Beck Richardson had always kept in mind the reason why he had formed an alliance with the Ancient Demon: the fruit.
Whoever obtained the fruit would be able to control the power of time. No laws in the world could restrain him.
If he felt that he was not satisfied with his life today, he could go back to yesterday and start all over again.
If he felt that his childhood had not been a happy one, he could go back in time and arrange for a rich family that did not have to worry about food and clothing. He would have endless money, receive a good education, and become the object of admiration for the girls in school and the gentleman that the boys followed.
When he felt that the Industrial Revolution had come too late and that humans should advance faster and more steadily, he could go back in time and lead the Industrial Revolution again.
The characteristic of immortality was not worth mentioning. When you controlled time, what was the point of lifespan to you?
This was not a power that humans could come into contact with. A human who controlled this power would no longer be a human but a god.
Beck Richardson felt that he could even preach and spread his teachings. He could replace God and become the only and supreme god in the world.
Anyone who had the ability and ambition would not turn a blind eye to the temptation of the fruit.
Back then, Adam and Eve could not resist such temptation and ate the Fruit of Wisdom. The snake that had tricked them was the incarnation of the devil, and the one who had tempted Beck Richardson was also a devil.
Since the fruit was about to ripen, what was the point of getting entangled with the master of the Pantheon Palace and the Unparalleled War Soul?
The most important thing was to obtain the fruit as soon as possible. Beck Richardson had been thinking about how to snatch the fruit from the hands of the two old monsters.
There was no doubt that this was the best opportunity.
Dorgon and Qing Shiguo were wily old foxes and instantly saw through Beck Richardson's thoughts. That fire. Although they were temporary allies with ulterior motives, wasn't this too unreliable?
We will resist the enemy here, and you can go and pick the fruit.
Can you even pick the fruit? Do you know how to take it out?
The ice dregs raised his intact left arm, faced the sky, and clenched his fist.
The body made of molten lava suddenly exploded, and red light penetrated the dense steam. She turned into a flaming bird with a wingspan of ten meters. She flapped her wings and produced two flaming tornadoes that wrapped around Dorgon and Qing Shiguo.
The flaming bird let out a clear cry and spat out blazing flames from its sharp beak, rushing into the flaming tornado.
Seeing this, Great-grandmother took two clumps of black mud from the dark brown ground, then reached out her hand to summon two wisps of flames, calcining the black mud into hard earth swords. Then, she infused her Qi into them and fiercely struck them out.
The shockwave exploded like thunder. The earthen sword let out the sharp sound of a tank firing a cannon.
The Earth Sword shot into the flame tornado. The high-speed spinning flame flow paused for a second, and then exploded.
The scorching heat and the molten golden flames intertwined, releasing an explosive force in all directions. The dense steam was evaporated, creating a zone without steam for a short period of time.
The fire dissipated, revealing the bodies of Qing Shi and Dorgon. One of them was burning red and translucent, while the other had wrapped himself in water superpower to extinguish the fire of the ice.
The two of them stood in the deep lava pit, the soles of their feet bubbling with lava. The edge of the pit was slightly dim, almost dry and solidified.
The flaming tornado just now had vaporized the soil, forming a lava pit.
"Your flames are still as terrifying as ever." Taking advantage of the steam being pushed away, Qing Shi breathed in and out scorching oxygen.
Although human firearms could also release high temperatures, it was only for a moment. On the other hand, the Undying Bird's flames continued to burn and heat.
The cells of the Ruler had a strong vitality and were resistant to high heat, but that attack had still burned hundreds of millions of cells.
As he spoke, Qing Shi pulled out the earth sword from his chest.
The Ruler was synonymous with endurance.
At this time, Dorgon and Qing Shi were calm and did not care about the unreliable snitch.
The reason was simple. If Beck Richardson could kill Qin Ze and Li Peiyun, he would also be able to win. Then, they would only have to face the Phoenix and the Unparalleled War Soul.
As for the ownership of the fruit, first of all, the fruit was not completely ripe. Secondly, they did not know how to take the fruit from Li Xianyu, how to absorb it, and how to refine it.
Of course, Beck Richardson would not know either.
