Chapter 526 Talisman
"puff--!"
The Soul Emperor was blasted thousands of miles away by the violent energy shockwave, spitting out a mouthful of blood before he could barely regain his footing.
His face was deathly pale, and his eyes still held a lingering sense of disbelief and horror.
We were way too close just now!
Xiao Bai's self-destruction came too suddenly and too decisively. From the burst of his aura to the complete detonation of his energy, there was almost no warning or hesitation.
By the time he realized what was happening and tried to escape, the destructive energy had already engulfed him like a tsunami.
He stared intently at the spot where Xiao Bai had originally been standing.
That place has been transformed into a devastated area filled with a pervasive blood mist and intertwined purple lightning.
The raging energy continued to wreak havoc, twisting and tearing apart the dark void of that area.
"This guy—just like that, he self-destructed without any hesitation?"
The Soul Emperor's expression was complex.
That rising star who repeatedly thwarted his plans, drove him to the brink of despair, and even made him wary, actually—
died?
In such a tragic and resolute way?
Just as the Soul Emperor's mind was in turmoil, the eerie demonic light shooting from that giant, malevolent eye finally pierced through the raging energy turbulence and precisely penetrated the blood mist that filled the sky after Xiao Bai's self-destruction.
*Sizzle sizzle sizzle—!!!*
The moment the demonic light and the purple lightning in the blood mist came into contact, a corrosive sound that made your teeth ache erupted.
As if encountering its natural enemy, the purple lightning flashed and resisted frantically, trying to extinguish the cold and evil demonic light.
"what?"
Within the eerie giant eye, the dark red vortex-like "pupil" shifted slightly, revealing a hint of surprise and inquiry.
"Such pure, such—ultimate destructive power?"
The voice carried a hint of doubt and surprise: "A battle qi plane—when did lightning of this level come into being? Even in the vast world, such pure destructive power is rare—"
He seemed to be carefully sensing the Daoist essence contained within the purple lightning.
Soon, he discovered something even more amiss.
Within that pure, destructive thunder that seemed to want to destroy everything, as it fought against and annihilated the demonic light, a faint but incredibly tenacious life force gradually emerged!
That vitality is like the first spring bud in the cold winter, fragile yet tenacious.
The moment that glimmer of life born from destruction appeared was like a spark falling into a pile of dry wood!
boom!
That faint glimmer of life acted like a fuse, instantly igniting a power hidden deep within the purple lightning!
In an instant, a rich and powerful life force emerged from the purple lightning like a volcanic eruption!
Gradually, destruction and life, these two originally extremely opposing forces, achieved a strange balance within the purple lightning—"Life and death—mutual support—"
At this moment, Xiao Bai's soul was in a strange state, clinging to every wisp of blood mist and every bolt of purple lightning.
Sensing the astonishing changes occurring within the blood mist and purple lightning, despite being in dire straits and facing the threat of the Evil Emperor, he couldn't help but feel a surge of ecstatic joy!
"Just as I suspected! My guess was right!"
"To discover the ultimate vitality within ultimate destruction, one must, within ultimate destruction, transform death into life!"
At this moment, he clearly felt that his understanding of the Life and Death Purple Lightning had finally reached an unprecedented level of perfection!
He had already mastered the power of destruction within the passage.
And the power of life has long been mastered.
However, the two forces have always been clearly distinct. Although they can be used simultaneously, they cannot truly be integrated into one and reach the state of "birth and death as one, endless cycle".
At this moment, under the dual pressure of the absolute destruction brought by the self-destruction and the death threat brought by the evil emperor's demonic light, the last bit of barrier was finally broken!
At the end of destruction, new life is born.
The ultimate of new life breeds destruction.
"Hehehe... No wonder he was so decisive in self-destructing before—"
The eerie giant eye had clearly seen through Xiao Bai's change in state, and its grand, ethereal voice carried a hint of mockery.
"Originally, I only intended to transform you into my bloodline, so that I could contribute to my departure from this place."
"But now, I'm rather interested in the lightning emanating from you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the dark red vortex in the giant eye suddenly accelerated its rotation!
