"The Divine Sword warship is about to enter the atmosphere and requests permission to land at Cangquan Base."
"The Divine Sword is back so soon?" Old Fang was somewhat surprised. It had only been a few days since it left, so it shouldn't have returned so quickly.
"Perhaps they came for the Feather God. After all, everyone has been hoping for a deity for nearly a hundred years, especially him." Daisy Yu revealed a look of reminiscence.
"That's right, Honghong should prepare to guide the Divine Sword to land," Old Fang sighed.
"Okay," Honghong replied, and then slowly opened the gate to the base's atrium.
Then, a giant warship billowing thick smoke plummeted from the sky.
"Danger! The spaceship is descending too fast," Honghong warned.
“Something’s not right. Honghong, immediately close the base gates and confirm the Divine Sword’s level two password.” Old Fang’s expression changed slightly.
"Could it be that the spaceship has malfunctioned?" Daisy asked, puzzled.
"Impossible! Sound the alarm! Everyone, prepare for battle!" Old Fang seemed to have suddenly become a different person, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
Seeing this, Daisy also drew her own elemental dagger, "What exactly happened? What happened to the Divine Sword!"
"Danger! Danger! All personnel prepare for impact! All personnel prepare for impact! The Divine Sword is out of control! The Divine Sword is out of control!" Hong Hong's voice shouted over the loudspeaker.
Then.
boom!
Rumble...
The giant warship crashed down, like a sharp sword piercing into the Cangquan base, breaking through layer after layer of defenses, and finally reaching the core area.
Boom boom boom...
After a series of explosions, the Cangquan base was immediately left in a mess.
Then, squads of soldiers charged out of the warship and kept firing, using what were clearly elemental weapons.
That wasn't all. A golden rift opened up in the air, and a giant claw emerged from it, attempting to widen the crack.
"What is that?" Daisy Yu cleaved an enemy bio-engineered soldier in two with a single slash.
Old Fang, wielding a sword, was also engaged in fierce combat. "Oh no! That's the gate to the underworld! Monsters are coming!"
The giant monster couldn't get through yet, but many underworld soldiers dressed in black armor flew out from the gaps, howling and killing anyone they saw.
The base's defenders immediately began to crumble. Fang Lao was seriously injured in the attack of several ghost soldiers. Si Yu went to rescue him but was also surrounded and her situation became extremely critical.
Suddenly, a long howl drowned out the ghostly wails of Cangquan.
"You dare disturb my sweet dreams, you all deserve to die!" Xiang Yu glanced around and saw one ghost soldier and bio-engineered warrior after another explode.
Daisy and Old Fang stared blankly at everything. They had just experienced the strength of those ghost soldiers, who were at least at the late stage of the Overlord Realm. Yet, they were killed by Xiang Yu with a single glance.
"Feather God! Stop that monster from coming out!"
"You all step back now. I'll take care of this place. No, I should say I'll take care of the underworld." After saying this, Xiang Yu conjured a forty-meter-long sword and cleaved the wreckage of the warship in two. There was even a ghost general inside, but he was killed by Xiang Yu's sword before he could even utter a word.
After confirming that there were no more enemies in Cangquan, Xiang Yu leaped towards the spatial rift, entered, and immediately sealed the rift with a cloud of eternal night.
puff!
Black blood splattered!
The enormous beast head fell down, and Xiang Yu didn't even see what the giant beast was before he charged towards a three-headed bird in the air.
At the same time, Xiang Yu unleashed another sword storm, wiping out most of the underworld army that was waiting to attack the human world from the crack. The remaining ghost generals were also on the verge of death and had lost their fighting ability.
Puff! Puff! Puff!
The three-headed bird instantly transformed into a headless bird and fell from the sky, proving utterly vulnerable.
In Xiang Yu's view, those ghost generals were only at the Integration Realm, while the two monsters were at the Great Ascension Realm. He had wiped out countless opponents of that strength in the Spirit Realm and the Demon Realm, and they were not even appetizers.
Suddenly, the sky darkened, and a ghostly figure covering half the sky opened its mouth wide, spitting out countless Mahayana-level skulls.
