Refusal and Eruption
Seeing the Light Divine Shield teetering on the brink of collapse under the onslaught, Jiang Hao's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly shouted:
"Fellow Daoist, please stop! We are natural allies; we can form an alliance to fight against the false god."
Liu Yi scoffed, his tone icy. "Although I want to bring that false god down from his pedestal, we are on different paths and cannot work together."
I don't want to kill one false god only to have another false god appear. Destroying you and that false god together is the best option.
Jiang Hao scoffed, "You really think you can defeat me with this formation? Once I break through to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, this formation will be broken in an instant."
"Oh? Then I'd like to see for myself." Liu Yi's eyes sharpened. "But you won't have that chance."
Before he finished speaking, his mind stirred slightly, and tens of thousands of Dust Mote World were created to completely envelop Jiang Hao and the other three.
Immediately afterwards, fire dragons roared, meteorites crashed down, floods surged, golden Sword Qi pierced the air, five-colored millstones churned, and yin and yang energies surged, all crashing down together with the yin and yang millstones.
"Boom!"
With a deafening roar, the already crumbling Light Divine Shield was instantly blasted away.
Taking advantage of the situation, he activated the formation, forcibly moving the Light Divine Shield out of the Fakong and storing it in his Storage Space.
"No! I'm just one step away from breaking through to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, just one step away!"
Jiang Hao hadn't expected Liu Yi's counterattack to be so fierce. The Light Divine Shield was shattered instantly, and he couldn't help but exclaim in shock, his face full of resentment.
But he instantly came to his senses and decisively stopped breaking through. If he tried to force his way into the next realm, he would be crushed to ashes by the overwhelming onslaught before he could succeed.
He abruptly threw the three Void Return Realm cultivators into the incoming attack.
"Boom!"
The three were instantly engulfed by the endless onslaught, their bodies and souls annihilated, yet they barely managed to block most of the attacks.
Taking advantage of this moment, Jiang Hao summoned the Supreme-Grade Spirit Artifact, the Light Divine Sword, and then donned the Supreme-Grade Spirit Artifact, the Light Divine Armor.
With a slash of the longsword, a golden Sword Qi as dazzling as the blazing sun appeared.
It unleashed a furious strike, carrying the sharpness to tear apart the heavens and the momentum to sweep across the eight wastelands.
"Boom!"
The Sword Qi collided violently with the remaining attacks of the formation, and a series of explosions resounded throughout the Dust Mote World.
Under the violent energy impact, the Dust Mote World was shattered with countless cracks, as if it would completely collapse at any moment.
When Jiang Hao saw that his attack could only destroy the array's offensive and failed to even shatter the Dust Mote World before him, his expression immediately turned extremely ugly.
He never expected that the strength of the formation would increase so dramatically in the blink of an eye.
Previously, he had intended to conceal his cultivation level, use the God of Light to deal with Liu Yi, and reap the benefits.
But the God of Light turned out to be so incompetent.
Not only did they fail to rescue him, they were also routed and forced to flee, depriving him of the opportunity to break the formation from the very beginning.
Truly, being too clever for one's own good!
He suppressed his shock and anger and said, "Fellow Daoist, shall we stop here? Your formation's attacks can't harm me."
Liu Yi chuckled and countered, "I wonder how many more times you can unleash an attack like that? Can your energy still hold up?"
Although he could Heaven-Opening Divine Ability to directly attack Jiang Hao, doing so would likely only help the opponent shatter the formation. It would be better to proceed steadily and wear him down step by step.
Ultimately, the power of the Chaos Yin-Yang Five Elements Mote Formation was too weak.
"Hmph, since you won't give up, then let me break your formation myself."
Jiang Hao held the Light Divine Sword, his hands forming a sword incantation, and he chanted loudly:
"The sword wields its power, shattering illusions with its light; its Sword Qi crisscrosses, illuminating the heavens. The heart concentrates on the light, the sword's intent is boundless!"
Before the words were finished, a golden Sword Qi as blazing as the sun suddenly burst forth, cleaving through the void and shattering the already cracked Dust Mote World.
As the world collapsed, a world-destroying force suddenly surged forth, crashing down on Jiang Hao like a monstrous wave.
Jiang Hao had just fallen into the new Dust Mote World and hadn't even had time to see his surroundings clearly before he was forced to hastily engage in battle.
While resisting the rampant and destructive power of destruction, they also had to deal with the continuous attacks of the formations.
After a deafening roar, his face turned slightly pale, his breathing became rapid and chaotic, and his spiritual energy was greatly depleted.
This hard-fought battle clearly took a toll on him.
However, before he could recover, a new wave of attacks from the formation came crashing down like a storm.
After Jiang Hao managed to block the attack, he quickly took out a 20-meter-tall Light Dharma Body from his storage ring.
He flashed and stepped into the Dharma Body. The Light Dharma Body immediately shone brightly, expanding to a height of a hundred meters, its golden light as dazzling as the sun.
"This is the Light Dharma Body of Light, which I have painstakingly refined over a hundred years. It was originally prepared to deal with the God of Light, but today I will let you be the first to taste its power."
The Light Dharma Body, wielding the Light Divine Sword, swept the sword horizontally, its incomparably sharp Sword Qi blocking most of the array's attacks.
Occasionally, sporadic attacks would break through the Sword Qi and strike the Light Dharma Body, producing a sound like metal clashing.
Seeing that Jiang Hao's defense and attack instantly doubled Light Dharma Body, Liu Yi couldn't help but think to himself:
No wonder he dared to plot against the God of Light; he's certainly got some skills.
These schemers never know what cards they're holding until the very last moment.
However, even if he possessed the Light Dharma Body, it would be useless. The Chaos Yin-Yang Five Elements Mote Formation might not be outstanding in terms of attack, but its ability to trap people is extremely powerful.
Enveloped by layers of Dust Mote World, unless you possess extraordinary power to shatter the entire Dust Mote World with a single blow.
Otherwise, they will have no chance of escaping from the formation and will only be worn down by endless attacks.
After Jiang Hao shattered eight Dust Mote World in succession, the divine light around him had noticeably dimmed.
As yet another new Dust Mote World appeared before my eyes, a sense of despair crept into my heart.
He had no idea how many more Dust Mote World awaited him ahead.
He meticulously planned for over two hundred years to dethrone the God of Light and take his place.
He was overjoyed when he heard that Liu Yi had killed the avatar of the God of Light.
But to everyone's surprise, Liu Yi was so audacious as to directly attack the headquarters of the Temple of the God of Light and even trap himself in this formation.
He requested the God of Light to intervene, hoping to reap the benefits, but instead watched as Liu Yi and the God of Light both suffered heavy losses.
Unexpectedly, Liu Yi's strength far exceeded expectations, and he actually forced the God of Light to flee in a sorry state.
Even now, having unleashed his most treasured Light Dharma Body, he still cannot break through the formation and escape.
At that moment, a wave of despair washed over him, but he quickly regained his composure, a ruthless glint appearing in his eyes. He formed hand Method Formula and chanted an incantation:
"Light gathers at the top, spiritual energy surges, spirit condenses into a sliver of light, and its power shatters the primordial chaos."
His aura suddenly surged tenfold, and the Light Divine Sword in his hand erupted with dazzling divine light.
With a single swing of his sword, its unparalleled sharpness cleaved through the Dust Mote World before him.
A 30,000-meter-long beam of light suddenly appeared, its sword intent soaring to the heavens.
It first annihilated all the attacks coming from the formation, then tore through the void and blasted towards the Dust Mote World before it with earth-shattering force.
