Amidst the ruins, a murderous intent lingered.
Phoenix Emperor stared at Jiangnan, the Divine Phoenix Karma Fire on her body pulsating with her emotions.
Once her anger ignited, she's now like a powder keg ready to explode at any moment, teetering on the edge of madness.
Jiangnan knew very well that he had to seize the initiative before this crazy woman completely went berserk!
He looked up and glanced at the dark, lightless night sky.
Without the sun, the [Dragon God Imperial Armor] cannot be charged, and the true eighth and ninth levels cannot be opened at all.
To confront a Demigod in a state of rage under normal circumstances is tantamount to throwing an egg against a rock.
Fortunately, he still held a trump card from the underworld.
"Dusk," Jiangnan said coldly without turning around, "Expand your domain and take us up."
Dusk, who had been standing behind him the whole time, nodded blankly.
He raised his hands in front of his chest and made a sword-like gesture.
"The realm unfolds, Dusk Elegy!"
"Buzz!"
The moment the words left his mouth, Dusk's body transformed into countless points of light and vanished.
Immediately afterwards, this Spatial Law enveloped both Jiangnan and Phoenix Emperor simultaneously!
The next moment.
Heaven and earth turn upside down, the stars shift and the constellations move!
The scene before Jiangnan and Phoenix Emperor suddenly changed!
They were pulled directly into a strange space floating a thousand meters in the air!
The place was filled with a suffocating stillness and a dim, yellowish hue.
There was neither sky nor earth, only countless withered vines tightly entwined around the enormous old tree!
Several withered crows perched on the dry branches, cawing.
"Whoosh!"
The figure of Dusk appeared silently in the shadow of the withered tree, waving his hands without saying a word.
More than a dozen [spatial slashes], invisible to the naked eye, directly attacked the Phoenix Emperor!
Jiangnan Nan gripped the Godslayer Spear tightly in one hand, a violent glint in his eyes.
"Burn to Ash!"
The fuel he chose this time was none other than the Madman, the fifth seat of the Desolate God Society who had just been captured and imprisoned in the Human Emperor Lamp!
At the same time.
Inside the Human Emperor Lamp Great Love Factory, in the women's employee area.
"Da da da da da da!"
The sewing machine pedal was so heavily pressed that it almost sparked.
Ingrika was sweating profusely, her legs moving so fast they left afterimages, working under the supervision of head nurse Charlotte.
"Hurry up, newbie! You're so slow, I'll have those Confucian scholars give you a massage!"
Charlotte rebuked her sharply.
"Yes, yes, yes! Team leader! I'll stomp! I'll stomp as hard as I can!"
Ingrika stuck out her tongue, feeling completely bewildered and aggrieved.
"Didn't I get knocked unconscious by Phoenix Emperor's slap?"
"Am I dead? Where am I? Is this a textile factory in hell?!"
She had no idea that while she and Aeria were lying unconscious on the ground...
It was directly blasted into dust by the aftershocks of Jiangnan and Phoenix Emperor's earth-shattering battle.
Then, Human Emperor Lamp who happened to be passing by, casually grabbed him and used him as free labor.
Just then...
"Aaaaaaah!"
A howl suddenly came from the sky, followed by an unidentified object crashing to the ground.
This sudden turn of events startled all the employees, who immediately stopped what they were doing and rushed over.
Charlotte stood at the front, staring at the things on the ground, and was immediately stunned.
"What is this thing?"
In the pool of blood on the ground, there was a black, fleshy mass writhing.
Then, the black ball started cursing.
"Damn it! Useless! Not a single reliable teammate!"
"They're either traitors who betrayed me or deserters who ran away! I'm the only honest man who's risking my life!"
"You just wait! Wait until the Evil God I'm connected with senses me and recalls my soul!"
"I will definitely tear you bastards to pieces!!!"
This writhing black ball is the [Madman] that was sucked in!
However, strangely enough...
Perhaps because she was now just a pure soul, her voice had somehow transformed into a cute, girlish voice!
This makes it sound like she's whining even when she's swearing.
