Chapter 70: Asura's World-Destroying Slash, the Lament of the Sea God's Twilight? Ants should have the awareness of ants!
Yu Jingcheng looked at the gentle, spinning golden sphere in his palm, which actually contained the power to destroy the world.
The smile in his eyes didn't reach its depths; there was only a cruel calm.
"Since you are an ant, you should have the awareness of an ant."
Yu Jingcheng flicked his wrist, the movement elegant.
"Go."
He uttered a single word, and the "sun," only the size of a fist, suddenly left his hand.
There was no earth-shattering sound, no fancy trajectory.
It simply floated forward, its speed seemingly slow, yet it locked onto the entire space the moment it left his hand.
As it moved forward, the originally gentle golden light suddenly surged, transforming into a golden torrent that seemed almost tangible.
Carrying an absolute will to burn the eight wastelands and purify all things, it crushed towards Tang Chen and Poseidon!
At this moment, space was distorted beyond recognition by the intense heat, and the seawater surrounding Poseidon Island boiled and evaporated instantly.
The white mist was wiped away by the terrifying heat before it could even rise.
"Not good! Go all out!!"
Tang Chen's face turned deathly pale. As the God of Slaughter, his perception of danger was extremely acute.
Before that golden torrent, his prized Slaughter Domain melted away like snow meeting boiling water!
"Asura—World-Destroying Slash!!"
Tang Chen roared hysterically, his divine power burning wildly, his blood-red killing intent solidifying.
The Asura Demon Sword in his hand expanded to a hundred-meter-long giant sword, slashing fiercely at the golden light with the resolute determination to sever cause and effect.
"Poseidon—Twilight's Lament!!"
Poseidon also dared not hold back. The phantom of Poseidon behind her instantly merged with her true form. The Poseidon Trident drew a mysterious arc in the air, mobilizing the power of the entire ocean, transforming into a vast, deep blue water curtain that seemed capable of encompassing all things.
The crimson sword light merged with Tang Chen's, attempting to block this world-destroying strike.
One red, one blue, slaughter and ocean—the combined power of two peak-level first-tier gods was enough to change the very fabric of the world.
However, before Yu Jingcheng's "Sun," all these struggles seemed utterly futile.
Boom—!!!
The golden torrent collided with the red and blue barrier.
There was no expected stalemate, nor an evenly matched explosion.
There was only one-sided annihilation.
"Sizzle—"
The Asura's crimson light, capable of cleaving the heavens, upon contact with the "Sun's" divine radiance, was like cloth splashed with strong acid, emitting a corrosive sound that made one's teeth ache.
That chilling, bone-piercing killing power, which even the gods feared, was instantly "purified" by the might of the blazing sun, dissipating into wisps of smoke!
Next came Poseidon's sea god power.
The supposedly boundless, indestructible power of the sea god was utterly powerless before the extreme "Yang" attribute law.
The deep blue water curtain instantly dried up and collapsed, failing to even provide the slightest resistance.
"How...is this possible..."
Tang Chen's eyes widened, tears of blood streaming from the corners of his eyes.
He could clearly feel the divine power he had poured into the Asura Demon Sword rapidly draining away, not being consumed, but being directly erased!
Buzz—!!!
The Asura Demon Sword in his hand emitted an unprecedentedly mournful cry, its blade trembling violently, as if enduring unbearable pain and fear.
The originally dark red blade was now scorched red-hot by the terrifying heat, so hot that Tang Chen could barely hold the hilt!
On the other side, Poseidon's situation was even more dire.
The light of the Heart of the Sea God on the Trident of the Sea God dimmed to its lowest point, the trident trembling wildly, as if it were about to fly out of his hand and escape this domain dominated by the "sun."
"Pfft—!"
"Pfft—!"
Two muffled thuds sounded almost simultaneously.
Tang Chen and Poseidon's defenses completely collapsed. Although the golden torrent had been weakened somewhat, its residual power still slammed into their divine bodies.
The two peak-level first-tier gods were sent flying backward like kites with broken strings, spitting out blood that evaporated before it even hit the ground due to the intense heat.
They crashed heavily onto the plaza in front of the Sea God Temple, creating two bottomless craters in the otherwise indestructible ground.
The dust settled.
Yu Jingcheng still stood with his hands behind his back in the void. The "sun" flew back into his palm, spinning obediently, as if the earth-shattering attack just now was merely a casual doodle.
Yu Jingcheng looked down at the two disheveled figures below, a sneer playing on his lips as he gazed at the trembling Asura Demon Sword and Poseidon Trident:
"Is this all there is to the so-called 'dual swords combined'?"
"It seems I overestimated you, and overestimated these two so-called...super artifacts."
From the ruins, two figures slowly rose.
Tang Chen and Poseidon exchanged a glance, silent, yet their eyes revealed the same resolute determination.
It was the tacit understanding forged through years of companionship and shared life and death, the last vestige of dignity for top-tier powerhouses.
Since conventional methods could not shake this "Great Sun," then they would burn everything, achieving ultimate sublimation!
"Burn my Asura blood, sacrifice my killing soul!"
Tang Chen roared to the sky, his previously weakened aura suddenly surging wildly, even surpassing its peak!
Dark red flames erupted around him, the flames of his own divine soul burning away.
"Light of the Sea God, Eternal Sacrifice!"
Poseidon's expression was equally solemn. The phantom of the Sea God behind her began to burn, transforming into the purest blue divine power that surged into her body.
Boom—!
One red, one blue, two world-destroying energies converged in mid-air.
It was no longer a simple fusion, but rather a near-self-destructive collapse and explosion.
It transformed into a chaotic, world-destroying pillar of light, carrying the two's lifelong beliefs, and hurtled towards Yu Jingcheng in the sky!
This attack even tore apart the barrier of space, revealing the dark void turbulence.
Facing this desperate, all-or-nothing attack, Yu Jingcheng's expression remained calm, only a faint hint of mockery appeared in his eyes.
"An ant trying to shake a tree, though brave... is foolish."
Yu Jingcheng's thoughts stirred slightly, and the golden light that had been flowing around him suddenly solidified.
"Sun God Armor."
Buzz—!
With a clear, resonant hum, a set of dazzling golden armor, seemingly forged from the core of a star, erupted with brilliant light, covering Yu Jingcheng's entire body.
Ancient and noble flame patterns flowed across the armor, each pattern radiating an aura of royalty that commanded the submission of all things.
The chaotic pillar of light, powerful enough to pierce the heavens and earth, slammed fiercely into the Sun God Armor.
However, the anticipated explosion did not occur.
The world-destroying energy, upon contact with the Sun God Armor, vanished like a mud ox entering the sea, failing to even stir a ripple. It was completely devoured and assimilated by the golden flames flowing across the armor, ultimately becoming part of its radiant light.
