道罗邪皇子 (邪神之道 B5)

926

[***-]

Midst Ji Di Tian's movement that is accompanied by the sound of a wailing ghost an odd sensation of discomfort courses through his body.

This discomfort is as if a snake had bitten him and injected him with its poison but taking this to be a consequence of overburdening his damaged body Ji Di Tian pays little heed to it.

[***.]

As soon as the effect of Ji Di Tian's Absolute Law is triggered-

*Kakaka...!* a faint crack spreads from the corners of the fox styled mask and following this the phantom body occupied by Yuzao Qian and Akatuosi distorts in form.

Although this attack wasn't accompanied by any sort of pain-

(*** ***, mièjué, extinction.)

(Tch.)

Neither Yuzao Qian or Akatuosi reacted in a positive manner as they felt the deterioration of their vessel worsening by the second.

And try as they may in attempting to expel the source of its deterioration but the rate at which the source is growing is faster than the rate that they could hope to purge it.

Making matters more difficult is that prolonged periods of exposure to the source that is causing this deterioration could end up being detrimental to their true selves.

(I'm not too satisfied with this but...)

(So be it.)

Realizing that attempting to buy more time will be more trouble than what it is worth both Yuzao Qian and Akatuosi relinquishes their control over the vessel.

As the phantom body continues to distort in form it is helplessly dragged out of its hiding spot to reveal its position to be less than 20 meters away from Ji Di Tian's back.

[...]

Rotating his cultivation base and forcefully accelerating the speed in which his wounds will heal Ji Di Tian turns his body around to face the phantom figure and-

*...!!!* with one step he appears in front of it while lunging his left hand outwards!

[In some ways I must give my gratitude to you two for what I had discovered.]

Having punctured the fox styled mask with his left hand the phantom body begins to dissipate as Ji Di Tian mutters these words in a spiteful manner.

[...]

[...]

Responding to Ji Di Tian's words with silence the phantom body breaks down completely as fragments of the fox styled mask scatters.

With Yuzao Qian and Akatuosi's vessel destroyed the darkness that shrouds this world retracts and as it does Ji Di Tian turns in the direction of Duo Tian who still has his back facing him.

[...]

Without saying another word Ji Di Tian approaches Duo Tian and just as he is about less than a hundred meters away from the latter-

"*Sigh*"

Heaving a reluctant sigh Duo Tian latches his divine sense onto an object that dwells within the dimensional rift and-

*...!!!* at the wave of his left hand the object that is being pulled upon is forcefully dragged out of the rift and hurled towards Ji Di Tian!

The shape of this object is that of a reversed pyramid with wavy patterns of golden lines decorating its glossy black surface.

Sitting upon the black pyramid's base is a throne and behind that throne is a glacier.

[...]

Narrowing his eyes and looking at the glacier that is constantly emanating cold Qi Ji Di Tian sees a clock enclosed inside of it.

This clock is made up of numerous gold and silver gears with three spears of abstract design acting as its hands.

As strange as the clock's design was Ji Di Tian's attention was more focused on the glacier itself for it gave off the air of a foreign law that is reminiscent of Cang Xue.

Without bothering to evade the colossal pyramid Ji Di Tian clashes against it with his left fist however-

*!!!* underestimating the momentum behind the colossal structure he was pushed back by a few hundred meters' worth of distance.

Despite having pushed Ji Di Tian back the pyramid didn't come out unscathed as a small crater had appeared on the part hit by Ji Di Tian.

[...?]

Just as Ji Di Tian is about to approach the pyramid again the wavy patterns of gold that decorated the surface of the structure vanishes.

*...! ...! ...! ...! ...! ...!* following the patterns' disappearance the sound of heavy pieces of machinery in movement goes off as the pyramid expands in volume and begins to disassemble itself into numerous components.

In the time it would take for one to blink their eyes Ji Di Tian found himself surrounded from all angles by the components that made up the pyramid.

"I suppose I am left with little to no choice but to play with you."

In an irritated tone Duo Tian speaks while raising his right hand towards the object that is being formed at the center of the celestial body.

It wasn't every day that such valuable pieces of materials would just fall into his hands so if possible Duo Tian really didn't wish to have to resort to using the incomplete First Heaven when knowing just how high the chances are for it to be reduced into an irreparable state. However, under the current circumstances what other choices did he have?

As ashen colored Fox Fire converges upon the object the celestial body's outline vanishes completely and in the next instance-

*...!!!* light that shines with the brightness of a supernova erupts from the First Heaven's manifestation!

"..."

Taking hold of the incomplete First Heaven with his right hand Duo Tian slowly turns to face Ji Di Tian with an ominous glow in his purple eyes.

Simultaneously the embryonic form of 18 celestial bodies manifests behind his back.

"Not quite what I had in mind but..."

Tapping the object against the palm of his left hand Duo Tian smiles in a playful manner as he looks to Ji Di Tian who is surrounded by the components that made up the black pyramid.

"I suppose it isn't that bad as a way of showing class."

[...]

As the light emanating from Duo Tian's First Heaven dies down Ji Di Tian looks upon it with a mix of wariness and surprise.

Unlike Li Jiu Tian's First Heaven that took on the form of a proper weapon Duo Tian's has taken on the form of a mundane object, an oriental fan to be specific.
