In the illusion, Nine Gloom watched as his God Territory descended, shrouding all his enemies, including the golden-masked man. Without hesitation, he summoned Giant Sarcoma, Crimson Eye, the three-tailed snake lady, and several other overlord-level revenants.
In his God Territory, revenants could be summoned repeatedly, but it would consume a lot of Divine Power. And this kind of consumption could be replenished by retrieving the revenants.
However, in the previous battle with Silver Armor, a large number of revenants had been annihilated, and he was unable to replenish his Divine Power. This caused his Divine Power to be depleted by nearly 70%, and even his God's soul was severely damaged. His condition had deteriorated significantly.
Now that he did not have much Divine Power left, he dared not expend it too much. Therefore, when facing the golden-masked man this time, he could only summon a few overlord-level revenants to assist in the battle. He dared not fight with the enemy in numbers.
However, for Nine Gloom, this was enough.
With a few overlord-level powerhouses joining the battlefield, the pressure on him was much less.
Moreover, in his God Territory, his Divine Power recovery speed was several times faster. As long as he did not use any ultimate skills, it was almost impossible for his Divine Power to be depleted, and he did not have to worry about the enemy exhausting his Divine Power. On the contrary, the longer he delayed, the more Divine Power in his body would recover, and the better it would be for him.
After the God Territory descended, the original situation on the battlefield quickly reversed.
Nine Gloom, who had been in a suppressed state, quickly began to kill in all directions with the help of a few revenants.
Under the joint efforts of Nine Gloom and the revenants, the teams were quickly divided and slaughtered, and their numbers decreased.
Just as Nine Gloom was getting into a killing frenzy, an inexplicable sense of danger suddenly rose in his heart.
Before he could figure out where this sense of danger was coming from, he felt a sharp pain coming from his body.
He looked down and saw that his body had been cut in half by a red bolt of lightning.
When he raised his head again, everything in front of him began to disintegrate.
The revenants that he had summoned, the imperial monsters that were fighting fiercely with the revenants, the golden-masked man in the distance, and the God Territory that he had summoned …
Everything disintegrated and dissipated like broken glass. The only thing that remained was the red lightning that had sliced him in half just now.
"An illusion?!" Nine Gloom instantly understood that he did not know when he had fallen into his opponent's trap.
He raised his head again and looked at the source of the red lightning. There were three figures standing there.
The one who chopped him at the waist was a black-robed man wearing a black mask.
However, he quickly shifted his attention away from the black-robed man because he saw an eight-armed monk not far from the black-robed man. At this moment, there were nine gigantic sword formations in front of the monk, ready to be unleashed, and their target was him!
Without a second thought, Nine Nether immediately turned into a myriad of serpent vines and fled in all directions.
The reason why he was so determined to escape was that the black-robed man's saber had almost taken half his life.
He had less than a tenth of his Divine Power left after this slash, so he could not fight anymore.
However, he'd just moved when the millions of sword lights in the sky poured down like a rainstorm, and they completely enveloped him.
Lin Huang did not attack again when he saw Saber9's sword formation encompassing the area within a radius of several hundred kilometers.
That attack just now was almost his strongest attack, and it was a huge burden on his body.
On one hand, he needed to let his body rest a little.
On the other hand, he was also secretly summarizing what he had gained from that earlier attack.
Twelve levels of compounded sequence power, in addition to Sword Dao heavenly rule.
An attack like that was enough to kill most ordinary ninth-rank Heavenly Gods.
However, Nine Nether had taken the attack without putting up any defenses, and he had not died.
Lin Huang could clearly sense that the moment he struck his opponent, his opponent's body had instantly unleashed massive amounts of Divine Power and sequence power, counteracting the impact and erosion of the attack.
In the end, it looked like he had chopped his opponent at the waist, but in reality, his opponent had not suffered any substantial damage. He had only lost a portion of his Divine Power and Rule Bending Power.
"Looks like I really can't be careless when facing a top heavenly god-level powerhouse. The richness of Nine Nether's Divine Power and the number of rules he's mastered far surpass mine. He didn't even have time to use any defensive techniques, so he didn't suffer any substantial damage from my attack. If I were to fight him one-on-one, I'm afraid my attack wouldn't even be able to break his defense. However, if he were to hit me with a casual attack, I'd almost certainly die. There's an absolute difference in ability here.
"Among Heavenly Gods, there are many powerhouses whose abilities are comparable to or even stronger than Nine Nether's. Not to mention the half-step lord-level powerhouses who are even stronger … "
After reviewing the situation, the sense of crisis in Lin Huang's heart grew even stronger.
He had thought that his current ability was already quite good. However, now that he had encountered a true powerhouse, he could clearly see the gap between them.
While Lin Huang was still reviewing the situation in his heart, Virtuoso, who was next to him, had already used their Divine Telekinesis to cover an area of several thousand kilometers to prevent Nine Nether from escaping.
The golden rain of swords continued for several minutes before finally stopping.
The entire area covered by the sword formation had been bombarded into a crater. Not even a single microorganism could survive in the entire area, let alone vegetation. Nine Nether was nowhere to be seen.
"By the looks of it, he must have been killed," Saber9 said somewhat uncertainly after putting the sword formation away and scanning the area with his Divine Telekinesis.
Virtuoso did not reply immediately. They seemed to have scanned the area with their Divine Telekinesis a few times before speaking, "Indeed, my Divine Telekinesis didn't detect any signs of living beings. Furthermore, when you attacked, my Divine Telekinesis covered the entire area the entire time. I didn't notice any black vines escaping your attack range … "
"So, are we going to raid his lair next?" Saber9 was relieved.
"I keep feeling that … things are going a little too smoothly." Virtuoso looked at Lin Huang as soon as they finished speaking.
"I feel the same way." Lin Huang nodded slightly. "This fellow was able to emerge as the final winner in this fight for supremacy. It's unlikely that we'll be able to kill him so easily."
"I think it's normal for him to fail miserably at such an easy task." Saber9 was sufficiently confident in his own ability. He felt that Nine Nether, who had little Divine Power left, could not possibly have survived the sword formation earlier.
Lin Huang could not be bothered to continue debating on this topic. "Actually, it doesn't matter whether he's dead or alive anymore. Given the state he was in earlier, even if he were still alive, he wouldn't be a hindrance to us. We'll leave after taking the shard, and we'll never see him again. "
"Now that you mention it, why do I feel a little hopeful that he's still alive?" Saber9 said with a smile, "I'm just worried that he won't show himself. If he dares to, we'll destroy him immediately to prevent future trouble!"
Virtuoso said nothing more. Instead, they turned to look in the direction of Nine Nether's lair.
"Let's go!"
As soon as they finished speaking, they dashed out quickly. Lin Huang and Saber9 hurriedly caught up with them, and together, they dashed toward Nine Nether's lair, which was not far away.
