Chapter 371: The Invincible Chen Chu, Arrival of Kings, Battle of Gods and Demons (I)

"

Roar!

A divine inscription transformation! No wonder Kaotoros’ avatar couldn't kill you."

All nine pairs of Akunus’ eyes revealed a heavy seriousness as Chen Chu stepped into the Eighth Heavenly Realm like an unparalleled fierce dragon.

Chen Chu emitted a menacing aura as he replied in a low, rumbling voice. "Today, you will also fall under my halberd."

As he spoke, the halberd in his hand shone with golden light, instantly expanding to eight meters in length. The shaft grew as thick as a thigh, and the double-edged blade at the top reached one and a half meters wide.

Such a massive and crude weapon made countless people widen their eyes and drop their jaws in shock. Chen Hu especially couldn’t help but shout out from where he was watching the livestream upstairs. "Mom, come quickly! Brother's weapon just got huge!"

Zhang Xiaolan, who had just come home from work and was about to start cooking, looked up in puzzlement. "What got huge?"

"The weapon, Mom! Come quickly! Brother's become so powerful, he's going to fight a monster!"

As Chen Hu watched the livestream with excitement, an explosion erupted from a collapsing hillside in the distance, and Li Daoyi emerged, covered in dust.

Glancing at the colossal nine-headed blood python, he grimaced and shouted to the transformed Chen Chu, "Brother Chu, I'll leave that to you. I'll protect Sister Ruoyi and the others!"

Chen Chu's voice rumbled once more. "Alright."

As soon as he finished speaking, blue lightning leaped from Chen Chu's body, causing the ground within a ten-meter radius to collapse. In a flash, he vanished from his spot.

Roar!

The python let out an enraged roar. In its left-front direction, its corrosive blood-mist domain instantly collapsed under the golden halberd.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Chen Chu, engulfed in golden-red blood flames, forcefully shattered the surrounding domain with absolute power, appearing beneath the python in a flash.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

The furious blood python roared, its nine now-recovered heads lunging at Chen Chu like serpents from the sea.

Boom! Boom!

Chen Chu's halberd swept across with unmatched might. The atmosphere shattered, and two of the massive python heads blew apart as he immediately disappeared again.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Three enormous heads crashed down from the sky and exploded into blood light upon impact, causing the ground to collapse within a hundred-meter radius and sending shockwaves sweeping across several hundred meters.

After losing their target, the remaining four heads opened their mouths in rage and spewed blood-red beams that chased Chen Chu, bombarding the ground and blasting it apart as they went.

"Watch out!"

Li Daoyi swung his long sword, and two sword wheels formed from thunderbolts crossed in front of Yan Ruoyi and the others, using sword qi to distort space and divert the beam.

Boom!

The beam swept past, causing buildings a hundred meters away to explode.

This special technique, created by humans to counter the energy breath of colossal beasts, could influence the trajectory of such breaths unless the gap in power was insurmountable.

Chen Chu dodged the two blood-red beams aimed at him. The beams scoured the ground, leaving two gorges in their wake before crashing into a distant hillside.

"Run!"

"Be careful!" The faces of the dozens of cultivators watching the spectacle on the mountain changed drastically.

Boom! Boom!

A violent explosion caused half of the hillside to collapse.

Within the blood-filled domain, the golden halberd shot into the sky, flashing like lightning, causing the two heads of the blood python to explode in an instant.

Roar!

With only two heads remaining, Akunus let out an enraged roar and lunged at Chen Chu in the air, the heads moving at supersonic speed.

Flame wings unfurled behind him, and he used the momentum from the blast to twist in mid-air, narrowly avoiding the two heads' intersecting bites.

At that moment, however, the void twisted, and the python’s thick tail pierced through at supersonic speed, appearing directly below Chen Chu. White air waves rolled, annihilating everything in their path.

Chen Chu, unable to dodge, crossed his halberd to block.

Bang!

The python’s strike was powerful enough to collapse a hill, and Chen Chu was blasted into the sky like a cannonball, reaching over a thousand meters high in an instant.

Boom!

The sky and earth changed color. Chen Chu's body glowed red, transforming into a blood-red hell covering a fifty-meter radius. Behind him, the six-armed phantom reappeared, drawing in transcendent energy.

Two colossal beast phantoms also appeared in the surrounding space. One, as tall as a mountain, resembled an elephant with draconic features and scales, radiating a domineering and sacred aura that suppressed heaven and earth.

The other beast projection was much more indistinct, its form unclear. Though it was smaller than the Divine Might Dragon Elephant, it exuded an even fiercer aura.

Roar! Roar!

Entangled in Divine Might, and empowered by the Dragon Emperor's strength and the Blood Sea Domain, Chen Chu transformed into a dazzling blood-red beam, descending from the sky with a thunderous explosion.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

Seeing the light descending from the sky, Akunus let out a furious roar, locked in place by Chen Chu’s will.

By now, the domain power had restored the destroyed heads. The nine of them intertwined, the surrounding blood-colored mist making them resemble a blood dragon soaring toward the sky.

Boom!

Amid ghostly wails and godly roars, the heads exploded one by one, followed by Akunus' massive body being pierced and shattered, spilling a rain of blood.

