Just as Tianyi had made arrangements for the Tsubasa and was preparing to face the impending storm alone—
"Snap... Snap--!!!"
It was as if the glass of the entire universe was shattering! In the center of the star field battlefield, the space that had been just violently fluctuating was torn apart from the inside by an indescribable force, like a fragile canvas!
A colossal, despair-inducing spatial passage, tens of thousands of kilometers in diameter, was forcibly opened!
The edges of the passage are twisted and broken spatial turbulence, while inside lies a deep, dark, and terrifying scene that seems to connect to the end of the universe!
Immediately afterwards, an overwhelming Yin Shadow slowly emerged from the passage!
Those were colossal God Tree Battleship, each as massive as a mountain! Their appearance was even more ferocious, and their energy fluctuations far surpassed the previous 100,000 -Ōtsutsuki fleet. Their hulls were wrapped with living wooden structures, shimmering with a dark light. They were densely packed, stretching as far as the eye could see, like a destructive torrent pouring forth from another world!
The main force of the million- Ōtsutsuki army has officially arrived in the Shinobi World!
The chilling aura solidified, transforming into an endless black cloud that enveloped the outer reaches of the entire Solar System! The once-shining Xingchen seemed to lose their luster and become dim under this terrifying aura and pressure. The icy killing intent, like a tangible cold wind, chilled the souls of every Shinobi World creature on the battlefield, making them feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
At the very center of that massive fleet was a super flagship, its size comparable to a small planet! Its shape resembled the Heart of the God Tree rooted in the void, with countless energy roots spreading into the space, drawing energy from the void, and radiating a terrifyingly powerful life force and oppressive aura.
On the observation deck atop the flagship " Heart of the God Tree," three figures stood side by side.
The one in the center, dressed in a long black robe, with a handsome face that was almost otherworldly, and an indifferent gaze as if he regarded all things as Ōtsutsuki Genshō! His aura was as deep as an abyss, and just by standing there, he caused the surrounding space to distort slightly. The faint pressure of the Peak Domain Level originated from him.
On the left was a man with a burly, rock-like build and dark red skin, like cooled lava. His eyes flashed with intense light as they opened and closed. He was none other than the Red Rock City — Ōtsutsuki Sekigan, Peak Domain Level expert!
The person on the right was shrouded in a black robe that seemed to absorb all light, revealing only a pair of dark, black hole-like eyes. He exuded a deathly aura that devoured everything. He was the Lord of Dark Devouring City — Ōtsutsuki Anzei, who was also a Peak Domain Level expert!
Three powerful figures standing at the pinnacle of power and strength of the Ōtsutsuki Clan looked down through their special divine eyes at the star field in front of them, which had just experienced a fierce battle.
They saw the countless floating wreckage of the Ōtsutsuki Vanguard warships and the corpses of their clansmen. They saw the Allied Shinobi Forces, though battered and broken, still stubbornly forming the last spherical defensive line, protecting the red planet behind them.
Then, their gazes, without prior agreement, focused on the lone figure suspended in the starry sky at the very front of the defensive line.
White hair, white armor, golden lotus feet dim yet still firm, his posture upright like a pine tree, facing a million-strong army alone, like an ancient reef, ready to meet the tide of destruction.
The Immortal King of the Shinobi World — Tsubasa!
A cold and cruel smile curled at the corner of Ōtsutsuki Genshō's lips. That smile contained no warmth, only indifference to the struggles of ants and anticipation of the impending slaughter and conquest.
"Finally, the time for reaping and revenge has come." His voice was calm, yet like the pronouncement of Death God, clearly transmitted throughout the entire Ōtsutsuki Legion through a special amplification device, and even faintly reached the defense line of the Allied Shinobi Forces.
He saw the Tsubasa and sensed the complete disappearance of the auras of his beloved generals, Ōtsutsuki Taku, Ōtsutsuki Gen, and Ōtsutsuki Gō. But there was no ripple in his eyes, as if the dead were just a few insignificant insects. What truly concerned him was the special secret within this planet, and the world's origin nurtured there, enough to make the God Tree bear unprecedented fruit.
He slowly raised his hand, the movement elegant yet powerful, as if he held the power of life and death.
