Chapter 765 List of Victims
Chaos Wuling and Pangu, both supreme powerhouses of the Genesis Divine Nation, hold strength at the peak of the Heavenly Venerate level, and both hail from the Chaotic Giant Clan. Even within the peak of the Heavenly Venerate level, they are among the most formidable. The timing of their strike was carefully considered. The attack sequence and methods of the Divine Nations Alliance, including the specific techniques to use, had all been predetermined, and it was the Divine Oracle Zhibei who made this decision. From the moment the Primordial Honor appeared and attacked Hong Che, Zhibei was tirelessly calculating their moves.
Although the Primordial Honor's physical body and soul were not of this universe, making it impossible for Zhibei to foresee even the slightest trace of him in his calculations, Zhibei could still predict the moves of the Divine Nations Alliance. Through relentless calculations, he deduced every conceivable battle strategy and identified the one with the least casualties. He then continuously adjusted the variables to come up with the final and most advantageous combat strategy.
This exhaustive analysis was incredibly demanding, and Zhibei wouldn't use it unless absolutely necessary. The complexity of the calculations was beyond the imagination of ordinary people, and in the end, Zhibei was using his life force to continue the calculations. Fortunately, he still arrived at a result. Although the casualties were still significant, it was the best possible outcome among countless futures and possibilities. This strategy required sacrifices, but Zhibei's efforts made these sacrifices manageable.
According to Zhibei's final projections, some members of the Divine Nations Alliance would survive the battle, while others would fall. Most projections showed the entire alliance, including Xi Zhao's team, being annihilated. This just proved that there was a slim chance of victory, but still a chance. After selecting this hopeful future, Zhibei pushed the calculations further, focusing on minimizing casualties while defeating the Primordial Honor. He successfully derived a result once more.
The final result was the current combat strategy Zhibei had chosen, which required certain people to die. Zhibei managed the list of sacrifices to minimize changes. After explaining the situation to everyone and a brief discussion, the list of sacrifices was set. This discussion was conducted via Divine Sense directly in everyone's mind. The primary names on the list were Rogue Heart Sword Hero and Po Jun, followed by Ling Yi. Overlord was not on the list. Fortunately, Rogue Heart Sword Hero, Po Jun, and Ling Yi were all severely injured but not immediately dead, while Overlord's life was precarious.
Thus, during the fourth wave of the attack, Chaos Wuling and Pangu rushed behind the Primordial Honor as quickly as possible. Wuling served as support, launching the Third Form of the Chaos Five Decisions, Life Baptism, as soon as he arrived. Nine diamond chains from the Seal Heavenly Stamp immediately bound the Primordial Honor. Additionally, all of Wuling's Divine Sense surged out, and although he couldn't bind the heavens like Sun Wukong, he could momentarily restrain the Primordial Honor.
Indeed, with the combined restrictions of the diamond chains and Wuling's Divine Sense, as well as the Life Baptism, the Primordial Honor was successfully immobilized. Pangu seized the opportunity, infusing his enormous pulse axe with the full power of the final form of Chaos Five Decisions, Heaven and Earth as One. The axe emitted a terrifying energy fluctuation, and just a touch threatened to unleash its enormous power, an attack of catastrophic proportions.
Without hesitation, Pangu swung the pulse axe with full force at the Primordial Honor's neck. Everyone halted, shocked by the pulse axe's devastating attack power. The instant it struck, the overwhelming power silenced the crowd, evoking the sensation of standing at the mouth of an erupting volcano. No one believed they could escape unscathed from such an attack.
In the next moment, Pangu let out a deep shout, and the amassed dreadful power astonishingly vanished. The abrupt disappearance of this intimidating pressure left everyone bewildered, like seeing a lightning bolt in a stormy sky and bracing for a thunderclap that ends as a mere sneeze. Pangu's attack seemed like that. The terrifying power compressed into a line within moments. Sun Wukong, with his Heaven and Earth Fire Eyes, saw a fine line of faint white light appear on the pulse axe's blade, which cleaved the Primordial Honor's neck and disappeared into the void.
However, the others didn't see this and thought Pangu's attack had failed. After the fine line slashed through, the Primordial Honor's body shuddered as he broke free from Wuling's restraints. He quickly struck both Wuling and Pangu three times with his Sword Finger, then transformed his fingers into palms, striking them both squarely in the chest. They were sent flying into the stone mountains on either side. When they stopped, it was clear that Wuling's chest was a bloody mess, with two dark palm prints on his chest and shoulder. Pangu lay with three blood-dripping holes.
Nevertheless, neither was dead. The Primordial Honor was slightly surprised at the resilience and defensive power of the Chaotic Giant Clan's bodies, surviving even the Finger of the Gods and Annihilation Palm. Yet he had no time to finish them off because the fifth wave of attack had arrived.
Interestingly, only one person launched this attack: Wangchuan of the Myriad Gods Hall, who carried a massive Totem God Pillar on his back. Now bare-chested, his body was covered in colorful tattoos, each representing a deity, when viewed closely.
In truth, these so-called deities were simply powerful ancient beings who had died. Wangchuan's left arm bore a conspicuous totem of a Fire Phoenix, the ancestor of the Burst Phoenix Clan, Blast Heaven. Wangchuan's power derived from these deceased mighty beings, and within the Fallen Tomb, his borrowed strength was unparalleled.
This innate ability, termed Death Ruler by Wangchuan, allowed him to convert the deceased into tattoos upon himself, unharmed. It was a rare innate gift, applicable only to those at the Domain Lord Peak level or higher.
Combining this ability with the Finger of the Gods boosted his strength immensely. Currently, he channeled all his totem powers into the massive Totem God Pillar. With bulging muscles, he descended from mid-air, aiming at the Primordial Honor.
The Totem God Pillar fell with a resounding crash, spreading a divine and powerful aura. (To be continued.
