Chapter 772: Killing Up to the Nine Heavens

"Go!"

Without any hesitation, Qing Tian and the Chaos Four Venerables were so frightened that they turned and fled.

"Can you escape!"

Dugu Baitian sneered; he directly unleashed the Eight Styles of Against Heaven, shattering the caught-off-guard Qing Tian.

Almost simultaneously, the Demon Lord, Chen Zhan, and Ghost Lord joined the siege one after another.

"Dreamy Bubble Shadow!"

"Eons in a Hurry!"

"Netherworld White Bone Dao!"

The siege by the four peak Against Heaven Realm powerhouses left Qing Tian with absolutely no power to resist, not even a chance to reform his physical body.

In the end, Qing Tian was ground to nothing by Dugu Baitian and the other three.

As for the Chaos Four Venerables.

Long before the Chaos King and Qing Tian were ground to nothing, they had already been slaughtered by Chen Nan, Chen Zu, and the others, with absolutely no power to fight back.

However, before Qing Tian died, his spiritual consciousness was saved by the Heavenly Dao.

It could also be said that Qing Tian did not die, because the Heavenly Dao could resurrect him at any time.

In reality, the Heavenly Dao also wanted to save the Chaos King's spiritual consciousness.

But unfortunately, Yin Qi's Slashing Heaven Blade was truly too terrifying; it could not only slash apart the physical body, but also shatter the divine soul, and the Blade Intent was like maggots on rotting bones, difficult to clear away.

In reality, Yin Qi could also unleash the "Immeasurable Heaven-Swallowing Art" to devour the Chaos King and cultivate a king for himself.

But he did not want the "Immeasurable Heaven-Swallowing Art" to be exposed.

Just like in the past, he always secretly suppressed people into his Inner Heaven and Earth before unleashing the "Immeasurable Heaven-Swallowing Art," all to avoid being discovered by the Heavenly Dao and thereby arousing its vigilance.

The Demon Lord swept across with the Taiji Divine Demon Diagram, collecting all the residual souls and essence left behind after the deaths of Qing Tian, the Chaos King, and others.

He said loudly: "Everyone, all hidden dangers have been cleared; we can finally step onto the Path of Heaven-Slaying without any scruples. Comrades, follow me to kill the Heavenly Dao!"

"Kill!"

The crowd shouted one after another.

Subsequently, the army of tens of millions of Gods and Demons, under the leadership of Yin Qi and the others, charged into the God and Demon Map and stepped onto the Tongtian Lu.

………

Behind the Tongtian Lu was an endless void.

In this void, there were nine continents floating, one higher than the other; this was precisely Jiu Chong Tian.

On the first heaven, the sounds of killing shook the sky.

This was the first batch of Heaven-Slayers, who were currently battling the army of Heaven Beasts.

Yin Qi saw that on the continent, there were dense armies of Heaven Beasts everywhere, numbering in the hundreds of thousands.

Most of the Heaven Beasts were of God Emperor-level combat power.

Only a few hundred had reached the Heavenly Tier.

However, although the Heaven Beasts had strong combat power, they were ultimately just war Puppetry created by the Heavenly Dao; they had Heavenly Tier power in name only, but could not exert true Heavenly Tier combat power.

Every Heaven-Slayer had fought their way out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

When it came to combat experience, how could the Heaven Beasts compare?

"Haha, fellow comrades, kill!"

The second batch of Taigu Gods laughed loudly and charged onto the continent; wherever they passed, the army of Heaven Beasts began to collapse.

Yin Qi held the Slashing Heaven Blade, and with one slash, over a dozen Heavenly Tier Heaven Beasts were slaughtered, while other Heaven Beasts exploded in swathes, turning into countless flesh and blood, with Blood Qi soaring into the sky.

The Demon Lord, Dugu Baitian, Chen Zhan, and Ghost Lord also joined the fray one after another.

Those like Chen Nan, who were slower to act, didn't even have a chance to kill the enemy.

Very quickly, the Heaven Beasts on the first heaven were cleaned out.

"Let's go, we are going to the second heaven!"

The Demon Lord soared into the sky.

……

The second heaven was filled with drifting clouds and mist, vast and boundless for tens of millions of miles.

In the violent gale, all the clouds and mist were blown away, and the earth trembled; in front, an endless sea of giants charged like a tsunami, as if the sky were collapsing and the earth rending.

These giants were also created by the Heavenly Dao.

Compared to the Heaven Beasts that only knew how to kill, they possessed intelligence no less than that of ordinary people.

Each one was incomparably powerful and had mastered various divine abilities and unique arts.

