587: Chapter 587 Slaying the True Spirit, Devouring the Divine Abyss

The collision between the great evolution immortal slaying sword and the dark-red destructive split blade did not stir the expected energy storm.

Deathly silence.

A deathly silence enough to make even an Immortal King's heart and gall split with fear.

That dark-red destructive split blade, spurred by the peak power of an Immortal King, was enough to tear stars apart and bury all Laws.

At the moment it touched the edge of the great evolution immortal slaying sword, it froze.

It did not shatter, nor did it dissipate.

Instead, it was silently sliced open from the middle.

The cut was incredibly smooth, without a single trace of energy leakage.

The dark blade of the great evolution immortal slaying sword, carrying an indomitable momentum, passed right through the split blade.

Its momentum did not stop.

A sword mark undetectable by the naked eye appeared out of thin air on the chaotic void behind the monster.

It appeared out of nowhere and spread frantically toward the depths of the Universe.

Hundreds of millions of miles!

A dark sword abyss, hundreds of millions of miles long, lay across the sea of stars.

Swallowing all light and Law that approached.

This was the first time the great evolution immortal slaying sword truly revealed its edge after advancing to a Low Grade Immortal King weapon.

One sword to break all Laws!

"Roar...?"

The monster, a Fusion of Immortal King Guyuan and the First Generation Old Ancestor, let out a hiss mixed with pain and confusion from its throat.

It could not understand.

Why the ultimate strike it had exchanged everything to sacrifice was so fragile.

But its extreme, tyrannical instinct left it no time to think.

Its attack broken, its arms—covered in hideous bone spurs—

Suddenly crossed, strangling toward Shen Yuanmo's chest at close range!

The Physical Body strength of an Immortal King's limit was pushed to the extreme.

As its arms swung, the resulting astral winds were enough to easily crush stars.

The surrounding space was stirred like boiling water, with countless tiny spatial cracks appearing and disappearing.

It wanted to use the purest, most barbaric strength to grind this ant, who dared to provoke it, into meat paste!

Facing this offensive capable of grinding even an Immortal King into powder, Shen Yuanmo did not dodge or avoid it.

He didn't even swing his sword again.

The Chaos Immortal Body surged into operation!

With his left hand holding the sword and his right hand forming a fist,

Enveloped in a thin layer of dark-golden brilliance, he met the incoming dark-red bone arms head-on.

Bang!

The collision of fist and arm finally erupted in a world-shaking muffled thud.

Centered on the two of them, a visible shockwave of destruction spread rapidly in a ring.

Wherever the shockwave passed, all remaining star fragments and meteor dust were reduced to tiny particles.

Shen Yuanmo's figure was shaken back hundreds of miles, his feet plowing two deep furrows into the void.

And the monster's massive body, due to the immense force of this punch,

Had its offensive halted, its massive frame forced to a standstill on the spot.

"Still not enough!"

Shen Yuanmo's voice was cold, carrying a trace of undisguised disappointment.

He took a step forward, his figure closing in once more.

One man and one monster, in this shattered sea of stars,

Engaged in the most primitive and bloody close-quarters combat.

Fist against fist, elbow against knee, flesh and blood colliding with dark-red crystal bone.

Every clash made the entire void tremble.

The monster was tyrannical and frenzied, every strike containing chaotic Immortal King regulations.

Attempting to tear apart and corrode Shen Yuanmo's Chaos Immortal Body.

However, Shen Yuanmo's Chaos Immortal Body, after advancing to Half-Step Immortal King, had long been harmonious and flawless, a world unto itself.

No matter how the tyrannical regulations struck, they only caused a ripple on the surface of his body.

They were immediately and overbearingly assimilated and swallowed, turning into his own nourishment.

The rhythm of the battle was completely controlled by Shen Yuanmo.

In collision after collision, he constantly tested the limits of this fused body.

After tens of thousands of rounds of clashing, the monster became increasingly frantic.

It discovered that no matter how frantically it attacked, it could do nothing to the person before it.

On the contrary, the opponent's fists became heavier and more precise with each strike.

Several times, they nearly shattered the crystal bones at its joints!

"Die!"

Unable to win after a long struggle, an expression of extreme malice and madness appeared on the monster's half-human, half-skeleton face.

It suddenly opened its huge mouth and let out a roar that shook the Divine Soul.

In the next moment, from within its chest cavity filled with the flesh of Immortal King Guyuan,

Hundreds of millions of writhing flesh chains suddenly shot out!

These chains were not physical.

As soon as they appeared, they ignored spatial distance and physical defense.

Directly penetrating Shen Yuanmo's Chaos Domain and his protective immortal light.

Like poison-tipped needles, they stabbed straight toward his brow's Sea of Consciousness!

This was a Divine Soul attack formed by Immortal King Guyuan sacrificing his immortal soul and fusing it with resentment.

If entangled by any one of these chains, the Divine Soul would be instantly dragged into that endless abyss of resentment.

Completely assimilated, becoming a part of this monster!

This was a certain-kill strike, and an indefensible one!

