Divine power and primeval divine power, with no other impurities, were both extremely pure manifestations of energy. Created with divine power, destroyed with divine power, nurtured with divine power, their strength contained the evolution of all things.
The Harmonious Universe Realm, the Divine Lords among the Divine race, the Primeval Lords among the Primeval race. As the name suggested, the Harmonious Universe Realm meant that one’s cultivation had gradually merged with the universe, coming into contact with the matter and laws within it. Whether one could truly comprehend them depended entirely on oneself.
Just as Xia Kudu had once said, most Harmonious Universe Realm cultivators accumulated their power bit by bit through their long lifespans, rather than breaking through realms through innate talent. Such Divine Lords, even at their peak, were merely fish and shrimp, not worth worrying about.
Amidst the brilliant blood-red light, He Li carried his single saber on his shoulder and unleashed a hundred beams of divine light, striking the Primeval Lord guarding the Primeval King’s Divine Palace. Explosions continuously spread colorful ripples.
He Li’s brow furrowed, his heart tightening. This Primeval Lord was different from all those he had fought before. If it were similar, he thought of the Xi Ling Primeval Lord, who had mastered two-tenths to three-tenths of the laws of time and had died by his hand.
Another Primeval Lord who mastered some kind of law-based power!
Upon realizing this, He Li rapidly retreated, his figure flickering continuously, creating a thousand-zhang distance between himself and the Primeval Lord.
Boom!
A white bone serpent spear flew out from the explosion, sweeping across the air, extinguishing the flames. The Primeval Lord stepped onto the suspended serpent spear, looking at He Li, and chuckled, “I am Xi Chong. Xia Kudu has been trapped in the river of time. Who can come to save you now?”
“Arrogant words!” He Li coldly regarded the Primeval Lord, disdainfully saying, “You were not my match in the last battle. This time, you will also be killed by me.”
“This time is different,” Xi Chong said, clasping his hands behind his back, bending slightly forward, and smiling. “Even if you have the laws of time on your side, I have comprehended the supreme laws of divine abilities, and I am now capable of fighting you.”
As expected!
Although He Li appeared disdainful, his heart was extremely cautious. The three divine artifacts in his sea of consciousness had already emitted divine light, preparing to be summoned in an emergency.
Xi Chong said no more, as further talk was useless. He revealed his killing intent and lunged at He Li. The white bone serpent spear was like a dragon and snake, emitting divine light in the air. Dozens of flood dragons flew out from the divine light, striking He Li from above.
He Li advanced instead of retreating, holding his saber horizontally and pushing it forward. The blade erupted with divine power, like rolling waves, crushing the dozens of flood dragons flat. The sky was left with only a white light.
The white light was split into two by a sharp beam of light, which pierced directly towards He Li.
He Li neither dodged nor evaded, pushing out a palm. A miniature golden cauldron rotated in his palm.
Rumble!!!
An immensely powerful impact swept across the entire battlefield, even affecting the battlefields of Divine Lord Yi Yao and Divine Lord Shen Tu. The sky in the central battlefield trembled incessantly.
All the gods of the Divine and Primeval races engaged in battle looked towards the center of the explosion.
Hum!!!
Ripples emanated from the center of the explosion. He Li stood tall, holding his saber in one hand and the cauldron in the other, walking out slowly. The surrounding space exploded again, but it could not affect He Li in the slightest, as if he did not exist in this time and space.
“It’s useless. Even if you master the supreme laws, reach the heavens, and become omnipotent, you can only exert your power at that moment. You cannot affect my past or my future in the slightest. Even for a single second, a second ago or a second later, your abilities will have no effect on me.”
He Li’s figure slowly paced, speaking indifferently, unconcerned by the constantly shattering void around him and the clashing divine powers.
In the distance,
Divine Lord Shen Tu watched He Li in silence. He understood He Li’s words perfectly. This meant that even if the current He Li were killed, the He Li from a second ago would cross time and arrive in the present.
Even if He Li died, and the future He Li did not exist, He Li had existed for the past twenty-odd years. One second was enough for He Li to return. How many seconds could be used in twenty years?
To control time was to be immortal.
If He Li did not die, then he would exist in the future. Even if the current He Li was severely injured and unable to help himself, a stronger He Li from the future would return. Even if a second was taken from a certain period in the future, the He Li of that moment would be enough for He Li to recover.
He Li stood before the shattered void, placed his saber in mid-air, then clenched his fist, and opened his palm again. A small square space rotated in his palm. “What you have mastered is nothing more than spatial laws, and you have only taken your first steps. How dare you show off in front of me? I can use this small spatial cube to contain all that you have comprehended.”
Although the battlefield was vast and the front lines were extremely long, He Li’s voice still reached the ears of every god, who heard him clearly.
“You are so overconfident and arrogant. Did time not only grant you combat power and comprehension, but also a heart of arrogance?” Xi Chong looked at the small spatial cube in He Li’s hand and chuckled disdainfully. “Two-Universe Realm boundary gods have the opportunity to comprehend space and time, but very few dare to touch them. Since you have mastered the laws of time, it is not surprising that you also possess space.
However, to think that this alone is enough to kill me is a bit too presumptuous and arrogant.”
He reached out and gently grabbed the void, conjuring several spatial cubes identical to He Li’s in front of him.
“Independent spaces are nothing special. I can create dozens or hundreds casually. Alright, I’d like to see how you plan to contain my law power.”
He Li ignored him and gently pushed out the small spatial cube. The space within it grew smaller and smaller in the air, eventually becoming a speck of light.
Instantly,
The moment the speck of light disappeared, a storm erupted. A tornado that could reach the heavens formed between the two of them. The space around the tornado was shattered, revealing endless dark, illusory realms.
“Heh heh…” He Li chuckled and said, “It doesn’t fit? Then I’ll break it and then contain it. The scattered spatial fragments will eventually be contained.”
Xi Chong’s expression turned extremely grim. He pushed out dozens of spatial cubes, colliding with the tornado.
They vanished silently. The chaotic spatial fragments and the illusory realms revealed after the spatial shattering were all swallowed by the tornado.
Xi Chong roared, swinging the white bone serpent spear, scattering the tornado. After the tornado dispersed, a spatial cube emitting white light hovered in mid-air, bobbing up and down.
He Li beckoned, and the spatial cube flashed, disappearing into the void. The surrounding shattered space gradually healed. “Xi Chong, you are also destined to die. Even if you control laws, it is the same. You are overestimating yourself. By stepping onto the battlefield, you must face death, annihilation of body and soul.”
As he spoke,
He Li glanced at Divine Lord Shen Tu with a contemptuous smile. That’s right, they were all destined to die. Annihilation of body and soul was a good way for them to die.
