Chapter 764: Summoning the Dragon Emperor, Demon Gods Descended (I)

"Next comes the second slash."

Tarorya stood amid the boundless black sea of fire. Behind her, a surge of crimson light gathered onto her saber, and her aura suddenly took on a sacred quality.

A vague vision of a heavenly kingdom emerged within the spreading red radiance—mountains stretching endlessly, rivers winding gracefully, countless living beings thriving and multiplying in perfect happiness.

Yet, the moment that paradise-like kingdom appeared, Chen Chu inexplicably sensed an intense aura.

Clearly, Tarorya had not given up and sought to subdue him through overwhelming force. Chen Chu couldn’t help but feel a little speechless. He never imagined that he would one day catch the eye of a Purgatory Demoness.

Crack! Crack!

Chen Chu’s figure slowly shrank, and in just the blink of an eye, his true form had compressed down to a hundred meters. The three faces merged into one, and the four thunderous, fiery arms behind him retracted, leaving only a single golden light wheel slowly spinning behind his head.

In his past battles against enemies, it often appeared as though Chen Chu had defeated the strong while being weak, but in truth, he had always crushed the weak with overwhelming strength, shattering his foes with forces even grander and vaster than their own.

However, facing an awakened peak great demon king whose cultivation realm and true battle power were both far superior, his seemingly vast and intricate power of laws crumbled at the slightest touch.

Tarorya had fused all of her strength into one, creating her own demonic palace through her major laws' ultimate techniques and unleashing even greater power—nearly pushing certain forces to their extreme.

In truth, Chen Chu had already noticed this issue long ago. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have created new killing moves when he broke through to the Eighth Heavenly Realm.

It was just that his cultivation had advanced too rapidly, leaving little time for refinement, and so he had only managed to create four techniques: the Heavenly Flame Dragon Burial, the True Lightning Slash, the Abyssal Collapse, and the Grand Burial.

Among these, only the Grand Burial involved the power of three different laws.

Phew!

Chen Chu exhaled slowly. Gazing at Tarorya, who stood over seven hundred kilometers away like a demon king bent on destroying the world, the origin of his Law of Power shook violently within him as he forcibly unified the powers of five major laws.

"Illusory Sea, Annihilation!" a cold, indifferent voice echoed across heaven and earth.

The saber in Tarorya’s hand unleashed endless red light, blazing like a laser beam across the sky and dyeing the entire world in red.

Not just space, but even the laws of heaven and earth turned scarlet. Even the invisible barriers surrounding Chen Chu were pierced through by the red radiance.

Chen Chu’s consciousness wavered slightly.

Screech!

A Mercedes sedan on the road braked sharply. The driver stuck his head out and cursed at Chen Chu, who stood unmoving at the roadside. "You trying to die, not looking when crossing the street?"

The light at the intersection was green, but the driver, seemingly in a rush as if racing to give birth, had been about to speed through before pedestrians could step onto the crosswalk.

While the driver hurled insults at Chen Chu, the surrounding onlookers eagerly pulled out their phones, some even egging the situation on by shouting, "Fight him! Come on, fight!"

Yet Chen Chu ignored them. Instead, he stared at the familiar scene before him and the laptop he carried in his hand with a hint of awe.

Such a powerful illusion art, to be able to act directly upon the soul. It’s able to interfere with even my consciousness... or perhaps this isn’t just an illusion, but rather a real, temporary world.

A fragment of a temporarily existing plane, where these people and things briefly lived.

Through another pair of eyes, Chen Chu saw two overlapping layers of reality. One was the Earth of his previous life, filled with towering skyscrapers. The other, a sealed land bathed in endless crimson radiance, where a saber light thousands of meters long was silently slashing toward him.

Along its edge, black radiance flickered. Space split open wherever the saber passed, forming a black rift that continued to spread, tearing apart the sky.

"Are you fucking deaf?" the driver roared furiously. "Good dogs don’t block the road! Get the hell out of the way!"

At that moment, however, golden flames erupted from Chen Chu’s body. He became like a rapidly expanding star, annihilating everything in his surroundings.

Boom!

