The more Purple Emperor fought, the more he retreated. Suddenly, Heavenly Lord Victor waved his hand, and the golden staff flew over. This time, the Purple Emperor didn't use his body to block it. Instead, he rushed forward and punched Heavenly Lord Victor's fingers that were holding the staff, making it difficult for Heavenly Lord Victor to hold on. However, Heavenly Lord Victor's reaction wasn't slow. Although he let go of the staff, he still kicked out, nearly crushing the Purple Emperor's upper body.
The Purple Emperor was sent flying by the kick. Heavenly Lord Victor grabbed the golden staff again. It was over.
He smashed the staff down. This time, the Purple Emperor couldn't escape.
The Purple Emperor raised his head, his white eyes staring at Heavenly Lord Victor. He completely ignored the golden staff and continued to stare at Heavenly Lord Victor.
Just as the golden staff was about to hit the Purple Emperor, it stopped. Heavenly Lord Victor's body froze. His expression changed drastically as he stared at the Purple Emperor. "This is …?"
"Attack!" The Purple Emperor shouted. His body was bleeding all over.
The nine-headed bird appeared in the void, its enormous body blotting out the sky. It raised its nine heads high and let out a shrill cry. Three of the heads had six pairs of eyes that stared at Celestial Battleship. "Die, Battleship."
Heavenly Lord Victor felt his hair stand on end. The nine-headed bird had the innate ability to curse. Once it targeted someone, it was as if their life was connected to their heads. If their heads were cut off, they would die. This was the nine-headed bird's most terrifying ability. It was also the reason why the Purple Emperor had ordered the nine-headed bird to launch a sneak attack.
Only the nine-headed bird could kill Heavenly Lord Victor in a single strike. At the cost of losing three heads, it could curse Heavenly Lord Victor to death.
Under normal circumstances, the nine-headed bird wouldn't have dared to cause trouble for Heavenly Lord Victor. However, Heavenly Lord Victor was currently under control. This was a rare opportunity. It was confident that it could kill him.
Heavenly Lord Victor was stared at by the three heads. He felt as if his vision had changed. This was because his life was connected to the heads of the nine-headed bird.
"It's over."
The nine-headed bird let out an excited cry. After killing Heavenly Lord Victor, its reputation wouldn't be any lower than the star toad's. Humans and other creatures all had vanity. The nine-headed bird was no exception.
Heavenly Lord Victor clenched his teeth. Heavenly Lord Victor wanted to kill him? Impossible.
The blood in his body boiled.......
Suddenly, a grey shadow flashed past and crashed into the nine-headed bird with a bang, knocking it away.
By knocking the nine-headed bird away, he had removed the nine-headed bird's curse, giving him a chance to kill Heavenly Lord Victor.
The sudden change attracted everyone's attention.
"Seven-star Mantis?"
"Seven-star Mantis?"
"Seven-star Mantis?"
The Zi Huang and the others were astonished. "Aren't you dead?"
"Something's not right."
The pure energy body opened its mouth for the first time, and its tone was like the ripples on the surface of a lake. "It is pure energy."
Zi Huang and the others stared at the Seven-Star Praying Mantis. They realized that this Seven-Star Praying Mantis was different from what they knew. It was as if it had been carved out of a gray mold.
Nine-Headed Bird was enraged. "Seven-star Mantis, I don't care what you are. You should die if you try to stop me from cursing Victory."
As he spoke, one of his heads stared at the Seven-star Praying Mantis while the other three heads continued to stare at Heavenly Venerate Victor. He still hadn't given up and wanted to curse him.
Heavenly Venerate Victor sneered. "So this is your backup plan, you three pieces of trash." He then raised his staff and smashed it down.
Zi Huang hurriedly dodged, but this staff was not aimed at him. Instead, it was aimed at the pure energy body.
Only by dealing with the pure energy body would he be able to display his full strength. Otherwise, he would have to fight to the death with Zi Huang.
