Chapter 1446: Illuminating the Five Aggregates as Empty

Blood spattered the sky, yet the charge did not cease.He even dragged one enemy towards another.The renowned Heaven-Shaking Halberd, famous throughout the world, carved a gaping hole in his waist and abdomen.Yet, he used the halberd’s blade as a chain, pulling Xiang Bei along as he surged forward.Was he so certain he could slay Tai Yin before Xiang Bei could end him?No one knew the source of his confidence.But he had, indeed, made this choice.Tai Yin, standing atop the colossal umbrella of the Five Dragons Sealing Heaven, could clearly see that section of the halberd blade, even the fragments of internal organs dangling from it.But of course, he also saw the gaze in Jiang Wang's eyes, fixed upon him.In those fiery golden eyes, there was no pain, no anger, only resolve.How grievous the wound!How valiant the momentum!Tai Yin, who had deemed himself fully prepared before the battle, was momentarily taken aback!"Fight me to the death!""Fight me to the death!"This cry was like thunder, echoing across the vast sky.By the time Tai Yin reacted, flipping his hand to produce another oval formation plate,There was a faint, almost imperceptible sound.It seemed something had shattered.Xiang Bei, trailing behind Jiang Wang, was still bewildered, but Tai Yin understood instantly.It was Jiang Wang’s furious cry that had broken the sound封 by the Shadow-Shifting Silence Array.He knew Jiang Wang possessed some skill in sonic attacks.The Eight Notes Burning Sea Dao technique contained profound mastery in sonic arts.But he absolutely had not known that Jiang Wang had mastered sonic arts to such a degree, that a single casual cry could shatter his Shadow-Shifting Silence Array!The grim situation he and Xiang Bei had anticipated before the battle had arrived—They were now exposed to the sight of the Huodou horde!If they could not eliminate Jiang Wang immediately, they would be eliminated from the realm as well.He was about to call out a warning, but Xiang Bei had already acted.The Huodou around the lava lake, suddenly turning their gazes upon them, led Xiang Bei to the same immediate conclusion as Tai Yin.In that moment, a sun-like brilliance burst forth from his heavy pupils, blinding and dazzling.His already terrifyingly muscular physique surged again, the blue veins like dragons and serpents seemingly about to explode, as if utterly unable to contain the blood rushing within.The Qi of the Soul Devouring Ghost boiled incessantly, transforming into various illusory divine and demonic forms.He was not attempting to initiate a soul battle and invade Jiang Wang’s Heavenly Palace. Instead, with potent soul power, he interfered with the Soul Devouring Tyrant Body, pushing his physical strength to a new level."Get! The! Hell! Down!"He roared thus.His arms’ muscles bulged like mountains, gripping the halberd shaft and pulling downwards.As if there were a ring in the heavens, he would tear down the azure sky!He truly plummeted straight down.For as he exerted force, Jiang Wang had already released his grip.Thus, the spearhead of the Heaven-Shaking Halberd was pulled from this young body.Blood flowed even more profusely and unrestrainedly, and light shone through the wound in his waist and abdomen.Jiang Wang's speed, however, surged a notch!He seemed utterly oblivious to pain.Amidst the torrent of divine techniques from the Five Dragons Sealing Heaven, he surged against the flow.Though his body was broken, he was valiant and unimpeded.The wound is severe, but I feel light and unburdened!Bearing that enormous wound, he charged straight towards Tai Yin.Tai Yin! Can you withstand this?!Tai Yin, high in the sky, responded directly with a slap, covering the formation plate.Endless dazzling golden light erupted, rapidly forming a barrier behind the Five Dragons Sealing Heaven technique.This was a formation, the Golden Light Barrier!True gold cannot be ground away, and the barrier cannot be broken.Xiang Bei, who had been pulled off the Heaven-Shaking Halberd, also stopped his descent in time.A flick of the halberd blade, and the blood drops were shaken off.He stomped on the air, causing it to explode, and thus surged back towards the high sky.How easy could it be to escape his Xiang Bei's Eight Desolations No Return Halberd momentum!His eyes, like two suns horizontally aligned, were blindingly bright at this moment, impossible to look at directly.How could he be shown a back? How dared he be treated with such contempt?Even Jiang Qingyang would pay the price for this slight!The battle escalated to its climax in an instant.Before him lay the Five Dragons Sealing Heaven and the Golden Light Barrier, and behind him were the Soul Devouring Tyrant Body and the Heaven-Shaking Halberd.Who could easily extricate themselves?At least Tai Yin, placing himself in the situation, could not find a way to break the deadlock for a while.But he only heard, from Jiang Wang who was charging directly at him, an enraged shout—"Three Forks! Protect my carriage!"Tai Yin, high in the sky, was bewildered for a moment.What kind of spell was "Three Forks"?What did "Protect my carriage" mean?Was it the kind of protection I understood?Did you somehow become the boss of the Huodou?But immediately after, a powerful roar, full of might, came from the highest peak of the volcanic island, as if in response.It was the voice of the Huodou King Beast!Tai Yin, in his haste, turned his head and was startled to the point of his liver and guts splitting!That Huodou