As the flames reached hundreds of thousands of degrees Celsius, the air exploded outward. Wherever they passed, everything was vaporized and obliterated—whether it was the Mercedes, the driver, the crowd of bystanders, or even the entire world itself. Everything collapsed and shattered.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As the golden flames, capable of burning the heavens and boiling the seas, expanded without limit, the crimson radiance dissolved, the ground exploded, and countless tons of earth transformed into molten lava and flung outward in all directions. The entire sealed world trembled violently.

Emitting endless light and heat, the golden sun with a diameter of thirty kilometers compressed into a colossal halberd of golden fire, soaring into the sky.

Four sequence chains formed coiling and dancing fire dragons around the magnificent halberd. With the infusion of the Law of Power, it radiated a scorching heat that shook the heavens and earth.

The flaming halberd collided with the saber light. Though the two forces only struggled against each other briefly, the red saber glow still managed to slice through the halberd, yet at that very instant, blinding light exploded forth like a star going supernova.

Boom!

The extreme enhancement of the Great Heavenly Sun Flame Law’s ultimate technique unleashed a devastating force. The sun’s explosion obliterated the red saber light in an instant, reducing it to countless golden beams that blasted through heaven and earth.

The heavens collapsed and the earth shattered from the immense destructive shockwave. The tectonic plates of the land were torn apart, destroying everything within a range of over two hundred kilometers, while massive rifts continued to spread outward.

Beyond this realm, the figures of the seven demon kings wavered constantly. They hurriedly poured their origin into the demonic banners to stabilize the seal and block the shockwave.

Fortunately, Tarorya understood that the objective was only to seal Chen Chu. She carefully controlled her strength, ensuring that her attack didn’t impact the black curtain encircling the world.

At the bottom of a massive pit over a hundred kilometers wide and more than a dozen kilometers deep, fierce winds howled. Chen Chu, clad in black-and-red scale armor with dragon horns sprouting from his head, slowly rose into the air. Lava streamed down his body, and his battle will burned ever hotter.

Gazing at Tarorya, he slowly said, "Your Sky-Scorching Demonic Scripture... doesn't seem strong enough."

Though he had been on the defensive after two exchanges, he had used his indestructible true form to block Tarorya’s attacks head-on. Even when struck and driven into the earth by the lingering force of her last strike, his vitality only surged violently, rather than collapsing.

Moreover, in the midst of his clash with Tarorya, he had faintly glimpsed a path to fusing and creating his own ultimate technique. The move he had just unleashed was a preliminary attempt.

"You truly are the human who has caught my eye," Tarorya said coldly. "Since that's the case, I’ll show you what true limit-breaking power looks like."

Boom!

With a low rumble, Tarorya’s aura surged violently. In the black sea of fire, thick black flame pillars, each thousands of meters wide, shot up into the sky, shaking heaven and earth.

Crack! Crack!

Black spikes erupted from Tarorya’s body. Her purple hair whipped wildly in the storm, and behind her, a rift tens of thousands of meters long silently split open. A force from the abyss descended, and Tarorya’s aura surged once again.

However, unlike the other demon kings who drew upon the dark-red Abyssal Force, the force Tarorya summoned was thick and pitch black, as though it originated from the deepest depths of the abyss itself.

When it engulfed Tarorya, her form completely vanished, as if she dissolved into nothingness. At the same time, the black sea of fire churned violently, disturbed by the eruption of countless black flame pillars.

Boom!

The sealed world, spanning more than a thousand kilometers, trembled violently, cracked, and split apart. Through the ruptured dark sea of flames, a saber light burning with black fire descended from the heavens.

Through the shattered darkness, a faint silhouette could be seen—an enormous phantom, tens of thousands of meters tall, standing imposingly and radiating a supreme, boundless aura.

Facing Tarorya’s strongest slash, the Abyssal Annihilation—a strike unleashed with her supreme True Heavenly Rampage Demon Form and fusing two high-level laws—Chen Chu was instantly overwhelmed.

Boom!

The void exploded. Time and space shuddered. Mountains collapsed, and the earth split apart. Power, matter, laws, and space itself were all severed in two, and a massive rift continued to spread outward.

That single strike nearly cleaved the entire world apart, carving out a rift nearly a thousand kilometers long, dozens of kilometers wide, and unfathomably deep.
