CHAPTER 977: CHAPTER 760: TIER 10_4

"A special Divine Calamity solely nurtured to decompose the Destruction Dao, Space Avenue, Nihility Dao, and Flowing Light Path..."

At this moment, he finally understood why Nie Yu referred to Yuan Mou this way.

As a tremor shook Gu Jinlai’s heart, Yuan Mou abruptly turned, a brilliant azure light radiating from him, as if turning into a stream of light, shooting toward the depths of the cosmos at sub-light speed.

This Divine Calamity...

Is escaping!?

"Wait, its power..."

Gu Jinlai quickly perceived that the spiritual radiance contained within this Divine Calamity had dimmed to the extreme.

Perhaps it still possessed combat strength, but the Cold Moon Army’s Ming Zun would arrive in at most half a day, and in such a state, even if it decomposed the Destruction Dao, it had absolutely no chance of defeating him within that time.

With a thought, Gu Jinlai deployed Universe Light Without Boundary, his form abruptly traversing.

The surrounding space became a blur.

When Gu Jinlai reappeared, he had unexpectedly appeared in front of Yuan Mou.

Upon seeing this, Yuan Mou swiftly pivoted, his body enveloped in pale blue radiance, bursting with Flowing Light Path-like speed, traversing at sub-light speed, disappearing from Gu Jinlai’s sight in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this, Gu Jinlai once again deployed Universe Light Without Boundary.

In some small-scale life-and-death struggles, the speed burst of the Flowing Light Path might be more useful than the Space Avenue, but when it comes to traveling and pursuit...

Space Avenue surpasses Flowing Light Path by a wide margin.

"Buzz buzz!"

With a ripple in space flashing by, Gu Jinlai’s figure appeared once more before Yuan Mou.

And upon seeing Gu Jinlai, this Divine Calamity dared not hesitate and once again changed direction.

"It’s useless."

Gu Jinlai said calmly.

But then he realized something.

With possession of the Space Avenue, catching up to Yuan Mou, who had entered the flow light speed, was easy. Wouldn’t Yuan Mou, as a Divine Calamity born with intelligence, know this?

Gu Jinlai focused his gaze, diverting a hint of his Divine Sense to perceive Qing Lian, and upon noticing the rapid growth of the leaf representing "space" within Qing Lian, he quickly realized something.

"It’s fully decomposing the Space Avenue!"

Gu Jinlai’s expression changed.

Once this Divine Calamity decomposed the Space Avenue, it could completely disrupt the Space Avenue in his surrounding area before he could deploy Universe Light Without Boundary, thereby interfering with his spatial traversal.

Realizing this, Gu Jinlai dared not relax even a bit.

With the glow of Universe Light Without Boundary flickering, he instantly appeared around Yuan Mou, raising his hand to unleash a blast of Destruction Mixed Hole Sword Qi.

Yuan Mou’s form sank, a black dot appearing on him, frantically devouring and eroding its spiritual nature.

Yet relying on the decomposition of the Destruction Dao, the actual damage caused by this Immortal Technique was quite limited.

At least...

It couldn’t completely kill it within a few hours.

Yuan Mou’s eyes flickered with ferocity, glaring intently at Gu Jinlai: "Why go to such lengths!? What do you seek!? My true self is the Ancient God Yuanhuang, and my true self paid a great price to nurture me! Even if you can’t kill me, even if you truly manage to kill me, disrupting the plan my true self poured vast effort into, do you know what kind of consequence you’ll face!? From now on, whenever he has spare capacity, he’ll dispatch the strongest incarnation to have you slain! Even if you have the power of a Supreme Golden Immortal, you’ll still face a dead end!"

Blue light flickered on it, charging toward the distance like flowing light.

"Why fight so hard!? You can’t deal with a Divine Calamity, allowing that Divine Calamity to escape is entirely normal; no one is qualified to punish you! Just for the merit promised by those Honorable Daoists, you’re risking your life to fight!? If you actually get that merit, will you live to enjoy it? Is it worth it?"

Spiritual disturbance, seemingly trying to sway Gu Jinlai’s resolve.

Yet there was no change in Gu Jinlai’s expression.

Propelled by Tenth-Rank Divine Sense, the speed at which Destruction Mixed Hole Sword Qi was launched reached its extreme, repeatedly piercing through this Divine Calamity, dissolving its form.

Although the effect was minimal, it allowed Gu Jinlai to see through the facade of strength covering this Divine Calamity’s weakness.

Its power was already less than a tenth, relying entirely on the Power of Decomposition to withstand the lethal blasts of Destruction Mixed Hole Sword Qi.

If his Lifebound Immortal Skill weren’t a blend of the Devouring Dao and Destruction Dao, but any other Dao combination, this Divine Calamity would be utterly doomed.

At this moment, Gu Jinlai suddenly thought of something.

"In the Destruction Mixed Hole Sword Qi, the Devouring Dao is primary, the Destruction Dao is secondary, but within it, there also lies the mysterious essence of the Creation Dao, from nothing to something, from death to life..."
