The hunched-over old man sighed.
As for who would win or lose this battle?
There was likely no more suspense to speak of.
Caught completely off guard, how could a single man stand against a Deity? Even one that had just been born.
It was like a mortal trying to fight a force of nature.
Inside the main house of the Heaven-Reaching Lodge.
"Hahahahaha!!"
Tsuchimikado Kazai threw his head back and roared with laughter, completely ignoring the blood spraying from his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth.
His body was now grievously wounded, leaving him with no strength to fight, but that did nothing to affect the overall situation.
"Control!"
Tsuchimikado Kazai ford a Seal Technique with his hands, and Spell Chains shot into the Divine Altar before him.
The next mont, his consciousness descended into the Shikigami. He had taken control of the Divine Body.
The towering body, the surging, boundless power... it was intoxicating.
The Divine Body was a self-contained system, able to continuously draw upon the natural world for magnetic field replenishnt. Thus, it was completely unaffected by the Shikigami’s previous injuries, erging in its absolute peak state.
It lowered its head, gazing down at the powerful enemy on the ground, who now seed like nothing more than an ant.
"Now, it’s ti to finish you."
The giant Shikigami’s hand closed around the hilt of the Tachi at its waist.
The next mont.
Tsuchimikado Kazai violently drew the Tachi.
VMMMM!!
A searing radiance erupted as an imnse magnetic field surged outward. It was as if a single slash had carved a rising aurora across the ground.
It was an utterly breathtaking sight.
Yi Beidou’s eyes narrowed. He t the massive arc of blade light with a palm strike of his own.
Even when facing a Deity, he showed no signs of retreat.
The Demon Fla blazed. A Celestial Demon pressed its palm to the heavens, demanding an answer.
Celestial Demon Inquiry Dao!!
BOOM!!
However, even this Technique, so adept at withstanding pressure, could not block the imnse, sweeping arc of light.
The arc of light pierced through the protective barrier of Demon Fla, which had nearly solidified, and struck Yi Beidou.
Although there was no physical impact, the attack’s magnetic energy caused his Life Magnetic Field to shudder, forcing Yi Beidou back two steps.
And this was only the beginning.
SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!
Under Tsuchimikado Kazai’s control, the giant Shikigami relentlessly swung its Tachi. Massive arcs of blade light, each seemingly capable of tearing through a skyscraper, flew toward Yi Beidou, leaving him no room to evade.
Under the influence of that terrifying magnetic field, Yi Beidou was forced back step after step. Trickles of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth and from his nose.
"Invincible!"
"Invincible!"
"..."
Seeing this, the Japanese People erupted into fervent cheers all across the country.
Victory was within their grasp!
anwhile, the hearts of Yi Beidou’s supporters sank lower and lower.
And yet, on the battlefield, Yi Beidou’s expression remained unchanged, as tranquil as ever.
’His power is sowhat beyond my expectations. It seems he has connected to the Great Trend, receiving an infusion of power from the masses.’
’An attack of this magnitude, in terms of sheer magnetic field strength, probably surpasses so of the Ancient Ones.’
’Interesting. He actually managed to fabricate a magnetic field that mimics a ’Deity’. Have others attempted such a path before?’
’But, in the end, it’s all just a ’tonic’ for .’
’This is a perfect opportunity to further understand the limits of Celestial Demon Dissolution.’
Yi Beidou’s expression was calm as these thoughts flashed through his mind.
SWISH!!
Just then, another arc of blade light slashed toward him. But in that sa instant...
VMMMM!!
In the Sky, the Seven Stars reversed their course. Their light pierced through the Barrier’s blockade, casting down to envelop Yi Beidou’s form.
Upon his chest, the Seven Stars also reversed, and his entire Life Magnetic field began to flow backward.
Heaven reversed. Earth reversed. Man reversed.
Ascending the Dragon Gate through reversion.
Celestial Demon Dissolution, Third Layer of Reverse Chaos.
This was a tric Yi Beidou had designed to asure the degree to which his Life Magnetic Field reversed during Celestial Demon Dissolution.
The greater the degree of the Life Magnetic Field’s reversal, the stronger the surge of overloaded power—but the greater the subsequent backlash.
A complete reversal ant certain death within a matter of monts.
During his duel with Guan Shan Dayou, he had only used the First Layer of Reverse Chaos.
But now, he had pushed Celestial Demon Dissolution all the way to the Third Layer.
CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!
The sound of popping joints erupted from his body as his fra grew taller. His muscles bulged, his hair stood on end, and his Demon Fla seed to condense into solid amber.
The instant the arc of blade light struck, Yi Beidou unleashed another palm strike.
The Seven Stars spun in reverse within his palm.
Reversed Seven Stars Palm!
The Demon Fla, condensed like solid amber, swept out in a raging tide. The incoming arc of blade light actually shattered on impact.
Tsuchimikado Kazai’s pupils contracted.
BOOM!!
Just then, Yi Beidou’s legs exploded with power, launching him forward like a cannonball.
Mid-sprint, the sound of bones cracking erupted from Yi Beidou’s body once more as his very presence surged to another level.
Fourth Layer of Reverse Chaos.
In an instant, Yi Beidou was standing before the giant Deity.
Fifteen ters tall versus two ters tall—the contrast was jarring.
ROAR!!
Tsuchimikado Kazai directed the giant Shikigami to bring its sword down in a ferocious stab at Yi Beidou, who was at its feet.
But before the blade’s tip could land, Yi Beidou had already struck with his palm.
Demon Fla surged like a tide. Starlight cascaded like a waterfall. Shockwaves radiated in rings. The sound wave was a deafening blast.
From that seemingly minuscule body erupted a terrifying power.
In an instant.
Muraoka Rui and the others froze as if soone had hit a pause button, their eyes wide in disbelief.
