337: Endless Purgatory

In this seemingly lopsided contest, Chen Tianming gradually gained the upper hand in a playful manner.

His every move exuded composure, standing in stark contrast to the blind fury of the giant golden eye.

As the enemy became increasingly sluggish, Chen Tianming re-established contact with Salia.

"The time has come."

Chen Tianming thought silently to himself.

Following his silent command, the surrounding Samadhi True Fire suddenly converged into a surging torrent of flames.

Countless tentacles and those mutated monsters began to bare their fangs and retreat while shrieking.

It not only blocked the attack of the golden tentacles but also instantly formed a vortex of flames, attempting to engulf the giant golden eye.

The counterattack about to unfold in the next moment was like the first ray of dawn cutting through the silent night sky, signaling a reversal of the battle.

"It is our turn to counterattack. Salia, do you really not feel disgusted?" Chen Tianming's voice was firm and full of determination.

He turned his head slightly, his deep gaze piercing through the smoke of the battlefield, meeting Salia's eyes in mid-air.

It was as if two stars had found each other under the veil of night; without a word, an indescribable tacit understanding flowed quietly between them, a resonance of souls a thousand times stronger than any speech.

Immediately after, time seemed to freeze at this moment, and the air was filled with an atmosphere of tension and anticipation.

The two moved at almost the exact same instant, their figures as if guided by invisible threads, shockingly synchronized; every movement perfectly echoed the other without the slightest error.

It was just like seeing oneself in a mirror, or perhaps a dance rehearsed thousands of times, harmonious to the extreme.

In that fearsome, giant vertical eye, golden light swirled, yet it was difficult to catch the precursor of their attack.

That disgusting, massive entity's single eye seemed to perceive the crisis, beginning to sway uneasily from side to side, then eerily shifted from vertical to horizontal.

The shape of the pupil changed abruptly, revealing an unspeakable aura of evil.

Around it, fang-like structures twisted into existence, sharp and ferocious, as if they were a gateway to another world, accompanied by the gurgling flow of golden liquid, revealing the mystery and terror of an interdimensional space.

Furthermore, some deformed yet powerful interdimensional creatures surged out from the abyss-like mouth of the giant eye; these were powerful puppets that this golden eyeball had collected after traversing countless galaxies.

Their appearance carried a majesty capable of shaking the entire fantasy star domain, making all surrounding living beings tremble.

These powerhouses from unknown realms trampled wantonly, leaving a trail of devastation wherever they went, even dragging innocent creatures into the golden eyeball to be cruelly devoured; that pupil had truly become a demonic abyss devouring everything, exuding a heart-palpitating terror.

Amidst such a scene interwoven with despair and chaos, Chen Tianming and Salia, like two unyielding beams of light, resolutely charged toward the core of the golden eyeball.

There was no need for unnecessary verbal communication between the two; pure trust and tacit understanding allowed their minds to connect, as if sharing the same fighting will.

They were seen almost simultaneously executing crisp gestures, unleashing identical attacks.

The golden eye simply could not lock onto two powerhouses above the god-level at the same time.

Therefore, the liquid-filled golden eyeball was fiercely punched a few times by the pair.

It actually fell from its high-and-mighty levitation down to the ground.

Chen Tianming and Salia were of one mind.

A battle cry erupted, and Salia rose in response.

Her body, though having lost its godhood, still contained endless potential; she raised an ancient shield with both hands, the shield engraved with complex incantations, as if it could suppress the eternal firmament.

Under her control, the shield transformed into a shadow that blotted out the sky, pressing straight down upon the giant golden eye like a moving mountain, intending to completely seal this arrogant monster.

BOOM!!!

Air waves surged, and the giant golden vertical eye sank into a deep pit.

"Chen Tianming! Do it!"

Salia's voice resounded through the sky.

"I've been ready for a long time!"

Chen Tianming pushed his spiritual power to the limit.

Sparks of unyielding resolve shone in his eyes, and the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand condensed all his spiritual power and rage, like a sharp blade capable of severing fate.

As Salia's shield constructed a realm of suppression in the air.

Chen Tianming's offensive immediately unfolded.

He skillfully combined the Samadhi True Fire with the power of space; in a single thought, a silent command seemed to ring out between heaven and earth.

His figure expanded, and the Xuanyuan Sword tore through the air, trailing a winding path of flames, striking directly at the center of the golden eyeball.

At the same time, a powerful force of spatial distortion suddenly emerged, ripping thin cracks into the void around the golden eyeball, as if to tear the entire space apart.

"Samadhi True Fire: Spatial Cleavage!"

Chen Tianming roared lowly.

Where the sword edge passed, space was forcibly cut.

The liquid around the giant golden eye evaporated rapidly like ice meeting boiling oil, revealing a deeper, unknown darkness within.

Salia swung her shield hard in mid-air, the giant shield roaring as it complemented Chen Tianming's sword momentum.

With their combined efforts, the entire sky seemed to be split in two.

On one side was a sea of fire of destruction, and on the other was endless darkness.

In the center of the giant golden eye, a twisted vortex slowly took shape; it was both a cleavage of space and a vortex of destruction.

Chen Tianming roared.

"Endless Purgatory! Open!"

He poured all the remaining power in his body into the Xuanyuan Sword, pointing the tip directly at the center of the vortex.

The tornado formed by the Samadhi True Fire and the tearing force of the spatial cracks merged perfectly, creating a black hole that devoured everything.

The golden eyeball, as if drawn by fate, was irresistibly sucked into the ever-expanding vortex.

Its golden light vanished, its body broke apart, and the stench of its wounds was everywhere.

The terrifying golden vertical eye began to peel and collapse from the inside out at this moment.

Whoosh!

The spatial crack shattered, and the giant golden eyeball was directly absorbed.

At that moment, time seemed to freeze, and everyone held their breath.

The giant golden eye let out a final earth-shattering wail in its struggle, a sound filled with unwillingness and despair, but in the end, it could not escape the fate of being completely devoured.

As the vortex disappeared, the golden eyeball that had once made the entire world tremble was finally sent into the unknown void, completely vanishing from the sight of all living beings.

"It's over..."

Chen Tianming withdrew the Xuanyuan Sword.

Salia couldn't help but praise him.

"Endless Purgatory, the combination of space power and flame power, you're great! You created a new space yourself!"

Chen Tianming smirked mischievously.

"It's not just me that's great; my 'rod' is even greater!"

He looked at Salia, and she blushed.

Hand in hand, the two silently conveyed their feelings to each other.

The two stood just like that on the broken yet reborn continent, their backs to the blue and vast sky.