Actually, the two old monsters had their own ideas on how to refine and absorb the fruit.
Dorgon planned to use a formation to steal Li Xianyu's power after capturing him and see if he could graft the fruit over.
Qing Shi's idea was much more violent. He planned to devour Li Xianyu directly. In the era when ancient monsters roamed freely, devouring was the most direct and effective way to obtain power.
Of course, before devouring, he would be prepared to guard against Li Xianyu's ability to turn back time. He would not devour Li Xianyu in one gulp, but would try to slowly devour and refine part of his body to see what the effects were.
The steam trembled, and a figure broke through the blockade of the steam and chased after them.
"Someone is coming!"
Guardian Ying, who had been paying attention to the situation, was the first to see Beck Richardson. "It's that foreign devil."
Everyone's expression changed drastically, and they looked over simultaneously. They saw a black figure approaching rapidly. At first, it was just a black dot, but in the blink of an eye, they could see the person's appearance clearly. He had light blue pupils, short golden hair, and was holding a Kusanagi-no. It was Beck Richardson.
At such a fast speed, it was already too late to fire at him. Furthermore, the effects would be minimal, so the Thunder Monarch did not get his subordinates to focus fire on him.
Everyone retracted their gazes and looked at Li Xianyu.
"Dan Chenzi, Li Peiyun, hold him back. Do what you can. If you can't hold him back, sound the alarm, and I'll come over immediately." After Li Xianyu said that, he looked at Qin Ze, whose red pupils flickered between clarity and ferocity.
When the time came, he would have to sacrifice the big boss.
Although Qin Ze's Essence Soul was strange, he would have to retract the Sword of Energy if he were to fight Beck Richardson.
Without the suppression of the Sword of Energy, he would not be able to stop the flesh and blood from corroding him. Even if his Essence Soul was strange, it would be useless. When the time came, the best outcome would be that his brain would still be his, but his body would no longer be under his control.
Beck Richardson did not take the opportunity to deal with the ice shards and Great-grandmother. Is it because he still has a grudge against Li Peiyun, so he decided to deal with us first?
As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Dan Chenzi and Li Peiyun charged toward the aggressive President Beck like wild dogs that had escaped from their leashes.
"How long will it take?" Wu Wu Kai asked.
"I'm not sure." Li Xianyu shook his head.
"Right Guardian and Left Guardian, you and the rest will stay behind to watch over him." The top S Classes of Bosch looked at each other and said in unison, "Get into formation!"
The Ape God let out a roar and transformed into his furry white ape form. His body grew ten feet tall, and he grew steadily until he turned into a giant ape that was more than twenty meters tall.
This was the Daoist divine power, Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth.
This was a manifestation formed from energy and was not a physical entity.
Wu Wu Kai, the Culinary God, the Earth God, the Thunder Monarch, and the Black and White Gods, the six top S Classes, entered the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth at the same time.
In an instant, the giant ape's aura surged, and he successfully broke through the level of the top S Classes and stepped into the half-step Paramount Realm.
In the past, the Ten Gods of Bosch had to form a joint attack technique to reach the half-step Paramount Realm. Moreover, it was a powerful half-step Paramount Realm. It was a level where one could exchange one or two blows with an ordinary Paramount Realm expert. To be precise, it was a level where one's explosive power could reach the Paramount Realm.
But now, among the half-step Paramount Realm experts, Li Xianyu and Li Peiyun, these half-step Paramount Realm experts could erupt with power comparable to Paramount Realm experts. However, they were still lacking compared to the experienced Paramount Realm expert, Beck Richardson. Thus, three people had to form a joint attack technique to deal with Richardson.
The top S Classes of Bosch had filled the gap left by Li Xianyu. But there was a fatal flaw, and that was that they had not practiced their joint attack technique with Li Peiyun and Dan Chenzi.
In other words, the three parties were unable to form a joint attack formation. It was equivalent to three top-notch half-step Paramount Realm experts facing Beck Richardson alone.
Li Peiyun, who cultivated the Three Talents Sword Technique and was adept in both offense and defense, took the lead and charged at President Beck. This time, he was not rash. When he was dozens of meters away, he forcefully swung the Sword of Energy. The white sword beam was like a ripple that swept toward Beck Richardson.