However, facing this overwhelming Divine Soul attack, Shen Yuanmo's expression did not change in the slightest.

He remained as indifferent as ever, almost to the point of being cold.

"At your wit's end."

He simply uttered four words.

The eighth revolution of the Nine Revolutions Spirit Refining Art was fully activated at this moment!

Buzz—

An invisible yet unimaginably vast Divine Sense power erupted, centered on his brow!

Before the Sea of Consciousness at his brow, it transformed into a slowly rotating, invisible Divine Sense millstone!

The hundreds of millions of menacing flesh chains, the moment they touched the Divine Sense millstone,

Were like snow thrown into lava.

Before they could even let out a scream, they were crushed into pure nothingness by that terrifying grinding force on the spot!

The Divine Soul attack was instantly purified!

"?!"

Within the monster's chaotic consciousness, the emotion of fear appeared for the first time.

And at this moment, Shen Yuanmo, who had been in a state of passive defense and testing, finally stopped the clashing.

He took the initiative to pull back tens of thousands of miles, quietly floating in the void.

Insight into Origin, activate!

In his eyes, this seemingly invincible massive monster—

All its energy flow paths and all the nodes formed by regulations became clearly visible.

Seemingly a single whole, it was actually filled with countless flaws caused by forced Fusion.

Its greatest disguise was that huge beating heart in its chest.

Huge amounts of energy were indeed gathered there, but it was not the core.

The true core was hidden deep within the bone of the half-human face at its brow.

A wisp of weak True Spirit, wrapped in endless resentment and Immortal King Origin, was thoroughly twisted and constantly roaring.

"So it's here."

Shen Yuanmo understood.

He slowly raised the great evolution immortal slaying sword in his hand, its tip pointing from afar at the monster's brow.

He no longer gathered power, nor did he perform any more magnificent Profound Truths.

He simply sank a trace of his mind into the blade.

Exclusive Divine Ability, Dao Slash!

A single sword strike was swung out.

No sword light, no Sword Qi, not even a trace of energy fluctuation was stirred.

This strike seemed to cut into empty space, toward another dimension.

The fused monster also seemed to sense a fatal threat, its massive body struggling frantically.

An unprecedented dark-red light erupted from its surface, forming layers of regulation shields.

But it was all in vain.

An invisible Dao Slash pierced straight through the layers of regulation shields and the indestructible dark-red crystal bone.

It descended directly into the deepest part of the monster's brow bone.

It sliced right through that wisp of twisted True Spirit.

Crack.

It was as if something had been completely severed.

In the sea of stars.

That dark-red crystal bone monster, which was still roaring frantically, had all its movements and sounds come to an abrupt halt at this moment.

Its massive body froze there; the tyranny and madness in its eyes quickly faded, replaced by a deathly empty void.

In the next breath.

Starting from its brow, fine cracks began to spread throughout its body.

"No..."

A faint murmur filled with endless regret and despair drifted out from the fragments of the True Spirit, then completely vanished.

Boom—

The massive crystal bone body, ten million feet tall, could no longer maintain its form.

In the deathly sea of stars, it shattered inch by inch, turning into dark-red ashes flying across the sky.

With a puff of wind, it completely dissipated into nothingness.

Ancient God Abyss, a Daoist lineage passed down for untold hundreds of millions of years since its First Generation Old Ancestor,

Was completely severed today!

...

The sea of stars returned to deathly silence.

Shen Yuanmo sheathed his sword, and the great evolution immortal slaying sword let out a satisfied soft hum.

He slowly closed his eyes, and his majestic Divine Sense, like an invisible tide, instantly covered the Ancient God Abyss below, which had completely turned into ruins.

Soon, he locked onto his target.

Deepest within the earth's veins, dozens of huge shadows were guarded by layers of Restrictions.

Those were the immortal veins accumulated by the Ancient God Abyss over countless ages!

As well as that Scripture Pavilion, which, though damaged, still had its core archive intact.

And the mountain-like piles of various rare divine materials and immortal ores hidden in a different dimension.

Winner takes all!

With a thought from Shen Yuanmo, the Chaos Dao Palace hovering in the distance slowly descended.

He took a step forward and arrived above the ruins of the Ancient God Abyss.

"Rise."

A single word was uttered.

The hundreds of millions of miles of Chaos Domain expanded once more!

This time, the Chaos Domain was no longer used for combat.

Instead, it transformed into invisible giant hands, crudely reaching beneath the broken crust of the Ancient God Abyss!

The earth roared, and the Laws wailed.

Under the forced extraction of the Chaos Domain, immortal veins millions of miles long were dragged out like giant dragons pulled from the ground, wailing!

Countless Jade Slips and rare volumes within the Scripture Pavilion turned into a torrent of knowledge, sucked into the Chaos Domain.

The mountain-like treasury of resources was even swallowed whole along with the spatial fragments!

The entire foundation accumulated by the Ancient God Abyss over countless ages, in just a few dozen breaths,

Was swallowed whole by Shen Yuanmo in the most overbearing and unreasonable manner!

Feeling the hum from within the Chaos Dao Palace caused by the rapid filling of energy and resources.
