Chapter 953: You Have Ended Your Path
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
The Xiangliu Grand Sage was unable to overcome the Saros Magical Tree’s defenses. All he could do was to keep it busy temporarily. However, at that moment, the Saros Magical Tree once again started to shine with light, trapping the Xiangliu Grand Sage.
When he saw Lin Feng take out his Heaven-Slicing Seal, the Xiangliu Grand Sage’s heart missed a beat.
After he saw the Earth Dragon King getting trapped by it, the uneasy feeling in the Xiangliu Grand Sage’s heart reached new heights.
Lin Feng had an abundance of methods. While the monkey, the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage, the Heavenly Master Grand Sage and the Golden Roc Grand Sage surrounded him, Lin Feng maintained a calm demeanor as he battled vehemently, showing off his confidence in himself.
This struck fear in the Xiangliu Grand Sage’s heart. The Golden Cicada asked him for help and he jumped at the chance to benefit from both the Golden Cicada and Lin Feng.
As long as they managed to hold Lin Feng off long enough, the other demons would naturally join the attack. By then, the situation would have completely changed.
However, the situation right now deviated completely from the plan as the Xiangliu Grand Sage contemplated retreat. Unlike the White Tiger Grand Sage, he was not as arrogant and he was more flexible in terms of his thinking.
Particularly since he had already benefited much from the Golden Cicada.
The Xiangliu Grand Sage knew that by leaving like this, he would inadvertently offend the Golden Cicada. However, he realized that after this battle, if the Master of the Celestial Sect still had enough energy, he would continue chasing after the Golden Cicada.
Here, the Xiangliu Grand Sage’s desire to flee became unstoppable. However, before he could do anything, Lin Feng appeared before him.
The Xiangliu Grand Sage cursed in his heart. Now, he could not run off.
He did not dare to harbor any hope for a lucky break. A star started to appear on all nine of his human faces. The Xiangliu Grand Sage’s body surged with demon powers as all nine of his human faces opened their mouths to spew out a black, poisonous water
Wherever the poisonous water touched, the shapeless void appeared to solidify as if it had been coated by a layer of black. Compared to the black of the void around, it appeared desolate and barren, devoid of all forms of life.
Lin Feng’s expression did not change. He gently tapped with his left hand and the Original Heaven and Earth Splitting Mantra activated. The earth was destroyed and the Four Appearances were reformed. One clear and one cloudy streams of gas flowed out separately. It appeared to re-form the heaven and earth and brought about the growth of all beings.
The Xiangliu Grand Sage’s poisonous water was a destructive attack. It decayed whatever it touched. However, when Lin Feng used his Original Heaven and Earth Splitting Mantra to suppress it, it was no longer able to create any damage.
Following that, Lin Feng’s right finger shone with a sword radiance as a stream of Heaven-Destroying Sword Qi rushed towards the Xiangliu Grand Sage.
All nine of his human faces roared in anger as his gigantic, serpent body writhed, destroying the void around him. His black, poisonous water continued to spread. Shockingly, it turned the void into a black swamp.
At the same time, the Golden Cicada and the White Tiger Grand Sage were already behind Lin Feng.
The Golden Cicada revealed his true form. A giant black cicada brimming with golden light appeared before everyone. As its wings buzzed, a deafening cry of a cicada could be heard.
However, when the Golden Cicada revealed his true form, it was different from other demons. The gray-robed young monk did not disappear. Instead, he sat cross-legged on the head of the cicada. His hands no longer formed a Buddhist gesture but instead, a more ancient, stranger one.
Circles of golden light started to spread from the Golden Cicada’s body as it shook the void. Wherever it passed, everything, including the spiritual energy present in all creations, started to decay and perish.
The White Tiger Grand Sage too revealed his true form. His form was not big and he was about the size of an ordinary tiger. His entire body was silvery white and shone with a faint golden light. He felt deathly cold.
"Roar!" The White Tiger Grand Sage roared and the stars in the galaxy trembled slightly. In the empty, black space, stars that were impossibly far apart started to shine with ever-growing intensity.
In the next instant, comets rained down towards Lin Feng, bombarding him. This was the Unique Gift of the White Tiger, Comet of the White Tiger.
The White Tiger was only a small step away from completing his Cardinal Tribulations. However, when he revealed his true form and then attacked with his Unique Gift, it was no weaker compared to the Comet of the White Tiger and the monkey had used when he transformed into the White Tiger.
Faced with attacks on all fronts, Lin Feng’s hand turned non-stop as he continued to point the Heaven-Destroying Sword Qi in his right hand at the Xiangliu Grand Sage.
In his left hand, he performed spell gestures non-stop as a huge amount of spell formations appeared in his palm. Finally, they congregate together and turned into a huge spell formation that blocked the Golden Cicada.
Life and death, reality and illusion, heaven and earth, the fleeting and the permanent, light and darkness and Yin and Yang all began to spread apart as the Six Forms of Creation and Destruction appeared together. It was as if they had formed an entirely new world.
At that moment, one black and one white rays of holy light appeared on the spell formation.
Lin Feng’s Holy Light of Creation combined with his Two Elements of Creation Spell. Enveloping the heaven and earth, he turned the world before everyone into a black and white one.
When one looked far into the world, there was nothing but black and white light. In the black and white light, a figure stood like a god.
The Golden Cicada’s expression did not change but the wings of the giant cicada flapped non-stop as he rushed towards the sea of black and white light. The chirping of the cicadas grew even louder.
