Chapter 685 - 684: Heavenly Punishment leading to destruction, bestowing extinction
The atmosphere.
Is trembling.
The earth.
Is quaking.
Infinite power of heaven and earth, continuously converging from all directions.
They did not directly enter Li Jing’s body, but rather created a power-space around him like an invisible stand, and slowly lifted him up.
This was different from normally using a forbidden skill to communicate with the world and borrow its astounding power.
At this moment.
The entire power of the Star Nebula Great World was actively converging for Li Jing’s use.
High up in the sky.
The sky visibly darkened at an alarming speed. In an instant, dark clouds covered the sky and stormy winds blew.
"Boom."
Accompanied by rolling thunder, a series of faint, crisscrossing patterns appeared in the gloomy sky, either intersecting, parallel or lone, emerging therein.
This.
Was the manifestation of countless paths.
At this moment, lifted into the sky by the endless power of the world, Li Jing opened his eyes.
"Sizzle."
A light sound, a black electric arc flashed in the bottom of his eyes.
Forthwith.
The already gloomy sky turned into endless darkness, so dark that you couldn’t see your hand in front of your face.
An oppressive air accompanied it, filling the space between heaven and earth.
Li Jing silently raised his hand, and snapped his fingers.
"Click."
The next second.
Time, completely stood still.
The guttering yellow earth and debris hanging high in the sky due to the hurricane were frozen in place.
The next second.
Time began to flow again.
Right at this moment.
A thin black bolt of lightning tore through the air, boldly carving out its place in the completely darkened world.
Sound of thunder?
No.
The black bolt of lightning silently fell to the earth.
It did not disturb anything.
Even a speck of dust did not rise because of it.
However, the next instant.
The earth suddenly presented countless rises, and the fiery magma gushed out of each rise like a sourceless spring, incinerating everything.
The air of destruction.
At this moment, filled the world.
Accompanied by an earth-shattering roar.
The earth, which was completely covered by magma in an instant, began to twist and tear apart.
It was as if an invisible giant hand on both sides was squeezing the entire world towards the middle.
Surface twists and tears apart.
The magma, of unknown origin, that covered the entire area was as turbulent as the vast ocean during a storm, washing over everything.
At the same time.
A black singularity silently appeared at the place where the black thunder hit just a moment ago.
The next second.
The singularity expanded instantaneously, turning into a black hole.
The devastated earth, like a microcosm, was slowly sucked in by the black hole.
The earth...
No.
To be precise.
The whole world began to shrink.
Li Jing, standing in the air, quietly watched all this. His eyes were calm, but his heart was full of waves.
This.
Was the real total destruction.
Annihilate the sky and destroy the earth?
That can’t describe the scene at this moment.
As the awe-inspiring spectacle unfolded before his eyes, Li Jing found himself gradually disappearing along with everything else that was now happening, including all his emotions. He decisively cut off all connections between the substantial power of Heaven and Earth and himself.
This power.
Was too strong...
The addictive feeling, there was no stopping it.
During this time.
There was also the process of assimilating with the Heavenly Path.
The mystery of the Heavenly Path, no one didn’t want to explore...
But under the present circumstances, it’s acceptable.
Li Jing has a clear feeling.
From the moment the Star Cloud Heavenly Path started to lend its power to him, the Heavenly Path of the Star Nebula Great World recognized him at an indescribable angle.
Recognized him as the master of this world.
Gave him the ability to manipulate everything with the flick of a finger.
This sounds very beautiful.
A master of the Heavenly Path of a great world, the power and authority are very attractive.
However, a painful reality is hidden behind it.
Accepting all this, the result you will welcome is a complete fusion with the Heavenly Path.
From then on.
Your individual will, individual form will no longer exist, and completely become a part of the Heavenly Path.
Wiping the cold sweat off his forehead, Li Jing looked inwardly at himself to confirm no problems, then gazed at the black hole slowly sucking in the now magma-filled land, his heart was deeply shocked.
