Chapter 1498 The Power of Spiritual Treasures
Bang—!
A mist of blood exploded from Wang Mian’s body, strands of white silk floating toward the sky, then returning to his body as time reversed, as if nothing had happened.
“Lucifer…” Wang Mian’s hand rested on the hilt of his [Yi Yuan] blade as he slowly spoke, “Joining the Cthulhu gods will not end well…”
Hearing these words, Lucifer’s eyes narrowed, as if realizing something:
“You’re not from this time? You’re from the future?”
In Wang Mian’s eyes, a pair of time rings connecting head to tail flowed slowly. He stood silently in front of Lu Baoyou and Fang Mo, not denying it.
“You think becoming the God of Time will help you deal with me?” Lucifer shook his head with a cold smile. “Even Chronos could hardly defeat me. You’re just a major deity now, where does your courage come from?”
“I don’t plan to defeat you,” Wang Mian’s voice was perfectly calm. “I’m just here to buy some time.”
“Buy time? Waiting for those two Heavenly Venerable from your Great Xia to save you? Even if they could…”
“Five.”
“…?” Lucifer was stunned.
“Four.”
“Three.”
“Two.”
“One…”
As Wang Mian finished speaking, the time rings in his pupils suddenly reversed direction, and a river of time appeared behind him again.
Wang Mian leaped gently backward, ripples of time law spread out, and his figure instantly vanished.
Almost simultaneously, a golden scepter surging with divine power suddenly extended from nothingness, whistling as it struck Lucifer’s back!
Boom—!!!
The surging divine power poured onto Lucifer’s six wings, sending him flying like a cannonball for several miles. He stabilized himself in midair by flapping his wings, quickly turning to look behind him, his expression extremely unpleasant!
From the void, a deep and profound black hole had opened, and a slightly plump figure wearing a Taoist robe, holding a golden scepter in one hand and a jade ruyi in the other, slowly walked out.
“Lingbao Heavenly Venerable?!”
Seeing that Taoist figure, Lucifer first froze, then his eyes flashed with shock. “How is this possible? Weren’t you already…”
“Already banished?” Lingbao Heavenly Venerable laughed coldly. “Open your eyes wide and see… what is that?”
Lingbao Heavenly Venerable pointed into the distance, and Lucifer turned to look. Above the surging Black Goat offspring, the outline of the Heavenly Court was rapidly taking shape. Misty spiritual energy swept across the sky, and streams of divine power fell like rain, covering the earth with attacks!
These were the returning gods of Great Xia, at their full strength!
The Great Xia gods, who had been recuperating for days in the Ancestral God Temple, had long healed their wounds from previous battles, regaining both their strength and fighting spirit to peak condition!
Under the Great Xia gods’ counterattack, the previously unstoppable tide of flesh was quickly contained. Another Taoist figure stood above the Heavenly Court, holding its essence in his hand. With a slight wave, he instantly crushed large numbers of Black Goat offspring into bloody pulp!
A shadow flew out from the Primordial Infinite Cave, an endless night sweeping across the land. In the next moment, Lu Baoyou and Fang Mo, who had been frozen in time, disappeared.
A young man’s figure emerged from the darkness, gazing at Lucifer in midair.
“Lin Qiye?” Lucifer sensed the familiar Seraph aura within Lin Qiye, immediately connecting him to the man Lu Baoyou had mentioned.
He carefully examined Lin Qiye. Though his realm hadn’t reached the human ceiling, the aura he emitted was almost identical to a human at the peak… No wonder Lu Baoyou was no match for such an opponent.
However, why did he also have an ancient, mysterious aura? It even suppressed Michael’s angelic presence.
For some reason, Lucifer instinctively felt repulsed the moment he sensed the Primordial Darkness aura, and combined with that natural enemy-like Seraph aura, Lin Qiye’s mere presence made him feel extremely uncomfortable.
“I’ve heard you were once Hell’s greatest warrior,” Lingbao Heavenly Venerable calmly said. “Today… let this poor Taoist experience it firsthand.”
The Primordial Infinite Cave rapidly opened beneath Lingbao Heavenly Venerable’s feet, like a black hole enveloping Lucifer’s form, with terrifying gravitational force surging from within!
Sensing the horrifying aura from Lingbao Heavenly Venerable, which was no weaker than his own, Lucifer’s expression changed again. His instincts told him he must not fight Lingbao Heavenly Venerable inside this black opening. His six wings flapped as he rapidly flew toward the sky!
However, choosing to retreat now was already too late.
Lingbao Heavenly Venerable, holding the jade ruyi, chanted obscure Taoist incantations that echoed in the sky. The Primordial Infinite Cave beneath his feet instantly reversed heaven and earth. Lucifer, who was rapidly flying upward, felt his vision blur as the black hole swallowed him whole!
Inside the pitch-black infinite opening, Lucifer’s consciousness spun wildly. Even though he constantly adjusted his position with his wings, he continued falling, falling, falling…
When his vision finally returned, before him stretched the vast, boundless universe.
In the dead silence of space, Earth appeared the size of a walnut, almost entirely covered by grayish-white mist. Only one piece of land, like the only eye in a gray-white world, silently gazed at him from deep space.
Lucifer looked up to see an absurdly massive dark yellow planet slowly drifting above him. He could even make out the patterns formed by mountain ranges on its surface—Venus, nearly 40 million kilometers from Earth.
Lucifer narrowed his eyes and looked down at the void beneath his feet. The white opening flowed slowly in space, with Lingbao Heavenly Venerable standing calmly above it, his Taoist robe moving without wind.
“All this effort just to take me away from Great Xia?” Lucifer’s lips moved slightly, his voice resonating in Lingbao Heavenly Venerable’s mind. “With the other two Heavenly Venerables not joining the fight, do you really think you can defeat me alone?”
Lingbao Heavenly Venerable’s lips curled into a slight smile. “You… overestimate yourself and underestimate this poor Taoist.”
Lingbao Heavenly Venerable slowly raised the golden scepter in his right hand. The sun in deep space suddenly blazed brilliantly. Several solar prominences, like dragons floating through the universe, carried terrifying heat capable of destroying heaven and earth, coiling behind the Taoist figure, silently roaring at Lucifer!
In this position, the sun was much closer to them than it was to Earth!
The white infinite cave beneath their feet visibly turned pitch black. Ferocious lightning formed a prison-like structure trapping Lucifer within this space.
Lingbao Heavenly Venerable, holding two supreme divine artifacts, with seemingly endless divine power surging and billowing, walked unhurriedly toward Lucifer and calmly said:
“Did you really think this poor Taoist spent thousands of years of reincarnation doing nothing?”
