Chapter 2070: The Pinnacle of An Lin’s Power
An Lin was moving very quickly, and it was as if nothing between heaven and earth could stop him. Anything that dared to stand in his way was engulfed by his darkness.
His Evil-Slaying Sword fell viciously upon the Heavenly Earth G.o.d.
“Do you really think I can’t do anything to you just because you dispelled my Independent Vital Substance?” The Heavenly Earth G.o.d’s expression cooled as he evaded An Lin’s attack through the use of extremely exquisite movement techniques. He clenched his hand into a fist before throwing a punch at An Lin.
Bam!
Greenish-yellow heavenly power surged.
Absolute power that represented the boundless earth struck An Lin’s body. The fist encompa.s.sed the entire heaven and earth, affording An Lin no avenues for escape. There was no way to evade that punch; he could only take it head-on.
A solemn expression appeared on An Lin’s face as he retracted his sword to defend himself. Just as he did so, the oncoming fist struck the blade of his sword. In that instant, heaven and earth fell completely silent.
What followed was an earth-shattering boom!
Boom!
The earth was torn apart while the heavens collapsed.
Boundless greenish-yellow energy erupted forth, surging frantically into the vast expanse of absolute darkness.
From a distance, it looked like a battle between black and greenish-yellow.
The Heavenly Earth G.o.d had injected all of his power into that punch. The entire Tai Chu Continent was resonating with him as the boundless power of the earth converged toward his fist. An Lin felt as if the entire continent had come cras.h.i.+ng down upon him.
The darkness behind him surged in a frenzy and was showing signs of receding.
The earth represented matter, while darkness represented nothingness; those were two completely opposite concepts.
It was the first clash between matter and nothingness of the highest caliber!
Heaven and earth were robbed of all colors. Everything was replaced by the vast power of the earth and the purest power of darkness.
Both the Heavenly Sea G.o.d and Heavenly Yin Yang G.o.d were forced into retreat by the shockwaves from the clash.
Even the surrounding marine cage had been torn apart.
The clash was far too fearsome; not only was it extremely intense, but the duration was also very long.
The Yue Tong City battlefield was extremely far away from where An Lin was situated, but everyone could see the energy collision taking place in the west. That was not just limited to powerful beings with advanced cultivation bases, but even the most ordinary of soldiers could see it quite clearly as well. Two different types of energy were tearing frantically at once another, rocking the entire heaven and earth.
“My G.o.d, what kind of battle is that?”
“I can sense the boundless true intent of the earth; there’s no mistaking it, that greenish-yellow energy belongs to the Heavenly Earth G.o.d!”
“No way… Is it a clash between Earth and Darkness? What’s going on?”
All of the powerful beings were at a complete loss with regard to what was happening in the distance.
The mysterious Heavenly Darkness G.o.d and the unfathomably powerful Heavenly Earth G.o.d; weren’t they both supposed to be enemies of the human race? Why were they battling one another?
And what was An Lin’s role in all that?
All of the living beings on the battlefield were completely baffled.
However, in any case, a battle between two paramount Heavenly G.o.ds could only benefit them, so they weren’t overly concerned.
On the entire battlefield, only Xu Xiaolan, the Battling Buddha, Yun Mengying, and Michael, as well as a small handful of other people, knew what that darkness entailed. Some of them were concerned, some were excited, and some wanted nothing more than to ditch the battle at hand to spectate the epic struggle taking place in the west.
Who didn’t want to see a battle between two paramount Heavenly G.o.ds?
The sun gradually set below the horizon, and dusk began to settle.
The greenish-yellow energy was still clas.h.i.+ng with the vast expanse of darkness.
The power of the earth originated from the entire Tai Chu Continent, so it could be said to be limitless.
In contrast, the power of darkness was eternal, and no matter how strong the a.s.sault from the power of earth was, the darkness refused to wane.
The Heavenly Earth G.o.d’s fist was attempting to grind An Lin into dust.
