Chapter 645: Chapter 620: Father and Son Join the Battle, Instant Kill True One
Amidst the ferocious assault of the Primordial Ancestor, Lu Ming’s body gradually became ethereal, and, ultimately, a sigh echoed through the void. His body slowly disintegrated, turning into a shower of light that dissipated, leaving behind only a marble-sized bone bead floating in the air, translucent as jade.
Deprived of Lu Ming’s essence, energy, and spirit, the radiance of the Primeval Spirit Skeleton quickly dimmed, and its body rapidly shrank, as did the Primeval Spirit Shield accompanying it.
Yet, the Primordial Ancestor seemed wary of the Primeval Spirit Skeleton and the Primeval Spirit Shield. A colossal hand materialized in the air and pressed down upon the Primeval Spirit Skeleton and Shield, sending them plummeting into the Wild Ocean.
Meanwhile, he grasped the remaining bone bead of Lu Ming and hurried into the starry sky, heading towards the battlefield where Tang Feng and the others were.
It would not be too late to deal with the Primeval Spirit Skeleton and Primeval Spirit Shield after taking care of Tang Feng and the others.
At this moment, the Lord of the Bloody Sea had already been utterly vanquished by Tang Feng, leaving the Light Clan Imperial Ancestor, the Demon Clan, and the Earth Ancestor retreating in panic, not daring to engage any further.
Tang Feng was simply too terrifying. Without a top-tier power to restrain him, he was akin to a killing machine. The few of them could not stop him at all.
Clang!
The sound of a sword’s cry, as if resounding throughout the cosmos, Tang Feng locked onto the Earth Ancestor, preparing to make him the next target.
Relatively speaking, the Earth Ancestor was the slowest.
But just then, sensing an imminent crisis rapidly approaching, Tang Feng did not bother to pursue the Earth Ancestor. Instead, his sword tip abruptly changed direction, stabbing backward.
Behind him, the figure of the Primordial Ancestor silently emerged. He flicked his finger, accurately striking Tang Feng’s sword tip.
Hum!
The battle sword vibrated intensely, and Tang Feng felt an extraordinarily terrifying force rushing towards him, sending him reeling backward uncontrollably.
"Primordial Ancestor!"
Seeing the Primordial Ancestor, Tang Feng’s face drastically changed.
Ye Qing, Ancestor of All Magics, and the Formation Ancestor, along with others, all showed stark changes in expression.
The arrival of the Primordial Ancestor signified that the efforts of Lu Ming and the others to hold him off had failed.
So, had Lu Ming...
Boom!
After repelling Tang Feng, the Primordial Ancestor did not pause at all, following up with a palm strike towards Tang Feng.
The palm was immense, like the hand of the world itself, with numerous Magic Rivers intertwined upon it, creating a scene of extreme terror.
"True Self Sword!"
Tang Feng bellowed, exerting his full power. He transformed into a brilliant sword light, driven by the River of Sword Magic to propel the Supreme Law, pushing the power of his Swordsmanship to its limits.
This sword was peerlessly sharp, invincible against all obstacles.
Yet, when the sword light collided with the Primordial Ancestor’s palm, it met with immense resistance. The two locked in a stalemate for two breaths until the sword light began to warp and deform. Finally, with a snap, it broke apart, revealing the True Body of Tang Feng as he was flung backwards, spewing a mouthful of fresh blood, his face ashen.
"Interesting, to withstand a blow from me and not die, in this world today, only Lu Ming, Yin Xiantian, and you, Tang Feng, are worthy of dying under the Creation Whip," said the Primordial Ancestor with detached indifference. As his words trailed off, the Creation Whip was already in his hand.
With a whoosh, the Creation Whip rapidly extended, reaching billions upon billions of miles, as if it could stretch from one end of the cosmos to the other, whipping towards Tang Feng.
Even before the Creation Whip arrived, Tang Feng felt a piercing pain on his skin, as if his body might explode.