"Six Changes of the Three Spells, Nullifying of the Two Extremes, execute!" Lin Feng was expressionless as he gently tapped with his left hand. The Two Elements of Creation Spell, which turned into a giant spell formation, suddenly changed. Other than the Endless Extremes and Polar Reversal, it was the third spell of the Six Changes of the Three Spells, the Nullifying of the Two Extremes!
This was the most powerful of the Six Changes of the Three Spells, which no one had ever seen before.
It was not because Lin Feng did not know how to use it earlier. If he really were to use the Two Elements of Creation Formation to execute this change, then it would destroy every single precious treasure that was used to cast the spell formation, such as the Netherworld Purple Crystal, Mingdu Skeleton, the Heaven-Reflecting Stone and the Instant Heavenly Gravel along with the formation map itself.
Right now, Lin Feng used his own mana to cast this powerful formation and activate this terrifying attack before everyone. While its power was slightly weaker, it nonetheless possessed an apocalyptic power.
In particular, Lin Feng himself used his black and white Holy Light of Creation to further strengthen the Two Elements of Creation Spell. Light from the Nullifying of the Two Extremes started to appear slowly, making everyone’s heart palpitate in fear.
Even the monkey, the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage and the Heavenly Master Grand Sage were frightened.
The Golden Cicada arched his eyebrows as he stared at it and took in a deep breath. His two palms performed another gesture and the giant cicada trembled violently for a while before splitting apart.
The giant cicada of innumerable length suddenly disintegrated and turned into millions of tiny black dots.
Looking at it carefully, every single black dot was a tiny, black cicada. Every cicada shone with a golden light.
Millions of cicadas flapped their wings together and the chirping sound from them was even more terrifying than just now. A limitless, decaying aura began to spread, making the spectators of this battle arch their eyebrows.
In the heaven and earth now, only two things existed. One was an infinite golden light and the other was the deafening chirping of cicadas.
The two sides clashed. Neither wanted to give way.
At the same time, Lin Feng sent a thought out and Saros fused into the Saros Magical Tree. The giant tree branches slowly shrunk and the giant tree slowly turned into a tiny tree branch.
This tree branch lay horizontally over Lin Feng’s head and the dark golden light retracted back into its body and stopped shining. All there was left right now was a layer of faint, golden light as it turned non-stop.
The White Tiger Grand Sage’s barrage of comets was completely blocked by the Saros Magical Tree. While the tree branch shook non-stop, it did not give way as it stopped the comets completely.
As one approached the Saros Magical Tree, the void would twist and turn. The gigantic stars would turn into a single dot of light. When a single star touched the tree branch, it bounced off. When it was far away, it would regain its gigantic size.
The White Tiger Grand Sage’s ice-cold pupils shrunk. A Mahayana level magic treasure could act on its own and did not require anyone to help trigger its power. However, if an Immortal Soul Third Level cultivator or an even more powerful cultivator were to direct it and the human and treasure were to come together, the Mahayana level magic treasure would be able to become even more powerful as the two of them combined their strength.
Even so, the Saros Magical Tree’s defensive powers struck fear and awe in the White Tiger Grand Sage’s heart.
While Lin Feng was controlling the Saros Magical Tree, it was evident that his concentration was limited. At the same time he was controlling the Saros Magical Tree to block the White Tiger Grand Sage, he was still fighting with the Golden Cicada.
"In the Lingyuan Mountains, after the Nine Netherworld Ten-sided Dual Garbhadhātu incident, if you had gone your separate ways from the Golden Cicada, perhaps you would have been able to enjoy a few more days of peace," said Lin Feng as he stared at the Xiangliu Grand Sage. "However, by coming together with him, you have ended your path."
While the Two Elements of Creation Spell trapped the Golden Cicada and the Saros Magical Tree blocked the White Tiger Grand Sage, the Heaven-Destroying Sword Qi in Lin Feng’s hands moved non-stop as it charged towards the Xiangliu Grand Sage.
The blurred sword radiance brimmed with a terrifying, heaven-destroying aura that appeared capable of breaking every single mantra. Wherever the sword radiance, it destroyed. Even the Xiangliu Gran Sage’s all-corrupting poisonous, black water was unable to resist it as the humongous black swamp was forcibly torn apart.
The poisonous, black water that seemed capable of killing everything was being wiped out by the terrifying sword radiance.
As the Xiangliu Grand Sage watched the sword radiance coming towards him, his nine human faces roared, and black, poisonous blood poured from all of his pores.
One of the human faces exploded and turned into a puddle of black blood, which gurgled in the void as if it sought to corrode a hole through the dimension to escape.
When the black blood finally dissipated, there was a path that led into another world.
It was a gray, desolate world. Wherever one looked, it was a pitch-black swamp without any trace of life. Black fog churned above the surface of the black swamp. The smell of death was noxious.
It was the home of the Xiangliu Grand Sage, the Black Loch World. The Xiangliu Grand Sage sacrificed one of his heads and a luminary to forcibly open an inter-world passage back home.
Black water surged from the Black Loch World as it sought to hold onto him and help him escape.
Lin Feng shook his head with a smile.
Then, the Xiangliu Grand Sage noticed that the Thunder Dragon Avatar, which caught the Lu Yuan Grand Sage and was freed from the Azure Sky Dragon King, turned its head.
A white Dragon Awe Auspicious Cloud appeared and the Two Elements Origins-Returning Mystic World Spell covered the Xiangliu Grand Sage’s body.
