YM778.TV Chapter 2007 - One Wielding a Sword, Two Carrying a Coffin (2)
Countless lightning bolts shot toward the sun emperor in wave after wave, from balls of chaos lightning and the Ninefold Chaos Thunderscape, to Myriad Thundernet, Soulchasing Hellthunder and the more powerful Cosmic Lance and Triworld Afterlife Halls. The abilities were varied and had multiple different functions, from pure attack to control and binding. The bolts from the Triworld Afterlife Halls also targeted the soul, which made them very effective against totems! The faith of fifty billion people fueled the cat, boosting its lightning bolts so much that they easily overwhelmed the flames.
The three-legged golden crows seemed ready to fiercely retaliate, yet countless white vines wrapped around their bodies. When they looked up, they saw a dryad hiding amidst the flames with countless vines stretching out from its arms. Xian Xian\'s abilities had become much more powerful after its evolution. The totems that were bound by the vines felt their energy being drained away and found it hard to struggle. The white, glowing vines felt like an executioner\'s noose around their necks. They even wrapped themselves around the sun emperor and his coffin to limit their movement.
Xian Xian and Yin Chen had grown leaps and bounds after becoming sovereign beasts. Even though it was a plant and was supposed to be weak against fire, it was still able to hold its ground in this battle. No doubt, Xian Xian would fare even better against lifebound beasts with flesh and blood, for that was its favorite snack.
All of that happened within a few short instants. Right after Yin Chen paved the way, Xian Xian had used its vines and rained down bloody swords and Demise Greenloti to hold back the coffin and totems. Ying Huo, Meow Meow, and Lan Huang swiftly charged in. Another wave of lightning and fire clashed, creating even more explosions. All the while, Ying Huo and Lan Huang engaged in close combat with the totems, which in turn completely collapsed from the confrontation, the crows perishing one after another!
Even though I\'m borrowing the power of the people and relying on the Grand-Orient Sword, the sun emperor is also relying on the Flameyellow Coffin himself. While the power of faith could make Tianming’s lifebound beasts stronger, the coffin couldn\'t enhance the power of the sun emperor\'s totems. That was why they collapsed under the assault. Tianming made more and more progress, which was marked by the pained cries of perishing golden crows. Before the sun emperor could ram into Tianming with his coffin, Ying Huo\'s Skyscroch Featherblast left many bloody holes in his body. Using the sheer might of the coffin, he burst through Meow Meow\'s lightning bolts and the prime wonder and made his way toward Tianming!
"Meow Meow, move aside!" Tianming said. The two of them were the targets of the coffin\'s attack.
Meow Meow was still unleashing large abilities from the back and wasn’t expecting the sun emperor to show up before it so suddenly. It widened its eyes as it reverted from its Regal Chaosfiend form, turning into a small cat that blasted away like a swift lightning bolt to reach Tianming\'s back.
The sun emperor now directly faced Tianming, intent on ending the battle by killing the leader. His expression was completely contorted from experiencing Tianming\'s sudden boost in power. Endless rage filled his visage, causing his brows to stand almost vertical. The Flameyellow Coffin sped up and scattered Ying Huo and the rest, shooting toward Tianming like a sword thrust. It was the very same move that had ended Grand Emperor Starvore! The coffin\'s charge seemed completely unstoppable.
"I didn\'t think your lifebound beasts would be so hard to deal with, but once you\'re dead, they\'ll be nothing but an annoying rabble to clean up!" Perhaps he thought that was the weakness of beastmasters.
The might of the coffin did indeed shake Tianming. This was the most terrifying thing about fighting the sun emperor head-on—while the form of the two people carrying a coffin to a fight seemed a little silly, its power was undisputed. But now that he had the Grand-Orient Sword in hand, however, as well as the powerful protection of his lifebound beasts, Tianming was able to achieve a state of calm like never before. The power from the Flint Infernal Impulse was the thing that reliably stabilized him, while the power from the fifty billion people fueled his courage to stand up against the sun emperor.
