Chapter 3854 - Cosmic God Essence
"Go, Little Bro!" Bai Ye cried to Tianming as it held back the grand scorchpath suanni.
With a flash, Meow Meow propelled Tianming toward Fentian He. Their searing gazes clashed once more. The astral giant roared as he struck toward Tianming.
"Stargates, open!" Tianming raised the Grand-Orient Sword and split it in two, separating his totems into two groups. He used the imperial-class sword art of the Starfall Pantheon, Desolation Stargate Sword Formation, fusing two stargates together.
Omnisentient power flooded into the swords and the totems within them. When both swords were swung, they created two grand stargates that opened to reveal Saturatia-49 and the Ninefold Hellstar. The two maniverse-class worlds were formed of dense sword formations that pressed down on Fentian He! The strike shone so bright that even the people huddling indoors on Starmoon Haven could see it. Anyone who wasn't a cosmic god felt divine terror.
"Huh?!" Fentian He was absolutely shocked. "How’s he so much stronger than last time?!" It was ridiculous! Absolutely unbelievable! Tianming himself seemed to go against the laws of the universe, a fact that Fentian He struggled to accept.
He called out to his beast and to Hei Xuan and the Mos. He sensed that he wouldn't be able to take that sword strike head-on. He mounted a fighting retreat with Ninerealm Startanglement, Sky Scattering. Though cosmic god beastmasters were enough to terrify astral gods and destroy divine astralships, they wouldn't dare go up against other non-beastmaster cosmic gods of the same level. And that was the case even for the strongest beastmaster of the Sundown Pantheon!
The scorching chain whipped toward Tianming once more like a shower of stars, yet Tianming was able to completely shatter the attack with his combined strike. The sword formation blasted the Skyscorch Desolation into countless pieces as it came closer and closer to Fentian He's head!
It only took an instant! "Impossib—" Fentian He's head, body, and limbs were rapidly severed. It felt like countless tiny universes were imploding to give rise to the most brilliant astral fireworks and inspire many to write poems, though his cries of agony and rage ruined the beauty of it all. Though he had completely crumbled, Fentian He was still alive, just like last time!
"Save me!" he roared. Though his mind had been pushed to the edge of insanity, he still gathered his cosmoforce to contain the explosions of energy around him into a sphere. The surface of the sphere looked like multi-layered heavy armor. Though it was only around ten meters across, it was incredibly tough! Tianming struck it, but failed to make a dent!
"Is that cosmic god essence?" Tianming was impressed that, even after astral giants' bodies were completely shattered, they could turn into something that converted all their fighting power to defense. It was like a turtle hiding in its shell.
"I heard that they can only be killed by refining them over a long time, during which they can't be given the slightest chance to recover. Otherwise, they'd regain their astral bodies and escape!" It was impossible for Tianming to instantly kill cosmic gods as he was now, but it was enough for him to render them completely unable to fight back.
