The Elysium Across Deep Space

Chapter 477: The Mighty God That Was Split Apart



Chapter 477: The Mighty God That Was Split Apart

In the six grand palaces, two palace lords spoke up. The undying Lei Tuo and the mighty god Yuan Lei both demanded that Wang Xuan leave behind the Book of Ages.  

"I don't have it. It's not with me," Wang Xuan denied outright. He had dismantled the entire book and thrown it into the void where no one outside could find it. Overall, these people were just speculating, and he was steadfastly denying it.  

At this stage, he indeed wanted to leave and just sit on a spaceship in outer space to watch the mighty beings battle it out as an outsider. He did not fear the undying Lei Tuo, but now even the peerless transcendents were in a bloody battle fighting over treasures. It was undoubtedly the most dangerous moment. The Sword of Mortal and the Divine Palace had long been refined by others, even the Ascension Banner had found a new master. The owners could tear through the great veil at any time and start attacking directly.  

There had always been rumors that if the main bodies of the peerless immortals and mighty gods that wielded treasures in hand came to the mortal realm, they could protect the Earth Immortal Dao, which was terrifying! At this moment, the immortals and gods were all in a bloodbath. It was reaching the most terrifying time node at the end of the myth. The immortal realm and the Great Barrier were in a great war, it was in total chaos.  

Wang Xuan didn't want to get involved in the whirlpool, staying out of it was best. Previously, Heng Jun was the best example. He had held the Ascension Banner, but in the end, he died. The ones who stick out their necks often get chopped off first. Although he had treasures, he had other plans. He hoped to keep them for use at critical moments, like smashing evil dragons or killing peerless transcendents. It wasn't suitable to reveal them too early.

Otherwise, the few who controlled the treasures would probably come out and directly kill him. They’ll see him as a newcomer without a strong foundation. Overall, he felt he wasn't strong enough yet as he was not capable of directly killing opponents during confrontations.  

"Do you think we’ll believe you just like that?" said Lei Tuo. He didn't want to let this opportunity slip by. He breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Wang Xuan had failed the tribulation crossing. He insisted on personally searching in Wang Xuan's Life Soil.  

"Do you want to die?" said Wang Xuan while looking at him. The Life Soil was not a place others could simply interfere. That was the fundamental of a transcendent. Then, he said coldly, "Do you think I'm weak and vulnerable after failing the tribulation crossing? Don't forget that not long ago, there was a God of Light who didn't believe me, and he ended up being slaughtered by me." This kind of manners fits the impression he gives. Although he had an accident, he was still young and had once been a godslayer at the eleventh stage after all. He should have had some temper and impulsiveness.  

"Give it a try!" said Lei Tuo, the undying, as he stepped forward. Although he had dropped a level, he was still the incarnation of an undying behind the Great Barrier. Moreover, what he saw was that the former god-slaying youth had many wounds on his spirit, and his Dao foundation was torn apart. It was even more severe than his own condition.  

"Senior Xu, please……kill him!" Wang Xuan spoke, looking at the Grand Alchemist Xu Fu. He would naturally be happy if there was an extraordinary immortal who was willing to do it for him.  

"Stand behind me," said Xu Fu as he nodded. Although he felt this kid was troublesome, he still valued talent and was willing to stand up for him as he was the one who dragged him here.  

Chen Yongjie was speechless. He suddenly felt a little sorry for this Daoist, who was working for others for no reason and was even taking the lead. Lei Tuo's expression changed slightly. He could handle a failed tribulation-crosser, but he felt unsure facing the incarnation of such an extraordinary immortal.  

"Xu Fu, is this necessary? We just want him to leave behind the Book of Ages. We do not want to harm him. Why do you need to muddy the waters?" Yuan Lei spoke up.  

"The Book of Ages isn't with me," Wang Xuan said.  

"You heard it, he has explained. Make way, or else you'll be my enemy!" Xu Fu said coldly while dressed in a straw coat, wearing a bamboo hat, and carrying a fishing rod. His thin body straightened and made him look tall.  

