"He...he must eat me!"
"Even without the power of time to suppress him, he will definitely eat me!"
An Ya was frightened again.
Because of that look, and because of that sentence, 'The devouring energy increases tenfold'...
You know, before this, when the Five Elements Emperor had not yet revived, he was not absolutely sure that he could defeat Xu Chong .
Rather than finding a way out of the impasse, letting the remaining half of the body enter the realm was actually just a last-ditch attempt because he was unwilling to let such a big piece of fat meat slip away.
If Xu Chong improves fast enough, he will make a fortune and leave, retreating just before Xu Chong is promoted to the first-class rank.
If Xu Chong improves slowly, then naturally everything will be his.
No matter how you calculate it, you won’t lose.
But that was before.
Now, Xu Chong has reached the second-class status, but not only has he not gained any benefits, his strength has declined instead of increased.
As one thing grows stronger, the other loses strength, and his confidence becomes even smaller.
"No, I can't bet! I can't afford it!"
An Ya's mind was in turmoil. "Even if the Five Elements Emperor has no more strength left, and will soon turn back into a corpse, that little ghost is no longer the same little ghost..."
"As long as he wants, he can definitely be promoted to the first level by devouring."
"Either devour this space, or..."
"Devour me!"
When he thought of this, An Ya no longer had any hope of luck, and there was only one thought left in his mind.
Walk.
Go quickly.
The faster you go, the better. The farther you go, the better.
"No, don't rush!"
An Ya suppressed his impulse and forced himself to calm down. "Time control has been ineffective for a while. The Five Elements Emperor should have accumulated some strength. If I leave now, I will most likely be controlled by him again."
"Although this control won't last long, and it shouldn't be enough for the little devil to completely devour me, it will undoubtedly arouse their vigilance."
"What if, what if they have other means, such as strengthening the blockade of out-of-bounds or speeding up the swallowing speed?"
"We can't be unprepared!"
In this desperate situation, An Ya's wisdom, which was not enough to begin with, was put to good use. Not only did he quickly analyze the situation, he also made a decisive choice: "I will wait! Wait until the next time the power of time expires!"
Just as I made up my mind, a force of delay suddenly descended.
Or the authority of time.
However, unlike the previous two times when his mind was completely stilled, this time the power of time was slightly weaker, allowing An Ya's thoughts to continue running at an extremely slow speed.
At the same time, the voice from the sky came down again.
"I don't have much strength left. I can't suppress him for another quarter of an hour."
The Five Elements Heavenly Emperor spoke in a serious tone, "At most half a quarter of an hour. After half a quarter of an hour, I will completely cease to exist, and you will have to face it alone... Forget it, we have agreed to end it here. You should take advantage of this half a quarter of an hour to escape. The farther you run, the better. Although you can't save the Five Spirit Realm, it at least leaves hope for the truth."
"Half a minute?"
Xu Chong's face became serious. He thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry, Heavenly Emperor. Although half a quarter of an hour is not enough for me to advance to the first level, it is enough for me to advance a lot. At the same time, this evil demon will be weakened a lot... After half a quarter of an hour, I should be able to deal with him on my own."
"Are you sure?"
The Five Elements Heavenly Emperor was surprised. "You know, in half an hour, no matter how strong you are, you will only be a second-class person, and no matter how weak he is, he will only be a first-class person."
“Because of authority and talent.”
Xu Chong smiled confidently, narrowed his eyes, and looked greedily at An Ya below: "If I were a little stronger, this evil demon with a pitifully low grasp of the rules of space would probably not even be able to escape from me."
"Is that so..."
The Five Elements Emperor's eyes shone, and he made a prompt decision: "There is no time to lose, I will do my best to help you... If you can succeed, don't forget what you promised me."
"Emperor Tian, ​​please rest assured."
Xu Chong straightened his chest and said, "Recovering the truth is the lifelong destiny of every real individual. Since the Five Spirit Realms are also real, I have the obligation to protect them."
"That's best."
The figure in the sky waved his sleeves and said, "Go quickly."
Xu Chong's figure flashed and turned into a void form again, crossing the space and covering An Ya again.
In just a few moments, the conversation, expressions, and movements between the two were all very natural.
"He's also a veteran actor."
Xu Chong thought to himself.
He firmly believed that even if he were in other people's shoes, he would still be caught, not to mention Nirvana, whose wisdom was already lacking.
"Now it all depends on how the Emperor of Heaven handles it, and how Anya reacts."
