San Tian Liang Jue
Chapter 846 Hyperdimensional Melee (34) Qi Tian Di
"Oh dear, oh dear..." Kisuke Urahara in the distance adjusted his hat, looking at the dark mass of demon soldiers above the canyon and said with a bitter smile, "Our plan... seems to have been seen through..."
"Heh... how can you still laugh..." Although he said that, Su Loulongsu himself laughed too, "Now... we really are in dire straits..."
"Oh~ right..." On the other side, Da Ji, standing above the canyon, waved her hand. A few seconds later, a demon general stepped forward and handed her a head. "There's something... I want to return to you..." Saying that, she casually threw the head down the canyon.
Seeing this, Kongming waved his feather fan, creating a visible gust of wind out of thin air, "blowing" the head in front of him.
Then, he grabbed the head with one arm, examining its features.
Sure enough... the owner of this head was the mole who was supposed to cooperate with them from the inside.
"Sending Keiji to be a spy... it really suits your style..." At this time, Da Ji continued, "Neither someone who 'looks particularly trustworthy' nor someone who 'looks particularly untrustworthy' is suitable for this job... Only someone like Keiji, who is 'arbitrary and unpredictable', is the most difficult to expose."
Zhuge Liang did not speak; he knew Da Ji was showing off.
Sima Yi did not speak either; he was thinking about how to salvage the situation.
Jimo Hou coughed silently, also mourning for Cang in his heart...
Everyone present with a little intelligence had already realized that the current situation... was truly terrible.
According to the original plan, their Transcendental Army (let's call them that for now) should have suddenly arrived at the gate of Guzi Castle in full condition, and then, with the help of Maeda Keiji (the mole), they would break into the city in one go, blocking the demon army's respawn point to start the slaughter. Then, a small team... would follow Keiji to remove the seal.
However...
The actual development was... the most crucial "guide" in this operation had already been killed; and they themselves... had been counter-ambushed at the bottom of the canyon by tens of thousands of demon soldiers.
Even if they could use their strength to break out, fighting the demon army here was different from fighting at Guzi Castle. Because Orochi's army could "revive infinitely," if the battle lines were stretched... the Transcendental Army would be constantly worn down and scattered on the way to the attack. By the time they reached Guzi Castle, it would be hard to say how many people would be left.
Next, what the demon army needed to do was delay and wear them down. Even if the Transcendental Army was not exhausted and wiped out... once Orochi returned to the castle, everything would be over.
"Hehehe..." Da Ji looked at the expressions of the people in the canyon and laughed triumphantly a few more times, "I suppose you all understand... your conspiracy has been nipped in the bud. How about this... I'll give you another chance..." She paused, her expression slightly straightened, "Among you... if anyone wants to join Lord Orochi's command, there is still one last chance... as long as you come over here, I will spare your lives."
"Ho~ an opportunity..." Feng Bujue was a little tempted when he heard this, "This script has been going on for so long... and I haven't had any direct conflict with Orochi's forces, and... Orochi has heard of my name, and... judging from the situation, they have a great advantage in this round..."
Although he was tempted, Brother Jue did not jump over impatiently. He was still a calm and meticulous person, and he still had some concerns: first, Da Ji's words... cannot be fully believed. This fox demon is not a kind person, and she might go back on her word and kill the surrendered generals; second, according to Brother Jue's understanding of the Three Universes of Musou, Thunderbolt, and Dragon Ball... the weakest Boss among the three factions is Orochi. According to common sense, the strength of Qitian Di and Frieza must be above Orochi. These days... it's not about being afraid of doing the wrong thing, but about standing on the wrong side. One must not join the wrong camp because of the momentary advantage.
"What? No one coming out?" Da Ji waited for about thirty seconds and found that no one was paying attention to her. "Fine... then you..." Her expression turned fierce, "Just be killed happily!" When she said the last half of the sentence, her gentle "maiden voice" had turned into a "queen's voice."
Whoosh...
The tens of thousands of demon soldiers and generals also cheered under Da Ji's command, their momentum overwhelming.
"Everyone... things have come to this..." Zhuge Liang sighed and said, "There is only a desperate battle..."
"Cough cough..." Jimo Hou also added, "Even if it's extremely difficult... the original plan cannot be changed... Please go all out and regroup at the gate of Guzi Castle!"
Jimo Hou knew that this kind of "martial arts tournament" might not happen a second time; and the head of the Six Strings would never have a second. Therefore, today's opportunity cannot be replicated... even if they have to bite the bullet and go.
