Chapter 315 - Just Let Them Come

With the Transcendent Immortal domain deployed, the immortal patterns on Poxian’s body flowed outside, wrapping around him like ribbons of silk, and his entire body's celestial spiritual energy enveloped him like a burning fire.

The burning celestial spiritual energy gradually spread over the entire Divine Venerable where Poxian was situated. The towering Divine Venerable was like a thousand-zhang pillar of celestial fire, its immortal might vast!

"Annihilate!"

Poxian extended his palm and grabbed towards Shadow, who was standing tall in the sky.

Shadow frowned slightly and threw a heavy demonic god punch!

However, just as this world-destroying punch came into contact with the palm of Poxian’s Dharma Body, it disintegrated as if erased by something!

Shadow was puzzled. With a single thought, it controlled countless shadows to slash at the Divine Venerable where Poxian was from all directions.

But the result was still the same!

All attacks, upon contact with the burning celestial spiritual energy on Poxian’s Divine Venerable, turned to dust!

Everything touched by Poxian’s Divine Venerable also instantly disintegrated, turning into fragments of spiritual light!

"Hmph, useless!"

"Even if the real Demon Lord were here, he couldn't do anything to this Lord!" Poxian proclaimed confidently.

His Transcendent Immortal domain, unlike Yingli's which swallowed heaven and earth into a snake belly, was one that covered his own Divine Venerable.

Anything touched by his Divine Venerable—all things in heaven and earth—would disintegrate and return to dust and nothingness!

This was also the origin of his title as the God of Destruction!

It was just that this Annihilation God Law not only consumed a great deal of his own celestial spiritual energy but also came at the cost of overdrafting his lifespan and life force.

Unless absolutely necessary, he generally would not use it.

At this moment, he was also forced by Shadow with no other choice.

If he didn't hurry, even if the Demon Lord didn't come, he wouldn't be able to maintain the Annihilation God Law for much longer if he kept dragging it out.

The demonic god arm was turned to dust, and Poxian’s Divine Venerable reached out to grab Shadow.

Shadow raised a shadow to envelop itself, but in an instant, Shadow, along with the enveloping shadow, was annihilated by the Annihilation God Law in the Divine Venerable's hand, dissipating in the blink of an eye!

*Hmph, still trying to resist his Annihilation God Law!*

*Laughable!*

*Even the so-called immortal and indestructible Shadow Clan must be annihilated under his Indestructible Divine Venerable!*

Seeing Shadow directly annihilated, Poxian couldn't help but reveal a smug and proud smile.

He immediately turned and walked towards the shadow barrier enveloping Luo Ruying and Luo Hongye.

But just as he was preparing to reach out and erase that shadow barrier as well, a mass of black shadow emerged again on the barrier…

*It actually wasn't dead…?!*

*Can even the Annihilation God Law not do anything to the Shadow Clan!*

Poxian was greatly shocked. Gritting his teeth, he reached out to grab it regardless of anything else.

*Since it's not dead, then I'll just annihilate it again!*

*And while I'm at it, I'll break the shadow barrier and take the child away directly!*

Poxian already had a plan in his heart.

Even if he couldn't kill Shadow, it didn't matter. All he had to do was take the child away!

And just at this moment, the Shadow that had appeared on the shadow barrier suddenly and slowly transformed into Poxian’s appearance…!

Under Poxian’s puzzled gaze, Shadow, in his form, burned its demonic spiritual energy and summoned a Divine Venerable Dharma Body identical to his own!

A jet-black Divine Venerable stood tall before the shadow barrier and, with one hand, caught the palm of Poxian’s Divine Venerable!

*It can even replicate his abilities…?!*

*It summoned his Divine Venerable Dharma Body…!*

Poxian was stunned speechless.

The abilities Shadow displayed were far beyond those of any Shadow Clan member he had ever seen.

What made Poxian even more incredulous was that the Divine Venerable Dharma Body summoned by Shadow had caught his Divine Venerable's palm with one hand and was not destroyed by the Annihilation God Law at all!

How could this be possible!

Poxian widened his eyes and looked closely, only to discover that the Divine Venerable Dharma Body summoned by Shadow was also burning with demonic spiritual energy for protection, emitting the same Transcendent Immortal domain aura as his own Divine Venerable!

It had even replicated his Transcendent Immortal domain!!!

When two identical domain laws collided, naturally, there would be no effect!

