The two figures in the mountain range, however, were still locked in a fierce battle!
"Sky God?"
"Nothing more than that!!"
Cheng Yaojin parried the Sky God's blade with an axe, standing atop a peak, and chuckled as he watched the struggling deity.
His divine power, now fully mastered after more than an hour of combat, allowed him to adapt to the blessings of the summoning platform.
"You!!"
"A warrior can be killed, but not disgraced!"
The Sky God unleashed a blade strike, abandoning defense for offense. This attack, drawing upon his twelve divine flames, left him visibly weakened. His strike, a bloodbath to all sides, caused the void's galaxy to churn violently. From the celestial river, a thousand-zhang blade radiance surged forth, its colossal edge blotting out the sky as it emerged from the river.
"Hm?"
Cheng Yaojin frowned and spoke again, "I'm merely stating the facts! What, is admitting weakness not allowed!"
"Since that is the case, I shall send you on your way. With my divine power fully controlled, you are no longer of use!"
Seeing the thousand-zhang blade radiance erupt from the galaxy, he knew the Sky God was nearing exhaustion. Now that his divine power was fully grasped, there was no need to spare him.
"Roar!"
Demonic energy ignited with layers of flames, and a Qilin divine beast broke through the miasma. Its eyes, like burning suns, caused the thousand-zhang blade radiance to crack.
Cheng Yaojin's axe, shrouded in demonic energy, blazed with Qilin divine fire the moment the beast appeared. Clad in a thousand-zhang demonic silhouette and wielding a flaming axe, he resembled a hellish demon god, striking awe into the heavens and earth, and drying up the boundless galaxy.
"Pfft!"
With the galaxy depleted, the blade's intent was halved. The collapse of the galactic phenomenon caused the Sky God's face to pale, his divine blood scattering, and his thousand-zhang blade was on the verge of shattering.
Seeing the suffering Sky God, Cheng Yaojin's golden-red divine eyes flickered slightly. With a flick of his wrist, his axe light sliced through the nine heavens, shrouded in demonic energy and divine fire. He unleashed a powerful blow, a wave of energy clearing the void. Every mountain peak above this energy wave was instantly flattened, perfectly leveled. The axe light flashed as Cheng Yaojin hurled it with all his might, sweeping upwards from below towards the weakened Sky God.
"A child's insignificant trick!"
"Boom!"
The Sky God, still struggling to maintain the thousand-zhang blade radiance with his remaining divine power, suddenly looked down in horror. Below his sight, a black and red axe light had reached him in an instant.
"What is this?"
By the time he recognized the axe light, it was too late to block.
"Boom!"
A blast of flame shot towards the sky, followed closely by the black light. A colossal roar kicked up thick dust, completely obscuring the mountain range. From afar, more than half of the ten-thousand-li mountain range was submerged in yellow sand.
"Ah!!"
"You cannot kill me!!"
A wail that pierced the divine soul erupted in unwillingness from within the black light and flames, as divine blood splattered everywhere, and pieces of flesh and bone could be clearly seen falling.
A tattered, pale blue primordial spirit escaped from the black light and flames, fleeing towards the distant horizon without a backward glance.
"Still trying to escape?"
Cheng Yaojin, watching the fleeing spirit, was quite surprised that a blow capable of annihilating a Sky God had not completely killed him, but merely shattered his physical body.
"It seems I must strike again!"
"Kill!"
Cheng Yaojin roared, and his long axe swept horizontally before him. A crescent-shaped axe light revolved in the void, enveloped in divine fire and swirling demonic energy.
"Roar!"
The Qilin divine beast roared to the heavens, its front two paws stomping on demonic energy, with black clouds rolling, sealing off the tattered primordial spirit.
The axe light, cold as an abyss, had layers of Qilin divine fire circulating upon it. Waves of killing intent enveloped the axe light and demonic energy, bombarding the fleeing primordial spirit.
The tattered primordial spirit, fleeing madly, looked down at the capital of the Blood Yuan Celestial Dynasty, now engulfed in flames, and roared in anger, "Damn it, the teleportation array is destroyed!"
"What is it?"
Suddenly, his heart jolted violently. Trembling, he looked back, his expression horrified. A divine fire led the way, followed by rolling demonic energy and flashing axe light.
"No, no, no!!"
"You cannot kill me! I am a Sky God of the An Yuan Celestial Dynasty! If you slay me, the Emperor will never let your Great Han Imperial Dynasty off!"
"...will never let your Great Han Imperial Dynasty off..."
The tattered primordial spirit roared in unwilling defiance, attempting to use the prestige of the An Yuan Celestial Dynasty to force Cheng Yaojin to cease his pursuit. As he tried to step aside to evade the fatal blow,
However, with divine fire paving the way and the Qilin divine beast locking him down in the void, how could he escape this fatal strike!
Before the戟芒 could pierce him, the divine fire enveloping the axe light directly engulfed his tattered primordial spirit, causing it to ignite.
Soon, a black axe light directly annihilated his primordial spirit. Faint, pale blue spiritual light, like firefly luminescence, flickered in the sky before extinguishing.
A Sky God of the An Yuan Celestial Dynasty had fallen above the capital of the Blood Yuan Celestial Dynasty. This was the second Sky God to perish since the battle between the Gate of Creation and the Lingxu Palace!
...
"Boom!!"
"Screech!!"
At this time, by the coast bordering the Blood Yuan Celestial Dynasty and the Sword Bone lineage, hundreds of thousands of ships were docked. Countless local beings were fleeing frantically, for the bloodthirsty aura of the approaching army was too terrifying!
"Great Han Imperial Dynasty!!"
"That is the Great Han Imperial Dynasty!!!"
Some beings had previously witnessed the awe-inspiring battle at the Blood Sea Coffin, where General Hu Yan Zan of the Great Han Imperial Dynasty had defeated the True God Yun Si in two moves in the void!
This being looked at the warships, the flag of the Great Han Imperial Dynasty fluttering in the wind. Yes, that was the flag of the Great Han Imperial Dynasty!
The Great Han Imperial Dynasty was on the boundless ocean thousands of miles away!
How was this possible?
There were only the affiliated forces of the Changhe Sect, the Shuiyue Heavenly Palace, and the Sea God Island. When had a continent or island appeared tens of thousands of miles away to provide a base for the Great Han Imperial Dynasty's forces?
The being collapsed to the ground in terror. He couldn't understand. That boundless ocean had long been cleansed countless times by General Wei Bo Ping of the Blood Yuan Celestial Dynasty. Besides the islands of the Changhe Sect, Shuiyue Heavenly Palace, and Sea God Island, there had never been a Great Han Imperial Dynasty!
"Boom!"
Millions of soldiers disembarked. Chu Li Ji and Yang Ye, riding their warhorses, surveyed the land.
"It's about time!"
Chu Li Ji looked in the direction of the Blood Yuan Celestial Dynasty's capital and spoke softly.
"It should be about time. According to General Cheng Yaojin's speed, he should have already cleared out the center of power of the Blood Yuan Celestial Dynasty."
Yang Ye held the reins and gazed into the distance.
