Chapter 2280: Hand of the Divine! Transcendent Stage Three

Now, after Xia Yao's Transcendent Skill and domain were combined, she alone was like a wolf pack in the dark forest!
Every single Shadow Yao lit up with the radiance of Nine Star Flash, extended wolf claws, and moved through the dark forest like spirits of the night!
Charging straight toward the biochemical tyrants!
Another Xia Yao emerged from Jiangnan's shadow, wrapped an arm around his shoulder, and a smirk curved on her lips.
(˵ಡ↼ಡ)"You little criminal, just sit back and be a spectator. Watch this bounty hunter bite and kill all these people stealing our business one by one!"
Jiangnan's face carried a warm and gentle smile.
(๑ᵒ̴̶̷◡ᵒ̴̶̷)"Eh? Wouldn't that make me look really useless?"
Xia Yao rolled her eyes in exasperation and tossed her head.
(︶~︶〃)"Hmph~ Before, you were always protecting us, shielding us behind you…"
"But at least now, we can protect you a little too. Eh~ let me show off a bit, okay~"
Jiangnan smiled, watching Xia Yao's cheeks gradually redden. He couldn't help but clear his throat, his eyes sparkling.
(ʃƪಡ̫ಡ)"Hey hey hey~ what's the deal with these shadow clones of yours? I can't even tell which one is real. Are these clones really that lifelike?"
Xia Yao grinned darkly: (∗ᵒ̶̶̷̀⥎˂̶́)੭"It's a skill effect from Dark Night Lord. The shadow clones basically have part of my main body's skills and combat strength! They can differentiate into Shadow Yao, forming a dark wolf pack!"
"Senses can also be transmitted between us. Theoretically, there's no limit to the number of clones, but the more splits, the weaker each Shadow Yao becomes!"
"My main body can also switch between the many Shadow Yao. As for whether they're lifelike or not? Why don't you take a look for yourself?"
As she spoke, she looked at Jiangnan with a mischievous expression and blew a breath toward his ear.
Jiangnan shuddered violently. What the heck, "take a look for yourself"? This is probably really lifelike, isn't it?
Am I this blessed?
Having just come out of the death prison after a hard life, how could Jiangnan handle this?
(♡﹃♡〃)"Huh~ I'll check later. It's not convenient with so many people around now!"
Xia Yao's eyes widened. You actually plan to check, huh?
Jiangnan asked curiously: "You and Xuexue have grown so much? Where did you get the spirit techniques to absorb?"
Xia Yao smiled: "We went to the Red Sun Star Domain. Xuexue absorbed the Red Sun Core and also broke through the Extreme Dark Demon Realm. I got my skills there!"
"While you were gone, we were busy as hell. We've had enough experiences to write a novel, you know? I'll tell you the details later."
"You got stuck in the death prison for three months, and we finally had a chance to catch up. How could we let it go?"
(︶̫︶〃)"Transcendent and you! Of course we chose Transcendent, dummy! You don't have that luck, hmph~"
Jiangnan's face fell. Indeed, while he was in the death prison, although he made big breakthroughs in physical fitness and mental strength, making up for his shortcomings,
his level was undoubtedly left behind. Xuexue, Wolfbane, and the others never stopped. With unlimited star source energy blocks and their own opportunities,
they reached Transcendent ahead of Jiangnan.
Jiangnan was itching with anxiety. Now he hadn't achieved Transcendent himself, nor had he made it to Transcendent. Empty-handed on both sides!
Just as Jiangnan was fretting, Xia Yao's Dark Wolf Pack had already clashed with the biochemical tyrants.
The Spirit-Binding Field in the dark forest was completely useless against Xia Yao, and instead the tyrants were silenced by skill sealing.
But the biochemical tyrants were no pushovers either. They were loaded with a large number of silicon-based weapons.
However, the dark giant trees were no decoration either. They all reached out their demonic claws toward the tyrants.
Branches grabbed at the tyrants like dark tentacles, controlling their movements and madly absorbing their life force.
Even if blown apart, they quickly grew back, like darkness that couldn't be dispelled.
Meanwhile, the Shadow Yao took the opportunity to leap out from the darkness, bathed in moonlight, with Nine Star Flash gleaming. Steel claws swept through, cutting and shattering the tyrants.
Then they re-entered the darkness, attacking again and again from unexpected angles, like starving wolves slowly devouring their prey bit by bit.
But the biochemical tyrants weren't easy to deal with either. Knowing they were trapped in the mire, they fired every weapon they had, vowing to kill the Shadow Yao attacking them.
Yet the Shadow Yao didn't dodge or evade. Instead, they charged straight ahead, their energy surging to the extreme, then detonated in a massive self-destruction.
"Boom!"
Violent energy ripples swallowed the biochemical tyrant instantly, blasting flesh and mechanical parts everywhere.
One by one, the Shadow Yao, fearless of death, launched suicide attacks, charging forward and blowing themselves up.
The dark forest echoed with bursts of firelight, continuously consuming the tyrants' lives.
But the self-destructed Shadow Yao quickly stepped out of the darkness again and charged into the fray once more.
Jiangnan's eyes twitched:
=͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪‧̣̥̇)"You can self-destruct shadow clones too? Isn't that cheating? You're the real suicide bomber!"