Charlotte walked forward expressionlessly and kicked the black ball, sending it flying three meters away.
"No matter who she is, once she enters our Great Love Factory, she's just a low-level employee! How dare she shout like that here?"
"Oops!"
The Madman cried out in surprise, then roared in fury, "You vile monster, how dare you kick me?!"
Charlotte raised an eyebrow upon hearing this. "Oh ho, she's pretty stubborn? Sisters, let's loosen her muscles!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than a group of employees, who had long been exploited and were seething with resentment, pounced on him.
No matter what you are, I'll just give you a full-body massage!
They just used their fists and shoe soles.
"Ouch! Don't hit me in the face! You lowly bastards, just you wait!"
The Madman screamed as he was beaten, but he kept spouting threats.
"I've signed a soul contract with the Evil God!"
Our souls are bound together!
"I've memorized your scent. One day, I'll slaughter you all!"
"Evil God?!"
Upon hearing those two words, the Confucian scholars trembled with fear.
The Evil God was a terrifying being they had learned about from ancient books since childhood; it was the source of all evil that had destroyed their homeland!
Upon seeing this, the Madman burst into triumphant laughter.
"Hahaha! Scared now? If you're scared, then kneel down and serve me properly..."
However, before she could finish speaking...
A surge of intense heat suddenly ignited from the deepest part of her soul!
"It's so hot... What's wrong?! It hurts!"
The Madman let out a scream.
"Stop! Stop! Don't burn my soul! No!!!"
Outside, within the realm of Dusk Elegy.
Jiangnan naturally couldn't hear the pitiful screams of the cute girl inside the Human Emperor Lamp.
He only felt a massive energy surging into his Godslayer Spear through the Human Emperor Lamp!
"These seats in the Desolate God Society are quite a good source of firewood."
Jiangnan gave a cold laugh.
"Snap! Snap!"
With the infusion of immense energy, the chains binding the Godslayer Spear Gun shattered, turning into crimson specks of light!
At the tip of the spear, a Sha Qi powerful enough to pierce through the stars erupted!
Jiangnan did not hesitate at all, coordinating with the overwhelming spatial slash of Dusk.
It transformed into a dark red meteor and launched an attack directly towards the Phoenix Emperor!
He already had a complete plan in mind to defeat this crazy woman, but now, all he needed was a spark!
Just as their attacks were about to land.
Rage finally completely consumed Phoenix Emperor's reason!
Her aura surged, she became completely insane!
"Hahahaha! Is this your strategy?!"
Phoenix Emperor laughed wildly, "Force this guy to deploy his domain and pull the battlefield a thousand meters into the air?"
"Are you still thinking of deliberately provoking me, hoping my attack will send you flying tens of thousands of meters into the stratosphere?!"
"Once you get through these damn clouds, you'll see the sun!"
"So you think you can use that damned dragon armor of yours to absorb solar energy and become my enemy?!"
The Phoenix Emperor thought See Through everything.
"But I'm sorry... I will absolutely not give you that chance!"
"Boom!"
The White Flame Battle Armor burst forth with brilliance, and those [Spatial Slashes] were instantly incinerated into Void the moment they came into contact with the Hellfire!
"You are going to die today!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Phoenix Emperor completely abandoned his defense, gripped the White Flame Warblade tightly, and slashed down at Jiangnan's spear tip!
Seeing Phoenix Emperor's arrogant and confident demeanor, Jiangnan raised an eyebrow.
He was indeed somewhat shocked that the Phoenix Emperor had such a thorough understanding of the hidden mechanisms of the Dragon God Imperial Armor.
They could even guess the slick move of "using someone else's strength to get to the top and see the sun."
But that's not the key point at all!
Because his real killer plan wasn't sunbathing at all!
Die!
Instead of retreating, Jiangnan advanced, unleashing all the power from his remaining left arm, Godslayer Spear, carrying the [Burn to Ash], charged forward!
"Clang!!!"
The tips of knives and spears collided in the deathly silence of a thousand meters in the air!
The terrifying energy ripples instantly pulverized the surrounding withered trees and crows!
