Chapter 919: Chapter 914 The Final Calamity IV

Jiu Se suddenly appeared behind him, wearing a sinister smile, while his hand was holding a mass of ominous, abyssal-black shadow mud, as if it had no substance.

He raised his hand, and in the instant Lin Xin’s body split, he pressed the black mud fiercely against Lin Xin’s back.

This was shadow mud, capable of contaminating planets, a phantasmal mud that polluted even the Taoist Ancestor, extracted as the sole filthy substance from countless chaotic evil souls.

Poof!

The shadow mud hit Lin Xin squarely on the back.

The many pairs of wings behind him seized up momentarily before exploding into countless white lights in all directions, trying to dispel the black mud.

But it was to no avail. The black mud rapidly expanded, completely covering most of Lin Xin’s body.

Jiu Se and Fang Yu reached out their hands from front and back simultaneously, seeming to work in harmony, beginning to manipulate the rules within this Buddhist Kingdom.

"I say, filth is the source of sin."

"I say, shadow is the enemy of Ultimate Bliss."

The two spoke almost simultaneously, as the grand and peaceful Buddha voice suddenly roared across this world.

The cracks on Lin Xin’s body increased with the sound.

"You... actually joined forces..."

His face was already twisted, as if he had realized the ruse of Fang Yu and Jiu Se.

Prior to this, they only pretended to fight to the death, but in reality, they arranged a plot to trap him in the Buddhist Kingdom and attempt to destroy him with the strongest force.

"If you were still conscious, perhaps there was a slim chance of escape.

But now?" Jiu Se smiled, reached out his hand, and like Fang Yu, clenched it toward Lin Xin.

"Shatter, First Layer!"

Instantly, the entire pale void completely shattered. Countless white space fragments were swept up by a frantic storm of time and space.

Filling this entire space-time.

This was a small cosmos and time-space created by Jiu Se with his power, but now he ruthlessly twisted the space-time rules, inducing natural conflicts, triggering a great calamity of heaven and earth, intending to destroy Lin Xin within it.

Lin Xin was trapped in this space-time, with Fang Yu’s mysterious means altering the rules, suppressing his bodily actions.

Everything here was repelling him.

Be it energy, matter, even space itself, and the flow of time, all were frantically trying to decompose and repel him.

Not only could he not mobilize any external force, but he also had to contend against this entire void every moment.

And this void was the embodiment Jiu Se had refined over the years, so he was essentially contending against Jiu Se himself.

And now, Jiu Se was willing to destroy part of his own body to annihilate Lin Xin, perhaps along with Fang Yu, attacking Lin Xin here.

With rules in ruin, time and space left no traces, completely unknowable ways to shatter this void.

Even Fang Yu had no means.

But he just blandly glanced at Lin Xin, allowing his body to be swarmed and cut into countless fragments by the white space fragments.

Judging from the residual aura, this Fang Yu was merely a clone.

Lin Xin vaguely saw fragments of the Soul Hunting Armor shattering and flying through the air.

"Replacing oneself with an Abyssal Realm Artifact for destruction?"

He still couldn’t move at this point, as the space-time rules here tightly suppressed him, forcing him to allocate most of his power to confront the rule suppression.

He could only watch helplessly as countless white space fragments swept toward him.

Boom!!

At the last moment, Lin Xin broke free his arms and tore backward.

The shattered space could no longer stop him from escaping.

The moment the space fragments crashed into him, he still managed to escape.

But to his astonishment, what he saw was not the myriad vortices of the external Fifteenth Layer Heavenly Realm.

But yet another expanse of red void ablaze with fire.

It was as if he had suddenly entered the central part of a boundless flame.

Flames terrifyingly hot, reaching hundreds of billions of degrees, were ceaselessly burning his body.

"Second Layer, Shatter!"

Jiu Se’s voice came again.

Snap!

The red flame void repeated the previous scenario.

Space shattered like glass, transforming into countless red space fragments that swept toward Lin Xin.

"Infinite Qilin!!"

Lin Xin shouted, drawing his sword, and ten arms instantly wielded trillion fiery, blood-like sword lights.

At his attribute level, no matter what sword technique was used, it unleashed his terrifying power.

In the roar, the sword lights transformed into trillions of blood-colored Qilin, clashing against the flame space fragments.

In a massive explosion, Lin Xin swiftly tore the space behind him, entering yet another new void.

This time, it was a blue-black void filled with countless lightning bolts.

*****************

"Void, Fire, Lightning, Wood, Earth, Sky, Ocean, Netherworld, and Light.

These are cycles, these are infinite!"

At this moment, Jiu Se no longer retained a human form.

His entire body melted, transforming into a gigantic nine-colored wheel.

A circular ring composed of spheres of nine colors.

The center of the ring was a swirling vortex like paint on a palette, continuously absorbing the liquid energy flowing from the spheres of nine colors.

And at the core, it was only his lone remaining humanoid trace—a semi-transparent human visage.

Transparent, red, blue-black, green, dark yellow, pale blue, pitch-black, and lastly, pale white.

These were the colors of the spheres composing Jiu Se.

