Chapter 345: Chapter 184: Divine Skill – Dragon Moving Nine Heavens
The sky was dim, the clouds as black as ink and heavy as mountains. A suffocating darkness pressed down, threatening to collapse.
“RUMBLE!!”
Countless bolts of thunder ravaged the heavens, emitting blinding flashes that shattered space itself. Wielding supreme Divine Power, they descended upon the Celestial Bull—a stout and mighty fiend with horns on its head and eyes like copper bells!
“Ah! Damned Human Race, I will never forgive you!” A murderous glint flashed in the Celestial Bull’s copper-bell eyes as the immense Demon Qi within it erupted. A terrifying, ink-green Demon Qi enveloped its body, releasing an aura that made the very world tremble.
The next moment, the Celestial Bull raised a thick, dark arm into the air. It clenched its five fingers into a fist surging with terrifying Demon Qi. Its gaze hardened as it drew its arm back, gathering power, before unleashing a ferocious punch.
In an instant, a terrifying, giant Fist Seal condensed from the ink-green Demon Qi crushed the space before it. It streaked across the sky like a meteor, carrying immense Demonic Power as it smashed toward the thousands of space-shattering bolts of thunder!
“BANG!”
The thunder, like a Celestial Punishment tearing through the heavens, collided with the giant, ink-green Fist Seal that crushed the void like a meteor. The impact triggered a world-shaking explosion. The surrounding space shattered like glass, revealing an endless, pitch-black abyss. Even the thick clouds in the sky were utterly annihilated by the shockwave.
Sunlight poured through the massive hole in the sky, appearing blindingly bright in the dim, dark Silent Extinction Abyss and casting down brilliant rays of light.
From a distance, the sky looked as if it had collapsed, opening a path to the void beyond the realm—an absolutely shocking sight!
But after that one strike, the Celestial Bull showed no sign of stopping.
A cold light flashed in its copper-bell eyes.
‘His Magical Cultivation is only at the Tongxuan Realm Early Stage.’
‘How dare a mere Tongxuan Realm Early Stage Cultivator stand before me?’
‘I must kill him!’
‘I’ll consider it collecting some interest for my fallen kin.’
At this thought, an even more tyrannical Demon Qi erupted from the Celestial Bull. The surrounding world trembled violently, as if struck by a flash flood.
The Celestial Bull then stomped its thick, black feet forward, shattering the space around it. Its figure flickered like a meteor streaking across the sky, vanishing in an instant at an incredible speed.
In the next instant, a War Axe materialized in its hand as it abruptly appeared before Gu Yun, letting out a roar that shook the very mountains:
“Die for Lord Niu!!”
Then, the axe cleaved through space, bringing with it immense Divine Power as it chopped down toward Gu Yun’s head!
“Is that all?”
Gu Yun’s expression was as placid as a still well, his eyes ice-cold as he watched the War Axe descend. It carried the unstoppable force of the Ninth Layer Celestial Mountain, cleaving through everything in its path.
The next instant, he executed the Three Thousand Roaming Dragon Steps. His body moved like a wandering dragon, fast as lightning, and his figure vanished on the spot.
“SHFFK!”
The War Axe in the Celestial Bull’s hand instantly shattered space, violently bisecting the afterimage Gu Yun had left behind.
Seeing Gu Yun’s figure destroyed by its blade, the Celestial Bull felt no joy. On the contrary, its expression grew grim and serious.
‘So fast!’
‘For a Tongxuan Realm Early Stage cultivator to have such speed…’
‘I knew it. Sending a mere Tongxuan Realm Early Stage Human Race expert to guard the Barrier… it was never going to be that simple.’
‘Still, I’m pure-blooded and my hide is thick. Someone with his level of Cultivation can’t possibly penetrate my defenses.’
‘The enemy is weak and I am strong. The advantage is mine!!’
At this thought, the corners of the Celestial Bull’s mouth curled into a slight smirk, as if victory were already assured.
High in the sky, space rippled, and a figure flashed into existence.
A murderous glint flashed in Gu Yun’s eyes as he stared down coldly at the Celestial Bull. A Heaven-Reaching Sword Intent erupted from his body, instantly shattering the surrounding space. In his palm materialized the Flame Soul Thunder Saber, its pale blue blade crackling with arcs of lightning.
“Eight Desolates Star Slash!”
Gu Yun slashed down fiercely. A torrent of Star Blade Qi, radiating an ancient aura, shot forth. The ultimate Sword Intent screamed through the heavens, carrying the whisper of a ‘Domain’s’ supreme Divine Power. It tore through layer after layer of space, descending to annihilate the Celestial Bull!
“Hm?!”
The Celestial Bull—suspended in mid-air, its stout body wreathed in terrifying ink-green Demon Qi—seemed to sense something. It looked up slightly and saw a blade of light that streaked across the world like a river of stars. It tore through space, descending upon it with an aura of absolute destruction.
Yet the Celestial Bull showed no signs of panic. ‘How strong can an attack from a mere Tongxuan Realm Early Stage cultivator even be?’ Of all the Demon Fiends the Demon Lord had stationed in the Silent Extinction Abyss, it was known for being the toughest. ‘An attack from someone with his level of Cultivation won’t even be able to breach my defenses!’
“Hmph. Courting death!” The Celestial Bull snorted, a cold glint flashing in its copper-bell eyes. The Demon Qi in its body churned as it swung its War Axe upward. A giant, ink-green crescent of light shot forth, crushing the air and carrying abyssal Demon Qi as it violently met the descending blade of light!
“BANG!!”
The giant, ink-green crescent and the river of starlight—the ultimate Sword Intent—collided. In that instant, a cataclysmic explosion erupted. A series of shockwaves, like ripples on the sea, spread out in all directions from the epicenter.
Wherever the shockwaves passed, space collapsed entirely, revealing a pitch-black abyss so dark you couldn’t see your hand in front of your face. Terrifying streams of chaotic energy surged forth like monstrous beasts, releasing a horrifying aura. At that moment, the entire world trembled violently!
The Celestial Bull watched the ink-green light and starlight clash in the heavens, bursting with the brilliance of fireworks. ‘He is fragile, and I am tough,’ it thought, its copper-bell pupils fixed on the spectacle. ‘In this battle, I will slaughter a Tongxuan Realm expert from the Human Race and avenge my fallen brothers!’