Seeing the swords and spears locked together, Phoenix Emperor let out a mocking laugh.
"Trying to withstand my Hellfire with physical weapons?"
"Jiangnan, are you planning to turn this piece of junk into dust?!"
"Let me tell you the truth! The Hellfire doesn't burn with temperature, it burns with cause and effect!"
Everything in this world that has a beginning and an end will be burned to ashes!
"Your gun is destined..."
"Oh, really?"
Jiangnan suddenly chuckled, directly interrupting the Phoenix Emperor's pronouncement.
He raised his eyes and asked, enunciating each word clearly, "Then I should ask..."
"Your proud, worthless fire, can it burn... a true god?"
"What?!"
Phoenix Emperor felt a sudden jolt, and an uneasy premonition swept through her entire body.
She instinctively looked down at the point where the knife and gun tips collided!
The next second, her face was filled with disbelief, as if she had seen a ghost!
Beneath her [Hellfire], which she claimed could burn away all karma, Jiangnan's seemingly unremarkable dark red broken spear was revealed!
Instead of showing any signs of melting, it unleashed an aura surpassing that of a Demigod!
"Snap!"
A cracking sound rang out!
Before the Phoenix Emperor's horrified gaze, the tip of the Godslayer Spear actually...
It pierced through the laws of Hellfire!
The white flames were torn apart by the spear tip, and the spear's momentum did not diminish, heading straight for her heart!
"Damn it! It's that gun!"
In dire straits, the ghostly flames in Phoenix Emperor's eye sockets contracted, and she activated the [Heaven-Peering Mirror] hidden deep within her sea of consciousness!
"Buzz!"
Space distortion.
Just as the Godslayer Spear was about to pierce her, the Phoenix Emperor's figure vanished from the spot, dodging the fatal blow!
100 meters away.
The void cracked open, Phoenix Emperor fell out in a sorry state.
She stared at the dark red spear in Jiangnan's hand, her eyes filled with horror.
Then, this shock quickly turned into a furious rage at being betrayed!
"The Godslayer Spear... it's actually the Godslayer Spear!!!"
"It's that guy's Spirit Artifact!"
"He actually gave this to you?!"
"Plus, Dragon God Emperor Armor..."
"You... you all conspired to lie to me from the very beginning!!!"
Phoenix Emperor felt that her thousand-year wait was a huge joke.
They were completely manipulated by these two!
"Since that's the case... then you all should die!!!"
"After I kill you today, I'll settle the score with him!"
Phoenix Emperor abandoned all reason and testing.
"The realm expands, World as Prison!!!"
Rumble!
The Dusk Elegy Dusk, composed of withered old trees and crows, began to tremble violently.
Above the heavens: Rock! Fire! Ice!
Three elements rose from the ground, transforming into a storm, intending to destroy the realm of Dusk!
But at that moment, with a glance from Jiangnan, Dusk voluntarily released his domain!
"Crack! Bang!"
The domain collapsed with a roar!
Jiangnan and Dusk, having lost their levitation laws, were exposed to the raging winds thousands of meters above the ground and plummeted downwards!
And above their heads, the tri-colored elemental storm of [the World as Prison] was directly looming over them!
Faced with this certain death, Jiangnan, who was in freefall, revealed a smile.
"Finally... they forced him to resort to this tactic."
He hadn't used his strongest trump card yet, waiting for Phoenix Emperor to unleash this ultimate attack!
Jiangnan held his left hand up in front of him, palm facing upwards.
In the name of light!
Buzz!!!
The instant those four words were uttered, a barrier of light opened up, centered on Jiangnan!
Even the black ice that freezes the soul!
Or perhaps it's the Hellfire that Burn to Ash all cause and effect!
Or perhaps it was the land that transformed into a rock dragon!
The moment they touched this barrier of light, they were all blocked three feet away, unable to advance even an inch further!
Within the barrier of light, a dazzling white light, a million times brighter than the sun, erupted from Jiangnan's hand!
"To gather all things into light!"
At this moment, heaven and earth fell silent!
