Chapter 1297: Eight eighty-nine pioneer sky and earth_2
At the same time, the only treasure between Heaven and Earth that could restrain the Heavenly Star Array, the Heavenly Star Banner, he had not brought with him but had given it to his subordinate.
Thus, when facing the upgraded version of Jiang Chen’s Heavenly Star Array, he was completely helpless and trapped in a passive situation.
These two trump cards, no matter which one Kunpeng had on him, could have easily countered Jiang Chen. If he had brought both, Jiang Chen wouldn’t dare to fight him alone but would call First Emperor to join him.
Kunpeng, however, hadn’t used either of these trump cards that could allow him to counter a formidable enemy—If not overconfident, then what? If Kunpeng were to die today, it would be due to his carelessness!
Forgetting war will lead to danger!
This phrase indeed was not just an idle talk.
Kunpeng had hidden in the North Sea for millions of years, seemingly cultivating in obscurity, and had made significant achievements.
Yet, it was also because he hadn’t battled anyone for years that he had become complacent, losing the vigilance of the Great Ancient era, and thus he found himself in such a passive situation.
Kunpeng practiced the path of Divine Abilities, the essence of which lay in rising through battle.
Not fighting with anyone for millions of years didn’t affect other Great Divine Transcendents much, but for Kunpeng, it was fatal. A person who grew through battle had forgotten how to fight—how much of his skill could remain?
"Kill!"
Jiang Chen grasped the Dutian Shenfan, gently shook it, and transformed it into a Chaos-colored great axe.
At the same time, the unobtrusive Taoist Mirror emerged and also transformed into an axe, merging with the one formed from the Dutian Shenfan.
This axe appeared in Chaos color; on one side, it manifested the supreme scene of breaking through Chaos and pioneering Heaven and Earth, and on the other side, it showed the apocalyptic scene of Heaven and Earth shattering, everything returning to Chaos. Moreover, the handle bore the mysterious Dragon and Snake imprint, resembling the patterns of Tao.
This axe was indeed the Open Sky Divine Axe!
If it were just the Dutian Shenfan, then the transformed Open Sky Divine Axe wouldn’t possess much power, but with the addition of the Taoist Mirror, it was a whole different story.
The Taoist Mirror was originally a fragment of the Open Sky Divine Axe, now very close to an Innate Treasure; its fusion with the Dutian Shenfan immediately caused a transformation, turning it into the Pangu Axe, possessing the capabilities of the genuine item, though its rank had dropped to that of an Innate Treasure.
Yet even so, for dealing with Kunpeng who had not yet become a saint, it was enough.
"Open Sky Divine Axe!"
"How could this be, this is the Pangu inheritance that even the Twelve Ancestral Witches and Sanqing did not master. You, as a member of the Human Race, how could you possess such a supreme inheritance?"
The aura of the Open Sky Divine Axe was too powerful. The moment it appeared, Kunpeng felt a mortal danger.
That was the Open Sky Divine Axe, the mightiest treasure between Heaven and Earth, capable of destroying Chaos, opening Heaven and Earth. It could also destroy Heaven and Earth, causing all things to return to Chaos; it was the embodiment of destruction, corresponding to the ruthless side of the Great Dao.
Just looking at the Open Sky Divine Axe gave Kunpeng the illusion that he had already been cleaved into two, so sharp was its edge.
Not only that, but Kunpeng also felt that, with the appearance of the Open Sky Divine Axe, his once brilliantly bright future was swiftly dimming, all possibilities being cut off by a startlingly earth-shattering flash of the axe, severing all his lifelines.
"Damn it!"
"Who are you, exactly?"
"You can’t possibly be just an ordinary member of the Human Race!"
At this moment, Kunpeng couldn’t believe that Jiang Chen was of the Human Race.
He had a bold idea, suspecting that some Chaos Demigod had somehow deceived the Heavenly Dao, using Jiang Chen’s body to resurrect and attempt to seize the power of the Prehistoric World.
"No matter who you are, you are doomed today. The power of the North Sea, the power of the Ruined Land, all are bestowed upon me, Northern Netherworld Devour, devour me!"
Kunpeng knew that Jiang Chen was going for a decisive blow; if he couldn’t withstand the edge of the Open Sky Divine Axe, he would undoubtedly die today.
Thus, he hesitated no longer and activated his long-prepared trump cards, truly exerting his full strength for the first time. He revealed all his cards, more serious than even during the battles on the Demons and Witches battlefield.
Boom!
As Kunpeng’s voice fell, the entire North Sea trembled, numerous mysterious runes appeared, covering the entire North Sea.
Immediately, the origin of the North Sea emerged, transforming into a huge North Sea celestial pool, spewing endless innate coldness and the power of the water spirit, rushing toward the Ruined Land transformed by the Kunpeng Ancestor.