Heaven wants to bring about the Apocalypse.
All things perish.
There’s nothing to discuss.
But the Apocalypse is also the same.
The Chongyuan Holy Realm, which has been destroyed several times, did not experience the Apocalypse like this in the past...
Even so to speak.
Compared to the current situation, it’s entirely a small scale.
Indeed.
Li Jing did not witness the Apocalypse experienced by the Chongyuan Holy Realm, but he was certain that they were different.
After all, he is now in a great world.
The Chongyun Holy Realm is just a mini World...
If there is anything that shocks Li Jing the most, it is.
Undoubtedly, what started before his eyes, in the literal sense, is a Heavenly path destruction, a Heavenly path destruction that was born purely to destroy the entire world without any reservation.
To this day.
Li Jing has the ability to call upon the Heavenly Path’s Punishment.
Upon merging with Ling Ling, this ability rose to a whole new level.
However, it is somewhat different from the Heavenly Path’s punishment invoked by the will of the Heavenly Path.
Originally.
This was Li Jing’s understanding.
But now, the wild reality tells him.
What he lacks.
Is not little...
A Heavenly path punishment without reservation, is enough to obliterate a complete world.
You need to understand more.
The current Upper Three Realms is not an ordinary world, except for the Universe Great World’s Upper Three Realms; any small World Li Jing has been to could not be compared with it.
...
The destruction of the entire Upper Three Realms is very slow.
It took a full two days and three nights for the entire Upper Three Realms to fully shrink.
This speed.
This is much slower compared to when Li Jing once saw the energetic Charming Spirit’s snap of her fingers to destroy the Ancient Fairyland.
However, both have completely different concepts.
What the Charming Spirit destroyed with a snap of her fingers were only the life forms and some physical objects in the Ancient Fairyland.
Meanwhile, the current Upper Three Realms were completely destroyed from the roots.
If there are living beings in this world who are incapable of leaving, you will taste what is known as despair.
Let alone living beings.
In these two days and three nights, Li Jing witnessed countless troublesome Destruction Spore Groups that had absorbed enough nutrients to grow crazily.
However, the stubborn Destruction Spore Group ultimately could not resist the destructive black hole created by the unreserved Heavenly path punishment; they were destroyed in an instant as they were drawn into it along with the corresponding space.
It is proved by reality.
The Destruction Spore Group can be wiped out.
But to wipe them out, the cost to pay is extremely painful.
Putting these aside.
The Upper Three Realms have completely contracted, the destructive black hole created by the Heavenly path punishment has destroyed everything in the world, allowing Li Jing to witness a magnificent scene.
The Upper Three Realms, known to be the cornerstone of the Star Nebula Great World, is not entirely absorbed by the destructive black hole, but is compressed to a level where the destructive black hole can destroy everything.
At this moment, before Li Jing’s eyes.
The Upper Three Realms themselves seem like a transparent sphere enveloped outside the destructive black hole.
Where he stands now, is endless void.
The strange thing is.
This void is not that void.
Right now, the void Li Jing was in was like a static framework.
A framework that could just fit the Upper Three Realms and complete it just like a jigsaw puzzle.
This wave gave Li Jing much to ponder.
Just observing.
The sound of the Star Cloud Heavenly Path, with a slight hint of a milky sweetness, resonated in his ear.
"You were right, the Destruction Spore Group indeed has a main body."
?
Li Jing was slightly stunned.
The main body of the Destruction Spore Group, undoubtedly, was his primary target in this calculation.
But he...
Had not found the main body appearing.
The sudden revelation from the Star Cloud Heavenly Path, however, confirmed to him that the main body had been detected.
Subconsciously, he looked towards the Upper Three Realms, which had completely shrunk into a sphere with an estimated diameter of just a few dozen meters.
One glance.
There was nothing inside.
Not even a grain of sand.
What there was.
