was on par with the Jade Emperor or Jade Emperor?
Although his Soul Power was almost equivalent to a Late stage Heaven God, but his Physical Strength was only an Early stage Heaven God, and his Spiritual Strength was only an Early stage Earth God after being suppressed.
Mo Lian sighed, she cut off her left wrist. Golden blood shot out like a torrential stream, then broke into raindrops of countless amounts of rain.
Those drops of golden blood formed a pure golden-colored human body, like an impenetrable hard metal.
His sudden appearance shocked everyone. They all knew how to split apart when their strength had reached the Immortal Dao, and after arriving at the Earth Village, they could form thousands of incarnations. But, the cost required is quite large, and each death will have a bad impact.
And here, Mo Lian formed a dozen million incarnations. I don't know what price to pay for this kind of power.
Only Wu Gouyu still remained calm with this kind of change. He knew the person who was able to kill the Heaven God while still the Earth God was not a simple person, but still did not expect it to be this way.
Ancestor Zhu took a breath, his body re-enlarged although not in Vermillion's shape and his size was only three times the height of a normal human. Then he led the Zhu Family to attack ferociously, revealing their strength capable of dominating the Southern Region.
Mo Lian shrank back to her original size after successfully destroying the ship, and this made the other party think that she was weakened and injured by forcing herself. But what the other party didn't know, Mo Lian shrank her body from being too troublesome if she had to use the God of the Universe.
Although his strength increased, his mobility in movement was limited.
Wu Gouyu leaped backwards which shortened hundreds of thousands of miles. He took out a beautiful porcelain bottle, but it carried an ominous aura. He opened the bottle, and there were bloodworms streaking like shadows.
The Blood Worm broke through the defense of the Eight Yin Yang Diagrams, entering the corpse's body.
Suddenly, the corpse that had previously been unable to do anything, roared furiously as its eyes glowed red. The death aura of his body spread out, ruining the space around, even the space looked bleached and blackened, the lights of different colors flickered, bringing about incredible destruction.
Bang out!
A red mist burst out from his body, knocking out everyone no matter if they were cracking or opponents.
The living corpse managed to destroy the Eight Yin Yang Diagrams. He looked up at Mo Lian with his jet-black eyes.
Mo Lian sensed the threatening danger, she raised her hand forward. A golden curtain appeared in front of him to dispel the sense of danger that was coming.
With a bang, the golden curtain in front of Mo Lian trembled and suddenly cracks began to appear there as well as a black spear that tried to pierce through it.
Mo Lian raised her other hand to strengthen the golden curtain, but it was too late as someone attacked her from behind.
Mo Lian choked as blood got stuck in her throat, and then vomited it. He looked back, finding that the old man carrying the stick attacked him from behind.
Just as Mo Lian wanted to unleash an attack, her body suddenly froze as a black spear pierced her heart.
Mo Lian lowered her head, her eyes started to dim as her body dried up slowly. The radiating pain was followed by a chill piercing his head.
"Darling!" Qin Nian shouted loudly as he struck the opponent in front of him, then darted towards Mo Lian to save her.
All the golden clones that were facing the enemies, were smashed to pieces.
This reversal was too sudden, leaving everyone unable to act quickly.
Hong Xi Ning, Yun Ning and Qin Nian rushed towards Mo Lian. But they were intercepted by the Earth God, without delay, the Earth God unleashed their attack.
In desperation, the three of them exploded under the attack of the Earth God. Just leaving the Soul Core was light blue, white and purple. But there was faintly a golden energy protecting the Soul Core from being destroyed under the bombardment of the Earth God attack.
Wu Gouyu laughed out loud. "Haha! To think you're so weak! You're just an empty shell!"
Boom up!
Even as Wu Gouyu was still speaking, suddenly a loud explosion came from Mo Lian's dried up body.
The black figure and the corpse that held Mo Lian, crashed down with their shattered bodies. Mo Lian stood firmly in the middle, her eyes looking white without any light, the aura she carried was stronger than before.
Mo Lian disappeared on the spot, moving towards the Soul Core of her wives who were being attacked nonstop. He was furious, but his expression was flat emotionless unless the death aura he carried overflowed.
Duarr! Duarr! Duarr!
Where Mo Lian stepped, the Earth Deities that were hit by her trajectory would instantly explode alongside their Soul Core.
"Darling ..." Mo Lian carried the three Soul Intents with both hands; her emotionless white eyes were seen letting out tears, her flat voice faltering like there was a stone stuck in her throat.
Hundreds of Earth Gods instantly appeared around Mo Lian, unleashing their strongest attacks. There were even those that burned their blood and qi for their strength to increase by one or two small tiers.
Mo Lian was like a soulless puppet, not caring about all the attacks that shot towards her. But just as the attack was about to hit it, there was suddenly the sound of bells buzzing and could be heard by all the beings in the Southern Region.
