Chapter 2046: Demonic Emperor Si Yu
“Heaven Vanquis.h.i.+ng Infernal Flames.” The six-winged archangel, Uriel, stood upon a vital node in the Heaven Vanquis.h.i.+ng Formation and spread open his arms. Green flames imbued with extremely powerful heaven crus.h.i.+ng true intent suddenly erupted from the ground ahead of the Heavenly Human Tribe army. The Heavenly Humans who came into contact with those green flames had their feathers reduced to ashes and their skin scorched into charcoal. All of them perished in excruciating pain and misery, as if they had been plunged into h.e.l.l.
These infernal flames covered a distance of over a hundred kilometers and instantly killed over a million Heavenly Human Tribe living beings, creating an astonis.h.i.+ng spectacle to behold.
Uriel normally wouldn’t have been able to unleash such a powerful spell technique, but with the enhancement effect of the Heaven Vanquis.h.i.+ng Formation, he was capable of doing so.
Vital energy surged violently, and he began to quickly replenish his energy in preparation to launch another spell technique.
All of a sudden, the s.p.a.ce beside him cracked open!
An invisible being was rapidly approaching.
“Wind Walker?!” Uriel’s expression darkened as he launched a palm through the air.
Boom!
A monstrous explosion of energy ensued.
Uriel swayed slightly as blood trickled from the corners of his lips. The invisible figure he had struck was also forced to reveal its wind body.
“I really didn’t think that I would have to fight you like this…” Uriel gritted his teeth.
The Wind Walker remained silent.
The two of them were once friends who had fought side by side. However, their respective forces had chosen different paths, and they had diverged away from one another.
All of a sudden, flames erupted in the distance, coloring heaven and earth red.
Heavenly G.o.ddess Fei Huang let loose an enraged cry as five divine halos appeared around her. Five pairs of wings of different colors had also appeared behind her, and the layers of wings increased in size in ascending order.
Vermilion Birds Nan Li, You Luo, Huan Jin, Tian Jin, and Xue Ya roared in unison as they charged toward Heavenly G.o.ddess Fei Huang.
This was for no reason other than the fact that this Heavenly G.o.ddess Fei Huang was even more despicable than the Heavenly Centaurea G.o.ddess in their eyes. Her arrogant demeanor and her multiple pairs of vibrant wings had completely provoked the proud Vermilion Birds, thereby prompting them to gang up on her.
This was a lineup consisting of six Vermilion Bird Sages at the Dao Integration Pinnacle Stage and a Dao Integration Intermediate Stage Vermilion Bird. Their frenetic reverence toward their Great Empress Vermilion Bird allowed them to develop heaven crus.h.i.+ng true intent that was very close in caliber to that of a heavenly disciple candidate. The collective power of all five of them far surpa.s.sed that of a heavenly disciple candidate and was even slightly superior to the Ancient Dragon Empress. As such, Heavenly G.o.ddess Fei Huang was forced to unleash five of her divine halos from the get-go.
They were the only group that had been creating substantial trouble for the Heavenly G.o.ddess thus far.
Heavenly G.o.ddess Fei Huang was in some peril, but the other Heavenly G.o.ds were unstoppable. The Heavenly Change G.o.ddess, the Heavenly Yin Yang G.o.d, Heavenly G.o.d Xing Ji, Heavenly Soundless G.o.ddess, and the Heavenly Sword G.o.d swept aside all obstacles en route to the core of the Heaven Vanquis.h.i.+ng Formation.
Some Return to Void Stage mighty figures attempted to slow them down, but all of them were instantly slain.
“Glug glug glug…” Demonic Emperor Si Yu continued to chug more wine at the sight of the oncoming Heavenly G.o.ds, and his aura began to slowly elevate as he drank.
The sweet fragrance of wine wafted through the air.
Demonic Emperor Si Yu laughed heartily. “Heavenly Disciple An Lin, I’ll be heading into battle now!”
Whoos.h.!.+
A red streak of light punctured s.p.a.ce.
In the distance, sword intent wreaked havoc, slicing countless Buddhist Kingdom disciples into pieces. A G.o.d-like being wielding a celestial sword rushed toward the two figures atop the city wall of Yue Tong City, covering a distance of five kilometers with each step he took.
He was the one who traveled the fastest among the Heavenly G.o.ds, not because he was actually the quickest, but because he killed all those who stood in his way faster than anyone else.
The Heavenly Sword G.o.d only had one mission, and that was to lure An Lin out!
