"A real battle?"
Upon hearing Gu Jinlai’s words, the Aries Star Lord seed to fall into a kind of reminiscence, "Since I entered the creator’s domain, it has been a long ti since anyone has dared to ntion ’battle’ in front of ."
He looked at Gu Jinlai with a smile in his eyes, seemingly delighted by Gu Jinlai’s courage.
"The combat power of a creator cos from two aspects. One aspect is the protective item crafted for our bodies that mainly deals with the material world. I have none of these anymore, but besides these, what remains, is our most powerful aspect!"
The entity, once known a millennium ago in the Holy Land as the foremost creator, slightly moved its body.
"That is our spirit form after spiritualization! Anyone... when they destroy our material form, it doesn’t really signify the end of the battle, nor does it signify victory, it simply ans that death is imminent! At the mont of death of the body, as we no longer need to worry about bursting this frail vessel, we will ’fully’ descend! Killing every enemy we see!"
The Aries Star Lord slowly raised his hand; in the ocean of spirit, a vast amount of spiritual power erged and solidified into a shadow of a giant sword, floating behind him.
One!
That was not his limit.
Then, a second and a third...
Behind him, six giant swords made entirely of spiritual power appeared.
"Just like now."
He made a "forward" gesture with his raised right hand.
The giant swords broke through the sky.
The spiritual power contained in each giant sword was so strong that it seed to tear apart Gu Jinlai’s spiritual world, striking vehently against the Wall of Nihility ford by Gu Jinlai, with sharpness that could split heaven and earth.
"Boom!"
The Wall of Nihility shattered!
Although it blocked the first giant sword from the Aries Star Lord, the second sword closely followed, sweeping past the wall, then...
It smashed into a second Wall of Nihility.
The second Wall of Nihility imdiately crumbled.
The third giant sword followed through, breaking the wall and then crashing into the third Wall of Nihility.
Then the fourth, the fifth, the sixth...
Six giant swords, all stopped by six layers of successive Walls of Nihility.
What initially seed a powerful attack that could shake Gu Jinlai’s True Spirit with just one sword, suddenly beca ineffective.
"..."
The smile on the Aries Star Lord’s face suddenly stiffened.
However, as a creator, having lived for a century or two, he had seen all kinds of tumults.
"A little unexpected, I admit you have potential, but if you think that’s enough to stop my power, you are gravely mistaken. Today, I shall show you the formidable power possessed by a creator’s spirit form."
The Aries Star Lord suddenly raised both hands, and the ocean of spirit behind him boiled violently, with nurous beams of spiritual light erging, forming into a dozen giant swords.
This ti, it was no longer just six swords.
It was exactly twelve.
Doubled.
In response, Gu Jinlai didn’t attempt to strike first; he did only one thing.
Stack walls!
Stack walls!
Continuously stack walls!
Walls of Nihility, layer upon layer, ford a barrier defending his True Spirit, completely separating him from the Aries Star Lord.
"Buzz!"
The twelve giant swords vibrated.
Like ballistic missiles crossing the heavenly track, the sheer sharpness emanating from the blades was enough to mark the True Spirit of any Heavenly Monarch, even Great Sky Monarchs!
This sharpness directly caused a Wall of Nihility to collapse under the dispersed Sword Qi.
But...
As one Wall of Nihility fell, countless more were forming.
The domain composed by the Wall of Nihility, which shielded the True Spirit, felt like a chasm that could never be crossed. The radiant sword lights from the twelve swords entered and instantly collapsed.
Yet, none of this affected the will of the Aries Star Lord.
He couldn’t believe that with an advantage a hundred tis that of a Great Sky Lord, and the continuous supply from the Spirit Realm’s body...
Okay!
Due to the impedint of the Demon Realm, the power supply from the spirit form of the Spirit Realm was reduced to a fraction.
But, just with his own strength, he still held the upper hand!
All he needed was a bit more ti.
"Swoosh!"
With an indifferent expression, the Aries Star Lord stared at Gu Jinlai. One hand was held level, and a continuous Spiritual Tsunami surged forward.
With one hand forming a Sword technique, sword after sword shadow ramd forward, destroying one Wall of Nihility after another.
...
Gu Jinlai entered the Demon Realm and unreservedly unleashed the power of his True Spirit, which theoretically would attract nurous Demon Spirits imdiately.
But in reality...
As Gu Jinlai and the Aries Star Lord clashed, the overwhelming spiritual pressure was like Mount Tai pressing down, grinding all Demon Spirits within several tens of miles to dust.
Under the creator’s formidable spirit pressure, Demon Spirits within dozens of miles acted as if they were ice under high-energy radiation.
No matter if they were small, dium, large, or Catastrophic-level Demon Spirits, under this terrifying spiritual pressure, almost none would make any difference.
What was especially terrifying to countless Demon Spirits was that the real Spirit Realm of the Demon Realm was far less complex than the real world.
Or rather, the Demon Realm is a world sowhat like space, where the True Spirit Realm is relatively "silent."
In such an environnt, without complex spiritual forces continuously washing over them, creators can’t receive a continuous supply of power from the Spirit Realm, but they also don’t need to worry about losing themselves due to the influence of spiritual power.
Therefore, as the Aries Star Lord’s spirit form collided with the Demon Realm Rift, it intermittently projected spiritual power into the Demon Realm. Although it was still in the process of transmission, it already manifested a vast shadow stretching for a thousand kiloters in the void.
The unford pressure erging from the shadow seed to awaken the deep-rooted fears in all Demon Spirits.
