Chapter 1437: The Last Trump Card
Chapter 1437: The Last Trump Card
Almost at the same time when the Heaven Destiny Old Man had displayed his spirit animus, the gigantic form of the spirit animus was attacking Ji Yuan, Ding Xiaoxiao and the Goddess Zhen Ying.
Huge waves of profound power from the 8 weapons of the spirit animus began to send Ji Yuan, Ding Xiaoxiao and the Goddess Zhen Ying to fly backward as they evaded or counteracted with their own profound forces.
With this spirit animus around, there was no way for Ji Yuan to even come close to the Heaven Destiny Old Man at all.
The Goddess Zhen Ying gasped to Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao, "He is simply too strong for us to handle! Run while you can while I try to hold him off as soon as possible..."
There was a grim look in her eyes as she saw no way out of this and the possibility of losing her very own life was high.
All of a sudden, Ji Yuan began shouting to Ding Xiaoxiao as he unleashed his One Dividing Sword profound sword art. "Now!"
A black wave of sword energies began to pour forth from his black divine sword into the direction of the Heaven Destiny Old Man.
Ji Yuan had displayed his Greater Life and Death Domain to use with his One Dividing Sword!
At the same time, Ding Xiaoxiao had danced above Ji Yuan as she said coolly with her Divine Palatine raised above her head, "Sword Dao of the Beyond Universe!"
This Sword Dao of the Beyond Universe was her fifth sword domain.
An equally powerful white wave of sword energies began to pour forth from her winged white sword as well before merging with Ji Yuan’s One Dividing Sword; together both white and black sword energies began to swirl around each other several times before merging together to strike toward the Heaven Destiny Old Man.
The combined sword energies formed such a fierce energies storm that the Goddess Zhen Ying was forced to use all her profound strength just to be remained rooted onto the ground and she was astonished by the sword energies furies that she had seen.
However the Heaven Destiny Old Man simply laughed aloud, "Foolish! Foolish! You can’t even penetrate my spirit animus, let alone my Three Defense Profound Energies Shield!"
As he said that, his spirit animus began to fold its eight arms to form a super profound shield to withstand the incoming white and black sword energies.
The wave of powerful white and black sword energies plummet through the super profound shield of the Heaven Destiny Old Man’s spirit animus and dissipating it completely.
The Heaven Destiny Old Man was shocked to see that his spirit animus had actually been destroyed but he had no time to ponder over this as the white and black sword energies were now upon him.
He raised his profound strength as he shouted, "Nothing will ever penetrate my Three Defense Profound Energies Shield..."
But the moment that he had said that, waves of powerful sword energies began to rip apart the third and second layer of his profound defenses.
This stunned the Heaven Destiny Old Man who was now using all his profound strength to power the last layer of his Three Defense Profound Energies Shield which was also the strongest layer.
He still could not believe how easily his spirit animus was being destroyed and how the first two layers of his Three Defense Profound Energies were being destroyed. But when he felt the profound power of the sword energies, he was shocked for it was a profound power that could rival his own, and even stronger!
In just 3 blinks of an eye, the last defensive layer that was from the Three Defense Profound Shield began to dissipate completely and the Heaven Destiny Old Man was struck by the furies of the incoming sword energies.
This time round the Heaven Destiny Old Man was yelling with great agony as his profound aura was being burnt up by the powerful outpouring sword energies and even his flesh was burning, "This is impossible... impossible!!!"
The Goddess Zhen Ying was shocked to see such a devastating profound sword art that was being displayed by Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao. In fact, she had never seen anything so powerful before. And she has not thought that Ji Yuan could even use his One Dividing Sword the way it is now.
Back when she was helping Ji Yuan at the Holy Cultivation Palace, Ji Yuan did not use his Greater Life and Death Domain to use with his One Dividing Sword. It was because this was Ji Yuan’s most powerful profound attack and he had wanted to save it for the Holy Cultivation Empress to use as his last trump card.
Ji Yuan grinned, "I know you are strong but you happen to encounter two of the most powerful sword domains combined that can even kill a True God! You are merely a strong immortal but you are not a True God!"
He was naturally referring to Gong Diablo, a half-step Divinity that Ding Xiaoxiao and he had killed with their combined sword domains.
When Ji Yuan had said that, the Heaven Destiny Old Man had burst into furious profound flames and only his golden skeleton was what that had remained.
Ji Yuan coughed out golden blood as he began to stumble backward and a startled Ding Xiaoxiao and Goddess Zhen Ying, both grabbed him by his arms to steady him to the ground.
He said weakly, "I am alright. It is just that it is a little too dangerous to use the Greater Life and Death Domain in my present condition..."
Then he grinned to both Ding Xiaoxiao and the Goddess Zhen Ying, "But it is worth it. We have killed this old freak and rid the Celestial Realm of a major menace."
The Goddess Zhen Ying murmured, "It seems that I am useless in this battle..."
Ding Xiaoxiao nodded, "It is worth it for us to use our most powerful sword domains against him. I’ve thought that I may be forced to release my cultivation strength to the 9th cultivation realm. But this is too easy for someone that is even ancient than me..."
When she had said this, there was a laughter from the golden skeleton as it began to animate itself and a deadly abyssal fire was seen around it; this abyssal fire displayed a more powerful animus than even the Three Defense Profound Energies Shield earlier!
Ji Yuan, Ding Xiaoxiao and the Goddess Zhen Ying had all turn ashen immediately; it was because the Heaven Destiny Old Man was not dead yet.
The profound voice of the Heaven Destiny Old Man could be heard echoing from the animated golden skeleton, "Luckily, I have a trump card. As long as you cannot destroy completely, I cannot be killed! In time to come, even my flesh will be restored. This is the result of I absorbing the destinies of many sons and daughters of the Heavens! My destiny is greater than anyone of you here! Also, in this form, I am able to use powers beyond life and death. Today, you will know regrets, hopelessness, and despairs but salvations will not come to you!"
Ji Yuan was trembling because he had already used all his profound strength and he could barely stand firm; he wanted to fight this Heaven Destiny Old Man but he had been through too many battles in such a short time that he was utterly exhausted.
Also, he had already used his most powerful trump and Ding Xiaoxiao had also used her most powerful trump card.
As for Ding Xiaoxiao, there was a dark look in her crimson eyes as she murmured. "Maybe it is finally time for us to part..."
