“A last-ditch struggle!”
Wang Chong coldly snorted and jumped off the Earth Devil’s head. Although the Earth Devil had appeared intimidating, Wang Chong had known as soon as it began to move that it was on its last breath.
Righteous Alliance Vice Lord Xie Guangting suddenly stepped forward and asked, “Young Master Wang, what plan do you have?”
This was a question that was on everyone else’s minds as well, and they all turned to look.
“It’s not the right time to talk about it yet, and we need to try to see if it’s effective. However, I might need all of your help!” Wang Chong said.
He was looking up the entire time, to where the two dazzling balls of golden light had once more collided with an earthshaking boom. It seemed like the Origin Immortal Lord’s injuries were not as severe as they had seemed, and True Lord Yellow Dragon still had some way to go to defeat him.
But if this continued, the Origin Immortal Lord’s defeat was inevitable.
Senior, I hope this can help you...
Wang Chong took one last glance and then stepped forward, placing his right palm on the Earth Devil’s massive head.
He closed his eyes and sent out an immense stream of Psychic Energy that no other martial artist present could possibly produce, which hurtled into the Earth Devil’s head.
Now that the monster was dead, Wang Chong could easily find out where its true body was. Boom! It took only the blink of an eye for Wang Chong’s Psychic Energy to enter its mind.
Just as expected!
After a rough search, Wang Chong was certain.
The Earth Devil had just died, so its mind had not completely dispersed, and all the seals in its body were still completely preserved. Wang Chong’s tangible Psychic Energy was able to flow through every nerve and meridian of its body.
If his guess was correct, he would definitely find something within the Earth Devil’s mind.
He soon found a chestnut-shaped mental fragment at the center of the Earth Devil’s forehead.
“Found it!”
This mental fragment was completely different from the rest of the Earth Devil’s dark and chaotic mind. It was like a crystallized soul, made of pure and translucent mental energy. This level of purity far surpassed anything that the Goat, Deer, or Tiger Immortals could achieve.
“This is it!”
Wang Chong’s eyes flashed. If his guess was right, this was a mental fragment that True Lord Yellow Dragon had left inside the Earth Devil.
If True Lord Yellow Dragon wanted to control the chaotic mind of the Earth Devil, he would have had to leave behind a mental fragment. Moreover, Wang Chong had seen True Lord Yellow Dragon close up in the Origin Immortal Palace, and this icy soul matched him exactly.
The moment he found it, he immediately sent a boundless surge of Psychic Energy into the mental fragment.
Bang!
After what seemed like both a second and like countless epochs, Wang Chong’s Psychic Energy entered another world. He could now see a thin line, thinner than even a spider thread. One end of this line was connected to the mental fragment in the Earth Devil’s mind, with the other end stretching far above into the distance.
Wang Chong’s Psychic Energy surged along this thread, shooting upward like a lightning bolt and soon vanishing into the air.
......
A few moments prior, the moment Wang Chong discovered the mental fragment in the Earth Devil’s mind, the battle within the dazzling golden light had reached a fever pitch. This battle was taking place on a level far beyond the understanding of most martial artists.
The two bobbed and weaved within the golden light, sending ripples through the fabric of space. Several dozen afterimages of True Lord Yellow Dragon and the Origin Immortal Lord existed at the same moment, and it was impossible to tell which one was the real one.
Upon closer inspection, one would see that countless illusions had appeared around these two figures: soaring mountains, surging rivers, howling meteors, and even vast deserts. Although these were illusions, they appeared so real that it seemed like mountains and rivers really were being hurled around.
A martial artist could devote their entire life to the pursuit of strength and still not reach this level.
“Yellow Dragon, you are bound to fail! No matter how much effort you expend, you can’t change anything! None of you can!”
The Origin Immortal Lord’s voice resounded through the golden light.
“Hahaha, you speak of that Child of Destiny? After hiding here for so long, you finally got to meet that Child of Destiny of yours! One thousand years! To think that your ultimate goal would be him.”
True Lord Yellow Dragon was heartily laughing, but his eyes were cold and callous.
“But your hopes are foreordained to fall short. After sitting around for one thousand years, your body has begun to decay. Once I kill you, I’ll use one finger to crush that Child of Destiny like an ant!”
