Chapter 492 - 312: Evolving Chaos, Apocalypse Grinding 1
No longer probing.
But fighting with all his might.
In an instant, the power of destruction engulfed the Qiankun World, and the divine light that burst forth illuminated the nine heavens and ten earths. The terrifying fluctuations forced Shi Lei and the others to retreat a million miles away.
Suddenly, a Sword Qi swept across the sky, splitting several stars in the endless depths of space, and its spreading power reached the very edge of heaven. Another palm appeared out of nowhere, directly annihilating a swath of the starry sky.
The fearsome attack seemed intent on destroying this piece of heaven and earth.
A nameless sadness filled the hearts of the myriad people on the land, as if death was approaching and heaven and earth were about to fall silent.
This terrifying premonition was even sensed by Shi Lei and the others, all of whom turned pale.
“He has actually become this powerful!” Chu Yang exclaimed in shock, “He has grown countless times stronger than during his battle with Bai Yuguang.” “This is what a true genius is!” Wu Shanhe sighed, “Ever since I arrived in this world, I have looked down upon all, not taking anyone seriously. But after meeting Brother Shi and others, my pride has been thoroughly crushed. Now, facing Brother Jiang’s power, I actually feel a sense of inferiority.”
It wasn’t just him; everyone present felt the same way.
Because the gap in strength wasn’t trivial; it made them lose all thoughts of challenging him.
“To be in the same era as him is our fortune, but also our misfortune!” Shi Lei said with a bitter smile, having already activated his Divine Eye. The divine light he burst forth reached thousands of miles away. Even so, it was difficult to peer into the real situation of the two people in the Great War.
“The fortunate part is, we always have a goal to strive for, urging us to continuously move forward, continuously unlocking our potential. The unfortunate part is, we have never been able to catch up,” sighed Shi Lei. Breaking free of the mortal constraints and proving oneself in the Divine Spirit Realm is just the beginning. We still have chances, chances to surpass him,” Chu Yang countered.
“I used to think so too,” Shi Lei couldn’t help but chuckle.
He remembered the time of the grand test, when he was full of youthful vigor, almost certain that first place was reserved for him.
Unfortunately, he lost.
Even with defeat, he wasn’t afraid, for there were many realms ahead, a longer path to travel. He believed he could catch up, he could surpass.
But the result…
Was the situation before him.
At that moment, Master transformed into a streak of light and charged towards the battleground. Surges of fluctuation emanated from around him, incessantly annihilating the Destruction Torrent.
A battlefield spanning ten thousand miles.
Only within a thousand miles radius.
Did he stop.
“He is actually this strong?” Jiang Liuli gasped in surprise.
“He has always been very strong,” Wang Qiutong said with a smile, “stronger than any of you can imagine. He seems low-key, but is detached from the mundane. Among us, perhaps only Brother Jiang can hold an advantage over him. As for us? None dare claim victory. Unexpectedly, he has grown so immensely powerful.”
”Indeed, he is worthy of being the Master,” Chen Bei exclaimed in admiration, “He must be walking a path akin to Brother Jiang’s, a rare talent seen once in many eras.”
In the land of the Great War.
The Master stood with his hands clasped behind his back, watching intently.
Such a battle was definitely an opportunity for him.
Whether it was Jiang Ming displaying his various forms of integrated Divine Skills, the potential he burst under pressure, or the Supreme Skill revealed by the Holy Master, all were the ultimate nourishment for him.
Observing, absorbing, deducing, and ultimately consolidating it into his own accumulation.
In the midst of the Great War.
Jiang Ming demonstrated various Divine Skills, unleashing boundless majesty, but still couldn’t defeat his opponent, not even managing to suppress him.
“Is a Lower God this strong?” A fist thrust out, with power overwhelming as a tidal wave, Jiang Ming spoke out.
“To you, of course, strong, but you too are very strong,” praised the Holy Master, “You have so far only displayed the fusion of mind and strength, not the fusion of divinity. Perhaps, if you activate the third layer of power, you can suppress me.”
With each palm and foot, he carried the might to collapse heaven and earth.
Between them, the Void turned into mush, with not a trace of the mortal world’s law and order remaining.
“The third layer?” Jiang Ming narrowed his eyes, “Take my punch first!”
Inch Fist, limit breakthrough.
