Book 6: Chapter 108: Ten Thousand Arrows Firing Simultaneously
In outer s.p.a.ce, the sludge sea churned and roared. It swallowed the stars, planets, and asteroids wherever it went, turning them into more sludge to strengthen itself.
Sludge filled the heavens.
Gu Hai, Ensnaring Performance, and Longevity retreated continuously.
Before this sludge sea, all their attacks did nothing, quickly absorbed by the sludge sea.
“It’s completely useless. The sludge sea is growing larger. All our attacks are buried in the sludge sea, not causing any harm to the Six Paths Veritable Lord!” Ensnaring Performance said with an unsightly expression.
“How terrible of Purple Subtlety! How did he get eaten? His earth laws are so powerful. When the Six Paths Veritable Lord uses them, the sludge sea is a s.h.i.+eld that continuously gets stronger. It is an undefeatable s.h.i.+eld. How are we to fight it?” Longevity said with an unsightly expression.
“Continue!” Gu Hai executed the Ninth Cycle again and only made the sludge churn. Then, the boundless sludge consumed the force.
At the center of the sludge sea, the Six Paths Veritable Lord sneered, “Trying to run? It’s too late. Stay there!”
Suddenly, the boundless sludge formed a huge dragon that charged at the group from the sludge sea.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The group instantly destroyed the sludge dragon. However, more came. There was no killing them all.
The group could only continuously retreat.
“You can’t escape!” the Six Paths Veritable Lord sneered.
Surging sludge rushed out from both sides of the group, instantly arriving in front. Now, the sludge surrounded the three.
There was nowhere to flee at this moment.
“What should we do?” Ensnaring Performance’s expression changed dramatically.
“There are stars in the surroundings of this place. It’s about sufficient!” Gu Hai suddenly narrowed his eyes.
“What’s sufficient?” Longevity felt slightly startled.
“Protect yourselves!” Gu Hai said seriously.
As Gu Hai spoke, he reached towards his chest.
Phis.h.!.+
Gu Hai drew a fourth saber from his body, the Life Ender Saber.
When the Life Ender Saber appeared, Ensnaring Performance and Longevity s.h.i.+vered. They felt reverence towards this bone saber for some reason.
“What is this saber?” Ensnaring Performance said in shock.
Gu Hai ignored the two. He stepped forward and charged at the Six Paths Veritable Lord.
Whoos.h.!.+
Gu Hai’s unexpected charge slightly startled the Six Paths Veritable Lord. The three have no means of resisting before me. Is this Gu Hai crazy, still thinking of fighting me?
What a joke!
The Six Paths Veritable Lord’s eyes turned cold as he extended his hand and waved.
Boom!
The surging sludge sea charged at Gu Hai to crush him to death at the periphery.
“Life Killer Saber!” Gu Hai shouted and swung the Life Killer Saber.
Boom!
The Life Killer Saber gave off a dazzling crimson light, dyeing the entire world crimson. Millions of crimson evil demons charged at the Six Paths Veritable Lord, appearing out of nowhere.
This was the effect the Life Killer Saber gained from ma.s.sacring millions, creating an illusion from the ma.s.sacre. Any other person might have gone mad from the crimson illusion’s boundless ma.s.sacre conception.
However, the Six Paths Veritable Lord was distracted only momentarily before returning to his senses.
Gu Hai pa.s.sed the periphery of the sludge sea during this moment of distraction as he charged at the Six Paths Veritable Lord.
“Haha! You overestimate yourself!” the Six Paths Veritable Lord snorted coldly.
Right now, Gu Hai’s mortal soul monopolized his body, giving him astonis.h.i.+ng speed. He crossed millions of kilometers in an instant. Even with such speed, he still had not reached the Six Paths Veritable Lord before the Six Paths Veritable Lord regained his senses. The Six Paths Veritable Lord recovered from the illusion too quickly.
The Six Paths Veritable Lord waved.
Boom!
