Chapter 1887: Jinian's Bombardment
At the sight of that gate, the eyes of 【Chaos】 narrowed slightly.
"So it's actually the本体 of the Gate of Truth... Oh damn, and here I was thinking you'd been doing nothing while I couldn't read the Great Xia War Chronicles. But what can one remnant do against me?"
An Qingyu said nothing. His blood-stained fingertips brushed lightly across the corner of his eye, and the silhouette of a gate descended once more. The shadow overlapped with the grayish-white remnants of the gate. At that moment, the gate's remnant seemed to come alive, ancient and mysterious pressure pouring outward in all directions!
"You're going to awaken the 【Key to the Gate】 now? No... you're forcibly borrowing Its power?" 【Chaos】 spoke in surprise, then furrowed his brow. "Going to such lengths, just to deal with me? You think something like this can kill me?"
BOOM—!!
Before 【Chaos】 could finish speaking, a deep blue beam of light came roaring in from the distance!
He paused slightly, turning back in confusion to find two figures standing in the air on the other side of the landmass. One was a silver-haired girl carrying an absurdly large cannon platform, and deep blue destructive energy was rapidly sweeping across the land below!
As that deep blue beam swept past, explosions rang out in succession, blinding flashes of fire erupting like suddenly lit orbs, engulfing the earth in accordance with the cannon's sweeping trajectory!
"That's..." 【Chaos】's pupils contracted slightly.
Sharp shrieks erupted from within the 【Black Goat】, dense tentacles thrashing madly, rushing toward the two figures with reckless abandon!
He could clearly feel it—under that deep blue beam, the offspring he had painstakingly nurtured were dissolving at an alarming rate. Hatred and fury filled every crimson eyeball.
Almost simultaneously, An Qingyu's form flickered and he teleported above the Gate of Truth.
He looked at 【Chaos】 and spoke calmly:
"I'm standing here not to kill you... but to let you know that although I'm not the true 【Key to the Gate】, I'm also not some ant you can trample at will."
As his words fell, An Qingyu raised his fingertip and pressed it against his brow.
BANG—!
The next moment, his body exploded once more, crimson flesh and blood splattering across the grayish-white gate, soaking in rapidly.
The Gate of Truth where reality and illusion overlapped shuddered violently. The massive gate slowly opened with a low rumble, and eerie mist poured forth from within!
The instant the Gate of Truth opened, time and space stopped!
Soaring dust froze in mid-air, the waves churning through the strait seemed to have been paused, and even the 【Black Goat】 charging toward the distance slowed down, moving at a snail's pace, its dense tentacles...
The black pharaoh-form 【Chaos】 also slowed, as if mired in the mud of time and space. Those two eyes stared fixedly at the open Gate of Truth, fury slowly climbing his features.
Within the mist-swirling Gate of Truth, a sky-covering hand of starlight slowly emerged, passing through the frozen spacetime虚无ly and reaching for 【Chaos】's body!
...
"What's happening over there?"
Jinian sensed that suffocating aura and couldn't help but turn to look.
"Three Pillar Gods civil war, but thankfully we're far enough away not to get caught in the crossfire." Lin Qiye glanced at the Gate of Truth standing between heaven and earth, as well as that enormous starlight hand, his expression somewhat grave.
That terrifying energy fluctuation... What means did An Qingyu use? Could the 【Key to the Gate】 have fully awakened?
"But the 【Black Goat】 is glaring at us."
"It's caught in the spacetime manipulation too, this is our chance!" Lin Qiye pointed at the distant earth. "That area, and that area, blow them all up!"
"You're really asking for it! Do you have any idea how exhausting it is to maintain this planet-destroying cannon at maximum power!" Jinian struggled under the weight of the planet-destroying cannon, the deep blue beam sweeping across the ground at alarming speed, orange-red explosions swallowing the surface, turning the entire landmass into a sea of fire.
At maximum power, one shot from the planet-destroying cannon could sink the Divine Desire Paradise. Under Jinian's sustained bombardment, the entire coastline had already melted away, hundreds of millions of giant eggs reduced to ash.
Successive roars rang out from the distance—several Cthulhu Faction gods who hadn't been caught in the spacetime freeze had noticed the commotion here and were rapidly approaching.
Meanwhile, black tides surged forth from the depths of the land. Lin Qiye looked carefully and realized they were countless Black Goat offspring that had already hatched—roughly in the hundreds of millions. They must have sensed that the two were destroying the unhatched young, wanting to stop them.
What Lin Qiye and Jinian were doing now was undoubtedly annihilating four years' worth of the Cthulhu Faction's accumulated strength. At this moment, their仇恨值 in the minds of all Cthulhu Faction creatures had been completely maxed out!
BOOM—!!
Radiant starlight devoured the distant Pillar God battlefield. The shockwaves of the aftershock tore a gap in the mirror world.
The next moment, the scattered starlight collapsed inch by inch, frozen time resumed, dense black light points exploded throughout the battlefield, swallowing starlight fragments like black holes. Even the Gate of Truth standing majestic had gradually collapsed under the rumbling.
Because the distance was too great, Lin Qiye couldn't see the state of the battlefield at all, but the 【Black Goat】 that had broken free from the time-space mire charged straight toward them!
"Enough! Run!!"
Lin Qiye didn't hesitate in the slightest, immediately calling for Jinian to stop, pulling her and fleeing rapidly into the distance!
Black clouds covered in tentacles shrieked shrilly, several thick goat hooves shattering the earth. Seeing the incubation ground below reduced to complete ruins, the 【Black Goat】's fury had been completely ignited—it chased relentlessly behind the two.
At the same time, the sea stretching before Lin Qiye and the others suddenly churned violently. Three massive Cthulhu Faction god figures rose from within, standing like an insurmountable wall, blocking their path!
With three Cthulhu Faction gods blocking ahead, the furious 【Black Goat】 pursuing behind, plus the endless tide of offspring, Lin Qiye had absolutely no escape!
"We've been surrounded!" Jinian turned to look at Lin Qiye. "Where are these reinforcements you mentioned?! If they don't show up now, we're dead!!"
Lin Qiye said nothing. He stood there like a statue, seemingly dazed.
"Hey hey hey, what's with that expression? Don't tell me there aren't actually any reinforcements!" Jinian's eyes went wide.
That brief pause caused the distance between the 【Black Goat】 and them to shrink rapidly. Hooves struck the ground, and that sky-obscuring cloud of flesh and blood was already behind them!
At that moment, a burst of brilliance erupted in Lin Qiye's eyes. He suddenly looked up.
"They're here!"
"What? What's here? Where?"
DING—!!
Before Jinian could finish speaking, a crisp sword cry suddenly echoed through the sky!
