Taiqing Laozi couldn't withstand this terrifying pressure and retreated repeatedly with an expression of disbelief on his face: "How is it possible? He was blown into pieces, how could he still break through?" His voice was full of shock and confusion, as if he had seen something extremely incredible.
"So what if you've broken through? We can still take your life!" Yuanshi Tianzun's expression was solemn, yet frantic. He waved the Pangu Banner and rushed towards the Devouring Emperor. His eyes were filled with determination, as if he was determined to fight the Devouring Emperor to the death.
"I'll take your life while you've just broken through!" The Pangu Banner unleashed a blast of Heaven-shattering Sword Intent. This terrifying sword intent, wrapped in boundless divine thunder and terrifying gale force winds, obliterated everything in the void ahead, intent on slaying the Devouring Emperor once again. Like a dazzling bolt of lightning, the Heaven-shattering Sword Intent pierced the void and hurtled towards the Devouring Emperor.
Taiqing Laozi also instantly came to his senses, knowing full well that he could not allow the Devouring Emperor to recover peacefully. He once again cast the technique of One Qi Transformed into Three Purities, and three clones appeared simultaneously, pouring all their spiritual energy into the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Pagoda. The nine-story tower instantly shone brightly, unleashing an unparalleled pressure.
The nine-story pagoda quickly transformed into a giant sword of heaven and earth. Its terrifying sword intent, like a bolt of lightning tearing through the sky, slashed fiercely towards the Devouring Emperor. The sword flashed with a sharp light, as if it was about to cut the Devouring Emperor in two.
"You are not qualified to kill me. Look at my ultimate formation!" The Devouring Emperor roared, and the six wings behind him flapped rapidly, causing the entire endless void to riot.
Mysterious runes flew into the void like meteors, frantically gathering all the power within a radius of hundreds of millions of miles. Those runes radiated a mysterious light, as if containing the mysteries of heaven and earth.
A terrifying energy storm condensed above his head, forming a massive celestial coffin. The coffin emanated a primordial aura that shook the heavens and the earth. Around the coffin, terrifying black holes continuously sank and floated in the void, like an endless abyss, emitting a terrifying aura that swallowed everything.
Under the control of the Devouring Emperor, the Sky Coffin roared out. It first firmly blocked the Pangu Banner's incoming sword intent, then immediately blocked the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang giant sword. The light generated by the collision illuminated the entire void, as dazzling as the sun.
The terrifying blast of air created by the collision, like a raging tsunami, sent Emperor Shi, Yuanshi Tianzun, and Taiqing Laozi flying. The three of them tumbled uncontrollably through the air like kites with their strings cut, their clothes ripped to shreds by the blast.
After they regained their composure, they stared at each other. The atmosphere was so tense that you could hear a pin drop.
"Hahahaha! You want to kill me? Let me show you how I can kill you back!" Although the Devouring Emperor looked disheveled, he was in high spirits. His eyes were filled with confidence and dominance, as if he had already secured victory.
He quickly steadied himself and continued to control the Emperor's Sky Coffin, charging towards Yuanshi Tianzun and Taiqing Laozi, while shouting, "Hunyuan Burial Saint!"
With the Devouring Emperor's furious roar, the very world seemed to tremble. The immense Heavenly Coffin slowly opened, and an aura of utter violence, like a raging flood bursting through a dam, instantly swept across the entire prehistoric world with overwhelming force. This terrifying pressure, like an invisible giant hand, filled people with involuntary fear, as if the entire world would be plunged into an endless abyss of darkness under the ravages of this aura.
The lid of the Heavenly Coffin was like a towering mountain, soaring towards Yuanshi Tianzun and Taiqing Laozi. Wherever it passed, everything was reduced to dust by this terrifying force, and everything was destroyed in an instant, leaving no trace.
Yuanshi Tianzun and Taiqing Laozi dared not be careless. Their faces suddenly changed, and they hurriedly cut out a black hole in the void. At this moment, they were in a panic and didn't care where the black hole led to. They just wanted to escape this deadly attack as quickly as possible, and rushed into the black hole in a hurry.
The terrifying Heavenly Burial Saint Coffin fell heavily, instantly shattering the void within a radius of billions of miles into pieces, leaving it in a mess. Unfortunately, it still failed to bury Yuanshi Tianzun and Taiqing Laozi under the coffin.
The Devouring Emperor gazed at the shattered void and cursed, "Damn it! You're running so damn fast!" He panted slightly, then, breathlessly, retracted the formation. The terrifying Burial Saint Heavenly Coffin slowly closed its lid and, like a giant beast returning to its lair, swiftly flew back into the rune-constructed formation, merging with it and gradually disappearing.
The fierce battle unfolded like a magnificent painting, clearly projected onto the Purple Sky Palace. Nuwa and Tongtian, originally filled with worry, finally felt relieved when they saw the Devouring Emperor successfully handle the crisis.
However, the two Buddhist saints and Xumizi who were confronting them had solemn expressions on their faces. They had never expected that despite such careful planning, they still failed to kill the Devouring Emperor in the end, but instead allowed him to break through to the middle stage of the Saint Emperor.
At this time, Emperor Shi had no idea what had happened in Zixiao Palace. He was extremely anxious and quickly rushed towards the direction where Lin Niuniu and others were, shouting loudly, his voice resounding like thunder: "Niuniu, the emperor is here, you must hold on!" His voice spread very far, as if it could penetrate the chaotic void.
Zhang Qiming, who was originally intimidated by Lin Niuniu's powerful aura, no longer hesitated when he heard the voice of Emperor Shi, and hurriedly ordered: "Let's retreat!" After that, he ignored the great master Xuandu and others, grabbed Kunpeng and Lu Ya, turned around and fled.
Although Nan Ji Xian Weng and others were worried about the safety of Yuanshi Tianzun and Taiqing Laozi, they did not dare to stay here. They turned into streams of light and rushed towards the Thirty-third Heaven.
Not long after they left, Emperor Shi arrived in a hurry. From a distance, he saw the wounded Lin Niuniu and the shattered void.
"Niuniu, are you okay?" As soon as the Devouring Emperor finished speaking, Lin Niuniu could no longer hold on. Her body softened and she fell straight down. Her last attack had already exhausted all her strength.
Seeing this, the Devouring Emperor rushed over like a flash of black lightning, gently picked her up, and flew towards Neptune. Before they reached Neptune, they encountered Shen Xingze and his warship.
"Senior Devouring Emperor!" Shen Xingze shouted hurriedly as he saw the Devouring Emperor's massive figure from the warship. Bai Zhiwen and Ruiying also stood nearby, looking towards the Devouring Emperor.
"Let's go back first, Niu Niu is injured!" The Devouring Emperor turned into a stream of light and continued to fly forward.
