Chapter 1354: You Can Fight This Battle However You Want To

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

Shi Tianhao had been sitting cross-legged on the Higan Golden Bridge this whole time. He suddenly got to his feet, and the Twelve Divine Generals that were phasing between their spirit forms and the twelve golden figures above his head stopped as well.

A light projection gradually came out from Shi Tianhao’s Primal Taiji Diagram on the other side – it was a human silhouette that was at least a hundred feet tall.

This hundred-feet-tall human figure strode between the heavens. Countless stars, suns, and moons could be seen orbiting around his body, while the Primal Taiji Diagram transformed into flowing light and infused into this human figure’s body.

The human figure’s facial features were completely identical to Shi Tianhao’s original body. When his eyes opened, boundless radiance burst forth and multiple shadows of powerful demons knelt down before him and exalted and worshipped him.

The enormous City in the Sky was still oscillating between its spiritual form and its physical form, and quietly hovered above his head.

Shi Tianhao’s physical body opened his eyes at this moment, and his pupils sparkled continuously.

The Earth Dragon King, the Shen Dragon King, and Shi Zongmao froze momentarily as they watched on. The hundred-feet-tall human figure was Shi Tianhao’s virtual entity!

The difference was that Shi Tianhao’s current state was a little peculiar compared to other people.

Human cultivators typically infused their physical bodies into their immortal soul, so that they would have a smoother time creating the virtual entity and reaching the second-level immortal soul stage.

Cultivators of the Martial Way would first completely combine their immortal souls and their physical bodies. When their virtual entities were formed, they would also combine with their physical bodies and raise their strengths by another level.

Shi Tianhao’s physical body was completely separated from his virtual entity, yet they were intricately connected – this was unprecedented.

Shi Tianhao’s physical body wasn’t an empty shell. His physical body possessed its own consciousness and independent existence – he emanated with primal energy that embodied explosive power and flourishing life energy.

His virtual entity rippled with such might and strength that void space trembled along, and it was incredibly agile and nimble in both thought and movement.

“Did he convert his physical body into a puppet or an avatar, or did he convert it into something like a magic treasure?” Shi Zongmao watched on as he speculated in his mind, “This relationship resembles the connection between a demon’s true form and its undying immortal soul. Yet, it doesn’t seem like it at the same time...”

“What kind of existence is this?” He glanced at Zhu Yi’s and Shi Tianhao’s vastly dissimilar virtual entities, dumbfounded. He turned toward the mystical Yi Daoist Talisman above Zhu Yi’s head, and the scrolls that his virtual entity was holding onto as he felt the intertwining interaction between knowledge and uncertainty, the true meaning of the force that gives life to all living beings. He felt the great force of Dao that drew upon the chanting of scripture through the ages, and everything gave him a novel sensation. “Disciples of the Leader of the Celestial Sect of Wonders all have their unique aspects when they reach the second-level immortal soul stage – truly amazing and worthy of admiration.”

“Every single one of them will become legend. It’s not just that – it seems as if every path to success is different!”

“How will the Celestial Sect of Wonders end up if they continue developing like this?”

Not only Shi Zongmao was stunned with awe and admiration. The Earth Dragon King and the Shen Dragon King were both in the Vipralopa Stage, so their sensations were even more acute. The two demon dragons grew solemn as they could feel that even though Shi Tianhao had only just obtained his virtual entity, the strength of his mantras and mana could rival that of a Vipralopa Stage human cultivator.

The City in the Sky and the Celestial Sky Formation that unleashed the Twelve Divine Generals became even more powerful after Shi Tianhao reached the second-level immortal soul stage. Their auras became increasingly strong as they approached the peak of their transformations during their golden ages.

Ever since they obtained the City in the Sky and the Celestial Sky Formation, both Lin Feng and Shi Tianhao had infused countless materials and resources to repair them and restore them to their former glory.