The nearby sludge immediately soared up to swallow Gu Hai.
However, Gu Hai was already near the Six Paths Veritable Lord. He revealed a cold smile. “This is already sufficient.”
“Life Ender Saber!” Gu Hai shouted.
Then, he stabbed the Life Ender Saber into the sludge.
Boom!
The sludge rus.h.i.+ng toward Gu Hai suddenly stilled. This startled the Six Paths Veritable Lord. Why can’t I control the sludge anymore?
Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!
The sludge changed color. Starting from where the Life Ender Saber stabbed it, the black sludge turned white and gave off a sheen that resembled bones.
“The sludge turned into bones?” Longevity exclaimed.
“Bones? Trans.m.u.tation? How can that be? Does that bone saber possess the power of laws too?” Ensnaring Performance exclaimed.
Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!
All the sludge around the Six Paths Veritable Lord turned into bones in the blink of an eye. Bone mountains rose, shooting at him.
Boom!
The Six Paths Veritable Lord shattered the countless bone spikes shooting at him with a palm strike. Then, he looked at the surroundings in shock.
Ninety percent of the sludge sea was still sludge, mostly at the periphery. Only the center portion had transformed into bones.
However, the Six Paths Veritable Lord could not control the bones.
“Hah! Hahaha! The Life Ender Saber? Excellent Life Ender Saber! Earth laws, melt!” the Six Paths Veritable Lord yelled.
Buzz!
The Six Paths Veritable Lord released boundless earth-attributed energy from his body, pouring it into the surrounding bone sea. The energy melted some of the surrounding bones into sludge.
Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!
However, the Life Ender Saber turned that sludge back into bones.
Trans.m.u.tation. This was the power of laws.
The Life Ender Saber and the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s earth laws clashed, competing with laws.
“Life Executioner Saber!” Just at this moment, Gu Hai swung down the Life Executioner Saber.
When Gu Hai swung his saber, he sent out a humongous manifested saber. The Six Paths Veritable Lord showed no fear. Instead, the Six Paths Veritable Lord smiled coldly while throwing a palm strike. “How laughable! Another Ninth Cycle? What use is it?”
However, the Six Paths Veritable Lord narrowed his eyes the next moment. The Ninth Cycle was not directed at him but at the ma.s.sive bone sea.
Boom!
When Gu Hai swung his saber, the bone sea shattered and turned to powder. The attack even ripped open a giant black hole in s.p.a.ce.
Naturally, the Six Paths Veritable Lord was fine because of his strong body.
However, the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s surroundings were now empty, devoid of sludge or bones. While there was still boundless sludge in the distance, none remained around him.
“You destroyed my sludge sea?” The Six Paths Veritable Lord glared and waved.
The distant sludge immediately poured toward the Six Paths Veritable Lord.
“You can’t make it in time! You no longer have your sludge s.h.i.+eld!” Gu Hai sneered.
“Life Trapper Saber!” Gu Hai shouted again.
Buzz!
At this moment, a cl.u.s.ter of stars in the distance turned bright.
Whoos.h.!.+
A Disintegration Beam shot at the Six Paths Veritable Lord.
“Hahaha! The Disintegration Beam is useless against me. Have you forgotten?” the Six Paths Veritable Lord snorted coldly and punched.
Boom!
That Disintegration Beam suddenly shattered.
“Is that so?” Gu Hai showed a faint sneer.
Ten million stars in the surroundings brightened before quickly getting destroyed.
Every one thousand stars destroyed sent out one Disintegration Beam. Ten million stars meant ten thousand Disintegration Beams, perhaps even more.
If the earlier Disintegration Beam was one arrow, this was like ten thousand arrows firing simultaneously. There was only one target: the uns.h.i.+elded Six Paths Veritable Lord.
“Gu Hai, you laid this trap beforehand?” The Six Paths Veritable Lord’s expression changed.
