Chapter 2877 One Strike for Success
However, General Tigerwing wasn't aiming at him at all; he was aiming at a red line directly in front of him.
Not to mention the other members of the assassination squad, even Pi Litian himself couldn't see the existence of this red thread.
This is, of course, the causal line.
Since Pili Tian used the teleportation technique, there is naturally a cause-and-effect relationship between his current location and the Panlong City Wall, the target of the teleportation.
He Lingchuan severed this thread of cause and effect.
As for Pi Litian, he only knew that the tiger wing's axe-like gale swept past him without hurting him, but in his mind, it seemed as if something had snapped with a "clang".
Very ominous!
He remembered that Tiger Wing had previously been wielding a weapon and slashing around. As a result, the mandala petals in this secret room rarely formed flat cuts.
So this guy wasn't just swinging his knife randomly, but actually blocked something?
Sure enough, his premonition came true.
After a brief pause, his teleportation failed to start successfully.
The surrounding scenery remained unchanged. He did not go to the front line of Panlong, but stayed in this cramped, narrow, and murderous secret room.
Pili Tian was shocked. How could this be? Even the Holy Venerable Lingxu couldn't restrict his teleportation in a non-enclosed space. How could the enemy before him possibly disable his divine magic?
But he was a seasoned veteran of thousands of years, and in the blink of an eye, he calmed down and changed his approach.
If long-distance teleportation doesn't work, why doesn't he just teleport outside the flesh and blood fortress? Once he's in open space, no one can restrict his movements anymore.
He finally figured it out.
But before he could even form that thought, He Lingchuan grabbed the Blood Blade Flying Axe and swung it at him twice.
The two axes were still not aimed at him; one axe fell in front of Bili Tian, and the other fell behind him, less than two zhang apart.
In fact, when He Lingchuan severed the causal thread with his sword earlier, his vision had already blurred and his heart was burning.
This is a sign of overexertion and a reflection of the decline of both body and soul.
He was like a sponge that had been squeezed dry; if you squeezed any more, he would end his own life.
But how could he back down at this critical juncture?
It concerns the success or failure of two worlds, and involves the survival of all living beings in both worlds!
Besides, wasn't this situation something he had already anticipated?
Ha, it's nothing more than death!
"cut!"
He Lingchuan roared, and the crimson mark on his forehead appeared out of thin air. He extracted his divine soul power one last time and poured it into the Blood Blade Flying Axe.
The artifact of the Hundred Battles Heaven possesses its own pride, and cannot be wielded by ordinary cultivators or even ordinary immortals. Unlike the Floating Life Blade, He Lingchuan has to consume a tremendous amount of energy every time he wants to use it.
In that instant, the Blood Blade Flying Axe almost completely drained all the power from his body, and then unleashed those two silent axe blows.
Time Slash!
This is one of the most terrifying ultimate techniques of the Hundred Battles Heaven.
He Lingchuan had carefully studied this when he was gathering intelligence, and he had personally experienced and countered Bai Zhantian's methods when he fought against him. He was already well aware of its principles!
He is the god of destiny. Without understanding the battle techniques of the Hundred Battles Heaven, how can one unravel its causal relationships?
Moreover, Bai Zhantian's fighting style is very pure, focusing only on "power" itself. He Lingchuan can understand the principles and mechanisms behind it, unlike other Heavenly Demons who rely on their unique divine power—this is something He Lingchuan cannot imitate.
Furthermore, although Pili Tian is known as the God of Space, all his actions are actually subject to the constraints of time.
On a larger scale, it's not just him; every living thing in the world is bound by time.
Just like Bai Zhantian before, He Lingchuan's two axes extracted Pi Litian from the time stream he was in, trapping him in a delay of less than a breath.
In that instant, he was as if he were encased in ice, unable to move.
Expressions, movements, and postures are all trapped in this time flow.
One breath is enough.
Although the other members of the assassination team did not see the trick, Pi Litian's flaws were clearly exposed, so how could they be polite?
Hu Min aimed two arrows straight at Pi Litian, one piercing his heart and the other his throat.
The door panel was even more direct; it grabbed its axe and leaped, aiming a blow straight at Pi Litian's neck.
How much can happen in a single breath?
First, Hu Min's arrow struck Bi Litian's heart and throat, but it didn't penetrate—the Great Demon's defense was no joke.
Then, the axe on the door panel struck the target.
Originally, his axe might not have been able to achieve the same result, but the door panel was not as simple and honest as it seemed. The place where he swung his axe was the wound that He Lingchuan had stabbed on the back of Pili Tian's neck with the Floating Life Blade!
Because the battle was so fast-paced, Pili Tian never had a chance to properly heal his wounds, not to mention that He Lingchuan's blade was imbued with karma, which was constantly corroding his wounds, causing them to worsen.
The axe struck this vulnerable spot, and the door panel was struck successfully, almost severing Pi Litian's neck. Only a few broken bones remained connecting his head and body!
Successful kill!
A streak of silver light then emerged from the head and flew into the night sky. Having exhausted his techniques, the doorman could only shout, "Stop him!"
That was the soul of Pili Tian, which escaped on its own after its physical body broke down.
He Lingchuan's vision was blurred, but he used his last bit of strength to throw out the Floating Life Blade.
He could no longer wield the Blood Blade Flying Axe; only the Floating Life Blade, a divine weapon that resonated with his will, was the easiest to use.
A flash of red light. Pili Tian's soul was churned by the sword energy and reduced to ashes.
The Floating Life Blade is characterized by its unerring accuracy.
The Great Demon Pili Tian of the Lingxu Clan was defeated, killed, and vanished into nothingness!
Witnessing this scene, Hu Min and the door panel were stunned and remained speechless for a long time.
They...they succeeded?
They actually managed to kill the God of Space and defend Panlong City?
Even though they did everything themselves, the team members still found it hard to believe at that moment.
A twenty-year dream, come true in one day?
But then, a thud was heard behind him.
The group turned around and saw that General Tiger Wing had fallen.
"General!"
They rushed forward and quickly helped He Lingchuan up. His face was ashen, and his eyes were bloodshot. Hu Min, seeing that he was barely breathing, quickly reached out to check his pulse, but couldn't feel a beat for a long time.
"Alo!"
He instinctively turned around and called for the medic, only to realize that Alo had already sacrificed himself in the previous battle.
The doorman scooped He Lingchuan up on his back and shouted, "We're taking you back, hang in there!"
He Lingchuan was powerless to respond.
Upon witnessing Bili Tian's soul dissipate, he felt a sense of relief, and the strength that had been supporting his body immediately vanished.
The body, already pushed to its limit, could no longer hold on.
The door panel carried him as he leaped out of the dark, flesh-and-blood fortress.
