The Rank 13 Blood God Flag existed between the real and the illusory, and its changes were the quickest and most agile. Although it wasn't as sharp as the Dragon King Halberd, its ability to devour blood and Divine Soul was also terrifying.
The Heaven Equal Cicada attacked Gao Zhengyang with the Heavenly Cicada Sword, but it inevitably revealed a gap. It couldn't compare with Gao Zhengyang. Although it had a protective Divine Artifact, it couldn't withstand an attack from the Blood God Flag.
After a flash of blood light, the Heaven Equal Cicada's body froze and turned into a cloud of blood mist.
The Blood God Flag spread out and collected the cloud of blood mist. There was still a bit of spiritual light in the blood mist. It turned around like a fish and broke through the Blood God Flag and rose into the sky.
Seeing that the spiritual light was about to go away, three fingers pinched the spiritual light in the air.
The spiritual light quickly dimmed and turned into a speck of dark dust.
Gao Zhengyang flipped his hand and grabbed at the formless and colorless spirituality that had escaped from the void.
"The Heavenly Cicada Shedding is useless against me …"
Since Gao Zhengyang knew about the Heaven Equal Cicada, he wouldn't let it escape. Although the Heavenly Cicada Shedding was magical, it couldn't hide from Gao Zhengyang's senses.
No matter how the Heaven Equal Cicada hid, it was still caught by Gao Zhengyang.
The colorless and invisible spiritual light suddenly burst out and the Heaven Equal Cicada appeared out of thin air.
When the Heaven Equal Cicada was killed by the Blood God Flag, most of its blood and Divine Soul power were absorbed by the flag. However, the real core imprint turned into invisible and colorless spiritual light and dissipated with the wind.
That bit of spiritual light was just a change to confuse people's eyes and ears. It was the Heavenly Cicada Shedding. It was a pity that he had met Gao Zhengyang, who knew him through and through. Gao Zhengyang was the strongest thirteenth level cultivator in this world, and his body and mind were flawless.
No matter how the Heaven Equal Cicada changed, it couldn't escape from Gao Zhengyang.
The Heaven Equal Cicada had no choice but to use its potential and turn into a human again. It had just been killed and lost most of its power, so it should be extremely weak.
However, the Heavenly Cicada Nine Transformations allowed it to shed its shell and be reborn, and its power was much stronger.
This kind of enhancement was not a temporary burst, but the Celestial Cicada Nine Transformations. It absorbed the experience of death and automatically adjusted and optimized its own strength.
The reborn Heaven's Equal Cicada was covered in a thin layer of golden scales. His five-foot-tall body became shorter by another foot.
His shorter stature made his muscles and bones even more sturdy. Coupled with the cicada's thin scales, the defense of his body was greatly enhanced.
At the same time, he increased his speed.
With Gao Zhengyang's sharp eyes, he immediately saw through the mystery of the Heaven's Equal Cicada's transformation. He was also a little surprised. The Celestial Cicada Nine Transformations was really interesting.
The wonder of the Heavenly Cicada's Nine Transformations was not in its ability to be reborn after death, but to shed the Heavenly Cicada's carapace, turning it into something invisible and avoiding death. He could also learn from the experience and adjust his condition to improve further.
This was not even a conscious decision on the part of the Heaven Equal Cicada. Because he didn't have the foresight and knowledge, he immediately made adjustments. It was the Nine Transformations of the Celestial Cicada.
The Celestial Cicada's Nine Transformations was completely in line with the laws of the era. It could quickly make adjustments and corrections through problems, pushing the living beings to continuously transform and evolve.
This was much easier than cultivating in seclusion. Unfortunately, the Heaven Equal Cicada wasted a lot of this Divine Power.
The Heaven Equal Cicada's active reincarnation could not really activate the power of the Nine Transformations of the Celestial Cicada. This kind of active reincarnation would not make the Nine Transformations of the Celestial Cicada aware of the individual's flaws.