While Poxian was in shock, the Divine Venerable controlled by Shadow grabbed his Divine Venerable's palm with one hand, and with the other, smashed a heavy divine fist into its face!

*RUMBLE!*

Poxian’s Divine Venerable was sent flying backward, the impact shattering the sky!

"Annihilation God Law, Heaven and Earth Quiescence!"

Poxian, unable to believe that Shadow could replicate his Annihilation God Law, immediately controlled his Divine Venerable to clap its hands together, bursting forth with an endless divine might!

The celestial spiritual energy burning on the Divine Venerable was, in fact, his Annihilation God Law.

As the palms clapped heavily together, the celestial spiritual energy on the Divine Venerable rippled out like waves in water!

Wherever the celestial spiritual wave passed, for ten thousand li in every direction, heaven and earth ceased to exist!

Shadow controlled its Divine Venerable to block in front of the shadow barrier. After watching Poxian’s hand gestures once, it also had its Divine Venerable clap its hands together.

The same vast spiritual wave rippled out from its Divine Venerable's body!

The two massive spiritual waves collided, and the entire sky was reduced to nothingness, leaving only an endless, distorted, and chaotic space-time!

The spiritual wave rebounded, and Poxian could no longer hold it in and spat out another mouthful of blood. His burly immortal body had become considerably thinner than before.

The several-thousand-zhang-tall Divine Venerable that was merged with his body also slowly dissipated at this moment…

His spiritual energy was no longer sufficient to continue maintaining the Divine Venerable's descent…

This also meant that it was no longer possible for him to snatch Luo Hongye from Shadow's hands.

Poxian found it truly hard to believe that he, one of the Nine Great Divine Venerables, was actually unable to snatch a child from a mere Shadow.

After just watching once, it was able to completely use the same moves as him…

One must know, whether it was the Divine Venerable or the Annihilation God Law, they were both unique moves that he had comprehended through single-minded insight and cultivation, spending tens of thousands of years…

Yet Shadow had so easily replicated his Divine Venerable and Annihilation God Law, and its divine might was even greater than his…

How could this not be a setback for him…

He never thought that by the Demon Lord's side, there would also be a Shadow with such cultivation and strength protecting the child.

No wonder the Demon Lord had paid him no mind and let him approach Luo Hongye…

The Demon Lord had known from the beginning that it was impossible for him to take the child from Shadow's hands…

Poxian knew well that he no longer had a chance to seize Luo Hongye. Clutching his chest, he quickly transformed into a divine rainbow and turned to flee.

He had just flown a short distance when a graceful figure was already standing tall in mid-air, waiting for him.

"Where are you going?" Ning Yechen asked 'amicably', a cold sneer on his lips, turning towards Poxian.

"You don't really think that after daring to make a move on this Lord's child, you can still get away, do you?"

Poxian looked back at the pursuing Shadow, then turned his head again to look at Ning Yechen, his expression hardening, a look of resolve in his eyes.

The immortal patterns on his body flowed again, and a vast celestial spiritual energy filled the sky!

The spiritual pressure alone was enough to distort the void!

"You're fast…"

"Fine. Let this Lord test the Demon Lord's strength!" Poxian said, his eyes narrowed, staring fixedly at Ning Yechen, staking everything on one last throw.

He knew that with the Demon Lord here, it was impossible for him to leave.

But he was absolutely unwilling to perish just like this!

"To test this Lord's strength, you are not yet worthy."

Ning Yechen said calmly. He extended his hand out of thin air, and a demonic god hand emerging from the shadow directly grabbed Poxian and held him in its palm!

Poxian braced himself against the demonic god's palm with both hands, already using all his strength!

The terrifying power of the demonic god's palm, extended by the Demon Lord himself, was completely beyond what Shadow could compare to!

"Demon Lord! Even if you kill this Lord!"

"In the future, other Divine Venerables will come!"

"Surely you don't think this Lord is the only one coveting that child! Hahaha!"

Poxian roared at Ning Yechen, his arms gradually unable to hold, the sound of breaking bones coming from his body, blood streaming from his seven orifices, his face ferocious.

Ning Yechen’s expression was ice-cold, his face full of disdain.

"Just let them come."

"Anyone who dares to make a move on this Lord's child, dies!"

As the last word fell, Ning Yechen applied a little force, and Poxian was instantly crushed to pieces by the demonic god's palm!

He was crushed to death with one grip!

After the demonic god's hand opened, Poxian’s corpse slowly fell from the sky and finally landed in the shadow, where it was slowly swallowed…
