Chapter 62 Chaotic Battle
"Senior Kong, the battle is over. You should hand over the Taiwei Divine Cauldron and the billions of living beings in the Taiwei Realm."
Mingde stood with his hands behind his back in the starry sky, his robes fluttering in the wind. His perfect spiritual power spread in all directions, enveloping the entire battlefield. He smiled calmly, his gaze fixed on the Wrathful God, displaying the posture of a victor.
The six top Great Saints of the Primordial World defeated their opponents, their glory shining brightly and overwhelming the Saints of the Hell Realm. For a time, they were unparalleled in their prowess, greatly enhancing his prestige.
The Wrathful God sighed deeply, his brows furrowed with helplessness. With a wave of his hand, the ancient and heavy Taiwei Divine Cauldron, which carried the inheritance of the Taiwei Realm, burst forth from the sky. The cauldron was engraved with billions of divine patterns, shimmering with light. Following closely behind was a complete world condensed into a sphere of light, within which the aura of billions of beings from the Taiwei Realm was clearly discernible.
With a flick of his finger, Mingde shrunk the Taiwei Divine Cauldron to a tiny, exquisite cauldron, hovering quietly in his palm, its divine light concealed. The world that housed countless lives was then gently pulled into his inner space with a flick of his sleeve.
"Senior Kong is quite straightforward." Mingde lightly stroked the small cauldron with his fingertips, his spiritual power thoroughly scanning the cauldron and the world, confirming that there were no hidden tricks or restrictions before he laughed heartily. Although he had broken through to the Heavenly Perfection realm and could see through many secrets of the universe, the Hell Realm harbored several spiritually powerful individuals, and the Smurfs from the Southern Life and Death Ruins were still watching him from the opposite side, so he could not afford to be careless in the slightest.
The Wrathful God raised his eyes, his gaze as deep as the starry sky, and said in a deep voice, "Mingde, I have a piece of advice for you. Although you have reached the perfection of the heavens, there are still countless taboos in the depths of the universe that cannot be touched. Take care of yourself."
Mingde's expression turned slightly serious, and he bowed respectfully, saying, "Senior Kong's teachings will be forever etched in my heart."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mingde turned around, his gaze sweeping over the gloomy-faced gods of the Underworld. His voice echoed throughout the starry sky: "The Realm Grand Competition has ended. Are you still lingering here? Are you perhaps unwilling to accept defeat and wish to reignite the war?"
Gong Xuanzang's face was icy cold as he sneered, "Mingde, don't be too smug! If it weren't for Taiwei Divine Venerable's self-destruction to cover our retreat and injure us, the powerful forces of the Western Universe would have already fallen to me!"
The residual power of Taiwei Divine Lord's self-destruction still lingered, severely injuring giants of the Hell Realm such as Gong Xuanzang, the Three Fiend Emperors, and the Death God. The Death God was the most seriously injured and had already returned to the Temple of Destiny for seclusion. Although Gong Xuanzang and the Three Fiend Emperors suffered lighter injuries, they were still unable to fight at full strength. Otherwise, the combined forces of the Heavenly Court's Western Universe would have been no match for these top experts.
Just then, deep within the starry sky, a dark sun slowly emerged, and the Primordial Yama Qi transformed into a black river rushing for thousands of miles. Yama, the King of Hell, rode the river, his unyielding and boundless pressure sweeping across all directions. The gods of the Heavenly Court instantly tensed their minds, and the divine images of the Ancestor of the Shang Dynasty and the Lord of the Hall of Truth instantly descended to the forefront of the battlefield, their divine radiance intertwined, ready for battle.
"Shang Da Hu Zi, there's no need to be so nervous. I'm just here to watch the battle." Yan Ren Huan chuckled, standing alone at the edge of the starry sky. He didn't make a move, but the powerful aura that suppressed the starry sky was like a mountain pressing down, causing the gods of the Heavenly Court to hold their breath.
"Hahaha, how could such a grand event be complete without this old man!"