Thus, the Transcendental Army also shouted, their fighting spirit soaring, and a blazing murderous aura burst out from the bottom of the canyon, rising into the sky.
Just at this critical point, when the great battle was about to begin and a rain of blood was about to fall...
Time seemed to freeze.
In the sky, the swirling clouds moved slightly.
A wave of energy emanated from the clouds above the canyon...
In this instant, both armies above and below the canyon felt a terrifying pressure.
Not only them, but every conscious life form in the entire other dimension felt it...
...
"Hmm?" Orochi, who was trapped in the Xuan Gang Sword Array on the martial arts stage, actually turned his head and looked north, "What is that..." A look of solemnity appeared on his face for the first time.
The four people in the array, although they did not stop the formation, could not help but be distracted and think anxiously.
"It's him..." Cold sweat appeared on Feng Zhihen's palm.
"Is this a god..." Yuan Wuzang thought to himself.
"Such exaggerated power... compared to him, Luo Jiang Shen is simply not worth mentioning..." Heizi exclaimed in his heart.
And Cang... didn't even want to think about the name of that "person."
...
Beep beep beep—boom!
"mLgBd..." Frieza, on the edge of Musou Plain, said something in an alien language that meant something similar to that, and shook his head,甩了甩头, shaking off the remnants of the combat power detector stuck to his face, "Hmph... the new model with an upper limit of eight digits actually exploded..."
Hearing this sentence, the members of the Ginyu Force, who were standing around him covering their faces (their detectors had also exploded), all showed shocked expressions.
"This... could it... could it really be a machine malfunction?" Ginyu was so frightened that his face turned purple (although it was originally purple), "The interruption of communication and the disappearance of combat power of Kui, Dodoria, and Sabo... should also be the reason for this."
"Hmph..." Ping Qingsheng, who was watching coldly from the side, snorted, "Isn't it too naive to say such a thing?"
"Hmm?" Ginyu turned his head and glared at Ping Qingsheng, "What do you mean?"
"He's right." Even in this situation, Frieza remained calm and said with a smile, "There's no point in this kind of self-deception..." He paused for half a second and looked at Ginyu, "Ginyu, take the Special Forces and go north to investigate the situation." He then looked at Ping Qingsheng, "Ping, you come with me to the martial arts stage... it's time to meet that 'Demon King'."
...
Returning to the canyon north of Musou Plain...
"Wh... what's going on?" Da Ji looked up at the sky, and an undisguised fear flowed from her eyes.
"What... exactly is..." Kisuke Urahara pressed his hat down, and his eyes under the shadow revealed solemnity.
"Could it be..." Zhuge Liang murmured, "The legendary..."
"It can't be wrong!" Sima Yi turned to him and said, "Hahaha... Kongming, I didn't expect that we would both die here together!"
Dum—dum—
Suddenly, a piece of BGM with layered musical harmonies as the main melody, magnificent momentum, and full of迫力 (迫力, po li, impact/force) rang out.
When he heard the music, Feng Bujue knew who was coming... there was only one "person" in this world who used "God of Destruction" as his theme song.
Chi chi chi—
In an instant, three figures leaped up the canyon like startled geese, arriving opposite Orochi's army.
Fo Jian Fen Shuo (Buddha), Su Loulongsu (Confucian), Jian Zi Xian Ji (Tao), the Three Sages, walking together through thick and thin.
They... all perceived the true face of the power in the sky in the first instant, so they... all stood on the front line to face "God" in the first instant.
"The two of you... I didn't expect that we could see such a scene again in our lifetime." Su Loulongsu looked up at the sky and pondered.
"This time... I'm afraid it's even more dangerous than last time." Jian Zi Xian Ji replied.
"'God's' true form... how strong is it..." Fo Jian's expression was heavy, and his voice revealed a hint of despair.
"What are you talking about?" Da Ji, who was standing opposite the canyon, heard their conversation and asked anxiously, "What exactly is that thing up there?"
"Hmph... you'll see soon." Su Loulongsu snorted in response.
Before his voice fell, a roar was heard... tearing through the clouds.
Then, a pillar of light pierced through the air and landed on Musou Plain.
A black figure fell from the pillar of light.
At this moment, the earth, the sky, time, and space... all began to tremble.
The "person" in the pillar of light did not speak, but only used a cold gaze to overlook everything under his feet. Just like that... a large number of demon soldiers in Orochi's army were pressed to the ground by his invisible pressure and could not move.
"You've got to be kidding me..." Xiao Tan looked at the sky, cold sweat streaming down his face, "What is this pressure... I'm standing here without moving... and it's actually reducing my stamina?"
