Chapter 951: Chapter 671: Revel in the Spear, Perfection in One Point—All Is Void!
"Hahaha, take another shot from me!" The ultimate point struck, piercing through the layers of armor of the Great Protector, nailing him to the tower.
This shot did not lessen in momentum; after piercing the tower, it also pierced this dimension, disappearing without a trace.
"I see, void-breaking is used this way. Focus to a point where space-time becomes meaningless, and everything becomes void, breaking at will."
Lu Chenzhou had an epiphany, marveling at the power of this Dao.
This is the absolute path of slaughter through penetration; once mastered, no armor can remain unbroken.
This is only the Seventh Rank; if one can cultivate to the Eighth Rank, with his strength, he would likely pierce even demigod defenses.
With this, he finally created his first Second Step technique, progressing further with the "Martial God Spear."
Now, he can truly be considered a Second Step strong practitioner.
Although the wound caused by the extreme point is also very small, it is a real defense break.
As long as the defense is broken, there is hope.
Then, he could use severe poison, the Blood Moon, and other sustained Dao damages to cause secondary harm.
The reason why demigods perform dimensional attacks on the Third Step is partly due to demigod domain defense.
A Ninth Rank Dao forming a shield is like a high-dimensional being above a painting; no matter how strong you are, you can’t break the defense.
But with void-breaking, one can ignore these and kill from inside the painting to outside!
The battle of the top-level powerhouses made the ancient tower, which imprisoned major criminals, unable to endure anymore, collapsing with a boom.
Beneath the tower, a pitch-black, deep vortex was revealed, seeming to lead to an unknown dimension.
The Great Protector slid down from the tower, his figure gradually disintegrating, saying: "Today, I’ve been enlightened, outmatched, and I admit defeat. That shot of yours, I saw a trace of an old friend’s style. Though I don’t know its name, its creator must be my brother, the Nine Extremes Spear Sage."
"May I ask your name?" Lu Chenzhou inquired.
The Great Protector is so powerful, he must have been an illustrious name in ancient times, second only to those of great power.
"Hahaha, I’m just a relic of the old era, barely surviving in the Divine Prison Realm, not worth mentioning. Though I am strong, I am still no match for the Hall Master. You came too early; if you had come later, even the Hall Master wouldn’t be your opponent, but now..." The Great Protector’s tone was regretful.
"I still repeat, the Mystic Sky Alliance welcomes you at any time; the Divine Prison Realm is not your stage." Lu Chenzhou invited again.
"Hahaha, I also want to leave, but I can’t." The Great Protector’s figure gradually dissipated, "Anyway, this battle was exhilarating!"
Indeed, the Great Protector is strong; without a Divine Artifact, relying only on divine skills and Dao, he could hold a draw with Lu Chenzhou, who possessed great power’s will.
Whether it was the two kinds of Eighth Rank Dao or the Dual-Mind technique, they were ingenious ideas of a genius.
Moreover, Lu Chenzhou could sense that the Great Protector had a straightforward personality.
He probably offended a great figure in the Divine Court, just like the Black Armored Practitioner who created the "Extreme Point," and was suppressed here.
With the Great Protector’s defeat, the experts of the Mo Luo Hall were defeated by Lu Chenzhou.
Only the most mysterious Hall Master remained, clearly hiding behind the vortex, a dangerous atmosphere permeating.
Achilles said, "This should be the entrance to the Ninth Layer of the Divine Prison Realm, rumored to be the place of cultivation for the Hall Master, where once great power and demigods were imprisoned. Master, it’s obvious that this is a trap set by the Mo Luo Hall Master; once entered, it’s nine deaths and one life."
The Great Protector comprehended the two kinds of Eighth Rank Dao of the Third Step.
Mo Luo Master is probably truly a demigod.
Lu Chenzhou also hesitated slightly.
Kunxu probably didn’t enter the Ninth Layer, leaving from the Eighth Layer.