Not to ntion those large and Catastrophic-level Demon Spirits with clear consciousness, even those small and dium-sized Demon Spirits whose consciousness was not yet fully developed acted like a flock of sheep eyed by a tiger, screaming in terror and fleeing in all directions.
By the ti Gu Jinlai entered the Demon Realm this ti, he stood still for quite a while, surprisingly experiencing a mont of "calm."
Of course, no one knew how long this state would last.
After all, the Demon Realm now was no longer the Demon Realm of a thousand years ago.
Without the creators periodically leading teams deep into it to hunt, nurous Demon Spirits were growing wildly and rapidly.
Not to ntion the Spirit Venerable, even the number of Demon Lords had increased significantly.
If one or two creators were to casually enter the Demon Realm like a thousand years ago, treating it as a hunting ground, their fate would be like a hunter entering a den of tigers.
The roles of hunter and hunted would quickly be reversed.
...
"Bang, bang, bang, bang!"
The ripples caused by the breach of the Wall of Nihility continuously echoed around Gu Jinlai’s True Spirit.
Sotis, giant sword apparitions could even penetrate the Wall of Nihility, striking Gu Jinlai’s True Spirit and causing cracks to appear on it.
But before those cracks could widen, Qingguang was imdiately injected, rapidly restoring the True Spirit to its original state.
The depletion caused by the release of Soul Secret Techniques was also quickly replenished.
By this step, it was actually a final consumption between spiritual entities.
Although the Aries Star Lord held an absolute advantage, with the force of one percent of his power equaling ten percent of Gu Jinlai’s,
Gu Jinlai’s Recovery was fast.
It was like the confrontation between modern infantry and ancient knights.
A single modern infantryman, with the advantage of firearms, could easily kill hundreds of knights, but when the number of knights standing in front of him reached tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands or millions, continuously surging forth, even hundreds of modern infantryn would struggle to achieve final victory.
The collisions between the Wall of Nihility and the spiritual giant swords continuously exploded around Gu Jinlai’s True Spirit.
A hundred tis, several hundred tis, a thousand tis, even several thousand tis...
Even the Aries Star Lord himself was sowhat unclear about how many attacks he had released or how many tis his Spiritual Tsunami had struck.
But the Wall of Nihility released by Gu Jinlai always stood like an insurmountable moat, staunchly blocking the Aries Star Lord’s power from the outside.
At this mont, the usual composure on the face of the Aries Star Lord as he looked down had vanished.
For the first ti, he carefully sized up Gu Jinlai again, "You are definitely not just a Heavenly Monarch! Not even a Great Sky Lord!"
This ti, the giant sword apparition he had condensed did not shoot out imdiately but instead gathered behind him.
"What exactly are you? Another creator?"
"Buzz, buzz!"
In response to him, ca another series of the Wall of Nihility surrounding him.
After a mont, Gu Jinlai, who released the Wall of Nihility, seed to sense sothing.
Looking at the Aries Star Lord, who had stopped launching attacks after condensing the giant sword apparition, and...
Unbeknownst to him, the retreated Spiritual Tsunami, he also stopped the action of releasing the Wall of Nihility.
"Not attacking anymore?"
Gu Jinlai looked at the Aries Star Lord.
His True Spirit, compared to before, had beco even more flawless, as if forged by fierce fire and hamred a thousand tis, filled with a crystal-clear essence.
Every collision of spiritual forces was actually a confrontation of ntal will.
Just as he had said before, what couldn’t defeat him would only make him stronger.
"A Heavenly Monarch couldn’t possibly possess such power."
The Aries Star Lord looked at Gu Jinlai, with the remaining less than twenty percent of his Spiritual Tide continually revolving, sotis transforming into swords, sotis flowing like water.
"Could it be that so creator is scheming against ?"
This creator’s expression rarely fell into contemplation, "Or perhaps, a new path has ford in these thousand years?"
"You have stopped attacking..."
Gu Jinlai stood firm at the center of the Wall of Nihility, without the slightest intention to respond to the Aries Star Lord’s words, "Now it’s my turn."
He simply snapped his fingers.
"Fire."
Burning Heart.
A blaze of splendid and brilliant flas instantly engulfed the spiritual world’s sky entirely, as if the entire world had been thoroughly ignited.
In the center of the flas, an ever-intensifying brilliance rapidly gathered, like a supre Divine Beast spreading its wings to soar, engulfing endless light and fierce flas, sweeping toward the Aries Star Lord.
"You seem very confident."
Within the flas, although the Aries Star Lord was solemn, he showed no fear.
Even...
He felt regret.
For Gu Jinlai, as well as for himself.
"The next ti I awaken, who knows when it will be."
He extended his hand, and an invisible wave of Spiritual fluctuations began dispersing from his hand, seemingly releasing sothing rapidly...
"In our final monts, we glimpsed the path of the Spirit Master, even grasping the power a Spirit Master should command, which is..."
"I know."
Gu Jinlai suddenly said, "You call that move ’Spirit Realm Descent.’
"?"
The Aries Star Lord’s expression froze.
"You wanted to refine into an incarnation that walks in the material world, to so extent, you succeeded."
Gu Jinlai slightly smiled, "What’s yours is mine, and what’s mine is still mine, like this move, Spirit Realm Descent..."
He pointed with an empty hand, and the dispersing spiritual energy from the Aries Star Lord, as if interrupted by sothing, was abruptly cut off.
"I can do it too."
