Chapter 321
Then, she lifted her foot and took a step.
Most of the Siming Mountain Range shook as if the sky had collapsed.
Click, click!
Beneath Xiao Minghuang's feet, mountains and earth shattered and turned into endless dust, and her entire body exuded an endless, terrifying pressure.
"Further words are pointless; let's settle this once and for all!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Minghuang took a step forward, sword in hand. In an instant, day and night were reversed, the world was plunged into darkness, and a dazzling starry sky appeared, illuminating the heavens and covering all directions.
Bathed in starlight, Xiao Minghuang seemed to be clad in starlight armor, exuding a sharp and murderous aura, like an unparalleled empress descending to earth, her every move possessing the power to suppress the universe.
"Kill!"
As the stars swirled, a dazzling sword light tore through the heavens and earth, slashing towards that towering figure.
Stop dreaming! No matter how powerful you are, you can't overcome the Power of All Beings!
Faced with the attack, the Daoist Siming remained expressionless, let out a cold shout, and suddenly unleashed a monstrous aura.
This time, his entire body shone even more brightly, with Rosy Clouds bursting forth like divine flames, burning the heavens and earth.
His fist was engulfed in boundless flames, which transformed into a raging torrent of fire that clashed with the sword light.
Bang bang bang!
The collisions were relentless, shaking the heavens and earth as if they were clashing, creating mushroom clouds one after another.
The intensity of the fluctuations was unimaginable; even cities thousands of miles away were affected, with city walls collapsing and houses falling in droves.
Many cultivators suffered under this fluctuation, coughing up blood and flying backward.
If it weren't for the great distance, the towering city walls, and the protective array that blocked these ripples, it's likely that not only a portion of the city walls would have collapsed, but all the people inside the city would have died on the spot.
"What terrifying power!"
Some of the cultivators couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines.
"Damn old geezers, when they fight, we get caught in the crossfire!"
"Stop talking! If that capricious old man finds out, we'll be dead too..."
Several monks complained.
The earth-shattering aftershocks continued to spread, and the battle raged on.
Mushroom clouds exploded one after another, like fireworks bursting forth, magnificent and dazzling.
The sight sent chills down the spines of all the cultivators, making their scalps tingle.
Even though they were thousands of miles away, a terrifying force swept over them, making their hearts pound and their breathing difficult.
The void trembled, and the earth collapsed.
The two crisscrossed in the void, fighting each other fiercely. Sword lights and magic seals collided violently, causing the void to shatter and the Great Dao to be constantly reassembled, but even that could not keep up with the speed of their destruction.
The Daoist Siming's face was full of solemnity.
He hadn't expected that, despite his all-out effort, Xiao Minghuang could actually fight him to a standstill.
In fact, they are gradually showing a trend of becoming stronger with each battle!
423. The situation reversed.
Xiao Minghuang is indeed as unbelievable as the rumors suggest.
"She is without a doubt the one who tolled the Epochal Annihilation. I must eliminate her, no matter the cost!"
The Daoist Siming's eyes burned with intense killing intent.
Suddenly, a golden sun rose behind his head, showering down billions of divine lights, and a vast and sacred wave spread out, sweeping forward.
"Um?"
Xiao Minghuang's expression changed slightly, as she felt that two-thirds of her internal energy had been sealed off by an invisible force.
"The yang energy of all beings' wishes can suppress all delusions in the world."
The Daoist Siming said calmly, "Princess Xiao, did you feel your magical power being restrained? This indicates that your delusions are too strong and your mind is in turmoil, which is why you have lost control!"
"Heh! You always think that the Power of All Beings is omnipotent, but in reality, this is just you deceiving the masses."
Xiao Minghuang snorted coldly, "Besides, I have never relied on the collective efforts of the masses to get to where I am today!"
The words had barely left his mouth.
She raised her hand and clenched it in the air, and a sword shimmering with stars appeared in her hand, giving her complete control over the great principles of the world.
"Primordial Beginning, Myriad Transformations Renewed!"
Xiao Minghuang shouted and swung the sword in his hand. In an instant, the void twisted, and countless starlight gathered on the longsword, causing its power to surge. The sword light was so sharp that it seemed to be able to pierce the sky.
"The Primordial Beginning..."
The Daoist Siming lightly flicked his whisk. This was the second time he had seen Xiao Minghuang use this divine power, but even with his keen eyesight, he couldn't see through how many Dao principles were mixed into this divine power.
In an instant, Xiao Minghuang wielded the One Yuan Sword and slashed down. Instantly, starlight shone brightly, and countless stars fell. Each star contained a Great Dao Power, carrying an aura that could suppress the heavens and the ten directions, and crashed towards the Daoist Siming.
"Unable to become a supreme being, one is ultimately just an ant!"
The Daoist Siming remained confident, sitting atop the nine-tiered palace, surrounded by the immense and tangible Power of All Beings. Unfazed by the sword light, he pressed down on Xiao Minghuang.
With a deafening roar, the starlight vanished, and countless brilliant stars exploded, transforming into dazzling bursts of light.
