Chapter 1699 The End!
Chapter 1699 The End!
"very good!
"That's it, you old man who's moving islands, burn your pitiful bit of fundamental laws to the fullest extent!"
The high priest sneered inwardly.
"The more time you take, the easier it will be to clean up later!"
The reason He didn't use more powerful methods to try to break the deadlock instantly, and even cooperated with the opponent's "delaying tactics," was that...
It was precisely because he had other plans in mind...
He knew all too well that a seasoned monster like the Island-Moving Venerable, once driven to a corner, might very well resort to a suicidal act—
Just like that 'old immortal' before, he would rather send the [Purgatory World-Destroying Millstone] into the spacetime turbulence and lose it completely than let it fall into the hands of the enemy!
The High Priest's goal was not only to take the life of the Island-Moving Venerable, but also to obtain the supreme array artifact [Myriad Manifestations Pure Source River] in his hands!
This treasure is worth far more than the life of a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator!
He will never allow the same regret to happen again!
Therefore, he chose the safest and least strenuous method—
Boil the frog in warm water.
This caused the Island-Moving Venerable to gradually deplete his own source of laws in despair.
Once the opponent's source is depleted, they will no longer be able to drive the [Myriad Manifestations Pure Source River] for long-distance spacetime exile.
This treasure was destined to be his!
After all, He only consumed the relatively easily recoverable power of the laws, while the opponent consumed the fatal source of the laws.
He has a firm grip on this war of attrition and is now in an invincible position!
the other side,
True Dragon Sea, deep within the magnificent hall.
High on his throne, Yu Twelve gently tapped the cold armrest with his slender, pale fingers.
The enormous light screen floating before Him clearly reflected the stalemate battle beneath the shattered sky.
Watching the High Priest's seemingly ferocious but actually steady attrition tactics, a cold and satisfied smile slowly curved onto Yu Twelve's handsome, almost otherworldly face.
"Ah"
A low laugh echoed in the empty hall.
"Not too stupid"
Finally, I've learned how to reap the sweetest rewards with the least cost.
He picked up a wine cup made of some kind of spiritual jade bone, which was filled with a blood-red nectar.
Yu Twelve took a graceful sip, his eyes like those of a god admiring a chess game, carrying a hint of condescending approval and a cold desire for control.
"Know how to use your own advantages to dismantle the opponent's core resistance."
well.
"I will remember this merit."
A crimson liquid left an eerie trace on his lips, and his voice carried an indifferent air of dominion over life and death.
"When my true form descends upon the Forbidden Sea and completely takes control of everything..."
"In consideration of this merit, I, in my great mercy, will grant you an annihilation without any pain!"
His gaze pierced through the light barrier, as if he could already see the Island-Moving Venerable's essence depleted, and the High Priest smugly collecting his spoils...
In the end, however, it was the true mastermind behind the scenes who reaped all the fruits of victory.
"Hahaha···"
this moment.
The ancient hall was filled with an eerie atmosphere that sent chills down one's spine.
···
Forbidden Sea, due east.
This void, bathed in golden light, resembled a solidified golden ocean, yet it was filled with destructive energy storms.
The Island-Moving Venerable, relying on the [Myriad Manifestations Clear Source River], is fiercely clashing with the High Priest's all-powerful demonic body.
Each clash tears open a deep spatial rift, scattering golden shards and chaotic currents in all directions.
However, although the Venerable One of the Island Moving appeared to be as imposing as ever, the ominous premonition deep in his heart was like a cold, venomous snake, tightening its grip and almost choking his soul.
He could clearly sense that the fundamental laws supporting the [Myriad Manifestations Clear Source River] were draining away and drying up at an alarming rate with each activation.
"Could it be that I am truly going to perish here this time?"
A desperate thought churned in his mind.
Reality is cold and cruel.
The long and fierce battle had already forced his realm of law from the realm of law runes back to the initial "beginner's glimpse" realm.
The remaining essence of the laws is like a candle flickering in the wind, swaying uncertainly, and could be extinguished completely at any moment.
On the other hand, the towering giant opposite them, though its attacks were not as fierce and violent as they had been at the beginning, still maintained a precise and heavy suppressive rhythm.
Like a net from heaven and earth, it trapped him firmly in a small space, leaving him no chance to breathe.
What weighed heavily on his mind was that the expected severe backlash from the High Priest's use of power beyond his own limits had not yet arrived!
A sharp glint flashed in the eyes of the Island-Moving Venerable, and a chilling guess surfaced in his mind:
"camouflage!
