Chapter 181
"Condense!"
A low shout exploded across the horizon. Just as the five giant spheres were about to strike the node, visible ripples spread through the air, and surging magic power fluctuations swept over like a tide.
The giant spheres suddenly froze in midair, two forces confronting each other in the void. The gravitational field and this sudden magic power collided, emitting an ear-splitting hum.
Madara's gaze suddenly turned toward the direction of the sound, and he saw two figures appear out of nowhere not far away.
The old man walking in front wore a gray robe that flapped in the wind. He had no magic power fluctuations on him, yet he seemed like an invisible mountain, emitting an oppressive feeling that made one suffocate.
Beside him, Ailin stood holding a magic wand. Her black cloak moved without wind, and her crimson long hair fluttered in the wind like leaping flames.
Oujiyasi·Aosite stood in the high sky, his gaze sweeping over the royal capital below that had become a huge basin, his voice carrying a hint of heaviness: "In such a short time while Ailin and I went to the Fioré Kingdom to negotiate, something like this actually happened."
Madara Uchiha frowned slightly, a hint of solemnity flashing in his eyes: "The Imperial Twin Walls, actually returning at this critical moment."
At this moment, Oujiyasi·Aosite looked at Madara Uchiha, his voice carrying a hint of regret: "To possess such power at such a young age is truly an astonishing talent. If I had met you before, I would definitely personally guide you on how to better use this power."
"But." Oujiyasi·Aosite's voice suddenly turned cold, surging magic power swirling around him, the air freezing for a moment: "You have gone too far down the evil path. Countless innocent lives have perished by your hands; such sins are unforgivable."
"Interesting." Madara curled his lips into a cold smile, "Spare me the preaching. Since you want to stop me, then try and see if you can." At this moment, surging chakra surged within his body again.
"If we fight here," Ailin suddenly spoke, her slender fingers lightly stroking her magic wand, a cold light flashing in her eyes, "I'm afraid even the last trace of this country will disappear."
The magic wand in her hand suddenly rose, magic power surging around her: "World Reconstruction Magic, Universe One!"
The sky suddenly burst into dazzling light, a huge red magic circle unfolding like a canopy, covering the entire continent.
The earth began to emit dazzling light, space twisting layer by layer like a shattered mirror. When the light faded, the surrounding scenery had changed. The vast sea stretched to the horizon, the salty sea breeze hit their faces, and huge waves crashed endlessly.
"This is..." Madara looked around, the outline of the continent faintly visible in the distance. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Space transfer magic? Interesting."
Ailin had already risen into the air by this time, looking down at Madara from above. Magic power surged on her wand: "This will be your final battlefield."
Madara looked at the two before him, suddenly chuckling lightly, his laugh carrying a hint of disdain: "Final battlefield? You seem to have misunderstood something."
His voice suddenly turned cold, surging chakra exploding, the sea water boiling and surging under this power: "This sea will become your burial ground!"
"Limbo: Susanoo!"
Madara's violent shout exploded over the sea surface, surging chakra sweeping out, the sea water boiling and surging under this power.
Four huge figures gradually solidified on the sea surface, blue chakra armor emitting a heart-palpitating light. The next second, four Susanoo left afterimages on the sea surface, shooting toward the two people.
Clang! Four long blades slashed simultaneously, the blades entwined with violent shock power, raising countless visible air ripples.
Boom—! Under this terrifying power, the sea water instantly parted, revealing the pitch-black deep seabed. Creatures in the trench all turned belly-up under this power, fleeing everywhere with the sea water.
Oujiyasi·Aosite hovered in the air, his gray robe flapping in the violent airflow. His gaze fell on the four long blades slashing toward him, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.
Then, his right hand slowly raised, five fingers slightly exerting force, making a crushing motion.
"Bind."
Before his voice fell, the sea water suddenly surged upward. Amidst the rumbling water sounds, dozens of water dragons roared out from the deep sea, each dozens of meters in diameter, with ferocious scales and claws, precisely entangling the four Susanoo like living things.
Crack! Crack! Clear shattering sounds rose and fell, spiderweb-like cracks appearing on the surface of the deep blue chakra armor, constantly spreading outward.
"What?" Madara's pupils suddenly shrank. This was the first time someone could so accurately find the location of Limbo and counterattack at the moment of attack.
As if seeing through Madara's confusion, Oujiyasi·Aosite slowly closed his eyes, making a listening posture. His voice was calm: "Because... I can hear the voice in your heart. Every thought of yours, every idea, cannot escape my ears."
