Ming Zhi Tian commanded the ten Blood Demons to unleash their full sword strikes!
He too, unleashed his ultimate move: "Jing Hong Yi Jian!"
Just as the decisive blow was about to land!
The demonized Immortal Emperor's eyes snapped open! The Heavenly God Puppet returned!
With a deafening roar, "Boom!"
The three, along with all their techniques, were directly repelled a hundred zhang away by the Purple Fire Absolute Shield!
All efforts were in vain!
The demonized Immortal Emperor let out a cold smile: "It's time to end, everything and..."
He then discarded the Purple Fire Absolute Shield, using it as immortal spiritual energy to sustain himself, gripped the Zi Wei Star Fire Sword with both hands, and with a ferocious swing!
"Kai! Tian! Zhan!"
A dark purple beam instantly struck forward! It tore through layers of planets, unstoppable!
Seeing this, Yuan Yi hastily commanded hundreds of mechanical puppets to intercept!
"Swish!"
Hundreds of Great Wheel King realm puppets were cleaved in two!
The dark purple beam continued its assault, and Qian Gu Yi Di quickly stepped in front to block!
"Ba Sheng!"
Qian Gu Yi Di clad himself in golden armor and, with his Qiong Hun Sword, parried the dark purple sword light!
"Bang!"
"Buzz buzz buzz... Roar..."
The world-destroying Kai Tian Yi Zhan bore down, Qian Gu Yi Di grew increasingly strained. His golden armor shattered, yet he still struggled to hold on...
Blood began to seep from the corner of his mouth, followed by a "Pfft!" as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Elder Qian!" Ming Zhi Tian looked at him with concern.
Qian Gu Yi Di summoned ten thousand divine artifacts from the void to aid him!
Ancient divine artifacts floated, then spun, attempting to dissipate the dark purple beam.
"Boom!..."
Tens of thousands of ancient divine artifacts were blown away. This was the Heavenly God Puppet's most powerful strike from the demonized Immortal Emperor. Qian Gu Yi Di used all his strength, even as the Qiong Hun Sword began to crack, he stood his ground alone!
"Blood Demons!" Ming Zhi Tian commanded the ten Blood Demons to assist!
But the effect was negligible; they were shattered by the residual force before they could even reach the front lines! This was truly a battle beyond their level.
Qian Gu Yi Di knew he had reached his limit. To prevent the ten thousand divine artifacts from wreaking havoc upon the mortal realm, he resealed them in the void. Then, his entire being was reduced to dust by the sword light!
"Elder Qian!!" Ming Zhi Tian roared.
The residual energy wave swept towards him, and Ming Zhi Tian was about to be intercepted!
The Holy God mechanical puppet blocked in front of him, exerting all its might and instantly unleashing an attack!
"Bang!"
The Holy God mechanical puppet lost an arm. Just as Ming Zhi Tian thought he was going to die, the dark purple sword light of Kai Tian Zhan was finally diffused into nothingness, thus being intercepted.
Yuan Yi and Ming Zhi Tian both breathed a sigh of relief. In truth, the greatest credit belonged to Qian Gu Yi Di; it was he who sacrificed his life to protect his master, Ming Zhi Tian.
The demonized Immortal Emperor, controlling the Heavenly God Puppet, slowly raised his hand: "Kai! Tian!..."
Just as Ming Zhi Tian and the other thought a second strike was coming, the demonized Immortal Emperor's immortal spiritual energy was depleted. The Heavenly God Puppet vanished from thin air, and his demonic eyes regained their clarity.
Having lost a companion once again, although Ming Zhi Tian had not known Qian Gu Yi Di for long, the bond of master and subordinate was etched in his heart. How many times had he helped him? How many times had he saved him?
Feeling his powerlessness once more, Ming Zhi Tian couldn't help but erupt: "Ahhh!..."
Yuan Yi looked on with concern: "Sect Master..."
The "Shen An Chang Sheng Jue" within his body began to circulate on its own, breaking through numerous bottlenecks, drawing out all the accumulated immortal spiritual energy from the Divine Spirit Sea! It nourished his entire body, breaking through all barriers...
Ming Zhi Tian's body radiated with surging immortal spiritual energy, and he advanced to the thirty-fifth heaven of the Divine Emperor realm! The Blood Demons broke through to the tenth heaven of the Great Perfection Great Wheel King realm!
Qian Gu Yi Di's residual soul whispered: "I never expected... to glimpse the divine realm before my death... This life is enough..."
With Qian Gu Yi Di dead, the demonized Immortal Emperor had no more reservations. He did not fear Ming Zhi Tian or the Holy God mechanical puppet with its severed arm at all.
