Shen Yin Wang Zuo (Sealed Divine Throne) - Chapter 849
Chapter 849: The Rhythm of Terror and Sadness (II)
The influence of the deaths of other ninth step demon powerhouses affected the battlefield in a less significant manner. Coupled with the Moon Demon God and Star Demon God supporting their respective clans, the scales of victory still ended up tipping towards the demons gradually due to their original difference in strength. However, as the differences in strength was not too great and the Star Demon God and Moon Demon God had always been going easy on the battlefield, they were able to achieve a balance.
Three thousand meters in the air, the most important battle between Long Haochen and the Demon God Emperor entered another level as well.
When Long Haochen opened his eyes again, it ws the first time he felt he had the power to truly challenge the Demon God Emperor. Before the Divine Throne of Eternity and Creation had awakened, he actually did not kow that this supra divine tool had such power.
The Devil Dragon Pillar behind the Demon God Emperor stood like a pillar holding up the sky. Under its influence, the Demon God Emperor’s aura rose to an unprecedented level of terror.
The huge, black sword slowly descended in the air, stopping before the Demon God Emperor. The light from the inscriptions on the sword were gradually withdrawn into the sword. However, the inscriptions remained dim.
The Demon God Emperor’s eyes had become completely dark golden in that moment. He raised his right hand and held the hilt of his sword in a reverse grip. He looked at Long Haochen coldly, “Ever since my spiritual energy surpassed five hundred thousand, I haven’t encountered a single opponent that’s enough for me to use my full strength. Very impressive. As the inheritor of my bloodline, you actually do have the strength to challenge me. Actually, it’s a kind of joy for a powerhouse like me to encounter an opponent like you. Just let me see just what level you can reach and how much strength you can force out of me. This sword is called the Devil Dragon Sword. It originates from a piece of dragon bone from my body. It possesses its current power from being forged for several hundred years in my body. The sword, the Devil Dragon Pillar and I are one.”
As he said that, the hilt of the Devil Dragon Sword revolved around in the Demon God Emperor’s right hand and the blade now pointed upwards. The Demon God Emperor held it in a standard grip, pointing it to his side. The huge sword that seemed disproportionate to his size immediately lit up with a dark, blue light, while the inscriptions of the sword shone with dark golden light.
Long Haochen also raised his right hand and slowly gripped the Sword of Eternity and Creation right before him. In that moment, many wondrous sensations filled his body. It was not powerful, but it made him feel like he could cut through all obstacles and create a miracle.
The nine symbols on the Sword of Eternity and Creation all lit up the moment he gripped the sword, while the lines on Long Haochen’s Armour of Eternity and Creation also seemed to come alive.
His body gave off a noble spirit. Against the Demon God Emperor that had the Devil Dragon Pillar as his background, the noble spirit actually pushed back the aura of darkness from the Demon God Emperor. Not only did it match it evenly, it even showed signs of gaining the upper hand.
The Demon God Emperor’s gaze seemed rather stern. Even though there was only a sliver of aura from the creator god that remained in the Divine Throne of Eternity and Creation, the creator god was still the greatest god who had created the entire world and the countless realms! In a certain sense, a realm was a part of the creator god’s body, while the principles that bounded the entire world were created by the creator god as well.
Even if Long Haochen’s supra divine tool only possessed a sliver of the creator god’s aura, it was still extremely terrifying to any opponent, including a powerhouse like the Demon God Emperor.
The battle began in the next moment, Long Haochen charged forwards first. With a flash of white light, he appeared before the Demon God Emperor in the next moment. Because he wielded the Sword of Eternity and Creation in a reverse grip, he directly flicked it sword upwards.
If someone was watching the battle, they would have witnessed the magnificent scene that Long Haochen had created. A long streak was left behind in the area that Long Haochen had just flashed past. The streak was composed of countless figures of light. These figures of light depicted the sight of nature growing, and even the illumination from the sun, moon and stars.
The Demon God Emperor immediately blocked with his sword and parried Long Haochen’s attack. The two supra divine tool swords had finally clashed under their strongest state.
In the moment the two swords collided, the inscriptions on the Devil Dragon Sword produced a resounding dragon’s roar, while all nine symbols on Long Haochen’s Sword of Eternity and Creation shone brilliantly.
Long Haochen and the Demon God Emperor had engaged in close combat once again. However, Long Haochen was no longer the one completely overpowered by the Demon God Emperor.
Clang! With an ear-splitting explosion, Long Haochen and the Demon God Emperor were both knocked away. They were actually evenly matched in that clash. None of them managed to do anything to their opponent. However, the Demon God Emperor’s Devil Dragon Sword produced a gentle thrum after the clash, which made the Demon God Emperor’s expression change slightly.
