Chapter 790
Battle Against a Late-Stage Venerable
The terrifying collision suddenly erupted, and the extreme energy caused all the laws to become chaotic and unstable. Then, it seemed to coalesce into a single point, enough to annihilate everything.
Fortunately, the place they chose was a dark star field with no planets or stars, so even if a battle broke out there, there wouldn't be much damage.
Jiang Shu suddenly stood up, and one after another, the Venerable Ones rose into the air to protect the area around Star City.
At that moment, a series of chilling mental fluctuations suddenly emanated from the sky.
"We've finally found you! It's been quite a search."
"Have you considered the price you'll pay to uncover the secrets of that time?"
"You will all die here!"
In an instant, behind the gray-white aura of destruction, countless streams of lead-gray light appeared.
The stream of light, like venomous snakes, suddenly stretched and twisted, eventually forming a chaotic and vast spatial web that occupied most of the field of vision.
In the distance, figures hidden beneath dark shadows stood tall amidst the starry sky.
"Doomsday Cult!"
Jiang Shu spoke softly, uttering these three words.
They chose to establish their experimental field in this dark star region precisely to prevent the Doomsday Cult from tracking them down; they just hadn't expected that the cult would be able to pursue them.
The many Venerable Ones present immediately took action, using their respective spatial powers to shatter and distort the large net in an instant.
However, this was merely an appetizer.
In the distance, a dark figure slowly approached, inconspicuous.
An aura of destruction emerged, instantly enveloping the dark figure.
The dark shadow continued to grow larger and expand rapidly in their vision, and when the many Venerables saw that sight, they were immediately astonished.
It was a star, enormous in size, with an aura of destruction imprinted on its surface using special methods.
At this moment, as the star disintegrated, it was being driven towards them by the powerful beings of Doomsday Illumination. The momentum was overwhelming and extremely brilliant, exuding an extreme aura of destruction, as if it wanted to completely annihilate them and the entire star city under this starry sky!
"That's quite a grand gesture..."
Jiang Shu couldn't help but sigh inwardly, and then immediately joined the other experts in attacking.
He swayed behind him, and then appeared a figure wielding an axe, exuding a wild and domineering aura that seemed to look down upon the ages.
Faced with the opponent's attack that drove the stars at breakneck speed, Jiang Shu took a deep breath, and the Pangu figure behind him suddenly swung his giant axe.
In an instant, the Great Dao of Power resonated with all things in heaven and earth, surging to its extreme, and with an aura of annihilating all things and destroying the universe, it slashed towards that star.
In that instant, as he struck, a star shattered into countless fragments.
A ferocious burst of blood-red light suddenly erupted, originating from the very center of the asteroid.
The shattered star suddenly erupted with massive amounts of corrosive liquid, and countless wisps of gray mist spread outwards.
Seeing this, Jiang Shu was naturally extremely vigilant.
It should be noted that these smog and corrosive liquids could probably even contaminate the mechanical matrix.
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Shu's aura suddenly surged, and the repulsive force spread in all directions.
For a moment, the fog and corrosive liquid seemed to be blocked, unable to get any closer.
But at that moment, bursts of laughter echoed through the starry sky!
The laughter was incredibly eerie, spreading through the vacuum, carrying disdain and sarcasm.
"Gentlemen, this is merely a small gift to mark our meeting; the main course is yet to come!"
In an instant, the many powerful figures present suddenly realized that a massive number of corpses were hidden within that star.
The corpses floated in the thick, foul-smelling liquid, constantly emitting hideous colors. In an instant, the corpses seemed to regain their life and slowly crawled up!
At this moment, one of the powerful members of the Doomsday Cult who had previously been pushing the star suddenly raised his hand and grabbed, and a huge banner suddenly appeared in the middle!
The banner was painted with countless ferocious faces, like vengeful ghosts, inspiring fear in all who beheld it.
Furthermore, an inexplicable aura of destruction emanated from it.
Big Doomsday Banner!
One of the most famous treasures of the Doomsday Cult, it can enhance its power through massive slaughter and destruction.
At this moment, the power of the Great Doomsday Banner in the black-robed man's hand even made the Venerable One tremble with fear.
It is unknown how many lives were lost there.
"kill."
