The Death of Luo Tian

"This is not the legacy of Gouchen."

As the Purple Emperor gazed at the mysterious power emanating from Luo Tian, ​​his purple-gold starry eyes rippled for the first time.

He understood Emperor Gouchen better than anyone else; even the Zhou Tian Star Array was originally created to suppress Emperor Gouchen.

What Luo Tian was using was definitely not the forbidden secret technique of Emperor Gouchen.

This is a power unique to Luo Tian.

Yet it can contend with the Zhou Tian Star Array.

Unbelievable.

"This is certainly not the legacy of Emperor Gouchen; it is a power specifically sought to counter the Zhou Tian Star Array."

Despite looking like a dying man, Luo Tian still managed to force a smile.

"The prototype of the Zhou Tian Star Formation is one of the three great ancient killing formations, but that does not mean it is invincible. The best way to deal with this supreme killing formation is naturally to use another supreme killing formation."

"So it was the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation."

The Purple Emperor, with a cold and solemn expression, revealed the secrets of heaven in a single sentence.

The three ancient killing formations.

One of them is the Zhuxian Sword Formation, which requires the four Zhuxian swords to be set up. It is the most powerful offensive sword formation in the world, and it disappeared into the long river of history along with the four Zhuxian swords.

The second is the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Array, a protective array of the ancient Heavenly Court. It can gather the power of all the stars in the heavens, and its power is strong enough to destroy the world. The Ziwei Emperor recreated this array by commanding the stars.

The third is the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation, which was created by the ancient witch clan to counter the Zhou Tian Star Formation. It requires the original power of the twelve ancestral witches to be used, and its lineage was eventually cut off with the successive deaths of the twelve ancestral witches.

"I never imagined you would get it."

The Purple Emperor spoke in a calm tone.

"Although I do not know where you obtained this formation, you are merely a human without the bloodline of the Twelve Ancestral Witches. Forcibly activating the killing formation will only lead to your own destruction."

"That's why I said I would kill you, even if it meant sacrificing my life."

Luo Tian participated in this battle with the determination to die from the very beginning.

He certainly knew the cost of forcibly activating the Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation.

That is death and the annihilation of one's spiritual path.

But this was exactly what he wanted.

He must die in this battle.

They learned from the experience of almost dying while portraying Professor Rhodes.

This time, Luo Tian put himself in a death-defying state right from the start, and he didn't believe that anything unexpected could happen.

"You want to die with me?"

The Purple Emperor understood Luo Tian's thoughts.

"Even if I can't completely kill you, you won't get away unscathed."

Luo Tian revealed his true colors, no longer suppressing his intense killing intent.

"I have traveled the world, traversed countless mountains and rivers, ventured deep into forbidden and dangerous places, searching for the remnants of the ancestral witches, all for this moment, this very moment!"

This is something he has been doing since he came into this world.

From Dijiang to Qiangliang, from Zhujiuyin to Shebishi.

Ten years have passed.

All for today.

"The Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Sword Formation!"

Luo Tian activated the supreme killing formation he obtained from Zhu Jiuyin with all his might.

Twelve crimson-gold array patterns appeared on his entire body, bursting forth with golden divine radiance and crimson baleful light.

These are the array patterns of the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Array.

Luo Tian once worked with the Holy Son of Tianquan to study the mysteries of the killing formation, constantly deducing and improving it. Finally, using the essence and blood of the Twelve Ancestral Witches, he successfully imprinted the killing formation into his body.

"Sword rise!"

Luo Tian suddenly summoned thirty-six Heavenly Gang Sword Lights.

The three sword lights form a group, creating twelve nodes.

Twelve different divine light runes shot out from Luo Tian's body and merged with the twelve nodes.

The metal element Ru Shou, the wood element Ju Mang, the water element Gong Gong, the fire element Zhu Rong, the earth element Hou Tu, the thunder element Qiang Liang, the wind element Tian Wu, the ice element Xuan Ming, the lightning element Xi Zi, the air element She Bi Shi, the universe element Di Jiang, the cosmos element Zhu Jiu Yin...