The pure energy body immediately disappeared, and the transparent light spread out once more. This time, it enveloped the Seven-star Praying Mantis, causing him to instantly disappear.
In the distance, Lu Yin was shocked. The Seven-star Praying Mantis had actually disappeared. It had been forcefully erased.
That pure energy body's Absolute Energy Domain was actually so ruthless.
Lu Yin had learned about pure energy bodies through the nine-headed bird's memories, but because he had only fused with them for a short period of time, he hadn't learned much.
At the time, he had wanted to control the nine-headed bird to attack Heavenly Venerate Victor, but because he didn't know how long the bird would wait to attack, he had been forced to withdraw from the fusion. Sometimes, a battle could last for days or even years. Even if they wanted to finish this siege quickly, it wouldn't take more than a few years, but a few hours would not be impossible.
It had not been easy for him to fuse with the nine-headed bird's body, as the bird was a Sequence Law powerhouse. This was not a problem of insufficient resources. Back when he had been a Hunter, he had also been forced to withdraw from the fusion because he had forcefully fused with an Emissary's body. If he had withdrawn before the nine-headed bird attacked, then he could only watch as Heavenly Venerate Victor was ambushed and killed.
Even if he had used the nine-headed bird's body to attack Zi Huang and the others, it did not mean that he would have succeeded. Heavenly Venerate Victor's life had been hanging by a thread, and he could not afford to be careless.
To be safe, Lu Yin had immediately withdrawn from the fusion to provide support.
At this point, there was no need to overthink things.
The Seven-star Praying Mantis was erased, and the pure energy body avoided Heavenly Venerate Victor's attack. Zi Huang's white eyes stared at Heavenly Venerate Victor once more.
Heavenly Venerate Victor's body suddenly became unable to move. He had actually been controlled even when they were not looking at each other. This was Zi Huang's trump card.
Using this opportunity, the nine-headed bird tried to connect once more.
Heavenly Venerate Victor clenched his fists, and his golden blood melted to form a storm that connected the heavens and the earth. He swept out with his staff. "You underestimate me too much."
This staff viciously smashed into Zi Huang and the pure energy body, forcing them to retreat. This was the first time that the pure energy body had been injured in this battle, and it was clearly not light.
Zi Huang coughed up blood.
This monster was already extremely powerful, but even with the three of them working together, they had still been swept aside.
Since the nine-headed bird was high up in the sky, he had not been attacked. Heavenly Venerate Victor's staff swept past him, causing him to fall to one knee. The blood in his body was constantly being drained, and he could not hold on any longer.
Using this opportunity, the nine-headed bird tried to connect once more.
Lu Yin attacked. He reversed the flow of time and punched out a hundred times.
Lu Yin did not manage to land this punch, as the appearance of the Seven-star Praying Mantis had alerted the nine-headed bird. They knew that there was an enemy hiding nearby. Three of the nine-headed bird's heads stared at Heavenly Venerate Victor while the other six kept watch in all directions. No matter who attacked, they would be targeted, and they would try to connect.
Lu Yin was connected, and he was unable to land the hundred punches. His body suddenly appeared not too far away from the nine-headed bird.
The nine-headed bird was shocked. "Lu Yin?"
Zi Huang, the pure energy body, had not expected Lu Yin to appear either.
The moment Heavenly Venerate Victor saw the Seven-star Praying Mantis, he knew that no one else besides the Lu family was capable of summoning generals. But how did Lu Yin know that he was being surrounded?
"You deserve to die, you bastard bird." Lu Yin waved his hand, causing a General Appointment Platform to appear.
The nine-headed bird shrieked, "The Lu family's General Appointment Platform! You've chosen the Seven-star Praying Mantis?
Alright, if Victor's death isn't enough, then you can die as well. "After speaking, a faint connection allowed Lu Yin to see other scenes.
Others might not know, but Lu Yin knew that the nine-headed bird's innate gift was called a curse. On the surface, it was an innate gift, but in reality, it was a Sequence Law. However, this Law could become invisible and prevent Sequence Particles from being seen, which was why others had mistaken it for an innate gift.
