Chapter 551 The First Battle of Sainthood
In the past, when he was in the upper world, Taishang Haotian had seen the power of "time" in Zi Wei's hands, and was frustrated by it more than once.
The various avenues he has mastered by himself are not as powerful as Zi Wei in frontal combat.
But Ziwei can always predict many of his ideas and tactics accurately and respond in advance.
Many times he carefully planned operations to eliminate Ziwei's gang members, but all failed inexplicably - the enemy could always move quietly before he arrived.
He initially thought there was a mole among his men.
However, as his understanding of the Great Way of Heaven and Earth continued to deepen, he gradually became able to feel the ripples of the Great Way, and also discovered that someone had tampered with the passage of time.
In the eyes of a high-level monk like him, the Avenue of Heaven and Earth is like a calm lake. Once a saint or someone above uses the power of Tao, it will cause ripples like a pebble dropped into water.
Just now, having noticed the fluctuation of Taoism, Emperor Tianxing interrupted the reverse flow of time in time, preventing Gu Xu from going back to an earlier time.
“You have returned to the realm of saint.”
The projection of Emperor Tianxing rose into the air, looking straight at Gu Xu in front of him.
He was actually a little surprised.
Because Gu Xu’s promotion was too quiet, not even the slightest sign of the heaven and earth.
But he was not too surprised.
After all, Zi Wei has always been cunning and cunning in the past. Maybe he secretly used some kind of trick to block the secrets of heaven, just to trick him at the critical moment.
"The majestic Supreme Being of the Upper Realm actually personally dealt with a sixth-level monk. Don't you think it's a bargain?" Gu Xu used his true energy to send Zhao Yan in his arms back to the ground and narrowed his eyes slightly. While he was speaking, Luo Chuan, Xu Man and Zhao Changying also traveled through space one after another and appeared next to him.
"When you were walking, have you ever noticed the ants on the ground that you trampled to death?" Emperor Tianxing's voice was as cold as ever, as if he didn't care about the sarcasm in Gu Xu's words.
As he spoke, he pointed the Tai'a sword in his hand at Gu Xu.
Ten thousand rays of light burst out from the sword's edge.
Like countless golden blades, dazzling and capable of cutting everything into pieces.
He was even more murderous than when he dealt with Kunpeng before.
Facing this eternal enemy of life and death for thousands of years, Emperor Tianxing’s projection did not test or hold back. As soon as he made a move, he superimposed the three powers of "Sun", "Shou Yao" and "Killing" on him. At the same time, I want to take advantage of the other party's low level and kill him in one move.
It was just as Emperor Tianxing expected.
When these dense beams of light touched Gu Xu, Gu Xu used the power of "Qian Kun" to distort the space without thinking.
The figures of him and the people around him suddenly became flickering.
It seems to be still in the real world, but in fact it is temporarily hidden in the void.
Seeing such a scene, a hint of teasing smile appeared on Emperor Tianxing's extremely cold face.
In the past, in the upper realm, Zi Wei might have been able to avoid his move.
But today’s Emperor Tianxing was well prepared.
With the authority of "Shou Yao", he has locked Gu Xu's fate - no matter how he blocks or dodges, Tai'a sword light will hit him.
"Shou Yao" refers to the number of life and death of a person, which brings misfortunes and blessings day and night.
This power can ignore defense and directly control a person's life span on the fate level.
The "Book of Life and Death" in the Yama Palace and the shackles that Gu Xu saw in the illusion in front of Chiyangzi's tomb were all transformed by the power of this authority.
With the power of "Shou Yao", Supreme Haotian can turn the wilderness into a huge cage, and firmly control the misfortune and longevity of all prisoners.
Of course, this kind of large-scale control over other people's lives is not without limitations.
For example, after a monk reaches the sixth realm, he will be removed from the "Book of Life and Death" and get rid of the fate determined by the authority of "Shou Yao".
The reason why the remnant soul of Emperor Ziwei has been dormant in Gu Xu's body for a long time, rather than directly finding a talented practitioner to take over and be reborn, is to prevent it from being recorded in the "Book of Life and Death". However, in a face-to-face, one-on-one situation, the power of "Shou Yao"'s authority will be greatly enhanced, and people with lower cultivation levels than him will have a hard time surviving.
It can be said that the moment Emperor Tianxing made his move, Gu Xu's lifespan came to an end.
At this time, Emperor Tianxing stared closely at Gu Xu in front of him.
The enemy is about to die.
The more critical the moment came, the more he could not let down his guard.
He had to see Zi Wei's soul fly to pieces with his own eyes.
However, things did not happen as he thought.
The blazing light on the Tai'a sword passed straight through Gu Xu's body, but did not cause any harm to him.
Gu Xu's calm gaze fell into his eyes, like a silent mockery.
“How could it be?”
The projection of Emperor Tianxing is quite incredible.
Even his physical body, which was far away in the palace in Luojing City, also frowned deeply.
With the authority of "Shou Yao", he concentrated his mind and tried to check Gu Xu's fate.
Then he was surprised to find that Zi Wei's current destiny was not within the two realms!
“This is impossible!”
Emperor Tian Xing was shocked again.
The authority of "Shou Yao" has another limitation - as a power evolved from the world's laws, it only takes effect on souls born in the same world.
Tai Shang Haotian and Emperor Zi Wei were originally monks in the upper realm.
And everyone in the Great Wilderness now is also a prisoner who has been exiled from the upper world.
Logically speaking, he can control the life and death of all living beings in both worlds with a single thought.
But at this moment, Zi Wei seems to be in this world, but in fact he is a variable outside the world, and has not been affected by the power of "Shou Yao" at all.
“No wonder Emperor Ziwei had to expend so much effort to drag my soul from the earth, and merge my cause and effect with his into one.” Seeing the astonishment of Emperor Tianxing’s projection Looking confused, a complicated smile appeared on Gu Xu's face, and he thought to himself, "It turns out that I am preparing for today."
…………
The battle between Emperor Tianxing and Gu Xu happened between the rise of the rabbit and the fall of the falcon. Before anyone on the battlefield could react, they had already fought for a round.
After a brief shock, bursts of excited shouts suddenly erupted on the battlefield.
"The Emperor! It's the Emperor!"
"The Supreme Khan!"
"The God of Fire!"
"The Emperor is here! Chief Luo, the old Duke and the Master of the Jiange Pavilion are all here! We are saved!"
"The Emperor, kill the Dog Emperor! Kill Luo Jing and take his bird position!"< br>
"..."
Before, Emperor Tianxing killed Kunpeng lightly. The soldiers of the rebel army were originally in a panic, and the helpless mood enveloped their hearts, causing their morale to fall to the bottom.
But now, when Gu Xu came out to fight like a saint, and effortlessly resolved the fatal trick used by Emperor Tianxing to kill Kunpeng, the gloom on their faces was swept away, and their brows The wrinkles are instantly relaxed.