"It doesn't matter even if I'm still unwilling. As long as he retreats into the Great Ruins and keeps some distance from the Five Spirits Realm, with my current second-class status, I may not be able to deal with him."
"But if that happens, I won't be able to take into account the changes in the Five Spirit Realms. What if too much energy has been extracted and there is a danger of collapse..."
"It's better if he gets scared away."
Just as he was thinking this, Xu Chong's ethereal body was suddenly pushed away by an extremely powerful force.
He only had time to see a black shadow flash by, and then An Ya's presence completely disappeared from his perception range.
--Bang!
Almost at the same time when An Ya disappeared, a loud noise was heard from the gate, accompanied by violent vibrations, as if the entire space was shaken.
"Don't let the evil demon escape!!"
Voices of shock, anger, and shame came down from the sky.
Almost at the same time, Xu Chong and Five Elements Heavenly Emperor rushed towards the boundary gate together.
Unfortunately it's too late.
With the first impact, most of the exit blockade was shattered. With the second impact, An Ya didn't have to use any strength at all and he passed through directly.
When Xu Chong and Five Elements Emperor appeared in the gap, they only had time to see a vast gray fog surging wildly towards the distance.
“Damn it!!”
Xu Chong switched back to a flesh and blood body, his face full of unwillingness and eagerness to try.
If an arm hadn't blocked his way in advance, he would have chased out by now.
"Don't chase."
The Five Elements Heavenly Emperor also looked grim. "After leaving the Five Spirits Realm, my strength will be lost faster. Even if I catch up with him, I won't have much strength left. Then you can only face him alone."
"this……"
Xu Chong gritted his teeth for a moment, and finally admitted helplessly: "My current strength is not enough to deal with him alone."
"That's it."
The Five Elements Heavenly Emperor sighed, "Although I have wasted an opportunity for you to be promoted to the first-class status, the Great Ruins is so large that except for the Five Spirit Realms, the rest is nothingness. As long as you are careful, there is no shortage of objects to devour."
"That's true."
Xu Chong nodded and his expression looked better.
The two stopped talking and just looked quietly at the ruins outside the gap.
After a moment, the trace of the gray fog completely disappeared in the distance.
But the two of them still didn't move.
It wasn't until nearly an incense stick of time had passed that the Five Elements Heavenly Emperor suddenly laughed and said, "It should be fine."
"call……"
Xu Chong let out a long sigh, then turned to look at the Five Elements Emperor with a questioning look.
"Don't worry, it's only 30%."
The Five Elements Emperor smiled and nodded.
"That's good."
Xu Chong thought thoughtfully, "At least most of them still have the opportunity to try to practice ."
Thirty percent naturally refers to the life span that has been taken away from people in the Five Spirits Realm.
"However, I'm afraid this world can't last much longer."
As he spoke, the Five Elements Heavenly Emperor looked towards the southeast.
Looking from here, you can't see anything unusual with the naked eye.
But as the master of the Five Spirits Realm, he could clearly sense that the entire mountain range where the Water Spirit Holy Land was located was covered with dense and huge cracks.
It is very likely that it will completely collapse in the next moment.
Xu Chong saw something from the Five Elements Heavenly Emperor's expression, and his heart tightened: "There is no time to lose, I will immediately continue to merge the two realms and try to reduce the casualties..."
——Boom!!!
Before Xu Chong could finish his words, Five Elements Heavenly Emperor suddenly punched out, knocking him flying with a high-pitched buzzing sound like the sound of a bell.
After being promoted to the second-class rank, both of Xu Chong’s forms were greatly improved.
In terms of the flesh and blood body, it has truly achieved the meaning of "Let the heavens and the earth destroy you, I will remain indestructible."
It seemed that even a Five Elements Emperor of the first rank could not penetrate this outrageous defense.
But Xu Chong couldn't be happy at all.
Because the power of the Five Elements Heavenly Emperor's punch, although stronger than the second-class rank, definitely did not reach the level of the first-class rank.
What does this mean?
This means that this punch was not a 'sneak attack', but a 'rescue'!
rescue?
You know, An Ya has already left.
In the current Five Spirit Realm, let alone allowing a first-class person to be rescued by this method, there is not even a being who can harm Xu Chong, a second-class person.
unless……
An Ya didn't leave at all!!!
When he thought of this, Xu Chong's mind was shaken wildly, and he tried desperately to stop his body from retreating, while looking at the Five Elements Heavenly Emperor.
really.
After throwing a punch, the Five Elements Heavenly Emperor immediately retracted his hand to gather strength, then fiercely threw a second punch.