"Let\'s see which is stronger, the Grand-Orient Sword or the Flameyellow Coffin! Come!" Would the black and gold imperial stars be able to triumph over the Flameyellow Imperial Star? Tianming suddenly fell as he slashed down at the flaming meteor with both hands.
The power of the cosmic impulse was finally unleashed, coloring the Grand-Orient Sword a dark red and scattering the flames around it! A wide open area devoid of flames appeared around Tianming. He used the Eightdragon Tribulation, unleashing all of the moves in a single instant. While he didn\'t have his totems, the Grand-Orient Sword was able to bring out a devastating power from the move within a small area! Eight dragons came bursting out, a blend of a silver flash, flaming roar, bloody sacrifice, transcendance, annihilation, apotheosis, and many more, forming a complete whole.
The flaming beasts ceased their attack, possibly because the technique had originated from the Flameyellow Imperial Star, which freed up Tianming\'s Imperealm Sword Formation for use on the sun emperor! The two people carrying the coffin had turned into a ball of flame. It was hard to tell which was which between the sun emperor, Li Wudi, and the coffin.
Tianming couldn\'t care less at that point, though, for if he didn’t strike, he would experience a swift death. He chose to trust the Grand-Orient Sword. The eight-move fusion strike had been unleashed within the Flameyellow Guard Formation. Tianming was quite bewildered by his surroundings and the trepidation felt by the denizens of the sun. It felt like the sun had infused itself into the blood within his veins. He suddenly felt a strong yearning for what the flameyellow divinities stood for. By now, there was another force infused into his strike apart from the cosmic impulse, a newfound impetus.
The sword collided with the coffin, sending an ear-piercing clang across the entire world. The Flameyellow Guard Formation itself heavily shuddered and continuously rumbled. All of the denizens of the sun were paying attention to this battle and almost forgot to breathe. The aftershock from the battle alone persisted without end.
The violent clash between the cosmic impulse and the might of the Flameyellow Coffin triggered countless explosions in all directions, sending Tianming flying. His left arm was fine, but he lost quite a lot of albi in his right one! However, it would quickly heal thanks to the Greenspark Tower. He took a deep breath and grit his teeth before wearing an expression of joy. "I... I\'m alive!"
That was the crucial point. Grand Emperor Starvore had been killed by the coffin\'s attack, but Tianming hadn’t suffered much at all. His strike had even sent the coffin spinning out of control. When it finally came to a stop, he could see that the sun emperor in front was covered in wounds left by the flint infernal sword ki. Li Wudi was no better off. Most shocking was that the coffin\'s lid now had a huge gash left by the Grand-Orient Sword!"
"My coffin!" A never-before-seen gaze of shock surfaced on the sun emperor\'s face when he turned back and looked at it. It was as if his faith had shattered. He wasn\'t able to laugh like he had before, nor was he able to muster a fearsome look. Instead, his expression was one of pure awkwardness, with him stretching the corner of his mouth in disbelief. It was hard to imagine how wildly his emotions were fluctuating. Not even being invaded by the Primordial Demon back then and almost losing his life had make him feel this distraught. A bad omen slowly seeped into his heart like a sharp needle. Looking up, he saw that Tianming had seemingly also fused with the sun.
"Don\'t tell me...." Tianming seemed to have gained the impetus of the sun as well, making him look even more like its ruler. The sun emperor\'s own impetus, which he had gained from exterminating Skywolf Blaze, had also begun receding. While the amount of impetus differed, it was still a nightmare that the sun emperor simply couldn\'t accept.
"Even though I exterminated both Skywolf stars and multiplied our nova source fivefold, you\'re starting to doubt me over a single scratch?" His low growl contained a hint of the eruption he felt within as he addressed the sun beneath him. He had always thought that he’d conquered the world itself, but now he smelled betrayal in the air.
