Chapter 2821: Deity
Jiang Fan went straight up against the strongest, Qian Li, but Jiangnan wasn't idle on his side either!
There were still seven left in the field!
And the dozen or so Instant Slashes just now came from them, only to be blocked by Jiangnan!
Instant Slash requires a follow-up strike; otherwise, the cause and effect won't be established, leading to extremely severe backlash!
Led by Long Qian, several Star Devourers drew their Holy Judgment Blades and prepared to slash into the void!
But just then, Jiangnan vanished abruptly, hurtling down from above like a meteor!
Grabbing with one hand, he formed a large flag bearing the character "Nan" in a glazed color, thrusting it fiercely into the void!
"Boom!"
A strange wave of energy erupted violently, firmly sealing the void!
Long Qian and the others failed in their follow-up strike; their Holy Judgment Blades couldn't even cut into the fourth dimension, swinging through empty air!
Trapped within three-dimensional space, their pupils contracted sharply!
How is this possible?!
But the Instant Slash blades had to be followed up—dragging things out any longer would be dangerous!
Since the space was sealed and they couldn't enter from outside, they had to use themselves as breakthrough points!
One by one, the Star Devourers activated their Four-Dimensional Bodies, transforming into four-dimensional humanoid forms!
They swung their blades in savage strikes!
But at that moment, Jiangnan locked onto Liu Ren, activating warp speed and charging forward!
The Blade of Will condensed in his hand!
"Moment of Eternity!"
Time was inflated by Jiangnan to the point of standstill!
If Liu Ren wanted to move, he'd have to dive deeper into the fourth dimension, surpass the time dimension, and enter the gap in time!
But Jiangnan wouldn't give him even a single moment's chance!
While releasing Moment of Eternity, Jiangnan had already warped speed to slash!
"Hyperdimensional Slash!"
A single blade flashed, and dreamlike colors spilled across the sky like a canopy!
Liu Ren's sword-wielding arm was severed clean off, spinning through the air—even though he had activated his Four-Dimensional Body, Jiangnan could still reach him!
The fourth dimension was no longer a sanctuary for gods!
Jiangnan's blade had already arrived there!
Liu Ren's eyes bulged with rage as a Dimensional Sphere erupted from his body, attempting to repel Jiangnan!
But Jiangnan was no longer the weakling who'd tire after a few slashes!
"Hyperdimensional Warp Speed Continuous Slash: I Am the Cleaver!"
This was pure meat-mincing combat; no one could track Jiangnan's blade trajectory!
In an instant, countless blade lights slashed out, shattering the Dimensional Sphere and carving through Liu Ren's body!
Both horns atop his head were severed, his Four-Dimensional Body minced finer than ground meat!
Panicked, Liu Ren still tried to reassemble his body!
But just then, Jiangnan spread his hand wide!
"Realm Expansion!"
The tiny gaps left by the Hyperdimensional Slashes suddenly expanded, scattering Liu Ren's minced body like countless stars across every corner of the battlefield!
"Prelude to Withering: Hundred Melodies, Thousand Blades!"
"Thousand Blades Flower Sea!"
Countless two-dimensional blades had already slashed into every part of Liu Ren's body the moment Realm Expansion occurred!
In an instant, thousands of two-dimensional flowers bloomed across the battlefield, like death flowers blossoming on the other shore!
Frantically absorbing the energy from the fragments of Liu Ren's body!
Liu Ren was utterly desperate: "Help! I'm dying!"
Who the hell could withstand a style like this?!
Long Qian, Yu Gen, and the other Star Devourers weren't pushovers—how could they give Jiangnan the chance to pick them off one by one?
"Die! Four-Dimensional Descent!"
The six Star Devourers joined forces, unleashing Dimensional Descent over the entire battlefield!
No matter how strong Jiangnan was, he still had a physical body—even if his blade could reach the fourth dimension, he absolutely couldn't survive in it!
With a full-scale Four-Dimensional Descent, let's see if you retreat or not!
But Jiangnan showed no sign of fleeing!
He clasped his hands together before his chest!
"Ark of the Starry Sea!"
A massive glazed ark phantom took shape, completely enveloping Jiangnan's body. The ark seemed both real and illusory, clearly before their eyes yet appearing infinitely distant!
Dozens of "Nan" character flags fluttered atop the ark!
Even platinum-white flames of will ignited along the hull!
Transforming into a blazing ark!
"Boom, rumble!"
Four-Dimensional Descent instantly submerged the space where Jiangnan stood!
Looking out, it was a chaotic, kaleidoscopic mess!
Yang Jian and the others' hearts leaped into their throats!
This was a combined Dimensional Descent from six Star Devourers!
(•́﹏•̀٥) "Can Jiangnan withstand this? No matter how strong he is, he's still a carbon-based lifeform—he can't survive in the fourth dimension!"
Even Zhong Yingxue and the others grew uneasy!
But Wang Youzhi said calmly:
(￢↼￢◕) "Rest assured a hundred times over—the glory of the Eternal Era won't be so easily overshadowed!"
"He carries the will of eternity on him. Perhaps even Jiangnan himself doesn't know how strong he truly is now, or where his limits lie…"
"The functions of the Eternal Heart haven't even been fully unlocked yet!"