A drop of viscous, oil-like, eerie liquid, like a teardrop, slowly slid down from the center of the giant eye.
The moment the droplet detached from the giant eye, it seemed to lose some kind of restraint and suddenly expanded!
Whoosh—!!!
The droplets transformed into a vast, ink-like, cold black mist that enveloped the blood mist area left by Xiao Bai's explosion!
Wherever this black mist passed, even the dark void itself emitted a mournful cry of being eroded and corrupted, and the space became viscous and stagnant!
Xiao Bai's heart tightened suddenly!
He could clearly feel that the threat emanating from the black mist was far greater than that of the demonic light before!
Just as he was about to make a move, his soul suddenly trembled.
"Thunder Talisman!!"
Xiao Bai was both surprised and delighted. He sensed something unusual in his soul, which was because the thunder talisman had just stirred.
But soon, his face darkened!
The talisman... it really only moved slightly!
Over the years, he had been pondering what this talisman really was, what its power was, and whether he could control it.
Unfortunately, even with his current cultivation level, he couldn't shake the Thunder Talisman in the slightest, let alone use it!
"Never mind that, let's rebuild our physical body first!"
As the black mist drew ever closer, Xiao Bai's heart pounded with increasing unease. He glared hatefully at Lei Fu.
A thought flashed through his mind, "Hmm?!"
He was astonished to find that his physical body, which he could reshape with a single thought when his life force was fully developed, was now completely still.
Moreover, the moment he made a move, the mysterious Eternal Reincarnation Thunder within his body began to tremble.
In that brief moment of delay, the overwhelming, chilling black mist surged into the blood mist area like a tidal wave!
*Sizzle sizzle sizzle—!*
The moment the black mist came into contact with the blood mist and purple lightning, a corrosive sound erupted that was far more intense than before!
The purple lightning resisted frantically, trying to annihilate the black mist, but it seemed powerless to do so.
Before long, both the purple lightning and the blood mist began to be eroded and worn away by the black mist at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Xiao Bai could feel his blood and soul rapidly depleting and weakening!
"Damn it!!!"
Xiao Bai almost ground his back teeth to powder.
Seeing the blood mist and the aura of the soul constantly dissipating, a shadow fell over his heart.
But at that moment...
"well----"
A sigh, filled with vicissitudes and weariness, resounded without warning in this dark void.
The sigh was very soft, yet it seemed to possess some incredible power, instantly spreading throughout the entire dark space.
And at the very moment this sigh rang out, the cold, black mist that was spreading wildly and eroding everything suddenly stopped!
It was as if an invisible hand had pressed the pause button.
Immediately afterwards, the eerie giant eye that occupied half of the void began to tremble violently!
The dark red vortex in his pupils spun wildly, revealing an unmistakable rage and astonishment!
"Fu! You're going to stop me?!"
The grand, ethereal voice turned sharp and filled with rage.
The voice from the void did not respond to the Evil Emperor's question; instead, a milky-white energy silently emerged from the depths of the void.
The light was not dazzling, but rather carried a gentle and serene atmosphere.
It was like the softest veil, precisely separating Xiao Bai's blood mist area from the cold black mist!
laugh--!
The black mist crashed into the milky white light screen, producing an even more violent corrosive sound, but it could not advance any further!
The light barrier steadily protected the blood mist and purple lightning inside, remaining unmoved no matter how the black mist impacted and corroded it.
Xiao Bai felt the blood and soul that had stopped flowing, and was secretly relieved. Just as he was about to express his gratitude, he suddenly froze.
symbol?
Xiao Bai's heart skipped a beat, and an unbelievable guess came to mind.
This place is subject to dimensional suppression, so it is clearly not the Great Thousand World, but a special dimensional space.
Could it be—the Ancestor of Symbols?!
And those who attacked him—
It's the Demon Emperor?!
He—has arrived in the plane where the Tianxuan Continent is located?!
And it appeared directly in the Demon Suppression Prison where the Demon Emperor was sealed?!
This conjecture sent shockwaves through Xiao Bai's heart!
That strange passage brought him here?!