A vast ocean of blood suddenly appeared on the star battlefield, the wild and pungent stench of blood instantly permeating the entire star field, even staining the divine runes dark red. The gaunt figure of the Undying Blood Clan Chief stepped out of the sea of blood, his body as thin as a withered leaf, yet the oppressive aura that made even the gods tremble was something that none of the Boundless Realm experts present dared to underestimate.
Blood God of War strode forward, looked the clan leader up and down, and grinned, "Old man, you're still alive? I thought you died at the hands of those bald monks in the Buddhist realm."
"Go away, what nonsense!" The vampire patriarch rolled his eyes and said irritably, "Although Brahma has broken through to the Undying Boundless Realm, he is still far from being able to keep me here!" He secretly cursed in his heart, wondering how he had raised such a heartless junior who didn't even know how to appreciate his good qualities.
Upon seeing their patriarch descend, the gods of the Undying Blood Clan all stepped forward to pay their respects. The War God Xuantian approached and lowered his voice, saying, "Patriarch, the situation is unclear. The Yama Clan and the Three Upper Clans are plotting something. Our clan should withdraw as soon as possible to avoid being drawn into this vortex."
At this moment, all three major clans of the Hell Realm have mobilized. Shi Beiya, the patriarch of the Stone Clan, is stationed in the Boundless Divine Sea, while the patriarchs of the Death Clan and the Underworld Clan have personally arrived. Boundless Realm experts from all three clans are gathered, including the Lord of the Death God Palace, the Lord of the Underworld Palace, and the Lord of the Stone God Palace. Adding to this is Yan Renhuan, the patriarch of the Yama Clan. The strength of this force is comparable to the siege of the Kunlun Realm fifty thousand years ago. The Taiwei Realm's defenses are already fortified. If the Hell Realm were to launch a forceful attack, the cost would be devastating. The Xuan Tian War God truly cannot fathom the schemes of Yan Renhuan and his allies.
The vampire patriarch remained silent for a moment before slowly saying, "Xuantian, what you say makes sense. But we are all members of the Hell Realm, and given the greater good, we can only follow your lead."
The God of War Xuantian sighed helplessly and could only secretly plan how to preserve the remaining strength of the Undying Blood Clan when the God War broke out.
At the forefront of the Heavenly Court's forces, Mingde frowned slightly as he gazed at the restless gods of the Underworld. Fortunately, with his three bodies united, his divine power, spiritual power, and divine body all at their peak, he was capable of fighting even if the Emperor of Fengdu himself were to arrive.
The Lord of the Temple of Truth's divine body expanded for millions of miles, standing tall in the starry sky like a jade pillar supporting the heavens. His divine voice descended like a celestial decree: "Kong Fan Nu, having already been defeated, why have you not led your troops away? Gathering the gods, do you still intend to fight my Heavenly Court?"
The Wrathful God remained calm, his gaze fixed on the rear of the Heavenly Court. He said indifferently, "Lord of the Hall of Truth, it is too early to say whether the Underworld has been defeated."
"Kong Fan is furious! Enough with the nonsense! If you want to fight, then fight! It's too late for you to try and fix things after the fact. I want to see how many true gods your Temple of Destiny has left to die in battle!" Shang Zu spoke directly, his voice booming like a bell, showing no fear even when facing several clan leaders from the Underworld.
The gods of the Heavenly Court responded in unison, unleashing their divine artifacts and channeling their divine power, entering a state of combat readiness. The powerful figures of the Heavenly Realm, such as Yu Dongxuan, also stood at the forefront of the battlefield, their expressions solemn.
"Old ghost Shang, your temper is still as volatile as ever. Since you're spouting such nonsense, then I'll play along!" Gong Xuanzang made the first move.
His divine image enveloped the vast starry sky, the illusory figure of the Nether Ancestor stood tall and imposing, the evil Nether Qi surged like ink waves, condensing into a Netherworld City that suppressed eternity, carrying the power to crush stars, and crashed down upon the Shang Ancestor.
Upon seeing this, Yu Dongxuan and other powerful figures from the Heavenly Realm immediately joined forces to attack, unleashing a chorus of divine techniques. However, under the terrifying pressure of the Netherworld City's manifestation, all their supernatural powers shattered, and they were forced to retreat repeatedly.
