Chapter 426 - 22: Driving Back Chi Songzi
The wind and rain conjured by Chi Songzi were vast, enveloping the entire sky like dark clouds pressing down on a city.
Even Can Gang was amazed by the power within this formidable magic that seemed almost like a natural phenomenon.
No wonder the Lie Mountain Tribe could govern such a vast territory.
The Empress opened her phoenix-like eyes and coldly commanded, "Permanent Barrier!"
Wind and rain also fell within the Five Elements. The Empress kept disrupting the powers within, while the force of Yin Yang and Five Elements transformed into an array-like barrier and clashed with it.
The power of ’Freezing’ turned the raging winds into blocks of ice, the torrential rains into ice crystals.
Yet, the ’Wind and Rain’ magic of Chi Songzi within those winds and rains thawed the frozen storm.
The clash in the sky resounded like two worlds endlessly breaking apart, with thunderous roars echoing amid the collision.
Corrosion, entanglement, collision...
In an instant, the two forces had clashed millions of times.
The ripples of their residual power spread continuously like layers of waves from the point of impact, destroying everything in their path.
Chi Songzi, after all, was a true Tier Ten, and without a river for support, the Empress’s power began to be forced back by Chi Songzi.
Seeing this, Chi Songzi sneered coldly, "It seems your Dao isn’t deep enough, Human Immortal!"
As he was about to call forth the storm to capture the Empress in one go.
Out of nowhere, a pitch-black ’Mountain Range’ slammed towards him.
He was about to dodge away.
’Colorless Realm Divine Power.’
Suddenly.
The world lost its color, as if the hues of the world were stripped away at that moment, gathered upon the distant Empress’s hand.
Chi Songzi felt a force suppressing him, locking all his perceptions and powers tightly within his body.
Making him seem as if he’d reverted to the time before cultivating, when he wasn’t yet a Human Immortal.
"Break!"
Chi Songzi glared fiercely, black hair wildly dancing, using the mana within to forcibly shatter the suppressing power.
But in merely an instant.
The ’Mountain Range’ had already closed in, its speed leaving Chi Songzi no time to evade.
He could only conjure intricate, complex patterns with the power of wind and rain in front of himself, forming a vastly smaller Wind and Rain Realm to shield his chest.
’Boom!’
Chi Songzi’s ’Wind and Rain Realm’ instantly collided with the black ’Mountain Range.’
’Crackling sounds~’
A myriad of shattering noises arose, and the hastily conjured defense magic was shattered by the black mountain range in an instant.
Yet the black mountain range’s momentum didn’t halt, continuing its assault onto Chi Songzi.
’Boom’ exploded an air-burst sound.
A tangible shockwave blew out from the point of collision.
Chi Songzi’s chest seemed struck by a divine mountain.
’Bang’ started to bend and crush.
His figure flew back, leaving traces in the air, before crashing fiercely into one of the giant peaks of the Mufu Mountain Range.
’Boom!’
Countless stones erupted, the mountain body shook.
Chi Songzi embedded into the mountain in a ’big’ shape, looking pale.
He spat out a mouthful of blood.
His eyes long lost their former calm, replaced by some surprise.
He finally understood why Gonggong had been captured before; facing these two together, who could contend?
Chi Songzi was aware of Jiu Li Tribe’s Tier Ten.
Can Gang himself was from the Jiu Li Tribe, known second only to Chi You for his physical combat.
Originally, cultivators were best at dealing with shamans like Can Gang by keeping distance and casting spells.
But now there’s this Human Immortal from an unknown Dao Lineage helping Chi You.
Can Gang’s form erupted; his twin pythons roared like Heavenly Dragons, lunging to bite Chi Songzi.
The Empress simultaneously deployed ’Infinite Void’ to envelop Chi Songzi.
Chi Songzi’s mind filled with endless information, yet as a cultivator and Tier Ten, he instantly processed it.
Escaping from the region ’Infinite Void’ enveloped, he smelled its terribly foul odor.
Two gaping mouths had already sealed his path forward and backward.
"Nine Heavens Gang Wind!"
"Nine Nether Rain!"
Chi Songzi roared, furiously squeezing out his inner power to unleash it further.
The tempest he originally controlled grew ever more fierce, every gust capable of destroying a mountain.
The torrential rain emitted a dissolving aura; even a touch caused the mountains to start melting.
Savagely the wind lashed, endlessly the rain fell.
The entire world seemed plunged into an apocalypse.
Can Gang’s arms which transformed into giant pythons began to cry out in pain amidst the storm, twisting as they roared.
"Damn it!"
Can Gang’s face turned pale.
Hurriedly retracting his pythons, these had fused with him completely.
If the pythons suffered irreversible damage, he too would suffer correspondingly.
And all around the space fissures appeared, a horrifying vortex sweeping out from the sky containing countless rain.
Even the Empress frowned.
This guy controls Immortal Technique far better than Gonggong.
At least, she hadn’t seen Gonggong create a Space Rift; the space here is much firmer than Blue Star.
Not only the space but the mountain stones and trees too.
If Blue Star’s space is water, then here it’s metal.
The hardness difference is immense.
On Blue Star, even she could casually create space rifts, but not in the Great Wilderness.
Though its power hasn’t diminished, the surrounding destruction isn’t as simple.
Even Little Pu mentioned space transfer is difficult here.
Yet Chi Songzi managed to create a Space Rift; truly cannot underestimate them.
Their power usage seems crude, yet in crucial moments, they accomplish great feats.
"Big Sister, there’s a space fluctuation; he’s going to escape!"
At this moment.
Little Pu’s voice echoed in the Empress’s mind.
The Empress’s phoenix eyes narrowed, her voice cold, "If you escape, all your soldiers below will be captured!"
But Chi Songzi ignored it, disappearing in the tornado the next moment.
Finally, the world-ending storm gradually faded.
Can Gang saw the now-empty sky, his face grim.
He had hoped to capture and even slay another Tier Ten.
He believed pairing with the Commander might apprehend him, yet surprisingly he escaped.
Even using the soldiers of the mountain below as leverage did nothing to sway him.
Who’d have thought Chi Songzi could unleash such power at the last moment?
Knowing the ’Ancient Steel Python’ he’s fused with, its defense can withstand Human Immortal magic, its might like moving mountains.
Yet within that storm, the harm suffered by the Ancient Steel Python exceeded all prior.
If Can Gang stayed inside longer.
He himself would be gravely wounded.