Just as Xiao Bai was shaken by this conjecture, another unexpected event occurred!
The endless cycle of lightning within him, which had been trembling constantly, finally made a move!
Buzz—! ! !
Dark red lightning surged forth from Xiao Bai's blood mist, covering the sky and the earth!
In an instant, the original purple lightning blood mist was stained with a layer of dark red lightning!
The moment the dark red lightning appeared, the atmosphere of the entire dark space changed.
A strange Daoist aura instantly spread out.
"Such a rich aura of reincarnation!"
In the darkness, that ancient, ethereal voice suddenly rang out again, filled with surprise and inquiry.
He had barely finished speaking—
The purple lightning that caused birth and death suddenly shone brightly!
The next moment, the purple lightning, like a greedy beast, instantly devoured the dark red lightning!
Immediately afterwards—
Strange lightning, interwoven with gold and black, reappeared from the depths of the blood mist!
The purple lightning, which was constantly in motion, opened its "giant mouth" again and swallowed the golden-black lightning!
Boom!
Next, five-colored lightning erupted simultaneously within the blood mist.
The purple lightning of birth and death accepts all comers, and the five-colored lightning also instantly merges into it!
All of this happened so fast that even the Evil Emperor and the mysterious being seemed to be caught off guard.
To their astonishment, the purple lightning, like a gluttonous beast, devoured lightning of various colors one after another, and then began to undergo some indescribable qualitative change!
boom-!!!
A dazzling light, so intense that it was impossible to look directly at it, suddenly erupted from the center of the blood mist!
Thunder rumbled in the void, as if thousands of bolts of lightning were roaring at the same time!
The light grew brighter and brighter, gradually engulfing all the blood mist, and even Xiao Bai's soul aura completely disappeared within the light. As the light gradually faded—
The blood mist and Xiao Bai's soul fluctuations had disappeared from the spot.
A lightning talisman, about the size of a palm, floated silently in the dark void.
The runes are entirely purple, with their surface covered in mysterious lightning patterns, giving them an ancient and mysterious appearance.
"This is----"
The Soul Emperor's pupils shrank sharply as he stared intently at the thunder talisman, a storm raging in his heart.
The dark red vortex in the giant, malevolent eye also stopped spinning, revealing a hint of solemnity and—an undisguised greed?
The voice from the darkness fell silent, seemingly sensing something intently.
Suddenly—
"BOOM—!!!"
A deafening thunderclap, as if the heavens and earth were created, exploded without warning!
The entire dark space trembled violently!
A flash of lightning appeared in the void!
The floating purple lightning talisman suddenly transformed into a dazzling purple stream of light, shooting off in a certain direction in the dark space!
The speed is so fast that it seems to transcend time!
"Trying to leave?!"
The crimson light in the malevolent giant eye intensified, and its greed almost materialized!
With a loud shout!
A gigantic hand, entirely formed from viscous, dark demonic energy, suddenly emerged from the depths of darkness!
The giant hand spread its five fingers wide, as if grasping stars, carrying a terrifying power that could suppress heaven and earth, and fiercely grabbed at the shooting purple lightning talisman!
"boom-!!!"
A terrifying and indescribable thunderous pressure suddenly erupted from the thunder talisman!
The violent pressure raged out like a real storm!
The Soul Emperor, who was closer, froze instantly, his eyes flashing with shock and terror!
From the aura emanating from this thunder talisman, he felt as if a single bolt of lightning could strike him to pieces and annihilate his soul!
"This is... Xiao Bai's trump card?!"
The Soul Emperor was utterly horrified.
He had always thought that Xiao Bai had obtained some ancient opportunity in the Dou Qi Continent, but he never expected that Xiao Bai would have such a terrifying trump card hidden in his body!
The level of this thunder talisman is probably far beyond the scope of the Dou Qi Continent!
In the void, compared to the dark, all-encompassing hand of darkness, the purple lightning rune looked incredibly small.
But it didn't slow down or dodge at all, and went straight for the palm of the demon!
The feeling was like a shooting star crashing into the night sky!