The black-robed figure suddenly waved the Great Doomsday Banner, and the laws of the soul spread out, instantly attacking all the powerful figures of the three races present.
Soul Tide!
In the blink of an eye, many powerful figures were affected, even the most powerful late-stage Venerables were slightly dazed.
"Hold fast to your spirit, don't give them a chance!"
Jiang Shu immediately spoke up.
He withstood the effects of the Great Doomsday Banner and immediately spoke.
His shout suddenly resounded in all directions, spreading in all directions, and many venerable ones responded at this moment.
Meanwhile, corresponding changes are taking place again.
The numerous corpses of powerful beings from the star they had previously brought back came to life at this moment, lost their minds, and charged towards the camps of the humans, machines, and insectoids!
These corpses were of all shapes and sizes, including some enormous astral giants.
The mechanical race's consciousness immediately changed, and one pipe after another extended from his body, directly connecting to the star city below.
This place had long been modified by their mechanical race, naturally to store a massive amount of weapons just in case.
At that moment, more weapons were instantly unleashed, the mechanical roars rose silently, and a dazzling spectacle, like a meteor shower, suddenly erupted, directly slaying the resurrected corpses.
In an instant, a large number of corpses were blasted into dust. However, some powerful corpses withstood the attack and were quickly restored by the massive amount of Netherworld energy around them.
At the same time, a large number of insects flew out and began to continuously devour the surrounding Netherworld Qi.
Although the three races both cooperate and oppose each other, anyone who tries to take over their territory will have to consider the wrath of the three races.
And now, the Doomsday Cult is exactly what they want.
Jiang Shu stepped into the void of the universe, his eyes shifting slightly, instinctively sensing that this might not be so simple.
At the same time, a figure in black robes suddenly attacked him.
Jiang Shu clearly sensed that this was an acquaintance—Fen Wu!
The powerful Netherworld warrior who had initially come to assassinate him under the guise of a challenge reappeared before him.
"Die!" Jiang Shu sneered, brandishing his Desolate Star Halberd and launching a sudden attack.
The laws of the Great Dao of Power transformed into divine runes, imprinted on the Desolate Star Halberd.
The two clashed violently, and a hideous wound suddenly appeared on Fenwu's body.
Even the Netherworld Clan, whose physical strength is extremely powerful, suffered considerable injuries after taking Jiang Shu's attack head-on.
He stepped into the air and suddenly began to fight Fenwu, the two sides battling endlessly.
In the blink of an eye, the two sides had exchanged hundreds, thousands, and tens of thousands of moves.
At this moment, the other powerful figures wanted to come forward to help, but the awakened corpses rushed forward one by one, stopping them.
As for Zhan Jiuxiao, the peak Venerable, the Queen Mother's personal guard, and the mechanical race's divine envoy, they were about to make a move when they were immediately stopped by other powerful figures.
"Our Doomsday Cult has many experts and profound resources, so why would we be afraid of your three races?"
A figure in black robes slowly appeared and stood directly in front of Zhan Jiuxiao.
"Get out of here!"
Zhan Jiuxiao roared and howled, his body bursting with countless bolts of lightning, like a thunder god charging towards the man in black robes.
In the blink of an eye, the man in black robes was torn to pieces, but there was no flesh or blood, only pieces of black robes fluttering in the air.
The black-robed figure reappeared in the distance in the next instant.
Nearly eighty-one ancient bronze lamps had appeared around him!
The eerie green flames suddenly spread outwards in all directions, drawing in the shattered and broken aura of the surrounding underworld energy, which then merged into the flames.
The invisible and intangible corrosive power spread out, and even the strongest could only detect it with the faintest senses.
At that moment, a Venerable of the Mechanical Race trembled slightly, and a wisp of gray suddenly spread from the mechanical battle body imbued with the power of laws.
Although it started as just a wisp, in the blink of an eye, a large part of his body was already shrouded in gray.
call!
Within the mechanical body, countless wisps of gray mist erupted in all directions, instantly covering the entire area.
"He's already been poisoned?! Retreat!"
"Seal it off! You and I must forcibly seal off this space as soon as possible!"
"We absolutely cannot let that thing spread!"