Madara's gaze focused, chakra instantly withdrawn, the four Limbo turning into specks of blue light and dissipating in the air. The water dragons lost their target and crashed into the sea with a bang, raising towering huge waves.
At this moment, a scorching magic power fluctuation suddenly erupted.
Ailin's magic wand suddenly rose, magic power surging at the tip of the wand, points of golden light flashing in the air instantly.
"High Rank Addition: Scorching!"
Boom! The air violently twisted, as if being kneaded by an invisible hand. A dark red flame condensed before the wand, expanding to a diameter of a thousand meters in the blink of an eye.
"High Rank Addition: Exploding Dragon Flame!"
Ailin's magic wand waved again, dense golden runes suddenly appearing on the surface of the fireball. As the runes flashed, a violent magic power was injected into the fireball.
"Go!"
With her light shout, the huge fireball suddenly split into dozens of hundred-meter fireballs spinning in the air, dragging scorching tail flames, diving down like a meteor shower.
Madara narrowed his eyes, chakra surging within his body. The Gedo Mazo under his feet suddenly came to life, its arms crossed in front of its body.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Fireballs struck the stone arms one after another, the explosion runes detonating instantly. Air waves swept outward like substance, deafening explosion sounds rising and falling.
The hard stone layer of the Gedo Mazo emitted creaking sounds under the high-temperature burning, its surface turning red, pieces cracking and peeling off.
"A defense of this level is too pathetic." Ailin's voice came through the spreading smoke, the light at the tip of her wand becoming increasingly intense.
Madara frowned slightly. Although he now had endless chakra provided by the Gedo Mazo, he himself was like being nailed in place, his actions greatly restricted.
At this moment, a hint of cold light suddenly flashed in Madara's eyes: "Shinra Tensei!"
Madara suddenly shouted violently, terrifying repulsive force exploding with him as the center, instantly pushing away all the surrounding flames and sea water.
The sea water was lifted by this power, turning into a sky-covering water wall.
Ailin's magic wand in her hand nimbly turned, magic power fluctuations rippling in the air: "High Rank Addition: Heat!"
Instantly, the temperature in the air suddenly soared, rolling white mist rising, turning the area of several li into a sea of fog. In the thick fog, there was no one on the head of the Gedo Mazo; Madara's figure had actually disappeared without anyone knowing when!
"What?" Ailin's pupils suddenly shrank, —a suffocating killing intent erupted from behind.
Ailin suddenly turned around—clang! Five dazzling cold lights tore through the white mist. Madara Uchiha had appeared behind her at some point, five huge Susanoo holding long blades, carrying a heaven-destroying and earth-rending momentum, slashing down from above! The blade edge cut through the sky, shock power surging wildly on the blade, the air was torn, emitting sharp whistling sounds, fine cracks spreading in the void.
At this critical moment, Oujiyasi·Aosite suddenly opened his mouth: "Break!"
Oujiyasi·Aosite slightly raised his right hand, a dazzling light blooming at his fingertip. The light beam was as thin as a hair, yet emitted a heart-palpitating fluctuation, as if it could pierce through everything.
Madara's pupils shrank, a hint of warning flashing in his heart: If he continued to slash down, he would definitely be hit by this light beam!
But a cold light flashed in his eyes, the giant blade of Susanoo still slashed down without hesitation!
Boom—!!! The blade edge heavily struck Ailin, a terrifying shockwave sweeping out. Ailin's figure like a meteor smashed into the sea surface, the sea water instantly parting under this power, revealing a deep canyon. Her body drove straight in until it struck the seabed.
Crack!
The seabed rock layer instantly cracked, countless cracks spreading outward like spiderwebs. The next moment, the seabed within several li suddenly collapsed, countless rocks rolling, stormy waves sweeping up!
Just as the light beam was about to arrive, Madara's eyes focused, his figure instantly swapping positions with Limbo, but that light beam strangely turned in midair, as if it had long seen through his intention, directly striking his chest!
Bang! A terrifying force instantly pierced through his body, and even the Tailed Beast Chakra surging within him was forcibly interrupted by this power.
"What?" Madara spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his figure staggering backward.
"Still don't understand?" Oujiyasi·Aosite slowly lowered his hand. "From the start, you have already lost."
"Can you hear my heart's voice." Madara wiped away the blood at the corner of his mouth, a trace of heaviness flashing in his eyes. This ability is practically equivalent to standing on undefeatable ground; as long as the opponent can keep hearing one's heart's voice, then every single one of one's actions will be predicted.
The next moment, Oujiyasi·Aosite suddenly closed his eyes, as if listening to something: "You are thinking right now that if you launch attacks from different angles simultaneously, even if I can predict them, it is impossible to simultaneously deal with so many offensives."