The halberd continued its trajectory after piercing through the python, transforming into a gold-red beam slashing the ground.

Boom!

Everyone present was deafened as the earth trembled and shattered. Li Daoyi and the six-tailed snow fox turned pale, and they unleashed all of their power to shield the people around them.

The ground hundreds of meters away boiled like the sea, with countless clumps of earth flung in all directions for hundreds of meters like cannonballs. A powerful shockwave stirred up gales that sent sand and rocks flying.

The helicopter crew, having retreated several kilometers and were now hovering a few hundred meters in the air, were dumbfounded, as were the viewers watching the livestream.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

Blood light shone from the center of the explosion site, and hideous python heads reformed from the light, letting out violent roars.

As long as the blood river remained, the blood demons were indestructible; now that he was fused with the blood river, so was Akunus.

However, the python’s aura had weakened significantly, falling from the beginning stage of the Eighth Heavenly Realm to the peak of the Seventh, and its size had shrunk to just over eighty meters.

Boom!

The violent dust dispersed, and an eight-meter-long halberd swept through the air, blasting one of the python heads apart with its immense pressure.

"

Roar!

Chu Batian!"

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Golden-red light flashed, and the rest of the heads that Akunus had just condensed instantly disintegrated. His massive body then exploded under the descending halberd.

Boom!

The halberd light, entwined around a light over twenty meters long, carved a rift in the collapsed pit, a hundred meters long and several meters wide.

Roar!

Blood light shone, and the colossal blood python reformed again. The nine slightly smaller heads were about to let out a furious roar...

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Akunus' body continued to explode. The ground collapsed, sending smoke and dust rolling, as countless stones and clods of dirt were hurled hundreds to thousands of meters away by the destructive impact.

The ground within a ten-kilometer radius trembled slightly from the massive power, and everyone stared in a dazed shock at the dust shrouding the area in the distance. The intensity of the battle within was unimaginable.

After three minutes, the earth-shattering tremors and explosions suddenly ceased. Li Long swallowed nervously. "Is it over?"

Li Daoyi slowly spoke as he felt the disappearance of the bloody aura in the distance. "It's over. The Blood God Akunus has been slain by Brother Chu."

"Phew! We finally won." Qingqiu Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief.

Yan Ruoyi, Bai Yunfeng, and Xu Xiaoqi also smiled. After all of their planning, they had finally lured out and killed Akunus.

Unfortunately, due to Akunus' fusion with the Blood River Domain, Chen Chu had ended up destroying his soul essence along with the blood python's true body.

The distant dust gradually settled, revealing a pit with a diameter of a hundred meters. Several hundred meters of the ground around it had been plowed over, crisscrossed with hundred-meter-long rifts.

Chen Chu stood at the edge of the pit, back in his normal form and leaning on his halberd. Though his aura was extremely weak, his figure remained as upright as a spear, exuding an invincible presence.

Even Chen Chu found it hard to bear the Divine Might Dragon Emperor form, which only lasted for three minutes. His true dragon power and blood aura were depleted, making him more exhausted than if he had been in a ten-day battle, even with his recent surge in strength.

Catching his breath, Chen Chu looked downward. At the bottom of the pit, the disk carrying the Blood River Domain had shattered, and the flowing blood river had disappeared, leaving only a trickle.

Immortality and indestructibility were mere illusions of insufficient power. After being slaughtered by Chen Chu hundreds of times, Akunus had exhausted the Blood River's power and could no longer condense his body, ultimately dissipating his divine soul.

However, as Chen Chu looked at the shattered disk fragments, his brows furrowed. He sensed a faint hint of danger emanating from the largest fragment.

Suddenly, a blood light flickered on it, and then surged, transforming into a hundred-meter-tall blood phantom lunging at Chen Chu. The soul form moved with indescribable speed, and everyone's ears were filled with Akunus' roar.

"Chu Batian, merge with me!"

Boom!

As Akunus' soul shadow struck Chen Chu, Li Daoyi, Yan Ruoyi, and others' faces changed drastically in the distance.

"No, it's not dead! It’s trying to take over Chu Batian's body!"

Roar!

At that moment, a terrifying dragon roar erupted from within Chen Chu, causing the heavens and earth to tremble. Following that was Akunus' frightened voice.

"No!"

Bang!

A powerful soul force erupted from Chen Chu's body, stirring a gale, as a blood moon faintly appeared in the sky.

The sudden turn of events left everyone stunned.

Is it over just like that?

Only then did Chen Chu coldly remark, "You dared to attempt a soul possession. Did you not know that even Kaotoros' demonic eyes couldn't harm me?"

Li Daoyi was somewhat impressed as he said, "I didn't expect Brother Chu to have means to counter soul attacks."

"Is it really over this time?" Xu Xiaoqi asked uncertainly.

Seeing the blood moon about to set, Yan Ruoyi nodded slightly. "The dispersal of that soul essence indicates that Akunus' soul avatar has been completely destroyed. We've won."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the employees being protected in the rear collapsed to the ground, their faces showing the relief of surviving a catastrophe.

At Qingqiu Mingyue's signal, the six-tailed white fox slowly shrank its body and tails, returning to its three-meter-long form.

As everyone surveyed the devastated land and the abandoned old city, smiles of relief spread across their faces. The battle had finally ended.