Due to their physical condition, the Machine Race is completely immune to most toxins, but the Doomsday Cult has created anti-inorganic toxins that even the Machine Race cannot resist.
The mechanical body, already tainted, suddenly exploded, even the azure crystal shattered into pieces.
A thick, grayish-white substance reappeared on each of the fragments.
Not only that, the Doomsday Cult unleashed its various methods, specifically targeting the many powerful individuals present.
At this moment, the massive tide of souls that had occurred earlier erupted once again!
The Great Doomsday Banner suddenly burst into flames, erupting with raging gray flames and fully exploding. The massive number of souls contained within surged out and spread in all directions.
This attack was also aimed at the Mech race. Some early-stage Mech races had even begun to experience continuous system errors, and their core systems were starting to be affected.
Ultimately, the reason why the Machine Race can be called the Machine Race and not the Intelligent Machine Race is because they can possess a soul, and the soul controls the body.
The Great Doomsday Banner is now aimed at this very aspect.
"Why do these Doomsday Cult members only target the Machine Race?"
Jiang Shu's heart stirred.
Not only him, but the other powerful figures present also reacted immediately.
The Doomsday Cult's attackers targeted the Machine Race.
"Get out of the way!"
In an instant, a massive swarm of insects erupted from the star city.
This was a reserve force that the Zerg had stored here long ago as a precaution, and now it surged out, surrounding the many powerful mechanical beings.
A massive amount of gray mist continued to spread, and it was forcefully blocked from the countless swarms of insects, even though many of the insects perished.
At the same time, the corpses of those Venerable-level beings suddenly erupted and fought a fierce battle with everyone.
One after another, the Venerable Ones struggled to resist; even though they had anticipated the attack, it was still quite difficult for them.
At this very moment, Jiang Shu was still fighting against Fen Wu.
Both sides launched continuous attacks, using speed to counter speed, and each collision was like a clash of stars, surging to the extreme.
In the next instant, the two sides clashed with a punch, the Law of Power and the Law of Destruction collided, pure against extreme, and a terrifying wave swept out in all directions.
boom!
Jiang Shu was sent flying backwards, then hovered in the cosmic starry sky, his gaze unfathomable, before throwing another punch!
In an instant, countless purple lightning bolts condensed on his fist, and a ferocious dragon claw seemed to appear behind him!
At the same time, the phantom of the Bashe snake, like a tattoo, lay on Jiang Shu's body, and his aura suddenly increased.
"These are the methods you've been hiding?"
Fenwu's gaze was deep and unfathomable. With his profound understanding, he could naturally tell that Jiang Shu was using extremely high-quality techniques, which would be considered top-secret secrets even by powerful clans like the War Alliance or the Mechanical Race.
"die!"
Jiang Shu had no intention of wasting words with the other party and suddenly threw a punch, while the real dragon behind him also swung its claws.
In that instant, countless cracks suddenly appeared in the void where Fenwu was, as if it had been torn apart by a dragon claw.
This powerful Netherworld Clan expert, at the late stage of his cultivation, was shrouded in Yin and Yang energy, yet he still managed to block the attack.
However, after blocking this attack, the murderous aura on his body immediately thinned out considerably.
"kill."
Jiang Shu shouted loudly, and the laws around his body surged, some of which were already reaching their limits and undergoing endless sublimation.
He rushed forward again, unleashing a series of powerful techniques.
Before them, Fen Wu leaped high into the air, unleashing a torrent of ferocious energy that spread outwards, delivering an absolute destructive blow!
The two clashed again, and Fen Wu's pale eyes flashed with a fierce light, as an aura of destruction poured out from his body.
In the next instant, Jiang Shu was sent flying backward, with wounds appearing on his body. At the same time, dark blue eerie patterns seemed to crawl up his body, as if trying to erode him.
At this moment, Jiang Shu's face also became twisted and ferocious, as if he was enduring extremely terrible pain.
In the distance, Fenwu's injuries were not as complicated as his; they were simple—a huge hole suddenly appeared in his chest, with countless flesh and blood threads trying to fill it again, but something seemed to be preventing him from healing.
Jiang Shu remained calm and spoke with a cold smile:
"A late-stage Venerable Realm cultivator's strength is only average." (End of Chapter)
