228: Chapter 228 Fierce Battle with Digulov!

-356,887,451!

A massive damage number popped up above his head. Although not fatal, it caused his movements to stiffen.

Di Gulov whipped his head around, his hollow eyes igniting with a truly monstrous rage for the first time as he stared fixedly toward the source of the fracture.

There, the space rippled like water as a figure slowly stepped out.

It was Lu Yin!

"You... have finally come."

Di Gulov's voice was low, yet it caused the atmospheric pressure of the entire battlefield to plummet.

Lu Yin pointed the blade of annihilation diagonally toward the ground, the eerie light on its blade intertwining with the silver radiance of the sword of time and space.

He didn't answer, only slightly turning his head to speak to the people behind him.

"Grandfather, Elder Bai, you two retreat and recover first."

"Arrogant!"

Di Gulov's bone wings suddenly vibrated, and all the shattered bone spurs within his domain instantly levitated, transforming into billions of pale arrows.

"This Emperor shall make you understand what the true power of an Abyssal Sovereign is!"

"Skeletal Star Rain!"

Bone spurs poured down like a galaxy, each one entwined with wailing resentful souls.

Lu Yin simply raised his sword and traced an arc: "Space-Time Barrier."

The silver light screen unfolded. The moment the torrent of bone spurs hit the screen, their speed dropped sharply, as if they had fallen into a viscous swamp of time.

Meanwhile, Lu Yin's figure had already vanished from the spot.

"Momentary Eternity!"

Silver radiance bloomed around Di Gulov. In the instant time and space froze, Lu Yin's blade had already reached his chest.

But just as the tip of the sword touched the bone armor, a hint of mockery flashed in Di Gulov's eyes.

"Paltry tricks."

The dark red runes on the bone armor surrounding him suddenly lit up, and the frozen time and space were actually forcibly distorted! The bone wings swept toward Lu Yin's neck like razor-sharp blades!

"Space-Time Conversion!"

Lu Yin swapped positions with a distant flying boulder. The space where he had originally been was torn into pitch-black cracks by the bone wings.

He frowned slightly. Because of the level difference, his time-space power had very little effect on Di Gulov.

"Your time-space power is nothing more than a firefly compared to the bright moon within this Emperor's Bone Emperor Domain!"

Di Gulov's voice was ice-cold as the six pairs of bone wings behind him fully unfurled, blotting out the sky.

The dark red runes on the bone wings writhed like living creatures, and the pressure of the entire domain suddenly doubled.

Lu Yin could feel the surrounding time and space becoming as viscous as glue; even the simplest movement became exceptionally difficult.

This wasn't spatial power, but pure suppression of strength.

Di Gulov's strength, even without the support of the Abyssal Passage, was still far beyond his imagination.

Chi chi chi!

The moment Di Gulov finished speaking, countless bone spurs attacked, carrying ear-piercing shrieks.

Lu Yin's figure retreated rapidly, the blade of annihilation tracing a dense web of sword light in front of him, striking down the pursuing bone spurs one by one.

But every bone spur contained terrifyingly massive force, shaking his hands until they went numb.

-1,547,871! -1,654,321!

Even though Lu Yin was parrying, damage numbers continued to pop up, and his health kept dropping.

Di Gulov's suppression effect was growing stronger, making his movements several times slower than usual.

"Time-Space Rewind!"

Silver light flashed, and Lu Yin's state returned to what it was three seconds ago. His health was full, and his skill cooldowns were restored.

But Di Gulov's offensive didn't pause for a second. His six pairs of bone wings were fully unfurled, dark red runes flowing.

"Skeletal Cage!"

The void suddenly split open, and countless thick bones instantly trapped Lu Yin in the center.

The bones interlaced to form a cage, each one emitting an aura that imprisoned the soul.

"Annihilation Slash!"

Lu Yin didn't hesitate, injecting a large amount of soul of death into the blade of annihilation. A pitch-black sword beam struck the weakest point of the bone cage.

-85,632,411!