"A true immortal ghost king?" Xiang Yu raised his forty-meter-long sword forward, then charged straight at the huge ghostly figure in the air. The skulls could not stop him in the slightest, and could only keep tearing at Xiang Yu's domineering armor.
Swish...
Split in two!
"Who else? Come and fight!"
Chapter 543 Limits
"Who dares to be so arrogant! The Ten Kings of Hell have arrived!"
Ten towering black figures flashed in from afar, each ten thousand feet tall. The wind they stirred up could shatter mountains, and with a thought, the entire space was instantly imprisoned.
"All of them are at the Golden Immortal Realm, excellent! Come on, let's fight to the end!" Xiang Yu was not surprised but delighted. The domain unleashed by the Ten Kings of Hell was incredibly powerful, and it was a perfect opportunity to hone his skills.
The Overlord Divine Armor has finally made its appearance. Even when facing the Ghost King of the True Immortal Realm, Xiang Yu had no chance to use it. Now, facing ten Golden Immortal powerhouses at the same time, it is finally worthwhile to use his true strength.
"Destroy!" King Qin Guang flicked his sleeve, and a black wind swept in, as if it would blow away Xiang Yu's soul as well.
King Chujiang unleashed a palm strike, unleashing an icy storm that swept across the heavens and earth, like a colossal dragon devouring the sky and biting down at Xiang Yu. Everything around Xiang Yu was instantly frozen in ice. "Die!"
Emperor Song raised his hand and released a supreme treasure, which turned out to be a huge guillotine. With Emperor Song chanting incantations and pointing in the air, the guillotine instantly vanished and appeared above Xiang Yu's head, guillotting down in one fell swoop.
With a wave of his hand, the lower part of the entire domain turned into a pool of blood, and floating in the river were Xiang Yu's corpses, which were being continuously corroded. Blood spots were also gradually appearing on Xiang Yu's body in the iceberg.
Suddenly, a table materialized in front of Yama, the King of Hell, and with a bang of his gavel, the entire space trembled. "Xiang Yu has disrupted the order of Yin and Yang, an unforgivable crime. He shall be executed immediately!"
"Die, you madman!" King Biancheng, King Taishan, King Dushi, King Pingdeng, and King Zhuanlun also attacked, their various spells and supernatural powers instantly engulfing Xiang Yu.
Boom boom boom...
After the black wind passed, the guillotine was closed, and the iceberg was also cleaved in two!
Moments later, the smoke cleared, and the iceberg shattered into dust, revealing a horrifying scene.
Xiang Yu remained in the same position, standing in mid-air, while the Song Emperor's guillotine had a human-shaped notch!
"Ugh!" King Song groaned, suffering a significant backlash from the destruction of his natal magic weapon.
"Is that all? You've disappointed me greatly!" Xiang Yu swung his Overlord Divine Halberd and vanished instantly, rendering the domain confinement jointly cast by the Ten Kings of Hell ineffective!
Puff puff puff...
The charcoal-headed Yama King was instantly riddled with holes as Xiang Yu charged into his body and began to poke and stab him wildly. He fared much worse than Princess Iron Fan, only managing to hold on for a moment before his face contorted and he was sent flying backward, rolling around and begging for mercy. The other Yama Kings were of little help.
Xiang Yu suffered from the effects of a domain in his battle against the Mother of the Locusts. This feeling of being imprisoned is extremely unpleasant. The solution is not difficult: the person being imprisoned must also have a domain of equal strength.
To master a domain, one must grasp the power of laws, but Xiang Yu is only at the Core Formation stage, and it's definitely too late for normal development. Fortunately, Xiang Yu has a cheat code; Hao Jiu has already bought him a spatial law seed.
As long as you keep using spatial skills or spatial artifacts and frequently come into contact with spatial power, you can continuously level up and eventually possess the same powerful spatial law application ability as the Space Dao Ancestor.
With his access to alternate dimensions, the Sand Kingdom, and the ability to teleport across planes, it was only a matter of time before the seeds of spatial laws sprouted and grew.
However, Xiang Yu had not yet mastered the spatial domain, and his newly sprouted spatial laws were no match for the domain jointly set up by the Ten Kings of Hell.
