Chapter 80: Black Emperor, Perished!
The appearance of nine ultimate-power figures caused countless ten-thousand-year soul beasts to become restless, an unparalleled sense of danger welling up in their hearts.
If not for the Beast God and the many hundred-thousand-year soul beasts present now, they would have turned and fled immediately.
Even so, the soul beasts were terrified, for they could clearly sense that, aside from the Beast God, the remaining seven great hundred-thousand-year soul beasts had auras obviously weaker than these unknown arrivals.
But worse, at this moment not only the ten-thousand-year soul beasts felt fear in their hearts, even the ferocious beasts and the hundred-thousand-year soul beasts all underwent drastic changes in expression.
Especially upon seeing that behind these nine figures followed an endless horde of Abyss monsters, as if boundless, a flash of despair crossed their eyes.
What kind of enemy is this?
Can they really cope with it?
Biji and the Demon Queen simultaneously turned their gazes toward Di Tian in midair, worry showing in their beautiful eyes.
Among those present capable of opposing those nine, only the two in the sky could do so, but two against nine, the odds were slim.
Especially the sky-filling Abyss monsters and the auras of over a hundred Title Douluo made it hard for the soul beasts present to breathe.
Without technological support, the soul beasts' strength compared to the Abyss is unknown how many times weaker.
Bai Yuan, however, appeared relaxed; he looked down at the restless myriad soul beasts and said with a calm smile, "Rest assured, today none of you will die."
The soul beasts hearing this were all somewhat stunned.
From afar came a truly icy voice: "Arrogant, just wait and see how this Emperor will kick your head like a ball."
The speaker appeared no different from a human woman, her whole body covered in black leather attire, with two black wings spread behind her.
Overall, she was extremely beautiful, her black hair spreading like a disk behind her head, her eyes full of piercing chill.
The ruler of the Ninth Layer of the Abyss, the Black Emperor!
Bai Yuan gave a contemptuous smile and said, "You? You're not even worthy."
The Black Emperor's eyes turned cold; just as she was about to charge forth and do battle with Bai Yuan, a middle-aged man identical to a human reached out and blocked her.
Instantly, the Black Emperor suppressed her anger, and the countless Abyss monsters on the ground and in the sky halted with that motion.
"Let Bai Yuan come out and meet me." The middle-aged man said, hands behind his back, eyes devoid of any ripple.
Bai Yuan said lightly, "I am Bai Yuan."
On the surface, Bai Yuan at least had to show that he did not know the Abyss sovereigns and was unaware this was the scheme of the Asura God.
The middle-aged man glanced at Bai Yuan with narrowed eyes, then sneered, "So you're the one the God King has taken note of? No wonder you're so arrogant."
Bai Yuan's expression remained indifferent as he said, "Arrogant? I don't see it that way, for I believe I have the strength to wipe you all out."
"Heh heh!" Ling Di chuckled.
However, Bai Yuan paid no heed; he stood still upon the crimson long sword, alone, flying unhurriedly toward the many sovereigns of the Abyss.
Ling Di saw his smile freeze, his eyes instinctively narrowing, and he stared intently at the approaching Bai Yuan with utmost vigilance.
As the sole Abyss sovereign whose spiritual power had attained godhood, as Bai Yuan drew near, a sudden unease welled up in its heart.
This made Ling Di feel uneasy inside.
"Black Emperor, deal with him." Ling Di said in a low voice.
Beside her, the Black Emperor, who had been suppressing her anger, instantly brightened; her black wings beat, whipping up a gale, and she shot forth like a cannonball.
This was not recklessness on the Black Emperor's part, but confidence in her own strength, for as a Quasi-God, even if her power fell short of the preceding eight.
But if the Black Emperor wished to retreat, only Ling Di, whose divine sense had become godlike, could stop her; and even if stopped, she could not be resolved in a short while.
Therefore the Black Emperor acted without restraint, for even if she could not defeat Bai Yuan alone, she had plenty of strong allies behind her.
Yet facing the oncoming Black Emperor, Bai Yuan could not help but sigh inwardly, and the crimson long sword fell into his hand.
In an instant, Bai Yuan brandished the Dragon Scale Sword, which then instantly shattered into countless particles.
Yet Bai Yuan still gripped tightly a crimson long sword wholly condensed from ultimate killing intent!
This is the ultimate killing intent that invaded Gu Yue Na's body and cannot be erased, a fragment of the God King's power.
The crimson long sword fell.
At this moment, in the direction of Bai Yuan's sword swing, every Abyss sovereign felt an indescribable fear rise in their hearts.
Even against such a sword, not even Ling Di or Lie Di, Abyss sovereigns who had already attained one aspect of godhood, could turn and flee.
For this sword had reached god-level!
Moreover, most terrifyingly, this sword seemed to contain a trace of the God King's power; that ultimate killing intent left no room for thoughts of resistance.
Yet the Black Emperor facing this sword had no chance to dodge, or rather, as Bai Yuan's sword fell, that ultimate killing intent surged forcefully into her body, plunging the Black Emperor into a dazed state.
The crimson sword light dyed half the horizon red; the ultimate killing intent made all spirits of the world tremble, and even this heaven and earth shook.
The crimson long sword traced a perfect arc.
The Quasi-God-level Black Emperor, with no room to resist, was blasted to fragments; yet this crimson sword light, its might undiminished, after slaying the Black Emperor, surged straight toward the many Abyss sovereigns.
But unfortunately, being too far away, many sovereigns were not shaken by the Asura killing intent, and in an instant escaped the range of the sword qi.
However, those sky-filling Abyss monsters were not so fortunate; beneath the crimson sword light they turned to flying ash, becoming the purest life energy.
One sword fell, and the world fell into dead silence; neither Abyss monsters nor soul beasts made a sound.
"Di Tian!" Bai Yuan suddenly shouted.
This voice seemed to awaken the entire world.
"Received!" Di Tian replied, tossing his silver dragon spear toward Bai Yuan.
Without hesitation, Bai Yuan gripped the silver dragon spear and thrust it into the Black Emperor's corpse, aiming for the plane core she sought to flee back to the Abyss.
Upon the spear's penetration, the silver dragon spear's terrifying devouring power erupted fully; then, under Gu Yue Na's covert control, even the Abyss could not forcibly seize the plane core.
An unparalleled surge of majestic life energy flowed through the silver dragon spear, then via spatial power into Gu Yue Na's body.
The remaining Abyss sovereigns stared agape.
They understood, someone was seizing the Abyss's power!
That is the plane core of the Ninth Layer of the Abyss; if the Abyss loses this core, its foundations will surely be shaken.
"Up! Take back the planar core!" Ling Di roared.
The mid-abyss sovereign regained his composure, preparing to strike again.
At this moment, fear had vanished from their hearts, after all, just now anyone with a bit of discernment could see that Bai Yuan could unleash such a terrifying sword.
It was entirely because of that sword.
But now, the sword has been used up……