Only under great pressure and when the individual was killed because of the flaws, the Nine Transformations of the Celestial Cicada could adjust.
With such a Divine Power, the Heaven Equal Cicada should go out and fight. After being killed, it would become more powerful.
Of course, there was also a risk of being killed. If something went wrong, it might not be able to be resurrected.
There was also the Grand Supreme Dao Lord in the Mixed Essence Realm, so the Heaven Equal Cicada could not act recklessly.
After seeing the Heaven Equal Cicada's Nine Transformations, Gao Zhengyang was even more interested in this Divine Power.
He didn't know how many dangers he would encounter in the Primordial World. After learning the Nine Transformations of the Celestial Cicada, he could also have a backup plan. The Nine Transformations of the Celestial Cicada, which became stronger the more one died, was more to Gao Zhengyang's liking.
However, the Heaven Equal Cicada's original body was a Heavenly Cicada, which was why it had such a Divine Power. It would not be easy for him to get this Divine Power from the Heaven Equal Cicada.
Gao Zhengyang looked at the reborn Heaven Equal Cicada and was not in a hurry to make a move.
The Heaven Equal Cicada was a little impatient. After his rebirth, his strength had increased greatly, which made him realize the true use of the Nine Transformations of the Celestial Cicada.
Unfortunately, he had voluntarily reincarnated in the past and didn't realize that the Nine Transformations of the Celestial Cicada had such a magical effect. But it was not too late.
The Heaven Equal Cicada sneered at Gao Zhengyang. "You didn't expect this, did you?"
"I am a little surprised."
Gao Zhengyang said sincerely, "Let me see what you can do with the Nine Transformations of the Celestial Cicada!"
The Heaven Equal Cicada stopped smiling. "You? Hahaha …"
He sneered and flapped the three pairs of golden cicada wings on his back. The translucent wings vibrated with energy at an extremely high speed, gathering into invisible Celestial Cicada Sword Qi.
The reborn Heaven Equal Cicada naturally combined the Emei Sword Art and the Celestial Cicada Sword.
The Celestial Cicada Sword Art vibrated thousands of times in an instant, and each vibration released a layer of Sword Qi. Thousands of layers of Sword Qi overlapped, and its power was extremely terrifying.
The Sword Qi released by the Celestial Cicada Sword Art was invisible and silent.
The Heaven Equal Cicada Sword Art's mentality suddenly changed when he understood this exquisite change. This kind of pure Sword Dao transformation was a first-class killing art.
Although the world was big, there were only a few people who could be his opponent with this art.
Copper Monkey Old Sun couldn't help but narrow his eyes. He couldn't see the thousands of layers of overlapping Sword Qi, but he could feel it. The power of this Sword Qi was already a threat to him.
If he accidentally got hit, it would definitely not feel good.
Gao Zhengyang didn't dodge and let the invisible Sword Qi fall on him. The Heavenly Demon Silk and cloud robe on his body immediately collapsed, revealing his Dragon Emperor Immortal Divine Body.
No matter how heavy and sharp the Sword Qi was, it couldn't compare to the Dragon Emperor Immortal Divine Body. Gao Zhengyang didn't move, but his high bun shook a little.
"That's it?"
Gao Zhengyang was a little disappointed and said, "You're much weaker than I thought."
Heaven Equal Cicada was also shocked. The Rapid Vibration Sword Qi that he had just learned was like a breeze to Gao Zhengyang. It didn't even mess up his hair.
How is this possible?
Heaven Equal Cicada was very confused. This attack could easily kill an Essence Guo Divine Lord. It would be fine if Gao Zhengyang used the Divine Weapon, but he clearly used his body to take it.
"It's okay, you can still change, can't you? Let me help you."
Gao Zhengyang said and pressed his palm in the air. It was like a breeze and he didn't use any strength at all. But the palm energy covered heaven and earth, it was endless.
Heaven Equal Cicada wanted to dodge instinctively. He couldn't take such a palm energy. But the palm energy was extremely powerful and boundless. How could he dodge it?