However, restoring the City in the Sky and the Celestial Sky Formation wasn’t something that could be done overnight. Besides physical repairing and re-forging altogether, both of them were inextricably related to Shi Tianhao’s personal mastery and his understanding of heaven and earth, and of the great Dao due to the nature of his mantras.

Following Shi Tianhao’s rise in power to the next level, the City in the Sky and the Celestial Sky Formation were also boosted in strength.

The City in the Sky appeared dilapidated and as tattered as ever to the physical eye. However, it wasn’t as bad as before and much of it had been restored. The city’s boundaries and structure were restored, and its aura grew a lot denser than before.

The sprawling City in the Sky hovered above Shi Tianhao’s hundred-feet-tall virtual entity. The Twelve Divine Generals gradually transformed into twelve light spheres that lined up into a formation that stretched across the sky as they fixed themselves above his physical body.

Four powerful entities interacted and communicated with one another. They appeared entirely independent, but they actually achieved a perfect equilibrium that represented the harmonious separation of life and barrenness, the beginning of the Chaos, the changes of Destiny over the ages and everything all over again.

The Earth Dragon King and the Shen Dragon King could feel that the City in the Sky and the Celestial Sky Formation gave Shi Tianhao enough power to challenge a powerful Vipralopa Stage demon.

The radiance in Shi Tianhao’s virtual entity and his physical body receded, and they both glittered with clarity and perception. However, he stared at the Earth Dragon King and the Shen Dragon King with ice-cold eyes.

Zhu Yi smiled heartily and said, “Congratulations on obtaining your virtual entity, seventh junior brother. The Huangshen Body has no blemishes – you have succeeded!”

Shi Tianhao’s Yingyuan and Huangshen Body nodded at the same time. “Thank you, second senior brother, for protecting me during the process.”

He raised his eyes towards the Earth Dragon King and the Shen Dragon King and said coldly, “Come and fight, dragons!”

Shi Tianhao’s physical body was transformed into the Huangshen Body. He raised one palm, and several streaks of clear energy circulated in the center of his palm – they were multiple tiny fruits.

This fruit was named the Spiritual Lightning Fruit. It contained lightning-type spiritual energy, and they could be consumed. They originated from the Purple Clouds Sect’s Purple Clouds Peak, but they were mainly consumed by nascent soul stage cultivators to aid them in their cultivation. For Shi Tianhao, these fruits could only be used to grind his teeth and keep his mouth busy.

These Spiritual Lightning Fruits had been plucked for quite a while now, but they were still fresh, as if they had just been plucked from their trees. This was the effect of Shi Tianhao’s powers.

Shi Tianhao’s Huangshen Body’s eyes were fixed on the Earth Dragon King as he opened his mouth and swallowed those tiny fruits. He waved towards the Crucible of the Divine Lands inside the Two Elements of Creation Formation, and the Crucible of the Divine Lands flew out and landed on his hands.

Violent energy rippled all over his Huangshen Body. He raised the greenish-black crucible that resembled the entire Divine Lands before he smashed it right towards the Earth Dragon King!

The massive crucible increased in size as it barreled through the sky. It extended towards the ends of the earth, as if the entire Divine Lands was actually crashing down.

The Twelve Divine Generals revealed their spiritual forms and extended their palms out at the same time and raised the Crucible of the Divine Lands together with his Huangshen Body and slammed it towards the Earth Dragon King.

Shi Tianhao’s Yingyuan Body took a step through the sky and entered the Two Elements of Creation Formation along with the City in the Sky. The Two Elements of Creation Formation rotated in midair and unleashed large volumes of sparkling luster that permeated the skies and lunged towards the Earth Dragon King like a tsunami. Everything that the radiance touched crumbled into nothingness.

For a moment, the entire Void Battleground seemed to shudder vigorously with Shi Tianhao at the center. Uncountable streaks of spatial turbulence began to congregate towards this spot, but they were unable to continue when they neared the center. This caused the entire area to become something like a hurricane and the eye of a tornado, where violence and calmness came together.