Yin Qi led the charge, the Slashing Heaven Blade sweeping across, and the giants fell in swathes like wheat.

Whether they were God Emperor-level or Heavenly Tier-level.

The Demon Lord and the others also joined the fray, and very quickly slaughtered all the giants on the second heaven.

The ten million Gods and Demons brought along were all reduced to cleaners. They were responsible for collecting all the corpses of the giants so that they could replenish the power of the strong for the upcoming battles.

The third heaven……

The fourth heaven……

It was not until they attacked the fifth heaven that a massive will began to rapidly awaken above the nine heavens.

It was so vast that it could not be described in words; it seemed that a slight movement could destroy the entire world, giving people an incomparably powerful sense of oppression, making one feel as if their soul were trembling.

Yin Qi's eyes were cold and stern as he looked up at the sky: "The Heavenly Dao, is it awakening?"

The Demon Lord shook his head in a deep voice: "Not yet. In reality, It has always been in a deep sleep, and only a portion of its subconscious is paying attention to this world. To it, we are like fleas on its body, and it cannot be bothered to pay us any mind."

"Fleas!"

Yin Qi narrowed his eyes slightly, a cold light flickering within them.

Although this adjective was very unpleasant, it was truly apt.

Please... you.... add to collection 6... 9... the book....!

Because the Heavenly Dao was truly too strong; this strength was not only in terms of realm, but even more so in terms of sheer scale.

According to Yin Qi's estimation, the realm of the Heavenly Dao was at least Against Heaven Stage Peak, and it might even have half a foot about to break through.

Looking at it, this realm seemed to be about the same as his own.

But in reality, given the scale of the Heavenly Dao, it was at least a thousand times greater than his.

Even with the same realm, the Heavenly Dao could still look down upon all the powerhouses in the world, regarding them as mere fleas.

"Since that is the case, then let us let It know that when there are enough fleas, they can also kill."

"Kill!"

Yin Qi shouted sharply, taking the lead to strike.

Shouts of killing rose from all sides, and blood-red light soared into the sky everywhere.

Very quickly, the fifth Heaven was also leveled, and the crowd charged into the sixth Heaven.

……

The sixth Heaven.

The sky was azure, and white clouds drifted leisurely.

High above in the sky, fifteen enormous figures stood in the air, blocking the path in front of the crowd.

Imperial Heaven, Qing, Azure Heaven, Yellow Heaven, Netherworld Heaven, and others—those Heavens that had once fallen had all been resurrected with the support of the Heavenly Dao.

Among them, ten were in the Against Heaven Realm.

It seemed that the Heavenly Dao had truly paid a heavy price to intercept them.

Ten in the Against Heaven Realm and five at the Heavenly Tier Peak Stage; even with the scale of the Heavenly Dao, resurrecting them required a great cost.

"Imperial Heaven! Qing!"

The crowd exclaimed one after another, their expressions grave.

"Hehe."

A cold, chilling laugh came from Imperial Heaven's mouth: "I truly did not expect that I could return to this world. Speaking of which, I must thank you all. Therefore, I have decided to bestow death upon you."

"Boastful words. I could kill you once before, and I can kill you a second time."

Yin Qi snorted coldly.

He did not waste any more words, and, lifting the Slashing Heaven Blade, he charged toward Imperial Heaven to kill.

"One Blade Opens Heaven!"

Yin Qi started with his strongest killing move; under this one blade, all things in heaven and earth turned into nothingness, and even the laws could not escape.

Imperial Heaven was very strong, but he was only about the same as the Chaos King.

The blade light was too fast, exceeding the speed of light and exceeding human thought.

Before Imperial Heaven had time to dodge, he was split in half, and countless purple-gold blood poured down from the sky.

"Qing, I have come to kill you!"

Dugu Baitian soared into the sky, charging toward Qing.

"Netherworld Heaven, I could kill you once back then, and today I can kill you a second time!"

Chen Zu transformed into a ten-thousand-foot-tall Demon King and lunged at Netherworld Heaven.

The Demon Lord, Chen Zhan, Ghost Lord, Chen Nan, and others also struck one after another, each selecting an opponent.

Dugu Xiaoxuan, Situ Mingyue, and the other three who were quasi-Against Heaven Tier charged toward the other five Heavens; as for the others, led by the Space-Time Great God, Chu Xiangyu, and Hei Qi, they charged toward the countless Heaven Beasts of the sixth Heaven.

Kill! Kill!

The shouts of killing shook the sky; every moment someone fell, yet no one retreated.

This battle.

Either succeed or die trying. (End of chapter)
