Longevity Sect, Cloudsea Main Peak.
War flames scorched the heavens, while shattered spatial rifts continuously spilled blinding divine light. Douluo Continent was devastated, its mountains and rivers torn apart, blood soaking every inch of soil.
Li Xuan stood quietly in white, looking down indifferently upon the brutal battlefield.
The system data was neatly listed, cold and blunt.
[Current Shock Points balance: 200,400,000.] [Battlefield situation: Three gods are holding back four Main Gods. The allied army has suffered grievous casualties, while the God Army advances step by step.] [Enemy forces remaining: Kindness God, Destruction God, and two Supreme Gods have yet to act.] [Myriad Realms reinforcements: The first echelon is about to complete planar transmission.]
Since the million-strong God Army had entered Douluo Continent, the slaughter had never ceased.
The Divine Realm's soldiers feared no death, their divine armor was hard and indestructible, and their divine light purified all things.
Even though Bo Saixi, Tang Chen, and Bibi Dong had become native True Gods, and even though Qian Renxue and Di Tian risked their lives to stop them, they still could not halt the God Army's advance.
Mortal flesh could never withstand sacred weapons.
Soul Beast corpses lay piled across the land.
Sect powerhouses, imperial soldiers, and reclusive cultivators fell in droves, their blood staining the skies.
Above the void.
Kindness God wore a pure white divine robe. Her face was gentle, yet there was not the slightest trace of mercy in her eyes.
She quietly watched the slaughter below and spoke in a calm, indifferent tone. "Lowly creatures daring to rebel against gods is itself a defiance of heaven. Destruction is your final destination."
Beside her, black mist churned around Destruction God, and a cruel smile spread across his face.
"Wait a little longer. Once these rebels exhaust their strength and divine power, the two of us can act and erase all of Douluo in an instant."
Among the seven Supreme Gods, only these two had remained coldly aloof.
They disdained acting early. In the eyes of gods, this campaign was merely a clean and efficient game of slaughter.
Just as the gods of the Divine Realm had concluded that the battle was decided and Douluo was doomed.
Bzzzz—!
At the highest reaches of the sky, the vast void shook violently.
A boundless black spatial hole suddenly formed, stretching across ten thousand miles of cloud sea.
Unlike the pale white rifts of the Divine Realm, this opening exuded an ancient, desolate, chaotic, and sharp unfamiliar aura.
The dark Sky Screen instantly lit up, projecting the anomaly in the void to every corner of the continent.
Silver words appeared solemnly upon the black Sky Screen.
[Myriad Realms Passage opened!] [The Longevity Authority draws upon the heavens. Reinforcements from beyond the realm cross planes and descend upon Douluo!] [First reinforcement: Sole Sword Sovereign, Slay Gods, Shatter Illusions!]
The cold narration echoed through heaven and earth. Everyone locked in battle instinctively halted, their eyes fixed upon the black hole in the sky.
The next second.
A slender figure in black stepped through Chaos and emerged alone from the spatial passage.
His black hair was casually tied back, and his plain black robes bore no ornament. An ancient black sword rested upon his back. There was no divine light beneath his feet, no oppressive aura, no magnificent decoration—only a detached, solitary indifference that seemed to look down upon all ages.
Though he was merely a simple figure, the divine might across the entire battlefield instantly froze.
Above the void, Kindness God's brows abruptly furrowed, and the pure white divine light around her fluctuated violently.
"A being from another plane? Interfering in a lower-realm war in violation of the rules?!"
The black mist around Destruction God surged, and gravity appeared in his eyes for the first time. "This sword intent... it exists to slay the sacred and destroy illusions!"
The newcomer's gaze was indifferent as he swept it across the God Army filling the skies, then across the gods standing high above.
There were no unnecessary words, only a casual murmur that resounded through the heavens.
"Gods are hypocritical, lofty and untouchable."
"Today, with one sword, I will shatter all divine illusions."
Clang—!
A crisp sword cry tore through the clouds and shattered the sacred radiance filling the sky.
The ancient black sword slowly left its sheath, and a streak of black sword light cut across the boundless heavens.
There was no exaggerated explosion, no terrifying shockwave, no dazzling phenomenon.
Only a simple, clean, straight slash.
Yet within that slash lay supreme sword intent capable of destroying all illusions and severing all holiness in the world.
The bodies of several thousand God Army soldiers at the front instantly stiffened. Their hard divine armor silently shattered, and their sacred souls were directly annihilated.
There was no resistance, no wailing, no trace left behind.
Several thousand Divine Realm soldiers were wiped out by a single sword strike.
Boom!
The entire continent shuddered violently.
The Douluo Allied Army, still fighting desperately, all froze as they stared blankly at the black-clad figure.
One sword had erased several thousand God Army soldiers?
Those were sacred divine armors that even Titled Douluo found difficult to break!
Above the void.
Sea God, Asura God, and Angel God's expressions changed drastically, and they instinctively stepped half a pace back.
