Chapter 623 - 479: Secrets of the Star Sea World, Battle at the Pinnacle (Part 1)

Integration Stage Cataclysm Battlefield.

Qi Ping saw the last sixteen Integration Stage Holy Demons clinging together in a bizarre state.

Pieces of dragon scales, similar to dark crystals, covered each Holy Demon.

A terrifying dragon-shaped phantom slowly formed at the fusion of the Holy Demons, and simultaneously, an awe-inspiring Power of Time began to permeate heaven and earth...

"They are merging! The calamity does not trouble them, their entire body emitting the Power of Time..."

With just a glance, Qi Ping felt that eerily chilling mysterious power....

An unprecedented sense of crisis rose in his heart.

"What kind of monster is this!?"

Qi Ping hadn’t felt this kind of fear and oppression from the level of existence for a long time.

In addition, Qi Ping sensed a familiar aura emanating from above.

"This aura... could it be the legendary Demon Nest?"

"But according to records, isn’t it said that unless the Demon Realm is at a life-and-death moment, the Demon Nest would never appear?"

In limited records, the Demon Nest is the core that reigns over everything in the Demon Realm, the origin of all demons that makes the cosmos tremble, the most supreme will.

Perhaps it would not awaken even once in ten thousand years, and some of the Demon Race might not even know of the Demon Nest’s existence.

There are even rumors that the source of these various Demon Realms and Demon Races might be the same single mother nest.

Yet now, the Demon Nest has appeared!

"Damn it! What secret does the Star Sea World hold that even the Demon Nest has been drawn here?"

Originally, Qi Ping merely speculated, but now he is completely certain that the Star Sea World undoubtedly harbors an incredibly astonishing secret!

This secret is so significant that it terrifies even the mighty Celestial Dragon World, and despite the Star Sea World’s decline to this extent, its scheming has never ceased.

Now it has even compelled the Demon Nest to awaken!

But Qi Ping no longer has time to explore what this secret is because with nearly every passing moment, the black dragon shadow condenses more, its aura even more terrifying.

Thus, Qi Ping hesitated not for a moment, instantly unleashing his Immortal Dao Foundation, even burning it alongside his Divine Soul as the cost to urge the Five-Colored Immortal Light (Extermination), then attaching it to the Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber, fiercely charging toward it!

However, this Divine Technique was different from before.

This Lifebound Divine Technique of the Five-Colored Immortal Body originally only had the ability to extinguish the Five Elements and all things, but its annihilation intensity still had certain limits—despite the strength of the Five-Colored Immortal Body, it still fell short compared to those physiques renowned throughout the cosmos.

But the true power of the Five-Colored Immortal Light lies in its frightful growth potential, the more insights and magic it fuses with, the stronger it becomes.

Before this, Qi Ping had already integrated all his past magic insights, elevating its power to unprecedented heights.

Yet Qi Ping always felt this wasn’t the limit of the Five-Colored Immortal Light.

Until this moment, feeling the Power of Time emanating from the black dragon before him, a never-before-felt enlightenment emerged in Qi Ping’s mind.

"So it lacked the Power of Time!"

In an instant, the might of Qi Ping’s Five-Colored Immortal Light soared, covering the sky in the blink of an eye!

Immediately, following the slash of the Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber, the Five-Colored Immortal Light swept across, crashing down on the increasingly solidifying black dragon phantom!

Simultaneously, the black dragon phantom spewed an equally vast and immense black light.

The imposing aura of this black light surprisingly matched Qi Ping’s enhanced Five-Colored Immortal Light perfectly!

The speed of these two attacks reached terrifying extremes—they collided in the blink of an eye!

In just an instant, the entire world seemed to cease!

It was as if even time had frozen!

But in the next moment, all stagnation dissipated instantaneously, everything began to break apart and vanish inch by inch.

The connecting space ripped apart thoroughly, time started to unravel chaotically, even the corrosion over everything was impacted, with its speed either slowing or hastening.

The catastrophe on the battlefield also collapsed and vanished at that moment!

The power of this strike far surpassed the boundary of the Integration Stage, making the previously terrifying catastrophe appear fragile as grass in that moment.

This is power that only cultivators in the Mahayana Stage could unleash!

As everything crumbled and vanished, a terrifying scene gradually unfolded, with countless shattered Power of Law indiscriminately obliterating everything; an ordinary cultivator entering might be destroyed by that terrifying power in unimaginable ways with just a glance!

As the epicenter of this destructive power, Qi Ping’s situation could be imagined.

The terrifying impact shattered all his magic defenses almost instantaneously.

His physical body also suffered violent impacts, nearly collapsing in an instant, losing his form entirely.

Fortunately, for cultivators at this level, such damage is not necessarily fatal—starting from the Divinity Transformation Stage, a cultivator’s body transforms from mortal to divine, allowing it to be restored with Spiritual Power as long as Spirituality and the Immortal Dao Foundation remain.

And Qi Ping’s foundation was firmly protected by layers of Power of Yin Yang and Five Elements, with additional layers of Power of Space forming a stratum that shielded his Immortal Dao Foundation completely from this terrifying impact.

However.... in the black dragon’s attack, the impact was merely incidental, the most dreadful was that all-eroding Power of Time!

Under this turbulent Power of Time, in just a moment, Qi Ping’s Immortal Dao Foundation began to rapidly decay at varying speeds.

This uneven decaying caused the stable foundation Qi Ping took pride in to start spiraling out of control and even showed signs of collapsing!

Even more terrifyingly, under this temporal impact, portions of his memory began to blur, and his insights into laws and magic began to dissipate and be forgotten!

And at this moment, Qi Ping’s main body lost all memory connection with the clone, even Qi Ping’s main body’s memory halted at the final instant when the last two attacks clashed.

All connections were totally severed!

"Demon Nest..." On the Seven-Colored Immortal Vein of the Nine Star Sea Realms, Qi Ping’s main body gazed intently towards the cataclysm battlefield, a look of unprecedented solemnity in his eyes.

"What on earth happened on the battlefield’s end to completely sever my awareness link with the Tree-man Avatar..."

This was the first occurrence where the awareness communication with the Tree-man Avatar was entirely severed.

However, what puzzled Qi Ping was that although the avatar’s awareness and physical body were crushly gravely in an instant, Qi Ping could still sense the Tree-man Avatar was fighting and hadn’t been utterly destroyed.

Moreover, before the awareness connection was completely broken, the Tree-man Avatar’s attack had even caused several ferocious cracks in the black dragon phantom, with two not completely fused Holy Demon bodies being obliterated and consumed by the Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber.

The Celestial-Slaying Demon Saber also withstood by channeling the power derived from this devourment.

Although the rust became increasingly mottled, that streak of unyielding Demon Nature unexpectedly grew even more flaunty in the temporal chaos...
