Chapter 70 Heavenly Calamity Qi
With a flick of his left hand, the Primordial Chaos Bell appeared; with a flick of his right finger, a melodious bell sound rang out.
The bell's energy swept across all directions, primordial chaos qi surged forth, the void crumbled layer by layer, and the divine light of destruction instantly dissipated.
The next moment, the Twelfth-Grade World-Destroying Black Lotus and the Primordial Chaos Bell, two supreme-grade innate spiritual treasures, flew out simultaneously, confronting each other in the air.
"It's you!" Upon seeing the Primordial Chaos Bell, the World-Destroying Daoist seemed to remember something and exclaimed in surprise.
"Very well! First you killed my Demonic Sect's envoy, then you stole my origin, opposing my Demonic Sect at every turn. Did you really think that my Demonic Sect was without...people?" The World-Destroying Daoist grew angrier with each word, eventually even shouting out each sentence in a halting manner.
Enraged, the World-Destroying Daoist's face turned crazed, his ferocity erupting. Blood-red light surged from his body, his aura suddenly escalating. When he attacked, his sword qi became increasingly ferocious, his hands severing towering peaks.
"So what if I offended your Demonic Sect! Does your Demonic Sect still have any Great Luo Golden Immortals? Even if they did, would they dare appear in the Primordial World?" Feng Zichen sneered, unmoved by the words of the World-Destroying Daoist.
As he swung his Zichen Sword, Feng Zichen roared, his acupoints flashing, projecting images of the celestial stars. His aura overwhelmed the World-Destroying Daoist, charging towards him.
With Feng Zichen's powerful attack, the World-Destroying Daoist was forced to retreat steadily. The illusory images of the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords trembled continuously, unable to withstand the power of the celestial stars any longer, and shattered.
"Not good!" The World-Destroying Daoist was startled when the illusory images of the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords shattered. He swung his sword to block while hastily retreating.
"Can you escape?" Taking advantage of the situation, Feng Zichen pressed his advantage, repeatedly swinging his Zichen Sword. Brilliant sword light poured down, enveloping the World-Destroying Daoist, and crashing down.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The World-Destroying Daoist was a manifestation of a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, possessing an incredibly hard body. The Zhou Tian sword light struck him, producing a clanging sound, but it couldn't harm him in the slightest.
However, his black robes were torn by the sword energy, his Daoist crown shattered, leaving him tattered and disheveled, a far cry from his previous noble bearing.
"Buzz!"
The World-Destroying Daoist waved his hand, and the twelfth-grade World-Destroying Black Lotus in the void stirred, no longer entangled with the Hongmeng Dao Bell, flying to his side, casting strands of dark light that extinguished the Zhou Tian sword light.
"Who are you? How dare you force me to this extent!" Standing on the lotus platform of the twelfth-grade World-Destroying Black Lotus, the World-Destroying Daoist flashed with dark light, and his black robes and Daoist crown reappeared.
"Who am I? Merely a nameless nobody. Even if I told you, you wouldn't know. Let's not talk about it!" With the World-Destroying Daoist backed by the Demonic Sect, how could Feng Zichen dare to reveal his identity and invite trouble?
Fortunately, the heavenly secrets here were chaotic, and the World-Destroying Daoist couldn't deduce his origins. He decided to conceal his origins and let him guess.
"Hmph! Fine, don't tell me then. You're going to die anyway, so there's no point in telling you." The World-Destroying Daoist sneered, a strange aura emanating from his body.
As soon as this aura appeared, a mournful sound filled the heavens and earth, as if the primordial world was about to shatter and all things were about to wither. At the same time, an extremely dangerous feeling arose in Feng Zichen's heart.
"Heaven and Earth Calamity Qi!" Feng Zichen's pupils suddenly contracted, and he summoned back the Primordial Dao Bell to protect himself. This was the Heaven and Earth Calamity Qi that the Demon Ancestor had collected when he instigated the war between the three races.