Within each color sphere, a special item representing its attributes floated.

Among them were flames, lightning, young sprouts, earth, seawater, darkness, white light, and a stinking transparent colorless entity.

"At this point, what do you still have to hide?" Jiu Se looked at Fang Yu with a hint of mockery.

"Killing Lin Xin will be our final battle," Fang Yu said calmly.

His body also began to melt, turning into pools of black water that dripped around.

"He cannot possibly come out alive," Jiu Se sneered coldly.

"Even if it’s a cosmic catastrophe, my Nine Layers of Void Cycle Fragmentation can continue infinitely.

It has isolated the support of this universe, and you have widened the gap between his true form and the will of the Divine Wind.

An incomplete Divine Wind Sword Master cannot break through my nine-layer void."

As he spoke, Fang Yu slowly revealed his true form at this moment.

Unlike Jiu Se, his upper body was human, but his lower half was an eerie mass of black substance resembling countless tentacles.

"You...!? Is this primordial...!!?" Jiu Se’s eyes narrowed instantly upon seeing this form.

Before he could finish speaking, his entire being suddenly ignited.

A black flame started from below him, gradually spreading upwards.

"Demon Prison!" Countless tentacles from Fang Yu’s lower half extended wildly towards Jiu Se.

Before they could even get close to the distance of Jiu Se, all the tentacles suddenly vanished, as if they pierced into another space.

But almost simultaneously, Jiu Se felt a sharp pain all over.

The ring-shaped body manifested hundreds of holes of varying sizes. These appeared to be wounds made by those tentacles.

"You!!" He rapidly retreated, while a swirl at the center unfolded a hazy aurora, enveloping the surroundings.

"Great Heaven!"

The aurora beside Jiu Se rotated at high speed, beginning to absorb and devour everything around, trying to pull Fang Yu’s tentacles into an unknown space.

"Primordial Ashes." Fang Yu gently tore off his left arm, threw it forward, and mixed it into the River of Decay.

"With my life, I sacrifice to the primordial."

Whoosh!

In a blink, the arm burnt out completely.

In the Broken Void Heavenly Realm, something resembling volcanic ashes started drifting down without anyone knowing when.

Countless black delicate ashes fell and began flying towards the direction of Jiu Se.

Not long after, they wrapped him into a massive black sphere.

"With my body, I sacrifice to the primordial." Fang Yu appeared calm as he dug out his left eye and threw it forward, continuing to merge with the River of Decay.

"Destruction burns."

He pointed his only intact right hand at Jiu Se.

Boom!!!

Jiu Se burned entirely.

A colorless, invisible flame instantly ignited him.

Simultaneously, thin strands of transparent aura emerged from the black sphere of Jiu Se, surging into Fang Yu.

That was Buddha power belonging to the Future Buddha, and also the purest soul elemental force after being burnt.

"You did it."

A cold female voice came from the side.

As Fang Yu was devouring Jiu Se’s soul power, he turned slightly to look.

It was a jade-white, slender flood dragon, with a pure white woman standing on its horns. Her long hair almost covered the entire dragon’s head.

Three points of dark golden glow on the woman’s brow glimmered faintly, gazing distantly in this direction.

"Does the promise made sixty thousand years ago still count?"

Tian Yin Dragon King asked calmly.

"Of course." Fang Yu’s expression remained unchanged.

"You used the Divine Wind Sword Master to hold back most of Jiu Se’s strength, then at the moment of his weakness, you unleashed your full power, revealing your trump card, trapping and refining him.

From the beginning, was that your plan? Otherwise, why would you specially block Jiu Se for the Sherie Divine Monarch at that time?"

Tian Yin said lightly.

"Perhaps." Fang Yu was noncommittal.

"Future Buddha, perhaps you are the true Future Buddha who sees." Tian Yin slowly retreated, waiting for Fang Yu to completely devour Jiu Se.

Only then would it be the moment for her to truly battle to the death with Fang Yu.

Only in a battle to the death could she leverage the explosive power of the two, twist the universe, and enter the grand universe.

Suddenly, the surroundings fell into a rare silence.

Fang Yu quietly devoured Buddha power while Tian Yin Dragon King awaited his complete ending.

Unknowingly, time passed, and in a flash, a thousand years went by.

The whirlpools around this layer of the Heavenly Realm, at some unknown point, also began to slow down.

Subtle white tribulation aura silently invaded the whirlpool here, adding an extra color to it.

Inhale....

Exhale...

Inhale...

Exhale....

Fang Yu and Tian Yin, in the depths, heard an incomparably massive, indescribable breathing sound.

The breathing sound pierced through the Heavenly Realm, clearly penetrating the minds of both.

"Cosmic Inhalation and Exhalation! It has arrived!"

Fang Yu suddenly opened his eyes, stomped his foot.

A crack instantly appeared beneath his feet.

The crack was bottomless, seemingly able to penetrate to the deepest part of the universe.

The black sphere formed by Jiu Se had now shrunk by half, leaving only a watermelon-sized portion unfinished.

Fang Yu grabbed the black sphere and leaped towards the crack.
