Chapter 2226 The Ancient God's Desperate Struggle
With a furious roar, Mi Tian realized that there was no reasoning with this stubborn fellow, and the Dragon God was as powerful as ever, just like in ancient times. Seeing that defeat was inevitable if things continued this way, its body suddenly shrank, shrinking from a divine eagle into a ball of light the size of a millstone, its red light blazing brightly.
However, the Dragon God was extremely experienced in battle. As soon as Mi Tian's body shrank, its dragon body immediately dispersed into black mist, instantly enveloping the ball of light. Thousands of chains emerged from the mist, tightly binding Mi Tian.
The deafening clang of metal clashing filled the air like a chilling prison.
The Dragon God had been preparing for this plan for many years, and of course he had to consider all the contingency plans for Mitian's defeat and leave room for maneuver.
Before completely enveloping the sky, it also shook off all the golden light.
It did not intend for the Red General to participate in the subsequent battles.
Less than half a breath later, a loud bang came from the black mist, startling everyone in the surrounding area. The rumbling sound carried for miles.
Not only was the entire sea of clouds shaken by the shockwave, but even Xu Shichu, who was watching, was dazed and instinctively covered his ears.
The cocoon formed by the black mist suddenly expanded outwards, and a faint red light shone through.
Xu Shichu murmured, "So even the Great Heavenly Demon self-destructs his divine soul?"
However, the black mist anticipated the enemy's move and stubbornly enveloped the earth-shattering explosion, preventing it from causing further damage to General Red's consciousness.
He Lingchuan watched intently: "Mi Tian is determined to fight to the death and kill General Hong!"
In a contest of raw power, Mi Tian knew he couldn't defeat the Dragon God. The Dragon God had already laid a trap, gaining a significant initial advantage. Moreover, having been meticulously plotted against by such a formidable opponent for decades, and with his most powerful divine essence rendered useless, what chance did he have of winning?
But don't forget, the battle will take place in General Red's sea of consciousness!
Destroying General Red's sea of consciousness is easier than defeating the Dragon God, right? Although the laws of heaven and earth have changed, and self-destructing the divine soul no longer has a wide-ranging destructive effect, that is in relation to the external reality.
With the immense power of Mitian's divine soul, destroying this sea of consciousness should have been an easy task.
With General Red dead, even the Dragon God could no longer contain it.
Mitian has gone to great lengths over the years to prepare for his true form's arrival today. Once this physical form is damaged, his return to the mortal realm will be a distant prospect, and subsequent plans will be impossible to implement. Moreover, the Holy Venerable Lingxu in heaven will cause him trouble.
But nothing is more important than escaping right now.
Unfortunately, the devil is always one step ahead, but the righteous are ten steps ahead, and the Dragon God always had to guard against it.
Lightning flashed and thunder roared within the black mist cocoon, as if a thunderstorm had erupted. The two also saw red light crackling and flashing within the lightning.
Clearly, the self-destruction of the vast expanse was exceptionally powerful. General Red alone could not possibly contain it.
Even so, the black mist did not dissipate and stubbornly enveloped Mitian.
Xu Shichu added, "It seems Mi Tian is doomed..."
Before the words were finished, the black mist cocoon suddenly contracted again.
It seemed as if something in the middle was unleashing a powerful suction force, drawing all the mist in the sea of consciousness towards it.
Jin Guang was no exception.
Xu Shichu was shocked, his heart leaping into his throat: "Ah, this!"
"First an explosion, then a massive absorption—Mitian really had a backup plan." Such a powerful figure was naturally unwilling to surrender and die. Seeing that the previous explosive force was blocked by the black mist, it immediately switched to its next counterattack method.
The Dragon God dared to take on all the attacks from Mi Tian, so he must have been seriously injured in the explosion. Unexpectedly, Mi Tian had this trick up his sleeve, and the black mist was sucked in, almost causing the mist cocoon to collapse.
After Mitian self-destructed, it left behind a huge black hole that frantically sucked everything in its path!
The next second, the entire sea of consciousness surged with waves, and billowing black mist flew into the sky, resolutely heading to the battlefield.
Large swaths of black mist were sucked in, and large swaths of black mist came to replenish it.
Clearly, the Dragon God had also mobilized all his power, holding nothing back.
"What's going on?!" Xu Shichu was covered in cold sweat. "Even after Mi Tian self-destructed, he still possesses such powerful divine energy! What do we do now?"
After an immortal self-destructs, nothing is ever left. A being that once surpassed even the Great Heavenly Demon truly transcends the ordinary.
If it weren't for the Dragon God's presence, even a True Immortal would feel despair facing such an opponent.
He Lingchuan murmured, "Ancient God of Death should have some outstanding features."
The distant sky was a deep blue, but the lake was swirling with clouds. This magnificent scene stirred his heart and left an unforgettable impression on him.
Unfortunately, only two people could witness this scene.
This great battle has reached a point where it must be fought to the death.
If the black mist defeats Mitian, the latter will perish on the spot, and from then on, there will be no more ancient gods of death in either realm.
If Mitian absorbs all the black mist, then General Hong's sea of consciousness will also be destroyed, and Zhong Shengguang and the Dragon God's painstaking efforts will be ruined.
Both sides are in a bind, and must fight to the death!
At times like these, it all comes down to who has the stronger foundation, the deeper cultivation, and the more thorough understanding of the laws!
While watching the battle in the sea of consciousness conjured by the Great Evolution Heavenly Pearl, He Lingchuan also directed the Panlong Army to launch a final fierce attack on the Bega Army, a classic example of multitasking.
Even if he cared deeply about General Red and the Dragon God, and about the outcome of the war between gods and demons, he couldn't ignore the real-world battles.
The three great gods suffered heavy losses, the Golden Horn Clan was almost completely wiped out, and the morale of Bega's army was in turmoil.
Wu Xianxian, realizing that the situation was hopeless, decisively ordered the retreat and withdrawal from Xianling Lake.
Without waiting for Mi Tianxia's order, He Lingchuan dispatched several deputy generals to pursue them.
With the ambush at Xianling Lake a success, Wu Xianxian's reinforcements had to withdraw, leaving the Bega army in the central and western parts of Xiluo temporarily without support.
The army retreated like a receding tide, leaving behind only corpses scattered on the ground.
Hong Qixing, a man from Xiluo, led his people to surrender to the Panlong Army, kneeling down with unusual decisiveness.
At this moment, He Lingchuan was looking up at the sky.
The thick clouds gradually dispersed, revealing a dark red sky with a slight ripple. This confirmed He Lingchuan's deduction—
That was a sea of red in Dafanghu.
The pot is probably overloaded again.
Fortunately, the battle in General Red's sea of consciousness continued without interruption.
Soon, the skinny man shouted, "General, we've found the Golden Horned Demon General!"
"They're here." Upon hearing this, He Lingchuan spurred his horse and rode off.
General Golden Horn lay under a large tree, bleeding from his seven orifices, his belly still slightly heaving.
He Lingchuan could tell at a glance that it was beyond cure.
If it were a human, Wu Xianxian would have ordered people to carry it back long ago. However, General Golden Horn was enormous, and Wu Xianxian hadn't brought any heavy-duty war puppets like the Golden Armored Bronze General, so there was no way to take it away.
He Lingchuan squatted down beside it and whispered, "Do you have any last words?"
General Golden Horn was also a proud and fierce demon who had made countless great achievements on the battlefield. He Lingchuan asked this question out of respect for it.
"The true form of the Heavenly Emperor has descended, and you people... you also..."