Madara's pupils shrank slightly. Even this degree of thought can be seen through? But immediately after, a trace of cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Since you can predict my every move." Madara's voice was hoarse and low. "Then let me see how you handle this!"
Click-click-click! Madara's back suddenly split open, revealing densely packed cannon barrels. The next instant, countless shells whistled out, enveloping the entire sky like a violent rainstorm.
Oujiyasi·Aosite's expression was calm; he merely raised his right hand lightly. All the shells seemed to crash into an invisible barrier, detonating instantly. Amid the roaring, the sky turned into a blinding sea of flames.
Madara's figure flashed, returning once more to the top of the Gedo Mazo's head.
"It's useless," Oujiyasi·Aosite's voice came through the firelight. "In the face of an absolute Magic Power gap, any—"
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!
His voice had not yet fallen when the Black Receivers atop the Gedo Mazo's head suddenly surged, piercing into Madara's body like ferocious iron thorns. One, two, three—a full ten-odd Black Receivers sank deep into his spine, fresh blood dripping along the Black Receivers, turning into Blood Mist in midair.
The chakra of the Four-Tails, Seven-Tails, Two-Tails, and Nine-Tails surged into Madara's body like a torrent, and blood-red chakra began to emanate from Madara's body surface.
"Enough!"
The next instant, Madara fiercely grabbed the Black Receivers inside his body, muscles bulging, forcibly pulling the Black Receivers out from within his body.
Fresh blood gushed out from behind him, but Madara's eyes erupted with an unprecedentedly fierce light.
"Limbo: True Several Thousand Hands!"
Boom—!
Five figures formed Hand Seals simultaneously, vast chakra erupting on the sea surface. In an instant, countless thick tree trunks burst from the seabed through the water, roots intertwining, continuously extending and weaving in the void.
The entire world seemed to tremble at this moment. The Deep Sea boiled and surged, the Sea Water pushed aside as if by some invisible force, revealing the pitch-black seabed.
Five colossal Thousand-Armed Buddha statues rose from the seabed, each standing several kilometers tall; the Sea Water could only submerge up to the Great Buddhas' feet. Subsequently, thousands of arms extended upward from their backs, layer upon layer, covering the sky and blocking out the sun. The sky was shrouded by these gigantic arms, casting vast Shadows.
"Partial Susanoo!" Uchiha Madara roared in anger.
Blue chakra surged forth like a tide, instantly covering the surface of the Thousand-Armed Great Buddhas. Susanoo condensed into heavy armor, armoring the Great Buddhas to the utmost.
Finally, a ferocious Karasu-Tengu mask emerged on the Buddha statue's face; blood-red dual eyes flickered with awe-inspiring light. The mask was ferocious and terrifying, forming a stark contrast with the Buddha statue's solemn aura.
At this time, five Thousand-Armed Buddha statues clad in blue armor stood upon the vast Sea, like five great mountains suddenly risen, surrounding Oujiyasi·Aosite and Ailin completely.
Before such Colossi, the two figures appeared as tiny as ants.
Madara stood atop the head of the frontmost Buddha statue, looking down from on high at the surrounded Oujiyasi·Aosite. His Long Hair fluttered in the wild wind, his eyes flashing with cold light: "Let me see if you can block this!"
"Boom!"
Five thousand arms raised simultaneously; Vibration Power condensed in every Palm, forming giant Light Spheres. The surrounding air instantly began to emit a continuous, teeth-aching hum.
Oujiyasi·Aosite's robes fluttered violently in the savage airflow; even that eternally calm face of his now showed a trace of gravity.
"I see." Oujiyasi·Aosite murmured to himself, raising his head to gaze at the sky-covering Thousand-Armed Buddha statues. "So this is your trump card? It seems I underestimated you."
At This Moment, a heaven-shaking Dragon Chant suddenly came from the Deep Sea! Ailin's figure broke through the water, suspending in midair. Her Long Hair moved without wind, golden pupils flashing with dangerous light: "Truly astonishing power, but it's also time for you to witness my true form."
Her spine suddenly arched; the Black Cloak shattered inch by inch under the Magic Power impact. Fine red patterns emerged on her skin surface, flowing like Magma; in the blink of an eye they turned into pieces of dragon scales.
Boom! Magic Power surged, Air Waves rolled. In a flash, Ailin's slender human form had vanished completely. In its place was a colossal giant dragon.
The giant dragon's body was hundreds of meters long; deep red dragon scales gleamed with a metal-like Cold Light under the Sunlight.