True Lord Yellow Dragon’s voice was tinged with murder and brimming with disdain. No matter who this Child of Destiny was, he was just an ant in True Lord Yellow Dragon’s eyes. He didn’t even want to lower himself to personally killing him.
“There are some things that do not turn according to your will. Yellow Dragon, no matter what you do, you can’t kill him this time, not even if he’s right in front of you, not even though you sealed off this entire area,” the Origin Immortal Lord sternly said.
A blazing strike one thousand times brighter than the sun blasted a large hole through his body, but his mouth continued to move. Both the body and his talking head soon vanished like bubbles, while even more Origin Immortal Lords manifested in other places.
These two were using techniques that most martial artists couldn’t even imagine, much less understand.
“Haha, is it because you saw him in your divinations of destiny?”
True Lord Yellow Dragon jeered and scoffed.
“Destiny can only hold down those caught within its flow, but it is useless against gods. No matter what you saw in your divinations, I can easily kill him and make all your predictions false!”
“You’re wrong!”
The Origin Immortal Lord’s words left him stupefied.
“My divinations can no longer predict his future, but it is impossible for you to kill him. If it were so easy, he would not be called the Child of Destiny.”
True Lord Yellow Dragon was startled at first, but then he broke into uproarious laughter.
“HAHAHA! What a fine Child of Destiny this must be! After hearing all this, I’ll have to kill him, no matter what!”
Cruelty tinged True Lord Yellow Dragon’s voice.
But then his laughter came to an abrupt halt. True Lord Yellow Dragon’s brow frowned as he cast his gaze down. For a moment, he had felt something very odd.
“What’s going on?”
This thought had just gone through his mind when a powerful Psychic Energy that was not his blasted into his mind.
“Brat! It’s you!” True Lord Yellow Dragon called out in alarm, his face grimacing.
Let alone True Lord Yellow Dragon, even the Origin Immortal Lord was surprised.
Just as expected!
All this was in line with Wang Chong’s conjectures. Using the connection between True Lord Yellow Dragon and the mental fragment, Wang Chong had been able to directly attack True Lord Yellow Dragon’s mind. Of course, in normal circumstances, it would have been impossible for Wang Chong to penetrate the mind of someone this powerful.
But when True Lord Yellow Dragon created the Earth Devil, he had created a flaw in his defense.
So this is his mental world!
This attack had gone far more smoothly than expected. In just a few moments, Wang Chong had entered True Lord Yellow Dragon’s mental world.
Unlike the dark and chaotic mind of the Earth Devil, True Lord Yellow Dragon’s mental world was bright and brimming with heat. This entirely new world was made of countless dazzling balls of light, each like a blazing sun. It made him think back to the ancient legend of the ten suns1.
“Ignorant brat! How audacious!” A buzzing voice resounded in Wang Chong’s mind. True Lord Yellow Dragon had finally spoken.
“If I weren’t so audacious, how could I dare to strike against you so-called Celestials! I’ll let you experience for yourself the strength of mortals!”
Wang Chong coldly laughed.
“Brat, you’re seeking death!”
True Lord Yellow Dragon was infuriated by these words, and the mental world began to sway as Psychic Energy converged.
This strike was so powerful that the rest of the world seemed drained of color.
Wang Chong had a decent cultivation level, and he had the Psychic Energy that was five times stronger than before and had reached a tangible level. But there was still a gap between him and True Lord Yellow Dragon.
True Lord Yellow Dragon felt that dealing with someone like Wang Chong would be as easy as blowing away dust.
But True Lord Yellow Dragon had deeply underestimated Wang Chong. Since he had decided to infiltrate True Lord Yellow Dragon’s mental world, how could he come unprepared?
Standing atop the Earth Devil’s head, Wang Chong mightily bellowed, “Song Yuanyi! Xie Guangting! Black Yin Ancestor! Myriad Ghost Ancestor! Lone Silence Ancestor! Master! Village Chief! This is the moment! Give me all your power!”
Long before this, his Psychic Energy had spread into several dozen strands that linked him to all the present top-class experts of the martial arts world.
Upon hearing Wang Chong’s call, all of them immediately gathered up their Psychic Energy and sent it to Wang Chong. These Psychic Energies gathered together in Wang Chong’s body and then flew along that invisible line into True Lord Yellow Dragon’s mind.