The Ancestor of Shang remained unfazed, laughed loudly, and unleashed a powerful palm strike. Golden divine light, stretching for thousands of miles, blazed forth like a scorching sun, colliding fiercely with the City of the Underworld!
"boom-!"
The deafening roar of the collision between two ultimate, boundless rules shattered the starry sky, and the spatial barriers crumbled like glass, forming an endless void storm. The gods retreated hastily, fearing the aftershocks. Shang Zu stepped forward and plunged into the void, engaging in an earth-shattering battle with Gong Xuanzang. The two figures traversed the void, their fight causing chaos to surge.
"They actually attacked directly..."
Mingde's eyes flashed as he pondered to himself. Gong Xuanzang was severely injured, and although Shang Zu had fought with Qing Cang, he had not been seriously injured. The two were at similar levels, and even if Gong Xuanzang were at his peak, he could not do anything to Shang Zu. Why would he rashly start a war?
Before Mingde could figure out the reason, several powerful figures of the Underworld Clan had already surrounded him! The Underworld Palace Master Wen Zhiren, the War God Underworld Lord, and the Lord of the Underworld City, three powerful figures in the late stage of the Great Freedom Boundless Realm, formed a triangle and surrounded him tightly.
"Mingde, the four of us ganging up on you is worthy of your flawless identity," Wen Zhiren said coldly.
The God of War, the Underworld Lord, wielded a black gold broadsword, its blade shattering the Milky Way; the Lord of the Underworld Palace and the Lord of the Underworld City silently approached, their divine senses locking onto Mingde, giving him no chance to escape.
The Lord of Truth and his entourage were eager to rush to the aid, but were blocked by the powerful figures of Hell, and the two sides instantly descended into a chaotic battle.
Mingde looked around, showing no fear whatsoever, and instead sneered, "You bunch of rotten potatoes and stinking eggs dare to gang up on me? Do you think you're stronger than Xiong Hai and Luo Ding?"
The aged, withered voice of the Lord of the Underworld City rang out, like a chilling wind from the depths of hell: "Mingde, you have defeated Xiong Hai and Luo Ding in succession, your strength is formidable. The four of us are indeed no match for you... but what if we add Qingzu?"
"Qing Cang?!"
Mingde's expression changed drastically! If Qingcang of Tiannan Life and Death Ruins joined forces with the Underworld Clan, even with his three bodies combined, he would be in danger! He immediately activated his Heavenly Perfection spiritual power to investigate his surroundings.
But the next second, an extremely powerful mental energy field suddenly descended, locking his divine sense and soul!
Qing Cang arrived, stepping on stars that shattered beneath his feet. He held a divine pen shrouded in deathly aura in his hand, and the rules of death in the universe converged on him like a tide, forming a boundless domain of death.
"The Heavenly Southern Life and Death Ruins truly live up to its name. It actually managed to imprison my spiritual divine form with its mental power." Mingde's expression turned completely serious, no longer showing the slightest contempt. Qingcang unleashed his full power, his unparalleled death mental power acting like shackles, firmly binding his divine sense and greatly reducing his strength.
Qing Cang looked at Ming De with deep emotion in his eyes: "Ming De, I never expected you to progress so quickly. In such a short time, you have broken through to the Heavenly Perfection Realm and are now on par with me. Truly, every generation produces its own talented individuals."
He originally thought that his eldest disciple was the most promising cultivator in the current universe to achieve perfect enlightenment, but unexpectedly, Mingde surpassed him and exceeded everyone's expectations.
"The Heavenly Southern Ruins of Life and Death have shaken the universe for hundreds of thousands of years, their fame resounding. To be able to fight against the Ancestor Qing today—is this not exhilarating!"