However, everything happened too quickly.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of Disintegration Beams immediately reduced the Six Paths Veritable Lord to a wretched state. With ten thousand arrows firing simultaneously, the intensity of the attack was significantly stronger than before.
With the piercing light, the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s surroundings became like a sun, radiating light in all directions.
Below, the Supreme Wa and Hetu goggled.
“That is the Disintegration Beam? Just one beam could destroy Heavenly Access’s Immortal Murderer Sword, Immortal Exterminator Sword, and Immortal Voider Sword. Now, there are ten thousand of them? This…” Hetu showed a shocked expression.
They had known that Gu Hai had laid a trap in outer s.p.a.ce. However, they had not expected it to be so terrifying.
“Lady Supreme Wa, this husband of yours might not have cultivated for a long time, but he has been in the limelight all the while. No one could defeat him!” Murong Yan smiled at the Supreme Wa.
The Supreme Wa frowned slightly. Although she still resisted the matter of her future husband, it now seemed that such a husband might be pretty good.
Boom!
The ten thousand shots blinded everyone. They only recovered after a while.
Gu Hai stood in the distance, watching the Six Paths Veritable Lord.
Indeed, one Disintegration Beam cannot harm the Six Paths Veritable Lord. What about ten thousand?
After the ten thousand Disintegration Beams ended, the black hole remained. This exposed the Six Paths Veritable Lord. He was still alive; however, he was as good as dead. His entire body had deformed, looking like a pile of melted flesh sticking to his bones.
“Excellent! Excellent! Excellent! Disintegration Beam? The Life Killer Saber? The Life Ender Saber? The Life Executioner Saber? The Life Trapper Saber? Hahahaha! Gu Hai, it looks like you still failed to kill me. How miserable! You injured me to such an extent, putting me in such a pathetic state. It is my turn now. I will grind your bones down to dust!” the Six Paths Veritable Lord snarled in hatred.
“If you are not dead, then we can go again!” Gu Hai said coldly.
“What?” The Six Paths Veritable Lord’s expression changed.
Gu Hai extended his hand and waved the Life Trapper Saber. Then, another ten million stars flashed and quickly crumbled.
Boom!
Another ten thousand Disintegration Beams fired. With the Life Trapper Saber’s precise control, fleeing was useless for the Six Paths Veritable Lord.
Boom!
The sky turned even brighter than the sun. The resplendence of ten thousand Disintegration Beams made everyone’s heart tremble.
“The Go Dao ritual array is truly incredible. Without the sludge sea s.h.i.+eld, he can only resist with his physical body.” The distant Longevity’s expression turned stiff.
Ensnaring Performance nodded in horror too.
Rumble…!
The light faded, revealing the large black hole. After the second barrage of ten thousand Disintegration Beams, the Six Paths Veritable Lord was now a pile of mangled flesh. He lay in a slump, unable to resist.
“Kill him!” Hetu cried out from the island below as his heart trembled.
“Even the strong Six Paths Veritable Lord has moments when he fails?” The Supreme Wa’s eyes widened in horror.
“No wonder my husband is so cautious about Mister Gu. The mortal deity body was dealt with just like that?” Murong Yan marveled.
The silent Future Buddha suddenly frowned. His figure flashed as he rushed to outer s.p.a.ce.
Gu Hai did not launch a third wave of ten thousand Disintegration Beams. Instead, he went over to the slumped Six Paths Veritable Lord.
“Gu Hai! Haha! Hahaha!” The Six Paths Veritable Lord did not believe that he could be in such a sorry state.
Phis.h.!.+
Gu Hai stabbed the Life Executioner Saber into the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s right arm.
Phis.h.!.+
He stabbed the Life Killer Saber into the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s left arm.
Phis.h.!.+ Phis.h.!.+
He stabbed the Life Trapper Saber into the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s left leg.
He stabbed the Life Ender Saber into the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s right leg.
Gu Hai pinned the Six Paths Veritable Lord in place with four sabers.
