Lin Tang endured his grave injuries, neither fleeing nor fighting back wildly. And for what? All to capture these two bastards in one fell swoop and prevent their escape!
Under normal circumstances, even if he went all-out with his ultimate moves to defeat them, the two Holy Masters could have easily escaped. This was especially true for the Langhuan Holy Master, who wielded the Shura Sword and could teleport thousands of kiloters in an instant. Once they ran, how could he possibly give chase?
Therefore, Lin Tang had laid out his plans in advance, even having his Dharma Body take Xiao Xuanye and Jiang Mulu away first to avoid them being accidentally killed in the ensuing explosion.
After such careful planning, if I don't succeed in one go, wouldn't I just be making a fool of myself?
With an earth-shattering boom, the entire world within view was filled with righteous, overwhelmingly powerful thunder. The Destruction Talisman—a bane to all evil energy! Its own explosive power, inherent with lightning, was terrifyingly imnse.
Instantly, Li Jianquan, who had been a considerable distance away, didn't even have ti to grunt before he was vaporized into nothingness. Not even a sliver of bone remained—a truly tragic end.
Next was the Blessed Life Holy Master. This seemingly invincible Martial Arts Battle God already had his once-indestructible Divine Soul half-destroyed by the Shura Sword, and he had expended a vast amount of energy in the chaotic battle. Now, caught unable to dodge and forced to take the blast head-on… could he withstand it? Not a chance! His physical body was imdiately blasted apart, erupting into a massive cloud of blood mist.
"AHHH, LONG TIANJI, YOU MAY HAVE WON THIS TI, BUT NEXT TI, NEXT TI I WILL CLAIM YOUR LIFE!" he roared with resentnt.
The blood mist that was his body was further disintegrated by the lightning, a faint scent of roasting flesh wafting through the air before he, too, was reduced to nothingness. However, a peculiar talisman suddenly appeared within his Divine Soul—a life-saving trump card left to him by the mysterious entity he served. As light flowed from the talisman, the Blessed Life Holy Master's Divine Soul, carrying his consciousness, mysteriously vanished. He had successfully escaped!
As for the Langhuan Holy Master, his Shura Sword was brimming with evil energy, which ground against the Destruction Talisman. If the Destruction Talisman had been a re single-use item with no lasting power, it truly wouldn't have been able to damage the core of the Shura Sword. However, the materials "gifted" by the Mysterious Maiden were simply too potent, allowing the talisman to be used repeatedly.
Under the continuous barrage, no matter how powerful the Shura Sword was, it couldn't hold out. After all, the "energy" it contained was just a single wisp that the Blood Ancestor had painstakingly transmitted across a vast distance; it was not a limitless supply. As one waned, the other waxed. With a mournful cry, the sword's evil light scattered, and it plumted to the ground.
Without the Shura Sword's protection, the Langhuan Holy Master's personal strength was even less than the Blessed Life Holy Master's. Since the Blessed Life Holy Master was obliterated, how could he be an exception?
"LONG TIANJI! I WILL BE BACK!"
Fortunately, he also had a life-saving item within his Divine Soul, a gift from the Blood Ancestor. Although his physical body was destroyed—a massive loss—he at least had a chance to make a coback…
AWOO!
Suddenly, the shriveled flesh ball that was the Lord of Gluttony bit at him the very instant he was about to vanish.
"AH!" the Langhuan Holy Master scread as the Lord of Gluttony viciously tore off and swallowed a large chunk of his Divine Soul.
"Lord of Gluttony, just you wait! The Blood Ancestor will not let you off!"
The Lord of Gluttony smacked his lips, still wanting more. "The Divine Soul of a Martial Arts Battle God really does taste better! Hmph, so what if it's the Blood Demon? You think I'm afraid of Him?"
He rolled over and scurried back to Lin Tang's side, saying in a fawning, sycophantic tone, "Look, you could say I made a contribution, right? So you won't kick out, huh?"
Lin Tang couldn't be bothered with him. He flashed to the ground and pulled the inert Shura Sword from the charred rock. The power of the Destruction Talisman was simply incredible. For several miles in every direction, not a single blade of grass survived. Everything was scorched black, like a post-apocalyptic wasteland.
He reached out, retrieving the now-powerless Destruction Talisman, and then examined the Shura Sword. Although it was heavily damaged and completely devoid of its evil aura, the material itself was incredibly resilient. Not a single crack had ford.
Not bad, not bad. Once I get back, I'll extract the materials and fuse them into my flying sword. It will definitely raise my flying sword's grade to the next level!
Lin Tang smiled with satisfaction. It couldn't be helped; he was poor. He could only pick and choose from his various spoils of war, patching things together.
"Did... did we win?"
"To think Long Tianji had such a terrifying final move... What kind of treasure was that? Its explosive power was fearso..."
The cara Xiao Xuanye had left behind was destroyed, but Yan Qinghe and the others still had satellites. The image was blurry, not as high-definition as the cara feed, but it was still enough to monitor the battle in real-ti. What they saw left them utterly shocked and deeply moved.
They never expected Long Tianji could turn the tables like this. How many more trump cards did he have?
"Good, good, good!" Supre Jiangshan's face broke into a smile. On one hand, he was happy that Lin Tang had won and the crisis facing humanity was resolved. On the other hand, his precious daughter had also survived; she hadn't needed to sacrifice her life to help Long Tianji bolster the nation's destiny.
"How is it? What happened? What? The State Preceptor eliminated those two great enemies? He had the last laugh? That's wonderful!" Jiang Mulu was overjoyed when she heard this from Xiao Xuanye. She imdiately asked him to take her back so she could reunite with Lin Tang's true body.
As for Lin Tang's Dharma Body, its injuries had been too severe. Just after delivering Jiang Mulu and Xiao Xuanye to the Heavenly chanism Martial Alliance, it had plunged headfirst into the lava without saying another word to her. As a fire-attribute Star Core Spirit Embryo, as long as it wasn't completely destroyed, it could eventually be reborn from the flas, no matter how grievous its wounds.
Xiao Xuanye was about to comply, but then he froze, a stunned look on his face.
