Chapter 370: Decisive Battle Day
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Demonic Spirit Lake was a mysterious and terrifying restricted region located in the depths of the desolate lands. After all these years, few creatures from other races dared to approach it. Otherwise, they would only be seeking their own destruction.
Pure radiance flickered. A magical artifact tore through time and space, bringing a youth with it. They descended into the mountain region, and he walked forward.
This place was extremely quiet, and not many giant beasts were around. In front of Shi Yi were two enormous mountains that towered like gates. There was an enormous net between the two mountains that was silvery white and sparkling.
Spiderweb Sacred Gate!
This was the Demonic Spirit Lake’s gate. It was an enormous divine spider web that was rumored to be able to cover the heavens and the blue sea. It could trap anything.
It was clear that this wasn’t Shi Yi’s first time here. As soon as he approached, a demonic spider appeared. Without any words, it enthusiastically guided him inside.
There was an enormous lake where spiritual essence surged. This was the scene behind the gate.
The great lake was silvery white, and spiritual essence pervaded the air. A few spiders crawled on the surface of the lake, shining brilliantly as they absorbed the divine essence.
This was precisely the Demonic Spirit Lake. The entire lake was formed from spiritual essence and contained endless essence. Cultivating here could increase one’s speed by a large amount.
On the shore, there were a few ruined walls. All of them were collapsed palaces. One could vaguely see the glory of the ancient era.
Even though the palaces were in tatters, they didn’t lack life force. There was a large web on every broken wall, and a terrifying spider was lying there. Blood energy surged.
It was rumored that countless years ago, deities used to reside here. In the end, the temple collapsed, becoming a ruin, and the gods and devils left.
Of course, this place wasn’t completely ruined. In the depths, there were more than ten heavenly palaces. They were majestic, boundless, and releasing hazy radiance.
This was especially true for one of them. It was suspended high up in the sky, never falling. It was rumored to have existed since the archaic era when gods and devils fought for supremacy. No matter how much time passed, it never descended.
This was the central heavenly palace of the Demonic Spirit Lake, as well as the most important place. Outsiders weren’t allowed to take half a step inside, or else they would be killed without exception. It was to the extent that even if the pure-blooded demonic spider wanted to get close, it had to report back, or else there would be a fatal disaster. This was a forbidden place.
A large golden spider appeared from the central heavenly palace. It produced a resplendent great path that led straight to Shi Yi’s feet, allowing him to come up. This place was dignified and divine.
Meteorites floated around the palace one after another. Right now, the sky was already dark. They began to shine as if they were surrounded by the stars of the heavens. There were great symbols flickering about.
Above the central heavenly palace, there was a net that was almost transparent. If one wasn’t a powerful cultivator, they wouldn’t be able to see it at all. It was fine like hair as if it was constructed from divine chains of order as it surrounded the enormous palace.
“Yi’er, after this battle, I’ll celebrate for you. You’ll be number one among your peers!” The large golden spider laughed, extremely cheerful.
“Thank you for your praise, Martial Uncle!” Shi Yi paid his respects.
If there were other people here, they would definitely be shocked. The golden spider’s origins were astonishing, and it had lived for an extremely long time. Now, it had become one of Shi Yi’s martial uncles.
“I am looking forward to the day when you become the lord of the wasteland region and rule over the world. Your aura will devour mountains and rivers,” said the large golden spider. Then, it turned around and looked toward the end of the Demonic Spirit Lake. “Pass down my orders. Send invitations to the archaic divine mountains. Two days later, I’ll hold a banquet to celebrate Yi’er for obtaining the top honor under the heavens.”
“Martial Uncle, it’s still too early. We can celebrate after the battle ends,” said Shi Yi.
“Some places are more remote, so it’s better if we send out the invitations first and let them go on their way.” The large golden spider turned around and looked at Shi Yi. “Yi’er, will anything unexpected happen to you in this battle? You can definitely kill him.”
“No one can say for sure what happened before. I know I am unrivaled. I have that type of conviction, but I shouldn’t be careless,” Shi Yi calmly said.
Soon after, heated discussions broke out everywhere because the Demonic Spirit Lake really did send out a few invitations one after another. They were all sent to the most remote Archaic Divine Mountains, inviting supreme experts to a banquet.
That was really confidence. Many people were speechless after hearing this.
“What does Shi Hao have to fight with? His most powerful flesh is only on par with the dual-pupil individual. What else can he have?” Someone spoke up for Shi Yi.
These people gave examples one after another, speaking with certainty, believing that the Golden Body Liquid made Shi Yi truly perfect. From then on, he no longer had any weakness.
Comparatively speaking, the physical body was Shi Yi’s weakness, but now, it could contend against Shi Hao’s physical body. If they fought in other areas, Shi Yi would undoubtedly have the advantage.
“The dual-pupils can open up heaven and earth, create all living things. That type of divine might is unimaginable. What does Shi Hao have to defend against it?”
“This is especially the case with the supreme being bone. The difference between the two is like the difference between heaven and earth. One lost the true primordial bone, and the other underwent a rebirth and sublimation. From then on, Shi Yi’s body became perfect.”
This great confrontation hadn’t even begun yet, yet the outside world already began to discuss fervently. Then, an intense debate erupted. Everyone was discussing who would win.
Without a doubt, Shi Yi had an innate advantage. This was an undeniable fact. What he had, Shi Hao didn’t have, but what Shi Hao didn’t have, he had.
Finally, the day of the decisive battle arrived!
The real world seemed to have immediately become quiet. The various manors, great sects, as well as several great ancient countries clamored for several days before becoming completely quiet.
Those discussions all disappeared. It was as if everyone disappeared from the face of the earth.
It was because everyone entered the Void God Realm!