Using the sword as a guide, and the body as the foundation.

The phantom images of the twelve ancestral witches appear here.

Endless divine and evil power surged within Luo Tian's body.

"A clumsy imitation, a forced deployment of a killing formation—how long can you hold out?"

With a casual grab, the Ziwei Emperor grasped the Eastern Star Region in one hand, transforming it into a sky-covering azure dragon whose head and tail could not be seen, and it swooped down.

Luo Tian raised his hand and pointed, and the Wood Jumang emerged, transforming into a sky-covering divine bird, fiercely battling the Azure Dragon.

The Ziwei Emperor continued to summon the Vermilion Bird, the White Tiger, and the Black Tortoise.

Zhu Rong, Ru Shou, and Gong Gong emerged one after another to confront them.

Seeing that he could not get to Luo Tian, ​​the usually calm Emperor Ziwei's gaze wavered once again.

The phantom of Fengdu appeared behind him.

The city gates burst open with a deafening roar, releasing a chilling aura. Countless ghost messengers commanded fierce spirits and ghosts, as if the netherworld were pouring down upon the human world.

Qiangliang and Tianwu joined forces to attack, unleashing thunder and gales to resist the onslaught of the Netherworld.

Suddenly, a graceful figure appeared before Luo Tian.

She is Houtu Niangniang (Goddess of the Earth).

"Dust to dust, ashes to ashes."

Houtu gently opened her lotus-like mouth.

"The cycle of rebirth in the six realms."

A huge halo appeared from behind her.

Six beams of divine light shone brightly, illuminating the Netherworld and the Yellow Springs.

In an instant, the wailing ghosts and spirits were summoned by the cycle of reincarnation, and returned one after another to the six realms of reincarnation.

The descending ghost realm was instantly destroyed.

The Purple Emperor's star pupils trembled violently, and a wisp of blood with a purple-gold luster spilled from the corner of his mouth.

He suffered a backlash and was injured for the first time!

Looking at Luo Tian, ​​he didn't seem to be feeling well either.

The Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Sword Formation requires him to burn his life essence and lifespan to maintain it.

Houtu's attack just now directly severed Luo Tian's lifespan at the waist.

When the essence and blood are burned out, that is when Luo Tian will perish.

"How dare you, a mere ant, harm me!"

The Ziwei Emperor was furious.

When the emperor was enraged, all the stars fell.

The Zhou Tian Star Array, high in the night sky, descended, and countless stars streaked through the void, falling with a rustling sound.

The earth sank, and mountains collapsed and the ground cracked.

It looked like the end of the world.

The entire Demon Cave mini-world was torn apart.

Not only the people in the Demon Cave, but even the cultivators of the Ancient Desolate Continent felt a terrifying power capable of destroying the world.

"With such spatial tremors, could someone be undergoing tribulation to become an emperor?"

Countless cultivators were thrown into a panic.

They looked up at the sky; one second it was a bright and sunny day, and the next night had already fallen.

All the stars in the night sky were revealed, and the sun, moon, and stars revolved, covering the entire continent.

The celestial phenomena of the entire world are influenced by the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Da Zhen (a celestial array).

The Ziwei Emperor unleashed his supreme power.

Under his command, the stars in the heavens gave rise to countless demons.

The illusory figures of the twelve Ancestral Witches rushed into the formation and fought fiercely with the demons.

It felt like stepping back into the ancient era of the war between liches and demons.

"I am both God and Demon."

The Ziwei Emperor continued to deduce the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Grand Array, and the three thousand demons underwent ultimate sublimation, transforming into the three thousand gods and demons before the creation of the world.

Three thousand gods and demons, wielding the immense power of the stars, plunged the entire world into chaos.

The Purple Emperor intends to refine Luo Tian along with this entire world!

At the same time, the twelve Ancestral Witches spontaneously surrounded Luo Tian.