The Earth Dragon King was as solemn as ever. However, the coldness in his eyes was still the same as before – except, there was a greater tinge of brutality and hostility.

He revealed his true form and the dragon scales all over his body began to flap. The golden clouds spread out across the sky, and he didn’t allow Shi Tianhao’s onslaught to come near as he slashed out with his claw and swung it through void space. He tunneled through boundless void space as he clashed violently with the Crucible of the Divine Lands in midair.

The Shen Dragon King wanted to help the Earth Dragon King, but Zhu Yi had already channeled the Higan Golden Bridge forward. Sprawling golden light separated the space and rendered the Earth Dragon King and the Shen Dragon King unable to communicate with each other.

Even though he wasn’t as violent or explosive as Shi Tianhao, there wasn’t a single tinge of warmth in Zhu Yi’s eyes as well. He blocked off the Shen Dragon King and prevented him from providing aid to the Earth Dragon King.

The Immemorial Celestial Dragons were indeed powerful. The Shen Dragon King had only recently reached the Vipralopa Stage, but his mantras and demonic powers couldn’t be disregarded or underestimated. His overall volume of demonic power resembled a vast and endless ocean that went on and on, and even the Earth Dragon King was inferior to him in this aspect.

Zhu Yi didn’t hold back in this battle, so he wouldn’t end up at a disadvantage, but he had to ensure that his adversary couldn’t communicate with the Earth Dragon King, so he had to be a little more careful. However, the Earth Dragon King was having a difficult time on the other side.

Shi Tianhao’s Yingyuan Body and Huangshen Body launched their attacks at the same time, with the Crucible of the Divine Lands, the Two Elements of Creation Formation, the City in the Sky, and the Celestial ky Formation. These formidable forces and hammered repeatedly onto the Earth Dragon King.

The Earth Dragon King had been in the Vipralopa Stage for a long time, and he was an incredibly powerful demon. Despite all that, he couldn’t even catch his breath as Shi Tianhao rained hell upon him. If not for the Immemorial Celestial Dragon’s mighty and reliable natural talents and abilities, he would have been defeated in the blink of an eye.

The Earth Dragon King’s Celestial Dragon form was powerful, but he phased in and out of his other forms. Sprawling golden light rolled around his body and seemed to contain every form possible. However, he was more focused on the Ming Dragon’s ability to shift space, the Candle Dragon’s innate ability to manipulate time, the White Jade Dragon’s understanding of the virtual world and reality to hold off Shi Tianhao’s furious onslaught.

Zhu Yi was locked in battle with the Shen Dragon King on the other side, and he muttered casually, “Junior brother, Master wounded him some years ago, so his demonic powers cannot erupt like they can in his peak condition. His dragon tail and one of his claws have been chopped off – these are all weaknesses.”

“His close-combat prowess is weakened with one less dragon claw. Without his dragon tail, he won’t be as agile when manipulating and shifting void space. Even though his demonic powers are still formidable, they’re incomparable to his peak condition when he still had that claw and his tail.”

“You can continue strengthening your attacks – especially your speed. You can adopt a quick-fire method to crush him, or you can grind it out with him. You can grind him down until he’s exhausted, and until the last ounces of his energy has been expended. The Crucible of the Divine Lands, the Two Elements of Creation Formation, the City in the Sky, the Celestial Sky Formation are four powerful entities, and there is no way he can grind you down first.”

Zhu Yi continued calmly, “You can fight this battle however you want to.”

He didn’t mask his voice from the two demon dragons and from Shi Zongmao. Shi Zongmao was a little speechless when he heard these words, while the Earth Dragon King’s eyes seemed to pour with raging flames, and the Shen Dragon King’s expression grew even more serious.

At this moment, the Immortal Dragon City was supposed to be everyone’s point of focus, but it was temporarily disregarded.

Following the passage of time, the radiance on the Immortal Dragon City became brighter and its consciousness grew clearer and clearer. The colossal city wall suddenly started moving through void space.
