Chapter 438

"You want to run!"

Tai Bai Jin Xing immediately sensed the Archangel's intentions.

"Never mind, it seems no one else is coming to die today, so I'll send you on your way!"

Tai Bai Jin Xing radiated brilliant light, and a majestic force from the ancient sword in his hand locked onto the Archangel.

"You madman!" the Archangel shouted in utter shock.

Tai Bai Jin Xing, that bastard, actually wanted to risk his life with him; even though Tai Bai Jin Xing already held a huge advantage, he was somehow more anxious than him.

Is this even a human? Isn't this just a lunatic?

But the portal behind the Archangel had completely shattered, cutting off contact with the rear.

This novel's latest chapter (section, at 6>@/9 book#... please you! to six! nine: book)

In the next instant, the whole world resumed its flow.

"Just a defeated subordinate, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning!"

Using offense as defense, they protected the portal built by Jiuzhou.

Unfortunately, the one slain was not the true body; the opponent could still revive in the heavenly reincarnation pool, which is truly regrettable.

Among them, the most decisive was the Olympus divine faction, which had almost no attachment and withdrew directly from the starry battlefield.

Although there was no substantial damage, just a simple interference, when masters clash, a single line can decide victory or defeat.

It was the same when they previously took part in the cross‑realm war of Wei Qing and Huo Qubing.

If it weren't for the many divine artifacts she wielded, that fiery spear would have pierced her throat back then.

After all, during the earlier melee between Tai Bai Jin Xing and the Archangel, many people instinctively avoided their combat zone.

Tai Bai Jin Xing hadn't slain many such enemies back then.

However, some factions aware of Li Jing's reputation had already begun to withdraw quietly.

"You madman, you're insane!"

The path of killing harms both others and oneself; Tai Bai Jin Xing is indeed risking his life.

Some are Military Strategists who have risen, others are celestial beings who have joined the ranks; these are the backbone of the Heavenly Court.

"Indeed!" Li Jing couldn't help but nod.

When such heavenly soldiers gathered in the tens of millions under Li Jing's unified command, even Tai Bai Jin Xing could not face this massive Heavenly Court army.

Mu Yi and his companions were also embedded within the battle formation, their power joining the great army's cycle.

If it weren't truly overwhelming, why would he follow the army on this expedition?

"Heh heh heh, risking your life? Who's playing that game with you?"

A line of blood appeared on the Archangel's cheek, and then his entire body split apart along it.

The Archangel floated silently in the void, his fate unknown.

If the Archangel had self‑detonated at his peak, even Tai Bai Jin Xing would have gained nothing today.

When the killing intent reached its zenith, the ancient sword in Tai Bai Jin Xing's hand suddenly swung down.

Mu Yi's pupils constricted sharply; he sensed a familiar aura.

For most celestial beings, this feeling is wondrous, but for Mu Yi, it is not unfamiliar.

At this moment, a great holy sun rose in the starry sky, yet its sanctity that blankets all was not felt; only brutal scorching and endless heat were present.

Mu Yi's blood, already boiling from the melee, grew even hotter, and the disaster qi of the military master within him pulsed, tinting his eyes with a blood‑red hue.

"Kill!"

When they saw Mu Yi, their eyes brightened.

However, the holy light moved at incredible speed, spreading outward; these opportunistic demons had no chance of survival and were instantly vaporized by the light.

Tai Bai Jin Xing's complexion changed, and he swiftly retreated.

"Is Li Jing really that terrifying?"

More terrifying than the previous full‑force strike, even before the sword was drawn, the mere aura caused the entire starry sky to fall into a stasis as if time had stopped.

Why would they specifically recruit a bunch of greenhorns to join the campaign?

"King Li Tian!" Tai Bai Jin Xing shouted loudly.

He wasn't flattering; he had observed Mu Yi's performance.

"Kill!"

Everything in the world was slowing down.

Just as Athena feared, when the portal behind Li Jing was completed, a massive tide of heavenly soldiers surged out.

In any case, their mission was to kill, kill, kill, annihilating any enemy not from Jiuzhou.

Leveraging his unique advantage, Mu Yi once again slew a fire‑wielding foreign deity; the foe's desperate resistance didn't harm Mu Yi but affected the surrounding beings.