Although it was just a clash and Long Haochen and the Demon God Emperor were unable to determine victory through it, the strength separating the two swords was completely brought to light.
Long Haochen’s cultivation had reached the ninth rank of the ninth step, but he was still not as great as the Demon God Emperor’s one million spiritual energy! However, they were evenly matched. This demonstrated the advantage the Sword of Eternity and Creation possess over the Devil Dragon Sword, while the gentle thrumming from the Devil Dragon Sword demonstrated its weakness.
With a flip of his hand, the Sword of Eternity and Creation was now wielded in a standard grip. He brought his left hand to the hilt as well as he looked at the Demon God Emperor calmly. The gemstone on his chest shone with resplendent green light as the sliver of aura from the creator god immediately erupted.
Nature’s Bloom. It was still the Nature’s Bloom from the three sword techniques of eternity, but this time, the Demon God Emperor had become never so stern before.
The sky became green as a dense aura of life immediately reached over five hundred kilometers away.
The Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass that had always been in a cold and terrible environment suddenly gained a hint of warmth, which rapidly strengthened.
The sky had suddenly become green. Whether it were the humans or the demons, they all raised their heads instinctively to look. They saw something they would never forget in their lives.
A wondrous sight appeared in the sky like a mirage. The projections of countless, green plants appeared in the air. These plants seemed to be growing constantly, covering the entire sky. The wonderful aura of blooming nature even made the demons rather stunned.
The greenery that seemed to stretch endlessly could even be seen from the Exorcist Mountain Pass under the control of the Assassin Temple. The dense aura of life descended from the air, which brought on a delightful sensation that their spiritual energy was increasing for powerhouses of all elements apart from darkness. Without a doubt, this phenomenon strengthened the humans weakened the demons. Even though it was not powerful, it heavily influenced the morale and might of both sides.
The Moon Demon God Agares’ eyes were filled with disbelief. He finally understood why the Demon God Emperor had used the Devil Dragon Pillar. Long Haochen was even more powerful than they had imagined him to be! Just this phenomenon had demonstrated he had the power to challenge the Demon God Emperor.
The Demon God Emperor did not just grow stern. When the Nature’s Bloom was used, h took action.
He slowly raised the Devil Dragon Sword in his hand and gripped it with both hands as well. At the same time, a strange hum rang out form his body. Dark blue light erupted from his chest, rising up in the form of a huge, dark blue ball of light, fusing into the Devil Dragon Sword.
A black hole immediately appeared on the tip of the Devil Dragon Sword. The black hole rapidly expanded, ripping through the green landscape from the Nature’s Bloom in the blink of an eye. Dense pulses of spiritual energy caused unimaginable destruction in the air, while dark blue lightning crackled in the surroundings of the black hole.
The Devil Dragon Pillar silently vanished from the air, while the black hole grew at an astonishing speed, as if the black hole could absorb all energies. The lightning in its surroundings became stronger and stronger, as thick bolts of lightning constantly landed on the green landscape destructively.
One created while the other destroyed. They matched each other’s attacks.
However, to the Demon God Emperor’s surprise, Long Haochen did not directly use the Nature’s Bloom as an attack this time. Instead, it only seemed like preparation.
When the black hole grew to a thousand meters across, it was finally contained. The calls of beasts and birds began to appear, as insects and animals began to appear in the green world of nature. The insects and animals evolved at an astonishing rate. Whenever they developed, they would become even more powerful and gradually, magical beasts began to appear.
This wondrous, magnificent sight instead gave the Demon God Emperor unprecedented pressure. This was clearly the second sword technique of eternity, Creation of the Living.
However, the Creation of the Living had been used with the Nature’s Bloon. The world of nature had gained life. It gave off an aura that abided with the principles of the world.
Agares’ gaze softened when he saw this. It also gradually became determined, while his attacks towards Shu Yongxiao became more and more powerless. His gaze remained glued to the sky as he became fascinated by it.
He liked this aura of creation. He did not want destruction. He wanted existence.
The Star Demon God Vassago had also been stunned by this sight. Although his feelings were not as deep as the Moo Demon God’s, he could sense that his and the Moon Demon God’s plan really might succeed. Long Haochen really might be able to defeat the Demon God Emperor!
Beyond the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass, the powerhouses of the Temple Union and the Demon Race gradually separated and their battles stopped momentarily. They were landed on the ground and the walls of the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass. All of the powerhouses raised their heads to witness this wondrous phenomenon of the sky.
