Chapter 1479: Reaping! The Greatest Black Hand!

However, this time, the other party revived far too quickly.

In the span of a few short moments, the space where that enormous black hand had appeared began shattering in sheets and chunks.

Immediately after, a black shadow leapt out with a sudden bound.

The instant that black shadow emerged, the omnipresent light throughout the starry sky was absorbed as though it had encountered a black hole.

Even the starry sky itself dimmed!

The black shadow seemed to disdain speaking. The moment it appeared, it somehow drew out a strangely shaped curved blade from somewhere and slashed it in a single stroke at that massive galaxy.

"Hmph!"

From within the galaxy came that woman's cold snort.

Right after, the sword-light that had gathered the radiance of countless stars reappeared!

Blade met sword; light and darkness collided again and again, and violent energy surged out in every direction, shredding the surrounding space to pieces.

The might of the two of them clashing was truly terrifying!

"Who are you?"

That woman's icy voice rang out across the starry sky.

The black shadow let out a rasping voice: "You may call me Cang Ming."

"Putting on airs to frighten people."

The sword in that woman's hand trembled, and countless razor-sharp sword-qi surged forth, charging at the black shadow.

The black shadow let out a cold laugh, and the curved blade in its hand went on the move once more.

Even though the woman's sword-light was utterly astonishing, it was still blocked by the black shadow's curved blade!

The woman's expression did not change. Seeing the galaxy being caught up in their clash, planet after planet shattered into fragments. She stretched out her left hand toward the starry sky ahead and gave a twist!

"Shift the Stars!"

That woman said softly.

In an instant, the position of her and the black shadow changed from that massive galaxy to a stretch of unfamiliar starry sky.

However, although that woman and the black shadow had changed positions, Lin Yan's time rewind was not affected in the slightest.

"That's not right."

Lin Yan murmured to himself.

If that woman and the black shadow had gone off to fight in another region, Lin Yan's time rewind would be limited by region and it would be impossible for him to still see the scene of their battle!

"It's not that her position changed; it's that the starry sky's position changed."

Lin Yan suddenly gained some insight.

That move of hers did not change her own position.

Even if she could change her own position, it would be hard to change the black shadow's position.

Therefore, her method was actually equivalent to shifting the position of the entire starry sky.

In short, if one treated the starry sky as a backdrop, then her move now was equivalent to shifting the backdrop a little, while her and the black shadow's actual positions had never changed at all.

Shift the Stars!

What moved was the entire world!

"Interesting."

The black shadow let out that rasping voice once more.

The long sword in the woman's hand quivered, and the aura around her climbed steadily.

"This Palace has stood upon the pinnacle of the world for countless years; no one has ever been able to block a single sword of mine. Where do you come from?"

After her attacks were blocked by the black shadow one after another, she asked in a cool, clear voice.

The black shadow laughed in a rasping voice:

"This Sovereign has reaped countless eras. You are nothing more than one among them."

Upon hearing the black shadow's words, the woman's gaze sharpened!

"On the Chaos Stele at the pinnacle of the world, it speaks of you, doesn't it?"

The woman asked intently.

The black shadow said: "Correct. It is precisely This Sovereign."

The woman said no more. Holding her long sword, she sent strike after strike of sword-light at the black shadow.

The battle between the two grew ever more intense.

Nearby planets shattered one after another; a nearby giant star was also caught up in their clash and reduced to dust.

Lin Yan did not skip over the course of the battle, but continued watching it.

Lin Yan watched this war for several years.

The woman and the black shadow fought for a full day and night, battering the surrounding starry sky into fragments!

And the distant starry skies were blinking over and over!

They really were blinking!

Because the woman was constantly drawing on the power of the entire stretch of starry sky to fight!

Seeing this, Lin Yan roughly understood why the starry sky of the Ancient God era was far inferior to the starry sky of this era!

It was because this woman's battle had drawn too much of the power of the stars!

In the Ancient God era, the reason no main-god-level combat power was born for a very long time was very likely related to this as well.
