Chapter 621: Primeval End, Void Calamity (4K)
Blood mist spread, and the central land of the primordial wilderness turned into a crimson ocean.
Above the azure heavens, at some unknown time, a drizzle of cow-hair-fine rain began to fall, yet within that drizzle, every drop was blood-red.
Two colossal beings, deep in the heavenly pole, fought with their lives on the line.
On the outskirts, one after another, towering, magnificent giants were born from the void.
Their bodies were entwined with wind, lightning, or time, space, ice, snow, and the radiance of the wood element, emerging from the earth, their forms seeming able to stand shoulder to shoulder with the stars of heaven.
Besides these, there were smaller divine-path giants, their bodies wrapped in rolling power of law, wherever they passed, countless mountains shattered, and the heavens cracked.
Wherever they went, the heavenly soldiers and generals, demon soldiers and generals were like flying mosquitoes and ants in the void, dying at a touch.
"True form of the primordial demon god!"
Zhang Jian gazed upon this scene, and could not help but change color.
The primordial demon gods are a terrifying existence that has pushed the power of the demon god's body to the extreme.
With a single hand, they tear open the heavens, scoop up the sun and moon; to them, the mighty power between heaven and earth is nothing but a drizzle.
Zhang Jian gazed far off at those terrifying giant gods, activating his divine eye to observe closely.
Even as blood welled from his eyes.
For him, this was a rare opportunity to directly comprehend such a terrifying realm of power.
Above the azure heavens, accompanied by the howls of countless great demons, there also appeared on the heavenly court towering beings with vast forms, wings that covered the sky and blotted out the sun, or imposing statures, their bodies gathered with immeasurable divine-path laws—powerful demon gods, and primordial deities walking forth from within.
For such beings, ordinary Dao arts were already ineffective.
With a wave of the hand came streaks of powerful divine light capable of easily tearing apart dimensional universes.
Within that powerful divine light lay hidden profound, mysterious, and moving secrets.
For seekers of the Dao like Zhang Jian, it made him feel an unbearable itch in his heart.
Those towering demon saints' true forms, their bodies entwined with substantive demonic aura, their use of demonic aura was similarly near to the great Dao of heaven and earth; every part of their bodies seemed born for slaughter.
Though they appeared clumsy, they were actually close to the heavenly and earthly Dao laws, allowing them to more smoothly wield the power of heaven and earth's Dao.
One demon god after another, gods colliding, immeasurable divine energy bursting forth, flesh and blood flying.
Streams of divine light flying out fell upon the earth, forming a magnificent spectacle like a meteor shower.
He saw towering demons whose forms covered the sky and sun being torn apart by the giants' slaughter weapons, their divine bodies ripped apart, yet parts of their divine bodies remained clinging to the giants, inflicting wounds upon them.
He also saw multiple gods joining forces with me, setting up a great formation to encircle and slay one primordial demon god after another whose bodies glowed intensely with Dao fruit light; their divine light gradually worn down, their true forms worn away, ground to death within the formation, or perhaps it was those blood-red, crimson longswords.
Zhang Jian noticed that those blood-red crimson longswords were entwined with endless resentment, within them manifesting countless terrifying true forms of human ghost kings; his eyes sank with displeasure.
These are the god-slaying swords forged by the heavenly court's demons boiling human grievances.
The primordial demon god race possesses mighty physiques, but their eternal will is ordinary; these god-slaying swords, these demon-slaying swords contain human essence and spirit, filled within with immeasurable resentment from heaven and earth; once pierced, they act like a bone-boring maggot, greatly affecting the combat power of the primordial demon god race.
And on the other side, the primordial demon god race has also developed many equally vicious magical artifacts.
Blood-transforming divine blade, demon-slaying sword, demon-hunting god-slaying bow!
Likewise, they are refined using the essence and spirit of humans, or alternatively, of demons.
In the war between the primordial demon god race and the heavenly court's gods, the two hegemons, it is their living beings and tribes that suffer the harm.
Boom—
At this moment, above the azure heavens, seeing the number of slain primordial demon god race powerhouses increasing, the leaders of the primordial demon god race in the void also realized this would not do.
Although the primordial demon god race's powerhouses individually possess advantageous strength, their numbers are at a disadvantage.
The demon race's numbers are too many.
Speaking of reproductive advantage, the primordial demon god race is clearly inferior to the demon race, which can litters of ten, hundreds, or even tens of thousands.
Moreover, the heavenly court still has the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Formation, capable of coordinating to fully unleash the demon race's collective power.
Though ants are many, they may not necessarily be able to bite to death the high-level powerhouses of the primordial demon god race.
But combined with the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Formation, and many other peculiar demon-heaven great formations, they can truly let quantitative change achieve qualitative transformation.
In this regard, the Heavenly Emperor Emperor Jun is worthy of his reputation for wisdom and unparalleled calculation.
Eleven towering, terrifying demon gods at this moment roared in unison, their heads appearing with poles like banners capable of covering the sky and sun; another terrifying demon god also appeared bearing a battle flag; in an instant, twelve poles converged, twelve streams of divine light entered them, and in an instant transformed into a towering giant who treads the earth and crowns the heavens.