"This is too outrageous..." Even Ruo Yu couldn't help but say such a comment.
And Feng Bujue breathed a sigh of relief: "Good thing I was smart... I didn't jump to Orochi's side just now... less than half a minute later, an even more ruthless one came."
Boom—
A moment later, the man in the pillar of light finally arrived on Musou Plain.
On Musou Plain, the flames of war rise.
Heroes gather, the emperor arrives.
Weapons appear, together to slay the demon.
Star array, schemes to seize the city.
Qitian Di finally descends.
The moment his toes lightly touched the ground, the entire other dimension... tilted. An unparalleled power swept out like a tsunami, spreading in all directions.
The Three Sages were prepared, and the Buddha Seal, Purple Dragon Shadow, and Golden Sword combined to unleash a "Three Peaks United" to guard the canyon entrance and block the divine might.
The three of them went all out, barely managing to withstand this wave of impact, preventing the people below the canyon from being affected.
But... Orochi's army was in a terrible state. Apart from Da Ji and a very few demon generals who could still use demon energy to resist, the tens of thousands of demon soldiers behind them were simply like paper, crushed by this impact, with more than half of them dead or injured...
"The human world... is tainted again."
Qitian Di's first line after standing still was still that famous line that no one could match.
Vast power, not of mortal origin.
The God of Destruction descends upon the Transcendental Otherworld.
Black robes, black hair, demonic countenance.
Qitian Di did not possess the霸气 (霸气, ba qi, domineering aura) of a king, the仙气 (仙气, xian qi, immortal aura) of a Taoist, the 侠气 (侠气, xia qi, chivalrous aura) of a knight-errant, nor the 谦睿 (谦睿, qian rui, humble wisdom) of a Confucian, nor the 圣洁 (圣洁, sheng jie, holiness) of a Buddhist.
Because... he did not belong to any of these.
Because... he was not human at all.
The 霸气 (霸气, ba qi, domineering aura) of a god need not be revealed, it exists in the hearts of those who are awed; a god need not ask about morality, chivalry is even less worth mentioning; a god need not be humble to humans, his wisdom cannot be understood by humans; a god is naturally holy, even if he brings destruction.
Most of the people who survived the impact looked at Qitian Di with stunned eyes, their minds in a semi-blank state.
Even the Three Sages, who had directly faced Qitian Di in the Bitter Realm, trembled this time...
Back then, the Qitian Di who descended upon the Bitter Realm was only a "divine sense." Until his divine sense returned to the Six Heavens Realm... the physical body he occupied, the strengthened version of the Holy Demon Primordial Embryo, only bore less than half of his power.
And it was this less than half of the power that was already capable of being "unbeatable in the world."
"Th... this guy..." Da Ji, who was witnessing Qitian Di's power for the first time, had a pale face and trembled violently.
She wanted to escape, but she couldn't even take a step.
A terrifying thought, for the first time in her life, appeared in her mind—Lord Orochi might lose.
"Kisuke Urahara..." Qitian Di's second sentence was to call out a person's name.
Qitian Di rarely remembered other people's names. Those who could have their names remembered by him were usually the kind who "took one of his moves and didn't die." There were not many people who could meet this condition...
Now, he actually called out Urahara's name proactively, which made even Kisuke himself feel a little flattered.
"Heh... hehe..." Urahara looked up at Qitian Di from the bottom of the canyon, laughing dryly. Even he was a little surprised that he could still laugh in this situation, "What do you want from me?"
"Hand over the Hogyoku." Qitian Di went straight to the point, stating his demand.
As soon as the words fell, Urahara, Zhuge Liang, Jimo Hou, Su Loulongsu, Feng Bujue, and everyone else present who knew the effect of the Hogyoku, all changed their expressions.
"Heh..." Urahara pondered for a few seconds, then gave another wry smile. His hand also unconsciously rested on a wooden cane at his waist (his Zanpakuto was hidden inside the cane), "Can I ask... what do you want to use that thing for?"
"You already know the answer, why ask again?" Qitian Di replied in a deep voice.
"Hahaha... that's right..." Urahara smiled, drew his sword from the cane, and released his spiritual pressure, "Then I only have two sentences to say to you..." He paused, "The first sentence... I refuse." His eyes gradually turned cold, "The second sentence... even if I die, I will not hand it over to you."
"Hmm?" Qitian Di took a deep look at him, "Very well... I will grant your wish."
After saying that, Qitian Di raised one hand, and a divine move appeared!
"Flame of God."
