Chapter 641: Chapter 508: The Great Void Battle_2

"Disperse!"

Standing within the Three Realms Barrier, Daoist Ancestor Hongjun waved his great hand, and the Barrier that had blocked the members of the Demon Clan for half a month dissolved calmly as if it had never existed.

Had it not been for the fact that every Quasi-Saint of the Demon Clan had been exhausted, one might have thought that the Three Realms Barrier had never appeared.

"Stop!"

Yang Mei didn’t know what Hongjun was up to, but upon seeing the Barrier disappear, he immediately ordered a halt to any rash actions below.

Who knew what kind of trap Hongjun had set.

Through the Chaos and the Void, Yang Mei and Hongjun once again stood face to face.

Seeing the flickering figures behind Ancestor Hongjun, the corners of Yang Mei’s mouth couldn’t help but curl into a scornful smile.

"Hongjun, have you brought all the people from the Three Realms here to die? How could you be thinking? Wouldn’t it be better to surrender directly? Hongjun, as long as you join the Demon Clan, I can make you the Supreme Elder of our clan, with a status only beneath mine!"

Although Yang Mei knew that Hongjun would never do so, speaking a few words didn’t require much effort.

"Enough talk, Yang Mei, your schemes will not succeed! The Three Realms cannot be destroyed just because you wish to destroy them!"

Of course, Ancestor Hongjun would not be disturbed by Yang Mei’s words.

"If that’s the case, then let’s fight! It just so happens that I slaughtered a Three-Step Sage some time ago. Today, let me see how much stronger you, bolstered by the power of the Heavenly Dao, are compared to the last one!"

After speaking, Yang Mei attacked first.

Hongjun could not afford to delay and took Yang Mei with him, charging into the Void.

They chose to take their battlefield into the Void, also to avoid disturbing the area here.

Once the two left, a fierce battle was on the verge of breaking out.

Saint Taiqing looked at the Second Elder and the Great Protector, whom he had faced in the last encounter, with disdain, then set his sights on the Supreme Elder of the Demon Clan.

As fellow Two-Step Saints, the Supreme Elder of the Demons watched Saint Taiqing with a smiling face.

He had been immersed in the state of a Two-Step Saint for countless years, and he didn’t take a newly promoted Two-Step Saint seriously.

"Please!"

Saint Taiqing said politely, then soared into the sky.

The Supreme Elder didn’t say much, following him right away.

Afterward, the remaining five One-Step Saints from the Three Realms all surged forward.

The Leader of the Tongtian Sect blocked the Second and Third Elders.

Yuanshi celestial Venerable intercepted Asura.

Nuwa confronted the Great Protector.

Zhun Ti and Jieyin each engaged with Ancestor Wu Yu and the Second Protector in combat.

Everyone kept a considerable distance from the battles of others, ensuring they wouldn’t be caught by surprise by an attack nor disrupt anyone else’s fight.

After their departure, the Demon Clan was left with only about a hundred Quasi-Saints and the Great Elder Ghost Slayer. The Three Realms had only Wang Yang leading over fifty Quasi-Saints to continue guarding the border.

"Do you still wish to resist stubbornly? With just one Two-Step Saint, how could you possibly stop the army of my Demon Clan?"

Ghost Slayer looked at Wang Yang as if looking at a dead body.

A One-Step Saint didn’t even appear in his sight.

"After I leave, you must keep them out of the Three Realms at all costs!"

Wang Yang didn’t respond to Ghost Slayer; instead, he ordered the people behind him.

"Rest assured, Saint Wang Yang, we will certainly not fail our mission! Please, be careful!"

The people looked at Wang Yang with reverence in their eyes.

Wang Yang nodded, glanced at Ghost Slayer, made a welcoming gesture with an open hand, and then flew out into the Void.

Ghost Slayer scoffed and immediately followed Wang Yang.

He was determined to accompany this One-Step Saint, ignorant of the heights of heaven and depths of earth, in a fatal dalliance, preferably leaving him begging for life or death.

As soon as he entered the Void, Wang Yang felt the difference there.

In the Three Realms, even amid the spreading Chaos, Wang Yang never had such a reaction; at the very least, despite the Chaos being the final resting place of the Three Realms, the Chaos Qi was still abundant.

But in the Void, it was truly silent; one could feel nothing, as if both mouth and eyes were covered.

Most crucially, there was no Spiritual Energy within the Void.

This meant that if one were to battle here, once the Power of a Saint in one’s body was exhausted, even a Saint would be nothing more than a slightly larger ant here, at risk of dying at any moment.