"Does the increase really become this big when you reach Transcendent rank?"
The shattered biochemical tyrants were still being drained of life force by the dark forest.
Xia Yao was a little smug from the praise:
୧(〃⁼̴ꇴ⁼̴)"Eh? Do you think I've grown a lot? Transcendent is an evolution of life form, completely different from crossing levels before. You'll know once you get there!"
She looked toward the moon shadow in the starry sky.
"Hmm~ Looks about right?"
With a wave of Xia Yao's hand, infinite darkness surged upward, like a giant curtain rolling toward the silver moon shadow.
Midair, it transformed into a massive dark wolf shadow, opened its huge mouth, and bit directly onto the silver moon shadow.
Jiangnan's eyes widened: (*゚ロ゚)"Oh wow~ Dog eats the moon!"
Xia Yao: !!!
(งᵒ̌皿ᵒ̌)ง⁼³₌₃"It's a Celestial Wolf! A Celestial Wolf, I said!"
She raised her hand and gave Jiangnan a sharp knock on the head, but only ended up giving her own hand a big red bump.
[From Xia Yao: Resentment +777!]
Hey hey hey! What kind of body strength is this? Xiaonan hasn't even reached Transcendent yet?
Annoyed, Xia Yao reached out and vigorously rubbed Jiangnan's inch-short hair, which looked like a kiwi.
(◦`~´◦)"Annoying! Annoying!"
After the dark wolf shadow completely swallowed the silver moon shadow, the dark forest fell into endless darkness—black so thick you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.
The darkness surged wildly, and the massive dark wolf shadow galloped through the dark forest, charging straight toward the biochemical tyrants.
It raised its head and let out a long howl.
The desolate wolf howl shook the soul. All biochemical tyrants in the domain were frozen.
In the next moment, the dark wolf shadow exploded violently. The darkness mixed with cold moonlight, annihilating everything around.
Countless biochemical tyrants were directly crushed by this Celestial Wolf Devouring Moon.
Then, a dim silver moon shadow rose again in the domain, gradually brightening.
A new round of hunting began. The biochemical tyrants in the domain were now only remnants.
Jiangnan's scalp went numb: "Damn! This really impresses me. The energy swallowed by darkness automatically accumulates into the silver moon shadow?"
Clearly, the remaining biochemical tyrants were already remnants and couldn't withstand the second round of hunting.
They would be completely buried by the darkness.
Over on Zhong Yingxue's side, she was also using her domain to stall the Bose Body.
The annihilation halo made it impossible for the Bose Body to enter her domain.
Venus was furious.
The duck that had reached its mouth had flown away!
On the other side, Dante, working together with the Creation Beast, had already pushed Yakeli to the limit. His domain kept collapsing.
Dante saw that his wife's arm had been cut off twice, and immediately panicked.
(ꐦ°᷄益°᷅)"You're asking for death!"
He continued to have the Creation Beast attack Yakeli, while his two large hands aimed at Jiangnan.
"Die! God's Will • World Annihilation!"
In an instant, a beam of ten-color annihilation particles filled with violent destructive power shot toward Jiangnan at terrifying speed.
Xia Yao's fur immediately stood on end. Such an attack—she, a rookie who had just reached Transcendent, couldn't block it.
Jiangnan clicked his tongue. He was about to pull Xia Yao and retreat using a Warp Bubble.
But at that moment, a plump figure stood in front of the light beam.
Jiangnan: !!!
∑(°口°๑)"Damn! Is that Xiong Er? Tell him to retreat fast! This thing isn't something he can block!"
Xia Yao's mouth twitched: (´-﹏-`٥)"It's not Xiong Er. It's Wu Liang. He should be able to withstand it, because Big Guy is the strongest among us right now."
"He's already at Transcendent Stage Three. The first one to achieve the feat of destroying a planet was Wu Liang…"
Jiangnan's eyes bulged. This fatty is Wu Liang?
He's a Planet Destroyer? No way!
Did he eat some immortal medicine? What the heck is Transcendent Stage Three?
And Wu Liang, who was always the last to keep up, how did he end up at the top?
Wu Liang laughed heartily:
(。•ˇꇴˇ•。)"I want to see how you make my Brother Nan die!"
"Transcendent Skill: Hand of the Divine!"
Wu Liang spread his left hand wide toward the incoming annihilation beam.
Endless golden divine patterns flickered on his hand.
The next moment, a gigantic golden hand phantom took shape in the void.
This hand was so large it could easily grasp a planet, covered densely with golden divine patterns.
Though a phantom, it was as solid as a real flesh-and-blood palm.
Jiangnan even thought for a moment that the Tathagata Palm had appeared.
This really is just a hand, huh?
Could your skill name be any lazier?
The giant hand opened, directly using its palm to block the incoming ten-color annihilation particles.
Endless particle beams split and diffracted through the gaps between fingers.
The divine patterns on the divine giant hand were constantly collapsing and regenerating. The hand was pushed backward.
But it actually managed to withstand the bombardment of ten-color annihilation particles head-on.
Dante's eyes widened: "Ancient Star God? Divine patterns? Weren't those ancient deities long dead? Already annihilated in the long river of starry history?"
"Where did this come from?"
Wu Liang's eyes bulged: "Damn! This is quite a punch!"