That day, the Void God Realm was overcrowded with people. It was unprecedented, and all of the passageways were packed. Groups of heroes arrived one after another, appearing in the pure land.
“That’s the ancient family Tuoba Clan’s retired old clan chief. He actually appeared as well.”
“That’s nothing. Look over there, Western Tomb Beast Mountain’s true owner has also arrived. It’s such an enormous old White Tiger!”
“Your eyes aren’t even wide enough. These are nothing. Quite a few pure-blooded creatures are coming, and some of the supreme sect masters are even going to personally descend.”
…
As far as the eye could see, there was a black mass of people moving about. There were all types of creatures, hundreds and thousands of races appearing at the same time. This was a grand occasion rarely seen in many years.
Everyone waited expectantly. Today’s event was destined to shake the entire wasteland region. This battle would be recorded in the annals of history. Regardless of the result, those two were the most resplendent focal points today.
“He’s here. The dual-pupiled individual has appeared!” Everyone cried out. They couldn’t help but open up a path for him.
Shi Yi was tall and slender, but he was extremely robust. He walked like a tiger, and his thick black hair fluttered about. His dual-pupils were misty as if primal chaos pervaded the air.
He walked over like a heavenly deity descended into the lower realms. There was a type of domineering aura. Even though he was just a youth, he made many older generation figures tremble with fear.
He was extremely dangerous!
This was the keenest feeling of a few experts, especially when they saw those eyes. Everyone’s hearts trembled as if they saw the destruction of the sun, moon, and stars.
At his side was a large golden spider, which accompanied him all the way here. Apart from this, there was a group of humanoid creatures, all of them releasing terrifying auras.
The Demonic Spirit Lake’s powerful people arrived. They transformed into human forms!
Not far out, there was an old woman who supported herself with a walking stick. She glanced over.
“Heaven Mending Sect’s Grandma Xihua. No wonder the Demonic Spirit Lake wasn’t too worried even when the wasteland region was in chaos. It seems like Shi Yi might have made some connections.”
Someone said softly. Those who understood the inside story all had grave expressions.
Shi Yi had arrived, and he was the main character. They were just waiting for Shi Hao to carry out a great decisive battle.
“So many people came. Sect masters and big shots from all forces have arrived. This really is a rare sight!”
Everyone knew that this was a divine-level arena battle. The effects of this battle would be far-reaching!
In the distance, roars shook the heavens. Golden light shone resplendently, and more than ten Nine-Headed Lions appeared. They stood in one direction, paying close attention to the battlefield.
Five-colored divine light streaked across the sky. Several enormous peacocks spread their wings and soared into the sky, circling above and flowing with holy multicolored splendor.
On the other side, the White Jade Dragon Elephant released a long cry. They carried a few ascetic cultivators who oversaw the place and released precious splendor.
When they looked into the distance, legendary beasts like Ya Zi, Pi Xiu, and Suan Ni appeared. All of them were enormous like mountains, and their auras were terrifying. When their eyes opened and closed, brilliant light shot out in all directions. It was intimidating.
This wasn’t all. As time went on, even more terrifying creatures appeared. War chariots rumbled one after another, crushing through the heavens before stopping nearby
They were all pulled by giant beasts and strange birds with divine servants accompanying them. Brilliant light shone endlessly and aura overflowed into the heavens.
The Archaic Divine Mountains’ supreme experts appeared. They came in war chariots one after another, and the terrifying pressure made everyone tremble.
At this moment, one could see that there were creatures everywhere. No one could count their exact number.
These pure-blooded creatures appeared, and they were all big shots. It truly made the outstanding heroes tremble with fear. They were all extremely scared. This scene was just incredible.
Flames flickered about. A blazing chariot appeared, releasing heaven overflowing might. Vermilion Bird divine flames curled about it. A middle-aged man sat there, and at his side was a red-clothed young lady.
“The Fire Emperor brought a princess over!”
As soon as he finished speaking, rumbling sounds rang out from the other side. Golden divine flames wrapped around a stone carriage as it entered the skies. The Stone Emperor arrived, personally descending to witness this battle.
Then, ancient trees towered into the heavens. The Wood Clan’s emperors also arrived. They weren’t humans. As they walked, ancient trees covered the sky and the sun.
Then, the Ocean Clan’s people also appeared. They held golden tridents in their hands, and as they stepped on the hazy waves, it was as if they towered above the sea.
“Well… it really is lively. This battle is something to look forward to.” The witch appeared. She was so beautiful that not a single flaw could be found. It was as if she was carved from fine jade. She was tall and slender, and her appearance could topple cities.
Since she came, there was no doubt that fairy Yue Chan would appear. They were natural opponents, always opposing each other with equal harshness.
With things already like this, everyone was waiting. Where was Shi Hao? He was the other main character, yet he still hadn’t shown up.
As time went on, everyone became restless. Waves of discussions went around. Could it be that he was scared of fighting and didn’t dare to appear?
Steps descended from the sky, and the radiance was resplendent. The domain envoy appeared, hazy and indistinct. His voice was cold as he said, “The other person hasn’t come yet. Does he not want to fight a decisive battle?”
It was clear that he was extremely unhappy, and his tone was full of discontent.
Everyone was speechless. Even the domain envoy had appeared, yet that fellow was still nowhere to be seen. What was he waiting for? Was he really going to back out?!
Boom!
Right at this time, an explosion erupted behind the domain envoy. A resplendent passageway exploded, releasing divine and auspicious multicolored light.
No one saw that at this moment, the domain envoy went rigid. A branch struck his buttocks like a tentacle, telling him to get out of the way!
Then, the resplendent light receded a bit, and a youth with large clear eyes walked out from the brilliant passage. Everyone was stunned, and they were a bit dumbstruck.
