Chapter 35: Yu Tuo, Save Me!!!
"Just a single hand managed to block the attack of an Immortal King."
"And that single shout of 'Get lost' shattered the sky of the foreign domain for thousands of miles!"
The Goddess of Life covered her mouth as tears streamed uncontrollably down her face.
"This strike crossed endless space and time, spanning eternal ages. If it were to fall upon us… what kind of scene would that be?"
"Would we… still be alive?"
As soon as the Goddess of Life said this, the entire God Realm trembled.
All the gods felt their own insignificance under the terrifying pressure transmitted through the sky screen.
Only now did they truly understand that the difference between the two worlds was not simply a difference in magnitude.
It was the difference between a figure inside a painting and someone outside the painting.
If the other side wished it, a casual wipe of the brush would erase them completely.
…
At this moment, whether they were ordinary mortals on the Douluo Continent or lofty God Kings,
Everyone's gaze was fixed on the scene about to collide on the sky screen.
Above the sky of the foreign domain,
The giant hand covered in golden scales, representing the will of the Immortal King An Lan, descended with a world-destroying momentum.
On the other side, the pale hand surrounded by chaotic energy behind Ye Qingyu, which seemed to extend from the upstream of the River of Time, gently moved forward to meet it.
This was the first true move made by the mysterious master of the Primordial Immortal Court.
Which one was stronger?
The domineering Immortal King who proclaimed that those who recite his true name would gain eternal life?
Or the Immortal Lord, who had never revealed himself but cultivated heaven-defying disciples and left countless legends behind?
For a moment, the entire Douluo Plane seemed to freeze in time as everyone stared at the sky screen.
…
Boom!
Above the foreign domain, without the slightest warning, two Immortal King-level beings made their moves simultaneously.
The giant hands that stretched across endless time and space collided violently in the sky.
In an instant, heaven and earth darkened, and the sun and moon lost their light.
With only that brief contact, the crimson sky within billions of miles shattered like a mirror, turning instantly into primordial chaos and nothingness.
Not only that, but countless great stars hanging beyond the domain exploded one after another like firecrackers before turning into dazzling fireworks.
The River of Time itself was struck until it broke apart. Fragments of time scattered everywhere, as if this single strike had pierced through the past, present, and future.
"Pfft!"
As for the previously arrogant True Immortal An Cangtian, when the shockwave struck him, he was sent flying like a kite with a snapped string.
Although he did not die thanks to the protection of his father's giant hand, blood sprayed wildly from his already torn arm.
Golden True Immortal blood scattered across the sky, instantly corroding dozens of small worlds below into nothingness.
Meanwhile, within the sky screen's broadcast, the entire Douluo Plane plunged into utter darkness for a moment.
Even the God Kings of the God Realm trembled in fear.
—
Foreign Domain, Border Desolation Battlefield.
As the smoke cleared, the giant golden-scaled hand had not dissipated.
Instead, it became even more solid, as if trying to squeeze its way through the crack in space.
Then a vast, cold voice filled with supreme authority resounded from the distant end of time and space, shaking the entire ancient history.
"At the pinnacle of immortality, standing above all—where there is An Lan, there is the Heavens!!"
Boom!
With those words, a terrifying aura that made the myriad laws of heaven and earth wail swept across the entire foreign domain.
At the end of the spatial crack, an ancient war chariot radiating immortal light slowly advanced.
Standing atop the chariot was a towering figure.
He held an ancient golden spear in one hand and an immortal shield in the other. His entire body was shrouded in chaotic energy. Just the brilliance of his eyes alone was billions of times brighter than the sun in the sky.
Immortal King, An Lan!
He looked down below, his gaze piercing through endless space before landing on the pale hand blocking him.
His voice carried an unrivaled domineering presence.
"The Scarlet Edge Spear, the Immortal Shield—slay all Immortal Kings and annihilate the Nine Heavens!"
"I didn't expect it would be you who blocked this strike across endless time and space."
"But so what?"
An Lan sneered. His laughter shattered the sky, causing countless creatures of the foreign domain to collapse to their knees, trembling.