Heaven Equal Cicada had no choice but to use the Celestial Cicada Sword Art to fight back.
Gao Zhengyang didn't care how Heaven Equal Cicada struggled. His palm was activated by the Dragon Emperor Immortal Body and Grand Supreme Dao Lord wasn't qualified to take it on. Let alone a mere Heaven Equal Cicada.
His palm energy also contained the changes of the Eternal Life Mantra. In his hands, the Eternal Life Mantra was a level higher. It wasn't something the experts of the Eternal Life Immortal Sect could compare to.
No matter how Heaven Equal Cicada changed, as long as he couldn't beat Gao Zhengyang in strength and couldn't break through the changes of the Eternal Life Mantra, he could only accept the palm.
Gao Zhengyang pressed his palm down and Heaven Equal Cicada turned into a ball of blood qi again.
The Blood God Flag spread out again and absorbed all the blood qi.
But in the void, Heaven Equal Cicada was reborn. This time, it took him a long time to transform and reborn. But all these changes happened inside the Heaven Cicada's shell and happened in the blink of an eye in the outside world.
After Gao Zhengyang got the Universe Light Disc, he had a new understanding of energy changes.
Heaven Equal Cicada's Heaven Cicada's transformation was fast and secretive, but it couldn't hide from his observation.
He saw Heaven Equal Cicada turn into a bit of spirituality after its death and transform again. Then, it broke out of the shell and became a new life.
The whole process seemed short, but the steps were very careful and not random.
Gao Zhengyang saw Heaven Equal Cicada's two transformations and he learned a lot. But this Spirit Art couldn't be obtained through learning.
Only by obtaining Heaven Equal Cicada's essence fruit and making him hand it over willingly would Gao Zhengyang be able to obtain this Spirit Art.
For the Heaven Cicada Nine Transformations, Gao Zhengyang was willing to fight with Heaven Equal Cicada. Even if he couldn't get it in the end, it was worth a try.
Heaven Equal Cicada was reborn again. This time, he was seven feet tall again. He was three feet taller and his body was thinner and more reserved.
The golden scales on his body also turned from fine scales to large scales, combining to form a seamless set of tight-fitting golden armor.
Originally, there were three pairs of Heaven Cicada Wings, but now there were only two pairs on his back. The remaining pair of wings were hanging under Heaven Equal Cicada's ribs.
Heaven Equal Cicada's face was covered by the armor. He stood in the void like a beautiful mecha with slender lines. His whole body was full of toughness and power.
Gao Zhengyang sized him up and said, "How can there be a problem with your transformation? It's like trying to cure a headache. No matter how much you adjust your body, you're still too weak. You have to realize that you're weak in all aspects, not just adjusting your body's structure … "
Heaven Equal Cicada, who had transformed again, had made great progress. However, in Gao Zhengyang's eyes, this transformation was very limited.
After all, the Heaven Cicada Nine Transformations was not real intelligence. It could only be corrected according to the individual's flaws. The Heaven Cicada Nine Transformations didn't realize that Heaven Equal Cicada was killed by Gao Zhengyang with one palm strike. It wasn't just because his body wasn't strong enough.
Heaven Equal Cicada didn't listen to Gao Zhengyang. He felt that his current state was just right. After this rebirth, he had changed the most minute parts of his body, and the strength of his whole body had increased by more than five times.
His strong body also allowed him to control more essence energy. Now, he could use the sword art with even more ease.
Heaven Equal Cicada felt that he was at the peak of his power. He was even a little intoxicated by this power.
It turned out that the real secret of his power was in him. He had been struggling for tens of thousands of years, and only now did he realize it. But it wasn't too late.
"Speaking of which, I have to thank you. Without you, I wouldn't have known that I could be so strong."
Heaven Equal Cicada pulled out a pair of Celestial Cicada Swords and bowed to Gao Zhengyang solemnly. "You should have no regrets dying under my Celestial Cicada Swords."
"Your power hasn't improved much, but your confidence is off the charts."
