Just A Daoist Who Occasionally Kicks Ass-Chapter 590: The Golden-Armored Divine Being! A Hundred-Zhang Body! Get Down Here! Break the Shackles!
Minghe’s assessment was essentially correct. If places like this mysterious land—or ghost towns—had a “script,” then what Li Yanchu was doing now was tearing that script apart. Once the script was disrupted, certain things meant to be revealed to these cultivators could no longer appear as intended.
And so powerful external forces would descend, forcibly repairing the unstable elements. At this moment, the gigantic human face in the sky was precisely playing that role.
“So there really is someone manipulating all of this.”Li Yanchu’s voice was icy.
Clang.
He slashed out with his blade. Brilliant blade light shot straight toward the heavens, as if it were about to cleave the entire world in two. The enormous human face opened its mouth and spat out a beam of divine light, colliding head-on with the Jiaoslayer’s radiance.
Boom!
It was as if a blazing sun had risen. A burst of radiance instantly enveloped the entirety of Shituo City.
Within that light surged an immense, destructive power, so overwhelming that it crushed all thoughts of resistance.
Gasp.
The cultivators within Shituo City couldn’t help but suck in a sharp breath. This sight was utterly terrifying.
“With golden whip I scour the world, in golden armor I reveal divine might. Swiftly, in accordance with the command.”
Li Yanchu activated the Spirit Officer Summoning Talisman and manifested his primordial spirit manifestation.
A golden-armored divine being, six zhang tall, appeared. It wielded a golden mace and wore gleaming armor, and its muscles coiled and bulged as it radiated a murderous intent that soared sky-high. He had borrowed the divine authority of Spirit Officer Wang.
Within the void, strands of divine power continuously descended. The Dao of the gods was heavy, and only the brave and fiercely advancing could draw upon more of it.
“Get the hell down here.” Li Yanchu’s voice boomed like thunder.
He directly unleashed the Heaven-Earth Titan Form. A golden-armored divine being a hundred zhang tall appeared, so tall that the gigantic human face barely reached his calf. It instantly lost its overwhelming sense of grandeur.
The golden mace in Li Yanchu’s hand erupted with dazzling radiance as he brought the mace crashing down.
The enormous human face spat out another beam of divine light. But this time, it failed to block Li Yanchu’s attack.
Boom!
Heaven collapsed and earth cracked. The entire Shituo City shook violently; it was as if an earth dragon had turned over, or a falling star had smashed into the ground.
With a single strike, Li Yanchu shattered the gigantic human face, his expression icy cold. Yet the massive face condensed once more, as if immortal and indestructible.
Li Yanchu swung the golden mace and smashed down once again.
Boom!
The gigantic human face shattered yet again.
Li Yanchu’s expression remained indifferent as he brought the mace crashing down a second time. This time, before the divine light in the giant face’s mouth could even be released, Li Yanchu crushed its head to pieces.
In this state, the combat power of his primordial spirit manifestation was boundless, especially with Spirit Officer Wang’s divine power continuously descending from the radiant void. It made Li Yanchu feel as though he could take on ten enemies at once. He believed that even if this thing truly were an undying, indestructible existence, it would still be worn down as its vitality was erased, falling into dormancy or dissipating entirely.
Thus, he smashed down again with the mace, completely obliterating the newly formed gigantic human face.
Spirit Officer Wang was the foremost of the Five Hundred Spirit Officers of the Celestial Court, the great Daoist guardian deity. Even all great demons across the Three Realms must bow their heads to him.
Borrowing Spirit Officer Wang’s divine power filled Li Yanchu with surging battle intent.
After the giant face was smashed apart, this time it did not re-form. Sensing this, Li Yanchu looked up toward the heavens.
“This illusory world is ultimately of little interest. I will shatter you right now.”
The aura around Li Yanchu surged higher and higher, the golden divine light in his eyes growing ever more intense. His vast, torrential blood and qi made everyone in Shituo City feel an intense, scorching presence.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
The powerful beating of his heart resounded like war drums. Two streams of white vapor were drawn into his nostrils, then expelled again. His blood and qi had been strengthened to an extreme degree.
Rumble! Rumble!
The entire ground trembled without cease. The hundred-zhang-tall golden-armored divine being now fully mobilized its aura, shaking the entirety of Shituo City into unrest.
Minghe calmly looked up at the golden-armored god in the sky. The same Daoist Master Li she had laughed with, argued with, and teased during earlier moments... he actually possessed such world-shaking divine abilities.
She could hardly reconcile the immense, weighty golden-armored god manifesting divine authority with the Li Yanchu who casually slapped people around and acted so brazenly.
Yet Minghe also had her own judgment. After all, she was a professional cultivator, and her family’s heritage was exceptionally deep.
He... actually looks kind of cool... Minghe thought to herself.
If Li Yanchu knew what she was thinking right now, it would definitely affect his speed in drawing his blade.
But at this moment, his eyes were fixed only on the sky. He was determined to shatter the shackles.
Vast surges of blood and qi condensed behind him into a colossal Martial Dao manifestation, also a hundred zhang tall. It was his own image.
Both divine projections swung simultaneously, and a dazzling light erupted. The golden mace in Li Yanchu’s hand struck as if hitting a solid, immovable object.
Rumble! Rumble!
The earth shook and the mountains quaked, yet Li Yanchu’s heart leapt with joy. This strike had already broken through the barrier of this space.
It’s not the Space Dao... it must be some special item, or perhaps a magical artifact, Li Yanchu thought.
Earlier, when the shadow of the Golden-Winged Roc had appeared, a single feather had transformed into golden light, reviving Shituo City.
He had been sensing a tremendous aura throughout the city, but besides these demons, there had been no other trace.
Now it seemed clear: from the moment he entered Shituo City, he had already stepped into a setup. When one was within the setup, how could one sense the aura from outside?!
His target had never been the heavy horde of demons, it was the entire Shituo City itself.
“Break!” Li Yanchu shouted coldly, killing intent soaring into the heavens.
There was a strange power within Shituo City, which made one subconsciously believe that the city was a normal demon kingdom. In reality, Shituo City had long since fallen, it was nothing more than ruins. Yet within the city, a peculiar force caused visitors to instinctively ignore this fact.
Li Yanchu suspected that it was the handiwork of the golden feather. With numerous protective measures in his primordial spirit, he was only slightly affected by it.
At this moment, he poured his energy into the golden mace in his hand, slamming it down with full force. He was determined to shatter this false world.
Crack!
This time, it was as if a barrier within heaven and earth had been struck.
“Is this even possible?” Minghe blinked in surprise.
The cultivators within the city were equally stunned, their minds instantly clear.
A wave of fear swept over them; they had almost been unable to distinguish whether Shituo City was real or illusory.
They had originally entered the city in search of immortal opportunities. By now, they had almost forgotten that mission, caught in a contradiction between reality and illusion.
The golden-armored divine being was a hundred zhang tall, blood and qi surging like a rainbow.
Divine authority gathered in the golden mace as it slammed down once more.
Crack!
Li Yanchu did not pause, continuously swinging the golden mace.
Crack, crack, Crack!
It was as if countless images within a mirror had been shattered, and the bloody scenes of Shituo City gradually fell into fragments...
Yet in the next moment, whether dead humans or dead demons, all of them reappeared.
