The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2077: Slaying Luo Dejie

Luo Dejie was already frantic.

In order to seize this chaos, he had schemed for hundreds of billions of years, paying an unimaginable price. But now, just as he was about to succeed, the Life Force of the Primordial Chaos Tree was absorbed by Jing Yan. How could he be reconciled?

No matter, there’s still a chance. As long as he could kill Jing Yan, the Life Force of the Primordial Chaos Tree would still exist, and he could plunder it.

Luo Dejie no longer cared about the other Chaos Creatures and Ancient Tree Spirits as he charged straight at Jing Yan, vowing to kill him and reclaim the Life Force of the Primordial Chaos Tree.

At this moment, Jing Yan slowly raised his arm.

The unprecedentedly powerful force within his body made Jing Yan feel slightly uneasy. His strength had already reached the pinnacle of this chaos, but compared to before, it was worlds apart.

Every flick of his hand and foot was filled with immense Power. There was a faint sense of the Supreme Rule.

Watching Luo Dejie charge at him, Jing Yan smirked, his eyes brimming with fighting spirit.

"All of you, step back," Jing Yan said.

He was speaking to Nuwa Palace Master, Yihua Palace Master, Ma Yi Ancestor, and the numerous Ancient Tree Spirits.

In this battle, the top-tier Life in the entire chaos suffered great losses. Now, less than half remain alive. The losses among the Title Controllers were relatively smaller, while the Life at the Controller Level suffered even greater casualties.

The Nuwa Palace Master and others paused slightly upon hearing Jing Yan’s words. They all saw the Life Force of the Primordial Chaos Tree enter Jing Yan Daoist’s body. Although they were not yet certain what it was, they could sense the elevation in Jing Yan Daoist’s aura.

"Luo Dejie, entering this chaos was a complete mistake on your part. Today, you will meet your end here!" Jing Yan glared at Luo Dejie.

"Runt, you’re dreaming!" Luo Dejie clenched his fingers, unleashing black energy fluctuations with lethal intent sweeping across the land.

"Break!" Jing Yan shouted in a low voice.

The Ice Flame Sword slashed out, and a Sword Light pierced toward the black energy fluctuations.

"Splat!" As the Sword Light touched the black energy fluctuations, they, which were originally indestructible, were split open in an instant.

The black energy fluctuations were like a stream, but Jing Yan’s Chaos Sword Sword Light was like a boulder. When the stream rushed upon the boulder, it split to both sides.

"No! Damn it! Cursed runt!" Luo Dejie howled.

"Luo Dejie, perish!" Jing Yan’s figure suddenly charged forward.

The Tenth Layer of Ancient Tree Inheritance was pushed to the extreme, and a layer of hazy light and shadow enveloped Jing Yan’s body.

"Boom!" The Sword Light pierced, striking fiercely on the black halo around Luo Dejie’s body.

The black halo trembled violently, and when the Sword Light dispersed, the halo was noticeably thinner.

Previously, when a large number of Life had besieged Luo Dejie for such a long time, it only depleted two to three tenths of Luo Dejie’s strength. But now, this one sword from Jing Yan consumed at least two tenths of Luo Dejie’s power. Thus, only about three more attacks were needed for Jing Yan to annihilate Luo Dejie.

Luo Dejie did not retreat and continued to attack Jing Yan fiercely.

"Swish, swish, swish!" Jing Yan attacked at his fastest speed.

After a few consecutive swords, the black halo surrounding Luo Dejie’s body finally collapsed. At the moment of the black halo’s collapse, the entire Endless Chaos shook violently.

"Haha~" At this moment, Luo Dejie let out an eerie laugh.

His internal energy had almost been exhausted, yet he laughed at this moment.

Jing Yan gazed at Luo Dejie, readying the Ice Flame Sword to stab again and completely slay Luo Dejie.

"Unexpected! Truly unexpected!"

"I, Luo Dejie, prepared for so long to seize this chaos, plotting without concern for the cost. But in the end, I only paved the way for you, you little bastard!" Luo Dejie’s expression was eerie.

"But... little brat, even if I, Luo Dejie, fail, I will definitely not let you, you little bastard, enjoy it! Damn brat, I won’t let things go smoothly for you!" Luo Dejie’s expression became increasingly ferocious.

"Explode!" Luo Dejie shrieked.

His body suddenly swelled like a balloon.

"Not good!" Jing Yan’s eyes narrowed.

A strong sense of crisis arose in Jing Yan’s heart. He realized what Luo Dejie intended to do.

"Buzz!" Jing Yan waved his hand.

A haze of light swiftly enveloped Nuwa Palace Master and all the Chaos Creatures and Ancient Tree Spirits.

"Boom!" A thunderous sound echoed.

Luo Dejie’s body exploded. Terrifying energy spread rampantly. This energy dispersed at a terrifying speed. Nuwa Palace Master and others bore the brunt of the impact. Fortunately, Jing Yan had promptly unleashed energy to shield them. Around their bodies, a hazy light curtain containing the Supreme Rule offset the energy impact from Luo Dejie’s self-destruction.

If not for Jing Yan’s protection, Nuwa Palace Master and others might not have survived.

The black energy from the self-destruction swept over everything. The Ancient Tree Space nearby was obliterated in mere moments, reduced to particles as the entire space dissolved.

After a while, the space stabilized.

Jing Yan surveyed his surroundings and then dispersed the energy with a wave of his hand.

Nuwa Palace Master and others showed horrified expressions and then gathered around Jing Yan.

"The Ancient Tree Space... is gone!"

"Where is the Primordial Chaos Tree?"

"This... this..."

The crowd was stunned, dumbfounded.

Jing Yan’s expression did not improve after Luo Dejie was slain, his brows tightly furrowed.

Since he absorbed the Life Force of the Primordial Chaos Tree, his perception of this chaos had reached an unimaginable level. His Divine Thought seemed capable of instantaneously covering the entire chaos, penetrating even the Secret Realms, hidden spaces, and dangerous areas at the chaos’s edge, as if he could control everything.

At this moment, Jing Yan’s Divine Thought waves entered one of the top hazardous areas of chaos, Fangcun Mountain. His Divine Thought swept over the entire Fangcun Mountain effortlessly, revealing all the dangers hidden within along with the Treasure scattered throughout, flooding Jing Yan’s mind.

Jing Yan realized he seemed able to manipulate the Supreme Rule, possibly even alter it.

Yet none of this brought Jing Yan much joy. His Divine Thought, encompassing the whole chaos, immediately detected the chaos’s collapse.

Indeed, the entire chaos was collapsing. Jing Yan had already seen countless cracks widening. The Supreme Rule of the Endless Chaos could no longer mend these cracks.

In the past, Controllers and Title Controllers could easily tear the Chaos Barrier, and battles among the strong could damage the Chaos Barrier too. But under the influence of the Supreme Rule, these damages recovered swiftly. Now, the Endless Chaos had lost this ability to recover.