It was all a facade!
This old thief is clearly feigning weakness and exhaustion to lull me into a false sense of security, so as to completely deplete my last bit of the source of the laws and give me no chance to escape!
"It's all for the sake of seizing my [Myriad Manifestations Pure Source River]!"
This treasure is an unparalleled opportunity for any Nascent Soul cultivator, enough to unleash a bloodbath!
A resolute and fierce aura suddenly erupted!
"You want my life!"
To steal the treasures of the original master?
It all depends on whether you have good teeth!
The Island-Moving Venerable suddenly let out a roar that shook the universe, like the final howl of a dying beast.
The voice has not fallen,
The already turbulent fluctuations of laws around him suddenly went out of control!
It was no longer a controllable force, but transformed into a violent, chaotic, and destructive torrent, churning and expanding violently!
Terrifying energy ripples emanated from him, like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, instantly transforming into a destructive circular impact that swept and crushed wildly in all directions!
“Crack!
*Snap!*
The surrounding solid void could no longer withstand this extremely restrained yet suddenly erupting power.
Like fragile glass, it made a teeth-grinding cracking sound, collapsing and annihilating in large swathes, revealing the deep, dark void and chaos behind it.
This void, surging with golden light, is like a painting thrown into a furnace, being violently torn apart by an invisible, immense force!
He was willing to pay any price to detonate himself, dragging this entire world down with him!
the other side.
The high priest, who had maintained a suppressive posture, suddenly narrowed his enormous eyes, which seemed to contain an endless vortex of stars!
"not good!
This old monster is about to self-destruct!
A terrifying thought flashed through His mind like lightning.
If it were an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator or even a demon king's desperate self-destruction, He could suppress it with a wave of his hand.
However, a former mid-stage Nascent Soul expert should not be underestimated, even if his cultivation level has declined.
Because of this existence, they have already comprehended the laws governing the universe.
Once the source of the law is self-destructed, its power is enough to threaten beings of the same level or even higher levels!
Especially when that fluctuation revealed a utterly destructive, unrestrained, and violent intent...
It was extremely dangerous!
Even a powerful high priest wouldn't dare to be the slightest bit arrogant.
Once caught in the core of that level of destruction, even if one survives, the foundation of one's painstakingly cultivated laws will most likely suffer severe damage.
And it left behind irreparable damage to the Dao!
"retreat!"
The moment the thought arose, the High Priest's incredibly massive demonic body displayed a terrifying speed completely disproportionate to its size!
He even abandoned the attack that was gathering momentum; his enormous form was merely a blur, yet it tore through the void and blasted backward tens of millions of miles!
Only the slowly healing folds of space remained in place.
He hovered in the far distance of the void, his colossal divine body radiating immense divine power, poised and alert...
Waiting for the earth-shattering explosion that was anticipated to be enough to tear apart half of the forbidden sea!
however……
The anticipated devastating storm did not arrive.
In the center of that area, which had been almost completely torn into chaos by the violent energy
A dim streak of light, like a cunning loach, took advantage of the chaos and spatial tearing caused by the eruption of the law storm, and shot desperately toward the horizon in the opposite direction!
In the void.
Only the aftershocks of the Venerable One of Moving the Island, which had exerted all his strength, remained, sweeping and dissipating in disorder.
"Humph!"
A chilling snort, filled with boundless rage, exploded in the void like a tangible sound wave!
cheated!
The high priest's enormous face showed no emotion whatsoever, except for a pair of deep eyes that seemed to burn with a cold flame.
He did not show any shame or anger at being tricked; instead, a cruel, ironic smile, like a cat playing with a mouse, appeared on his lips.
"Want to run?
Can you escape before this priest?
The sound, like ancient ice rubbing together, clearly pierced through the vast void and echoed in the ears of the Island-Moving Venerable who was fleeing for his life.
Like a death warrant.
There is no other reason!
At this moment, the Island-Moving Venerable's cultivation level had already fallen to the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm. His aura was weak and unstable, and the remaining essence of his laws was as thin as smoke.
In the eyes of this Infernal High Priest, who still possessed formidable fighting power, he was already a fish on a chopping board, a turtle in a jar.
Even with extraordinary abilities, it's just a death throes, unable to stir up any real trouble.
His patience and disdain stemmed from the overwhelming power of his absolute strength.
next moment!
The high priest's massive body, as large as an ancient divine mountain, suddenly lit up with countless mysterious ancient runes, flowing with a dark red, deathly glow.
