890: Zhang Luoxiu recovered and besieged Li Wuji.
A vast, boundless torrent of dark red energy, like a hundred rivers returning to the sea, surged frantically and resolutely toward the broken figure in the sky!
This energy torrent was so massive and pure that it even formed a dark red pillar of blood in the sky, forged from the lives of Demonic Beasts, connecting heaven and earth!
Within the blood pillar, countless phantoms of Demonic Beasts seemed to roar silently, finally merging into Luo Xiu's body without looking back!
"Ugh, aaaaaah—!!!"
Luo Xiu's body trembled violently! A roar billions of times more painful than when he was besieged by the lords earlier erupted from the depths of his throat!
This was not a simple infusion of energy!
This was the lives, Souls, and wills of millions of creatures forcibly merging into his body in an instant!
It was forcibly using a massive, mixed life Origin to fill and ignite his nearly extinguished Divine Demon Fire!
His body was like a container being forcibly stretched; his skin cracked inch by inch, and his bones let out groans of being overwhelmed!
His newly born dark-gold flesh and blood constantly shattered and forcibly healed under the impact of the violent energy!
Dark-gold blood mixed with the newly surging dark red energy, gushing out from the wounds all over his body like a waterfall!
Pain!
Soul-tearing pain!
But in this extreme pain, an unimaginable, violent power that could make the heavens and earth change color was frantically breeding, condensing, and roaring within his broken body!
Behind him, the divine demon phantom that had long since dissipated condensed once again under the infusion of the dark red blood pillar, like a blood-soaked demon god!
This time, the phantom was no longer pure dark gold, but was stained with a thick layer of Blood-Fiend Qi, becoming even more hideous and fierce!
The phantom's heterochromatic eyes were like two burning suns, staring fixedly at the chaotic Void Channel in the sky!
The Four Demon Generals knelt inside the Rainbow Fortress, watching the millions of their comrades below vanish like bubbles, watching their King endure inhuman pain and Rebirth amidst blood and fire; their eyes were nearly bursting, and they were choked with tears.
Their nails dug deep into their palms, dripping with blood, yet they felt no pain, only endless sorrow and an extreme desire for power!
Yue Shan watched all this silently, his face under the rainbow light incredibly solemn.
He felt the terrifying power awakening within Luo Xiu, a mixture of the divine demon Origin and the life essence of millions of Demonic Beasts.
That power was full of destruction and ill omen, but it also carried a heart-palpitating resoluteness.
Finally, when the last trace of the dark red life torrent was forcibly taken into Luo Xiu's body, and when the last silent roar of the Demonic Beasts faded into nothingness.
A strange, heart-palpitating emptiness appeared on the battlefield below!
The millions-strong Demon Beast Army, except for the Four Demon Generals, had completely vanished!
Only the shattered Zerg corpses all over the ground and the horrified gazes of the warriors from various races remained, proving their former existence!
In the air, Luo Xiu stopped roaring.
He stood up slowly and with extreme stability.
The tattered Divine Demon Armor covered his body, flowing with a strange luster of interwoven dark gold and dark red, like a demon god who had just crawled out of blood-pool Hell.
The hideous wounds on his body were actually squirming and forcibly closing at a visible speed under the impact of the violent life energy!
Although still covered in scars, blood no longer flowed out.
His gold and dark heterochromatic eyes had now completely turned into two burning blood moons!
Cold, cruel, containing a crazed will to destroy everything and—a power sufficient to shake the heavens and earth!
He lowered his head slightly, looking at his clenched fist covered by a Vambrace.
His fingers slowly tightened.
Crackle—!
The Void Realm around his fist was instantly covered in spider-web-like pitch-black cracks, like fragile glass!
A terrifying aura, more violent and fierce than his previous peak, mixed with towering Blood-Fiend Qi and divine demon majesty, erupted like a sleeping apocalyptic Vicious Beast fully awakening, sweeping in all directions!
He slowly raised his head, his eyes burning with blood moons piercing through the chaotic space, locking onto the entrance of the Void Channel that was slowly closing in the sky, as well as the streaks of light fighting frantically at the entrance.
A cold, raspy voice, like the friction of metal, rang out across the deathly silent battlefield with a rhythm of destruction.
"Now... it is this King's turn."
Buzz~
Above a plain, a Dragon-shaped phantom broke through the air and fled at a speed difficult to capture with the naked eye.
Almost simultaneously, Li Wuji and the Lord of Chaos appeared one after another, their target being the Star Core that had already appeared at the center of the Dragon-shaped phantom's forehead.
Li Wuji flew like a silver lightning bolt at high speed, his eyes fixed only on the Five-Clawed Divine Dragon phantom made of pure energy ahead.
"Almost there!"
Li Wuji shouted inwardly; he could feel that the First Emperor of Qin's final will was guiding the Star Core, but that will was rapidly dissipating, and the Star Core itself was in a masterless, extremely unstable high-energy state!
Just as he was about to touch the dragon tail phantom, thunder, hurricanes, and pitch-black Curse Power constantly gathered in his raised hand, turning into countless profound runic chains, preparing to forcibly bind the Star Core.
"Leave the Star Core, Li Wuji!"
The Lord of Chaos's cold and furious roar was like a physical sound wave, carrying Chaos Energy as it slammed heavily behind Li Wuji!
Simultaneously, several writhing and changing pitch-black tentacles condensed from pure Chaos Law tore through the spatial turbulence, coiling toward Li Wuji's legs like poisonous pythons!
Li Wuji's figure suddenly stalled, and he had to distract himself to block the attacks from behind and the coiling tentacles.
Sharp slashes were constantly unleashed, instantly severing the approaching tentacles.
"My Lord, I have come to assist you!"
A steady voice suddenly rang out, and then Emperor Soul's figure actually arrived first, appearing beside the Lord of Chaos in the blink of an eye.
Emperor Soul's goal was extremely clear—the Star Core Dragon phantom that had lost the guidance of the First Emperor of Qin's will and begun to become somewhat scattered!
A fervent light flashed in his eyes, and a giant claw covered in hard insect armor and wreathed in golden light, carrying the power to imprison space, grabbed fiercely at the Star Core itself!
"Emperor Soul! Well done!"
The Lord of Chaos was overjoyed and pushed his power even more frantically to suppress Li Wuji.
"Don't even think about it!"
A cold light burst from Li Wuji's eyes as he forcibly shook off some of the Chaos tentacles. A silver beam condensed to the extreme, like a heaven-opening divine sword, instantly crossed space and arrived first, slashing heavily at Emperor Soul's claw that was reaching for the Star Core!
Boom—!
The silver slash collided with Emperor Soul's insect claw!
Violent energy exploded, briefly clearing the surrounding spatial turbulence!
Emperor Soul groaned, cracks appeared on the hard shell of his insect claw, and his grabbing motion was interrupted!
However, at the moment of this collision, the Star Core Dragon phantom, which had lost the precise guidance of the First Emperor of Qin's will, seemed to be affected by the energy impact; it let out a mournful cry, its massive dragon body trembled violently, and it actually became somewhat illusory and unstable!
The starlight surrounding the Star Core also fluctuated violently!