Perhaps, this was the cruelest aspect of the Void.

"So there’s really no one left in the Three Realms. A One-Step Saint dares to confront a Two-Step Saint?"

Following Wang Yang deep into the Void, Ghost Slayer said to the somewhat unstable Wang Yang, "Moreover, aren’t you just a One-Step Saint who has only recently Achieved Saintliness, probably not yet having stabilized your Cultivation Level?"

"Hahaha, even if the Three Realms want to send you out as cannon fodder, do they have to be so obvious about it?"

"Why all the nonsense? Today, it’s either your death or my demise!"

Wang Yang let out a cold laugh, completely unaffected by the other’s words.

The words of Ghost Slayer were not said in vain; a One-Step Saint was one thing, but the Word Becomes Law of a Two-Step Saint could disturb one’s mind even with a casual remark.

This was precisely why there was such a vast gap between Two-Step Saints and One-Step Saints.

"Restrain!"

Ghost Slayer said softly.

At the same time, Wang Yang felt the space around him continuously compress, restricting his movements.

Most crucially, even though he hadn’t moved at all, Wang Yang still felt the space beneath his feet collapsing incessantly, as if about to fall into a bottomless abyss.

Wang Yang did not anticipate such a situation; he hadn’t expected the other to strike so swiftly and catch him completely off guard.

Most crucially, a single engagement had plunged Wang Yang into a crisis, where he seemed to be standing still, but the space had already begun to collapse unknowingly.

"Space!"

Without any delay, Wang Yang unleashed the power of the Space Dao, but this just slowed his fall. Although barely perceptible, he could still feel the space under his feet continuously giving way.

This wasn’t restraint, it was entrapment!

Mere restraint in one place wouldn’t have this effect; while restraining, Ghost Slayer also caused space to collapse.

The layers of space collapsed upon each other, a situation surely unbearable for any One-Step Saint.

However, Wang Yang was not an ordinary One-Step Saint. Only after unleashing the Space Dao and quickly employing the Time Dao did these two strongest Daos allow him to barely regain his composure.

"Eh, I didn’t expect you to have a couple of tricks up your sleeve, but a Two-Step Saint is not someone who can be countered just by mastering two Dao powers!"

Ghost Slayer was surprised to see Wang Yang recover and expressed his astonishment.

Without profoundly mastering the Space Dao and the Time Dao, it would be impossible to break free from his Word Becomes Law.

To any observer, the two seemed to be standing still, merely talking, but in that exchange, Wang Yang had already faced a life-and-death crisis.

It also made him once again fully aware of the power of a Two-Step Saint.

Fifty types of Dao powers circulated within him, ready to burst forth at any moment.

"Forget it, consider this just a bit of fun!"

"Overlap!"

With a wave of Ghost Slayer’s hand, even though it appeared they stood face to face, Wang Yang felt the distance between them expand instantly.

Wang Yang’s gaze sharpened, not expecting his opponent to also utilize the power of space.

Between them, countless layers had been added to the space, and rashly charging in would only lead to entering another layer of space.

To reach the other side, one couldn’t know how much time it would take.

"Just a One-Step Saint, if you can break through, then come face me, and I’ll play along. If you can’t, then I’m leaving! I don’t want to waste too much time on you!"

After speaking, Ghost Slayer intended to leave for the Three Realms.

For them, conquering the Three Realms was of utmost importance.

As for helping others?

Everything could wait until he had destroyed the Three Realms.

"You!"

Wang Yang wanted to say something but ultimately, he didn’t.

For now, he needed to quickly dispel the overlapping layers left by his opponent.

Otherwise, by the time Ghost Slayer arrived, the Quasi-Saints of the Three Realms would be utterly powerless to fight back.

"Fusion of the Daos!"

Wang Yang took a deep breath. This technique, which he had understood on the path to Achieve Saintliness, was meant as his trump card, but now he had to use it here.

Fifty Daos merged together, unleashing waves of energy that swept through the area.

Ghost Slayer, originally headed for the Three Realms, couldn’t help but look back, only to see a huge orb of light hurtling toward him.

The layers of space between them, shattered like mirrors, lay in disarray.

"How is this possible!"

Ghost Slayer no longer advanced but stood still, incredulity written all over his face, for this was not something a One-Step Saint should be capable of doing.

Most crucially, the fusion of the light orb, after breaking through the layers of space, did not stop or dissipate but continued to fly towards him.