Indeed, Jiangnan couldn't survive in the fourth dimension!
But what if he simply didn't let the fourth dimension invade?
The Ark of the Starry Sea was arguably the strongest defense in Eternal Glory, and Jiangnan had even modified it!
Although the battlefield had been submerged by the fourth dimension, it hadn't managed to invade the interior of the Ark of the Starry Sea—it was furiously compressing the space there!
Simply unable to breach it!
The ark's space kept collapsing under the pressure, but it also kept regenerating!
Veins bulging on Jiangnan's forehead!
(ꐦ°᷄◡°᷅ꐦ) "Damn, this is really something, huh?"
"But trying to kill me? You're still too green!"
Long Qian narrowed his eyes: "All together! Get him!"
The six Star Devourers charged straight into the Dimensional Descent!
Tian Lü roared: "Pillar of Heavenly Law! Suppress!"
Massive four-dimensional square pillars descended, smashing against the Ark of the Starry Sea, trying to crush it!
The other Bose Star Devourers attacked frantically!
The battle had barely begun when it erupted into a white-hot frenzy!
Chong Feiyu was frantic—she couldn't help much in this situation!
With her abilities, most of her moves were useless against the fourth dimension, and even Yakeli was the same!
(งᵒ̌﹏ᵒ̌)ง "Little carp! Help! I'll make you big fatty fish head soup with Dali later!"
Little carp's eyes lit up at that, drooling!
He squeezed his eyes shut with a constipated expression, and the next moment, an incredibly powerful innate Styx River Force Field erupted, clashing with the Four-Dimensional Descent zone!
Furiously suppressing the overall range of the Four-Dimensional Descent!
Just then, veins bulging on Jiangnan's forehead!
He roared: "Come!"
Nine supermassive black holes seemed to resonate with his call, hurtling toward the Four-Dimensional Descent zone, crashing into it!
They madly tore and devoured the four-dimensional space!
Black holes could devour not only three-dimensional space but four-dimensional space as well!
Even the Bose Star Devourers absolutely didn't want to crash into a black hole!
Long Qian cursed in frustration and could only dodge the onslaught!
The nine black holes acted like battlefield vacuum cleaners, tearing the Four-Dimensional Descent to shreds!
And then, Jiangnan's chilling voice came from the center!
"Hyperdimensional Heaven-Splitter!"
A single slash tore the Four-Dimensional Descent apart completely, splitting it in two and rolling it away on both sides like a drawn sword parting the sea!
The moment the Four-Dimensional Descent was fully cleaved open!
Everyone was blinded by the dazzling light at the center!
The Ark of the Starry Sea had turned to nothingness, the light at its core blazing like a divine sun!
Only Jiangnan's voice echoed!
"One Thought Becomes God!"
"Activating Deity Form!"
As the divine light faded, everyone finally saw Jiangnan clearly, stunned by his current appearance!
At this moment, Jiangnan's body was completely bathed in a golden halo!
It was impossible to tell if this was still a physical body or a divine body!
His form seemed to hover between a fleshly body and a will-based body, clad in an unbreakable sacred garment, floating midair!
Behind him, a golden half-body deity phantom appeared!
The phantom's face was Jiangnan's own!
But the phantom's eyes were closed…
The deity phantom held a two-dimensional blade in one hand and a Blade of Will in the other!
Behind it, eight "Nan" character banners fluttered, and even a golden halo glowed behind its head!
The nine black holes revolved around the deity phantom like loyal guards, overwhelming the entire field!
Everyone's eyes went wide, staring at Jiangnan in shock!
(๑ʘ̅口ʘ̅๑)!!!
Deity Form?
This… this is too godly, damn it!
If there really were gods in this world, they'd probably look just like this!
Jiangnan tucked his hands in his pockets, looking up at Long Qian, Yu Gen, and the others!
"You were all pinnacle beings I once had to look up to, even to catch a glimpse—gods in your own right, looking down on the masses from on high!"
"I've been forging ahead with my head down, watching the road beneath my feet, never daring to pause for even a moment!"
"And now, when I look up again, those beings I once had to gaze up at—they're nothing more than this…"
"The peak… isn't necessarily unreachable!"
"I, Jiangnan, don't need to look up to any god! Because I… will become my own god!"
Long Qian's face darkened. Could they really not take down Jiangnan even with so many Star Devourers besieging him together?
Their tried-and-true high-dimensional attacks and fourth-dimensional strikes could no longer even threaten Jiangnan?
Boundless ten-colored Creation Particles converged!
Liu Ren's figure reappeared, though it was extremely faint, and the horns on his head had been severed!
His expression was grim as he immediately activated his Bose Supercritical State, regenerating the horns on his head!
"Don't talk big! A Star Devourer's body isn't something you can shake!"
"At least you didn't manage to kill me!"
Star Devourers weren't so easy to kill, especially Bose Star Devourers!
Liu Ren had been pushed to such extremes by Jiangnan's combo yet was still alive!
Jiangnan sneered: "Oh? Is that so? Are you really sure?"
As he spoke, his aura surged, and the deity phantom behind him solidified further!
"Baleful God Opens Its Eyes!"
At that moment, the deity phantom behind Jiangnan suddenly opened its eyes!
Its pupils were a fierce scarlet!
