Chapter 802: Battle

The pupils of the Tyrant maintaining the circular confinement field dilated with shock. He exclaimed in disbelief, "The Primordial Abyss True Demon Form!"

He could sense that Li Pin's manifestation of the Primordial Abyss True Demon Form felt subtly different.

The teammate who had merged with his sword and charged at Li Pin was especially affected. His inner spirit had been completely shattered by an inner spirit secret art.

Seeing that Li Pin's Quantum Sword Intent had already taken shape, the Tyrant's internal energy stirred. He abruptly raised the ring-shaped object in his hand. "Seal!"

An invisible ripple spread out once more, its speed far beyond what "fast" could describe. It seemed to have teleported straight to where Li Pin stood.

The space around Li Pin froze. He was on the verge of being trapped, like an insect about to be sealed in amber.

But just as the ripple swept over him, Li Pin unleashed the Grand Oblivion Art.

The Grand Oblivion Art couldn't completely escape the space-freezing ripples, but once it activated, Li Pin was able to move again. At that moment, the condensed Quantum Sword Intent erupted with a burst of power.

His strike was aimed at the space ahead, where the Tyrant had merged with his sword and was now almost within reach.

Without any wasted motion, Li Pin thrust his sword forward, relying purely on brute force to pierce through.

Buzz, buzz!

The spacetime force contained within his Quantum Sword Intent slammed into the ring-shaped object, instantly locking the surrounding space in place.

For a brief moment, everything around Li Pin froze. In the next instant, the entire space shattered like a mirror.

That ring-shaped object was a Sovereign Divine Weapon, just like the Ruoxi Sword. But what truly tipped the scales was the devastating power of the fully unleashed Quantum Sword Intent. Backed by the might of a Sovereign Divine Weapon, its force surged to terrifying heights, powerful enough to crush any technique in its path. In terms of sheer strength and explosive impact, it surpassed nearly every combat art known.

The released energy, mixed with the shattered, mirror-like space, surged wildly toward the Divine Race's Tyrant, who had fallen into the void and was now on the verge of being consumed. It would take only a moment for the energy to engulf him fully.

The Tyrant controlling the ring-shaped Sovereign Divine Weapon growled. "Ya Qi!"

His voice, laced with powerful inner spirit waves, reverberated like a great bell, crashing toward the Tyrant merged with his sword, attempting to jolt him awake.

"Qiong Yu!"

At the same time, he waved his hand, sending a spatial fluctuation toward the Tyrant charging at Li Pin with the momentum of the space itself, causing his speed to surge explosively.

No further command was needed.

The Tyrant, Qiong Yu, instantly abandoned the Astral Formation he had used to maintain the spatial blockade. Like the Tyrant merged with his sword, he unleashed a speed that defied the fabric of space, appearing behind Li Pin in the blink of an eye. With a swift motion, he formed his fingers into a sword and thrust.

From the energy radiating from his fingertips, it was clear that despite the urgency, the power behind this strike was as formidable as the full-force attacks of figures like Zi Zaitian and Luo Wuji.

This demonstrated the formidable strength of these Divine Race's Tyrants.

Each of them could rival figures like Zhan Tianxiu, Xuan Chengming, and Yue Shu in the Ten Thousand Tribes Dominion War.

The only difference was their age. Having cultivated for hundreds or even thousands of eras, they could no longer participate in the competition.

The four members of the Divine Race were not only individually powerful. Their coordination was nearly flawless. Each one had a distinct role to play.

One was responsible for blocking space and overseeing the overall situation.

One specialized in casting debilitating states through inner spirit secret arts.

One wielded a sword with unmatched skill, both stunning and deadly.

And the final member used the Astral Formation to charge forward.

They were also capable of rescuing each other at critical moments.

Take this moment, for instance. If Li Pin continued to attack Ya Qi with the Quantum Sword Intent, he would undoubtedly face a thunderous strike from Qiong Yu, coming from behind. It could easily result in a life-for-a-life trade.

Despite the danger, Li Pin's expression remained unchanged. With unwavering resolve, he thrust the destructive Quantum Sword Intent directly at Ya Qi.

Ya Qi was awakened by the inner spirit secret art of the Tyrant controlling the Sovereign Divine Weapon. But by the time he did, the terrifying sword light and exploding star river, filled with a radiant, destructive force, had already consumed his mind and body.

In a near-desperate roar, the Tyrant fully unleashed all his power. "For the glory of the Divine Race!"

Because of the Eternal Oblivion Force, even the strongest Heavenly Emperors couldn't claim to strike down a Tyrant without injury. Especially when a Tyrant was willing to sacrifice everything for a lethal blow. Not even a Divine Emperor would emerge unscathed from such an encounter.

This was precisely why the Bloodblade Squad could surround and kill a Heavenly Emperor.

If a Divine Emperor had no room to dodge, and the Bloodblade Squad's numbers were multiplied several times over, even one at that level could be slain by their combined assault.

Trapped in a desperate situation, the Tyrant ignored the destructive power of the Eternal Oblivion Force and unleashed the full extent of his strength, revealing the true might of a Tyrant's strongest form.

