Chapter 929: The Transcendent's Great Battle

Seeing that the Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ had appeared, An Jiutian Xie was not startled but delighted.

He stood with his hands behind his back in the Void, the swirling Ominous Black Tide around him undulating like a living thing; a cold smile tugged at his gaunt face as he said lightly:

"Heh heh, Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ, the great battle between us last time never ended; today you are once again impatiently coming to meet death?"

It turned out that the Ominous Transcendent who previously manifested in the Wugui Realm to block the Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ and prevent him from reaching Ye Wuque was none other than this An Jiutian Xie!

That day the two clashed for thousands of rounds, ending only when An Jiutian Xie withdrew, the outcome still undecided.

Now meeting again, fresh and old grudges surged, and murderous intent boiled in both their eyes.

The Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ stood proudly in the Void, his golden dragon robe rustling, and faint shadows of ten thousand dragons roaring behind him.

He kept the entire second defensive line firmly behind him, the Imperial Dragon Halberd in his hand angled toward the ground, its tip spitting golden dragon light tens of thousands of zhang long, his gaze indifferent as he stared at An Jiutian Xie, his voice booming like a bell:

"Today, we continue the battle from over a hundred years ago!"

"And put an end to your sins that have plagued the Nine Heavens!"

"Boom—!!!"

Before the words finished, a towering Dragon Might suddenly erupted from the Imperial Dragon Halberd!

A golden pillar of Dragon Might shot straight into the heavens, tearing a massive rift through the heavy Ominous Black Clouds overhead.

Within the pillar, countless ancient dragon-shaped runes floated and sank, each containing terrifying power that could shatter stars and sever causality, enough to sweep across the Zhutian Wanjie, past, present, and future!

"The great halberd cleaves causality across the sky, causing all divine spirits of eternity to wither silently!"

Accompanied by a roar that shook the universe, the Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ's form shifted, turning into a golden streak that pierced heaven and earth, boldly charging at An Jiutian Xie!

The Imperial Dragon Halberd slashed out from his hand, a golden dragon illusion coiled around its shaft roaring; as it struck down, it split the very space-time ahead cleanly in two!

Chaotic time-space turbulence surged wildly to both sides, revealing a void of pure Chaos deep within.

Where the halberd's light passed, all laws, order, and causality were shattered and erased, leaving only pure destruction and tyranny.

"Well met!"

An Jiutian Xie let out a cold laugh, neither flashing nor evading.

He thrust out his right hand abruptly, fingers forming a claw, the dense Ominous Power converging wildly in his palm, instantly shaping into a black giant claw spanning ten thousand li.

Upon the claw, countless Unfortunate Runes writhed and flashed, exuding an evil aura that corroded all things and doomed sentient beings.

"An Tian Xie Claw·All Spirits Sink!"

"Bang—!!!"

The golden and black attacks collided violently in midair!

In an instant, the entire Wugui Space-Time Sea shuddered violently!

Concentric destructive energy shockwaves radiated from the point of impact, spreading wildly in all directions.

Along the way, countless Time-Space Fragments were ground into the tiniest Chaos Particles, innumerable tiny shattered worlds turned to dust in the shockwaves.

The defensive array of the second line below trembled wildly, its formation cracking with countless fissures, and countless cultivators guarding the array spewed blood from their mouths, spitting it outward.

If the array were not built upon a time-space node and supported by countless cultivators, the aftershock of this single strike alone would be enough to reduce the entire line to ash.

The surviving Mysterious Being, Miao Miao Xianzi, and others all let out long sighs of relief, their backs already soaked with cold sweat.

If An Jiutian Xie's strike just now had truly landed, every one of them would have been certain death!

There was no chance of survival.

The second line would collapse instantly, and the endless Ominous Army, led by An Jiutian Xie, would surge straight from the No Return Path into the Zhutian Wanjie!

At that moment, the true apocalypse would descend.

"It is… the Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ! Lord Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ saved us, rescued the second line!"

Someone stared at the sweeping golden figure across the sky, their voice trembling as they shouted.

Gradually, more and more people saw the magnificent figure, its overwhelming Dragon Might battling An Jiutian Xie, exuding boundless tyranny.

In an instant, all beings of the second line displayed infinite awe and excitement.

This is the Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ!

A legend whose name reverberates across Nine Heavens Ten Earths and the Zhutian Wanjie!

Eons ago, the Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ wielded the Great Dragon Halberd, waged war on the No Return Path, pushing back the Inauspicious Clan, fighting his way to the deepest part of the World-Ending Calamity, forging an endlessly glorious record!

With his own might alone, he stubbornly blocked the main force of that World-Ending Calamity, securing a breathing chance for the myriad races of the heavens, earning an indescribable great achievement and monumental feat for the Zhutian Wanjie!

Later, the Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ apparently set out to seek the ultimate secret deep within the No Return Path, and never returned.

Many beings believed the Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ had completely fallen into the long river of history.

Unexpectedly, after endless ages, the Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ not only had not fallen, but advanced further, becoming a true Transcendent!

And at the critical moment when the second line was about to collapse and all beings faced life-and-death peril, he reappeared across the sky, descending upon this place!