The Creation Whip, also known by another name, the Annihilation Whip.
It possessed the power to annihilate worlds.
Tang Feng had a feeling that if he were to withstand it directly, even if he didn’t die, he would still be grievously injured.
But he had no intention of retreating.
Because if he retreated, Ye Qing, the Ancestor of All Magics, and others within the Yin Yang Qiankun Mother-Child Chart would be subject to attack.
At this point, there was no turning back.
But just then, the Creation Whip appeared to be drawn by some force and trembled violently.
Crackle!
The void split open, and an immense, brilliantly luminescent ring burst forth, slamming down upon the Creation Whip.
Within the ring, there was a terrifying swallowing force, aiming to engulf and lock the Creation Whip.
Locking Heaven Ring!
Tang Feng’s eyes lit up.
Hum!
The two peerless treasures clashed, producing world-shattering turbulence.
Behind the Locking Heaven Ring, the figure of Lu Yan emerged.
Having refined the Locking Heaven Ring in the void, he sensed violent fluctuations from the Mother-Child Chart, realizing that such disturbances could only mean one thing—the Mother Chart was engaged in a fierce battle.
So, without hesitation, Lu Yan traced the coordinates of the Child Chart and rushed over, arriving just as the battle intensified.
"Locking Heaven Ring, I didn’t expect that you would actually find the Locking Heaven Ring in the void," remarked the Primordial Ancestor, his face shifting as he exerted his strength ferociously, channeling robust power into the Creation Whip.
The Creation Whip exploded with terrifying force, attempting to repel the Locking Heaven Ring.
However, the Locking Heaven Ring seemed to have a natural advantage over the Creation Whip. Peculiar forces emerged upon it, clinging tightly to the Creation Whip. Despite the intense vibrations, the Creation Whip could not shake off the Locking Heaven Ring.
"Senior, lend me your strength. My power alone is too weak to fully awaken the intrinsic power of the Locking Heaven Ring and bring it to life," Lu Yan communicated to Tang Feng.
Without any hesitation, Tang Feng instantly joined Lu Yan side by side, channeling his powerful energy into the Locking Heaven Ring.
Hum!
The Locking Heaven Ring resonated. With the combined efforts of Lu Yan and Tang Feng, its true inner force seemed to awaken, its terrifying presence permeating, engaging in fierce conflict with the Creation Whip.
The Creation Whip was restrained.
"Do you think that just by restraining the Creation Whip, you can fight against me? Even without the Creation Whip, killing you would still be as easy as flipping my hand," said the Primordial Ancestor, his countenance slightly aloof, his dreadful aura surging as he launched a palm strike at Lu Yan and Tang Feng.
His palm surged in size, and within its creases, mystical patterns interwove to depict the cycle of birth and destruction of the universe.
This is a terrifying Supreme Law, the World-Ending Palm.
"True Self Sword!"
Tang Feng shouted lowly, continuing to drive the Supreme Law with the River of Sword Magic, unleashing his most powerful strike.
"Genesis Epoch!"
Lu Yan also unleashed his Supreme Law, combining body technique as one, pushing his strength to the extreme. His body turned into a world-ending blade light, slashing towards the Primordial Ancestor.
Boom Boom!
A single blade and a sword collided with the World-Ending Palm, the entire starry sky burst open, myriad stars exploded.
Blade lights and sword glows spread throughout the boundless starry sky. If one were to take a step back to view the big picture, it was clear that at least one-tenth of the entire universe was covered with blade lights and sword glows.
This was an extremely terrifying event; how vast was the boundless starry sky? With countless galaxies and stars numbering in the billions, one-tenth of such an area was horrifyingly large.
Yet, even with Lu Yan and Tang Feng joining forces, they were still no match for the Primordial Ancestor.
After a few breaths, the blade lights and sword glows shattered, and Lu Yan and Tang Feng retreated while coughing up blood.