The bone cage shattered, but Di Gulov had already charged in front of him.

A palm covered in bone armor lunged straight for Lu Yin's throat, its fingertips swirling with a gray aura of decay that withered all things.

"Momentary Eternity!"

Time froze once more, and Lu Yin narrowly dodged by turning his body.

Strands of hair were sliced off by the wind from the palm, drifting into the air.

"It's useless. Your time-space power has limited effect on this Emperor."

Di Gulov's voice was cold. His bone wings vibrated, and his speed surged once again.

Lu Yin's gaze was solemn. He instantly converted his attributes to Agility, his figure turning into an afterimage as he wove through the bone spurs.

The sword of time and space levitated by his side, constantly slashing out silver sword light to interfere with Di Gulov's pursuit.

"Death Coil!"

Pitch-black energy coiled toward Di Gulov like a venomous snake, but it was easily shaken off by the bone armor surrounding him.

"Paltry tricks."

Di Gulov snorted in disdain. His bone wings flapped violently, and countless bone spurs shot toward all of Lu Yin's evasion routes like a rainstorm.

Lu Yin's eyes narrowed as he simultaneously activated a skill.

"Space-Time Barrier!"

A silver light screen unfolded in front of him, but Di Gulov's attack was too violent. The Space-Time Barrier only held for half a second before cracks appeared.

"It's useless, ant!"

Di Gulov sneered. The runes on his bone wings lit up, and the power of the bone spurs increased again.

Crack!

The Space-Time Barrier shattered completely, and the remaining bone spurs continued to fly toward Lu Yin.

From the moment the fight began, Lu Yin had been suppressed by Di Gulov.

This made Lu Yin realize that defeating Di Gulov relying only on his own strength was unlikely.

He no longer hesitated and pressed his palm against the void.

Three pitch-black magic circles intertwined, and three majestic figures appeared.

They were Lin Xiao, Luo Xiu, and Shaka.

The moment the three of them appeared, the air of the entire battlefield seemed to freeze for an instant.

For the first time, Di Gulov's habitually indifferent pupils constricted violently.

He could clearly feel that each of these three suddenly appearing beings emitted a terrifying aura that he had to take seriously!

"Sword Domain: Sky Split!"

Lin Xiao swung the god slaying sword, and countless longswords condensed from magic power collided fiercely with the incoming bone spurs.

Almost at the same time, Shaka, on the other side, pressed his hands together. His gold cloth radiated ten thousand zhang of brilliant light.

He didn't take any offensive stance but merely chanted in a low voice. The Buddhist chanting sounded as if it came from beyond the nine heavens.

"Bodhi Buddha Kingdom!"

Countless Buddha shadows emerged from the void—some sitting, some standing, some wrathful, and some merciful—together constructing a solemn and sacred Buddhist Pure Land.

Wherever the Buddha light passed, those crazily stabbing bone spurs dissolved and disintegrated like snow meeting its nemesis.

The suppression of Di Gulov's Bone Emperor Domain was actually forcibly pushed back to open up a new world by this sudden Buddha Kingdom!

"Mad Blood!"

At the same time, Luo Xiu also took action.

He cast a buff on himself, and his entire body was instantly enveloped in a towering blood-colored aura.

"Mountain-Collapsing Earth-Rending Slash!"

He then suddenly catapulted into the air, the Blood Abyss Greatsword in his hand hacking down with the momentum to shatter the earth.

"Heh, Luo Xiu, I didn't expect that one day, I would actually be able to meet you!"

Facing Luo Xiu's terrifying offensive, Di Gulov let out an incredibly excited exclamation.

"Skeletal Imperial Guard!"

The six pairs of bone wings behind him suddenly snapped shut, crossing in front of him like two massive bone shields, as dark red runes flowed frantically!

"Di Gulov, Aiolia was your predecessor's warning!"

BOOM!!!

Luo Xiu's Blood Abyss Greatsword struck the bone wings heavily, erupting with a deafening roar.