Heavenly Court soldiers come in two types; one type has physical bodies, and these are elite troops, also reserves for heavenly generals.

Although he said so verbally, Tai Bai Jin Xing was genuinely pleased. A true god of this tier ranks highly across the Multiverse; even slaying a single avatar counts as a great achievement.

"If you want to die, I won't stop you!" Athena replied without turning her head.

"Athena, are we retreating just like that?" Sun God Apollo asked, somewhat unwilling.

After he exhausted his strength, those who had been secretly watching would probably be unable to resist intensifying their probing.

At this moment, the entire starry sky was almost shrouded in his boundless killing intent.

The titan that brawled with the Giant Spirit God was the one that fell hard into the hands of the Giant Spirit God and Mu Yi.

Although he initially suppressed the tremor with his own strong will, he still couldn't move freely.

His swift and decisive killing of the opponent was not unrelated to Mu Yi's assistance.

Others may not know how many came from Jiuzhou, but they themselves are perfectly aware.

He spent his days cultivating and nurturing his nature, never fighting anyone, for a full three thousand years, gathering all his murderous intent into this single sword.

"These guys all have the same flaw!" Mu Yi scowled. Is this the war of the deities? Relying on the fact that they will not die completely, even in defeat they still take people as sacrifices—truly a bunch of terrorists.

This is the second one that He didn't know how many years it took to cultivate.

All deities under the commander, except Zeus, Hades, and Poseidon, wage war across the various starry skies, fighting to strengthen Olympus Mountain.

Unlike the previously grandiose sword, this one of Tai Bai Jin Xing shows not a trace of any fiery aura.

Though at first it was because Mu Yi's special status drew extra attention, later it was found that Mu Yi is like a fish in water during the war.

"The Path of Killing!"

And Jiuzhou's contraction did not disturb the battlefield; these forces already bloodshot with killing, without Jiuzhou's interference, became even more ferocious.

There is also a type that has no body, only a soul; most of those imprisoned are cultivators fearing the torment of reincarnation, voluntarily serving as cannon fodder in the Heavenly Court, and some are sentenced to atone for sins…

If two Archangels of that caliber were to break out, they'd be hard to deal with today.

"Three thousand years!" Tai Bai Jin Xing calmly sheathed his sword.

For a deity, defeating a hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers is the watershed between strength and weakness.

He originally intended to break through the Emperor Lord this way, but now it seems futile; however, slaying an Archangel whose power opposes his own still makes his three thousand years of effort not in vain.

He also plans to ascend to Archangel Lord through a Trinity method; he must not sacrifice any part of himself in a place like this.

The Archangel roared almost screaming, saying he truly couldn't understand why that bastard Tai Bai Jin Xing would nearly burn his lifespan to lose a strike that surpasses his own limits.

Athena's gaze was full of apprehension; she could never forget what happened the first time she clashed with the Jiuzhou army.

The ancient sword in Tai Bai Jin Xing's hand continuously exuded murderous intent.

Li Jing stroked his beard, waiting for the rest of the Heavenly Court's main forces to arrive; then he would let those foreign barbarians know why, despite his modest strength, he could sit in the position of Grand Marshal of the Heavenly Court's demon‑subduing army.

He knows clearly that, once targeted, he cannot escape; now he has only the path of hard resistance.

"This sword, you prepared it for three thousand years?"

Of course, the main reason is that the phantom of a treasure pagoda hovers over this vacuum area, limiting the self‑destruct's power to a certain region.

"Then my death won't be unjust!"

"King Li Tian, be careful; from now on, the enemy may become even more insane!" Tai Bai Jin Xing, while delighted, also reminded Li Jing.

"Tai Bai Jin Xing, just rest assured; the portal will be completed shortly, the main force will arrive soon, and then just watch my performance!"

Li Jing congratulated Tai Bai Jin Xing as he retreated back into his formation.

In the next instant, the world lit up! The Archangel split in two by Tai Bai Jin Xing began to emit endless light and heat from its shattered body.

"You'll see it right away!"

Only this time, he went from a lowly grunt to a vanguard.

All entities on the attack path were erased.

Whether a deity with weak divine power or one with moderate divine power, in the face of such an attack there is absolutely no resistance.

This is already a power on another level.