He did not dare to get close to him. This foreigner was too weak. Without the enhancement of the joint attack technique, the successor of the Demon Path would be dead in less than ten moves if they were to fight in close combat.
President Beck gently flicked the tip of his sword and leveled the seemingly showy but actually dispersed Sword Energy.
At that moment, Dan Chenzi threw out a talisman. The talisman ignited in the wind, and lightning condensed, forming a distorted shape that struck toward Beck Richardson.
A mere lightning talisman was naturally unable to shake President Beck.
However, this was just a pretense. The moment the twisted, tree-shaped lightning struck Beck Richardson, the talisman that should have been burnt out suddenly ignited again. Following that, a blinding light erupted.
Beck Richardson was caught off guard. His pupils were pierced by the strong light, and he subconsciously closed his eyes.
Dan Chenzi arched his back and charged forward. He condensed Qi in his palms and was prepared to use his signature move: Head Stroke.
Li Peiyun held the Sword of Energy diagonally and rushed toward Beck Richardson with large strides.
Yin Soul Dan Chenzi launched a surprise attack from behind, transforming into a sword of intent.
The giant ape waved his fist, and the force of his fist was like a collapsing mountain as he punched down.
All parties worked together to deal a fatal blow to Baker Richardson the instant he lost his sight.
They had great teamwork, and their attacks were ferocious. From the looks of it, they could really win.
Protector Ying and the rest watched with rapt attention. Their bodies unconsciously tensed up.
Beck Richardson still had his eyes closed, but at that moment, his hearing was amplified to the extreme, listening to the information transmitted through the wind. His Qi fluctuations were abnormally sharp, and he was able to capture the Qi in his surroundings.
His Spiritual Energy spread out like tendrils, forming a spiderweb. Even the slightest movement would be reflected in his mind.
Beck Richardson moved. He first turned his head and roared at the sky behind him. His Spiritual Energy traveled through the air with the help of his voice, clashing with the Sword of Intent. The collision caused his Yin Soul to be like a candle in the wind, about to be torn apart at any moment.
Following that, he took a step back, just in time to avoid Li Peiyun's sword. He lowered his waist and punched Li Peiyun's chest with his left fist. He raised his right leg and kicked Dan Chenzi, who was flying toward him, away.
His right hand, which was holding the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi, stabbed toward the sky.
The tip of the sword pierced into the giant ape's fist. Richardson infused his Qi and stirred it vigorously.
The giant ape's body crumbled inch by inch, dispersing into the most fundamental Qi that swept in all directions. As for the Thunder Emperor, Ape God, and the rest, they were blasted away by the explosive Qi. All of them spiraled into the sky and flew in all directions.
From the start of the exchange to the defeat, less than ten seconds had passed.
Even Li Peiyun, Dan Chenzi, and the rest were dumbfounded, let alone the bystanders.
Li Xianyu's face instantly turned pale.
He knew that it was not an injustice at all. Half-step Extreme Dao experts who were unable to form a combined attack technique were like stragglers. How could they defeat a veteran Extreme Dao expert like Beck Richardson?
Moreover, an Extreme Dao expert's stamina was limitless, but a half-step Extreme Dao expert's stamina was not. After a fierce battle, Li Peiyun and Dan Chenzi's stamina had been greatly depleted, and their battle power had declined greatly.
To Beck Richardson, this was like bullying a child.
Li Xianyu realized that he had placed too much trust in Li Peiyun and the rest. He had thought that even if he could not defeat Beck Richardson, he could at least hold on for a few minutes. If they cooperated well, they might even be able to hold on for longer.
There were only a few minutes left, but the Sword of Qi was gradually gaining the upper hand. In a few more minutes, the Sword Embryo would be full. When that time came, the matured Sword Embryo would be able to learn how to disperse the Ruler's flesh and blood on its own, and it would not need to rely on Li Xianyu.
"It's going to be ready soon." It seemed like the big boss's luck had run out.
He had no choice but to enter the battlefield and support Li Peiyun and the rest.
