Chapter 717 - 457: Breaking the Demon Lord’s Treasure (Part 2)
It was layers upon layers of faint halos surrounding the black sphere of light, seemingly like the complex refraction of light in the atmosphere, but Wang Zhifan’s terrifyingly heightened senses at this moment clearly told him that this was not the case; those halos actually represented the power of laws!
"Damn it! As expected, Space Law techniques were used! Making me circle around in high altitude endlessly!"
In an instant, it all became clear to Wang Zhifan. The reason he couldn’t reach the black sphere of light even when his speed soared to the limit was that his efforts were entirely in vain.
He thought he was getting closer to the target, but he was actually going in circles on a certain plane, unable to get any closer to the black sphere of light.
Moreover, it wasn’t due to his slow reaction; it was because the enemy was too cunning, playing such tricks at extreme altitudes where he couldn’t rely on any surroundings to notice the problem, as even the atmosphere around was extremely thin, completely empty of any reference points.
"I never expected that just a rare-level pill could provide such great assistance; from now on, I shouldn’t underestimate rare-level items."
Inwardly grateful, Wang Zhifan wasted no time implementing his targeted response.
Since he knew he was being restricted by Space Law, he had a specific method to break it; the answer was to use the Blank Winding Belt with Spatial Movement Ability!
He first moved his figure to the edge where a halo of laws appeared, then used the spatial movement ability of the Blank Belt to directly bypass this special obstacle. He repeated this process several times, crossing subsequent interference of space laws in turn, allowing him to smoothly pass through areas that couldn’t be cracked by ordinary means of movement.
The subsequent path became simple; he burst forth at maximum speed, rushing into the high altitude, visibly watching as the black sphere of light overhead came closer and closer until he suddenly stopped about a hundred meters away from it.
"My senses tell me that continuing to get closer would carry great risk, likely this is the second layer of defense inherent to this Demon Venerable’s magical artifact."
Using the powerful sense brought by consuming the battle pill, Wang Zhifan easily noticed the situation, but he couldn’t know the specific mode of this magical artifact’s defense, only concluding it was extremely dangerous.
Now it was a test of his response capabilities, whether to charge directly with the Immortal’s body or to use another safer approach.
But it’s important to note that time waits for no one at this moment; he had no time for detailed contemplation, as any further hesitation could mean that even if he ultimately destroyed the magical artifact, the True Spirit Race below would already be nearly defeated.
With his mind racing, Wang Zhifan made an extremely fast decision.
"Heaven and Earth Yin Yang Black Treasure Tower! Attack with me!"
He raised his hand, releasing his legendary treasure, the Black Tower, which quickly expanded to a height of ten meters. His figure flickered, entering it just like his Dao partner, the Moon-Annihilating Dragon Saber.
Then, under the control of the master inside, the Black Tower entered the strongest attack and defense mode, charging with unmatched bravery toward the black sphere of light a hundred meters away, unleashing all the strongest remote attacks such as the Black Tower Spiritual Light Cannon and Black Tower Shock Wave against this Demon Venerable artifact.
In an instant, the color of this extremely high sky changed again; a large amount of mysterious brilliance filled the entire surrounding space, making everything originally dark appear resplendent like an aurora.
Whether it was the legendary Black Tower controlled by Wang Zhifan or the black sphere of light serving as defense, an intensely fierce energy battle ensued, distorting the space with frightening spatial cracks.
"It’s possible! The Black Tower is truly worthy of being a legendary existence! It has nothing to fear from any Demon Venerable magical artifact!"
Leading this adventurous action, Wang Zhifan quickly saw the result of the battle within the Black Tower.
The actual situation proved his judgment wasn’t wrong; the legendary Black Tower had a high essence, ensuring both his and Dragon Girl’s safety while suppressing and destroying the black sphere of light that emitted terrifying destructive energy.
He watched the Black Tower pour out its fierce firepower for just two or three seconds, causing the vile black sphere to shatter and quickly lose its effect of obscuring the sky.