After unleashing the peerless sword, Tai Bai Jin Xing seemed to regain his former serenity, his gaze wandering the battlefield, continuously commenting on the performances of various disciples.

After all, most of the self‑destruct's massive force had been blocked by Li Jing's artifact, and since he himself was also slain by Tai Bai Jin Xing, he was essentially spent, so the self‑destruct's power was not astonishing.

She could defeat Ares and fully absorb the war god's divine office largely because she drew much wisdom from the Jiuzhou army, enabling her to reach this level.

"I have nurtured this sword for three thousand years, all for this moment!" Tai Bai Jin Xing sneered, full of mockery toward the Archangel.

"Congratulations to Tai Bai Jin Xing for slaying a great general of the foreign deity, a deed to be recorded!"

After the holy light dissipated, the area where Heaven once stood turned almost entirely into a vacuum, leaving only scattered angels drifting within.

All things were shrouded in that utterly pure murderous intent.

He didn't slay many foreign barbarians himself, but he succeeded in completely muddling the entire starry‑sky battlefield.

Beneath the pitch‑black starry sky curtain, drifting ash and molten material glowing red and radiating intense heat could be seen everywhere—a trace left by a deity fighting to the death.

The erupting holy light swept across, scorching all darkness and filth in the starry sky! The dark creature that had been fighting Heaven's angels amid the chaos now shifted from cruelty to panic, from wanting to tear the enemy apart to desperately trying to flee.

Mu Yi was immensely shocked; he knew Tai Bai Jin Xing favored killing, but he didn't expect Tai Bai Jin Xing to follow not the sharp‑gold path but the purest Path of Killing.

He hadn't been far away, so he was affected; fortunately he wasn't an evil creature, and the holy light's suppression on him was mild—only a severe burning sensation on his skin, with no other discomfort.

Not only does he slaughter massively himself, but he also knows how to support his teammates.

He could slay a true god, and Mu Yi's assistance was truly indispensable.

Taking advantage of the chaos, he slew several deities; most crucially, Li Jing saw in Mu Yi the excellent qualities of a Military Strategist officer.

Apollo was somewhat puzzled; he didn't understand why this being, whose divine office is war and wisdom and who even directly toppled Ares, would be so wary of a not‑very‑powerful Jiuzhou celestial deity.

Everyone turned their gaze toward the Archangel.

The void trembled, the world feared! As the target, the Archangel's holy light on his body boiled like hot water, raging intensely! The Archangel's eyes reddened, his whole body burned with holy flame, and the massive angelic phantom behind him began to continuously condense.

Seeing it about to finish, Li Jing began to signal the golden retreat.

The battlefield being pushed sideways, and the scene where, in the midst of the battlefield, a rider charged ahead, tearing apart the most elite Golden Holy Warrior under her command and rushing straight at her, flashed back in her mind.

Meanwhile, the portal behind the Archangel surged with pure holy light power, clearly the Archangel's true form was desperate, willing to expend its own source to retrieve its avatar.

He hadn't expected that even after retirement, he could achieve such a great feat again; it was indeed a cause for joy.

However, with this sword, the opponent's vital energy is severely damaged; without a thousand or hundred years, they probably won't rise again to stir up trouble.

Various situations cannot be generalized, but what's the same is that these Heavenly Soldiers are massive war machines forged by the Heavenly Court, cannon fodder among cannon fodder.

Isn't it because they have confidence to back it up that they made this choice?

It seemed as if everything would be judged by this holy light, and the starry sky, under this radiance, fully blossomed into brilliance.

Mu Yi also didn't know which camp these seemingly completely different guys belonged to.

"Oh? Mu Tianjun is very active!"

The surrounding angels at this moment even simultaneously chose self‑sacrifice to provide power to the Archangel.

Li Jing waved the command flag, the Cloud Energy of the ten‑million‑strong army gathered together, and a military attack swept across the battlefield.

Even those deities possessing great divine power could only flee in a sorry state to save their lives.

The Heavenly Court's army stepped onto the Golden Light Avenue and immediately began hunting down those sorry‑state fleeing deities among the stars.

As for those other lackeys, they were simply wiped out from the universe with a casual gesture.

No matter where they hid, even if it was on those planets, they were mercilessly erased.