King Beast with a three-pronged tail was approaching with terrifying speed, traversing the air.At first glance, it was still far away; at the second glance, it was already close.It actually came to protect Jiang Wang's carriage!"Three Forks!" Jiang Wang casually pointed at Xiang Bei, who was flying upwards: "Kill him!"He himself, however, continued to control his sword momentum, still charging towards Tai Yin.Three Forks naturally did not understand human speech, but Jiang Wang's aura, movements, and the killing intent on his body conveyed the meaning clearly.And it was indeed furious.These bugs that had crawled out from who knows where actually dared to sneak into its kingdom and kill the cook of the Huodou King!You still had to look at the owner before hitting a dog!Leaping down from the mountain peak, a forward pounce immediately crossed the distance of space, its sharp teeth already close.No matter how brave Xiang Bei was, he was clear about the gap in strength between himself and the Huodou King Beast, and knew that he was absolutely no match.But fortunately, the Huodou King Beast could be communicated with.Since it could be communicated with, it was not yet a dead end!Since Jiang Wang could reach an agreement with the Huodou King Beast, why couldn't he?What did the Xiang family lack?Everything Jiang Wang could produce, the Xiang family could produce.What Jiang Wang could not produce, the Xiang family could also produce!"Whatever he can give you, I will give tenfold!"Xiang Bei immediately shouted, and used his soul power to transmit a wisp of goodwill.But he only heard a 'crack'.Or perhaps he didn't even hear this sound, but he could no longer be sure...Because the entire world had fallen silent.Ignorance, unawareness, lack of perception.He had been simply slapped off his entire head by the Huodou King Beast!To Three Forks, it completely failed to understand what this two-legged beast was shouting about, and it even dared to foolishly challenge the king with soul power!It made it lose even the thought of playing around, and it directly delivered a killing blow.Xiang Bei's head exploded, and his body was instantly protected by the rules of the Mountain and Sea Realm, vanishing from its original location.This scene was naturally clearly imprinted in Tai Yin's eyes.In the original battle plan, Xiang Bei had left behind some contingency measures, and they had developed many plans to deal with various situations...But the appearance of the Huodou King Beast, directly overpowering and slaying him with crushing force, severed all subsequent plans.Now, what Tai Yin needed to consider, and could consider, was only himself.At this moment, Xiang Bei's body had disappeared, and the imposing Huodou King Beast stood suspended over the lava lake, a mere flick of its tail sweeping away all the remnants of the Dao technique on the lake surface.Jiang Wang, draped in a cloak of flames, was still surging against the divine technique torrent, still rapidly closing in on him.But Tai Yin's heart was calmer than ever before.The art of formations was a terrifying gold-swallowing beast, consuming even more resources than the art of talismans.The creation of formation plates could be said to have extended the life of the formation lineage, but the formation plates themselves signified the arrival of an even more terrifying era of gold consumption.To what extent was the resource consumption of formations terrifying?When Uncle Tai Hua was alive, he would not easily engage in combat with others. Every move had to be carefully calculated beforehand in terms of gains. Even a venerable True Lord had to be so financially constrained!And his entry into the Mountain and Sea Realm this time was with great hope, and he proactively offered to travel with Xiang Bei.Since entering the Mountain and Sea Realm, the materials for setting up the Six Paths Divine Prison Array, the numerous formation plates that had been destroyed... the resources consumed were already immeasurable!To gain nothing in the Mountain and Sea Realm meant a huge loss.For the current Tai clan, this was absolutely not a loss that could be easily dismissed. Even if he was a core figure of the next generation of the Tai clan, he would inevitably face criticism.So why did he insist on seeking out the Huodou King Beast, and why did he gamble on this?It was the timing, the destiny, and the situation.That slap from the Huodou King Beast directly shattered all his hopes.It announced the end of his journey in the Mountain and Sea Realm.When the outcome was already so clear, his heart, which had been filled with both gains and losses, instead settled down.He could now clearly observe the opponent who was approaching with his sword.What kind of divine ability was the Sword Immortal?After the Yellow River Grand Meeting, the experts of the various nations had analyzed it countless times.This divine ability, where the sword embodies myriad techniques, was a typical divine ability achieved through the person.The stronger the person, the stronger the sword.And how was Jiang Wang's sword?Judging from his performance on the Observation River Platform, it was already close to peak level in the Inner Mansion realm.Certainly not weak, but it couldn't suppress the heroes of the world.What was most terrifying about him was his unparalleled talent in combat.Analyzing each of his battles on the Observation River Platform, he seemed to always make the best choices within the battle.Some choices, at that moment, didn't seem particularly