The very essence of the laws was instantly activated!
"Om-!"
With a flash of divine light, the towering demon god's body vanished into thin air like a ghost!
at the same time……
The dim streak of light, struggling to traverse the shattered void at speed already exceeding the limits of an Island-Moving Venerable, was about to enter a relatively stable spatial region...
Suddenly!
In front of the escaping light, the previously empty void suddenly collapsed and twisted inward!
A massive, suffocating black shadow silently stepped out from within!
It was the high priest who had just disappeared!
He seemed to have teleported from another time and space, precisely blocking all of the Island-Moving Venerable's paths!
"Old man who moved the island, the game is over."
This is my final farewell!
A massive, cold sound wave, carrying the implication of final judgment, like rolling thunder, instantly filled the entire void, causing the space to hum and vibrate.
Even the remaining golden glow in the distance was dispelled.
Before he could finish speaking, the high priest had already made his move!
A gigantic hand, blotting out the sky and interwoven with eerie, unpredictable crimson runes, suddenly reached out with the ultimate power to crush stars and destroy everything!
There are no fancy techniques, only pure and extreme destructive power!
Wherever the giant hand passed...
The void groaned under the unbearable pressure, squeezed and torn apart, forming countless huge cracks that stretched for hundreds of millions of miles, as dense and ferocious as a spider web!
Spatial turbulence surged forth like a flood, then was carried by the palm force, and together they struck the tiny streak of light!
Within the escaping light!
The island-moving venerable one's pupils suddenly shrank to pinpoints!
A chill emanating from the depths of his soul instantly froze his limbs and bones!
Can't stop!
Never try to take it head-on!
He was acutely aware that if he were to forcefully activate the [Myriad Manifestations Clear Source River] to withstand this palm strike with the remaining essence of his laws, even if he managed to block it by sheer luck, what chance would he have?
It will also inevitably exhaust the source of the laws, and its realm will irrevocably fall below the Nascent Soul stage!
At that time, it will be a true catastrophe, and even the last chance to struggle will be completely lost!
A life-or-death decision can be made in an instant!
"go!"
The eyes of the Island-Moving Venerable were bloodshot, and a hoarse roar came from his throat.
Almost the instant the giant hand was about to strike, he suddenly focused all his mind, abandoned all offensive and defensive stances, and poured all his immense magical power into the [Myriad Manifestations Pure Source River] beneath his feet, ignoring the excruciating pain of his torn meridians!
hum!
The clear river water suddenly shimmered!
The entire river instantly contracted and condensed, transforming into an extremely compressed barrier of light, which stood upright in front of him just as the giant palm was about to strike!
Boom——! ! !
An indescribable horrific noise!
This time, the Qingmeng River Curtain, which had withstood countless attacks, failed to replicate its miracle!
The high priest's furious attack contained a power of law far exceeding that of his previous strikes!
A giant hand slammed onto the river curtain, like a god's hammer striking glass!
“Crack!”
Amidst the crisp, ear-piercing cracking sound, the misty river curtain held out for less than half a breath before shattering inch by inch under the overwhelming force of the giant hand!
puff!
The Island-Moving Venerable was struck as if by lightning. Blood mixed with fragments of broken internal organs gushed out, and the protective divine light on his body instantly dimmed like a candle flickering in the wind.
His incredibly resilient body was directly struck by the overwhelming force, causing it to be thrown back and then explode.
They transformed into countless golden particles, radiating magnificent fluctuations.
A thought suddenly occurred to me!
The few golden particles gathered together, and the Island-Moving Venerable manifested once again.
However, his breathing weakened considerably.
Sensing the increasingly thinning essence of the laws, only one thought occupied his mind—
live!
Immediately.
The Island-Moving Venerable dared not linger for a moment, and once again transformed into a mournful streak of light, fleeing for his life in another direction!
"sucker Punch!"
In the void, the high priest's grand whisper, indifferent yet tinged with mockery, echoed.
Withdrawing its giant hand, the demon-like figure flickered once more.
Ripples spread through space, and He once again appeared precisely in front of the Island-Moving Venerable's escape light.
Like an insurmountable chasm stretching across the void.
Looking at that colossal giant that appeared out of nowhere once again, completely blocking all escape routes...
Within the escaping light, on the weathered yet now paper-white face of the Island-Moving Venerable, all that remained was shock, anger, resentment, and scheming...
All those complex emotions vanished in an instant.
Instead, there was a stagnant, still atmosphere.