"The Law of Death: The Destruction of the World."
From under Mo Lian's feet, a black floor appeared in a circular shape. It expanded in the blink of an eye, pulling out everyone who was on it and smashing into it violently.
Then, the thin black floor cast a black hand shadow. That black hand pulled out all the people who had fallen, sucking them into the shadows under the wails and horrifying screams.
Not stopping, a terrifying aura escaped from Mo Lian's body, giving even more ferocious destruction. The space and time gap opened, releasing a relentless lightning strike that struck indiscriminately.
Mo Lian turned to look at Wu Gouyu. His gaze was still emotionless flat, and as he stepped up, he instantly arrived in front of Wu Gouyu.
Wu Gouyu fell over involuntarily, a fine sweat running down his forehead and this made him shocked as he was frightened.
At that moment, from the space crack, blue energy seeped out forming a hand. Then the hand held both sides of the gap, and opened it forcefully.
Boom up!
Relentless explosions began to occur, but strangely all of them were only targeted to troops from the Western Region. Everyone was killed, leaving only the Heaven God who still survived under the torturous pressure.
Mo Lian raised her hand slowly about to grab Wu Gouyu's neck...
Right at that moment, suddenly someone was holding Mo Lian's hand.
It made Mo Lian regain her senses because she knew the aura holding her back. He turned his head left, finding that there was Hong Xi Jiang holding him back.
Tears flowed again, Mo Lian sobbed as she spoke. "Yue Fu, I'm sorry. Because of me, Ning'er has to experience pain."
Hong Xi Jiang lowered his head looking at the protected Soul Core, then looked back up looking at Mo Lian. "Tree of the World, you can't keep it under pressure. You sacrificed your age to use the power of the Hanzi Realm, this is against the rules."
Wu Gouyu who was a meter away, fell silent without being able to move even once. Even opening his mouth is not possible.
Ancestor Zhu gasped for breath as he managed to kill many Earth Gods. He raised his head, then his body trembled and stepped back when he saw Hong Xi Jiang. "Ka-Ka-You ... The emperor!"
Hong Xi Jiang looked at Ancestor Zhu through the corner of his eyes, making Ancestor Zhu instantly prostrate under intense pressure. Then, Hong Xi Jiang looked at Mo Lian. "I'm amazed at you for using a similar method, but your body is unable to withstand it. It's time for you to break through to the God of Heaven."
Mo Lian pondered for a moment with a blank look. "Yue Fu, have you been pretending not to understand, even though you are very knowledgeable?"
Wu Gouyu trembled violently, he had once heard of a strong person from the Southern Region being called “Emperor Without a Crown”, even the Chief until being defeated in just a few exchanges of blows while they were still Dao Immortal. Only the Ancestor could defeat him and drive him out of the Southern Region, but right now the Ancestor was no longer in the Universe.
Hong Xi Jiang did not reply, but rather waved his hand, helping the reconstruction of Hong Xi Jiang's, Qin Nian's and Yun Ning's bodies. But that was not all, as the wave of his other hand healed the Southern Region from the destruction caused by the “Law of Death: The Destruction of the World”.
Hong Xi Jiang stared intently at Wu Gouyu. He raised his hand, tapping Wu Gouyu's forehead with his finger.
Suddenly, Wu Gouyu shouted loudly as a vein was seen on his forehead. He crouched down while holding his head, his sharp nails piercing his scalp with excruciating pain.
Mo Lian ignored Wu Gouyu after seeing him for a while. The focus now was Hong Xi Jiang. "Yue Fu, I'm willing to get punished for being negligent in guarding Ning'er like you mentioned."
Hong Xi Ning was stunned as she had just found out. He panicked and asked, "What is that?!"
Hong Xi Jiang opened his mouth about to say, but upon seeing the tears that soaked Hong Xi Ning's face. He could only sigh.
"Use all your resources to increase their strength. And, quickly break through the Heaven God! This is the limit."
Mo Lian nodded her head. Even though in terms of strength it was no different from a Heaven God, but reaching a real Heaven God certainly made a difference.
Hong Xi Jiang turned around about to leave.
"Wait!" Mo Lian held him back, there was still a puzzling question to ask.
Hong Xi Jiang already knew what he wanted to ask, and shook his head. "Find me the Heavenly Consciousness as you say. Although it's not, and ..."
Hong Xi Jiang turned his head looking up, as if looking at the person who was playing destiny behind the scenes. "Go there, teach a lesson. Let them know, humans are not a race to be played with."
"Really crafty, they cut off the energy from the Celestial Realm and made the Universe poor like this."
Mo Lian was silent. It was not satisfied, but it was even more confused by Hong Xi Jiang's statement. And when he wanted to ask, Hong Xi Jiang had already disappeared.
"This ..." Mo Lian scratched her head. "How strong is Yue Fu?"
