Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme-Chapter 1161 - 699: Opening the Heavens
Three Heavens, Four Realms. The Three Heavens are the battlefield of the Heavenly Immortals, and the Four Realms are contested by the Earth Immortals. All the Tenth-Order Lords and Ninth-Order Lords of the Demon Abyss have gathered here.
After so many years of development, under the rules of the Sky-reaching Tower and the Ten Thousand Demon Abyss, although many new lords have emerged, few have reached the Tenth Order. In both the Sky-reaching Tower and the Ten Thousand Demon Abyss, there are just over two hundred.
Over two hundred Tenth-Order Lords, if evenly distributed, would mean fifty per realm. However, the distribution is not even, as the Four Realms vary in strength, with the Asura Realm being preeminent, attracting nearly a hundred Tenth-Order Lords.
Among them, the Four Great Asura Kings stand at the pinnacle, with the "Luo Hou King" reputed as the strongest.
Behold this Great Asura King, standing north of the Blood Sea Great Array, where he has established a royal city.
The royal city spans over eighty thousand miles, with seven intricate layers of city walls rising over three thousand miles high. Therein, he unfurls his colossal form, his hands obscuring the sun and moon, his palms covering the sky, synergized by a blood-red Demon Star in the firmament, eager to support the Blood Moon in devouring the radiant light of the Great Sun.
Luo Hou Swallowing Heaven, Jidu Eating the Sun!
Ordinary lords all possess innate talents. Being a Tenth-Order Demon God, how could he be plain and unremarkable?
This is his Talent Skill — Swallowing Heaven and Eating the Sun!
Devouring the heavens and the earth, the sun and the moon, he enhances his own strength, gains home-field advantage, and weakens his opponents’ connection with the Dao of Heaven and Earth. This causes the enemy’s spells, Divine Powers, and formations to become paralyzed and ineffective, a very powerful and comprehensive special talent.
But the prerequisite is... he can swallow it.
"Roar!!!"
Luo Hou raises his hands high, his gigantic palms obscuring the heavens and the earth, the sun and the moon, summoning the Demon Star Jidu, transforming into the Asura Demon Sword, and slashing at the sky, intent on beheading the Great Sun first before proceeding to devour it.
Unexpectedly, a sword sweeps across the sky, boldly intercepting Jidu, reversing the momentum of the sword, and a brilliant Sword Light bursts through the bloody sword gleam.
"Roar!!!"
Jidu’s Demon Sword is blocked, unable to cut down the Great Sun, causing Luo Hou to rage furiously, pulling his enormous form from the Blood Sea Royal City and taking flight.
The King of Asuras surges into the firmament, instantly merging with the Jidu Demon Sword and transforming into a blood-colored meteor striking upwards, challenging the Holy Sword’s edge.
Despite anomalies occurring in the Sky-reaching Tower, Ten Thousand Demon Abyss, and the Xuanhuang Realm causing reliance on Taoist Soldiers for commander combat, reaching the Tenth Order Earth Immortal rank, troop types and heroes, along with reinforcement from various structures, already transcend mere locational effects, directly influencing the entire territory, the whole world.
Thus, while Luo Hou appears to be fighting alone, in reality, he still has the support of countless Asuras and the enhancement of the Royal City of Asuras and the Blood Sea Great Array. His strength has reached the extreme of the Tenth Order, not inferior to the present-day Ancient Great Emperors of the Taixuan Divine Land, even surpassing them somewhat.
But he is not the only one with dependencies.
High above, a radiant light shines brightly, and instantly Sword Qi pierces the sky and reaches the bottom of the Blood Sea.
The Nine Rites Xuanyuan, utilizing both normal and reverse applications, opens the Sword Array anew!
This is the Xuanhuang Realm, not the Azure Star Realm. Xu Yang, who has stepped into the Tenth Rank Realm and holds the position of an Earth Immortal Fruit, even without the vast cataclysmic luck and the power of heaven and earth, solely relying on the Nine Rites Xuanyuan and the Heavenly Mechanics Methods combined with his own strength, is still able to contend at the peak, debate with Great Emperors, and even triumph in battle.
Nine Rites Xuanyuan, Heavenly Mechanics Methods along with Skill Characteristics, and his own accumulated powers, fruits of the Ten Thousand Dao... Within the same realm, who can match him?
This is the key to breaking the deadlock!
"Boom!!!"
A myriad of Sword Streams pierce heaven and earth, and the Nine Ceremony Sword Formation forms in an instant, employing the power of the Holy Dao both normally and in reversal.
Caught in a trap and sinking into heaviness, Luo Hou’s form materializes, wielding the Jidu Demon Sword and showing an expression of shock and fury.
As powerful as he is, caught in this formation, he also feels immense pressure.
What kind of opponent is this?
"King!"
"Luo Hou!" frёewebηovel.cѳm
Seeing this, the Asura Demon multitude also senses grave danger. Immediately, several Demon Gods ascend to the sky, desiring to relieve Luo Hou’s dire straits, including not a few Tenth-Order beings, even one Asura King.
"Amitabha!"
"Where is the Demon Head going!"
However, would the Xuanhuang Immortals and the multitude of the Ten Thousand Dao just stand idly by? They move to intercept immediately, with chants of Buddhas arising, and Ksitigarbha stepping boldly forth, directly blocking the Asura King.
Though only of a "Hero" body and unable to enter the Tenth Order Realm any longer, relying on the Heavenly Mechanics Methods and the former abilities of a Peak Earth Immortal, he is still able to block the Asura King for a moment, buying time for the main battlefield.
Just like Ksitigarbha, so are the Xuanhuang Immortals. This time, although the Wandao School is leading the attack, they are not alone; they also have numerous allies, such as Immortal Master Tantai of the Kunlun Immortal Realm, who along with a group of Earth Immortal Lords from the Sky-reaching Tower, are drawn into this battle to alleviate the pressure on the Wandao School.
Otherwise, relying solely on the force of the Wandao School, how could they conquer the Asura Realm formed by nearly a hundred "Emperor Demons"?
"Kill!!!"
When the two sides confront each other utterly, the battle commences with final moves, leaving no room for reservation, both aiming to doom their enemy.
Within the Nine Ceremony Sword Formation, Xu Yang’s figure appears, wielding the Xuanyuan against enemies, already triggering the might of the Extreme Dao.
The extreme of the Holy Dao, the authority of heaven and earth.
The pressure from the Sword Formation intensifies, like boiling water, fuel by countless firewood, becoming more fierce within the Alchemy Cauldron.
Luo Hou, connected with the Blood Sea, still endures immense pressure, his body emitting mournful groans, the sound of flesh and bone resounding.
But this is not enough to make an Asura King yield. Behold him handling Jidu, the Demon Blade also executing a slash imbued with Extreme Divine Power.
Blood Sea Asura, attaining Dao through slaughter, as the King of Asuras, Luo Hou is exceptional, already from the Dao of Slaughter comprehending the Dao of Life, possessing the ability to transform murder into life, nurturing the multitude of Asuras. Yet this is merely a basic for the King of Kings; he has also grasped the Dao of Heaven and Earth, the principles of the sun and the moon.