The Daoist Siming's body was immortal, as immovable as a rock.
Divine Fire burned fiercely on his body, and the wisps of light seemed capable of igniting the heavens and burning away all things in the universe.
At that very moment.
Amidst the dazzling and chaotic starlight, a single point of purple light instantly broke through all obstacles, heading straight for the face of the Daoist Siming.
This purple light, moving at incredible speed, was none other than the Chaos Bead.
The Daoist Siming sneered, "The same old trick again. Have you run out of ideas?"
Immediately, he threw out the whisk, which shook violently mid-air, and strands of silvery-white silk fell down, entangled the Chaos Bead that was shooting towards him like a spider web.
"Hmph! Once I've taken your Chaos Bead, let's see what tricks you have up your sleeve!"
The Daoist Siming snorted coldly, then formed a hand seal, manipulating his whisk to entangle the Chaos Bead, intending to pull it back into his palm.
However, the Chaos Bead struggled in the air, spinning up and down, and instead of being bound by the whisk, it dragged the whisk away to fly in a more distant direction.
Upon seeing this, the Daoist Siming became impatient and, on a whim, prepared to give chase.
However, at that moment, a jade bracelet suddenly appeared from the void and smashed down toward the back of the Daoist Siming's head.
A melodious and deep sound reverberated throughout the surrounding area. The Daoist Siming felt his Purple Mansion tremble, his magical power surged, and he staggered a step.
"What kind of magic weapon?"
His face showed shock and anger, and he roared, immediately turning his head to look.
"This is..."
On the jade bracelet, densely packed, mysterious runes were engraved, and rings of light enveloped the surroundings, resembling a small domain.
But what surprised him even more was that he saw his own body falling from the sky at an extremely fast speed.
"My body..."
The Daoist Siming suddenly raised his hand, his face filled with disbelief.
At this moment, he finally realized that he only had a Primordial Spirit left!
That attack just now actually forced his Primordial Spirit out of his physical body!
"You little brat, you're asking for it!"
The Daoist Siming, his eyes blazing with fury, was enraged.
At this moment, the Daoist Siming tore off all his pretenses; beneath his ferocious and savage face lay endless killing intent and resentment.
He, an immortal supreme being, who has witnessed the rise and fall of time for hundreds of thousands of years, has now been brought down by a mere naive young girl!
"I want you dead!"
The Daoist Siming roared and then quickly flew towards the ground, intending to retrieve his physical body first.
However, how could Xiao Minghuang possibly give him that opportunity?
"Azure sea and blue sky! Lock!"
Following the incantation taught to her by the Innate Osmanthus, Xiao Minghuang manipulated the Azure Sea Jade Bracelet, which suddenly pierced through the void and directly encircled the neck of the Daoist Siming Primordial Spirit, pulling him back from the sky once again.
As he watched the distance between himself and his physical body grow ever greater, Daoist Siming felt a profound sense of crisis.
Could it be that he is truly in danger of perishing today?
"You won't be able to trap me!"
The Daoist Siming was furious.
However, as he began to struggle, ripples spread across the bracelet, tightening its grip until he could no longer move an inch, not even a finger.
Even his thinking became sluggish, as if he were stuck in a quagmire.
"What... what kind of magical artifact is this?!"
The Daoist Siming was utterly horrified.
"This is none of your business!"
Xiao Minghuang flashed, appearing from the distant horizon in front of him.
"Princess Xiao, I admit defeat. Could you please spare my life? I will obey your every command in the future!"
The Daoist Siming, breathless and appearing weak, pleaded.
Do you think I'm a three-year-old?
Xiao Minghuang smiled coldly, then the One Yuan Sword appeared in her hand, and she walked step by step toward the Daoist Siming.
"Ah--You've gone too far!"
The Daoist Siming roared in anger and struggled desperately, but the ripples tightened more and more, almost severing his Primordial Spirit!
"I'll fight you to the death!"
Suddenly, the Daoist Siming flew into a rage, his eyes turning bloodshot. He roared madly, channeling all his magical power. The supreme laws surged, and a golden flame suddenly ignited around his illusory Primordial Spirit. It instantly expanded and transformed into a blazing sun hanging in the sky, unleashing a world-destroying aura!
Rumble~
The terrifying golden flames burned fiercely, the supreme law of the Daoist Siming was burning, and it actually forced a gap open in the bracelet. Then, he took advantage of the situation to fly out, escape the confinement range of the Azure Sea Jade Bracelet, and disappear into the horizon!
424. A smile hiding a dagger
"Huh? Trying to run away!"
Xiao Minghuang flipped his hand, first storing the physical body of the Daoist Siming and his whisk into his Purple Mansion, then, with the power of the void surging, he held the Azure Sea Jade Bracelet and quickly chased after him.
Swish!
Two streaks of light pierced the sky, one chasing and the other fleeing, and soon entered the vast cloud layer, their speed soaring to its peak.
Hoo hoo hoo~
Clouds and mist filled the air, obscuring the sky. The vast, dark sky was deep and gloomy, inspiring fear in all who beheld it.