Seeing that the two of them together could block one strike of his World-Ending Palm, the Primordial Ancestor was somewhat surprised. A rare hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes as he said, "The mysteries of fate are indeed profound, giving rise to all sorts of changes. For me, there are good and bad changes. The Dragon Alliance is one such bad variable. It’s a pity that, in my world, all variables are under my control."
"Just like Lu Ming, no matter how astonishing, in the end, he must die by my hands."
"Nonsense, Lu Ming cannot die, he will not die."
From within the Yin Yang Qiankun Mother-Child Chart, a beautiful woman cried out.
She was Lu Ming’s wife, Xie Nianqing.
"Indeed, how could Lu Ming possibly die? He has survived countless deaths while following me for an eternity. Thinking otherwise is not enough to unsettle our Dao hearts."
The Formation Ancestor also cried out.
The Primordial Ancestor smiled faintly, stretching out his hand, his palm holding the last remaining bone orb left by Lu Ming.
"Lu Ming has truly perished, leaving behind only this bone orb. In my realm, there is no creature that cannot die. Your last hope is gone."
The Primordial Ancestor said lightly.
Tang Feng, Lu Yan, and the others were fiercely shaken in spirit.
Xie Nianqing and several other women became pale.
They sensed that the bone orb indeed bore Lu Ming’s aura.
Although they did not want to believe it, their reasoning told them that Lu Ming might have really fallen.
If Lu Ming had not fallen, how could the Primordial Ancestor and the others have appeared here? And if Lu Ming had not fallen, why would he still not show himself?
"Dust to dust, earth to earth, in my world, everything belongs to me. Without my permission, not even a speck of dust is allowed to leave, let alone a bone orb. Lu Ming, vanish into nonexistence."
The Primordial Ancestor clenched the bone orb tightly in his palm, intending to grind it into nothingness.
Crack!
Under the mighty force of the Primordial Ancestor, the bone orb developed a crack.
Then the sounds of cracking became more frequent, and more and more fissures appeared on the bone orb.
"Stop!"
Lu Yan bellowed, his body shining brightly as he cast countless spells towards the Primordial Ancestor, preparing himself to strike with all his might.
Aside from him, Tang Feng was doing the same.
But just at that moment, the Primordial Ancestor’s expression changed.
Because, he suddenly felt a terrifying power bursting from within the bone orb, sharp spears of light piercing into his palm, breaking the skin and burrowing deep into the marrow.
The Primordial Ancestor reflexively shook his hand, flinging the bone orb away.
The bone orb flew towards the direction where the Earth Ancestor was located.
Whoosh!
In the process of flying out, the bone orb burst into billions of radiant lights, shining countless times brighter than any star, then transformed into a spear of light, thrusting towards the Earth Ancestor.
"No..."
The Earth Ancestor was terrified, sensing an imminent threat of death.
Under the threat of death, his body turned into a colossal metal mountain with dozens of layers of solid defenses set up in front of him.
But these defenses, under the spear of light, were as if they were made of paper, easily broken through.
Thump!
The spear of light pierced through the Earth Ancestor’s body, his life force dwindling rapidly, and in a blink, completely vanished.
The Earth Ancestor died.
One strike, just a single strike, had killed a True One State powerhouse.
However, after killing the Earth Ancestor, the spear of light did not stop. It broke through space and this time, its target was... the Immortal Ancestor.
The speed of the spear of light was inconceivable, as if space lost its meaning. In a flash, it approached the Immortal Ancestor.
The Immortal Ancestor wanted to dodge but it was already too late, so he put up his strongest defense.
But as far as defense was concerned, he was not as strong as the Earth Ancestor, how could he withstand it?
Splat!
As the spear of light passed, the Immortal Ancestor’s nine heads burst simultaneously, his life force also dissipating at an alarming rate, and in the blink of an eye, completely extinguished.
Another one gone.
It was still a one-hit kill.
The remaining True One ghosts rushed frantically towards the Primordial Ancestor’s side.
"Lu Ming..."
The Primordial Ancestor roared in fury.