Someone behind spoke up, "Xu Fu, Yuan Lei and I will talk with you. Lei Tuo, you go and see if the Book of Ages is hidden in that kid's Life Soil." This was a gray-haired person who was now the mighty god of the Dao Shielding Palace. He walked step by step and stood with Yuan Lei, facing Xu Fu together.  

Xu Fu's expression changed slightly, but he still remained firm, saying, "Lei Tuo, come over too. The three of you talk with me."  

In front of the ruins, Lei Tuo's golden hair fluttered. With a faint smile on his face, he said, "Do you really want this?"  

Wang Xuan came out. How could he let Xu Fu face three major powerhouses alone? He would naturally be happy to watch from the sidelines if the Daoist could easily deal with Lei Tuo without effort, but things were different now. Xu Fu might be in danger.  

Covered in bloodstains and with his armor in tatters and charred, Wang Xuan walked firmly and said, "Immortal? Come over here. Let's talk. If you win, you can even take my Life Soil, but be careful not to let me slay gods again!"  

"This fits the temperament of a young man, huh? Lei Tuo, go and check his Life Soil," a gray-haired man, the powerhouse from the Shielding Dao Palace, said confidently. He then joined forces with Yuan Lei to stop Xu Fu.  

The Daoist's face turned icy cold. He gripped the fishing rod in his hand and was preparing to use force. He was genuinely afraid that Wang Xuan would meet an untimely death.  

Outside, many transcendents were discussing fervently as such an event had occurred. The gods had joined forces to pressure the young man to hand over the Book of Ages, signaling a resurgence of conflict. Naturally, individuals like Qing Mu, Wu Yin, and others were indignant and worried about Wang Xuan. Someone was rudely demanding to search his Life Soil after his failed tribulation. They were truly bullying him. Chen Yongjie remained quiet because he knew Wang Xuan's true situation.

How could he be a weakling? He was strong enough to contend with dragons.  

Wang Xuan looked at Xu Fu and said, "Senior, you don't need to intervene. I will talk to Lei Tuo. I'm prepared to kill him!" He looked very serious and solemn, which made undying Lei Tuo's eyes flash with killing intent. The atmosphere suddenly became tense. Many creatures from the Great Barrier fell silent for a moment. They wanted to ask, Are you serious? Was he really planning to kill a powerhouse? Had he become addicted to god-slaying?  

Wang Xuan was indeed serious. Although he pretended to be heavily injured by the heavenly tribulation, his intention was to escape danger and not to have any dealings with the transcendent beings, treasures, bloodstained Great Barrier, or gods.

But if he couldn't achieve that and couldn't leave immediately, he would also want to find out who had the strongest killing intent towards him. If there was no escape, he would directly kill them all!  

Not wanting to say much, Lei Tuo approached Wang Xuan. Terrifying beams emitted from his golden pupils and was accompanied by a roar. Just like that, he had formed a prison around the ruins. His strength was indeed formidable. He was afraid that Wang Xuan would escape, so he took action to show that he intended to deal with Wang Xuan directly.  

In the void, golden beams that were emitted from Lei Tuo's divine eyes interwoven. The delineating terrifying trajectories with the residual traces of order intended to lock Wang Xuan in place.

After coughing, Wang Xuan straightened his body. He had nothing to say while facing the undying. A silver-white spirit chain appeared in his hand. This was Zheng Yuan Tian's weapon, it was originally bestowed upon Zheng Wu. It was one of the top weapons among the divine treasures that was seized by Wang Xuan.  

Suddenly, a fierce battle erupted. Wang Xuan's real entity clashed fiercely with the divine chain that was made from the opponent's concentrated gaze. Brilliant light burst forth in the void. Divine gold and runes flashed together. The entire ruins were covered in astonishing chain patterns, it was like countless galaxies spanning across the sky. This area suddenly became extremely terrifying. The trans material boiled and the entire ruins were obscured, becoming a cage-like battlefield with divine chains crisscrossing.  

Everyone's attention was drawn in, even the mighty gods were no exception. They all felt that this young man was indeed strong. He still dared to fight so fiercely despite his injuries. Many people were very nervous and were closely watching this battle. Zhao Qinghan, Wu Yin, Little Fox, and others had hoped that Wang Xuan would win and slay another god.