A blinding radiance burst from his body, so intense it resembled a miniature star, even at the heart of the Astral World. The Eternal Oblivion Force surged to consume the Tyrant. It tore through Li Pin's Quantum Sword Intent without mercy and continued through his body, its power undiminished.

It did not just engulf his body. Even the Tyrant behind him, named Qiong Yu, also turned pale with fear. He could no longer focus on the assassination of Li Pin and quickly retreated with all his might.

Rumble, rumble!

The dazzling light, mixed with a terrifying torrent of energy, surged outward, instantly sweeping across several thousand meters. Not even the hostile environment of the core layer could suppress the overwhelming outburst of energy. It destroyed everything within its range.

The energy released from the core layer annihilated the surrounding matter for several thousand meters. If this energy were to cascade down into the Material World, it would be equivalent to turning a range of several billion kilometers into nothingness.

No matter what form of matter or energy existed, none could survive under such a devastating strike.

If this battle had taken place in a star system, this blow could directly shatter the super black hole at the center of that galaxy, with the energy waves disturbing the entire system.

It would be like a single photon destroying a star, or even more terrifying.

Due to the vacuum environment, energy hardly dissipated. As this energy spread further, it could bring complete destruction to the star system in several years.

In other words, the release of this energy could easily obliterate a galaxy spanning hundreds of thousands of light-years, erasing it from the universe.

This was the power of a Tyrant.

Right now, Tyrant Ya Qi's last, desperate strike not only swallowed Li Pin whole but also dragged Qiong Yu into the chaos.

The force hurled him through the air, forcing him to retreat rapidly.

To withstand the energy unleashed in that final blow, Qiong Yu pushed his mental awareness to its absolute limit, terrified that if the Eternal Oblivion Force lost control, it would pull him in as well.

Meanwhile, the other two Tyrants kept their full attention locked on the torrent of destruction that had been wildly surging just moments ago. As the Eternal Oblivion Force surged in, it was quickly subdued and calmed.

𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

At that moment, a single question filled their minds.

Had Ya Qi's sacrifice been worth it?

Had Li Pin... really died?

And if he hadn't, just how much of the Eternal Oblivion Force had he absorbed?

Before anyone could find an answer, the Tyrant wielding the Sovereign Divine Weapon, clearly adept in sensing techniques, sensed something. He shouted, "Qiong Yu! Watch out!"

As he warned her, he slammed the ring-shaped Sovereign Divine Weapon, sending visible ripples crashing outward in a wave that surged straight toward Li Pin.

Almost at the same instant, a figure stepped out from the chaotic swirl of the Eternal Oblivion Force and the destructive energy waves.

Bathed in chaotic light, he emerged like a war god rising from fire and smoke.

The Eternal Oblivion Force continued to pour into him, but the chaotic light around his body resisted its invasion. At most, it dimmed slightly—but it never broke.

This was the Infinite Star Abyss Body. Combined with the Grand Oblivion Art, Li Pin had "avoided" the Eternal Oblivion Force's erosion, all while lifting his sword to strike.

Time and space in front of the Ruoxi Sword's tip twisted.

He was still some distance from Qiong Yu when he drew the blade, but the moment it thrust forward, the sword had already closed in.

Starlight, formed from the fusion of matter and energy, flared around the blade like a shockwave, tearing through the spatial ripples left by the earlier clash.

The sword tip pierced straight toward Qiong Yu, who was being forced back at high speed.

But it was precisely because the Quantum Sword Intent shattered the spatial ripple that Qiong Yu caught a brief window to react.

His inner spirit power surged violently. "Sacred Yin-Yang Wheel!"

He swept his hands counterclockwise, forming a ring. As the motion completed, a massive, blazing white treasure wheel unfurled outward, instantly intercepting the sword's tip.

At that moment, another Tyrant of the Divine Race, one who had just been channeling a Supreme Secret Art, abruptly ceased his technique. He pressed his palms together, and a second dark, sacred wheel appeared.

This was a complete set of Pinnacle Cosmic Radiance Divine Weapons. And... they seemed to also come with a corresponding combined attack technique.

The two treasure wheels resonated, and the space where Li Pin stood seemed to be locked by an unseen force. The Quantum Sword Intent, nearing the treasure wheels, was swiftly erased.

Li Pin's eyes gleamed sharply. He activated the Grand Oblivion Art, sending out invisible ripples from his body. Time and space energy leaked from the Ruoxi Sword, as though he could slip through time and space itself, breaking free from the Sacred Yin-Yang Wheel.

But just then, the Tyrant holding the ring-shaped Sovereign Divine Weapon once again raised a hand.

Clang!

The clear ring of the Sovereign Divine Weapon echoed, and instantly, the spatial power of the Ruoxi Sword faltered. The tear in space that had almost opened came to a halt.

"One at a time, no need to rush," Li Pin muttered.

He waved his hand, and the Cosmic Genesis Chart appeared, descending upon the Divine Race's Tyrant, like the manifestation of a world trying to envelope him.

The Chart couldn't fully encompass him due to the power of the ring-shaped Sovereign Divine Weapon, but this time... there was no more interference.
