Chapter 1833: Unparalleled Fist Intent

Hurt, the Earthbearing Dragon Turtle abruptly lifted its gnarly head and let out a long and muffled draconic roar.

As it roared, the dark yellow, hill-sized scales on its body abruptly lit up. The light circulated and weaved into the vast image of a realm at the center of this space of nothingness!

A towering mountain range rose from the ground, and a great but murky river flowed with a deafening roar. The next moment, a thick and dense aura of suppression pressed down on the Chief Libationist, the Old Heavenly Master and more.

The aura of suppression could not be stopped. Space itself was groaning under the sheer volume of power that was on display. It twisted and caved inward like it would experience a total collapse at any moment.

The Chief Libationist’s clothes stopped flapping, and the light of his righteous qi was compressed inward. The Purple Firmament Divine Thunder leaping between the Old Heavenly Master’s fingers crackled like it would wink out at any moment and grew dim. Even the Supreme Primal Origin Celebratory Cloud enveloping Feng Qingyou suddenly flowed much slower and disjointedly than before.

For a time, everyone felt like they were carrying an actual realm on their shoulders. It rooted their body, power, and even their mind in place and made it difficult to even lift their fingers. Naturally, their assault screeched to a halt.

“Get... up!”

Ye Qing was still holding back the Earthbearing Dragon Turtle’s giant foot with the Earthly Sovereign True Body. It was at this moment a suppressed growl escaped his lips.

His muscles and bones roared like a raging river. Every inch of muscle was bulging, and a tremendous amount of force was surging between them.

At that moment, Suppression Hammer, Break Hammer and Annihilation Hammer were no longer three separate intents. Instead, they merged into one and formed one absolute intent.

The dot of light was dim at the beginning, but it immediately unleashed a level of sharpness that could penetrate everything. It was like an unstoppable spear or a divine axe that created the world.

Shred!

There was a muffled but unmistakable sound of tearing. Incredibly, despite the fact that the Earthbearing Dragon Turtle’s foot was covered in thick, dense scales that was comparable to divine metal, Ye Qing’s fist actually ripped through it from the bottom all the way to the top.

Through the wound, his fist intent invaded the Earthbearing Dragon Turtle’s flesh and blood like crazy before exploding!

Rumble!

Rampaging energy burst out from within. It was as if a volcano had erupted inside the giant foot! Large chunks of ashen flesh mixed with broken bits of bones and severed pieces of veins scattered everywhere like a storm. The attack had literally exploded a small portion of the mountain-sized foot to pieces.

Smelly ink green blood was gushing out like fountains as well, though the shockwaves of Ye Qing’s fist intent vaporized them before they could get anywhere.

“Argh!”

The Earthbearing Dragon Turtle let out a bloodcurdling scream. It was a bleak and twisted scream that possessed none of the dignity of a dragon.

Such was its pain that the gigantic image it was using to suppress Ye Qing’s fellow Sages shook violently. The mountains were collapsing, the rivers were drying, and even the image itself was flickering as if unsteady.

The Chief Libationist and the others did not allow the opportunity to slip through their grasp, of course. They all unleashed their power and successfully shattered the aura pressing down on them, scattering the image of the heavy realm to bits.

Their shackles undone, the Sages turned their fury onto the culprit. They targeted the draconic head and unleashed their Magia once more!

However, the terrible pain seemed to have awakened the Earthbearing Dragon Turtle’s brutal instincts completely.

Without warning, the Earthbearing Dragon Turtle abruptly swung its gnarly head at the Sages. The head was already massive beyond measure, but now it was moving at high speed as well. The wind alone was enough to tear the surrounding space to pieces.

As the Sages had just broken free, they were unable to escape immediately.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Several muffled sounds of impact erupted. Even for powerful Sages such as the Chief Libationist, the brutal impact still sent them flying and threw their vigor into disarray.

It was at this moment the Earthbearing Dragon Turtle let out another hateful and maddened roar, and something bizarre took place.

The bits of flesh, bones and blood Ye Qing had exploded and scattered to the surroundings abruptly flew toward a certain direction as if guided by some sort of invisible power. They quickly combined into a flesh-and-blood flood that was filthy beyond words and stank like a garbage dump.

Like a living object, the flesh-and-blood flood flew into the dragon turtle’s mouth and attacked the swelling and burning Earthly Sovereign Bell.

Sizzle! Sizzle sizzle!

When the flood of flesh and blood made contact with the Earthly Sovereign Bell’s blazing light, it created thick columns of smoke and a disturbing sizzling noise.

Although the Profound Yellow Mother Qi was a supreme power that countered all evil and corruption, the flesh-and-blood flood was created using the resentment and filth of the billions of living beings it had devoured. It was not an easy thing to suppress to say the least. In fact, it was the Profound Yellow Mother Qi that was suppressed for a time.

At the same time, a long, forked tongue abruptly emerged from the depths of the Earthbearing Dragon Turtle’s throat!

The tongue wasn’t made of flesh. Instead, it was coarse, tough, and grayish brown in color. It looked like it was forcefully created from the countless lands, mountains and rocks it had devoured. The forks of the tongue looked like a pair of angry dragons ready to unleash fire and brimstone upon their enemies.

Wind and thunder howling, the tongue struck the Earthly Sovereign Bell with enough force to snap a mountain in two like nothing.

DONG! DONG! DONG!

The tongue would strike the Earthly Sovereign Bell again and again like a battering ram. Every impact caused the sacred artifact to shake violently. Its dazzling and powerful dark yellow light was waning rapidly due to the combined assault of the corrosive flesh-and-blood flood and the giant stone tongue.

One last deafening bang later...

THANG!!!

The dark yellow light of the Earthly Sovereign Bell dimmed dramatically for a moment, and the sacred artifact could not hold on any longer. It was violently and forcefully sent flying by the giant tongue of stone.

“RAAHH! HAHAHAHA!”

Having finally gotten rid of the Earthly Sovereign Bell, the Earthbearing Dragon Turtle let out a roar of glee and release.

The gnarly draconic head abruptly lifted into the air once more and glared at Ye Qing and the Sages with a pair of gigantic eyes that resembled a pair of dark red lakes. Its icy hatred was so thick that it was almost tangible. “The Earthly Sovereign Bell... I have remembered today’s humiliation!”

“When I have dealt with this damned mountain on my back, I will definitely crush you all between my teeth and eat you all! I will make you wish you were dead!”

Before it even finished speaking, its gigantic head was also withdrawing backward like a mountain sinking into the earth.

It was the same for its three remaining feet. Its movement elicited loud groans in space as it slowly withdrew back into its massive shell.

Creak... creak...

Its scales rubbed against each other and elicited disturbing shrieks as well.

The holes where the draconic head and its limbs had emerged from were completely blocked off by dark yellow scales. The edges of the scales glowed darkly, and they fit perfectly with each other, leaving not a single gap behind.

In just the blink of an eye, the gigantic Earthbearing Dragon Turtle had transformed into a giant fortress that did not have a single gap and gleamed metallically in this space of nothingness. It no longer had any obvious weak points.
