301: Chapter 298: Battle with Longtai

In the boundless darkness, all was silent. Within the Void Realm, only two dazzling divine lights collided fiercely.

Divine light shone brightly in Gu Shengsong's double pupils. On the Grand Dao Sword, Dao intent hummed, and killing intent was chilling.

Opposite him, golden divine light also flickered in Long Tai's eyes, like an ocular technique.

As they stood in confrontation, he spoke coldly, "Who exactly are you? Why must you seize my System!"

He had already known Gu Shengsong's purpose, but he didn't understand why Gu Shengsong had to target the System.

Gu Shengsong's lips curled into a smile: "The System is your Opportunity, and it is also this Daoist's Opportunity. Now, this Daoist wants that System. As long as you hand it over, your foundation in this realm and your life can be preserved. Do not bring harm upon yourself!"

Gu Shengsong was as forceful as ever, and his goal was singular: to seize the System.

"I said! Impossible!" Long Tai suddenly exerted force, and shimmering spiritual bodies drifted out from him.

"Nine Dragons Devouring Heaven!"

Those spiritual bodies shot out, actually condensing into nine colossal golden Dragons.

Gu Shengsong's eyes flickered slightly. These nine golden Dragons were formed by drawing upon the Luck of all living beings in a realm. Their power was immense, comparable to the power of a complete Great Dao.

The nine Dragons roared, twisting their Dragon bodies in the sky, swiftly encircling Gu Shengsong. The golden Dragon scales resonated, and a violent energy impact surged outwards, shaking the Void Realm. Endless pressure emerged in the central area.

Gu Shengsong was in the midst of it. Intense energy impacts attacked from all directions, continuously striking him, causing the divine light protecting his body to quickly dim.

Above Gu Shengsong's head, a nine-story Dao Pagoda slowly descended, hovering above him, scattering large swaths of Dao ripples that protected his body.

At this point, the nine spiritual body Dragons could not harm Gu Shengsong at all. However, he sensed that the surrounding danger had not been averted; it seemed there were still unknown perils hidden in the shadows.

As Gu Shengsong scanned with his double pupils, the darkness below grew even deeper. Suddenly, with a roar, a massive, dark purple Dragon opened its maw, instantly swallowing Gu Shengsong along with his energy barrier.

Pei Yuhan and Jin Xi, who were observing the battle from outside through a tearing spatial rift, saw Gu Shengsong being swallowed by the purple Dragon, and both were startled.

Jin Xi's golden Dragon body trembled, and she stepped forward in alarm, saying fearfully, "Master!"

Pei Yuhan, at this moment, was calm. After all, having followed Gu Shengsong for years to conquer seemingly unconquerable enemies, she had grown accustomed to such perilous situations.

She pressed her hand to her head, soothing herself: "Don't worry, the Daoist will definitely be fine. How could he fall so easily?"

Jin Xi's Dragon eyes were filled with worry, but under Pei Yuhan's calming words, she did not rashly charge in. She stood in place, watching the purple energy Dragon coil.

In the Void Realm, the sudden change was truly unpredictable. Gu Shengsong's abrupt descent into darkness caused his expression to turn somewhat grim, but he did not panic. Instead, he released his Divine Thought to investigate the surrounding situation.

This purple energy Dragon was somewhat peculiar. Logically, after being swallowed, he should have been in its abdomen, but according to his investigation, the area he was in was vast and boundless, like a great world, only it was ethereal, without a sky, without land, a void.

Gu Shengsong sensed for a while longer, then his power suddenly erupted. His entire being was like a blazing sun, bright and scorching.

The dark sky was instantly illuminated, and scorching energy was released, colliding and impacting in all directions, the profound energy rapidly expanding within, condensing into a massive energy sphere that quickly expanded in the void space.

"Outsider! Are you ready to perish? I'll give you one last chance. Get out of my world forever and never step foot in it again. If you do, I can still spare your life!"

Above Gu Shengsong's head, countless intricate Dao runes surged, weaving into a net that could descend at any moment.

Facing the threat, Gu Shengsong's eyes were filled with chilling killing intent, and he disdainfully said, "You are merely trying to suppress this Daoist with your own methods, but they have all been ineffective. Why bother with such grand pronouncements about letting this Daoist leave? Whatever means you have, just use them!"

The Dao Law above paused for a moment, then quickly surged, the runes moving at high speed, making their shapes indistinguishable.

"Rumble..."

The Great Dao vibrated, emitting a thunderous sound, terrifying beyond measure.

Were it a slightly weaker Cultivator, or even one below the Dao Integration realm, they would be instantly shattered by the mere vibration of this Great Dao sound.

On the nine-story Dao Pagoda above Gu Shengsong's head, the Dao runes became increasingly dense, condensing into a Dao bead curtain that cascaded downwards, forming a flowing energy waterfall that covered Gu Shengsong's body.

At the same time, the Dao runes in the sky condensed into Dao chains, descending from the sky, bringing with them a series of crisp chain sounds as they shot towards Gu Shengsong.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The chains struck the energy barrier, producing a continuous series of violent impacts. After the chains touched the energy barrier condensed by the nine-story Dao Pagoda, the runes on them fell off one after another, scattering onto the energy barrier and beginning to erode the outer energy barrier.

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle..."

Different types of energy touched each other, constantly eroding, emitting wisps of smoke. The internal energies crushed each other, causing this void space to vibrate violently.

The Dao energies of both sides intertwined and collided, becoming increasingly fierce, and the energy escaping from within became even more terrifying.

Gu Shengsong was inside the energy of the nine-story Dao Pagoda, hearing only the violent explosions outside. As he gazed with his double pupils, he saw densely packed Dao runes everywhere.

This fellow was indeed powerful. The Dao runes he controlled were vast and complex, and when fully unleashed, they were truly formidable.

After a brief observation, Gu Shengsong also began to exert his own power. The Dao energy within his inner Heaven and Earth was activated. The moment the Dao energy of the great world descended, this void Heaven and Earth shook violently, as if struck by some vast existence, and the entire world trembled.

With the augmentation of Gu Shengsong's inner Heaven and Earth's Origin Dao, the nine-story Dao Pagoda instantly transformed.

From its original passive defense, it gradually shifted, and the energy barrier condensed around Gu Shengsong began to expand outwards. The descending Dao chains, under the violent impact of the Great Dao, broke one after another, emitting a series of fierce snaps and explosions.

At the same time, the Grand Dao Sword in Gu Shengsong's hand was also infused with Origin Dao, its power instantly surging. The sharp Sword Qi slashed out, and the space in front of him also crumbled inch by inch, turning into dust.

In the sky, the flowing Dao runes gradually slowed, and their power was no longer what it once was, having been greatly weakened.
