The Lord of Light was in a precarious situation, with no way out.
He likely never expected it himself.
Boom.
The next moment, the Lord of Light made his move.
His world-shattering divine form extended a palm, covering the Rainbow Bridge.
"Heh heh."
The Dao Master of Yin and Yang chuckled with delight.
Boom.
Yin and Yang bloomed.
The two long rivers transformed into two lances, held by the girl. "Let me see how much of your injury has recovered?"
"Kill."
The Yin-Yang lances stirred the chaos.
The entire Tenth Land seemed to tremble.
Supreme divine might.
With a 'boom,' the palm radiating from the Lord of Light, reaching out, shattered directly.
"Suppress."
The sound resonated through the heavens.
The instant the Lord of Light's voice fell, peerless divine light erupted.
A palm, pure white like jade, entwined with the sounds of the Great Dao, as if countless believers were kneeling before it.
The Hand of God.
Boom.
This palm was overwhelmingly powerful.
The Dao Master of Yin and Yang failed to block it, sent flying backward.
"Myriad Things Born."
However, with the girl's fierce cry.
Within the Yin and Yang, a great world emerged.
This was a world of pure Yin and Yang, with countless beings emerging from it.
The next moment...
Boom.
The Great Yin-Yang World collided with the Hand of God.
With a 'bang,' the Hand of God shattered.
"Hahaha."
Ping Xi's laughter shook the heavens and earth. "Not bad, again."
Within that small figure, a volcano seemed to gestate.
As the twin lances moved, the Yin and Yang energies directly infiltrated the spirit's divine form.
Bang, bang, bang.
The divine form vibrated incessantly, showing signs of collapse.
"Hmph."
The Lord of Light would naturally not allow his divine form to collapse.
His current actions were already strained, intended to establish his status as a Ninth-Tier being.
It must not fall.
The divine form raised its hands, this time both hands.
With both hands, he held the sun and moon aloft.
Boom.
The sun and moon rotated, as if bringing about annihilation.
Ninth-Tier divine might, fully unleashed.
Rumble.
The sun and moon, crushing down, once again defeated the Dao Master of Yin and Yang.
The battle on the Eastern front had not yet concluded, but the two overlords had already begun to duel.
...
East.
"Hoo."
Chen Fan took a deep breath.
He gazed, entranced, at the battle between the two top-tier powerhouses.
It was intense.
Every move carried world-ending divine might.
This was true strength.
The Sword Master's voice echoed in his ears, "When will we be able to reach this level?"
They were truly too strong.
Just watching from afar gave one a profound sense of powerlessness.
There was no way.
Beings of this caliber were not something they could contend with.
"Soon."
Chen Fan's tone was remarkably calm.
Even though his heart was stirred, he maintained his composure and said sternly, "One day, this world will know my name, Chen Fan."
An eternal, unchanging renown.
Boom.
The Demon Lord began to flee.
Taking advantage of everyone's diverted attention, the Demon Lord directly abandoned his subordinates and chose to escape alone.
At this moment, he could no longer concern himself with others.
Regardless, the power of the Great Dao Universe had already been siphoned off by him. Even if the world were to be shattered, the losses had been minimized.
"Kill."
The Dragon King, carrying the Demon Lord's figure, pursued.
Hiss.
The Chaos Demonic Butterfly also pursued.
With the Lord of Light occupied, she could not come here in vain.
"Kill."
A host of Chaos Beasts, awakened from their shock, began their slaughter.
Chaos Beasts kill, and humans kill Chaos Beasts.
There was no difference.
He who kills, shall be killed.
The battle subsided at an extremely rapid pace, only the two overlords at the apex of the sky continued their struggle, their animosity seemingly ignited.
Especially the Dao Master of Yin and Yang, the entire world was filled with the Dao of Yin and Yang.
With soaring battle intent, she continued to attack.
The Lord of Light's divine form held on.
"Split."
Suddenly, a Blade of Light appeared in the Lord of Light's hand.
A single saber strike, shattering the heavens, was aimed at the Dao Master of Yin and Yang.
This saber strike was enough to repel Ping Xi.
"Yin and Yang, reverse."
But Ping Xi seemed to not see the attack.
The flowing Yin-Yang river, instantly surged with torrents, and with a 'boom,' it struck the Lord of Light's divine form.
And she herself was struck by the Lord of Light's saber.
Boom.
The saber fell.
The Dao Master of Yin and Yang stood proudly between heaven and earth, her feet treading on Yin and Yang.
Conversely, on the other side, the Lord of Light's divine form was shattered by the power of reversed Yin and Yang.
"You..."
The Lord of Light was stunned.
What are you doing?
You would rather take my saber strike, even at the cost of injury, to shatter my divine form. Is it worth it?
Boom.
The Lord of Light's divine form completely collapsed.
The Dao Master of Yin and Yang's voice rang out at this moment, "Ninth-Tier, nothing more."
The Lord of Light: "???"
He understood.
Ping Xi, to save face, was willing to be injured.
Throughout the Great Light Domain, several voices seemed to emerge.
"Is the Lord of Light truly Ninth-Tier?"
"He couldn't even defeat an Eighth-Tier, he seems... very weak..."
"Just so-so, then..."
"..."
The voices were faint and intermittent.
The Lord of Light understood the Dao Master of Yin and Yang's intention, and then his consciousness fragmented... His last thought was, it seems... a loss.
He looked at the Dao Master of Yin and Yang, saying nothing.
"Hmph."
The Dao Master of Yin and Yang sneered, looking at the shattered divine form.
So what?
I'm injured, but I won't say it. What can you do to me?
At least, on the surface, it is you, the Lord of Light, who has lost.
"Just so," the Dao Master of Yin and Yang said softly.
As the sound faded, the Yin-Yang Bridge appeared beneath her feet, and the small figure walked back south, step by step.
That voice, though faint, possessed an supreme power that pressed down on all heavens.
The resonant voice instantly echoed across the southern land, "Welcome, Dao Master..."
The voices were like thunder, filled with boundless fervor.
They were too excited.
Their Dao Master had confronted a Ninth-Tier being without being at a disadvantage, and ultimately shattered the Ninth-Tier divine form.
"Disperse."
Ping Xi waved her hand, her figure returning to the Emperor's Palace.
As soon as she entered the room, Ping Xi's expression changed drastically.
"Wow."
A mouthful of blood spewed from her mouth.
The scorching power of light burned her intensely.
Even the power of Yin and Yang struggled to suppress it.
This was the power of a Ninth-Tier.
"Little Eight, Little Nine." The Dao Master of Yin and Yang called out pitifully.
From the flowing Yin-Yang river in the Dao Palace, two small children, a boy and a girl, emerged, looking at the Dao Master of Yin and Yang with heartache. "Sister."
"Hiss."
Ping Xi gasped in pain, continuously sucking in cold air. "Quick, help me."
"Oh..."
The Spirits of Yin and Yang quickly approached.
A large amount of Yin and Yang energy was mobilized, beginning to weaken the scorching power of light.
It took a full half an hour before that power of light was finally extinguished.
"Hoo."
Ping Xi relaxed.
The moment the power of light was extinguished, her injuries healed.
Her expression became slightly more solemn. "It's almost healed."
She could feel it.
The Lord of Light's injury was about to heal.
Once fully recovered, the Lord of Light, emerging from his seclusion, would sweep through the Tenth Land.
It was said in the Tenth Land that the Dao Master of Yin and Yang could resist the Lord of Light, but only resist. In the end... she was still no match for him.
Even if she fought with all her might, the outcome would not change.