But he still couldn’t see the shadow of the Eternal Immortal, and the Causality Eye was also blocked.
To find the Eternal Immortal, he must defeat the Mo Luo Master.
No one is fearless of death; he is also afraid.
Moreover, behind him lies an entire civilization.
He recalled the words left by the Eternal Immortal for the Yaochi Immortal, internally torn.
A moment later, he resolutely stepped inside.
He believed in the Undying Body and his own willpower.
Not to mention, he also had a Dao Puppet.
If the real body indeed perishes, then let the clone take the place.
After all, the Martial Arts Tree is shared, and the clone’s strength is not much weaker than his own.
...
The Ninth Layer is not large.
Here lies only a vast white space, no heavens, earth, or stars visible, like chaos before the world was opened.
At the end of the space, an old man sat cross-legged like a Buddha beneath a peculiar crooked tree.
Lu Chenzhou looked around but did not see the shadow of the Eternal Immortal.
"It seems the Eternal Immortal is on the Eighth Layer." Lu Chenzhou spoke with a relieved tone, as if exhaling a breath.
The old man looked up and laughed, "Indeed, the Ninth Layer holds only myself, the God."
"God?" Lu Chenzhou questioned with skepticism.
"Kneel." The old man’s voice was commanding, with endless rules transforming into a Six-finger Mountain descending from the sky.
In haste, Lu Chenzhou felt as if struck by an entire star, bending low and half-kneeling, his fists pressed into the ground.
Chains extended from the Six-finger Mountain, imprisoning Lu Chenzhou in this space.
"Do not question the power of a god, words and laws follow, divine decree, this is a god!" The elder stood up, a terrifying aura of supremacy over heaven and earth swept across the entire space. "I know you have mastered many Seventh Rank Dao, and I understand you possess an Undying Body and Great Power Will. The trump cards you pride yourself on mean nothing here... If you cooperate with me, you might leave here alive, and I will grant you the Eternal Life Technique, allowing you to become the new Great Protector, commanding the elite of Mo Luo Hall to leave the Divine Prison Realm, becoming the new ruler of the Three Thousand Realms."
"Cooperate with you on what?"
"Transfer your opportunity of breaking through the Eighth in a century to me!"
"Aren’t you afraid of overexerting yourself? This opportunity of mine is quite substantial."
"Hahaha, how arrogant." The elder gently pressed his finger, and the Six-finger Mountain pressed down abruptly, causing Lu Chenzhou to kneel, his body shattering. "Don’t force me to take action. I advise you to hand it over voluntarily. Otherwise, I will use divine means to forcibly perform the Soul Search Technique on you, and I will still obtain the opportunity."
"You can certainly try and see if you can get it," Lu Chenzhou gritted his teeth and struggled to stand.
The Seventh Rank Power Extreme Dao felt powerless for the first time. Even with the Mountain Moving Scripture operating at its limit, it could only slightly shake the mountain.
"Truly stubborn." The elder walked step by step, stopping three meters in front of Lu Chenzhou, reached out his hand, and pressed it towards Lu Chenzhou’s forehead.
With a rumbling sound, countless True Spirit Giant Beasts charged, and Great Power Will rushed forth, aiming to crush the elder before him.
"I told you it’s useless." The elder frowned, and another dark, sinister will filled with malice emerged like a tide.
The two Great Power Wills clashed, but the elder’s was clearly superior, smashing the True Spirit Giant Beasts.
Lu Chenzhou’s face turned pale, blood and sweat streaming from his forehead, only to be destroyed and resurrected again in an instant.
"It seems this old fellow was indeed a Demigod level existence. His will is too refined, too thick."
But Lu Chenzhou also observed that when the elder acted, chains emerged from the white space around him and pierced his body.
This indicated that he was still trapped by the Divine Prison Realm, likely unable to leave and unable to fully exercise his power.
