Chapter 1584 The Great Battle (Part Two)
After the Blood God Sect's mid-stage Taiyi Golden Immortal expert gave the order to retreat, his figure flickered strangely, and blood mist surged around him. He transformed into a blood-colored light and shadow that tore through the sky and instantly disappeared into the vast sea of clouds, leaving not a trace of his aura behind.
The moment the Blood God Cult's Taiyi Golden Immortal fled, twelve Crimson Lotus Immortal-Slaying Swords, imbued with scorching Crimson Lotus Karmic Fire and the power of raging primordial laws, struck directly at the spot where the Blood God Cult's Taiyi Golden Immortal had just stood, leaving behind several pitch-black spatial rifts.
He raised an eyebrow, secretly thinking to himself that this Taiyi Golden Immortal of the Blood God Sect was far too cowardly, lacking even the courage to fight head-on, and actually fled without a fight.
But just as this idea took root, the situation suddenly changed!
Suddenly, layers of blood shadows appeared in the void behind him, and the pungent, putrid blood aura surged up like a tidal wave. A gigantic blood-red hand that blotted out the sky suddenly materialized from nothingness, carrying a vast and mighty power that could suppress the eight wastelands, and slammed down on his back!
What alarmed Liu Changxu even more was that the blood-red giant hand was intertwined with extremely domineering spatial and bloodline origin laws, instantly locking onto his figure.
Liu Changxu suddenly felt his blood and qi stagnate and become stagnant, and the surrounding space seemed to freeze.
Only now did Liu Changxu realize that the old demon of the Blood God Sect was not really trying to escape. He was just pretending to flee, hiding in the void, using the laws of space to conceal his aura, and quietly circling behind to launch a sneak attack!
However, even when caught off guard by the ambush, Liu Changxu remained calm and composed without the slightest panic.
In the blink of an eye, twelve Ruyi Star Beads instantly flew out of his body, rapidly transforming into enormous stars that stretched across the void, directly crashing into the oncoming crimson giant palm.
Boom—!
A deafening roar shook the heavens as a blood-red giant hand, carrying terrifying divine power, slammed down on a massive Ruyi Star Pearl. Blood light and starlight intertwined violently, stirring up a void storm that swept across billions of miles.
Taking advantage of the moment when the Ruyi Star Pearl blocked the giant palm's attack and broke free from the law's restraint, Liu Changxu's body surged with immortal light, suddenly breaking through the shackles of the space's restraining law. His figure transformed into a streak of azure light, instantly traversing the void and soaring to the clouds hundreds of millions of miles away, where he stood firmly.
When the Blood God Sect's Taiyi Golden Immortal saw that his sneak attack had missed, he showed no sign of frustration. Instead, a sinister smile flashed in his eyes.
He stood amidst the crimson clouds, raised his hand to condense boundless crimson light, and another giant crimson palm formed in mid-air, carrying even more violent power of law, once again traversing the void and slamming down towards where Liu Changxu was.
Seeing that the Blood God Sect's Taiyi Golden Immortal Old Demon had made another move, giving him no chance to restrain himself, Liu Changxu's figure vanished from the spot like a fleeting shadow.
Just as Liu Changxu's figure vanished, the enormous, blood-red hand that blotted out the sky crashed down, slamming hard into the void where he had just stood.
A deafening roar shook the universe, and the raging bloodthirsty power ravaged the heavens. The once azure void instantly collapsed, tearing open numerous crisscrossing, dark and deep spatial rifts, its power terrifying.
After narrowly avoiding the fatal blow, Liu Changxu suddenly activated the twelve Crimson Lotus Immortal-Slaying Swords that were wandering in the void. The swords rang out clearly and resounded in all directions, instantly transforming into twelve raging fire dragons. With an unparalleled power that could burn the heavens and destroy the earth, they swiftly attacked the old demon of the Blood God Sect.
At the same time, Liu Changxu made hand seals, and his vast immortal power drew upon the power of the fundamental laws of space in the void, unleashing the immortal technique "Space-Time Cage" to trap the old demon in the void.