On the other hand, the disciples and followers of the undying from the six great palaces hoped that Lei Tuo would forcefully suppress the young man in the mortal realm.  

Only Chen Yongjie remained the most composed. In fact, he wanted to say that someone was shadowboxing and was not really going all out. Therefore, he wasn't nervous at all and had the leisure to look around in the crowd.

He was searching for his master among the people from the six great palaces. Soon, he noticed a young man behind the crowd who looked to be in his twenties and he seemed very familiar!  

"Could he be my master?" muttered Chen Yongjie as his heart shook. That person looked a lot like his master. Thirty years ago, his master already had white hair and a white beard when he disappeared. He hesitated at that moment as Chen Yongjie had never seen his master's youthful appearance.  

Boom!  

The collapsed giant palace shook violently. The entire ruins were glowing, crisscrossed by one divine chain and beam after another. A densely woven large net was being constructed. It was like a galaxy was descending. Everyone retreated. Nearby ancient trees broke into clusters, and yellow leaves fluttered in the sky.

The shadowy spectators remained silent while they observed the battle solemnly. It surprised and astonished everyone as the young man who failed his tribulation unexpectedly possessed such skills and had fought with Lei Tuo to this extent.

Among the ruins, the tall and mighty Lei Tuo grew more vigorous as the battle progressed. Every strand of his hair carried residual power of order. His mastery of techniques indeed exceeded expectations. With him at the center, chains spread out densely. They were constructed of energy, but they looked no different from those made of divine gold. They were dazzling and awe-inspiring.

Later on, even his golden hair extended and glowed. They became extensions of the power of order, spreading throughout the void and aimed to imprison Wang Xuan. Wang Xuan used the silver-white spirit chain to protect himself. He had created a soft space around him. He then stood in the center and his expression turned particularly grave as he stepped on the rubble.  

"It's time to end this," Lei Tuo said as a golden knife that was only a little over a foot long appeared in his hand. He swung it forcefully and broke through the mist, causing the void to collapse. The blinding beams of light burst forth and were aiming to slay Wang Xuan.  

He believed that the cage he had constructed had trapped Wang Xuan. Now was the time to use the undying knife to kill the young man. To his surprise, a brilliant fist gleamed amid Wang Xuan's violent coughing. With a loud bang, it shattered the residual power of order, causing a massive explosion. All the divine chains broke, and Lei Tuo coughed up blood as he staggered backward.  

Clattering!  

The spirit chain in Wang Xuan's hand surged forward. With a thud, it broke through Lei Tuo's protective magic, pierced through layers of his golden light and penetrated his body. Wang Xuan's right hand pulled back, causing the silver-white chain to straighten like a spear. He then used it to pierce through Lei Tuo's body, impaling him in the end. Lei Tuo felt a sharp pain in his chest. He looked down and saw his heart pierced. His blood flowed and even the golden hair that fell from his head was stained red by it.  

"Ahhh……" Lei Tuo shouted. He struggled violently and tried to break free. However, he failed to do so and was stuck to the spirit chain.  

With a bang, Wang Xuan shook the chain vigorously. The entire silver-white spirit chain shook violently, causing the undying Lei Tuo to shatter into pieces. Even his spirit shattered in midair because this was Zheng's extraordinary weapon that was named the Spirit Chain. It was very powerful at killing spiritual bodies.  

Puff!  

One of Lei Tuo's spirit fragments tried to escape but was directly impaled by Wang Xuan's spirit chain. In the end, Lei Tuo died completely with the ground completely covered in the blood of an undying.  

"He…… has once again slain a god!" someone shouted.

"After failing his tribulation, he still managed to fight off a powerful undying?!" another exclaimed. The scene was in chaos. Many people from the grand palaces, including those from the Great Barrier, were stunned. They felt a chill run down their spines.

Was the mortal world so dangerous? Someone managed to slay gods consecutively in just a day!  

Every spaceship in outer space had captured the scene and was shocked. Despite suffering severe injuries, Wang Xuan still managed to kill a top undying at the critical moment?  

"He truly deserves to be a genius standing at the pinnacle of the mythological theory. He's really strong!" someone exclaimed.  

"Victory! This is fantastic!" Joyful voices echoed from the spaceship where Qing Mu and the others were.  

