A great while had passed. The wind ceased and the dust settled. The once-bustling capital had beco a black desert.
Luo Xiu lay motionless in the desert, most of his body buried beneath the black sand. In the utter silence, a warm breeze suddenly swept by. Luo Xiu's fingers twitched. He slowly opened his eyes, struggling to rise from the ground like a tender sprout awakened by the spring wind.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Half-kneeling, Luo Xiu's body trembled as he coughed up several mouthfuls of black blood. He then lifted his head to look at Luo Hao, who was standing before him, planted in the black sand. His battle armor was shattered beyond repair, and his entire body was nearly charred black.
Suddenly, the Green Lotus in the sky once again emitted a light that blanketed the heavens, swiftly covering the entire Henghai Provincial City and activating the Creation Reincarnation Formation. As before, everything was restored, as if ti itself had flowed backward. The black desert transford back into the smoke-filled ruins of the city. Luo Hao, once again unscathed, stood up.
"Tian'er, I've told you. Within this great formation, I am immortal and undefeatable!"
Luo Xiu remained unmoved, as this was within his expectations. How do I break this Creation Reincarnation Formation?
Luo Hao walked unhurriedly over the ruins toward Luo Xiu, stopping a few dozen ters away.
"Tian'er, you are indeed very strong, but I am as good as new, while your strength is spent."
"So, what do you have left to fight with?"
Grasping the sword in his hand tightly, Luo Xiu gritted his teeth and stood upright.
Luo Hao's lips curled into a mocking smile. "The Ancient Ten Emperors consisted of more than just the Tyrant Emperor."
"You've just experienced the power of the Tyrant Emperor. Next, I'll let you witness…"
Before he could finish, a radiant light burst forth from the void behind Luo Xiu, and the Tyrant Emperor's Law Manifestation erged. The sacred yet domineering aura instantly enveloped the heavens and the earth.
Seeing this, Luo Hao's brows knitted slightly, though he showed no surprise. He taunted, "You have no skills of your own? You can only copy the Taoist Arts of others through Holy Blasphemy?"
Hearing this, Luo Xiu gave a faint smile. He knew Luo Hao was trying to get under his skin but couldn't resist retorting, "You have no skills of your own? You can only steal soone else's Green Lotus?"
Luo Hao said, "The fact that I could steal it and make it my own—that is my skill."
Luo Xiu replied, "So, you're allowed to be despicable and unscrupulous, but others are not allowed to act by any ans necessary?"
At this, Luo Hao snorted coldly. "It seems that during your years in the Lower Realm, the only thing you've improved is your verbal sparring."
Luo Xiu watched him with a half-smile. "You can't win a fight, and you can't win a war of words. You really are quite useless."
Luo Hao smiled cryptically and suddenly pulled a writing brush from his Storage Magical Treasure.
"Tian'er, do you recognize this brush?"
Luo Xiu said, "I do. It's the brush you'll use to write your last words."
Luo Hao shook his head and chuckled, then said suddenly, "Wei Qingkuang, the woman you liked in the Upper Realm, the universally acknowledged Empress. This brush was made from a certain... private body hair of hers."
Upon saying this, he brought the tip of the brush to his nose and sniffed lightly, his face filled with rapture.
"Mmm… exquisite. It still retains her scent."
Luo Xiu's expression grew progressively darker. "To ss with my mind, you really are a twisted pervert."
Luo Hao laughed heartily. "What's wrong, feeling uncomfortable? Tian'er, everything you once had is now mine! Your Green Lotus, and the woman you fancy!"
Luo Xiu slowly raised his right hand, making a flicking gesture toward Luo Hao.
"I'm not in the mood to play your passive-aggressive gas, squabbling like children. I've said it before: when I have you under my foot, I'll give you ti to spout your nonsense."
"Also, from the very beginning, you've been desperate to find a sense of superiority in our argunts, bickering with endlessly. Doesn't that just prove how inferior you feel in my presence?"
"It's clear that the man I used to be has beco your shadow, forever pressing you down, keeping you from ever raising your head."