However, this old demon from the Blood God Sect, who was at the mid-stage of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, had been immersed in the fundamental laws of space for an extremely long time, and his mastery of the fundamental laws of time and space far surpassed that of Liu Changxu. When he saw the invisible force of time and space confinement enveloping him, the old demon's body surged with blood light, and the void beneath his feet trembled slightly. He easily removed most of the restraints and quickly broke free from the confinement of the "time and space cage".
At that moment, Luo Ziyan also broke through the air and resolutely joined the battle to besiege the Blood God Cult's old demon.
She possessed an ethereal, otherworldly aura, and her understanding of the fundamental laws of space was equally profound and mysterious. With a light wave of her hand, she caused the void to shift, creating layers of spatial barriers that continuously compressed the old demon's escape space.
After joining forces with Luo Ziyan, Liu Changxu instantly reversed the unfavorable situation and firmly gained the upper hand.
Seeing that the situation was unfavorable to him, the old demon Taiyi Golden Immortal of the Blood God Sect knew that if he continued to fight head-on, he would only fall into a dead end of being surrounded. So he stopped fighting directly and instead pushed the fundamental laws of space to the extreme. His figure transformed into a blurry blood shadow, constantly shuttling and wandering in the gaps between layers of void, unpredictable and difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion.
He always maintained a subtle distance from Liu Changxu and Luo Ziyan, never engaging them in direct combat. He patiently waited for their weaknesses, and once he found an opportunity, he would launch a surprise attack. Then, regardless of the outcome, he would immediately disappear into the void and flee far away. He was cunning and extremely fierce.
Seeing how cunning and fierce the Blood God Sect's Taiyi Golden Immortal Old Demon was, Liu Changxu simply calmed down and used him as a whetstone to hone his own Taiyi Golden Immortal supernatural powers and immortal techniques.
Thus, while he was wielding the twelve Crimson Lotus Immortal-Slaying Swords and the twelve Auspicious Star Beads to contend with the Blood God Cult's Taiyi Golden Immortal Old Demon, he occasionally unleashed the Crimson Lotus Burning Heaven Palm, Crimson Lotus Soul-Destroying Divine Light, Crimson Lotus Karmic Fire, and Time-Space Cage—all newly advanced to immortal techniques—to launch the most ferocious attacks against the Blood God Cult's Old Demon.
The Crimson Lotus Burning Heaven Palm, which has just been comprehended and advanced to a celestial technique, integrates the primordial laws of the four major attributes: time, space, fire, and wood.
The moment Liu Changxu struck out with his palm, the surrounding space-time suddenly froze, and an invisible spatial confinement force instantly locked onto the target area. At the same time, the palm shadow expanded rapidly, transforming in an instant into a giant fiery palm that blotted out the sky and the sun, possessing terrifying power to destroy the world.
The Crimson Lotus Soul-Destroying Divine Light, which has been upgraded to a celestial technique, is even more terrifying in its power.
This immortal technique was developed by Liu Changxu based on his original divine power, "Red Lotus Soul-Destroying Needle." Once used, his eyes emitted a purplish-red divine light.
Its most terrifying aspect lies in its ability to ignore physical defenses, directly targeting a cultivator's primordial spirit and soul, focusing on its most vital aspect: the divine soul.
Once touched by the Crimson Lotus Soul-Destroying Divine Light, unless one's cultivation level is higher than Liu Changxu's, or one has a Xuan Tian spiritual treasure that can protect the cultivator's soul, otherwise, at best, the soul will be injured and the cultivation level will plummet; at worst, the spirit will be annihilated and both body and soul will be destroyed. It is truly insidious and domineering, making it impossible to guard against.
After a fierce battle, the Blood God Sect's Taiyi Golden Immortal Old Demon quickly felt overwhelmed. There was nothing he could do; Liu Changxu's methods were simply too powerful, and with Luo Ziyan, whose strength was similar to his own, continuing the fight would definitely put him in grave danger.
So, after barely dodging a crimson lotus soul-destroying divine light, the old demon Taiyi Golden Immortal of the Blood God Sect turned into a blood-red light and fled into the distance without looking back, and soon disappeared.