With a long roar, Mingde summoned the Starry Sky Chessboard. The chessboard hovered above his head, and billions of star pieces automatically took their places, stellar power surging and instantly breaking through Qingcang's mental confinement. He flicked his fingers repeatedly, sending several star pieces soaring through the air, unleashing overwhelming divine power that directly blasted the War God and the other two away. The chessboard transformed into a vast world of chess, crashing into Qingcang. Qingcang, with a flick of his divine brush, unleashed a galaxy that neutralized the attack. The two men's mental energy transformed into various techniques, constantly clashing.
The battle instantly intensified, the starry sky shattered, divine arts roared, and the fierce battle between experts at the Boundless Realm brought the entire star field to the brink of collapse.
On the other side, Mingde's Buddhist and Taoist avatar, Xuandao, was surrounded by the gods of the Undying Blood Clan.
Xuan Dao clasped his hands together and chanted a Buddhist prayer: "Amitabha. I deeply admire the Blood Clan Chief for not harming the worlds under the Buddhist realm and for not committing massacres."
The vampire patriarch infiltrated the vicinity of the Buddhist realm, but he did not cause widespread destruction. Firstly, he followed the unspoken rules of the war between gods, and secondly, he did not want to offend the Buddhist realm too much. If he angered Brahma, he would also sneak into the Winged World and cause widespread destruction, and he could not bear the consequences. However, Xuan Dao was still grateful to him, because if it were the Death God, the billions of miles of starry sky outside the Buddhist realm would probably be wiped out.
The vampire patriarch chuckled and looked Xuan Dao up and down: "Little monk Xuan Dao, I've heard that you fought with Koro. That old man likes to bully the younger generation and his character is rather bad, but his cultivation is unfathomable. The fact that you could fight him for several rounds makes you one of the best among the younger generation, no less than Xia Huangchao and Ji Wang back then."
He was filled with envy. The Buddhist realm could actually produce such a gem. Looking at the Blood God of War beside him, he immediately felt that the gap between them was vast.
"Very well, I'll play along with you and see what mysteries your supposedly self-created golden body of Dharma truly holds!"
The vampire patriarch raised his hand and waved, unleashing a crimson divine light that cleaved through the void like a divine blade, striking directly at the Xuan Dao.
Xuan Dao remained calm and unhurried, unleashing his Three Heads and Eighteen Arms Golden Body Dharma Form. His golden body shone brightly, and Buddhist chants resounded, as he engaged the Blood Clan Chief in a battle of wits.
"Great Freedom and Boundless?!" Shock flashed in the eyes of the vampire patriarch. "It seems that the Buddhist realm will soon have another Buddha!" He didn't know the cultivation time of Xuan Dao, but he could sense the vigorous appearance on him. He guessed that it would not exceed five Yuanhui. To cultivate to the Great Freedom and Boundless in a few hundred thousand years, he undoubtedly had the potential to become a Buddha.
He raised his hand and struck, golden light clashing with crimson light, sending Xuan Dao's golden avatar flying tens of thousands of miles. The vampire patriarch lightly touched the ground, pursuing him like a crimson lightning bolt.
Upon seeing this, Dao Shen Zhenyu immediately steered the divine temple to the rescue. The divine temple, enveloped in countless divine flames, fell like a meteor, crashing towards the Blood Clan Chief.
Upon seeing this, the vampire patriarch unfurled twenty-two pairs of blood wings behind him, blotting out the sky and the sun, like a demon god descending to earth. With a wave of his blood wings, he directly severed the temple, and then with a flick of his finger, a burst of blood energy pierced through the True Universe God's body.
Zhenyu was sent flying backward, his divine blood spraying out, and was swallowed by the vampire patriarch.
"Interesting, another one. Five Elements Guan Zhenyu, has he also broken through to the Great Freedom and Boundless Realm?" The vampire patriarch laughed, his aura surging. His originally withered and aged body was restored to full strength under the nourishment of divine power. He unleashed his peak combat power, and his twenty-two pairs of blood wings flapped, causing the starry sky to tremble.
"Recently, there have been many young powerhouses emerging one after another!" The vampire patriarch said with a smile as he looked at the two. Blood waves surged around him, and the aura of death and bloodlust permeated the air. He locked onto Xuan Dao and Zhen Yu, preparing to go all out to test the true strength of these two.
