Luohu spoke in a low voice, his demonic tones rumbling like heavenly drums. "Long Zang, today you will die."
Before his words had even faded, the Great Freedom Heavenly Demon's Dharma Image appeared, wielding a Slaughter Blade as it struck at Long Zang.
Boundless demonic energy surged. The World-Ending Millstone hovered above the Celestial Vault, and wherever its dark light passed, everything was annihilated!
Long Zang's long hair whipped in the wind, his gaze sharp as a blade. His War Halberd spanned the sky.
Destruction intertwined with the Yin Yang Great Dao. He swung his halberd, shattering the demonic image and meeting the power of annihilation head-on!
The Star River collapsed, and all worlds trembled. The clash between three Sublime Saints had turned Outer Heaven into a hellish Shura Field.
Across Outer Heaven, the sounds of slaughter thundered as Destruction intertwined with Eternity.
Long Zang shook his War Halberd, shattering the Great Demonic Dharma Image outright.
Luohu, however, wasn't surprised. He had grown used to it... Every clash ended much the same way. He had long since realized just how terrifying Long Zang was.
"Ancestor Dragon, now's no time to stand there in a daze."
Luohu reminded him coldly as the World-Ending Millstone appeared above his head.
In the next instant, its dark light surged, and the power of annihilation swept forth. Everything in its path was utterly erased.
Long Zang let out a long roar, his divine nature surging. "Heaven cannot destroy me, earth cannot bury me. May Eternity across all the heavens be mine!"
Boundless Eternal Light burst from within him, illuminating all worlds.
The pitch-black World-Ending Divine Light collided head-on with the Eternal Light, setting off a dazzling bloom of Great Dao Flowers.
Ancestor Dragon roared, "True Dragon Sky-Conquering Technique!"
A vast True Dragon roared toward him, and the Star River collapsed.
Long Zang reached out and crushed the dragon in his palm. It went out like a firework.
"What has passed will pass. The eternal heavens will inevitably be extinguished. The only constant is eternal Destruction! Eternal Heavens Great Annihilation!"
Demonic tones echoed as Destruction descended. All worlds crumbled, countless gods fell, and heaven and earth sank into deathly silence.
Ancestor Dragon's body shattered, and his soul decayed and sank into ruin.
Luohu's body was cleaved in two, Destruction devouring his essence.
Only Long Zang stood atop all worlds, his long hair whipping in the wind, majestic and indestructible, like the eternal Dominator of Destruction.
"All Daos resound, yet only my Devil Dao reigns. May the Devil Dao flourish forever!"
Luohu roared, unleashing the power of his Demonic Nature. It surged like Primordial Darkness, holding back Destruction.
Ancestor Dragon's voice rang through the void as well. "The True Dragon is immortal! True Dragon Indestructible Body, form!"
His True Dragon body reassembled, emerging from annihilation.
Long Zang's gaze was icy as he said flatly, "Not quite enough."
That supreme divine might made him seem like an eternal King of Gods, looking down across the ages.
"World-Ending Millstone, annihilate the Three Thousand Worlds!"
Luohu activated the World-Ending Millstone, and the phantom images of the Three Thousand Worlds crumbled.
Long Zang's expression was stern, divine light surging around him. "The heavens may perish, but I will not! The ages may decay, but I will not! I shall endure forever!"
His voice rolled like a heavenly sound, imbued with the majesty of the Great Dao.
Indestructible divinity flowed through him. He stood unshaken as all worlds cycled through Reincarnation, the sole being to endure forever!
"You two aren't good enough!"
Killing intent erupted from Long Zang. His War Halberd swept across Outer Heaven as worlds rose and fell in Illusionary Annihilation, and Immortals and Gods spilled blood.
His halberd fell, and Ancestor Dragon and Luohu's bodies shattered at the same time!
Fury surged in Long Zang's eyes. "Yin-Yang Chaos!"
Space-Time collapsed, and an awesome force swept through everything as it reversed.
Luohu's figure reformed, his face pale.
Ancestor Dragon was terribly weak, on the verge of disintegrating.
They both understood that Long Zang had long since surpassed the realm of a Sublime Saint.
"Inner Demon power, Formless and Shapeless! Die!!!"
Luohu roared. The ancient demonic tones shook all worlds as the power of the Inner Demon crashed relentlessly into Long Zang.
But Long Zang remained expressionless, his voice cold. "The power of the Inner Demon? It's useless against me."
His essence had long since become indestructible, leaving no soul for it to shake. To affect him, they first had to break his immortal body.
His War Halberd swept out again, forcing Luohu to dodge in a sorry state.
Long Zang taunted him coldly. "You look pathetic, Luohu!"