That streak of black sword light was innately hostile to gods, carrying terrifying power that erased divinity itself.
"Impossible! How could a Lower Plane possess such an expert?!" Angel God cried out in shock, panic filling her holy face for the first time.
The Black-Robed Swordsman remained expressionless and lightly flicked his wrist.
A second streak of black sword light ripped through the heavens and slashed directly at the core of the Divine Realm's army formation.
The sacred divine formation formed by three thousand divine generals crumbled layer by layer beneath the sword light like thin paper.
Dozens of Demigod generals had no time to evade. Their divine bodies were torn apart, their souls scattered, and they perished on the spot.
Blood rained down from the sky as sacred radiance dimmed and faded.
Since the birth of the Divine Realm, no one had ever slaughtered a regular God Army so easily and so decisively.
"Stop him!"
Kindness God finally shed her gentle disguise. Pure white divine power soared into the heavens, and countless rays of holy light condensed into a defensive barrier before the God Army.
As one of the rulers of the God Realm Committee, she would never allow an outsider to slaughter the God Army without restraint.
The holy light shield covered the heavens, containing the three divine laws of purification, sealing, and confinement.
Even a full-force strike from a Main God could not instantly break through this defense.
The Black-Robed Swordsman's expression did not change as he pointed his black sword directly at the light shield.
The third sword fell silently.
Crack—
A crisp shattering sound rang through heaven and earth.
The indestructible holy light shield became covered in cracks like glass before exploding apart.
The remaining sword light did not weaken as it slashed straight toward the horrified Kindness God.
Kindness God's pupils contracted sharply. She hastily mobilized her source divine power to protect herself, but her pure white divine robe was torn apart by sword energy, and golden Divine Blood seeped from her shoulder.
A Supreme God had been injured!
The entire battlefield fell deathly silent.
An unknown outsider had used three swords to kill several thousand divine soldiers, destroy a divine formation, and severely wound the Supreme Kindness God.
This scene shattered the pride of every god and broke the eternal oppression of divine authority.
"Gods... are not invincible."
No one knew who murmured it, but the words spread across the entire continent.
In the lifeless eyes of the Douluo Allied Army, which had been on the brink of despair, blazing fighting spirit ignited once more.
Bo Saixi's Azure Sea Divine Power surged wildly as waves swept through the sky, ruthlessly crushing the remnants of Sea God's forces.
Tang Chen's Clear Sky Divine Hammer blasted apart the void. Its tyrannical hammer intent faced Asura God directly, without the slightest fear remaining.
Bibi Dong's Netherworld Divine Chains crisscrossed the battlefield, madly strangling the scattered Divine Realm soldiers.
With reinforcements at their backs, all living beings no longer despaired.
If an outsider could slay gods, then they too could defy heaven.
Within a remote forest.
Tang San stared blankly at the lone black figure in the sky, his heart filled with bitterness.
An outsider was willing to draw his sword and slay gods for the people of Douluo.
Yet Tang San had been born on this land and raised upon this continent. He had been blessed with countless opportunities and possessed great abilities, but all he knew was plunder, schemes, and dependence upon gods.
The difference between them was as vast as heaven and earth.
Endless regret completely drowned his mind. His knees went weak, and he fell heavily to the ground.
"I was wrong... I was truly wrong..."
Xiao Wu stood quietly in the field, her cool gaze resting upon the Black-Robed Swordsman. A faint light appeared in her eyes.
This suffering continent had finally awaited salvation.
[Ding! Reinforcements from the Myriad Realms have appeared. The gods have suffered severe injuries!] [Shock Points gained: +9,700,000!] [Hope Points gained: +8,500,000!] [Current Shock Points balance: 218,600,000!] [Second-echelon reinforcements unsealed. Arrival imminent!]
Longevity Sect, Cloudsea Hall.
Li Xuan quietly watched the black-clad figure's back, his expression calm and unruffled.
Sole Sword Sovereign, Slay Gods, Shatter Illusions.
He was merely the first of the Myriad Realms reinforcements.
The Divine Realm relied upon its million-strong God Army, while its seven Main Gods were arrogant and overbearing.
But before the myriad heavens, it was nothing more than a tiny Divine Court in one corner.
"Kindness God is injured. The gods are alarmed."
Li Xuan murmured softly, cold light flowing through his eyes. "This is only the beginning."
"The Myriad Realms shall slay gods. The gods shall meet their end."
The dark Sky Screen slowly flickered as slaughter erupted across the battlefield once more.
The battered and injured Kindness God wore a grim expression, while the black mist around Destruction God churned violently.
The two Supreme Main Gods who had yet to act had finally developed killing intent.
A line of glaring crimson text was branded upon the shattered sky.
[Next chapter: The Two Gods' Wrath!] [Destruction God takes action, and the continent nears collapse!]
The gods' final trump card was about to be completely revealed.
Douluo's most perilous deathtrap had only just arrived.