He held a giant axe in his hand.
As he came into being, the entire primordial wilderness heaven and earth trembled, as if boundless auspicious clouds and strange colors appeared, scattering the immeasurable calamities lurking in the depths of the azure heavens.
"Ancient Sacred Pangu Heaven!"
Gazing upon this scene, at this moment many powerhouses between heaven and earth could not help but look up toward the azure heavens.
At this moment, Zhang Jian felt that in the depths of the primordial source ocean, countless mighty divine-path powerhouses had formed a divine-path order, which completely collapsed beneath a beam of light; in the depths of the primordial source ocean, a vast divine light flowed forth from within, carrying an aura of supreme supremacy, as if that of the primordial ancestor of the great Dao.
That was a terrifying divine position.
And also the most deeply hidden divine position within the primordial source ocean.
The position of the Celestial King of Primordial Beginning.
Such a position is even stronger than the heavenly Dao position of the primordial wilderness.
Although it is broken, and appears as if it could vanish at any moment.
But the power now bursting forth is truly earth-shattering; this might surpasses everything.
That giant god timely raised the axe in his hand, bringing it down upon the star-reflection formed in the heavens.
Boom—
In the earth-shattering roar, Zhang Jian wisely sealed his own divine spiritual sense at this moment, merely observing with his naked eyes, yet he saw the entire star sea suddenly split open by an axe strike, countless powerful gods and demon gods instantly reduced to dust.
Boom—
Moreover, part of the primordial main star was instantly severed by the axe-light.
That was the primordial main star, not the newly born main star of the primordial era.
The power of such a main star is extraordinarily magnificent, its rank far above that of the Dao Lord rank; yet beneath this giant axe, it could not withstand even an instant, and in a flash was chopped to extinction by the axe.
And after these primordial master stars were shattered by a single axe blow, part of the primordial master stars in the heavens shattered one after another, turning into fragments that rained down upon the earth.
The number of fallen heavenly deities within was even greater.
Endless blood mist burst forth from where the axe light fell upon the heavens.
The body of the Heavenly King Pangu summoned by the twelve divine banners only lasted for a single strike before dissipating.
The eleven demon gods scattered, immediately summoning many demon gods on earth to charge toward the broken Zhoutian Star Dou Great Array.
This is the final moment of the decisive battle!
As the scattered Zhoutian Star Dou Great Array dispersed, heavenly emperors and sovereigns emerged from within, beginning to surround and slaughter the many ancient demon god leaders.
Many hidden trump cards in the darkness were also unleashed one after another.
Among them, the radiance of innate spiritual treasures shone like the sun and moon.
But as the Zhoutian Star Dou Great Array shattered, many heavenly deities appeared weak before the eleven leaders of the ancient demon god clan, even if they possessed innate spiritual treasures, they were powerless against the slaughter of the ten terrifying demon gods.
After some heavenly emperors were slain, some heavenly sovereigns resolved to fight to the death, only to see a towering sovereign emerge from within, his body stained with blood, already severely wounded.
Yet he held several spiritual treasures in his hand that turned into flowing light, enveloping one of the ancient demon god clan's leaders, accompanied by the self-detonation of several acquired spiritual treasures, instantly inflicting great harm upon that leader, blowing a huge hole in his radiant aura.
At the same time, seeing other ancient demon god clan powerhouses realizing the situation was unfavorable and charging over, he directly manifested his vast and sacred true form, his form flashing to envelop that leader of the ancient demon god clan, then a magnificent and unparalleled divine technique of the Great Dao burst forth from within, yet it directly submerged both of their sacred forms within it.
The splendid light and flame flowed forth from above the heavens, carrying the vast will of heaven and earth mourning together.
This self-destruction, this mutual annihilation, was like opening a magic box.
Deep in the heavenly realm, seeing they were doomed to fall to the enemy, part of the heavenly emperors and sovereigns chose this way to take some of the ancient demon god clan's powerhouses with them.
And seeing their comrades fall by this near-mutual-annihilation method, the leaders of the ancient demon god clan were likewise enraged.
……
On the earth, seeing the various conflicts enter a white-hot state, Zhang Jian's expression was solemn, yet he was also preparing to actively intervene.
He knew that for such a calamity, active intervention was far better than passive endurance.
Once passively encountering a killing tribulation, the situation would deteriorate in an instant.
At this moment, Zhang Jian saw that part of the demon tribe wielding the Slaughter God Sword and the Exterminate God Sword, after enduring a brutal massacre, had developed fear and fled the heavenly court, whereupon he immediately used a secret method to pursue them.
This was the perfect opportunity to beat a dog in the water.
Moreover, these demon tribe members' possessions were not insignificant.
Incidentally, he could also seize the Slaughter God Sword and the Exterminate God Sword to rescue the human souls trapped within.
Liberating such souls would greatly aid the First-Level Eternal Dao Incantation of the Qinglian Purification of Souls.
