MTLNOVEL Chapter 533: Fierce Battle
"Ah!"
With a thunderous roar like a bolt from the blue, endless pressure burst forth from the Pig Emperor,
followed by his form rapidly expanding, carrying the momentum to topple mountains, he charged towards Emperor Yi, who was a dozen miles away.
A deafening boom ensued, amidst wind and thunder, as the soaring yellow light dispersed the gloomy sky, revealing a mighty boar taller than mountains, treading on rolling yellow clouds, crashing into a giant figure mid-air.
Boom!
The atmosphere trembled, the void quivered faintly, the Pig Emperor burst through over a hundred miles in a breath, before halting his enormous form.
However, this earth-shattering collision hit nothing.
At this moment, Zhao Sheng and Xie Jue Nan attacked simultaneously from the sides, only to meet the same fate.
They "watched helplessly" as, at the instant the Pig Emperor's true body collided, Emperor Yi vanished into thin air, disappearing not only from sight but even beyond the reach of spiritual sensing.
He... he seemed to have completely vanished from the world!
"Not good, everyone be careful!" Zhao Sheng suddenly had a terrifying suspicion, his expression changed drastically, instinctively transmitting a warning to fellow Daoists.
Simultaneously, Xie Jue Nan's expression also changed dramatically, instantly transforming into light to flee, while splitting into thirty-two identical figures darting in all directions.
Nonetheless, Zhao Sheng's warning was a step too late.
A sudden scream came from deep within the northern five-colored sandstorm.
The scream abruptly halted, following which the sandstorm dispersed, falling with a howl.
At this moment, a blinding sword light pierced through the sandstorm like lightning, darting above Zhao Sheng, followed by the worried voice of Emperor Tianjian: "Be careful! That monster possesses the ability to phase shift! Ji Yun has already died by his hands."
This revelation shocked the hearts of Zhao Sheng, Xie Jue Nan, Dragon-fishing Elder, and the nine Heavenly Pillar Transformations, their fear greatly amplified!
For phase shifting is the most significant hallmark of a Half-Immortal of the Void, and in the eyes of most Cultivators, phase shifting is akin to "instantaneous movement."
Zhao Sheng's phase shifting talent is essentially a reduced version of the "instantaneous movement" divine skill.
Emperor Yi, as a backup prepared early by the Blood God, unexpectedly possessed some special abilities of the Returning to Void level at the Divinity Transformation Limit.
Compared to the palpable anxiety among the Tianzhu Realm's side, Ju Mang, Ghost Ancestor, and the four others were instantly overjoyed, counter-attacking their opponents to prevent any escapes.
At that moment, a figure appeared suddenly behind the Dragon Serpent Emperor, reaching out with a jade-like right hand to casually press on the emperor's back.
Emperor Yi was expressionless, exceedingly indifferent, his right hand seemingly lightly grasping, yet deeply piercing into the Dragon Serpent Emperor.
The Dragon Serpent Emperor, with a body tempered by thousands of years of sacrificial refining, supposedly impervious to water and fire with a Vajra Body, comparable to a top-grade defensive magical treasure, had dragon scales as fragile as paper pierced effortlessly.
"Ah, spare... spare me!" The Dragon Serpent Emperor, as if having its life gate squeezed, instantly turned pale and listless, its infinite strength having disappeared.
With a smile, Emperor Yi ignored the plea for mercy, his right arm abruptly swelled, bursting with blinding blood light.
"Stop!" Zhao Sheng roared, white light surged ahead, swiftly forming a silver-white small bow.
The bowstring was suddenly drawn into a full moon, gathering nine silver-white light arrows.
Immediately the bow twanged, the nine light arrows flashed and vanished!
In the next instant, the void above Emperor Yi's head blurred, the nine light arrows from nowhere descended, heading directly for the Six Yang Heads.
Yet, with a flicker, Emperor Yi's form suddenly disappeared once more.
"There!" The Heavenly Sword rang out, the sword light darting like a ghost, instantly appearing behind Zhao Sheng, fiercely slashing at a hand reaching from the void!
Snap!
Blood light spatters, a powerful force came as the Heavenly Sword's body was forcefully repelled, yet it managed to leave a three-inch deep sword wound on Emperor Yi's right hand.
Yet, in the blink of an eye, the wound rapidly healed as if new.
Witnessing this scene, Xie Jue Nan and others couldn't help but feel utter despair; against such overwhelmingly powerful and nearly undying creatures, sheer numbers avail nothing!
In the spiritual sensing of the Divinity Transformation True Monarchs, Emperor Yi was ethereal and elusive like a ghost, unseen and unnoticed.
His form floated unpredictably, appearing extremely graceful yet exceedingly bizarre.
At this moment, the True Monarchs were horrified to see the Dragon Serpent Emperor's massive form quickly shrivel, soon becoming a mere dried corpse, before the body transformed into streams of pure essence, merging into Emperor Yi.
Such terrifying sights made all witnesses' hairs stand on end in utmost fear.
No one would ever want to experience such a dreadful death!
Dragon-fishing Elder, Xie Jue Nan, Heavenly Termination Immortal and others, all of extraordinary wit, immediately realized that even fleeing would only lead to being picked off one by one.
Therefore, there's no need for any reminder.
As the Dragon Serpent Emperor and Ji Yun were successively absorbed by Emperor Yi, the remaining Heavenly Pillar Transformations simultaneously retreated, swiftly regrouping.
The Pig Emperor rolled into the air, immediately reverting to human form, retreating beside Zhao Sheng, standing back to back.
Having been together for more than a year, the Pig Emperor knew Zhao Sheng's prowess well, and along with his millennia-long friendship with Zhao Xuanjing, he naturally joined.
Simultaneously, other Divinity Transformation True Monarchs also grouped in pairs or trios, forming defensive formations to face the great enemy!
In an unspoken accord, the eight Heavenly Pillar Transformations each occupied a position; their energies interconnected, subtly forming a united front.
