279: Authentic and fake

On the other side, Ye Kong also battled Wuliang Shen, who manipulated the Five Elements Power. However, this Asura True Body, despite its immense strength, placed a great burden on the body, making it difficult to control.

Soon after, Ye Kong was once again sent flying by Wuliang Shen, tumbling in the air for a while before regaining his footing.

Ye Kong sustained no injuries; instead, he grew more proficient in mastering the power of his Asura True Body.

Ye Kong's eyes occasionally glanced at the Shura Main Body, who was locked in an intense battle with Mieshi Shen, comprehending his blade techniques.

It seemed that with every swing of the Shura Main Body's blade, there was an embodiment of the Profound Truths of Heaven's Punishment, Man's Punishment, and Earth's Punishment, which greatly benefited Ye Kong.

"Swoosh!" Ye Kong's figure flickered, and he once again traversed the Void Realm, charging towards Wuliang Shen.

"Bang!" But the result was the same. With a casual sword strike, Wuliang Shen tore through space, forcing Ye Kong, who was traversing the Void Realm, out and sending him back empty-handed.

Ye Kong possessed the strength of an Asura True Body, but his combat experience was ultimately insufficient, and his use of Asura Power was still too crude to form effective combat prowess.

However, Ye Kong did not become disheartened by this and continued to charge fearlessly towards Wuliang Shen.

Because the Shura Main Body was entangled with Mieshi Shen, and another Black-Robed God had also gone to assist Mieshi Shen—after all, Mieshi Shen was not truly an Ancient God, and required the help of two gods to unleash the Annihilation Law.

Wuliang Shen was unable to kill Ye Kong with a single blow. Instead, Ye Kong continuously grew stronger, gradually posing a certain threat to him.

Thus, the Shura Main Body fought two against one, battling the newly born Mieshi Shen and another Black-Robed God.

Ye Kong, meanwhile, used the power of his Asura True Body to contend with Wuliang Shen. They turned the sky outside the Imperial City into a horrific sight, and the earth was also affected, with ruins, broken walls, and even the earth's ley lines suffering damage.

In the distance, Jiang Huang, who had already led her army out of the Imperial City, looked towards the distant mountains.

General Zhen Guo, who was beside her, asked, "Is that Ye Kong fighting in the distance? Should we go to his aid?"

Jiang Huang watched the strange phenomena appearing on the distant mountains for a moment and said, "No, if I go alone, the Imperial City Army, lacking divine protection, would be in extreme danger."

"If I bring all of you along, once Mieshi Shen unleashes the Annihilation Law, the army will instantly be left dead in the wilderness."

"I have already invited Ye Kong to come with us, but he refused. I believe he knows exactly what he is doing."

"For the sake of our Imperial City Army, we must retreat as quickly as possible." After speaking, Jiang Huang led the Imperial City Army away without looking back.

Ye Kong's original intention in confronting Mieshi Shen was to test his true strength, but he unexpectedly found himself in an uncontrollable situation, and a god-level battle erupted directly between them.

Above the distant mountains of the Imperial City, the two Shura continued to fight fiercely with the Black-Robed God, but the atmosphere was no longer as cautious as before; both sides had begun to fight desperately.

"Ye Kong, quickly hand over the Demon-Sealing Soul-Devouring Slash, and I will let you leave. Otherwise, just wait to turn into dust!" Mieshi Shen said with a stern expression and murderous intent.

"Never!" How could Ye Kong possibly agree? Handing over his weapon would be disarming himself and not being killed. How was that different from surrendering?

"It seems you won't shed tears until you see the coffin!" Mieshi Shen's face grew even sterner, as if covered in a layer of frost.

The blood blade in Ye Kong's hand was the weapon of an Ancient God, the previous Mieshi Shen. If Ye Kong were to escape, finding such an opportunity again in the future would be a pipe dream, with a zero chance of success.

After hearing Ye Kong's reply, Mieshi Shen's figure flickered, and a vast aura surged skyward.

Beneath that Annihilation Law, a violent Evil Qi gradually emerged, and a symbol of nothingness flickered within the Evil Qi, echoing Mieshi Shen from afar, making his solemn and dignified figure appear eerie and sinister.

Four long swords, imbued with killing power, appeared around Mieshi Shen. These four long swords closely resembled the Demon-Sealing Soul-Devouring Slash in Ye Kong's hand. As the four swords emerged, a dense Evil Qi and raging malevolence instantly permeated the area around Mieshi Shen.

"Slash!" Mieshi Shen uttered a low cry in his heart.

The four killing swords tore through the sky, glowing red and exuding rolling Evil Qi as they flew towards Ye Kong.

At the same time, Mieshi Shen did not stop there but moved closer to Yuan Lei.

The Shura Main Body reacted intensely to Mieshi Shen's movement. Seeing Mieshi Shen act, he intended to pursue and kill him, but was blocked by the two Black-Robed Gods, and the two sides immediately engaged in battle again.

Mieshi Shen had mastered the Annihilation Law, and these four long swords were imitations of the Demon-Sealing Soul-Devouring Slash.

Mieshi Shen had already comprehended the Profound Truths within the Annihilation Law regarding how to use the blood blade. He integrated the comprehended Annihilation Sword Formation into himself, which was an extremely dangerous act. A slight mistake would lead to eternal damnation.

The Annihilation Sword Formation, condensed from Evil Qi, attacked Ye Kong from four directions, carrying surging malevolence and reaching Ye Kong in a flash.

These four Annihilation Swords were far more vicious than Wuliang Shen's Five Elements Divine Swords. Once struck, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The blood Evil Qi and Thunder Light collided, causing sparks to fly.

Ye Kong was already surrounded by Evil Qi, and space was blocked, leaving him with no escape but to face it head-on.

Looking at the four Annihilation Swords that had already reached him, Ye Kong's lips curved slightly, revealing a hint of a smile.

"Just now, I was hit by Wuliang Shen's Five Elements Power, making my body difficult to move and preventing me from using the Great Path Divine Lightning. Now that the Asura True Body has manifested, all Laws can be used!" Ye Kong chuckled coldly in his heart.

"Boom!" A startling peal of thunder shot skyward. A flash of Thunder Light appeared in Ye Kong's hand, and then, with a flicker, Ye Kong's figure seemed to sway slightly.

"Crack!"

The four Annihilation Swords charging towards Ye Kong suddenly exploded. The Thunder Light split the four swords in two, instantly devouring them, and the Evil Qi permeating around Ye Kong also continuously dissipated within the Thunder Light.

These four Annihilation Swords were ultimately condensed from killing Qi and were not true Demon-Sealing Soul-Devouring Slashes, unable to fully display the demonic might of the Annihilation Sword Formation.

Furthermore, Mieshi Shen did not dare to truly integrate the Annihilation Sword Formation into his flesh and blood. He merely used certain methods to temporarily integrate it into himself through divine runes and the Great Dao, but this was already incredibly bold and astonishing. In any case, Ye Kong would not dare to do such a thing.

"Boom!" Just then, Mieshi Shen's vicious palms struck towards Ye Kong. The sky was instantly shattered by his palms, and a Void Realm black hole was pushed by him, pressing down on Ye Kong.

Ye Kong did not hesitate in the slightest. The Thunder Light in his hand shot skyward, cutting towards the Void Realm black hole. With a crisp sound, the Void Realm black hole was actually sliced in half by the Thunder Light, which shone brightly!