If the Calamity Qi touched one's body; at best, one's fortune would be damaged, everything would go wrong, and bad luck would follow one after another; at worst, the Calamity Qi would cloud one's mind, making one irritable and easily angered, and calamity would follow one forever until death.
However, Heaven and Earth Calamity Qi was one of the Demonic Path's most powerful secret techniques. The World-Destroying Daoist's use of this method meant that he had exhausted all his tricks. As long as he could withstand this move, the World-Destroying Daoist would be no threat.
As Feng Zichen pondered, the Daoist of Annihilation repeatedly cast hand seals, unleashing a torrent of calamity energy that transformed into a ferocious spear, radiating overwhelming killing intent. Its cold light flashed, piercing through layers of space to reach him.
"God-Slaying Spear!"
Sensing the overwhelming killing intent, the Primordial Dao Bell trembled incessantly. As its tolling rang out, the primordial energy surged and shattered the God-Slaying Spear.
The God-Slaying Spear shattered, unleashing the calamity energy of heaven and earth!
Dark calamity energy permeated all directions, engulfing Feng Zichen before he could even activate the Primordial Dao Bell, the Twelfth-Grade World-Destroying Black Lotus, carrying immense power, hurtled towards him.
With a clang! Both the Primordial Dao Bell and the Twelfth-Grade World-Destroying Black Lotus were sent flying backward. Without the protection of the Primordial Dao Bell, the calamity energy surged towards Feng Zichen.
The calamity energy was formless and intangible; Feng Zichen's various supernatural abilities, striking it, were like a mud ox entering the sea, unable to create even a ripple. He immediately raised his merit light to protect himself.
*Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!*
The calamity energy and the merit light touched, emitting hissing sounds that actually canceled each other out. In a short moment, the merit light dimmed, causing Feng Zichen great distress, and he quickly withdrew it.
As the calamity energy drew ever closer, Feng Zichen remained unmoved, his gaze calm and collected. He broke the seal in his sea of consciousness, recalling the scene of Pangu creating the world.
Instantly, a spirit of creation surged from Feng Zichen. He picked up the Zichen Sword and swung it forward, a point of light appearing, like the first ray of light in the world, growing brighter and brighter, illuminating the vast universe.
Under this radiance, the calamity energy disintegrated, vanishing without a trace in an instant, as if it had never existed.
"The aura of creation! Who are you? How can you possess the inheritance of creation?" the World-Destroying Daoist asked in shock.
As a lotus seed of the Creation Green Lotus, the World-Destroying Daoist naturally possessed a portion of the memories of creation. Therefore, when he sensed the aura of creation on Feng Zichen, he recognized him at a glance.
Without replying, Feng Zichen withdrew the aura of creation, drew his sword, and charged forward. The battle had dragged on long enough; it was time to end it.
The next moment, the Innate Five Elements Divine Light, the Innate Supreme Yang Divine Light, the Myriad Manifestations Divine Thunder, the Heaven and Earth Furnace, the Five Emperors' Great Handprint, the Nine Heavens Dragon Roar… all sorts of incredible divine powers flew out from Feng Zichen's hands, simultaneously bombarding the World-Destroying Daoist, intending to kill him on the spot!
"You bastard! Even a Great Luo Golden Immortal couldn't destroy my physical body. You think you can hurt me? You're dreaming!"
Having blocked the Myriad Manifestations Divine Thunder, shattered the Five Emperors' Great Handprint, and painstakingly cleaved the Heaven and Earth Furnace, the World-Destroying Daoist had exhausted all his strength and was powerless to block the following divine powers.
The Innate Five Elements Divine Light and the Innate Supreme Yang Divine Light swept over him one after another, tearing his clothes to shreds and leaving his body charred black. The Nine Heavens Dragon Roar, vast and mighty, shattered the endless void, causing him to stagger uncontrollably, truly a pitiful sight.
But Feng Zichen understood in his heart that, just as the World-Destroying Daoist had said, his physical body was incredibly tough.
Those supernatural powers struck him, seemingly leaving him battered and bruised, but in reality, they were like tickles, causing absolutely no harm.