Was just a constantly twisting Destruction Black Hole.
Facing this scene, Li Jing frowned and asked.
"Where is the object?"
"The void borders, where the Upper Three Realms should be, are attempting to break through."
Star Cloud Heavenly Path blandly stated.
Li Jing looked around as he heard this, saying.
"The specific location, we can’t let that thing escape. Such a disaster must not be left..."
Before he could finish, the Star Cloud Heavenly Path interjected.
"You sure know how to make excuses. Do you really think I don’t know what you’re after?"
"Cough."
Li Jing coughed, and said.
"Xingyun, don’t you still have a piece of the Destruction Spore Group on you? If we don’t solve the main body, you..."
Halfway through his sentence, Star Cloud Heavenly Path calmly stated.
"That’s no longer a problem, I’ve just wiped it off in the Destruction Black Hole."
"..."
Li Jing.
Everything else aside.
The fact that Star Cloud Heavenly Path had wiped it off, truly shocked him.
Due to the power of the Star Cloud Heavenly Path, the Destruction Black Hole did not affect him, but he would never dare to get close, lest he be swallowed up.
This...
Actually used the Destruction Black Hole to wipe off the Destruction Spore Group that had infested her!?
Imagining a white-haired little girl pushing through the Destruction Black Hole and then rubbing it a few more times, Li Jing felt his scalp tingling.
At this moment.
The voice of Star Cloud Heavenly Path rang in his ear again.
"You must be clear about this, it’s not easy to deal with. Now that I can sense its essence, this entity doesn’t have the notion of annihilation, and is incomparable to the Destruction Spore Group that can be destroyed at its core."
As she spoke, she continued.
"Moreover, it’s not meaningful to destroy this main body. There are certainly other Destruction Spore Groups in the depths of the void. As far as it stands, it’s okay to let it run. Anyway, one Upper Three Realms has been completely destroyed. Destroying another Immortal Realm is just a bit painful for me, but if there are any more complications, it might be more loss than gain."
After hearing the words of Star Cloud Heavenly Path, Li Jing pondered for a moment, then looked up.
"Send me over there. It’s no problem if it has no concept of annihilation. If I can borrow your power, it should be manageable. If we can’t handle it, let it go."
For Star Cloud Heavenly Path.
Undoubtedly, letting go of the main body of the Destruction Spore Group was a more practical choice.
This wave.
Her loss was huge.
Next, she would have to lose an Immortal Realm.
The losses caused by the Destruction Spore Group in the past billions of miles were incalculable.
The Will of Heaven was an absolute rational and fair existence.
From the perspective of benefits and costs, compared to the possible further losses caused by entangling with the main body of the Destruction Spore Group, letting it go was the correct choice.
However, Li Jing insisted on taking a shot, she had no reason and could not possibly oppose it.
Someone had done her such a big favor, she had to fulfill this small request.
Star Cloud Heavenly Path did not respond directly.
Li Jing only felt a blur before his eyes, and then found himself being transported behind a huge human-shaped creature covered in Destruction Spore Group, trying to rip open the void with its claws.
At first glance.
It looked like the Destruction Spore Group’s parasitized human form.
But if you look closely.
You will find that it actually has no form of its own.
The figure, at least a hundred meters tall, was composed entirely of a dense array of Destruction Spore Group.
Within its chest cavity, there was a dark, purple heart.
Just one look at this monster, and Li Jing confirmed that the encapsulated heart within its chest, made up of the Destruction Spore Group, was the main entity. The Spore Group that formed humanoid shaping around it was just to facilitate its movement.
The Destruction Spore Group’s main body was very sharp.
Almost the moment when Li Jing arrived, it, which had nearly torn a gap in the void space, suddenly turned around.
The humanoid constructed by the Spore Group’s main body had no eyes. Instead, it had twin round holes emitting a red glow.
The two stared at each other.
The top part of the Spore Group’s main body split apart, revealing a large mouth.