Phoenix Emperor's [World as Prison] domain suddenly seems to have encountered a natural enemy!
Rocks! Flames! Black ice!
The moment it approached Jiangnan, it forcibly stripped away its original attributes and completely Disintegration!
It was converted into white light energy!
Surging towards the palm of Jiangnan!
"Conquer all colors and turn them white!"
The world is converging on him!
The colors are disappearing!
The night sky is no longer dark, the Hellfire is no longer crimson, and the black ice has lost its profundity.
Above the sky, only a blinding pure white remained!
"Light?! Sequence 08's [Light]?!"
The Phoenix Emperor, which was originally in a rage, looked at the light that stole all the colors from the world.
Instead of feeling fear, he burst into morbid laughter.
"Hahaha! You actually possess the element of light?!"
The Phoenix Emperor danced wildly in mid-air like a madwoman, its laughter maniacal.
"Good! Excellent! I'll kill you! With this, I can truly become a god!"
"That's killing two birds with one stone!"
Jiangnan ignored him completely and continued singing.
"Condensed in my hand, formed from the palm!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The three-colored elemental energy released by the Phoenix Emperor was completely converted into light energy and forcibly compressed into Jiangnan's palm!
The energy density has reached a critical value!
Fine beads of blood began to seep from Jiangnan's entire body!
But he gritted his teeth and compressed that devastating energy into a small ball the size of a fist!
Phoenix Emperor looked at the unstable little ball in Jiangnan's hand. Instead of dodging, it became even more unrestrained.
"Such enormous and violent energy has been forcibly compressed to a critical point!"
"Your broken body has no chance of throwing it out before it explodes! It will just be blown to bits!"
Phoenix Emperor spreads its arms wide. "Do you want to perish together with me?!"
"Come! Let this sacred light be the witness to our souls becoming one!!!"
However, faced with Phoenix Emperor's morbid madness, Jiangnan's lips curled upwards.
"Wait, it's not over yet!"
"Dusk!" Jiangnan shouted sharply.
As Dusk was falling, he immediately used his spatial Supernatural Ability to place his hand on Jiangnan's shoulder.
"Whoosh!"
Space displacement activated!
But Dusk did not take Jiangnan with it as it fled.
Before anyone could react, Jiangnan and Dusk's figures teleported right in front of Phoenix Emperor's face!
The two were less than half a meter apart!
They can even see the different emotions in each other's eyes!
The next second, Jiangnan used all his strength to utter the last sentence!
"The critical point has been reached; the final bloom is here!!!"
"Snap!"
The moment the Word Spirit ended, the barrier of light protecting Jiangnan shattered!
The small sphere, which had gathered destructive energy, broke free from its Suppression and began an irreversible explosion!
Phoenix Emperor's maniacal smile froze on her face.
She never imagined that Jiangnan would dare to bring this about-to-explode nuclear bomb and jump right in front of her face!
"You bastard..."
The will-o'-the-wisps in the Phoenix Emperor's eye sockets contracted.
Jiangnan didn't give her any time to react at all. He casually tossed the white ball into front of the Phoenix Emperor's skull chest.
Here you go.
The moment the words left his mouth!
"Buzz!"
Dusk activated his spatial Supernatural Ability again, blurring their figures as they instantly teleported to the ground!
The Phoenix Emperor remained where it was.
Standing alone a thousand meters in the air, holding that small ball in her arms.
"Jiangnan!"
That was a moment without any sound.
Immediately afterwards.
Thousands of meters above the ground, the polar night sky was forcibly torn apart.
A massive white sphere of light suddenly expanded in the sky above Soul Return Town!
There was no rolling flame, no spreading black ice, only the purest light!
The light illuminated the entire Weird Island as if it were daytime, and even the clouds were instantly evaporated into Void!
Then, the belated sonic boom finally exploded!
"Boom!!"
In this devastating burst of light, comparable to Supernova explosion, everything was being silently Annihilation.
This is the absolute majesty of the elemental king, this is the light that blooms a thousand meters above the sky...
The Final Scene!
