Chapter 93: Asura and Destruction
Surging red light, endless killing aura, a shocking blood rainbow, as if splitting heaven and earth, cleaved the pitch-black abyss in two.
Revealing the vast, pitch-black expanse outside, yet studded with countless stars, making the deep space magnificently splendid.
This place is no longer the outer space of Dou Luo Star, but a location separated by an unknown number of light-years, even several, or even beyond a vast star system.
With the fall of the Abyss Holy Lord and the collapse of the Abyss Plane, Bai Yuan felt that the spatial passageway behind him, forcibly opened by planar power, was also on the brink of collapse.
If this spatial passageway collapses, Bai Yuan will lose the power of the Five Elements Formation and perish in the harsh environment of cosmic space.
In an instant, Bai Yuan mobilized the power of the entire Dou Luo Star via the Five Elements Formation, forcibly stabilizing the passageway so that it continued to exist even after the Abyss Plane collapsed.
Subsequently, Bai Yuan instinctively looked up and saw a towering giant, kilometers in length, slowly approaching.
Although he was immensely tall, within the vast starry sky he still appeared incredibly tiny, like a red dot.
Yet even so, each step the giant took made Bai Yuan feel as if the entire starry universe trembled slightly.
Bai Yuan's gaze, bolstered by the Five Elements Formation, converged.
He saw, in the extreme distance, the giant surrounded by dark red light, and saw that its body was clad in armor covered with dark red demonic patterns.
Yet even with the Five Elements Formation's aid, Bai Yuan could not make out the visitor's features, only vaguely seeing a blood-red silhouette.
And after Bai Yuan directed his gaze, the Asura God slowly lowered his head, his blood-red eyes, icy and devoid of any emotion, fixed upon Bai Yuan.
At this moment, Bai Yuan felt his blood as if completely congealed, feeling as though he had fallen into an abyss, a surge of despair rising in his heart.
"Is this the difference between God Transformation Stage and half-step God Transformation?" Bai Yuan thought in shock; even though he clearly knew he had not come in his true body, he could not help but feel fear.
Of course, the main issue is this cultivation level—not something Bai Yuan cultivated himself; if he were truly at half-step God Transformation Stage, he would certainly not be unable to suppress even his bodily instincts and emotions.
"Bai Yuan! As the Plane Lord of the the Douluo Continent, you have continually hidden your existence, failed to report to the Divine Realm, and used divine power to interfere with the world's normal operation—do you know your crime!"
In a vacuum sound cannot travel, and a voice could not instantly cross hundreds of millions of kilometers, yet the Asura God's angry roar echoed in his mind at this moment.
Accompanying the deafening roar was an extreme terror-filled killing intent, surging together into Bai Yuan's mind, as if to crush his intellect and soul.
In an instant, Bai Yuan felt dizzy and swollen-headed, an indescribable sharp pain appearing in his mind, while his eyelids became extremely heavy and his seven orifices began to bleed.
After all, Bai Yuan's true cultivation is only Foundation Establishment mid-stage; once the opponent's power exceeds half-step God Transformation Stage, he can be crushed to death instantly.
However, at this moment Bai Yuan circulated the Yin Yang Creation Classic, employing the spiritual qi of the Five Elements Formation to perform the Yin Yang Escape Technique.
In an instant, Bai Yuan transformed into two invisible streams of black and white qi; when the two streams converged, he resumed his original appearance, yet the abnormality in his mind completely vanished.
"Asura God, are you rushing to attack just to silence witnesses?" Bai Yuan shouted, gazing at the huge blood-colored giant in the vacuum.
The Asura God's gaze was calm and unwavering, showing no emotion as he said: "Silencing witnesses? I am an enforcer of the Divine Realm; everything is done according to the rules."
"As a Plane Lord, you yet interfere with the world's normal operation, support Soul Beasts, slaughter human powerhouses—this is a capital crime!"
As seen by the Divine Realm, Bai Yuan can mobilize the energy of the entire Dou Luo Star, thus he must be the Plane Lord of the Dou Luo Plane, with no other possibility.
The Asura God slowly extended his hand; his entire body's blood-red light condensed into his arm at this moment, then he raised it high from below in a gesture of lifting fire to the heavens.
The four cold words were uttered from the blood-red silhouette's mouth.
"Asura, judgment."
The Asura God's arm descended with the force to split heaven; from Bai Yuan's perspective, he could only see a blinding blood light spreading across the cosmic starry sky, dyeing everything before him blood-red.
But just as Bai Yuan was about to retract the earth foundation of the Five Elements Grand Formation, a purple figure suddenly appeared on the other side.
It was a giant of the same towering stature as the Asura God.
He wore a large purple cloak that covered his head; only two flickering red lights could be vaguely seen within the cloak, but his face remained indistinct.
Yet most striking was the nine-ring purple-black light halo behind the purple figure, and in his hand he grasped a scepter two zhang long, like a bolt of lightning, entirely purple-black, emitting intense purple light and a terrifying destructive will.
The God of Destruction waved the purple scepter, and endless purple-black lightning erupted from the void, carrying the power to destroy heaven and earth, crashing toward the Asura God's sword.
The killing force and destructive force collided in the starry sky; blood-red and purple-black intertwined and annihilated, and the cosmic space, under the clash of these two mighty energies, fell into utter chaos.
The space seemed to turn into a paste, forming a region here that even a Divine King would be unwilling to tread—a shattered land.
This collision produced such a tremendous phenomenon in the universe; if it had occurred on the the Douluo Continent, at the very least the entire continent would have been shattered and sunk.
Putting it even more broadly, the entire the Douluo Continent would be annihilated.
Yet after the two forces intertwined, ultimately the destructive power, bolstered by a supreme divine artifact, gained the upper hand.
It obliterated the sword that had dyed the entire starry sky red, carrying countless purple-black thunderbolts capable of shattering a continent, and surged toward the Asura God.
"Hmph!" the Asura God snorted coldly, indifferent.
He raised a hand and grasped; there appeared a blood-colored giant sword longer than his own body, tearing through space and appearing in his hand.
The Asura God gripped the giant sword with one hand, and with a casual swing, the endless purple lightning split in two, each half flying toward the depths of cosmic space.
"Destruction, what do you mean?" the Asura God said coldly.
The God of Destruction's eyes flashed with red light as he said: "Asura, it should be me asking what you mean. You already killed the Lord of the Abyss Plane—so be it—but why also strike down the Lord of the Dou Luo Plane?"
Not giving the Asura God a chance to reply, Bai Yuan spoke first: "He wants to silence witnesses. Because he secretly colluded with the Abyss, letting the Abyss Holy Lord do his bidding, devouring the the Douluo Continent's life energy."
Bai Yuan was somewhat dazed at this moment; he never expected the God of Destruction to suddenly show up and speak for him, escaping this deadly situation.
However, Bai Yuan was also speechless.
After all, he originally thought he would die after seizing the Heavenly Sage Rift Abyss Halberd; now that he failed to seize it, death is temporarily avoided.
Therefore Bai Yuan intends to cause trouble for the Asura God!
