271: Mayfly glimpses the sky

Under the dual offensive of the daluo dao sword and the Blood Thunder Longspear, the massive Kongyuan Heavenly Tower vibrated violently, its divine light flickering erratically.

Tian Yusong inside flapped his four pairs of large wings fiercely, leaped out of the Kongyuan Heavenly Tower, and placed his large hand upon it.

"Rumble..."

The vibration of the Kongyuan Heavenly Tower intensified, but this time it was not due to the influence of the daluo dao sword and the Blood Thunder Longspear, but summoned by Tian Yusong.

The massive Kongyuan Heavenly Tower began to shrink, eventually becoming a small tower twenty centimeters tall, which fell into Tian Yusong's hand.

At this moment, Gu Shengge also shattered the World Gravity surging from all directions, burst out of the Cage, and stood before Tian Yusong.

The Blood Thunder Longspear and the daluo dao sword landed in his hands, while the nine-layered dao pagoda hovered above his head.

He faced Tian Yusong from afar, not being at a disadvantage.

Tian Yusong looked at the young man before him, his expression very complex.

"Gu Shengge, there is no direct enmity between us. Must you fight until one of us dies before stopping? The Kongyuan Realm is currently ravaged by war; is this what you wish to see?"

Gu Shengge looked down at the battle raging below, his eyes filled with coldness: "They are not Cultivators from my Qiongsang Domain, so what does it have to do with me? When you decided to invade the Qiongsang Domain back then, did you ever consider that this day would come?"

A cold light flickered in Tian Yusong's eyes, and he said solemnly, "But we did not succeed, did we?"

Gu Shengge became somewhat annoyed. If failing a plan could erase all sins, that would be too ridiculous!

He roared, "But many innocent people died, didn't they?"

Tian Yusong became even more agitated than him, "They are just some Lowly Ants, and besides, the ones who died were not Cultivators under the jurisdiction of your Qiankun Taoist Sect. Why bother standing up for them!"

Gu Shengge burst into laughter, "Then I apologize, the Qiankun Taoist Sect is the leader of the Righteous Path in the Qiongsang Domain. Logically, after Emperor Yang kicks the bucket, it should be my turn to take over, so I really must stand up for them!"

Gu Shengge suddenly launched an attack. The Runes on the God-Slaying Spear in his hand were dense, covered in blood lightning, erupting with a fierce energy impact.

"Rumble..."

Thunder exploded, and terrifying divine light of energy flickered in his hand, suddenly igniting a bright beam of divine energy light.

"Crack!"

The blood-colored lightning shot out like an arrow piercing the heavens, suddenly stabbing toward Tian Yusong's brow, giving him no opportunity whatsoever.

Suffering the attack, Tian Yusong's face suddenly turned extremely grim. Spiritual energy surged on his body, accumulating on the Kongyuan Heavenly Tower held in his hand.

"Buzz!"

The Kongyuan Heavenly Tower directly erupted with dazzling divine energy light, releasing a white beam that instantly swept toward the incoming blood lightning.

The two streams of energy collided in the middle and then burst open violently. The terrifying energy intertwined and devoured each other. Amidst the flashing divine light, the ones who released them also rushed to the forefront.

Gu Shengge and Tian Yusong charged towards each other simultaneously. Tian Yusong's massive wings transformed into eight sharp blades, circling around him, and launched a fierce assault on Gu Shengge as they approached.

"Clang, clang, clang!"

Gu Shengge's Blood Thunder Longspear and daluo dao sword flashed with divine light, fiercely clashing with those blades. Divine light flickered in his Vertical Pupils. Even though the blade-like wings attacked in tricky and difficult ways every time, Gu Shengge could predict them every time, blocking the attacks, and occasionally counter-attacking Tian Yusong, leaving Tian Yusong quite flustered.

Tian Yusong summoned the Kongyuan Heavenly Tower, and the palm-sized tower body suppressed towards Gu Shengge. Gu Shengge likewise brought out the nine-layered dao pagoda. These three Dao Artifacts, born alongside his world, were incomparably powerful, and he did not fear even the Great Dao Root of the Kongyuan Realm.

Seeing that the nine-layered dao pagoda could actually block his Kongyuan Heavenly Tower, Tian Yusong's eyes were filled with disbelief. In a one-on-one confrontation, his Kongyuan Heavenly Tower could not overcome Gu Shengge's Magic Treasure—how was this possible?

He was extremely reluctant to believe it, but the facts were laid out before him, leaving him no choice but to accept them.

After hesitating for a long time, he said with a dark face, "Gu Shengge, I will absolutely not lose!"

He quickly formed a hand seal, and white divine light erupted from the Kongyuan Heavenly Tower, annihilating the entire Kongyuan Realm.

In the vast whiteness of the world, Gu Shengge heard countless piercing screams—some human, some Yao Beast, and even some unknown creatures—their cries sharp and ear-piercing.

Shortly after, countless lines of blood surged toward the Kongyuan Heavenly Tower, gradually converging into a river of blood that surged forth.

During this process, the power of the Kongyuan Heavenly Tower grew increasingly terrifying. It even specially released an energy barrier to protect Tian Yusong within.

With the augmentation of the Life Essence and cultivation of those living beings, the power of the Kongyuan Heavenly Tower surged, even surpassing its state before Gu Shengge had severed its Dao assistance.

Although the nine-layered dao pagoda could still barely resist, everyone could see that it wouldn't hold out much longer.

Across from him, Tian Yusong's gaze was deep, and he sneered, "Gu Shengge, how about that? I can always suppress you. Today will be your death date!"

Gu Shengge's eyes were full of disdain, "Whether it is my death date, I don't know, but it will definitely be yours!"

Tian Yusong laughed wildly, "Hahaha! Ridiculous! Now that my Kongyuan Heavenly Tower has absorbed so much vitality and cultivation, do you think you are still my match? Since you are so stubborn, I will let you witness the current power of the Kongyuan Heavenly Tower!"

As he spoke, he urged the Kongyuan Heavenly Tower, injecting massive amounts of energy into it. Instantly, the Kongyuan Heavenly Tower began to emit dazzling divine light. Inside, Runes flickered, alternating between brightness and darkness, and the rules of the Great Dao emerged, launching a full-scale suppression against the nine-layered dao pagoda.

Under the suppression of the Kongyuan Heavenly Tower, the body of the nine-layered dao pagoda began to flicker, constantly shifting between illusion and reality, as if it could disappear at any moment.

Seeing this, Gu Shengge understood that before he injected World Power, the nine-layered dao pagoda probably couldn't withstand the Kongyuan Heavenly Tower.

In that case, this thing could only be cheapened for the jade disc of creation.

Gu Shengge activated the jade disc of creation. Its ancient texture, still bearing cracks, caused the Kongyuan Heavenly Tower to actually tremble the moment it appeared, as if a mouse had seen a cat.

Tian Yusong's face was gloomy. He had already sensed the strangeness of the Kongyuan Heavenly Tower, but having fought this far, he had no retreat.

"Attack for this Lord! Suppress and kill Gu Shengge!"

"Buzz!"

The Kongyuan Heavenly Tower shook violently, and the Dao energy within it fully erupted, launching a full-force assault.

Gu Shengge calmly pushed the jade disc of creation forward.

Simultaneously, the ancient and primordial rules of the Great Dao within the jade disc of creation bloomed. Amidst the white light, the opposing Kongyuan Heavenly Tower and Tian Yusong only felt as if they had been transported to a different time and space, as if they were immersed in the Primordial Era, where everything around them felt primitive, mysterious, and powerful.

They felt like mayflies peeking at the Azure Sky. (End of this chapter)
