Chapter 1709: Endless Annihilation Bombardment!

Immortal Art!

In this small place called the Ancient God Domain world cluster, a true Immortal Art of the human race had appeared!

This Immortal Art was hidden deep within an indescribable, broken palm. Over the long ages of history, no one knew how many times supreme beings had practiced it, how many times they had used it; it had long since been etched into every instinct of flesh and blood.

Even though it had perished for hundreds of millions of years, the instinct within its flesh and blood still remained.

This instinct, triggered by the Ancient God Ancestral Founder who had nurtured this arm for hundreds of thousands of years, instantly produced a terrifying, earth-shattering might!

In the wind, spring rain fell drop by drop like silk threads, the clouds and mist hazy, as if one had arrived in the third month of fireworks, the scene of a Jiangnan water town—so beautiful it stole one's breath.

In a daze, everyone saw such a figure.

A beautiful, gentle woman holding an oil-paper umbrella, walking along the spring field ridges, the rain misty, the earth reviving, tender sprouts of grass peeking out, full of vibrant life.

Rain Master.

This name appeared in the hearts of all living beings.

This name then swiftly vanished from the hearts of many living beings, because their divine souls could not bear the information of this name—even the most abbreviated information was unbearable, just as human eyes cannot see the vast majority of light in nature; physical hardware has innate shortcomings.

Those qualified to hear the full name of this title—only three people were present.

These very three, the instant they heard this name, forgot it swiftly again, as if the endless cosmic starry sky rejected this name, wishing to completely erase this trace.

Amid such beautiful spring drizzle, a terrifying killing intent surged like tides, falling upon the blue-clothed youth and the nine great deep-space fleets.

A single raindrop could send the Great Sun Sword Master retreating.

And here, there existed countless raindrops!

It was simply inconceivable, hard to comprehend, completely violating the law of conservation of matter and energy.

The spiritual energy remaining in this arm was already extremely, extremely scarce. Theoretically, it was utterly impossible for it to erupt with power of this level; the material foundation was completely insufficient.

But the fact was truly appearing before their eyes.

This was not an illusion; the raindrops filling the sky were truly so terrifying, each raindrop so real and devoid of emptiness, plunging one into despair.

"This is a formation, this is the power of heaven and earth, or perhaps something else…"

"It's like triggering a river dam… there must exist a spell node, a spell node that can be broken through!"

Jiang Ding growled lowly.

This was the common trait of such spells; it absolutely could not be purely the cultivator's own power.

However, the rain threads filling the sky had already arrived.

Clang!

The Taiqing Flying Sword leapt from its sheath, slashing out a dusky sword strike that froze the cosmic star river, transforming the cosmic star river into a solidified painting scroll—

a river painting scroll, within which karma, spiritual energy, and rules were all frozen.

Ever since the Materialist Solar Sword Soul had metamorphosed into the Great Sun Immortal-Mortal Sword Soul, the might of this space-annihilating sword had surged violently, innately capable of imprisoning spiritual heaven and earth.

At this moment, with one sword slash, it indeed blocked the power of heaven and earth for an instant.

Crack!

However, merely an instant later.

As more and more raindrops fell, accumulating drop by drop, and once the accumulation reached its limit, a thunderous boom was heard, and the star river painting scroll shattered, collapsing into raindrops filling the sky.

Countless raindrops accumulated into a Yangtze-like great river, crashing toward the blue-clothed youth beneath the sky, locking onto everything.

A mistake was made!

The more these raindrops were blocked, the more terrifying the consequences!

"Kill!"

Jiang Ding drew his sword.

He gathered the power of the Six Paths of Reincarnation of heaven and earth into one sword, merged into a single strike that destroyed the Five Elements of heaven and earth, slashing head-on at the Tianhe falling from the sky.

This terrifying sword condensed countless lights, condensed all the dusky light of Law Annihilation, converging upon a single point.

This sword stabbed straight into the Tianhe.

Boom!

Heaven collapsed and earth split!

The Tianhe shattered, countless raindrops transforming into water mist and breaking apart into emptiness, losing their spirituality; the Tianhe was cleaved apart head-on.

"Puh!"

On the other side, a blue-clothed youth vomited blood and retreated violently, slamming hard into deep space.

He barely propped himself standing in the void with his sword, his face deathly pale, his aura dropping by a large margin, his pupils fixed dead on the dark clouds and raindrops in the sky.

This rain-summoning cloud showed no change whatsoever!

No change at all from being shattered by the enemy!

In the sky, countless pitter-pattering raindrops continued to fall, eternal and unchanging, neither consuming much magic power nor delaying any time, existing as if eternal.

So long as the enemy lives, the Immortal Art does not perish!

Such a terrifying existence made one suffocate, made one despair.

"Die!"

"How could an Immortal Art be something a mere whippersnapper like you can resist?"

From within the dark clouds, the inheritor of the Ancient God Ancestral Founder spoke in a cold, sinister whisper.

Endless raindrops fell pitter-patter, echoing his words, a terrifying shadow enveloping heaven above and earth below, as if heralding some destiny, as this world cluster once again welcomed the era of the Ancient God Dao.

"An Immortal Art above the embryonic form…"

"Immortal Art…"

Jiang Ding's gaze turned scarlet and scorching, and he laughed coldly: "It is indeed incomparably mysterious and wonderful, but you cannot fully grasp this arm of the unknown existence!"

"The residual power within this arm of the unknown existence is likewise far too scarce; having endured the erosion of countless ages, how could it compare to its peak when it dominated everything?"

"The only pity is that you do not entirely belong to this Sovereign."

"That is a regret."

Boom!

Rumble!

At the location of the Immortal Gate's nine major deep-space fleets, as the Immortal Gate fleet entered a perilous situation where it could be annihilated at any moment, all authorization restrictions were lifted.

A chaotic blossom of starlight lit up, then another, then another…

Endlessly!

The Immortal Gate's supreme forbidden nuclear weapons, quasi-ninth-rank Dharma-Destroying Annihilation Treasures, blazed forth unceasingly at this moment, blooming again and again.

Boom!

A forbidden nuclear weapon fell above the Immortal Gate's nine major deep-space fleets; a terrifying, soundless destructive explosion appeared amid the cosmic star river, instantly sweeping clean the raindrops across a stretch of heaven and earth.

Boom!

Another forbidden nuclear weapon landed atop the Great Sun Sword Master's head, clearing away all the raindrops; the terrifying high temperature and Dharma-Destroying force caused those immortal-technique raindrops to evaporate into nothing, their inner spirituality utterly shattered, becoming nothing more than ordinary water vapor, and in the end even the water vapor was sublimated away.

These forbidden weapons from the spiritless cosmos possessed a completely unreasonable destructive might!

Two forbidden nuclear weapons exploded, instantly clearing the rain threads across a stretch of sky.

Yet countless rain threads still fell from the sky.

The Immortal Gate's response was to fire quasi-ninth-rank forbidden nuclear weapons with equal unceasing fury!

Boom!

Rumble!

Rumble…

One after another, quasi-ninth-rank forbidden nuclear weapons launched outward from the Immortal Gate's deep-space fleets; terrifying Dharma-Destroying annihilation dust spread throughout heaven and earth, the poison of Dharma-Destroying everywhere, seemingly without end.

This scene was strikingly similar to the past battle of the Immortal Gate's Great Sun Sword Pavilion, where forbidden nuclear weapons likewise erupted in endless succession.

The difference was that the Immortal Gate of this moment was countless times more powerful; the sixth-rank forbidden nuclear weapons once fired had become quasi-ninth-rank forbidden nuclear weapons, enough to destroy heaven and earth.