Meanwhile, An Lin’s Evil-Slaying Sword was supported in front of him, and he was also trying his best to push its blade toward the Heavenly Earth G.o.d. Black sword intent emanated forth, slicing into the Heavenly Earth G.o.d’s body.
The impa.s.se between the two of them had lasted longer than anyone could imagine.
The Heavenly Yin Yang G.o.d was quite astonished. Never would he have thought that An Lin would be able to last so long against the Heavenly Earth G.o.d, especially after the latter had unleashed his full strength. Did that mean that he already possessed power comparable to a paramount Heavenly G.o.d?
However, he quickly began to hatch a plot again.
He kept on making eye signals at the Heavenly Sea G.o.d, but the latter remained completely oblivious, and his eyes were firmly focused on the battle taking place up ahead.
The Heavenly Yin Yang G.o.d wore an urgent expression and said, “Heavenly Sea G.o.d, the two of them have reached an impa.s.se. If you enter the battle now, you’ll be able to break their balance and kill An Lin with ease!
“An Lin has too much potential and power; he can’t be allowed to live! He must be eliminated right here… If we allow him to continue to develop, he’s going to present countless troubles for us in the future!”
The Heavenly Yin Yang G.o.d urged in a heartfelt voice.
The Heavenly Sea G.o.d remained unmoved.
“Interrupting the battle now would be an insult to Earth. I won’t attack unless he asks for my help.” The Heavenly Sea G.o.d staked the moral high ground.
The Heavenly Yin Yang G.o.d’s face convulsed at the sight of the Heavenly Earth G.o.d’s battle with An Lin. The former was completely focused on the clash, and it was difficult for him to utter even a single word; how was he supposed to ask for help?
All of a sudden, a thought occurred to him.
If the Heavenly Sea G.o.d didn’t want to attack, then he would just have to attack in his stead!
The Heavenly Earth G.o.d couldn’t bring himself to request a.s.sistance, so it was up to the Heavenly Yin Yang G.o.d to make a difference. The Heavenly Earth G.o.d might scold him a little for barging in on the battle, but perhaps he would actually be pleased with his intervention.
Besides, the top priority was to eliminate all enemies that could harm the heavens. As such, they had to kill An Lin as quickly as possible. Fighting for honor at a time like that was nothing more than a joke!
With that in mind, the Heavenly Yin Yang G.o.d made his decision. He tore through s.p.a.ce and hurtled toward An Lin at an extremely fast speed. At the same time, black and white blades appeared in his hands, and he roared, “Heavenly Earth G.o.d, I’m here to help!”
He was going to tip the balance and make a difference! He was going to end that epic battle and stomp An Lin beneath his feet!
In that critical juncture, he was going to be the key to protecting the entire Heavenly Dao!
The Heavenly Yin Yang G.o.d was suddenly very proud of himself.
He wielded his dual blades, and a gargantuan yin-yang formation appeared beneath his feet. The formation was constantly rotating and seemed to encompa.s.s all of the mystical power in the world. That power was then injected into those blades, further enhancing their power to the maximal extent.
“Heavenly G.o.d Technique, Heaven and Earth Yin Yang Strike!”
The Heavenly Yin Yang G.o.d was not taking An Lin lightly and was unleas.h.i.+ng his most powerful technique from the get-go.
The black and white blades crashed down into the darkness with boundless might.
The Heavenly Yin Yang G.o.d’s original intention was to break the impa.s.se and ideally chop An Lin’s head off simultaneously. However, he didn’t expect that his black blade would disappear instantly into the darkness, like a drop of water that had dripped into the sea. It was gone in the blink of an eye, and it didn’t even trigger any ripples.
“H… how could this be?” The Heavenly Yin Yang G.o.d’s eyes widened. However, before he could even react, his white blade was sucked away by the greenish-yellow energy behind him, as if that white blade was a delicious meal that could replenish the earthly energy.
The Heavenly Yin Yang G.o.d had descended with fierce aggression, but both of his weapons were gone. One of them had been engulfed by the enemy, while his ally had stolen the other. He was left to stand awkwardly right in between An Lin and the Heavenly Earth G.o.d…
