205: Chapter 205 A draw? No, I won!

The Boundary Sea was deathly silent.

At this moment, time was stretched into two parallel lines.

One line was a violent, scorching golden divine pillar destined to smash through the Universe.

The other line was an introverted, icy gray sword mark destined to erase existence itself.

Boom—!! Hiss—!! Two sounds, completely different yet both containing the ultimate Profound Truth of the Dao, exploded simultaneously against that Dark Canopy which had never been shaken before!

Sun Wukong's heaven-destroying and earth-shattering strike with his golden cudgel landed solidly on the left side of the Dark Canopy!

Heaven and earth collapsed.

Pure power, the ultimate demonstration of challenging the rules.

The moment the golden cudgel, carrying the immense power of billions of tons, touched the canopy, it transformed into the simplest, crudest, and most effective physical impact.

Visible to the naked eye, that tough black barrier woven from countless fallen Laws instantly buckled inward at the point of impact, like glass struck by a hammer!

Crack—! Huge, spiderweb-like cracks spread wildly in all directions from the point of impact!

The billions of vengeful Souls imprisoned on the canopy to serve as energy sources were crushed by the violent power before they could even wail under the terrifying shockwave. Their Soul bodies were shattered into the purest particles of Soul Power and completely evaporated by the dispersing Law of Force.

The entire Devils Island trembled violently under this strike! A planet was hit head-on, causing terrifying tectonic displacement!

Almost at the same time, on the right side of the canopy, Li Changsheng's unremarkable gray sword mark also silently imprinted itself.

There was no explosion, no light, not even a ripple of energy. It felt like a spring breeze brushing over a lake surface.

The scene that followed, however, terrified the three Demonic Lords' Souls even more than Sun Wukong's heaven-destroying strike!

Hiss… It was like the sharpest scalpel slicing through the softest skin.

The moment that seemingly fragile gray sword mark touched the Dark Canopy, it sliced through to the end without any obstruction, incredibly smoothly! From top to bottom, from outside to inside.

What it severed was not the physical entity of the canopy. It was the "Logic" that constituted this canopy, the "Law" operating behind it!

In the face of the supreme "End" attribute of the Zhu Xian Sword Intent, fallen Laws and vengeful Soul curses were all meaningless concepts.

Where the sword mark passed, all dark Law chains were severed at the root, disintegrated, and returned to nothingness. The moment the twisted vengeful Soul runes touched the aura of the Sword Intent, they were like encountering a natural enemy; the poisonous resentment in their eyes was instantly purified, their faces showed relief, and they dissipated into wisps of green smoke.

One was a massive physical explosion, destroying the structure from the outside. The other was a silent disintegration of Laws, dissolving the Foundation from the inside.

One hard and one soft, one Yang and one Yin, they achieved equally shocking and terrifying battle results that far exceeded expectations.

With Sun Wukong's strike, a giant hole with a diameter of a million miles was smashed into the canopy, and broken Laws and fragments of vengeful Souls splattered like a rainstorm!

With Li Changsheng's sword, a straight, smooth, and terrifying gash was cut into the canopy, extending from the top to the horizon!

The two huge gaps, like scars torn into the black curtain, allowed external light to shine into this sinful island of eternal darkness for the first time.

That was not sunlight, but the brilliant starlight of the zhou tian star boat.

But to the dark creatures of Devils Island, this light was more dazzling than the hottest sun, making them fearful and uneasy!

"No… Impossible!!!" The Lord of Fear's twisted shadow let out a roar that tore at Divine Souls. There was no longer any mockery or arrogance in its voice, only pure shock and panic!

The Dark Canopy was their pride and reliance, the Foundation of Devils Island's occupation of the Boundary Sea for countless epochs.

They had imagined countless possibilities of the canopy being breached: ground down by Magic Treasures of Immortal King-level peers, or bombarded by forbidden spells from dozens of Immortal Domain coalition armies.

But they never dreamed that this absolute defense would actually… be pierced through by two wet-behind-the-ears brats on the other side, one strike each?! One used a cudgel, one used a sword! In less than a single breath!

This wasn't just a slap in the face; this was pressing their faces into the ground and grinding them repeatedly with soles made of Chaos divine iron!

Compared to the enemy's sheer terror, the Heavenly Court Fleet side was silent for a few seconds before erupting into earth-shattering cheers!

"We won! We won!"

"The Fighting Buddha is invincible!"

"His Highness Changsheng is invincible!"

Millions of Heavenly Soldiers and Generals waved their weapons, their faces flushed with excitement.

The majesty of that strike and the peerless nature of that sword were deeply imprinted into the depths of everyone's Divine Soul.