"Present… my lord!!"

The Undead War God was already so moved his eyes were wet; with a "thud" he dropped to one knee, bowing respectfully toward the Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ.

He was originally the First War God of the War God Heavenly Hall, whose Dao lineage stemmed from the War Generals beneath the Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ.

Back then, before he had broken through to Supreme, he was fortunate enough to glimpse the Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ on an ancient battlefield; that invincible figure became the belief he pursued all his life.

Later, upon hearing of the Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ's fall, he secluded himself for ten thousand years, grief overwhelming.

He never imagined he would meet again today, and under such dire circumstances.

The Undead War God's chest heaved violently, his battle spirit and reverence intertwining, yearning to rush forward at once to follow his lord and fight the Ominous.

At this moment, while the two great Transcendents clashed in the high skies, the Ominous Faction's ground forces had already pressed up to the front of the defense line.

Countless Ominous Creatures surged like a black tide, covering the sky and sun, endless as far as the eye could see.

Leading them were several Ominous Commanders of HalfStepTranscendenceRank, radiating a terrifying aura that made hearts race; wherever they passed, time-space crackled as the Ominous Power corroded it.

"Prepare to meet the enemy!"

The Mysterious Being snapped to attention, his hoarse voice echoing across the entire line, bearing unquestionable resolve.

Now is not the time for sentiment or excitement; holding the line and blocking the ground assault is the greatest support for the Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ.

"Undead War God, you command the left‑wing brigade, intercept the enemy's left wing!"

"First Yu Lord, you lead the Great Thousand Divine Universe Dark Cultivators to guard the central army array!"

"Ning Wushuang, Miao Miao Xianzi, the two of you jointly guard the right wing, using Space Power and Alchemical Dao together to block the enemy's elite!"

"Yin Yang Great Emperor, Huang Lao, you both command the Yin‑Yang Grand Array, ready to support any location at any time!"

Orders were dispatched rapidly, and the previously somewhat chaotic front line quickly steadied.

Mysterious Being, Undead War God, Ning Wushuang, Huang Lao, Yin Yang Great Emperor, First Yu Lord and the rest of the beings rose into the air, their auras erupting, and they slayed the charging Bane Creatures!

"Kill!!!"

The earth‑shaking battle cry instantly rang throughout the Wugui Space‑Time Sea.

Blade flashes and sword shadows, spells flew wildly, and golden Blood Qi clashed madly in the air with black Ominous Power.

Miao Miao Xianzi had already retreated to one of the North Dipper Seven Stars' space‑time nodes, and as her jade hand fluttered, countless pill bottles flew out; Healing Pills, Power‑Boosting Pills, and Evil‑Breaking Pills rained onto the battlefield like drops, while her divine sense locked onto the remaining six nodes, ready to join the other six people in forming the North Dipper Seven Stars Grand Array.

Ning Wushuang stood beside her, Space Power flowing at his fingertips; any Bane Creature that broke through the line and approached would be instantly sliced into pieces.

The two coordinated seamlessly, defending the right wing as solid as a golden fortress.

Undead War God wielded a war spear, leading the charge at the front, and the iron‑blooded war will of the War God Heavenly Hall was displayed on him to the fullest.

Each thrust of the spear caused a Bane Creature to fall, the spear tip stained with blood, the war spirit raging.

The ground battlefield fell into a brutal stalemate, with casualties on both sides rising rapidly.

But everyone knew that the true determinant of the battle's outcome was the Transcendent‑level war high above.

If the Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ wins, the line can be held; if the Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ loses, no one can escape death.

In the high sky, the clash grew ever more intense.

The Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ's Imperial Dragon Halberd was fierce and domineering, each strike bearing the might of Open Heaven and Split Earth, golden dragon phantoms darted across, continuously tearing and vaporizing Ominous Power.

Dark Nine Heavens Evil's techniques were sinister and bizarre, claw shadows dense, Ominous Power like a festering wound on bone, constantly corroding the Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ's protective dragon light.

Both were true Transcendents; every move tugged at the laws of heaven and earth, and each collision could shatter vast stretches of space.

The fight raged from daylight to dusk, and from dusk to dawn; the chaotic space of the Wugui Space‑Time Sea was torn to fragments, unable to recover for a long time.

After hundreds of rounds, the two still split the outcome evenly, neither gaining an absolute advantage.

The Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ's halberd technique grew smoother, the Imperial Dragon Halberd weaving a dense, impenetrable net of golden spear light that covered heaven and earth, trapping Dark Nine Heavens Evil within.

"Dark Nine Heavens Evil, is this all the skill you have?"

The Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ let out a cold snort, tipped the halberd, and a dragon‑shaped qi burst tore the void, aiming straight for Dark Nine Heavens Evil's forehead.

Dark Nine Heavens Evil sidestepped, his robe brushed by the dragon qi, instantly pierced with a huge hole, the edges scorched black by the dragon qi.

A trace of sinister malice flashed in his eyes, yet he was not angry, and instead suddenly laughed:

"Hùn Dùn Lóng Zhǔ, do you really think that today only I have come?"
