Come On, Son! You Got to Breakthrough Now!-Chapter 413 - 285: Mysterious God Statue_2
Just when the Fiery Flame Divine Phoenix was about to touch the temple, an eerie glow emerged from within the black temple, seemingly trying to block the attack.
But the eerie glow only lasted for a moment before shattering into nothingness.
Without the protection of the eerie glow,
the black temple instantly shattered.
"Boom——"
At the moment the black temple shattered, a Guanyin Divine Statue appeared in Gu Qingfeng’s line of sight.
The statue stood over ten feet high, made of clay. The left hand held a jade bottle while the right hand was in a flower-pinching gesture. Its eyes were closed, and what should have been a sorrowful face now gave an eerie and grotesque illusion.
"You are the Evil Spirit here!"
Gu Qingfeng’s expression turned cold. The eerie statue appeared to be inanimate, yet he felt as though it were alive.
Adding to that the overwhelmingly cold aura emanating from it, there was no room for doubt.
At that moment,
the eerie statue suddenly opened its eyes, revealing a blood-red color. Two streams of blood tears flowed down its cheeks, and a wave of even more terrifying chaotic Divine Thought came crashing down.
This chaotic Divine Thought was so tumultuous that even a Saint could be at risk of falling into darkness.
However,
Gu Qingfeng’s Divine Thought was firm and stable, his vigor like the scorching sun. The moment the chaotic Divine Thought touched him, it was instantly dissolved by this fiery power.
"Die!"
Gu Qingfeng’s gaze was fierce, his right hand clenched in the void, and the Evil Slayer Blade in his Dantian trembled, appearing in his hand in an instant.
The Imperial Weapon had appeared.
Divine power roared.
At the moment Gu Qingfeng gripped the blade handle, an unparalleled blade wind slashed out, shattering all the space around, splitting the heavens and the earth in two.
The eerie statue moved abruptly, its right hand, which had been in a flower-pinching gesture, pulled out a willow twig from the jade bottle, unleashing a blood-colored ribbon with an overwhelmingly foul stench.
The so-called blood-colored ribbon was shockingly formed by the blood of countless living beings.
Moreover,
Gu Qingfeng could hear the wailing of countless souls in the blood river, a blood-colored Heavenly River burying countless souls.
However fearsome this blood-colored Heavenly River was, in the face of the Imperial Weapon’s blade edge, it seemed powerless.
When the blade wind slashed, the blood-colored Heavenly River was not only split in two, but all the blood river touched by the blade wind hissed like hot oil into fire, igniting and burning entirely.
"Boom——"
With one stroke,
the blood river shattered.
The relentless blade wind, engulfed in boundless flames, moved to cleave the eerie statue completely, but the latter moved again.
The left hand holding the jade bottle rose, and an immense torrent of blood surged out, flowing like a flood breaking through a dam.
Ultimately,
the power of the blood river swallowed the blade wind completely.
Seeing this,
Gu Qingfeng’s expression remained unchanged. He stepped forward, unleashing the full power of his Saint Realm Nine Layers into the Evil Slayer Blade, bringing forth the power of the Imperial Weapon.
"I don’t care what kind of sinister Evil Spirit you are, today I will cut you down under my blade!"
As he spoke,
the Imperial Weapon was swung out.
The terrifying blade wind slashed forth, its immense power like a Great Sun shining across the heavens and earth, evaporating all the blood river in its path.
Before the eerie statue could make another move, the blade had already slashed it in two.
At this moment,
Gu Qingfeng could see clearly that inside the clay statue, blood and flesh were already manifesting, revealing the Five Internal Organs and emitting a foul and repulsive odor.
Faced with this situation, Gu Qingfeng frowned slightly but was not too surprised.
Given the initial signs, it was clear that this was no ordinary statue. Although the emergence of flesh and blood was somewhat extraordinary, it was not entirely unexpected.
Now,
the statue was shattered,
and the blood and flesh within continued to wriggle slowly.
Upon seeing this.
Gu Qingfeng performed the incantation, and suddenly purple lightning struck down from the sky.
"Boom!!!"
The pure, masculine lightning struck the eerie statue’s flesh, emitting a sizzling sound. A more pungent stench began to spread as a shrill scream pierced the air, and the statue, along with its flesh, gradually dissolved.
In no time, the eerie statue had completely turned to ashes.
At the moment the eerie statue vanished, the thick chilling aura in the area dissipated significantly.
After all, the eerie statue was the source of this power; its obliteration naturally weakened the chilling aura here.
However.
Gu Qingfeng understood as well.
If the residual power here was not dealt with, it might give birth to another Evil Spirit in years to come.
After all—
The power of the eerie statue was too terrifying. Even though it had perished, its residual power still covered the surroundings, and the chances of mutation over the years were extraordinarily high.
Understanding the hidden dangers, Gu Qingfeng did not give the place any chance to birth another Evil Spirit.
His blood energy surged, and his hands formed seals, summoning Nine Heavens Divine Thunder.
"Rumble!!"
What was once a clear sky suddenly filled with dark clouds, and terrifying purple lightning rained down as if to engulf the entire Ancient Beast Mountain Range.
In the eyes of other cultivators, they suddenly saw an ocean of purple lightning stretching before them, with all other colors in the world vanished, leaving only purple.
Heavenly thunder purified the world’s filth!
Any cultivator sensing this aura couldn’t stop their hearts from trembling, and their faces showed uncontrollable fear as they gazed at the purple ocean of lightning.
"Is this the power of the strongest in the End of Dharma Era!!!?"
"Terrifying!!!"
"It turns out that with great cultivation, claims of world-ending powers are not just empty words—!"
Whether they were Semi-Saints or other Tiaoist Palace Realm cultivators, all felt their insignificance under such terrible power.
Meanwhile.
In other parts of the Ancient Beast Mountain Range that were not affected by the lightning, many fierce beasts fled in terror, afraid of being touched by the thunder and losing their lives on the spot.
The purple lightning persisted for a full quarter of an hour before gradually dissipating.
When the lightning finally cleared, silence returned to the area.
If the previous black mist had turned the land charred and withered the trees, albeit leaving their trunks, now after the baptism of the lightning ocean, everything had completely vanished without a trace.
The entire expanse looked as if it had been plowed, with no trees, hills, or any traces remaining.
Everything.
Was leveled to the ground.
Truly leveled to the ground, not an exaggerated form of speech.
The areas covered by the lightning ocean were thoroughly destroyed over a range of tens of thousands of miles.
If this power had erupted in an inhabited area, it would have instantly turned billions of cultivators to dust, leaving not even a skeleton.
It was fortunate that life here had already been annihilated earlier by the black mist.
Otherwise.
This strike would have killed countless beings.
As everyone was shocked by the scene before them, Gu Qingfeng ceased his actions, his once mighty blood energy now slightly depleted.
After all, the Great Saint’s Divine Power was extraordinary, and maintaining the Divine Sky Heavenly Thunder would have been impossible for anyone but Gu Qingfeng; even a Tiaoist Palace Realm powerhouse wouldn’t have managed.
Now.
With the cleansing of thunder.
All the eerie, chilling auras had been thoroughly eradicated.
This result.
Was exactly what Gu Qingfeng intended to see.
Then.
His gaze landed on the spot where the eerie statue had perished, and he saw the earth and dust rise, revealing a corner of a stele coming into view.