“That man is the only being on this battlefield that I must treat with caution…” The Heavenly Sword G.o.d held his rapier tightly as he continued to advance. His gaze was imbued with powerful sword intent, and it pierced through the battlefield to land on the white-robed figure on the city wall.
However, an extremely powerful aura suddenly approached him at a rapid rate, making the hair on the back of his neck stand on end.
He immediately unleashed two of his divine halos.
“Heaven Crus.h.i.+ng Drunken Fist!”
A loud war cry erupted.
The Heavenly Sword G.o.d raised his silver rapier and injected the paramount power of laws from his dual divine halos into its blade. At this moment, the oncoming fist was already upon him.
He tried to use his sword to block the punch, but the rich scent of wine suddenly wafted into his nostrils, and he discovered that there appeared to be thousands of fists raining down upon him at once!
An illusion?
The Heavenly Sword G.o.d’s expression changed slightly before he was pummeled by thousands of punches.
Boom boom boom!
Blood gushed forth from the Heavenly Sword G.o.d’s mouth, and his entire body was riddled with fist indentations as he was knocked flying through the air.
The surrounding powerful beings were all astonished by this sight.
“Look at that True Demon! Holy sh*t, he’s so bada.s.s!”
“Did he just send a Heavenly G.o.d flying? How powerful is he?”
“He was once the most powerful being in the True Demon Tribe and is now Cyril’s Heavenly Disciple Attendant, so it makes sense for him to be this powerful.”
“Phew… We’re saved. I thought we were all dead for sure.”
Demonic Emperor Si Yu’s arrival provided a much-needed boost in morale for the allied army’s powerful beings, who had been forced into a dire situation.
In contrast, the Heavenly Sword G.o.d was in an extremely sorry state, and he hurtled back in retreat as he frantically unleashed his divine halos.
Demonic Emperor Si Yu continued to give chase, unleas.h.i.+ng a series of bizarre and mysterious punches. The Heavenly Sword G.o.d had been forced firmly onto the back foot, and he was only defending for his life. Even so, there were often punches that snuck through his barrier of sword intent before cras.h.i.+ng viciously into his body.
“Blue Defense! Double Strength! Life! Eternal Truth!” the Heavenly Sword G.o.d roared like a madman. After activating his seventh divine halo, he was finally able to glean the trajectory of Demonic Emperor Si Yu’s attacks through the Eternal Truth.
The scent of wine emanating from Demonic Emperor Si Yu’s body was able to cloud one’s mind and distort reality. However, after activating his Eternal Truth divine halo, he was finally able to combat Demonic Emperor Si Yu’s peculiar drunken fist.
“Die! Lightning Sword Strike!” The Heavenly Sword G.o.d evaded Demonic Emperor Si Yu’s attacks, and his rapier shot forth toward the True Demon like a bolt of lightning striking from an extremely uncomfortable angle.
Whoos.h.!.+
A gash was inflicted upon Demonic Emperor Si Yu’s muscular body, and blood splattered through the air.
However, before the Heavenly Sword G.o.d had the chance to attack again, he discovered that a ma.s.sive gourd had somehow escaped his notice and appeared above him. The gourd then fell from the sky and crashed heavily upon his head.
“Dong!”
The Heavenly Sword G.o.d felt as if his head were about to split open, and his eyes rolled into the back of his head. His body plummeted from the sky before cras.h.i.+ng to the ground, creating a ma.s.sive crater.
“Hehe, you’re acting c.o.c.ky just because you managed to see through my illusions?” Demonic Emperor Si Yu chortled as he caught the red gourd before downing more wine. “Glug glug glug…”
“How dare you drink while fighting me!” The Heavenly Sword G.o.d felt as if he had been insulted, and he roared to shake off his dizziness. He rose into the sky and lashed out at Demonic Emperor Si Yu with his rapier.
Demonic Emperor Si Yu suddenly opened his mouth and spat out some wine before snapping his fingers.
Boom!
A ma.s.sive burst of flames erupted from his mouth, threatening to incinerate the entire heavens.
The Heavenly Sword G.o.d was unable to evade as his sword intent was melted away by the terrifying heaven crus.h.i.+ng power imbued within the flames. He was then inundated by the waves of fire and crushed to the ground, where he lay, convulsing spasmodically.
“Why can’t I drink in a fight?” Demonic Emperor Si Yu chuckled before drinking more wine from his gourd. “Glug glug…”