Gao Zhengyang said, "Let me help you wake up."
Gao Zhengyang struck again. Just like before, his palm force was vast and boundless, covering all directions.
Heaven Equal Cicada raised his swords and instantly slashed out thousands of sword lights. The sword lights formed a golden ball of light.
Since Gao Zhengyang's palm force was so great that there was nowhere to hide, he didn't dodge at all. The Celestial Cicada Swords activated a sword domain, which was self-contained. It contained the endless changes of the Emei Sword Formation.
The full name of the Emei Sword Formation was the Taixu Wuji Life and Death Bright and Dim Formation. This formation was both real and fake, and the sword lights evolved into a divine domain, which was extremely brilliant.
When attacked by external forces, the Taixu Infinite Life and Death Bright Dim Formation could absorb all the power, and when the absorption reached the limit, the formation would push all the power back.
It also involved the guidance of laws, the connection of divine souls, the changes of Origin Energy, and many other aspects.
Although Heaven Equal Cicada's sword lights were wonderful, they couldn't perform all the changes of the formation. But it was enough to deal with Gao Zhengyang's great palm force.
Heaven Equal Cicada thought that his response was exquisite, but Gao Zhengyang's great palm force suddenly converged to the extreme.
It was so small that even Heaven Equal Cicada couldn't detect it. This small palm force easily penetrated the layers of sword lights and fell on Heaven Equal Cicada.
When it fell, the palm force turned from small to huge. Heaven Equal Cicada turned into a pile of powder on the spot.
After being killed so many times, Heaven Equal Cicada couldn't activate the Supreme Moral Sword anymore. As for the other protective divine artifacts, they were all destroyed by Gao Zhengyang. Only his Celestial Cicada Divine Power could be used normally.
This time, Heaven Equal Cicada was silent for a long time before it was reborn.
After the rebirth, Heaven Equal Cicada's armor was thicker, and his body was thicker. Qi Tian Chan's confidence had suffered a heavy blow after being continuously blasted into pieces.
He changed his form again, but he still didn't have the confidence to face Gao Zhengyang's unpredictable palm.
This kind of transformation without a trace had already deduced the laws to the extreme.
Heaven Equal Cicada was a little arrogant, but he still had vision. After being killed continuously, he also realized that the situation was not right. But with his ability, he could only make this kind of adjustment.
Seeing Heaven Equal Cicada's adjustment, Gao Zhengyang was a little disappointed. "It's not that you can't adjust your body shape, but you have to use your physical nature to prove the Dao with your body. What's the use of simply becoming stronger … "
Gao Zhengyang's reprimand was not pleasant to hear, but Heaven Equal Cicada couldn't refute it.
After a moment of silence, he said, "What do you want?"
At this point, Heaven Equal Cicada realized that the Celestial Cicada Nine Transformations could not deal with Gao Zhengyang, so he was willing to talk to Gao Zhengyang.
Gao Zhengyang didn't hide it. "Give me the Celestial Cicada Nine Transformations, and I will spare your life."
Heaven Equal Cicada Nine Transformations was the foundation of his Dao, how could he give it to Gao Zhengyang?
"You wish!"
Gao Zhengyang said indifferently, "The Celestial Cicada Nine Transformations is very good, but on you, the limit is set. No matter how much you change, you won't be able to do anything. "
"I have the Celestial Cicada Nine Transformations, immortal and indestructible. You can do whatever you want. "
Heaven Equal Cicada didn't want to bargain anymore. Although he couldn't beat Gao Zhengyang, Gao Zhengyang couldn't kill him either. At most, he would just waste time like this.
Gao Zhengyang couldn't help but laugh. "You have been killed continuously, and each time you are killed, you have to use your origin. It's hard to say if you can last until the ninth time. Immortal and indestructible? Who are you kidding? "
"I would rather die than give you the Celestial Cicada Nine Transformations."
Heaven Equal Cicada was very firm. The Celestial Cicada Nine Transformations couldn't be repeated. If he gave it to Gao Zhengyang, he would completely lose the Celestial Cicada Nine Transformations. That was something he couldn't tolerate.
