Chapter 378 One Man Once Withstood Ten Thousand Soldiers
Chapter 378 One Man Once Withstood Ten Thousand Soldiers
Boom!
The great battle was earth-shattering, and terrifying shockwaves spread throughout both realms.
Seven days have passed since the start of the battle!
The entire demon battlefield was stained red with blood, the blood flowing into streams, and corpses piled up everywhere.
"Pure Yang Qi Slays a Thousand Autumns!"
Lu Dongbin, the Pure Yang Ancestor, had lost his previous dashing demeanor. The once-great sword immortal now resembled a blood-red Asura. His immortal robes were stained with blood, his hair was disheveled, and the Pure Yang Sword in his hand was now riddled with nicks and chips!
"Hahaha, that's great, that's great!"
Bai Qi, the god of war, had a mountain of corpses piled up behind him, his murderous aura surging through the clouds. Yet, he was now utterly exhausted!
"The scholars must not fail to Hongyi, there is a long way to go!"
Mencius, whose cultivation was close to the supreme level, had suppressed countless enemies with his righteous spirit. But at this moment, under the siege of dozens of immortals, the Confucian hat on his head had fallen to the ground!
……
This battle was too brutal!
The Ancestral Gods and Immortals returned from the ancient war, but their numbers were far fewer than those of the Eternal True Realm!
Numerous eternal royal families and immortal clans have ruled the Eternal True Realm for countless years, accumulating a terrifying amount of experts and resources.
The number of cultivators at the supreme level alone is about ten times that of Emperor Star, and the number of ordinary immortals is countless.
Emperor Star and Immortals had killed so many that their hands were sore, but the number of enemies in front of them did not decrease at all. The army of the Eternal True Realm filled the battlefield like the sea.
During the ancient war, the ancient gods and the immortals of the Earth Star once invaded the Eternal True Realm from the Void Realm, causing a great calamity that shook immortality and eternity. But this time, they couldn't even penetrate the battlefield of demons.
"They're made of iron, how many nails can they crush? Don't be afraid, keep going!"
"Hehe, so many years have passed, even if you return, you are still just the ancient you, but the major royal families and clans of the Eternal True Realm are no longer at the level of the past!"
"Kill them all! The Eternal Royal Court has issued its decree: the spoils of the Void Heaven Realm will be distributed according to the number of immortals killed in this battle. Kill them!"
At this moment, all the major families in the Eternal True Realm have seen the fatigue of the Emperor Star Immortals and are determined to finish them off in one battle!
"Are we all going to die? I'm not reconciled!"
"The Eternal Royal Family and the Immortal Clan have become the most terrifying demons throughout history..."
"Fight to the last ounce of strength, give it your all!"
The Emperor Star Immortals, as well as the people of the Divine Realm and the cultivators of the mortal world, were all roaring in anger.
"die!"
A long spear suddenly thrust forward, piercing through a cultivator in the mortal realm.
"So what if you're Chisongzi? Today you deserve to be executed!"
An immortal being attacked, and Chisongzi, who was almost at his last gasp, received a heavy blow to the back, causing blood to splatter everywhere!
"I will extract your righteous spirit from your very bones!"
Even the Confucian sage Mencius was sent flying by the combined efforts of several immortal beings!
The great battle of the Ancestral Gods is still unresolved, and the Supreme Demon Gods and the Immortal Kings are still clashing, but the defenses of the Emperor Star Immortals are on the verge of collapse.
Over countless years, the core strength of the immortal families in the Eternal True Realm has far surpassed that of the Divine Realm and the Imperial Star!
"This is bad! We can't hold this place. The Ancestral God and the Demon God will surely be distracted!"
"hold onto!"
"Let's give it our all!"
Many people roared in anger, saying that the ancestral gods such as Pangu and Nuwa, as well as the demon gods such as Xing Tian and Chi You, had all gone to fight against powerful enemies of the same level in unknown places. If this place was breached, they would have no choice but to turn back to rescue them.
The defense line is on the verge of complete collapse!
"Boom!"
But at that moment, an astonishing aura erupted, and in an instant, everyone on the battlefield felt an earth-shattering rage. It was as if a scourge was burning in the heavens!
Everyone stared in shock. In the sky, a young man covered in blood stood tall. Behind him, a vast and boundless world stretched out before him. At that moment, heavenly fire descended and burned across the land!
"Divine Fire Realm?"
"Impossible, how could someone at the Divine Fire Realm be so astonishing?"
How did he do that?
Everyone was shocked.
This person was none other than Li Lan, who actually sensed an opportunity to break through to the Divine Fire Realm during this bloody battle.
Moreover, the divine fire he was displaying at this moment was truly astonishing. When ordinary people break through to the Divine Fire Realm, they only need to introduce enough "Five Elements Fire Essence" into their forbidden world to create a flame. But Li Lan... at this moment, heavenly fire filled the sky, as if it would burn the entire world to ashes!
In his forbidden world, countless volcanoes erupted, turning the entire world a fiery red.
"This is... the wrath of the people?!"
An immortal spoke solemnly, saying, "His path... has taken another step forward."
"If we let him continue, we'll all be unable to deal with him. Kill him!"
He made the first move against Li Lan.
"Please rest, everyone. I, Li, will not back down an inch within the next three days!"
Li Lan remained completely calm as he addressed the great sages such as Chisongzi, Lü Dongbin, and Mencius.
Their combat power and laws are extremely strong, but they also have a fatal flaw: their power is ultimately finite.