Luo Hao smiled faintly. "Today, I will use this brush to rewrite our lives, and incidentally, to write your last words."
Luo Xiu remained silent, his gaze suddenly sharpening. A droplet of Emperor's Blood, like a blood-red gemstone, hovered at his fingertip.
"Emperor's Blood Breaks Ten Thousand Laws."
The droplet of Emperor's Blood drifted away, emitting no formidable aura, yet it made Luo Hao feel an extre sense of threat. Without hesitation, Luo Hao swung his brush and drew a talisman in the void before him.
"Creation Heaven-shocking Talisman!"
However, the talisman, radiating a mysterious Taoist charm, failed to stop the approaching droplet of Emperor's Blood. Seeing this, Luo Hao's eyes widened as he quickly sidestepped to avoid it, then he let out a long sigh of relief.
"The power might be considerable, but it's slow and can't lock onto . Tian'er, it seems this move of yours is nothing special after all."
CRACK...
CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!
Just as his words fell, a strange, brittle sound echoed between heaven and earth, as if countless invisible porcelain pieces were being forcefully crushed, producing an extrely piercing noise. In a flash, the Creation Reincarnation Formation that enveloped the entire Henghai Provincial City shattered and dispersed, leaving nothing behind.
Shock filled Luo Hao's eyes as he abruptly turned to look at Luo Xiu. Only then did he realize that the droplet of Emperor's Blood Luo Xiu had just flicked was not aid at him but at destroying the Creation Reincarnation Formation.
At the sa mont, the Blue Sky Scrolls across the country began to blur.
「On the outskirts of the provincial city.」
Lin Xiyue asked anxiously, "What's going on? Why can't we see anything?"
Master Ping said, "Luo Xiu just used 'Emperor Blood Breaks Ten Thousand Laws.' He was likely trying to destroy that Samsara Formation, but in the process, he may have also broken the Blue Sky Scroll's sensory formation. That's why it can no longer capture the scene."
Xu Qianqing said, "Then let's go over there!"
Hearing this, everyone exchanged glances and nodded in agreent. They all flew toward Luo Xiu's location.
…
…
「Underneath the Construct Wood.」
Luo Xiu scanned his surroundings, gazing at the falling fragnts of Spirit Light as a slight smile touched his lips. "Without the Creation Reincarnation Formation, you're nothing more than a dog awaiting slaughter before ."
As his words fell, the Tyrant Emperor's Law Manifestation behind him launched an earth-shattering punch at Luo Hao.
Luo Hao gritted his teeth and quickly retreated to create distance, simultaneously swinging his brush in the void to draw an exquisite talisman.
"Even without the Creation Reincarnation Formation, given your current state, eradicating you will be as easy as flipping my hand!"
"Heavenly Seal!"
BOOM!
The Tyrant Emperor's Law Manifestation collided with the Heavenly Seal in the void. But just as the two astonishing Taoist arts exploded, space bizarrely twisted, as if even ti had been frozen.
Luo Xiu coughed up a mouthful of blood and imdiately flew forward.
"Luo Tian's Control over Xuanzhong."
"Fourth Style."
"Ghost God Power!"
In a matter of breaths, Luo Xiu sealed the two erupting Taoist arts with his Ghost God Power, condensing them into a fist-sized orb of light.
Seeing this, Luo Hao had a bad feeling and imdiately floated backward. This is bad.
But in the next mont, a thunderbolt tore a crack in the void behind him. Luo Xiu's right hand reached out from that crack, grabbing the orb and pressing it directly onto Luo Hao's back.
"Luo Hao, if there's a next life, rember to be a good person."
The intense pain in his back sent a wave of despair through Luo Hao. Luo Xiu had the Space-splitting Divine Thunder, so there was no way for him to evade the attack.
"Tian'er, isn't it a bit early to be saying such things?"
"It doesn't matter if I say it in advance."
Luo Xiu's expression remained unchanged as he fiercely kicked Luo Hao into the sky, then vanished into the Divine Thunder Space.