"Leave it here! Such a treasure should rightfully belong to me!"
The Evil Emperor's confident laughter had just begun...
laugh-!!!
There was no earth-shattering explosion, no stalemate where the forces were evenly matched.
The purple light, as easily as a red-hot knife cutting through butter, pierced through the center of the giant dark hand, creating a large, transparent hole!
Then, without slowing down at all, it disappeared into the depths of darkness in the blink of an eye, leaving only a fading purple trail as it sped away.
"uh-huh-!!!"
From the depths of darkness came a muffled groan of pain!
Immediately following was a deep, furious roar that echoed throughout the void: "Damn ant! Once I break the seal, I will find you! I will refine you into a demon slave, to suffer the torment of demonic fire burning your soul for eternity!!"
! "
His voice was filled with overwhelming rage and a deep-seated killing intent.
"Break the seal?"
The ancient voice from the depths of the void rang out again, its tone seemingly extremely joyful, even carrying a hint of—relaxation.
"Just stay here obediently. Stop dreaming!"
"Fu! Don't get cocky!"
Upon hearing this, the Evil Emperor sneered, his tone mocking: "Back then, even burning your own reincarnation couldn't save this world! That little bug who managed to escape was even less likely to!"
"Don't forget, he comes from the Dou Qi plane! He's not far from becoming a Supreme—oh, in their world, he'd be called a Dou Di, right?!"
"Having reached this level, if he wanted to switch to cultivating the Yuan energy of this world, he would have to dissipate his original cultivation! Do you think he would be willing to give up his nine-star Dou Sheng Dou Qi cultivation?"
"As long as he cannot cultivate Yuan Power, he cannot escape the instinctive suppression and rejection of this plane's天地 (heaven and earth)!"
"What makes you think that an 'outsider' whose power is suppressed can help you? Can they change anything?"
Listening to the conversation between the two, the Soul Emperor, who was trying to keep a low profile, had an uncertain glint in his eyes.
Dou Di — Supreme?
These two words exploded in his heart like thunder!
A flicker of barely suppressed excitement flashed in his eyes!
"It really was the right decision!"
This world is indeed not simple!
Judging from their tone, these two seem to take the "Dou Di" realm, the highest realm in the Dou Qi Continent, for granted, or even not care much about it!
Does this mean that there are many powerful individuals in this world who are at the same level as Dou Di?
A world with numerous "Battle Emperor" level powerhouses —
The possibility of breaking through to a higher level is countless times greater than the Dou Qi Continent, where the path ahead is blocked!
However, this excitement quickly subsided, replaced by deep worry and vigilance.
That malevolent being who calls himself "This Emperor" seems to have been sealed here by another powerful being.
Xiao Bai—it seems—has gained that person's favor.
But he became a bloodline of the sealed side!
Now that Xiao Bai is gone, will that powerful figure called "Fu" take his anger out on him and eliminate him, this "bloodline"?
Just as the Soul Emperor's mind was in turmoil, the aged voice rang out with a faint laugh, seemingly a response to the Demon Emperor's earlier words: "Since he can hurt you, Demon Emperor, I believe in this little fellow."
He's sure—
Just as the talisman ancestor finished speaking, a thunderous roar erupted—!!
A deafening thunderclap echoed from the direction where the purple thunder talisman had vanished!
Immediately afterwards—
Snap! Snap!
A clear, crisp cracking sound followed immediately!
Buzz—! ! !
The entire dark space trembled violently!
It was as if the very foundation of this space had been shaken!
"Boy! If you're going to leave, then leave! Why did you have to crash into my reincarnation seal?!"
The old voice of the talisman ancestor, which was originally filled with laughter, instantly turned into a furious roar!
Meanwhile, someone exclaimed, "Hahaha!!! Fu! This is the person you were optimistic about! You just praised him, and he's already done me a huge favor!!!"
The Demon King’s wild, ecstatic laughter erupted like a tsunami from the depths of darkness!
As soon as he finished speaking—
boom!!!
An extremely cold, vast, and terrifying demonic aura, like a flood bursting its banks, surged forth from the deepest part of the darkness!