Boom…
With a punch that exploded the sky, ready to annihilate everything, it was easily dodged by the Holy Master, followed by an annihilating channel appearing in the boundless starry sky, like a black river traversing the vast cosmos.
Your punch transcends the peak of the mortal world, but sadly, it’s useless against me,” said the Holy Master before he shouted, “Words follow the law, Temporal-Spatial Seal, seal the heavens, seal the earth, seal the soul!”
With a flick of his finger, Supreme Dao Resonance spread out, instantly halting even the terrifying destructive storm.
This was power that surpassed the mortal realm.
It was also a supreme rule that transcended the laws of the mortal world.
Jiang Ming shuddered, and for a moment, he couldn’t move at all.
For someone as powerful as him, even a fraction of a moment could spell catastrophic disaster.
“Mind, strength, spirit, merge!”
Jiang Ming reacted extremely quickly, commencing a Third Layer power fusion within his body and instantly unleashing a torrent of fearsome power, forcibly breaking the Holy Master’s restraints.
It caused the opponent to pause briefly.
“Twelve hundred principles, Heavenly Essence Strike!”
Jiang Ming’s power flowed, activating Supreme Skills as various rules merged together, elevating his momentum to a terrifying level akin to a primordial spirit.
With a press of his finger, the resplendent light dimmed the sun and moon.
“This finger…” the Holy Master’s pupils shrank as his body recoiled, traversing the boundless galaxy in a blink and retreating to the desolate edge of the universe.
Yet that finger, like an incurable sore, followed him.
Mountain of Ten Thousand Gods, suppress!”
The Holy Master suddenly stopped, his hands flying as he created three thousand symbols in the blink of an eye, invoking the highest power, and a mountain radiating limitless Divine Light descended.
Boom…
A loud explosion shook countless galaxies, and the power torrent it released obliterated all the stars in this part of the sky.
The Divine Mountain crumbled, and the Holy Master’s shoulder bore a hole clear through to the other side.
“All Principles Return to One, every Tao returns to the origin, what a Heavenly Essence Strike, impressive, indeed impressive!” the Holy Master exclaimed in admiration.
God Power burst forth within him, seeking to heal his wound, yet the power ingrained in the injury impeded his recovery, but Divine Spirits are Divine Spirits after all, and in just a moment, he expelled the foreign power completely.
The wound healed in the blink of an eye.
And you’re not taken down yet?” asked Jiang Ming, employing Divine Skills to cross thousands of galaxies in pursuit, frowning deeply at the sight of the opponent, “Are you truly just a Lower God?”
Your finger just now almost killed me, are you still not satisfied?” The Holy Master couldn’t help but shake his head, “I’ve basically used up ah my techniques, and you truly have the combat power of Divine Spirits, but Jiang Ming, I have one last Forbidden Law to test you for the final time!”
He raised both hands, separating them left and right, his gaze intense, as if a River of Destiny flowed within his eyes, without beginning or end, but suddenly connected from head to tail, forming a closed loop.
The Holy Master brought his hands together, and the surrounding starry sky collapsed, forming a Forbidden Area.
“In the mortal world, aside from the fear of the Divine Domain, Divine Spirits also possess a might that suppresses all else, and have a Divine Skill that manipulates the principles of the world!”
“With my divine heart, divinity, God Power, and command, all laws return to the origin, heaven and earth return to the burial, the era ends, transforming into Return to Ruins Chaos!”
“Chaos, form!”
As the Holy Master’s voice fell, the collapsing space around him suddenly erupted, turning into a land of illusion. Devoid of principle, order, sun, moon, and stars, and even without north, south, east, or west.
At this moment, Jiang Ming lost all sense of Shi Lei and others.
He even lost all sense of the Holy Master.
The surroundings were still filled with a terrifying pressure that kept increasing, along with a force that was corrupting his power.
What Divine Skills!” Jiang Ming was shocked, his pupils contracting to the size of needle tips, “But it’s not enough!”
“Not enough?” The voice of the Holy Master sounded, “Apocalypse Grinding, appear!”
Boom…
The next moment, Jiang Ming found gigantic grinding discs appearing above and below him; he was right in the middle. The grinding force between the rotating discs, crushing everything in its path, made his body emit groans as if it could not bear the load.
Terribly fearsome.
Utterly terrifying.
Even the defense formed by the fusion of the Four Elements was twisting wildly.
