Chapter 471 The Ending Battle (Part )
Chapter 471 The Ending Battle (Part )
The dazzling white sword light, like an inverted Milky Way, slashed fiercely at the ancient gate that was spewing gray mist.
clang--!
A dull metallic clang rang out, and time and space around the Gate of Truth seemed to freeze at that moment.
Immediately afterwards........
Fine cracks appeared on the golden portal from the higher-dimensional world.
"How can it be!"
[Key to the Gate] stared blankly at the scene.
The Gate of Truth is a product of a higher-dimensional world; there should be no force in this lower universe that could threaten it.
But the moment the sword light struck the ancient gate, the Key to the Gate could clearly sense that the connection between Him and the Gate of Truth was interrupted for a moment.
Could it be that this kid is...?
Remnants of a higher-dimensional world?
After much deliberation, it seems that only this explanation can answer some of the doubts in the mind of [Key to the Gate].
"You...aren't from this world, are you...?"
"So what if it is, and so what if it isn't?" Upon hearing this, Li Jie flicked his longsword, stood at an angle to his side, and answered casually.
"No matter which world I am in, I am a citizen of Great Xia, and opposing invasion is a bloodline inherent in our very being."
"Unfortunately... you heretics have just touched the sore spot in our blood."
"so........"
"Are you going to call your master out now... or should I go find him myself?"
He actually knew about that person's existence!
As soon as Li Jie finished speaking, disbelief filled the eyes of [Key to the Gate].
"Do not you know?"
"That's easy. How about we have someone else come out and talk to me?"
Upon hearing this, Li Jie glanced at the battle situation on the Celestial Venerable's side, and seeing that no one seemed to be tired, he continued calmly.
"If I'm not mistaken, you should have also fused with a portion of the [Chaos]'s divine consciousness... oh wait, and also the [Black Goat]..."
"I don't know whether to call you smart or stupid. Relying on your ability to see and know everything, you actually dared to combine the source power of the other two Three Pillar Gods into one body."
"Do you really think those two are benevolent gods?"
"Hmph." Just after Li Jie finished speaking, [Key to the Gate] let out a disdainful sneer.
He knew all too well what kind of people [Chaos] and [Black Goat] were, but as long as his divine power remained intact, those two remnant souls would never have a chance to rise again.
Add to that the suppression by the Gate of Truth...
Click——!
Wait... what was that sound just now?
Hearing the crisp cracking sound, the Key to the Gate turned its head in confusion, then its pupils suddenly contracted.
The cracked Gate of Truth could no longer withstand the immense power of heaven and earth contained in the Immortal Kneeling with a Sword, and it showed signs of collapsing.
Immediately afterwards, two extremely frenzied thoughts gradually emerged in his mind.
'Hehehehe... [Key to the Gate]... You thief!...'
'Give me back my soul!'
'...my child...'
'You will eventually bear the wrath of that great man!'
'Hehehe... You can't suppress my soul anymore, can you? ... Don't force yourself... Fall into slumber again...'
‘…..’
"roll!!!"
"Get... out of my head!!"
[Key to the Gate] clutched his head in great pain, spinning wildly in the endless deep space.
At the same time, every ten breaths, several fragments would fall gracefully from the Gate of Truth.
Li Jie calmly watched this scene, with the four immortal swords hanging alone behind him.
The shimmering light emanating from the sword resembled a venomous snake poised to strike, waiting for its prey.
"Brother, what's wrong with Him?"
Having just dealt with several mysterious creatures of the type Ke, Lin Qiye paused for a moment after the battle here, and flew over to Li Jie's side with a belly full of questions, asking softly.
Upon seeing the visitor, Li Jie smiled and replied.
"He's probably been driven crazy by Qingyu..."
"Does your hospital have any rooms available? Should we make room for him?"
Hospital?
Make room for the Key to the Gate?
"Yes, it exists, but I don't know if the hospital's rules can suppress the [Key to the Gate] in this state..."
"After all, His strength has exceeded my comprehension." At this point, Lin Qiye glanced helplessly at Li Jie.
"the same as you......."
This was no joke. If you asked him to use a hospital to suppress a supreme god, Lin Qiye would have some confidence.
After all, the laws there can suppress the mentally unstable Nyx and Merlin, who are both true supreme gods.
But the Key to the Gate is different...
His current state really does resemble that of a mentally ill person, but...
His strength has surpassed that of the Supreme Being. If we rashly admit Him into the hospital, and we are unable to suppress His power, it would be like planting an unstable bomb for both myself and the Great Xia Dynasty, which might explode at any time.
so.......
"Brother, no offense, but why don't you just deal with it yourself? Don't let me handle it..."
"If I go too far, it might cause an even bigger disaster..."
Hearing this, Li Jie roughly understood the current situation at the hospital.
Because of his own existence, Lin Qiye estimated that he had not yet mastered even one-tenth of the hospital's capabilities, which was why he was so insecure about the hospital.