"You are welcome to try."
"Even if I must carry the Heaven Abyss on my back and support my son's chariot with one hand, I, An Lan, am still unmatched in this world!"
Arrogant.
Arrogant to the extreme.
At this moment, through the sky-screen broadcast, An Lan's domineering figure and his attitude of disregarding the heavens and myriad worlds carved themselves deeply into the souls of every living being on the Douluo Continent.
…
Inside the Purple Gold Alms Bowl,
The God of Destruction curled up in a corner.
Even with the protection of this supreme artifact, he was still crushed by the aura until blood flowed from his seven orifices, and his divine soul felt like it would split apart.
This was already the result of the Immortal Lord protecting Ye Qingyu.
Otherwise, even a wisp of that aura would have been enough to reduce him to ashes.
"So this… is what true invincibility looks like?"
Looking at An Lan standing on the war chariot, the God of Destruction's worldview completely collapsed.
He had once believed himself to be the ruler of the world.
But after hearing the words, "Even if I carry the Heaven Abyss on my back and support my son's chariot with one hand, I remain invincible in this world," he finally understood what true kingly bearing meant.
Before An Lan, this so-called God King of Destruction was nothing but a joke.
"It's over… that Ye Qingyu is finished. That Immortal Lord is finished too."
"And I… am finished as well."
The God of Destruction shook his head and closed his eyes in despair.
He could not imagine anyone in existence capable of blocking such an overbearing and invincible being.
However, the moment An Lan finished speaking, a calm voice suddenly came from behind the pale hand.
The voice was ordinary to the extreme, yet it seemed to contain the ultimate truth of the Great Dao.
"Too noisy."
There were no earth-shaking displays like An Lan's.
No grand declaration that shook the ages.
The so-called Immortal Lord himself did not even appear.
Only the giant hand wrapped in chaotic energy moved slightly.
He merely moved a finger.
The next moment, heaven and earth reversed, and the cosmos collapsed.
The previously domineering An Lan, who had declared himself invincible, suddenly had his expression change drastically the moment that finger descended.
That was not a finger.
It was an entire universe undergoing creation and destruction.
As the finger descended, it seemed to carry the weight of countless worlds and a supreme power that stood above the River of Time.
Clang!
The next second, a thunderous sound capable of shattering the souls of immortals echoed out.
The golden ancient spear in An Lan's hand, the immortal weapon said to be able to pierce the heavens, let out a sorrowful cry under the pressure of that finger.
Then sparks flew.
The spear tip bent.
"What?!"
An Lan's pupils instantly shrank to the size of needles. For the first time, a trace of fear appeared in his eyes.
"You have already begun touching that realm!"
An Lan roared as he quickly retreated.
That was a terrifying power that surpassed the Immortal King level and nearly touched the legendary realm.
Even for him, a dignified Immortal King, resisting such power was extremely difficult.
Just a trace of it was enough to shatter the laws of the Great Dao he had cultivated.
"Break for me!!!"
An Lan roared in fury, golden light blazing across his body as he attempted to resist with all his might.
But the giant hand gave him no opportunity.
After the first strike landed, it moved again and pressed toward An Lan.
Though it appeared slow, it ignored space and time entirely, descending with overwhelming force.
Crack!
In the next moment, the immortal war chariot beneath An Lan's feet instantly filled with cracks.
Even his straight spine, which stood like a spear, began bending little by little under that indescribable pressure.
At that moment, everything about standing at the peak of immortality and being invincible in the world became nothing but a joke.
"No! That's impossible!"
A storm surged within An Lan's heart.
He could not accept that he could not even block a single palm from the other side.
And this was only a strike across endless time and space.
If the other party's true body descended…
An Lan did not dare continue imagining.
Because, since achieving the Dao across countless epochs, this was the first time he had truly felt the threat of death.
Seeing that giant hand about to grind him and his war chariot into nothingness.
At this life-and-death moment, the Immortal King, who had just displayed unparalleled arrogance, no longer cared about the dignity of the strong.
He suddenly turned his head and shouted toward the depths of the foreign domain.
"Yu Tuo, save me!!!"