At the same time, in the deepest part of the Northern Netherworld, the farthest edge of heaven and earth, the eternal Ruined Land began to undergo inexplicable changes.
Threads of the aura of demise ascended, following a mysterious and unknown connection, also rushing toward the Kunpeng Ancestor transformed into Ruined Land.
During his years of seclusion in the Northern Netherworld, Kunpeng Ancestor did two things besides cultivating the main forces of the Demon Clan: first, he comprehended the Ruined Land and, based on his identity, established a connection with it to borrow its power.
The second thing was to interfere with the origin of the North Sea.
The reason why the origin of the North Sea turned into a North Sea celestial pool was all because of Kunpeng Ancestor’s accomplishments.
Over these years, besides the North Pole controlled by the Black Tortoise and the Ruined Land that no one could control, the rest of the origin of the North Sea had been refined by the Kunpeng Ancestor. This enabled him, with the blessing of the North Sea, to possess nearly infinite power.
Fortunately, the Black Tortoise resided in the North Sea; otherwise, it would have all fallen into the hands of Kunpeng. In that case, a scenario where the North Sea was indestructible and Kunpeng was immortal would form. Then, killing the Kunpeng Ancestor would have become difficult.
There are many places like the Sea of Blood in the Prehistoric World, so why has only the Underworld River managed to sustain, with the Sea of Blood not drying up and the Underworld River not dying?
It is because other places fostered more than one Innate Saint, but the Sea of Blood fostered only the Underworld River as an Innate Saint.
With no one to contend with, he could do as he pleased.
The powers of the Northern Netherworld and the Ruined Land were too strong; even with the obstruction from the Sun, Moon, and Stars Map, they couldn’t be stopped from surging into Kunpeng’s body.
Boom!
The Ruined Land transformed by Kunpeng Ancestor became stronger as it turned, with endless auras of demise emerging, the stars quickly dimming and bursting, emitting an aura that seemed to end the world.
The power of the North Sea mixed with the aura of demise, forming black seawater that surged forward, seeming to bury everything.
At this moment, Kunpeng Ancestor’s power could be said to have completely entered the level of a saint, comparable to a Daluo Jinxian of the Primordial.
The top Great Divine Transcendents of the Prehistoric World were just so powerful; if they really fought desperately, they could momentarily manifest strength comparable to a Daluo Jinxian of the Primordial. Hence, even saints, if not absolutely necessary, would not push a top Great Divine Transcendent to a dead end.
"Ultimate destruction, huh? Ha ha, Kunpeng, how could you foresee that this scene before you is exactly what I’ve been hoping for!"
Faced with Kunpeng Ancestor whose strength was comparable to a Daluo Jinxian of the Primordial, Jiang Chen showed no panic, but instead smiled. He had no choice but to smile because only the most ultimate destruction could birth the first sparks of life.
"Honored predecessors, please lend me your strength!" Jiang Chen revealed another trump card: the one hundred and eight Innate Dao Sovereigns currently residing in the Heavenly Divine Palace.
Not only them, but Jiang Chen’s ancestor, Jiang Xuan, was also within the Heavenly Divine Palace due to Hou Yi’s demise. With their help, Jiang Chen’s strength also entered the level of a Sub-Saint.
Therefore, Kunpeng Ancestor was doomed to fail. Because Jiang Chen had two Innate Treasures, while he didn’t even have one.
"Open!"
Swinging the Open Sky Axe, Jiang Chen seemed to truly transform into Pangu, fiercely slashing toward the approaching force of the Ruined Land.
Swish~
The dazzling light of the axe sliced through, actually splitting the Ruined Land open. Then, light was born, under which the power of the Ruined Land melted like ice and swiftly transformed into the aura of creation.
To kill Kunpeng Ancestor, what a waste!
Jiang Chen waited just for the moment when Kunpeng transformed into the Ruined Land, then split him open, turning him into a vast world, becoming the foundation of the Human Race.
Pioneering heaven and earth was something Jiang Chen was very adept at, having done it many times.
Raising the Open Sky Axe, Jiang Chen continually chopped down. Meanwhile, Kunpeng also used the power of the Ruined Land to manifest many Demon Gods to stop him, but none could withstand the power of the Open Sky Axe, and were forcefully shattered.
At this moment, it seemed as if Pangu’s Sky Breaking were happening again; although countless Demon Gods came to obstruct, it was of no use. They could only watch helplessly as heaven and earth were gradually pioneered.
However, the difference was, Pangu’s Sky Breaking consumed the power of Chaos, while Jiang Chen’s consumed Kunpeng’s origin.
The larger the expansion of heaven and earth, the more of Kunpeng’s origin was lost, and his power became weaker.
