Chapter 2806: Five Senses Deprivation

This was also the sentiment of all observers on both sides.

Zhong Shengguang stared fixedly at the Water Moon Mirror, shaking his head.

He wasn't clear on it either.

The progression and dimension of this battle were no longer something the vast majority of people could comprehend.

Even Bai Zhantian didn't know that, at this moment, in He Lingchuan's eyes, three red threads shot in from afar, connecting to the divinity above his shoulder.

Yes, when He Lingchuan peered through Bai Zhantian's karmic lines, he deliberately filtered out other complex connections, leaving only this one critical set:

The connection between Bai Zhantian's "Power Divinity" and the "Wax and Wane" Marks.

The Power Divinity manifested above his shoulder, while the three Marks were respectively located in the battlefield zones where the fighting between the two armies was most intense.

Energy lost by living beings in combat would be absorbed by the Marks, transported into Bai Zhantian's divinity, and converted into pure divine power for his use.

This was the fundamental reason Bai Zhantian grew more courageous the longer he fought, and stronger the more he battled, in the Asura Field that everyone feared:

His divinity and Marks were practically born for protracted warfare.

No wonder the Holy Venerable Lingxu insisted on sending him down to the lower realm this time.

With the Fate Divinity's empowerment, He Lingchuan saw these three karmic lines clearly.

When he raised his saber, the snake bracelet circled his wrist once, the snake head rearing high, red light blazing in its eyes.

He slashed out that arc lightly, seemingly without killing power—

In fact, it truly had no killing power, because the target of this slash was not Bai Zhantian, but those three red lines!

Invisible saber qi crisscrossed, silently severing the karmic lines between the Power Divinity and the energy Marks.

Just as this arc finished, He Lingchuan immediately appeared before Bai Zhantian, not wasting a single second. Using his body as a spear, he crashed straight into him, knocking Bai Zhantian back several steps. The latter, because his right shoulder had been pierced through, also had limited use of his right hand, so the twin axes merged again, held in his left hand to block.

This kind of penetrating wound was especially suited for karmic power to wreak havoc; Bai Zhantian felt this malicious force desperately drilling into his blood vessels and bone seams, forcing him to expend a large amount of divine power to drive it out, with very poor efficiency.

If He had studied this peculiar power earlier, it would have been good.

Right in the gap when He switched hands, He Lingchuan seized the chance to gather power, sending a Tidal Slash crashing down.

Twenty years of profound study of combat arts, and "Tidal Slash" was no longer what it used to be; before it was merely a few saber qi crisscrossing and spreading out, but now it was like a great tide passing through a narrow gorge, the crested waves jostling and colliding, growing more and more fierce, more and more high-spirited, until by the time it reached Bai Zhantian it was a sky-covering, earth-enveloping expanse of cold light.

When the real deal attacks, it's not something a clone can compare to.

If Bai Zhantian had been a bit more careful earlier, he might not have had his eyes blinded by He Lingchuan's clone technique.

But the current situation leaves no room for "ifs" anymore.

This Tidal Slash naturally couldn't take Bai Zhantian's life, but it struck him straight back thirty-odd zhang, like batting away an iron discus, directly flattening a low hill behind him.

Before Bai Zhantian could stand, He Lingchuan's assault followed like a shadow.

Having experienced "Time Severing," he actually switched from defense to offense, actively launching a fierce attack on Bai Zhantian.

The other Bega immortals and demons wanted to step forward to help, but the cold, stern gang qi filling the field had no eyes; whoever approached would be out of luck.

Why was Tiger Wing acting out of character? The Bega generals and Heavenly Demons were all speculating. Could it be he was playing pig to eat tiger before?

But just as He Lingchuan rushed close, Bai Zhantian also leaped up from the low hill, crashing toward him.

If this instant were frozen, onlookers would see the blood droplets falling from his body.

Bai Zhantian was also heavily injured.

But he was like a wounded tiger, instead roused to supreme fighting spirit.

He Lingchuan yielded not a fraction; the two great powerhouses looked about to clash passionately once more.

But in the split second before impact, the Power Divinity on Bai Zhantian's shoulder suddenly erupted with incomparably dazzling intense light!

His battle-axe already had orange light flickering, but this time it was his divinity emitting light, its intensity at least a thousand times that of a flashbang. Like a sun suddenly rising in the dark night, and the blazing sun at high noon at that.

The so-called Golden Crow in the sky was nothing more than this.

Not to mention almost everyone on the battlefield was left with a vast white expanse before their eyes, even the spectators outside observing through various divine abilities and arts were covering their eyes at the first moment, lest they be blinded.

He Lingchuan, at virtually zero distance from Bai Zhantian, naturally bore the brunt, his vision a field of snow, unable to see the enemy at all.

No, not only that; in this instant, he actually lost all five senses.

But this wasn't an explosion; He Lingchuan wasn't blasted away, otherwise he could have escaped instead.

Bai Zhantian cleverly used the divine ability of True Lord Cangxi hidden in this physical vessel.

Cangxi Cangxi, what does the character 'xi' mean? It is this peerless intense light. In ancient times, immortals cultivated myriad divine abilities; True Lord Cangxi's "Dawn Light Sudden Manifestation" could, in a finger-snap, make all enemies lose focus and spirit, dizzy and blurred, leaving them for his slaughter.

No living creature's eyes could possibly be immune to a sudden assault of intense light at this level. True Lord Cangxi had blinded quite a few immortals.

Bai Zhantian didn't directly use this divine ability, but transferred all the true power and divine abilities stored in True Lord Cangxi's physical vessel to his own Power Divinity.

The first two axes had already used up most of His divine power, yet General Tiger Wing was unscathed; this third axe forced Him to calculate carefully.

Besides, the Power Divinity could optimize True Lord Cangxi's divine ability, making this "Dawn Light Sudden Manifestation" not only blind the prey, but also directly strip the enemy of their five senses!

When it comes down to it, an immortal's divine ability is also a kind of "power," and can be deconstructed by Bai Zhantian, reset by the Power Divinity.

On this battlefield, sudden blindness is basically a death sentence, let alone adding loss of hearing and tactile sensation. The only way to survive is to open one's divine sense at the first moment. But it happened too suddenly; who has that kind of adaptability?

The opponent is a Great Heavenly Demon renowned for power and speed.

Seeing He Lingchuan instinctively turn his head, exposing the opening at his neck, how could Bai Zhantian be polite? He chopped down with an axe.

This slash originally swallowed mountains and rivers; using it just to chop off a head seemed like overkill.

In truth, this is the third axe of the three consecutive axes: the Sentiment Severing.

Bai Zhantian's first axe severed "space."

The second axe severed "time."

Then the third axe, with the greatest power, to achieve the effect of annihilating everything, must sever the greatest variable between "time" and "space": "existence."

In Bai Zhantian's understanding, within a segment of spacetime, there must be a variable existing; otherwise the continuation of this spacetime segment has no meaning.

For example, the predecessors of Tianluo Star and Da Fanghu were a World Heart Core; at that time it had not yet grown into a complete world, there was no distinction of withering and flourishing, no division of four seasons, so time and space both had no meaning for it; whether a thousand years, ten thousand years, or hundreds of millions of years, it was just unchanging.

Continuing like this, it would only enjoy eternal loneliness, unless—