This was an extremely shocking scene, so much so that Dragon Girl, who was hiding inside the tower to avoid the influence of the Demon Venerable artifact, was wide-eyed with surprise.
For she was currently positioned right in the Master’s Floor of the Black Tower, able to observe the external intense spectacle together with Wang Zhifan.
"Fan... this tower is so powerful... it can even destroy a magical artifact made by the Demon Venerable..."
Dragon Girl was almost dumbfounded; she had initially planned to charge out in desperation, even at the cost of blowing up her True Spirit body to destroy the black sphere of light, but didn’t expect Wang Zhifan to handle it three moves and it’s done, completely shattering her impression of the Black Tower being only a training artifact.
Seeing her so surprised, Wang Zhifan naturally showed a look of pride while controlling the Black Tower to descend to the faraway ground below, answering:
"Of course! Xi, you know my Black Tower’s full name is Heaven and Earth Yin Yang Black Treasure Tower! Even in a realm full of top experts, it’s considered a prestigious peak magical artifact!"
Amidst a boast, Wang Zhifan controlled the Black Tower to rapidly plummet downward.
First encountering those Demon Venerables rushing into the high sky to stop him, but at this point, he no longer had the time to toy with these beings slowly, so he controlled the Black Tower to unleash the Spiritual Light Cannon aimed at them, almost in a blink, obliterating more than half of these dumbfounded Demon Venerables into pieces.
Clearing the path of clueless roadblocks, Wang Zhifan quickly put away the Black Tower and, together with Dragon Girl, swiftly approached the ground below.
Seeing as the Demon Venerable artifact was destroyed by him, the dark sky returned to brightness, and the battle situation over the Ancient Cyan Sea shifted once more.
The True Spirits, who had been weakened to the point of being pounded without resistance, regained their vitality; even if they were surrounded, injured all over, they could immediately counter the surrounding Demon Venerables and turn the situation around.
The ordinary Mieyue Clan cultivators, however, were not so robust. Without the strong vitality inherent to True Spirit bodies, they mainly had mere mortal bodies and suffered immensely during the recent desperate confrontation, almost being completely massacred.
The only good news was that before the great battle, Wang Zhifan applied the Fate Link on their elite squad, exploiting the shared damage trait of the Fate Link, allowing the elite troops to still have the strength to fight and gradually stabilize the collapsing battlefield.
"Xi, let’s help those ordinary cultivators who can barely hold on first, then go slaughter the remaining Demon Venerables!"
Taking in the whole situation with extreme speed, Wang Zhifan raised his hand, applying an almost imperceptible Fate Link to himself and the Moon-Annihilating Dragon Saber beside him, starting the final cleanup of the battlefield.
Now acting primarily in tandem with him, the Moon-Annihilating Dragon Saber transformed into a hundred-meter Cyan Dragon True Spirit without hesitation, carrying Wang Zhifan as they swept towards the battlefield between ordinary cultivators and demons, initiating a one-sided large scale slaughter.
Accompanied by large swathes of Cyan Dragon’s breath pouring down from the sky, and Wang Zhifan’s precise control of the source power of ice, the severely disadvantaged ordinary Mieyue Clan cultivators witnessed their enemies turning into ashes in droves, forcibly reversing the situation on the second battlefield.
After the two swiftly dealt with this area and turned to the battlefield with Demon Venerables and True Spirits, they found that the Demon Venerables had already begun retreating during the battle, clearly aware that with the destruction of their Demon Venerable artifact, they’d lost their hope of victory in this battle.
Seeing this, Wang Zhifan and the Moon-Annihilating Dragon Saber pursued them along with other True Spirit masters, slaughtering or severely injuring dozens of Demon Venerables all the way until the panicked retreating Demon Venerables collectively teleported away upon reaching a certain point, before returning to Moon Destruction Island together.
This marked the birth of yet another classic victory belonging to the Calamity Realm, with Wang Zhifan’s rank further elevated on the Demon Sealing List.