brilliant, but in the subsequent rounds of development, they bloomed with astonishing brilliance.He had studied Jiang Wang!And he believed he understood Jiang Wang.At this moment, Jiang Wang displayed the form of a Sword Immortal, destroying mountains with a single sword in his strongest state, easily piercing his Five Dragons Sealing Heaven technique...He was not surprised.The formation plate Golden Light Barrier stood in front of him, as the final defense line.He knew very well that this defense line could not stop Jiang Wang.He also understood that after consuming so many formation plates, and unable to set up a formation on the spot at this moment, he was not qualified to engage in a frontal battle with Jiang Wang.Since the Huodou King Beast was so diligently helping Jiang Wang kill, he had completely lost all hope of winning this battle. All the Nine Chapters Jade Disc, all the treasures of the Mountain and Sea Realm, had become like smoke, no longer to be thought of.But he wanted to prove himself.As a Xia countryman, to prove himself in front of a Qi countryman.As a direct descendant of the Tai clan, to prove himself in front of a Qi country prodigy.As Tai Yin himself, to prove himself in front of Jiang Wang.He wanted to drag Jiang Wang out of the realm with him!Must not rush...Thinking this, he formed a hidden hand seal with his left hand, flipped out a brass-colored circular formation plate with his right hand, and leaped backward, flying higher and faster.He displayed an attitude of wanting to escape from this place.And Jiang Wang's speed indeed increased.The Character Formation Sword pierced through everything.The tip of the Changxiang Si sword finally touched the Golden Light Barrier.Sharp sword energy and stubborn golden light collided millions of times in an instant.Cleaving, cleaving, cleaving.The long sword advanced.Again advanced.Advanced repeatedly.Irresistible.The Golden Light Barrier became indented, and continued to indent deeper.Finally... with a 'crack', it shattered.At this moment, Jiang Wang's left eye, which flowed with the color of immortal fiery gold, instantly turned crimson.The Eye of Qianyang, soul plummeting westward!Almost at the same instant, Tai Yin released the hand seal in his left hand, and pressed down the formation plate directly with his right hand.In the realm of the soul, a brilliant sun descended from the sky, directly blasting a lonely Heavenly Palace with the aid of the Single Rider Entering Formation Diagram.At that time, the four directions were vast and indistinct.Looking up or down, there was no sight of heaven and earth, only the blazing sun falling directly onto the Heavenly Palace. Its momentum was to utterly destroy the soul, dismantle this palace, and sever the foundation of Dao Yuan in one fell swoop.The blazing sun smashed down, directly shattering the Heavenly Palace and falling within.It was so easy to penetrate the soul defense; the direct struggle between the two sides' soul power afterwards was almost without suspense. After all, the gap in soul power was so vast...But at this moment, in the realm of the soul, a formation diagram depicting myriad demons of the heavens suddenly drifted down, pressing precisely onto Tai Yin's Heavenly Palace, blocking the opening, and even instantly reconstructing the Heavenly Palace, imprisoning the soul power that Jiang Wang had unleashed into the Heavenly Palace!This was the Myriad Demons of the Heavens Diagram that Xiang Bei had specifically left in Tai Yin's Heavenly Palace before the battle.Its original purpose was to compensate for Tai Yin's relative weakness in soul power compared to Jiang Wang, making this weakness a trap.After Xiang Bei's death, for the severely injured Jiang Wang, what was the best battle choice?Tai Yin believed it was a soul battle!Although his body had suffered severe injuries, Jiang Wang's soul was still in its peak state.He was certain that Jiang Wang would initiate a soul attack...And he had waited for it!In the battlefield of the Heavenly Palace.As soon as the Myriad Demons of the Heavens Diagram appeared, boundless demonic energy immediately invaded the core of Jiang Wang's soul.But then, the manifestation of Jiang Wang's soul was bathed in the immortal fiery golden light.Radiant like a god or Buddha, myriad demons could not invade!This was the divine ability, Red Heart.Never to be disturbed by alien wills.At that time, in the ancient demon cave, the demon of demons in the Myriad Realms Wasteland Tomb could not corrupt this heart.Now, what was a mere Myriad Demons of the Heavens Diagram, especially without Xiang Bei's subsequent support?At this moment, the manifestation of his soul was like a golden body, and with a backhand sword, using the manifestation of the Changxiang Si sword spirit, he easily shattered this Myriad Demons of the Heavens Diagram.Making Tai Yin's Heavenly Palace open a skylight once more!Asking the gentleman to enter the urn... had turned into leading a wolf into the house.And outside, Jiang Wang's actions showed no sign of delay.In Tai Yin's horrified eyes, the sword blade moved horizontally, directly slicing off half of his right palm, and also severing his left hand!Meeting Jiang Wang's still calm gaze.Feeling the predicament both inside and outside his body.A sudden realization dawned in Tai Yin's heart—"I wanted to cut off thirty percent of his soul origin and take him out of the realm with me. And he wants to bypass the rules of the Mountain and Sea Realm and completely annihilate me here!"
