"Why, why, can a First-Level God fight me to a draw? Why?"
Tang San was now filled with barely suppressed rage. He retreated rapidly, then vanished from his spot and reappeared a hundred meters away. Tang San Asura Demonic Sword high above his head and charged towards Jun Yi.
" Asura - Judgment!"
Tang San shouted, Asura Demonic Sword instantly released a terrifying blood-red energy beam. This energy beam was like the most terrifying attack in the world, and it instantly drew an arc and slashed towards Jun Yi.
This crimson energy beam exuded a terrifying pressure, as if even the void itself was about to be torn apart. The surrounding air instantly became viscous, as if even sound was frozen.
Jun Yi's gaze turned slightly serious. His figure vanished from his original spot in an instant, reappearing a hundred meters away. The next moment, he seemed to teleport back to his original position, but now he held a sword in his hand. The sword was long and slender, at least 1.7 meters long, covered in a layer of blue light, radiating a chilling aura. Several tassels decorated with rope were tied to the upper part of the hilt. It was none other than the demon sword, Demon Sword Kikoku.
As Jun Yi unleashed his slash, a massive black rift instantly appeared in the sky. This black rift resembled a monstrous beast devouring everything around it. Immediately afterward, the crimson energy beam shattered within the black beast's maw, transforming into countless crimson specks that fluttered down from the sky.
Tang San's face turned pale instantly. He never expected that Jun Yi would be able to withstand his Asura Judgment. Moreover, judging from the situation just now, it seemed that his Asura Judgment had been defeated by Jun Yi.
A surge of intense anger and resentment welled up within Tang San. "Why? Why is a First-Level God so powerful?" Tang San couldn't believe what was happening before his eyes. He was unwilling, truly unwilling! He had endured humiliation and sacrificed a portion of his Divine Soul to inherit the Asura God Position. He should have possessed the strength of God King, so why couldn't he even defeat Jun Yi?
"It's very simple. As the inheritor of the Asura God Position, you haven't completely transformed your Soul Power into Divine Power yet. Right now, you're just a relatively strong First-Level God, a far cry from a true God King." Jun Yi's calm voice rang out, and his figure instantly appeared in front of Tang San, only inches away. The tip of the Demon Sword Kikoku was pressed against Tang San's throat; with just a little force, he could sever Tang San's head.
But Jun Yi didn't do that, because Tang San didn't have what Jun Yi wanted. Killing Tang San would not benefit him at all. "You lost," Jun Yi said calmly, looking at Tang San with icy eyes.
Tang San's eyes were filled with disbelief. "I refuse to accept this! I lost to you? How could I, the mighty Asura God, lose to First-Level God like you?" Jun Yi didn't speak, but simply hovered quietly in mid-air, his gaze cold and profound.
"Everyone, now that we're here, let's not hide in the shadows."
As soon as he finished speaking, a black longsword resembling Angel Holy Sword shot directly towards Jun Yi.
The sword came slashing down. Jun Yi's gaze hardened slightly. He retreated instantly, and at the same time, the Demon Sword Kikoku in his hand unleashed a blade of light, repelling the dark Angel Holy Sword. Immediately afterward, the Seven Deadly Sins Gods appeared before Jun Yi. The Dark Holy Sword from before was the artifact of the God of Pride, the Fallen Angel God Sword.
" Jun Yi, I never expected you to dare go out alone."
"You certainly have guts," the God of Pride said coldly. "Last time, I was ambushed by your power, which resulted in me being severely injured by the Rakshasa God. Today, I will show you my true strength."
Six more black fallen Angel wings sprouted from behind the God of Pride, and wielding Dark Holy Sword, he charged directly towards Jun Yi.
A terrifying dark power erupted from the Dark Holy Sword, its six fallen Angel wings like six sharp blades slicing towards Jun Yi. This dark power exuded an extremely terrifying corrosiveness, as if it could even tear apart the void. Jun Yi's gaze turned slightly serious. His figure instantly vanished from his original spot, reappearing a hundred meters away. Then, as if teleporting, he appeared above the God of Pride, wielding the Demon Sword Kikoku, and slashed at the God of Pride.
A piercing metallic clang rang out in mid-air, followed by the instant shattering of the God of Pride's six fallen Angel wings, which scattered in the air. A look of fear flashed in the God of Pride's eyes; he never expected that Jun Yi would be able to withstand his attack and even sever his fallen Angel wings.
"Your power is far inferior to the God of Sloth. You think you can contend with me?" Jun Yi's gaze was icy, and his voice was like the awakening of the Nine Netherworlds. The Demon Sword Kikoku in his hand instantly unleashed a black blade light, directly slashing towards the God of Pride. The black blade light emitted terrifying energy fluctuations, as if even the void itself was being torn apart. The surrounding air seemed to freeze at this moment, exuding an endless sense of oppression.
The God of Pride's face turned pale instantly. He gripped the Dark Holy Sword with both hands and slashed at the black blade of light. Immediately afterward, a loud bang resounded in mid-air. The black blade of light shattered instantly, and at the same time, the God of Pride's body was sent flying backward as if struck by a terrifying force.
Another loud bang echoed in mid-air, followed by a figure plummeting from the sky. It God of Pride! A new wound appeared on the God of Pride's body, black blood flowing down his body.
" Pride, enough! You are no match for him." Seeing that the God of Sloth was injured, the God of Pride stepped forward and quietly examined Jun Yi. "You possess multiple Divine Power, but these powers reside within your body and do not depend on any Godhood."
"You're not actually a god right now, are you?" The God of Sloth looked at Jun Yi calmly, a hint of solemnity creeping into his languid expression.
"You have a good eye; no wonder you're the strongest of the Seven Deadly Sins Gods," Jun Yi praised.
This conversation between the two completely baffled Tang San. How could Jun Yi, without having merged with any Godhood position, be locked in a fierce battle with him, the " God King " who had merged with the Asura God's Godhood?
A deep sense of resentment welled up in his heart. He might not be wronged to lose to this First-Level God, but it seemed a bit unreasonable that Jun Yi could still defeat him without fusing with any Godhood.
After all, he is the Asura God! One of the five supreme gods feared by all the God King in the world.