"How about it, are you ready to obediently hand over the opportunity to this god now?" the elder smiled.
"Dream your Great Dream!" Lu Chenzhou shouted, tensing and relaxing his muscles, shaking the Six-finger Mountain.
"Devouring Heaven and Earth!"
He took a long breath, and the countless lower-grade Primordial Stones accumulated in his internal world were all sucked into it.
A vast ocean of Primordial Qi surged, crashing against the shore.
This space contained no Primordial Qi.
Fortunately, Lu Chenzhou had long been prepared.
In an instant, his Second Step aura reached the Third Step, with vast Qi-Blood exceeding sixty million dings.
"I’ve known this move too, it’s useless." The elder was well aware of Lu Chenzhou’s trump cards. "Since you’re stubbornly ignorant, let me show you the means of the divine." He extended his hand, revealing six fingers, wrapped in a tangible Destruction Principle, and grabbed out.
"Great Divine Power·Nine Heavens Destruction Hand!"
Layers of dimensions and space shattered.
Lu Chenzhou roared, tearing the Six-finger Mountain with his fists, causing a ghostly green sun to solidify and explode.
The large hand pressed down, extinguishing the sun, dispersing the poison mist, and falling on Lu Chenzhou.
Buzz! The Xuanji Nine-Star Shield automatically protected him, with nine stars revolving, shaking the large hand away.
"Oh, you actually have this Spiritual Weapon, no wonder you dared to be so arrogant... but how long can a Spiritual Weapon last?" the elder sneered.
He continuously used Great Divine Power, enveloping the strands of destructive Dao power and bombarding down.
But this quasi-supreme treasure, known as the strongest defensive weapon, obviously had its reputation not built on empty words.
It withstood more than ten strikes from the elder before the nine stars shattered, protecting Lu Chenzhou from being crushed by the large hand.
Lu Chenzhou’s staff continuously shot out blossoms of Divine Lotus, exploding around the elder.
The elder danced among them with chains, with speed, technique, and power far surpassing Lu Chenzhou.
"It’s meaningless to fight against the divine, don’t..." The elder’s words were cut short as a golden pearl quietly appeared behind him.
Accompanied by the cry of the Golden Crow Divine Bird, nine suns hung in the air, exploding one after another, the terrifying impact flinging him violently, burning even the Dao.
"Well done, boy, quite a few treasures, and the Golden Crow Treasure Pearl is in your hands too!" the elder exclaimed, flying out in slight disarray. "Unfortunately, it’s not even a supreme treasure, can’t hurt me."
"Take this hammer!" Lu Chenzhou swung a heavy hammer, smashing behind the elder.
The elder turned and punched, Destruction Principle like a river, sending Lu Chenzhou flying, hammer and all, only to be resurrected once more.
"Since you’re so obstinate, you might as well die." The elder spread his six fingers, rubbed out a pea-sized magic ball, and it radiated the ultimate Destruction Principle.
Behind him, a Dao shadow emerged, and he stood high above the Dao, launching the magic ball.
"Dao Attack!" Lu Chenzhou’s heart tightened, transforming into a Golden Winged Great Peng, a streak of golden light fleeing far away.
"The Dao is everywhere, how can you escape?" the elder laughed.
Sure enough, no matter how fast Lu Chenzhou sped, the magic ball still descended, landing on him.
The Xuanji Nine-Star Shield was blasted open with a large hole, half of Lu Chenzhou’s body was annihilated, and soon it spread over his whole body.
"Alas, what a pity." The elder sighed, reaching out to capture Lu Chenzhou’s soul, preparing to retrieve it.
With a grasp, all he caught was a shattered puppet, and his expression changed slightly: "Dao Puppet?"
Meanwhile, behind him, a long staff appeared, and Lu Chenzhou concentrated all his Essence, Spirit, and Intention into this one spear.
With one thrust, the elder’s surrounding principles shattered, and his great head was pierced through.