However, Li Lan cultivates the Way of Existence, which is to create something from nothing. The invisible essence and energy in his forbidden world continuously nourish him, so Li Lan's power is almost inexhaustible when he fights.
"May I borrow your halberd, senior?"
Then, Li Lan spoke to Bai Qi, the God of Slaughter!
After all, he was only at the Divine Fire Realm, lacking the Dao principles and magical power of the Immortal level. To fight against the Immortals, he needed the help of Immortal Divine Weapons.
"Hahaha, so heroic! Well done!"
Without any hesitation, the God of War Bai Qi threw his blood-red halberd over. Li Lan caught it, raised it, and thrust it forward!
There were no superfluous movements, not even the Dao principles were revealed; it appeared to be just an ordinary strike.
But this thrust caused the approaching immortal's expression to change drastically.
Terrifying Dao principles and immortal holy light immediately erupted from his body. However, the immortal holy light that was enough to make them invincible and immortal was completely reduced to nothing under the light of Li Lan's halberd. The halberd directly pierced through his protection and penetrated his body!
The immortal stared in disbelief, looking down at the halberd, and stammered, "Indestructible..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was already blown into a cloud of blood mist by the unparalleled ferocity of the halberd!
"What? He can kill immortals?"
"He's only at the Divine Fire Realm!"
"It's not that he can kill immortals, but that he completely crushes them... Immortals are like toys in his presence?"
All the immortals felt a chill at this moment.
Immortals, second only to the Immortal King, are all important figures in the Eternal True Realm. They are generally the heads of major Immortal families, kings, and so on, possessing extremely high status and power.
Divine fire? It's utterly insignificant compared to immortality, like an ant.
But now, Li Lan has done it: Divine Fire Slays the Immortal!
"The power of the heavens that he himself possesses can completely extinguish our immortal holy light."
An old immortal spoke solemnly, saying, "An immortal divine weapon can grant him immortal-level power, and the power he just manifested... it actually resembles a supreme Dao principle?!"
"We must not be careless. Although this child is only a divine fire, he may have already comprehended the supreme technique of invincibility!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was even more astonished.
The supreme law can be considered the ultimate goal of cultivation for cultivators in the world. There are countless immortals in the Eternal True Realm, but most of them cannot grasp the true supreme law in their lifetime, cannot cross that threshold, and eventually wither away in the years.
But Li Lan actually comprehended it at the Divine Fire Realm?
This... is just too monstrous.
"This child cannot be allowed to live, absolutely cannot be allowed to live!"
"If he grows up, he will surely become a nightmare for the world!"
"Kill him, kill him!"
At this moment, all the immortals felt threatened, and in an instant, the army of the Eternal True Realm followed these immortals and charged forward.
"Human Emperor!"
"Let's fight again!"
"How can we let him face this alone?"
Bai Zhou and the others, along with some cultivators from the Divine Realm, instinctively wanted to step forward and fight alongside Li Lan.
"No need, he is still comprehending the Dao!"
However, Chishongzi and the others spoke up. Their expressions were solemn, and they could see that Li Lan wanted to use a higher-level battle to hone himself.
"We'll seize the time to recover; if he gets into danger, then we'll make our move!"
They immediately sat down cross-legged to regulate their breathing.
At this moment, the vast army of the Eternal True Realm swept in, leaving only Li Lan on the battlefield of demons!
The chilling air was as cold as frost, the enemy's battle cries were as loud as the sea, and countless Dao principles transformed into a rain of light that almost completely engulfed him.
Li Lan, wielding Bai Qi's blood-red halberd, took a step forward, and the halberd swept across. In an instant, wherever it went, those vast laws and divine powers could not touch him. Ten steps in front of him, the halberd's edge created a vacuum.
"This is... the prototype of the Way of No Law?!"
One of the immortals was shocked. He also cultivated this path and had already gained some insights, so he recognized it immediately.
"Magic and supernatural powers can't kill him, switch to force!"
A cultivator shouted, and in an instant, an immortal being as large as a mountain stepped out. He smashed down with a huge iron hammer, the force of which shattered the heavens, but Li Lan raised his halberd and blocked it head-on.
The immortal was astonished. He was a body cultivator with extremely strong physical strength. Even among immortals of the same level, few could withstand him. How did Li Lan manage to do it?
"I'm here to lend you a hand!"
Another immortal stepped forward and placed his hand on the immortal's shoulder, instantly increasing his power once again.
But Li Lan remained completely still!
"I refuse to believe that a mere Divine Fire Master can turn the world upside down."
"Below the immortals, all are but ants. No matter how powerful you are, can you fight three against one?"
"Make your move! Kill him at all costs!"
The other immortals also spoke up one after another. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen immortals joined forces. The iron hammer in the hands of the body-refining immortal, with its handle forged from divine metal, began to tremble and was almost bent. However, Li Lan still did not back down a single step!
"This is... the power of limitless power?!"
At this moment, an immortal saw through the deception and exclaimed in shock, "He actually grasped the true meaning of three supreme Daos?"
Its invincible sharpness, its unstoppable force wherever it went, and now its combat power is limitless...
The other immortals were also completely shocked!
The supreme path and the supreme law—if an immortal obtains even one of them, they are enough to step into the supreme realm and become an immortal king.
At present, the immortals and even the eternal kings existing in the Eternal True Realm can only control two supreme Daos at most. Moreover, the two Daos are often closely related, such as no birth and no death, no yin and no yang.
Can one control all three?
Unheard of!
In fact, these three supreme paths are not directly related.