"Roar!"
Facing this intimidating roar, Li Jing remained calm, moving his thoughts to summon the powerful surges of the heavenly force once again.
Seeing this, the Spore Group’s main body did not have the slightest intention to fight back, it tried to pull apart the void space that it had already torn up in an effort to escape.
Including the main body.
As a whole, the Destruction Spore Group, this sinister group, does not have much combat power.
Their feature lies in their ability to erode all life forms and then become hard to shake off.
The present main body, possessing superior wisdom, also clearly understood that, with the Star Cloud Heavenly Path behind Li Jing and its species cannot take advantage as before, it had no choice but to run.
But escaping was not so easy.
The void space where the Upper Three Realms are located is a stable framework.
To tear this void space, compared to the difficulty of filling the framework within the Upper Three Realms, the difficulty was much higher.
If the Star Nebula Great World is likened to a jigsaw puzzle.
The Upper Three Realms originally fitted into it as a component.
To tear apart the void space in the Upper Three Realms is essentially to tear apart the Upper Three Realms.
Without the Upper Three Realms, the remaining framework is faced with the complete framework of the Star Nebula Great World puzzle at a macro level.
"Roar!"
The Destruction Spore Group’s main body roared frantically while trying to tear apart a path of escape.
Li Jing slowly raised his hand from behind, aiming at it.
The next instant.
A wisp of Chaos Qi flowed from his fingertips and blended with the vast heavenly power that gathered together. This then silently transformed the supreme power of the heavenly force, which could not be said to have any hierarchy, into a milky white God Power.
"God says, this evil should be extinguished."
The highest authority was triggered.
With the blessing of the power of the Star Cloud Heavenly Path, this authority rose to an unimaginable height.
The Spore Group, which was struggling to tear apart the void space, was trembling all over.
Its health bar, shown as a question mark, consequently displayed a nine-digit health bar...
Yes.
Nine digits.
But this was not the main body’s own health bar.
It was the health bar of the main body itself and all the Destruction Spore Group forming the humanoid shape under its control combined.
In a way.
The Destruction Spore Group is really weak...
The highest nine-digit health bar, when divided among all the spores that constituted the humanoid figure of the Destruction Spore Group, probably equated to a single digit per spore.
"God says, the Holy Light will purify all the evil before my eyes."
Li Jing’s calm words echoed again.
In an instant.
A milky white light appeared suddenly without warning, engulfing the Spore Group’s main body.
The next second.
The Destruction Spore Group silently dissipated within the sacred light.
"Essence Source +8732041340."
A prompt popped up in front of him, pointing out that the Destruction Spore Group’s main body was completely dead, and Li Jing couldn’t help but bug his eyes out.
All the spores in the Upper Three Realms, except for the main body of the Destruction Spore Group, were completely annihilated in the Destruction Black Hole. He originally thought he wouldn’t get much out of this journey, but he didn’t expect the Destruction Spore Group’s main body to be this valuable.
Li Jing counted the essence several times before daring to confirm.
He bagged eight billion seven hundred million essence in this round!
"Level up, 656. Chaos Qi Intensity +1312, Skill Points +2."
"Level up, 657. Chaos Qi Intensity +1314, Skill Points +2."
"Level up, 658. Chaos Qi Intensity +1316, Skill Points +2."
"..."
"Level up, 671. Chaos Qi Intensity +1342, Skill Points +2."
The level-up prompts kept popping up, making Li Jing feel extremely refreshed.
All at once.
Sixteen levels!
This round of work was sincerely worthwhile!
It was a pity that the huge number of Destruction Spores eradicated by the Destruction Black Hole were not counted towards him. Otherwise, he would have taken off from where he stood!
Just as he was basking in his triumph, the slightly pale Star Cloud Heavenly Path quietly emerged beside him.
"Is it my imagination? The Destruction Spore Group seems to have a pitiful resistance to God Power?"