All the Ōtsutsuki warriors' eyes were focused on that hand, the warship's cannons began to charge, and a dim light flowed across the hull.
Then, that hand suddenly swung down!
"All troops—attack!"
There were no passionate shouts, no superfluous words, only the simplest and coldest commands.
But these four simple words were like the fuse that lit a powder keg!
In an instant, the million- Ōtsutsuki Legion moved!
Like a black and white tide that had been accumulating for millions of years, it finally broke through the dam! Countless God Tree Battleship roared to life, spewing out eerie blue tail flames, transforming into streaks of deathly light! Even more Ōtsutsuki sky in their physical bodies, swept across the land like locusts!
The aura of destruction coalesced into a tangible shockwave, which crashed into the fragile defenses of the Allied Shinobi Forces from all directions!
The energy shield groaned in agony the moment it made contact, its light flashing wildly! The warships at the forefront crumbled like sandcastles shattered by a giant wave, even the Kakkō of the explosions instantly swallowed by the surging black tide!
"For the Shinobi World!!!"
"Fire! Fire at full power!"
"Stop them!!"
The Allied Shinobi Forces unleashed their final, desperate roar! All remaining artillery fire poured forth relentlessly, disregarding the risk of overload! The surviving warriors unleashed their last strength, charging forward, attempting to use their flesh and blood to stop the destructive torrent!
Tsubasa stood at the forefront of everyone, facing the overwhelming black legion. He took a deep breath and poured the remaining immortal Immortal Power in his body into all the acupoints. One by one, the treasure trove of the human body was opened and lit up, and then formed an array. All 108 acupoints on his body were forcibly opened. The final Isshiki the Xingchen Body-Tempering Art, the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiend Celestial Star Gate Formation, was fully activated.
Tsubasa's Immortal Power increased exponentially, and then he poured it into the Jūni-Grade Golden Lotus and the Xingchen Immortal Sword in his hand.
Tsubasa's face showed an indomitable tenacity as he tried to sacrifice himself to create the last safe haven for his comrades behind him.
He knew this might be his last battle. But behind him lay his world, everything he had sworn to protect with his life.
"War!"
Tsubasa's roar was like a star core exploding, shaking the surrounding space. Facing the endless million- Ōtsutsuki Legion sweeping across the starry sea, he did not hesitate at all. The Immortal Power within his body, which had been on the verge of depletion, was completely ignited at this moment!
It's not just an ordinary ignition; it's the most resolute and cruel burning of life and soul!
"With the soul of my Immortal King, I ignite my immortal body! The Origin Sage Art technique— the Celestial Star Gate Formation— opens, Star Burner and Sacrifice to the Dao!"
boom--!!!
All 108 acupoints on Tsubasa's body blazed like Xingchen, spewing forth indescribably brilliant flames! These flames were no ordinary fire, but Dao Fire woven from the purest immortal laws and the essence of life! His flesh and blood were melting, his bones were turning into light, and his soul was roaring in the raging flames!
Almost instantly, his once magnificent physical body vanished completely, replaced by a humanoid torch, ten thousand feet tall, composed entirely of pure, blazing white Senjutsu flames! This fiery humanoid form had a blurred face, with only two golden soul flames burning in the position of its eyes, filled with endless sorrow and determination!
"Not enough! Still not enough! Jūni-Grade Golden Lotus, bloom with me!!"
The burning humanoid flame let out a roar that shook the universe, and suddenly clasped its hands together, pouring without reservation the terrifying energy generated by its own burning—enough to incinerate galaxies—into the Jūni-Grade Golden Lotus beneath its feet!
"Buzz--!"
Nourished by this unprecedented life energy, the Jūni-Grade Golden Lotus, whose radiance had been somewhat dim, emitted a buzzing sound as if the heavens and earth were being created! The lotus petals unfolded to an unprecedented extent, and the golden light surged, like a sun composed purely of the laws of the Great Dao rising on the dark curtain of the universe!
The Golden Lotus's Dao Domain is expanding at an unprecedented scale!
Originally, it only protected Tsubasa for tens of thousands of miles around, but now, the golden light spread like a tide, instantly covering the entire war zone! Countless Ōtsutsuki warships and warriors that were charging forward were enveloped by this vast golden Dao Domain.
