CHAPTER TEXT:
With a devastating force, as the true form of Hamdanman disintegrated into black dust, erased by the terrifying power contained within the cycle of time, a bright crimson Blood Moon appeared in the sky.
This Blood Moon was dozens of times larger than the demon kings, resembling a real celestial body appearing thousands of kilometers above, and then slowly descending.
Immediately, the rich power of the laws in the world dissipated, surging in all directions.
These so-called phenomena of mythical-level beings falling were manifestations formed when they died, as their laws dissipated and merged with the world, equivalent to an alternative return to the heavens and earth.
At that moment, around Chen Chu, cracks appeared in the silver wings resembling a silver river, which then exploded into countless silver light spots that vanished.
That last strike had instantly exhausted the power of the time cycle contained in the divine ability.
Huff!
Chen Chu slowly exhaled. As the silver halo faded, the silver wing mark on his forehead dimmed, and even his long hair returned to its black color.
Using up nine time marks to slay a being that was half a step into the demon god level, whose true combat power was comparable to an ordinary early ancient demon god, was quite cost-effective.
After all, these mythical-level marks would eventually have to be consumed. Keeping them would only waste 'skill slots.'
With Chen Chu's current strength, his ordinary human form was already comparable to the pinnacle of a heavenly king, and manifesting the true form of the eight-armed demon god would allow him to break the shackles and step into the ancient supreme level.
Of course, this step into power only corresponded to an ordinary early ancient demon god.
Although beings that could become demon gods were all immensely talented, there still existed gaps in talent among cultivators and behemoths.
For example, the dragon of time, a being mastering the supreme law, once stepping into the ancient level could at least clash with mid-ancient beings under the time rules.
Thus, for Chen Chu now, the previously condensed time true form was somewhat redundant; it would be better to consume it, then re-condense new time marks.
At that time, each additional condensed time clone would equate to an ordinary early ancient demon god's combat power.
Condensing nine would mean he gained nine early demon gods, which was a terrifying thought.
Of course, that was just a thought.
The stronger the body, the greater the consumption of time power when condensing the time true form. Now, the power needed to condense one was nearly equivalent to the total of the previous nine.
This is a fundamental rule even in the mythical world and endless time and space, and even top divine abilities cannot completely break it.
With the battle over, the next step was to clean up the battlefield.
At over two thousand meters tall, Chen Chu, with six arms, resembled a towering mountain as he slightly lowered his head to look below.
There, in a dark pit with a diameter of over one thousand kilometers, as Hamdanman fell, the incomplete black battle axe also returned to a size of a kilometer, sinking into the rolling dark demon qi.
Naturally, Chen Chu would not let this rule-refined pseudo-world-class weapon slip away, and his figure flashed to appear in the dark pit several hundred kilometers below.
Behind Chen Chu, a gigantic arm reached out and grasped the battle axe.
Boom!
At the moment Chen Chu seized the black battle axe, his form involuntarily sank, as if he were grasping not an axe, but a world in free fall, so heavy it was.
In addition, a powerful rebound force filled with madness and darkness pushed against Chen Chu.
"Looking for death!"
Chen Chu's gaze turned cold, and a hollow, void-like eye slowly appeared on his forehead. In an instant, a void-slaying black slashing blade struck out, shooting towards the black battle axe.
Boom! The incomplete black battle axe shook violently, and several tiny cracks appeared on the wheel-shaped axe blade, making it look even more damaged and dim.
