Divine God Against The Heavens Chapter 1123 Ch 1123: Another Trump Card
Right now, shock and fury consumed the Devil entirely. His eyes appeared ready to spew flames. Never in any of his eight distinct memories had he endured such a grave insult.
Trapped within a Source Universe so fragile that Chaos inhabitants could shatter it effortlessly, he had been slapped across the face by another.
"You are courting death!"
"Pa!"
The Devil bellowed and lunged at Ye Xiao. Yet the moment his body shifted, an odd sensation struck him. His left cheek took another hit, blood gushing from his mouth as his form hurtled backward.
"Waa, another slap!"
"Why does it feel so good to watch Ye Xiao slapping the devil?" Yue Ying burst into laughter as she said.
Ye Xiao lightly flicked his hand, sighing deeply in his mind. Having unleashed the Projection of the Universe, the Power of the Universe flowed through him. This immense strength let him toy with the Devil at will, drawing blood despite the foe's Heavenly Demon form.
He now resembled a raging dragon freed from the shackles of heaven and earth.
Ye Xiao's pair of rapid slaps left the Devil completely dumbfounded. Across endless years of existence, such deep humiliation had never befallen him.
That deed jolted the still-stunned Devil, turning his eyes blood-red in an instant while his surrounding aura erupted violently.
"Ignorant brat, I'll let you see my true abilities. I'll send you to hell and make you regret humiliating me like this!"
"Devil Soveriegn Descent!"
With the Devil's enraged shout, the void quivered, and a colossal shadow materialized behind him.
The instant that shadow emerged, the Devil's aura turned wildly savage. Space rocked wildly as a ferocious energy surged skyward.
Ye Xiao sensed peril immediately, an overwhelming danger that made his heart shudder—this technique was utterly horrifying.
He hadn't foreseen the Devil concealing such a powerful ace. He'd misjudged the enemy's depth and inflated his own prowess. Believing the Power of the Universe would let him crush the Devil with ease, he'd never imagined the foe's true horror.
No wonder, as the merged essence of eight True Divine Gods teetering on the edge of Chaos Being transformation.
Ye Xiao realized he couldn't afford more delays. The Devil had to fall swiftly. His feet flashed again, employing teleportation to appear before the Devil, then unleashed a punch.
But just as Ye Xiao struck, contempt gleamed in the Devil's gaze, filling him with alarm.
"Boom!"
A massive fist stretching hundreds of meters brutally hammered Ye Xiao's enormous frame, sending him soaring with a thunderous blast.
"Puff!"
The sheer dread force forced Ye Xiao to spew three successive mouthfuls of blood. Such overwhelming might proved too much, even for one bolstered by a full universe.
Ye Xiao wasn't surprised. His universe currently capped at the Ancient God Realm limit, rivaling the might of the former Heavens.
Before a True Divine God, a universe of that caliber offered zero resistance.
Earlier, Ye Xiao had drawn not just his Fake Divine God Realm power, but the universe's complete force, unleashing that stunning might.
Yet now, with the Devil's trump card revealed, the universe's power lost its prior dominance.
He understood the universe's power could only challenge this Devil after another evolution, raising its ceiling to Fake Divine God Realm.
But that breakthrough was far from simple. Heavens had required devouring endless Chaos Beast corpses and Chaos armies to surpass its limits and advance.
"Boom!"
Ye Xiao lifted his gaze to the Devil, meeting a sneer of utter mockery.
The dark light figure behind the Devil slowly drew back its fist. Clearly, that devastating blow had come from this shadowy form.
"Brat, go die!"
The Devil roared, striding forward to close the gap. A titanic illusion sprawled across the entire universe behind him, its enormous palm blotting out sky and earth as it smashed toward Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao drew a steady breath, clenched his fists tight, twisted his body sharply, and hammered out a fierce punch straight ahead.
"Bang!"
Though it was his maximum effort strike, Ye Xiao still got blasted away. Another gush of blood escaped his lips, the assault far beyond his endurance.
Ye Xiao stretched his hand to erase the bloodstain from the corner of his mouth and drew in a profound breath. Right at the moment he prepared to advance, a voice abruptly echoed beside Ye Xiao's ears.
The voice belonged to the Domineering God Crystal.
Earlier, the Domineering God Crystal had instructed him against using the Infinity Edge Blade during his clash with this Devil. Because of that, Ye Xiao had stored away the Infinity Edge Blade and confronted the Devil directly.
He didn't know the reason behind the Domineering God Crystal's command, yet he trusted it had a purpose. It would never bring him any harm.
Now, hearing the Domineering God Crystal's voice once more, shock surged through him, and he quickly grasped why it had forbidden the Infinity Edge Blade in battle.
Whenever he clashed with the Devil and touched his form, the Domineering God Crystal quietly absorbed a minuscule portion of the Devil's essence and Chaos Energy. It was forging an item to aid Ye Xiao in securing victory.
The Domineering God Crystal had foreseen that Ye Xiao stood no chance against this Devil, even unleashing his utmost power.
Victory over the Devil and his demise required just two paths for Ye Xiao.
The first demanded aid from something utterly fearsome to battle the Devil.
The second involved deploying the Bloodline of Calamity or its granted power, The Casual Punishment.
Yet, activating the Bloodline of Calamity or <The Casual Punishment> would overwhelm Ye Xiao's body with the recoil and consequences, shattering it apart.
Thus, the second path was discarded.
Only the first path lingered.
Therefore, the Domineering God Crystal crafted something for Ye Xiao to vanquish the Devil.
At this pivotal instant, the Domineering God Crystal at last completed its creation.
"Boom!"
All at once, white flames engulfed Ye Xiao's body entirely. This fearsome blaze illuminated the heavens, while its blistering heat warped the world ceaselessly.
"Phew!"
Ye Xiao's feet shifted, propelling him straight before the stunned Devil, his White Flame-wreathed fist crashing down fiercely.
"Boom!"
For some unknown reason, the Devil sensed peril from this blaze. He hastily defended, but upon colliding with Ye Xiao's fist, the horrifying flames surged up his arm instantly.
"Ah!"
A piercing shriek erupted from the Devil. The dread White Flame raced along his limb, causing his whole arm to shrivel visibly to the naked eye.
"Pa!"
The Devil snapped off his arm right away and retreated swiftly. By the time he steadied himself, a fresh arm had already sprouted.
"What kind of flame is this? How did you harm me?" Terror forced the Devil to shriek and demand. He was utterly frightened, unable to fathom Ye Xiao's method or the nature of this horrifying flame that wounded him so severely.
By all reason, no abilities, fires, laws, or other forces from a Source Universe ought to damage him.
Yet, Ye Xiao's White Flame assault proved too much; he endured grave harm and felt dread creep into his heart for the first time.
"Idiot! Do you really think I'll tell you?"
Ye Xiao sneered coldly, inwardly thrilled with relief. The Domineering God Crystal had forged this White Flame just in time. Without it, doom awaited him here.