At the decaying Great Barrier, the faces of the lord of several grand palaces didn't look good. Both Yuan Lei and the gray-haired man had cold expressions. Even they found it hard to believe that Lei Tuo had been killed. Wang Xuan played with the golden divine knife. It was an excellent treasure, an extraordinary item worth collecting. He swung it continuously and dazzling knife light radiated from it.

Then, he coughed, as if he was trying to suppress the urge to vomit blood. Of course, he wasn't actually coughing up blood. He was just pretending. He covered his mouth because he didn't want to show them. Why should he waste even a drop of blood by coughing it up for them to see?  

The gray-haired man stepped forward, his pace was slow but firm. This master of the Shielding Dao Palace was going to take action personally. He was an extremely powerful god! Xu Fu blocked his way immediately.

The goddess, Yuan Lei, began to move as well. Her body was covered with resplendent golden armor that emitted a rosy light. Although her figure was exquisite, her delicate face was filled with coldness and murderous intent. The Daoist wanted to intercept her too.  

Wang Xuan spoke up, "Senior Xu, let one of them come over. I want to settle things with them."  

Xu Fu shook his head, not wanting him to take action.  

"Senior, please rest assured. Although I failed my tribulation, I have gained some insights from the five thunderbolts. There is a high probability that I can protect myself," he said firmly, insisting that Xu Fu shouldn't intervene.  

Finally, Yuan Lei approached. Her slender feet caused the entire ruins to tremble as she landed. Her armor emitted a rosy glow, just like a phoenix bathing in fire. She had a good relationship with the God of Light herself, and Lei Tuo who also stood with her was also killed by Wang Xuan. She decided to take action personally.  

Wang Xuan spoke, "I'm telling you the truth. I don't want to fight you. I just want to go home and retire. Why do you have to be so aggressive? Many more people will die if you continue to force me!"  

"The one who failed the tribulation, let me see what tricks you have in your sleeves. Actually, I never intended to let you go. Did you think you could just leave after killing the God of Light?" said Yuan Lei. She had dropped the pretense, her killing intent permeated the air and her beautiful face was covered in frost.  

Wang Xuan said, "Hmm, I am injured and can't hold on for long. Let's settle this between us in one move. I will undoubtedly die miserably if you can withstand it. If you can't, I might slaughter a god once again. This is the Dao Sword Light that I have cultivated for many years. Even though I have failed, it has become much stronger after being tempered by the tribulation."  

Yuan Lei didn't speak but straightaway attacked. Carrying a torrent of scarlet light, her armor roared as she rushed toward Wang Xuan. Wang Xuan's right hand instantly lit up and was merging various attack techniques such as the Mental Light, the Ascendent Fist, the Heavenly Tribulation Song, the Dao-splitting Sword, and the Demonic Embryo Technique into one. He was prepared to explode.  

He didn't say anything wrong. He was indeed preparing to determine the fight in one strike. He was unleashing his strongest move!  

Swoosh!  

Yuan Lei turned into a stream of light. She darted forward and then swiftly moved sideways to avoid Wang Xuan's attack. She wanted to provoke Wang Xuan into unleashing that one strike, then slowly deal with him afterwards.  

Wang Xuan grinned, saying, "A god is afraid? Trying to bait me into making that strike and then dodge it in advance." He shook his head, taunting her. All the transcendents watching were surprised.

Yuan Lei didn't dare to confront him directly?

Someone spoke up, "Since he has said that a prolonged battle is not suitable and the strongest strike determines life and death, the most powerful god naturally doesn't need to facilitate him and wants to guide him into making that one strike."  

Wang Xuan refrained from attacking and still did not make a move. Yuan Lei couldn't bear the humiliation.

As a god, was she afraid of a mortal?

Especially with many people looking at her strangely. In the end, she decided to take action.  

Boom!  

The sky was filled with the light of the gods as she charged forward. It was also at this moment that Wang Xuan unleashed his full power without reservation. A dazzling beam of light tore through the air. It was blended with sword light, lightning, the Ascendent Fist, and more. It was like a sword of order descending from the heavens. With a splatter of blood, the mighty god Yuan Lei was split into two by the blow!