"Well, I see."
After speaking, Li Jie turned around and waved his hand. The four immortal swords hanging behind him responded and moved, turning their tips and speeding away.
In no time, they had formed an encirclement, positioned on all four sides of the Key to the Gate.
Zheng——!
The violent cries of swords echoed throughout the heavens and earth.
The Heavenly Dao's Number One Killing Array, enveloped in crimson-gold runes, has reappeared!
"This is your last chance. If no one comes to save you..."
"Ten breaths later, you will perish completely, body and soul."
Li Jie's calm voice rang out like a death knell in [Key to the Gate]'s ears.
After barely suppressing the two restless souls, He raised His head menacingly and stared directly at the calm-looking white-haired boy.
"The Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation... can kill Chaos, but it can't kill me!"
"I am the embodiment of time and space. As long as I alter the timeline around me, what will be killed by the sword formation is merely An Qingyu's physical body!"
"You're right."
Hearing this, Li Jie nodded knowingly.
"If I were to say... you've become disconnected from the time and space around you..."
"And what do you intend to do?"
Disconnected?
Upon hearing this, [Key to the Gate] scoffed disdainfully, curiously examining the crimson-gold sword energy cage that had been custom-made for Him.
"There's no point in probing like this. If you could kill me, you wouldn't be saying all this to me."
"Yes, I really wasn't confident I could kill you just now..."
"But now, that may not be the case..."
"What do you mean?" Upon hearing Li Jie's voice, [Key to the Gate] suddenly felt uneasy.
Just as He was about to discard this physical form and disappear into the river of time, He discovered...
Just as Li Jie said, I have indeed become disconnected from the time and space around me!
He could clearly feel the bone-chilling cold emanating from the crimson-gold runes surrounding his body, and he could also feel the deep-seated fear of real death that penetrated his soul.
"No! You can't do this! If you erase my consciousness, An Qingyu will never be able to come back!"
"He's important to you and to that kid, isn't he?"
"Oh?"
"They've started playing the emotional card."
"This means you are indeed not far from death."
Sensing the panic of the [Key to the Gate], Li Jie gently patted Lin Qiye's shoulder, signaling the latter not to act rashly.
“If An Qingyu can deceive you, she will naturally leave herself a way out.”
As Li Jie spoke, he gestured towards the direction where the Gate of Truth stood.
"Have you noticed that although the Gate of Truth is severely damaged, it has not completely collapsed?"
"Is it because I'm not strong enough to break down your broken door?"
"Wrong, terribly wrong!"
"I merely... severed your connection to the Gate of Truth..."
"As for why I did this, perhaps... he can give you a satisfactory answer?"
As soon as Li Jie finished speaking, a shy voice came from the void.
"Brother Li, I haven't fully figured out the Gate of Truth yet, can't you give me a little more time?"
Upon hearing that familiar voice, not only Lin Qiye, but even the Key to the Gate, who was trapped by the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, froze in place.
"An...Qing...Yu?"
"How can it be!!"
"Alright, alright, I know my name, you don't need to repeat it to me."
After speaking, a soul slowly emerged from the collapsing gray mist.
With each step he took, his figure became more solid.
Once he had completely stepped out of the doorway, his ethereal figure had become a solid entity!
"Your body..."
"Surprised?" Upon hearing the voice of [Key to the Gate], An Qingyu turned around and smiled shyly.
"Physical regeneration is merely the most insignificant of all my abilities."
"All-seeing and all-knowing God, haven't you... noticed?"
At this point, An Qingyu, wearing a white coat, playfully pushed up her thick glasses and looked at the dazed [Key to the Gate] with some pity.
"It's just a physical body; it can't hold me back now. But... it seems you don't even have the right to take over my body anymore..."
"After your death, I will fully seize control of the Gate of Truth and become the new... Key to the Gate!"
boom! !
An Qingyu's calm voice boomed in the ears of the Key to the Gate. In His memory, An Qingyu had indeed stolen a portion of the authority of the Gate of Truth, but it had not attracted His attention.
In His view, this was nothing more than a minor disturbance. Once He awakens from His slumber, all of this will be returned to the body of the sole master of the Gate of Truth, namely the Key to the Gate.
That's wrong...
They're all wrong.......
Did An Qingyu start plotting back then?
"Of course, arrogance is only part of the reason you are heading towards destruction."
"Your biggest mistake was misjudging Brother Li's strength."
At this point, An Qingyu looked at Li Jie somewhat shyly and nodded slightly.
"All my plans are based on the premise that he can suppress everything with ruthless means. Otherwise, the Three Pure Ones alone could not have forced you to this extent."
"Suppress everything?"
"hehe......."
After An Qingyu's voice fell, the [Key to the Gate] trapped in the cage smiled disdainfully.
"That kid is indeed very strong, but once that great one descends, suppressing you will be a matter of minutes."
"I've figured it out. Rather than courting disaster, I'd rather take you all with me..."
"Die together!"
