Chapter 2063: The Might of the Darkness Divine Dao
No matter what attack one used, it was able to formulate the best defense.
No matter what type of energy one unleashed, it could use the bane of that energy in accordance.
It was unavoidable and unstoppable.
Those were the truly fearsome aspects of the Independent Vital Substance.
An Lin had been instantly stabbed by a dozen or so swords constructed from the Independent Vital Substance.
The Heavenly Sea G.o.d’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he nodded upon seeing that. Even though there had been a few twists, things were finally progressing according to the plan. Next, the Heavenly Earth G.o.d would force An Lin into a dire situation with his trump card. Then, An Lin would be beaten to the brink of death, forcing him to become the true Heavenly Darkness G.o.d…
Only after becoming the Heavenly Darkness G.o.d would An Lin stand a chance against the Heavenly Earth G.o.d. The Heavenly Sea G.o.d would then be able to find an opportunity to complete his plan.
An Lin turned toward the Heavenly Sea G.o.d with a distressed expression, trying to seek help from him. However, the Heavenly Sea G.o.d pretended not to see that, and only surrept.i.tiously gave him an encouraging look.
For f*ck’s sake!
An Lin swore loudly in his heart.
He felt like the Heavenly Sea G.o.d had screwed him over!
He hadn’t lied about the location and fatal flaw of the earth slaughter formation. He had also told the truth when he said that the Heavenly Earth G.o.d would suffer a backlash following the destruction of the formation. But… he also said that the Heavenly Earth G.o.d would be severely debilitated by that backlash, thereby making them comparable in power!
An Lin looked at the Independent Vital Substance swords protruding from his body, and ten thousand mythological beasts stampeded across his heart. You f*cking call this comparable in power?
He was aware that the Heavenly Sea G.o.d knew of his seven heavenly powers, his Five Elemental Body, divine sense An Lin, and his Dark Immortal Transformation. However, he would be essentially disabled as soon as he used his Dark Immortal Transformation, so this was the extent of his combat prowess. So just what was the Heavenly Sea G.o.d intending when he urged him to fight the Heavenly Earth G.o.d and when he told him that they would be comparable in power?
Was he trying to screw him over?!
An Lin knew that the Heavenly Sea G.o.d wouldn’t benefit from his death. As such, his intentions were quite clear.
The Heavenly Sea G.o.d was definitely aware that he had a life-sacrificial technique; he wanted An Lin to sacrifice his lifespan in order to fight the Heavenly Earth G.o.d! Perhaps only then would they truly be comparable in power!
At that point in time, the Independent Vital Substance had already seeped into An Lin’s body. There, it was changing its properties in order to annihilate him in the most efficient way possible! Due to the special energy released by the substance, An Lin’s body was becoming stiff and sluggish, and he didn’t even have the chance to run away anymore.
Did he really have to sacrifice his lifespan again?
No way!
I already promised Xiaolan that I wouldn’t do that again!
An Lin’s eyes gradually became inky-black.
He had to use the trump card that he had never unleashed on the Tai Chu Continent before…
“Independent Vital Substance, destroy!” the Heavenly Earth G.o.d said in an indifferent voice. The white substance on his palm surged forth in a frenzy, and a dazzling white light erupted as it prepared to deliver a lethal strike to An Lin.
The Heavenly Earth G.o.d held a crus.h.i.+ng advantage, but his expression was extremely grave and cautious. He knew that An Lin was the Heavenly Darkness G.o.d, and he also knew that the upcoming battle would be the true battle; one that could threaten his life!
He didn’t want to fight An Lin at his full power in the past as he didn’t want to force him into using his power of darkness. It would not be a good idea to create such a powerful enemy too early. However, he didn’t have any alternative aside from joining forces with Sea to kill An Lin!
That was both a simple matter and simultaneously a difficult task.
After all, no matter how weak An Lin was, he was still the manifestation of a paramount Heavenly G.o.d!
It was better to be safe than sorry.
Come one, An Lin, become Darkness…
The Heavenly Earth G.o.d wore an expectant expression.
Thump…
The sound of a heartbeat suddenly erupted.
It wasn’t very loud, but all of the living beings could hear it quite clearly.
A black ball suddenly appeared over An Lin’s heart. That was a blackness that was pure to the extreme; it was a darkness that made the onlooker feel as if their soul were going to be sucked in just from a single glance.
The Independent Vital Substance wreaking havoc within An Lin’s body seemed to have encountered some resistance, and it became more dazzling than ever. It appeared to be growing more powerful, but the hissing screech emanating from it revealed the nature of its situation.
The substance could change its properties in order to flawlessly dominate any power it encountered. However… the darkness it was facing… was impossible to dominate!
That was the power of a paramount Heavenly G.o.d!
Hiss hiss hiss…
The swords protruding from An Lin’s body began to dim, and darkness suddenly erupted from the wounds, quickly engulfing the swords. All of the swords disappeared into the darkness in the blink of an eye and were nowhere to be seen.
Upon seeing that, the Heavenly Earth G.o.d immediately hurtled back in retreat before appraising An Lin with a grave expression. “The power of darkness? What’s going on? You’re clearly not on the brink of death, so how are you able to use that power?!”
The Independent Vital Substance hadn’t unleashed its full power yet, and the Heavenly Earth G.o.d knew that An Lin was not on the brink of death.
An Lin held his Evil-Slaying Sword and stood on the spot. The wounds on his body quickly recovered at a rate perceptible to the naked eye, and he was only standing there, but he gave one a sense of extreme peril.
The Heavenly Yin Yang G.o.d was situated very far away from An Lin, but he was struck by a sense of asphyxiation at the mere sight of him. How was that possible? He was a Heavenly G.o.d!
However, his instincts wouldn’t lie, and his body was already trembling uncontrollably. If he continued to stay there, he felt like he would be engulfed and destroyed!
“What just happened? H-he still has more up his sleeve?” The Heavenly Yin Yang G.o.d was astonished.
The Heavenly Sea G.o.d’s mouth also gaped open in shock. What was happening?
He didn’t look like he was close to death, so… how could he be capable of using heavenly darkness power?
The five elemental ring behind An Lin had already disappeared along with his Heavenly G.o.d dao jade and divine halo. All of that had merged into the darkness in his heart.
In the face of darkness, nothing else was required. All they had to do was to be engulfed by the darkness as fuel.
Boom!
An Lin’s aura soared explosively once again.
He strode toward the Heavenly Earth G.o.d, and the earth he walked was transformed into darkness and nothingness.
Earth represented matter, and he was annihilating all matter in his wake.
The Heavenly Earth G.o.d’s expression was no longer indifferent upon seeing that, but he wasn’t fl.u.s.tered either. He said in a calm voice, “So you can use a portion of the power of darkness… I’m quite surprised.
“However, don’t forget that you’re a flawed ent.i.ty while I am perfect and whole. We are both paramount Heavenly G.o.ds; how are you going to defeat—”
Whoos.h.!.+
Before he had a chance to finish his sentence, a black sword gash had already appeared on the Heavenly Earth G.o.d’s chest.
Before he knew it, An Lin had arrived in front of him before unleas.h.i.+ng a sword strike that easily tore his body apart!
Darkness fell!