Burning with rage, Luohu shouted, "Immortal Slaying Sword Formation!"
All four swords emerged, and the ancient formation spanned the sky. Ancestor Dragon and Luohu both stepped into the formation.
Boundless Chaos sword energy swept across heaven and earth, turning into a mighty river of blades.
Long Zang's divine nature was indestructible. Eternal Light crisscrossed around him, shattering the sword energy one streak after another.
"It's useless!" he said coldly, stepping into the formation without the slightest fear.
The Immortal Slaying sword energy whirled wildly, leaving fine cracks in Long Zang's flesh.
But the next moment, the cracks vanished. Instead, he sat cross-legged within the formation and began devouring its Killing Qi and sword energy, turning everything into nourishment!
Ancestor Dragon stared in shock, while Luohu's expression darkened.
Long Zang's Demonic Body was built upon the Devouring Great Dao.
Killing Qi, resentment, and sword energy were poison in anyone else's eyes, but in his, they became both tempering and nourishment!
As time passed, Long Zang seemed to be cultivating inside the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.
"Great Dao Furnace!"
A crimson furnace appeared, devouring everything around it.
The sword formation couldn't trap him, but he wasn't in a hurry to break out. Instead, he used the chance to temper himself.
This deadly trap, which should have killed him, had been turned into a place of cultivation!
War had raged across the Primordial Continent for hundreds of thousands of years.
The Dragon Clan, Qilin Clan, Phoenix Clan, and Ferocious Beast Clan fought without end, and countless gods and demons perished on the battlefield.
Blood flowed like rivers, staining heaven and earth red. Resentment surged into the skies, turning the entire land into a deathly forbidden zone.
In Outer Heaven, Long Zang remained trapped in the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.
Hundreds of thousands of years were but a blink to Long Zang, but for the living beings of the Primordial World, they were an endless torment.
Luohu couldn't hold him back alone while maintaining the formation, and Ancestor Dragon couldn't spare a hand to help.
Long Zang, on the other hand, felt he'd gotten the better end of the deal... He had held off two Sublime Saints by himself. That was something to be proud of.
Outside the formation, Ancestor Dragon and Luohu were discussing the situation.
"His body is practically no different from that of a Chaos Demon God. What should we do?" Ancestor Dragon asked gravely.
Luohu furrowed his brow. "That's why I don't want to provoke him. He can't be killed, he's absurdly tough, and he commands all manner of terrifying Divine Abilities."
Ancestor Dragon's expression darkened.
Luohu continued, "He was born without a primordial spirit. That should be a weakness. Should we try sealing him?"
Ancestor Dragon shook his head. "Seal him? Have you forgotten the conditions? We can only do it when the other party has exhausted their divine power. But a Sublime Saint's divine power is endless. Exhaust it? Dream on!"
Both of them were helpless.
Long Zang was like a red-hot potato: they couldn't bear to throw him away, but holding on burned their hands.
All they could do was remain locked in this stalemate.
Meanwhile, First Kirin and Yuan Huang's battle had also become a drawn-out deadlock.
Neither could do anything to the other.
The entire Primordial World's situation had come to a standstill.
Elsewhere, deep within a Divine Mountain, the Three Heavens were secluded in their place of cultivation.
Ever since the Heavenly Dao Alliance had been destroyed, the Three Heavens had been cultivating in seclusion, but they had yet to break through.
Ancestor Dragon's overwhelming strength had nearly become their Inner Demon.
More importantly, they shared the same origin. At their core, they were "one divided into three."
With their essence scattered, their path grew harder with every step.
That was why they could merge into the First Heaven, yet still couldn't enter the realm of a Sublime Saint.
Yellow Heaven left his cave alone, his expression troubled.
"Without enough essence, how difficult a breakthrough is." He looked up at the stars, his gaze complicated, while resentment burned in his heart.
The humiliation of that battle kept echoing through his mind.
The shame of being trampled under Ancestor Dragon's feet was something he could never accept!
Azure Heaven was cold, Cyan Heaven was irritable, and Yellow Heaven was the proudest of the Three Heavens.
He couldn't let go of his defeat to Ancestor Dragon.
In his heart, he was the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao and should have looked down upon all races.
But reality had cast him down into the dust.
"If my essence is lacking, then I'll replenish it!"
A blood-red glint flashed in Yellow Heaven's eyes as an Inner Demon slowly took root.
The Great Calamity's Qi had been subtly influencing him. His stubborn nature finally drove him completely mad.
At last, his gaze turned toward Azure Heaven's cave.
"It's time to return completely to one..."
He murmured, burning obsession in his eyes.
"Ancestor Dragon! One day, I will grind you underfoot!"