Too strong! This was the top combat power of the Heavenly Court! This was His Majesty's… offspring, capable of making the heavens tremble!

Sun Wukong retrieved his golden cudgel and shouldered it again. The heaven-destroying and earth-shattering strike just now had consumed a massive amount of energy, and he couldn't help but pant a few times.

He looked at the large hole he had smashed, then at the smooth, giant gash next to it; his monkey face was both proud and somewhat dissatisfied.

He was proud that he hadn't lost to that arrogant little brat. He was dissatisfied because it seemed… he hadn't won either. A draw? Damn it! Old Sun had been charging up for so long just to regain face in front of him, and the result was a draw?

Sun Wukong held his breath, just about to declare his battle achievement. At this moment, a sudden change occurred!

Everyone thought Li Changsheng's attack had ended. However, the gray sword mark that had slashed open the Dark Canopy did not dissipate immediately.

It seemed to have a life of its own, trembling slightly at the smooth cut. Immediately after! Swish, swish, swish… That thin gray sword mark suddenly exploded, transforming into thousands of gray Sword Qi trails like swimming fish!

Each of these Sword Qi trails contained a trace of pure Zhu Xian Sword Intent. While their power was far inferior to the main body, to creatures below the Daluo level, they were still a lethal strike that meant death upon contact!

The Sword Qi was like rain, flying nowhere else but straight through the giant gash, like a flock of swallows returning to their nest, pouring into the interior of Devils Island all at once!

A silent and efficient massacre unfolded.

Under the Dark Canopy, tens of thousands of dark garrison troops were stationed to maintain the operation of the Formation. Most were True Immortal and Golden Immortal-level dark creatures who had just been mocking the impregnability of the canopy. At this moment, their mocking laughter was forever frozen on their faces.

The torrent of gray Sword Qi, with speed that transcended time and space, instantly swept across the entire defensive zone. There were no screams, no resistance.

The moment those arrogant dark garrison troops touched the gray Sword Qi, both their Physical Bodies and Divine Souls were directly erased at the root, leaving no trace behind.

One breath. After the sword rain, the massive military camp under the canopy, which had originally been densely packed like an anthill, became… empty. It was as if those tens of thousands of garrison troops had never existed.

Deathly silence. Heavenly Court, Devils Island, all the creatures who saw this scene were petrified on the spot.

"This… this… My heavens…" Sun Wukong's mouth was open wide enough to fit a watermelon, pointing at the cleared area, stuttering, unable to say a complete sentence.

His strike was fierce and massive, indeed breaking the turtle shell. Li Changsheng's sword, however, was insidious… no, tricky to the extreme!

One sword, double kill! No, one sword, ten thousand kills! While breaking the defense, he also conveniently cleared a wave of minions! How the fuck is this supposed to be a competition?!

Just as Sun Wukong fell into deep self-doubt, Li Changsheng withdrew his gaze. On his cold, aloof face, for the first time, a faint, almost imperceptible smile appeared.

He turned his head, looked at the dazed monkey beside him, and said indifferently: "I killed more troops than you." "This round, I won."

Boom—! To Sun Wukong, these plain words were no less than a Chaos Divine Thunder exploding in his brain!

He was stunned, and then, an uncontrollable rage surged from the soles of his feet straight to his crown!

Lost? Old Sun actually lost?! And lost to this sinister little brat?! Lost in the area he was most proud of, his "destructive power"?!

"Wahayayaya—!!!" Sun Wukong's suppressed rage exploded completely! He was so angry that his golden fur stood on end, his monkey face turned the color of a pig's liver, he jumped up and down, scratched his ears and cheeks, yet couldn't find a reason to refute it! He really did kill more than him! He couldn't compare!

At this moment, "first merit" and "competition" were all thrown to the nine heavens! Only one thought remained in his mind! Kill! Kill them all! Kill ten times, a hundred times more than this little brat! Regain Old Sun's face!

"Little brat! You cheated! You just wait for me!!!" With a roar that shook the heavens, Sun Wukong transformed all his pent-up frustration and anger into monstrous Battle Intent!

With a fierce stomp, he transformed into a brilliant golden stream of light and, without the slightest hesitation, dove headfirst through the giant hole he had smashed into the perilous interior of Devils Island!

A violent roar echoed from within the island: "Little ones! Your Monkey Grandpa is here! Wash your necks, line up, and wait to be smashed!!!"

On the imperial throne, Li Xuan watched this dramatic scene and finally couldn't help but laugh heartily. "Interesting, interesting." This was the effect he wanted.

He waved his hand, and his majestic, grand voice spread throughout the entire Heavenly Court Fleet. "All troops, attack!" "Flatten this island for me!"