The nine-headed bird was actually a Sequence Law powerhouse.
It relied on this Sequence Law innate gift to disguise itself, which made it as feared by the Eternals just like the Seven-star Praying Mantis. The Eternals believed that once such a creature reached the Sequence Law level, it would become even stronger.
This was the nine-headed bird's
Goal.
Actually, it couldn't compare to the Seven-star Praying Mantis at all. The Seven-star Praying Mantis truly did not reach the Sequence Law level, while the nine-headed bird was a fake.
Even if it was fake, strength was still strength. Anyone who was connected by the nine-headed bird's Sequence Law would be in trouble.
Unfortunately, since Lu Yin knew this secret, how could he be connected?
The simplest method was to release the starry sky from Lu Yin's heart and use the Void World to isolate the Sequence Law.
The nine-headed bird was shocked. Eh?
Before it could think any further, Lu Yin used Reverse Step and Parallel Time to approach.
The nine-headed bird knew that things were bad the moment it saw Lu Yin disappear, and it frantically released Sequence Particles.
Its Sequence Particles could not be seen by ordinary people, and Lu Yin's Parallel Time was not as useful when it included the Sequence Law, so it was forced out. The nine-headed bird had been able to survive until now, so its vigilance was no less than the Seven-star Praying Mantis' or the Awakening Stinger's.
It should be said that such creatures were very vigilant.
Lu Yin's appearance disrupted the nine-headed bird's attack on Victor for the second time, and the Celestial turned around to attack the Violet Emperor with his staff.
At that moment, the Venerated Lotus finally arrived.
"I'll leave that pure energy body to you," Lu Yin shouted.
The Venerated Lotus scanned the battlefield and stared at the pure energy body. His lotus bloomed and he attacked.
The three of them each had their own powerful enemies.
The pure energy body disgusted Lu Yin, as this thing could directly cripple his Commander Appointing Platform and the Divine Seal Catalog. It might even destroy the starry sky in his heart. In comparison, the nine-headed bird was much easier to deal with, and Lu Yin understood it very well. Once he got close, it would be the end of the nine-headed bird since he could control it.
However, this creature was too vigilant, and it immediately shrunk its body and stared at Lu Yin with all nine heads. "You're courting death."
Lu Yin sneered. "I'm going to choose another one today."
The nine-headed bird's feathers bristled, and formless Sequence Particles shot towards Lu Yin. It wanted to connect to Lu Yin's arms, eyes, ears, mouth, and nose. It wanted to connect to everything that this human could connect to.
This was one of its methods, and even if it did not directly use the Beheading Curse, it was still something that ordinary people could not withstand in battle.
However, Lu Yin understood it well, and when he saw it staring at him, he knew that things were not good.
The nine-headed bird's Sequence Laws were impossible to defend against, and just in case, Lu Yin could only wither his body. No matter where the nine-headed bird wanted to connect to, that place would receive damage back to itself.
When it saw Lu Yin wither, the nine-headed bird was shocked, and all nine pairs of eyes shrank as it shrieked in fear. "Things will move in the opposite direction when they reach an extreme?"
Lu Yin was shocked. "You know that things will move in the opposite direction when they reach an extreme?"
"What's your relationship with that undying person?"
"Withered Ancestor?"
The nine-headed bird turned around to flee.
Ever since it had cultivated the Sequence Laws, it had been successful in almost every endeavor. However, there was only one person who had remained unscathed no matter how it attacked. In fact, that person even liked its attacks. That person's strength was called 'things will move in the opposite direction when they reach an extreme'.
It had met that human in outer space, and it had thought that he would be a delicious meal. Who would have thought that he would be so small that it could not bite him? If not for the fact that that human was already on the verge of death, it would not have been able to escape. That human had said something that was deeply engraved in its heart, something that would forever shadow it: "I want to eat roasted chicken."