"You don't understand death at all."
Gao Zhengyang said, "When you really understand death, you will know how precious life is. I won't say such arrogant words again. "
Gao Zhengyang didn't let Heaven Equal Cicada say anything else. He smashed Heaven Equal Cicada with another palm, grabbed a bit of his Reincarnation Spirituality and threw it into Copper Monkey's Inner World.
That real physical world would teach Heaven Equal Cicada how to be a human.
Copper Monkey Old Sun touched his chest, he was very interested in what Heaven Equal Cicada would encounter.
He asked Gao Zhengyang, "Boss, how are you going to play with Heaven Equal Cicada?"
Gao Zhengyang glanced at Old Sun. "Why? Are you interested in this man? You can play with him."
Old Sun hurriedly waved his hand. "No, no, I'm just asking."
"Heaven Equal Cicada is the reincarnation of a Celestial Cicada. He won't really die every time. He doesn't understand death at all."
Gao Zhengyang said, "It's easy to deal with him. Let him die twice and he will know the horror of death."
"Then what if he's not afraid of death?" Old Sun asked.
"Then he can die."
Gao Zhengyang said indifferently, "Celestial Cicada Nine Transformations is good, but it's not indispensable. You have to understand that no matter how strong you are, you can never have everything go your way. "
At this point, Gao Zhengyang had already accepted it. He wouldn't be too concerned about gains and losses.
Old Sun, however, couldn't let it go. He scratched his head and said unwillingly, "This Celestial Cicada Nine Transformations is so powerful. If Boss can get his hands on it …"
Although Old Sun was simple, he also understood that if something happened to Gao Zhengyang, he wouldn't be able to live either. On the other hand, even if he was killed, Gao Zhengyang could bring him back to life.
They were about to enter the Great Desolate World. Old Sun naturally hoped that Gao Zhengyang would be as strong as possible.
Gao Zhengyang smiled and didn't say anything. Old Sun was a simple person after all. He didn't understand that Celestial Cicada Nine Transformations was an external force. No matter how useful it looked, it wasn't enough.
On the other hand, the Eternal Life Mantra was the true dao of the era. That was the foundation of the next level.
Gao Zhengyang thought of the Dao Severing Sword Scripture. This was a supreme technique that was passed down from Heavenly Lord Hong Jun. Why did Grand Supreme Dao Lord give it to him?
Who knows what kind of miraculous changes there would be between the 14th and 15th level.
Although Gao Zhengyang had faintly touched the threshold of the 14th level, he was still in awe of the power of the 14th level.
Although Grand Supreme Dao Lord's power was restricted, his insight and knowledge were much better than his. There must be an ulterior motive for giving him the Dao Severing Sword Scripture.
Gao Zhengyang couldn't see through Grand Supreme Dao Lord's thoughts, but this bait was too tempting. He couldn't help but want to swallow it. But once he took this step, he could only walk along the path that Grand Supreme Dao Lord had drawn.
Therefore, Gao Zhengyang could temporarily hold back. No matter how good the Dao Severing Sword Scripture was, he couldn't use his life to exchange for it.
In the following period of time, Gao Zhengyang returned to East Sea and made some simple arrangements. He had stayed in this world for a period of time, so he had some old friends. It was better to settle them down.
After everything was settled, Gao Zhengyang arrived at the entrance of the Great Desolate World according to the map that Grand Supreme Dao Lord had given him.
This place was above the Nine Heavens, and there was a huge black hole that constantly devoured elemental energy. The black hole released a destructive aura that made Copper Monkey Old Sun uneasy.
Because of how terrifying the black hole was, although many Essence Guo Divine Lords knew about it, no one was willing to enter.
Gao Zhengyang put away Old Sun, changed into the Dragon Emperor Armor, waved the Blood God Flag, and charged into the huge black hole.
Black gas flowed and engulfed Gao Zhengyang.
