Chapter 968 Battle with Susanoo
A gray and a blue figure approached rapidly, causing Susanoo at the peak of the corpse mountain to feel a surge of fury.
Having just been severely wounded by Merlin and not yet fully recovered, more human insects had come to challenge his authority?
Susanoo’s remaining arm reached out into the air above the corpse mountain, unleashing surging divine power as a terrifying aura of law descended.
Ocean Law.
The blood-colored ocean surrounding the divine realm began to churn violently, as if drawn by some mysterious force, transforming into thousands of massive water pillars that shot skyward, rolling toward the center of Takamagahara.
The blood-colored seawater converged into a gradually expanding vortex, encircling the corpse mountain like a red stellar ring, protecting the Ocean God at its center.
In an instant, the violently churning blood-colored ocean suddenly slowed, with water droplets nearly suspended in mid-air, as a gray figure stepped across the stagnant seawater, the sword at his waist flashing out of its scabbard.
Clang!
Time flowed rapidly around Wang Mian, with [Yi Yuan]’s speed enhanced to a terrifying degree, a massive concentrated blade light instantly cut through the stagnant water vortex, heading straight for Susanoo’s body.
Susanoo’s brows furrowed slightly as he coldly snorted, stomping his right foot heavily on the peak of the corpse mountain.
Invisible ripples spread out, and the suspended seawater in the sky instantly broke free from time’s shackles, churning violently again as a pair of giant hands formed from the waves, forcefully crushing that blade light.
The seawater soaked Wang Mian’s cloak as his expression grew increasingly grave.
“The power of Law…”
The human ceiling-level [Time Sequence Thug] could indeed affect deities, but ultimately, what he used was still just spirit power driving the divine ruins, which couldn’t maintain time stop for long under the impact of Ocean Law.
Boom!!
Wave after wave of blood-colored tsunamis rose up as the power of Law surged wildly. In this domain of divine wrath, killing intent lurked within every falling drop of water.
Among the rolling waves, Wang Mian gripped his sword with one hand, his pale hair floating in the wind as he rapidly moved through the gaps between waves.
Due to his accelerated time flow, the water surface remained relatively still with each of Wang Mian’s steps, only sinking and splashing after his figure passed.
But no matter how fast Wang Mian was, he couldn’t overcome the hundreds of massive waves continuously blocking his path.
In a flash, Wang Mian passed through wave after wave, but just as he was about to reach Susanoo, the waves beneath his feet suddenly rose up, transforming into a sky-covering giant hand that crashed down.
At that moment, a sword light flashed out from behind him.
Clad in blue and standing on a crimson sword, Wu Xiangnan flew rapidly between the waves, his Kusanagi sword tracing a flower pattern as it instantly sliced the giant wave before Wang Mian into scattered rain.
“Didn’t I tell you to keep your distance?” Wang Mian frowned upon seeing Wu Xiangnan riding his sword.
“You alone are no match for him,” Wu Xiangnan shook his head. “Though my realm isn’t high, with this Kusanagi sword, I’m not without fighting power.”
Wang Mian started, as if remembering something, and smiled helplessly, “I almost forgot, in terms of sword skill alone, you’re a monster who could fight evenly with Zhou Ping… I wonder if after lying low for so many years, you, the undying swordsman of the [Blue Rain] team, still maintain your former glory?”
“My sword will never rust.”
Wu Xiangnan replied calmly, then rode his crimson forbidden sword into the surging waves, brilliant sword light blooming from his hands like a dense net, carving out a hollow path through the waves.
Peak human sword skill combined with the Kusanagi sword that could cut through all things elevated Wu Xiangnan’s combat power to a terrifying level!
Seemingly sensing the Kusanagi sword’s aura, Susanoo roared in anger, mobilizing his divine power to try and reclaim this divine weapon that originally belonged to Takamagahara directly from Wu Xiangnan’s hands.
But he overlooked a crucial point.
This Kusanagi sword was given to him by Amaterasu during the Red Moon Chaos, and now Wu Xiangnan carried Amaterasu’s solar essence!
As Wu Xiangnan deliberately channeled the essence within his body, the Kusanagi sword in his hand merely trembled slightly at Susanoo’s call before returning to stillness.
To the Kusanagi sword, the aura on Wu Xiangnan’s body was closer to its original owner.
This sword could no longer be reclaimed by Susanoo…
Flames of anger nearly consumed his body as he stomped heavily on the corpse mountain, his massive form leaping down from the peak, blocking half the red moon as countless seawater rolled up to his fist, crashing down toward those two figures!
At that moment, the sky visibly darkened.
Night fell.
The pitch-black night shrouded the blood-colored sky, almost completely covering the red moon, as the deep darkness silently devoured everything in the world like a soundless monster.
At the edge of this darkness, a deep red figure sat cross-legged on a meditation cushion, slowly rising from the broken ground.
Lin Qiye closed his eyes, his deep red cloak completely merging with the night, as if the darkness above was an extension of his body. He sat there quietly, like the ruler commanding the night.
Enhanced by the meditation cushion, Lin Qiye’s [Dark Erosion] was amplified to a level comparable to the divine realm.
In an instant, endless darkness crawled up Susanoo’s body like grotesque black snakes, beginning to contest control of his body.
That giant figure crashing down from the sky suddenly stiffened for a moment.
Whoosh!!
Seeing this, Wang Mian’s turbid eyes flashed with light as his figure dissolved into time, leaving an afterimage as he rushed skyward.
A blade light brilliant to the extreme bloomed once more!
The blade light cut by [Yi Yuan] sliced through a corner of Susanoo’s waist, causing fresh blood to spray out and fall into the surging blood-colored ocean, making it boil once more.
This strike had wounded Susanoo!
As Susanoo struggled free from the darkness’s restraint, before he could act, a blue-clad figure appeared on his sword behind him, and a sword light immediately thrust out from his back!
The Kusanagi sword easily pierced through his shoulder blade, leaving a shocking bloody hole.
Roars echoed in the sky as endless ocean phantoms gathered behind Susanoo, and a giant blade formed of seawater instantly thrust out toward Wu Xiangnan’s figure.
Wu Xiangnan’s eyes trembled as he was about to grit his teeth and dodge, when the night around him suddenly enveloped his form, and the next moment he vanished into the night sky.