The Qinglian Purification of Souls Incantation, having reached the Eternal level, had gradually moved beyond the gate of relieving suffering, gradually evolving into a unique and formidable method belonging solely to Zhang Jian; for such an opportunity, Zhang Jian would naturally not relinquish it.
At this moment, strengthening even a part of his own strength would be greatly beneficial for overcoming the Void Tribulation.
His form flickered, and his figure instantly vanished from the earth.
His vast eternal will, following the power of the earth's authority, quickly locked onto a portion of the demon tribe elites charging downward.
Those capable of wielding the Slaughter God Sword and the Exterminate God Sword were by no means weak.
Rather, they were strong beings among the heavenly deities, whether in status or bloodline, they were extraordinarily formidable.
But Zhang Jian, over these tens of thousands of years, having mastered the special earthly creation of the Earth Soul Authority, had certainly not wasted his time!
At this moment, seeing in the distance a terrifying demon tribe Daoist Monarch whose body was entwined with endless demonic aura falling, sensing the opponent's injuries, Zhang Jian silently activated the Mountains and Rivers State Map.
Tribulation Slaughter obscures the mind.
Within the demonic aura, a demon monarch with double wings at this moment felt no change in his surroundings; he had a hooked nose, his eyes gloomy and fierce, domineering, his eyes sweeping around, preparing to find a place to recover from his wounds.
But just then, the mountains before him suddenly twisted, and in an instant evolved into countless great blue lotuses.
Azure treasure lotuses soared into the sky, and moreover, a layer of purifying heaven and earth, allowing the eternal will that makes all things pure to reside within.
This demon monarch was already severely wounded, then suddenly ambushed, yet he could not react in time.
But in an instant he let out a furious roar, his body bursting with demonic aura that exploded outward, transforming into a blade-light that devours heaven and earth, slicing forward and shattering the blue lotus above his head; yet he saw that the blue lotuses appearing around him were now even more numerous.
Furthermore, a chaotic immortal bridge soared through the air, instantly pressing down this golden-winged demon monarch.
This golden-winged demon monarch still dared not show his face, his face bearing an angry expression, yet he could not withstand the suppression of an acquired spiritual treasure.
The azure treasure lotus gradually sealed him.
At the same time, part of the items he had hidden in his wing-space were also produced by Zhang Jian.
As a heavenly demon monarch, one of the three hundred and sixty-five master stars, his worth was indeed substantial, not lacking some heavenly divine objects and earthly treasures that Zhang Jian had never seen before.
But in Zhang Jian's eyes, only that blood-red Slaughter God Sword remained.
That Slaughter God Sword was covered in blood-colored radiance, within it countless wronged souls.
Zhang Jian merely glanced at it, and immediately furrowed his brow.
Among such heretical dharma implements, it seemed as if it were forged from the souls of billions of human beings, the accumulated resentment and sorrow within it seemed substantive, plus a terrifying human fate curse, no wonder it could destroy anything.
Zhang Jian carefully put it away, awaiting a later time to liberate it.
Thereafter, Zhang Jian followed the same method, successively ambushing and slaying several powerful demon tribe star monarchs.
Then he obtained two more Slaughter God Swords.
Having continuously gained benefits, Zhang Jian's enthusiasm rose high.
But soon after, he encountered a tough opponent.
Far off, Zhang Jian saw that with a heaven-shaking, earth-rumbling tremendous roar, a path of intense white light fell from the heavens above, and he noticed that the figure within that white light likewise held another Slaughter God Sword in hand.
And the aura it revealed was abnormally weak.
At that moment, he simply followed the same method, laying down the Mountains and Rivers State Map, luring the enemy into the urn.
But merely that blood-stained white-clad figure, after falling into the forest, merely glanced around, then precisely fixed his gaze upon Zhang Jian, his pupils even penetrating the power of the Mountains and Rivers State Map.
Carrying an incomparably terrifying pressure, the innate spiritual treasure, third-grade innate creation Qinglian, naturally manifested from deep within Zhang Jian's brow, thus blocking this formless impact.
Seeing the innate spiritual treasure manifesting from deep within Zhang Jian's brow, his eyes slightly showed surprise, then a strange smile appeared.
He sneered.
"Child, do you know who I am?"
"Then who are you?!"
At this moment, Zhang Jian's eyes flickered with a trace of calm.
He knew that this time he had probably run into a tough opponent.
But for this scene, he had already anticipated it.
Almost as soon as the words fell, several Eternal Immortal Treasures appeared in his hand in an instant, instantly transforming into blazing suns that shot toward the white-robed demon lord.
These several Eternal Immortal Treasures were directly activated by Zhang Jian to their full value, then suddenly exploded.
Likewise, they were self-detonations.
But this terrifying energy had not yet burst forth when it was seized outright by a plain white hand.
That Eternal Immortal Technique, surpassing even third- and fourth-rank, was actually grasped by his single hand.
At the same time, a cold voice issued from him.
"My true form, Bai Ze!"
