Chapter 669 You seem weaker than I imagined
"Your power, after its ultimate sublimation, seems weaker than I imagined! Is this all the power a Second Emperor has?"
Lin Hanzhou laughed loudly, his voice like rolling thunder, shattering a large area of the void in front of him.
He took a step forward, and golden lotuses burning with flames bloomed beneath his feet. He carried endless thunder and holy fire as he once again took the initiative to attack the Great Emperor of Ten Thousand Souls!
On the other side of the battlefield, the Great Emperor of Ten Thousand Souls had an extremely ugly expression, so gloomy it seemed as if water could drip from it.
Although he had reached the pinnacle of his power and forcibly restored himself to the peak state of the Second Emperor, exuding deathly aura and imperial might, he felt no joy at returning to his peak. Instead, an indescribable sense of horror and chilling coldness welled up within him.
"How is this possible?!"
The Great Emperor of Ten Thousand Souls roared madly in his heart.
In those clashes just now, in order to end the battle quickly, he used his most powerful and proud killing move every time.
He wielded the Soul-Devouring Tower of Ten Thousand Ghosts, releasing the Netherworld Qi and countless Soul-Devouring Ghosts powerful enough to corrode the very essence of an emperor, attempting to corrupt and severely damage Lin Hanzhou's imperial body in one fell swoop.
But the result?
Not only was the opponent completely unharmed, but he fought with increasing vigor, his energy and blood flowing like a deep abyss, showing no signs of exhaustion!
The Yellow Spring Ghost Qi, which would instantly turn into pus if even a Quasi-Emperor touched it, would be instantly burned into nothingness by the domineering and unparalleled Heaven-Burning Sacred Fire when it approached within a hundred feet of Lin Hanzhou.
Those monstrous, soul-devouring ghosts were reduced to ashes before they could even scream, as the heavenly tribulation lightning emanating from the Thunder Tribulation Sword struck them like ice and snow meeting the scorching sun!
"This kid's strength is simply too terrifying!"
"Although my current, greatly enhanced strength is still somewhat inferior to my peak strength, it is still about 80% of what it was at my peak."
"How could my opponent possibly withstand 80% of my peak strength?"
"He's only just attained enlightenment, how could he possibly possess such unfathomable and profound inner strength?!"
The Great Emperor of Ten Thousand Souls gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with resentment and disbelief.
A newly crowned emperor should be in a tender stage, still not proficient in mastering the laws of the Great Dao and whose imperial body has not yet fully transformed to its ultimate form.
But Lin Hanzhou before him was like an invincible old monster who had been immersed in the realm of imperial power for countless eras. His moves were so shrewd and his laws so harmonious that even this second-generation emperor felt a chill in his heart.
What made the Emperor of Ten Thousand Souls feel even more desperate and absurd was the sword in the opponent's hand!
The Great Emperor of Ten Thousand Souls looked down at his natal supreme imperial weapon, the Ten Thousand Ghosts Soul Devouring Tower, which was floating in front of him.
This supreme demonic weapon, forged with countless efforts and infused with massive amounts of supreme immortal gold and the resentment of billions of living beings, now has several clear cracks appearing on its tower!
Within those cracks, lingering purple lightning and golden holy fire remained, relentlessly eroding the deities and laws within the tower.
"Damn it! My Imperial Weapon!"
The Emperor of Ten Thousand Souls was heartbroken, almost to the point of bleeding.
Although he immediately mobilized his own imperial origin to forcibly repair the cracks, as the owner of this weapon, he knew very well that this method was only a temporary solution.
The Thunderfire Sword Qi had already damaged the essence of the Myriad Ghosts Soul Devouring Tower. If it were to be struck a few more times by such a terrifying sword edge, this supreme imperial weapon that he was so proud of would probably disintegrate and shatter on the spot!
However, seeing Lin Hanzhou charging forward again with the force of an ancient thunder and fire god descending to earth, the Great Emperor of Ten Thousand Souls had no way out.
The time for ultimate sublimation is limited; every moment he delays, he gets one step closer to the abyss of death.
"Don't push your luck! Do you really think I can't kill you?! May ten thousand ghosts weep, and may heaven and earth be destroyed!"
The Great Emperor of Ten Thousand Souls let out a hysterical, raging roar, his black hair flying wildly, and even the corners of his eyes cracked with golden-black blood due to the excessive exertion of power.
Left with no other choice, he gritted his teeth and poured the burning essence of the Second Emperor within his body into the Soul Devouring Tower of Ten Thousand Ghosts without reservation.
Rumble!
The Soul Devouring Tower of Ten Thousand Ghosts, infused with the source, instantly expanded, transforming into a towering, star-sized behemoth that reached into the clouds.
Endless black death energy, like giant black galaxies, surrounded the tower, and the cries of billions of ghosts converged to form a terrifying sonic storm capable of tearing apart the soul.
The Great Emperor of Ten Thousand Souls held up the sky-covering black demonic tower with both hands, and with a crazy determination to perish together, he slammed it into Lin Hanzhou who was charging towards him!
"Well done! Watch as I shatter your turtle shell with a single sword strike!"
Faced with the terrifying demonic tower that seemed to collapse as if the entire universe were falling down, Lin Hanzhou let out a long roar and advanced instead of retreating.
He gripped the hilt of the Thunder Tribulation Sword with both hands and raised it high.
At this moment, the Heavenly Heart Imprint within his body erupted with an extremely brilliant light. The laws of the entire universe seemed to resonate with his sword-wielding action, and a massive amount of cosmic primordial power crossed endless time and space, frantically converging onto the sword.
"Thunderfire Sword Technique - Thunderfire Annihilation Slash!"
Lin Hanzhou shouted sharply and brought his sword down heavily!
This sword strike contained no fancy techniques, only pure, extreme power and overwhelming force.
Endless deep purple heavenly punishment lightning, mixed with crimson-gold heaven-burning holy fire capable of incinerating the nine heavens and ten earths, transformed into a world-shaking sword river stretching for tens of millions of miles, seemingly about to split the entire universe in two!
Wherever the Sword River flows, all space, time, and light along its path are annihilated into the most primordial chaos.
"clang--!!!!"
A terrifying metallic clang, powerful enough to make a quasi-emperor's ears bleed and their soul tremble, exploded in this shattered star field!
The Thunderfire Sword River struck the massive, star-sized Soul Devouring Tower of Ten Thousand Ghosts with tremendous force!
This collision was far more devastating than any of the previous ones.
The destruction of thunder and the purification of holy fire perfectly countered the evil and deathly aura of the Soul Devouring Tower.
"Click...click click..."
The teeth-grinding cracking sounds rang out in rapid succession after a brief stalemate.
The Great Emperor of Ten Thousand Souls was horrified to see that the Soul Devouring Tower of Ten Thousand Ghosts, on which he had placed such high hopes, could not even withstand a single breath this time!
Under the devastating power of the Thunderfire Sword Qi, the cracks that he had forcibly repaired earlier not only burst open instantly, but new cracks spread at a terrifying speed visible to the naked eye, like a startled spider web, and in the blink of an eye, they covered the entire huge black tower that was as big as a star!
The wails emanating from the tower were no longer those of fierce ghosts, but rather the desperate lamentations of countless vengeful spirits being burned in the thunder and fire.
The weapon deity inside the tower let out a shrill scream before being severely injured by a domineering purple lightning bolt!
"Bang!"
The defenses of the Soul-Devouring Tower of Ten Thousand Ghosts have completely collapsed.