Their illusory figures gradually dissipated, splitting into thirty-six sword lights that formed thirty-six petals of a blue lotus, protecting Luo Tian within them.

In the chaos before dawn, three thousand gods and demons raged, but only one blue lotus was still in bud.

Luo Tian sat cross-legged on the green lotus with his eyes closed and the Enlightenment Leaf in his mouth.

With a clear and enlightened mind, one follows the natural way.

At this critical moment of life and death, he actually wanted to contemplate the past and present, trace the origins, and understand his own Tao!

"From ancient times to the present, spanning the ages; opening up the world, sweeping across the universe."

The greatest sound is silent, like a great bell resounding in the chaos.

Three thousand gods and demons were terrified.

It is neither the Dao of Emperor Gouchen nor the Dao of the Twelve Ancestral Witches.

This is the Dao of Luo Tian.

The blue lotus blooms.

Luo Tian slowly stood up.

The Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Sword Formation manifested a majestic figure that gradually overlapped with Luo Tian and merged into one.

Luo Tian drew his sword and swept it horizontally.

Chaos was divided into two.

He emerged from the chaos, carrying with him an aura of ethereal uncertainty, and pressed towards the Ziwei Emperor.

The Purple Emperor was moved.

He sensed the danger and his mindset completely changed.

He no longer regarded Luo Tian as an ant, but as the successor of Gouchen.

Instead, they are seen as a formidable opponent who can rival them on the Imperial Road.

The Ziwei Emperor is like the lord of all stars, wielding supreme power to command the stars in the heavens and crush them all.

Luo Tian strode forward with the stride of a dragon and the gait of a tiger, and a majestic, ethereal phantom appeared behind him. He then fiercely drew his sword and slashed at the void.

boom!!!

The two ancient killing formations collided, unleashing a deafening roar that shook the earth and the heavens.

The small world of the Demon Cave, along with the void itself, was completely annihilated.

Everyone on the ancient continent heard a violent roar.

It was as if a death knell was tolling for someone's demise.

Everything returns to nothingness.

……

Luo Tian floated amidst the chaotic void.

His blood and energy were depleted, and his body was crippled, like a tattered rag.

"it's over."

He won, but he's about to die.

As he lay dying, a relieved smile appeared on his lips.

The clash of the two great killing formations was as powerful as the creation of the world.

Although it is unknown whether Ye Chen and the Ziwei Emperor are alive or dead, it is certain that their path to becoming emperors has been severed.

The destruction of the Zhou Tian Stars signifies the destruction of the Purple Extreme Sacred Body.

This also means that they have lost the foundation of the Great Dao.

The predetermined fate was reversed, and Luo Tian successfully protected the sect.

Now that everyone can escape their tragic end and embrace a bright and happy future, he can finally rest in peace...

Suddenly, a faint light emanated from Luo Tian's chest.

An exquisite amulet appeared.

This is a protective talisman given to Luo Tian by the Holy Maiden of Yaochi.

Luo Tian gazed at the soft halo on the amulet, feeling its warmth, but his heart felt as if it had fallen into an ice cave, and he immediately sensed something was wrong.

He recalled the opportunity that the Holy Maiden of Yaochi had obtained in the Secret Realm of the Fallen Emperor.

The Holy Maiden of Yaochi once returned to the ancient times to contemplate the goddess Nuwa mending the sky.

Yes, patching up the sky.

No!

Luo Tian was terrified, his mind racing with internal struggle and screams.

Unfortunately, it was too late. Under the amulet's glow, his body was being repaired at a visible speed.

Holy Maiden of Yaochi, are you playing me?!

Aren't we best friends? Why do this?

You have lost me as your friend forever; our friendship is over!

In the blink of an eye, his body had returned to normal.

Luo Tian wanted to cry but had no tears.

I never imagined that we would fail at the last moment.

Fortunately, not long after, Luo Tian discovered that his body was gradually disappearing.

The cost of the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation cannot be compensated by the art of mending the heavens.

Luo Tian's tense mind relaxed, and his consciousness gradually faded away.