Xiang Yu was able to remove the binding effect thanks to Hao Jiu's ability. Don't forget that he also has a skill called Purification, which can remove negative status effects.
Once they were freed, things would be much easier. The Ten Kings of Hell had made their bodies so large just to show off, but they couldn't withstand Xiang Yu's attacks. There were no restrictions inside the outer confinement, and none of them possessed powerful laws like the Law of Time; they all used very ordinary ghost laws.
After crippling one, the cooldown of the purification skill will be over. Then rush out to deal with the other one. It doesn't matter if you fail. With Xiang Yu's current defense and health, even if he is surrounded by the Ten Kings of Hell, he will not be in mortal danger. As long as he has a breath left, a mid-level healing potion can take care of him instantly.
Moreover, Xiang Yu was wearing the virtual equipment of the Thornmail, so before those melee attackers could seriously injure Xiang Yu, they were themselves coughing up blood and on the verge of death from the reflected damage.
After all, Xiang Yu's main development direction is to be a strength-type tank hero. His defense may not be that high, but with defensive abilities such as the Overbearing Aura, he is quite durable.
After King Qin Guang was possessed by Xiang Yu, he immediately used the Disintegration Technique, turning into a cloud of smoke, and then...
Sizzle sizzle...
A flash of lightning!
When King Qin Guang reassembled, his body was charred black and billowing smoke. The lightning was extremely effective against ghosts, and it was released when his body was broken into pieces, so it severely injured King Qin Guang.
In less than a quarter of an hour, five Yama Kings lost their fighting ability, and the binding domain jointly cast by the Ten Kings of Hell also collapsed.
Without the domain's confinement, Xiang Yu fought with even greater ease, able to teleport short distances even without being in another dimension, utilizing spatial power.
Penetrate, penetrate, and penetrate again and again. Xiang Yu made the most of his agility, leaving the Ten Kings of Hell utterly helpless.
The key point is that although Xiang Yu's body was smaller than the Ten Kings of Hell, he was in no way inferior in strength, and was even faster, making him virtually unbeatable.
The remaining five Kings of Hell also transformed their bodies to be the same size as Xiang Yu's. While this prevented their bodies from being hacked to pieces, it resulted in their heads being chopped off or their bodies being cut in half, which was still the same death.
Finally, Xiang Yu killed all ten Kings of Hell, but the supreme ruler of the underworld was not one of them.
Awoo~
A beastly roar.
"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva has personally arrived! Why are you all kneeling in reverence!"
The Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha, radiating golden light, rode the divine beast Di Ting and slowly flew over. "Benefactor, your sins are too heavy; let me perform the ritual to liberate you. Om Mani Padme Hum!"
The golden characters of the six-syllable mantra flew out of Ksitigarbha's mouth and then instantly grew larger. With each syllable uttered, the power increased, and the impact on Xiang Yu produced a deafening sound.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Xiang Yu gritted his teeth and charged forward with all his might. If he wasn't mistaken, this guy was very likely a powerful being above the Golden Immortal level, a Taiyi Jade Immortal or a Daluo Golden Immortal!
Teleportation!
Xiang Yu vanished and then reappeared behind Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva in the next instant, thrusting his Overlord Divine Halberd forward.
However.
As if it were a prophet, Di Ting, the mount of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, was waiting nearby. It opened its mouth and spewed out a beam of light, which directly engulfed Xiang Yu.
As his protective aura dissipated layer by layer, Xiang Yu's mind became clouded; he could neither hear nor see and had no senses whatsoever.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva smiled slightly, formed a lotus mudra, and chanted incantations. A precious pearl floated up and became brighter and brighter, emitting astonishing magical power fluctuations, as if it were brewing some kind of powerful move.
Just then, Xiang Yu felt a refreshing sensation, and his purification skill reappeared!
Xiang Yu swallowed a dragon ball, swung his Overlord Divine Halberd, aimed at Ksitigarbha, and brought it down with full force. He combined his domineering energy and Armament Haki with the Overlord Divine Halberd, unleashing a powerful attack!
"kill!"
Suddenly, a lotus platform appeared beneath Ksitigarbha's feet, instantly creating a light shield that blocked Xiang Yu's powerful attack.
