Chapter 768: Punching Down A Ghost And God
The man’s eyes were tightly shut. His hair hung loosely across his shoulders. There were several scars on his face, and speaking of face, he looked somewhat similar to the spiritual intent of Li Hentian, though his lines were sharper, older, and unrelenting. He looked... real.
“The Dark Overlord...”
He wasn’t exactly the same as the spiritual intent, but Ye Qing still recognized him instantly as the one and only legend, the Dark Overlord Li Hentian. In his memories, Li Hentian had passed away on this very peak, which was why he was confused that Li Hentian’s body was nowhere to be found. To think that the legend had been right beside him this whole time, and he didn’t even realize until he revealed himself!
Li Hentian was definitely dead. Ye Qing could not sense even a hint of vitality from his body. Even so, he was equally certain that the sigh had come from the dead man.
As expected, Li Hentian opened his eyes the next second and looked at Murong Xianxian affectionately. “Long time no see, Xiexian!”
Murong Xianxian was currently wearing a complicated expression on her face. She did not say anything.
“Li Hentian...”
By now, Zongtian finally noticed Li Hentian. Both faces were looking down on him as the black qi surrounding their giant hand grew thicker. They pushed again.
Rumble rumble rumble...
The entire mountain began shaking ominously. Even the Central Wu Earth Hall had become much dimmer than before. Despite this, Li Hentian’s finger did not budge an inch. It hadn’t even curled or wobbled a little.
“You’re noisy.”
Li Hentian abruptly looked up, and his eyes shone like the rising sun and falling moon both at once. A dazzling light pierced the sky at the same time a loud thump rippled across the entire world.
It was the sound of Li Hentian’s heartbeat.
Thump... thump... thump thump...
At first, his heartbeat was very, very slow. Over time, it grew faster and louder until it felt like a celestial was beating a heavenly drum.
The next moment, Li Hentian retracted his finger, made a fist, and punched.
There was barely any space between his fist and the hand, but so what? Wind and thunder could exist within a span of inches. A single inch was enough for someone to blast the gates of heaven wide open.
BOOM!!!
The giant hand exploded, and Zongtian staggered backward with shock and fury in their eyes. “The audacity!”
“The audacity?”
Li Hentian withdrew his fist while showering the faltering Ghost and God with unbridled scorn. “Nah, you are more audacious than me. After all, you dared to try and take my woman! Even I wouldn’t dare to do such a thing!”
Smooth water flows without a sound, and a Great Way possesses no shape. When a warrior’s fist had reached the pinnacle, their punches would leave no trace in the world but affect everything.
The punch was still going despite piercing the Eighteen Hells and shattering the ten halls of King Yan. Li Hentian appeared in front of the Ghost and God’s face and struck him squarely in the forehead.
Again, it looked like a laughable ant was trying to topple the giant tree. Again, Li Hentian did the seemingly impossible and sent the mountain-sized Ghost and God flying a thousand kilometers through the air, crushing countless mountains in the process.
“Raaaaaghhhh!”
After Zongtian finally arrested themselves, they shook off their dizziness and let out a throaty roar. Then, they grabbed two random mountains and tossed them at Li Hentian.
Li Hentian withdrew his fist and turned sideways. He slammed into the two mountains like he was slamming the gates of heavens wide open.
The two mountains shattered like glass, failing to slow Li Hentian even a little. He flew straight toward Zongtian’s chest.
Zongtian’s chest abruptly split open in different directions like a giant maw. Instead of innards, an ungodly number of worms lurked within his body. They had a human’s head but a worm’s body, and their mouths were full of razor sharp teeth. They looked terrifying.
The worms swarmed Li Hentian instantly. At the same time, the Ghost and God’s split chest slammed shut.
Zongtian looked up and let out a victorious roar after devouring Li Hentian. They looked extremely proud of themselves.
It didn’t last. The next second, a hint of pain and anger flashed through their features. At the same time, sounds of explosions came from inside their stomach.
Boom!
There was a deafening boom, and the Ghost and God’s body exploded in a shower of blood and gore. Yin qi filled the world, and countless ghosts screamed.
“Hahaha... Six Ghosts and Gods my ass! You are pathetic!”
Li Hentian stood at the center of the cloud of yin qi, laughing uproariously. But of course, the battle wasn’t over yet. Zongtian was the master of the Grand Fiend Abode of Forgiveness. They could not possibly perish so easily.
A pair of faces appeared in the cloud of yin qi. One of them was male, and the other female. The man’s face looked solemn and dignified like a god, while the woman’s face looked ugly and savage like a ghost’s.
They were the faces of the master of the Tianzong Palace, though they were many, many times larger than what they were before. The man’s face shifted to the sky where he looked down on the earth like an unfeeling, omnipotent god. The woman’s face shifted to the ground where she eyed the world with naked greed. Both faces were overflowing with power.
Celestial and demon, ghost and god. The gazes and the clash between two completely different powers distorted the surrounding space. Countless ripples and lines joined together to form the terrifying illusion of a shattered world where the living was dead, the bodies stretched endlessly, the sea was blood, and the dead were everywhere.
Then, the man’s face descended, and the woman’s face ascended. The two terrifying powers engulfed Li Hentian instantly.