However.
It was clear that the punch had the power to destroy the world when it was accumulating strength, but after it was thrown, it did not cause any movement.
No sound, no vibration.
It was like hitting the air.
"!!!"
Xu Chong's pupils shrank to the size of needle points.
Because he understood that it would be impossible for such a powerful force to be released without any ripples.
Unless the entire picture, the heaven and the earth, are fake.
"Fraudulent authority..."
Xu Chong uttered these words in his mind with great difficulty.
Almost at the same time, an extremely strange and arrogant laugh sounded out of nowhere.
“Hahahahahahahahaha…”
"You don't think I was really scared away by you, do you?"
"ah?"
At this point, all disguises were shattered like a layer of transparent glass.
The picture is still the same picture, even the angle and distance are exactly the same.
The only difference was a huge black shadow that was several thousand feet tall.
Dark shore.
It was also proven that the punch from the Five Elements Heavenly Emperor did not hit the air, but instead collided with a giant gray fist that was many times larger than his entire body.
"How is it possible..."
Xu Chong was in a state of extreme trance.
He has always been cautious, and he has spent such a period of time in the Tianxuan Realm, full of intrigues and deceptions. How could he possibly overlook such a crucial factor as "fraudulent authority"?
It is no exaggeration to say that from beginning to end, he was always paying attention to the changes on the panel.
This panel, no matter how you look at it, is higher than the rules and authority of Daxu. It will definitely not be disturbed and will not display wrong information.
As long as he did not gain any divine essence from consuming it, or if the speed of gaining divine essence showed a noticeable fluctuation, he would immediately realize that he had been 'deceived' and then wake up.
But the problem is that from beginning to end, the income of Shenyuan on the panel was normal.
Apart from the slow growth rate due to the increase or decrease of one thing while the other decreases, there are no abnormal fluctuations.
In other words, An Ya's deception began only after he broke through Xu Chong's ethereal body and stopped devouring him.
"Breaking through the boundary is an illusion, the effect of fraudulent authority."
Xu Chong came to the conclusion, and his mood plummeted. "Not only did the real him not leave, he was even hiding nearby, waiting for an opportunity to strike... How could a void being have such a mind?!"
Ever since he learned that there is a huge IQ gap between reality and nothingness, he has been somewhat contemptuous.
Because smart people can defeat the strong with the weak, can survive in desperate situations, and can make a comeback.
But now, a nothingness whose specialty was "stupidity" actually crushed him and the Five Elements Emperor in terms of IQ.
The strength was crushed, and the IQ was also crushed...
Xu Chong saw no hope of winning.
However, suddenly, a strange voice appeared and overturned the speculation that 'An Ya is very smart'.
"I never thought that after such a long time, you and I would be able to meet again."
A lowest-level gray-skinned monster stood at the edge of the gap, staring at the Five Elements Emperor with its eyes erect, speaking in a human voice.
Outside the gap was an endless expanse of gray fog.
"!!!"
Xu Chong felt cold all over.
An Ya's arm has not been retracted yet, and his huge body represents that all bodies are indeed gathered together.
so……
Another first-class nothingness? !
"Hantian..."
The Five Elements Emperor's face turned completely ugly, and a trace of despair flashed in his eyes.
"oh?"
The gray monster's eyes were filled with surprise and pride. "Why, didn't your time authority see that I would come?"
"Oh no."
"You are just a corpse. Even if you can still use the power of time, you only have two simple abilities: stagnation and acceleration. You cannot observe the future at all."
“Tsk tsk tsk…”
"Finally, you finally lost to me."
"Weren't you very arrogant after Shanwu's rebellion?"
"You also said to Daxu that if I dare to devour any real individual, you will definitely find me and imprison me completely."
"At that time, you probably never thought that this day would come, and never thought about the final truth..."
"They will be completely exterminated because of me!"
“Hahahahahaha…”
This laughter was no different from a human's, and was much more normal than Anya's weird style.
But the arrogance inside is exactly the same.
In response to this, the Five Elements Emperor did not respond, but his expression and eyes kept changing, as if he was thinking about a countermeasure.
The Lord of Frost Sky didn't care, and was not in a hurry to take action. Instead, he looked at Xu Chong with interest: "You are the virtual and real person, right?"
"Who are you?"
Xu Chong asked, his face calm.
Faced with two first-class figures, he became indifferent.
Because he couldn't see any hope and couldn't find any opportunity.
The only thing we can do is to face it calmly.
Waiting for possible changes.
Or death.
