Chapter 875: 220. Slay the Absolute Pinnacle in Battle! The Strongest Ascension (6,000 words)_2



When he turned eighteen, after reaching adulthood, he traveled through the various temples and sects of Tuoya Country, dueling with masters and remaining undefeated. He gathered his Dao's Dharma Aspect.

After twenty, he traveled to neighboring countries. Except for fighting to a draw with Emperor Li, who was then just the fourth prince, in Tang Country, he met no opponents. Even in the battle with Emperor Li, both made a breakthrough: they both ascended to the Mortality-Shedding stage, officially transcending the mortal condition.

At twenty-one, he succeeded as Pope. At twenty-two, warfare with the Outer Realm erupted, marking a decade of bloodshed, a decade shrouded in darkness. During these ten years, he advanced from the Mortality-Shedding stage to Ascension, then to the Absolute Pinnacle. He gradually became the peak combat force of the Federation! And he was only 30 years old that year.

Afterward, he absorbed Dahei Jialuo's bloodline, becoming the strongest Demigod at the Absolute Pinnacle within the Human Race. After defeating the demigods of the Outer Realm, he represented the Tuoya State and, with fifty-five other states, established the Polaris Federation.

After the Federation was established, he returned to Tuoya State. For fifty years, regardless of outside changes or the development of the Federation, he maintained strict control over Tuoya, impenetrable and steadfast, being mockingly referred to in private by the higher-ups of the Eastern Administrative Region as the Galan King.

As for Old Mr. Bai, although he was also a remarkable figure of his time, he was far beneath him. Authority aside, in Xida State, Old Mr. Bai never stood over an entire state. Regarding power, though both were honored as demigods, Old Mr. Bai was merely an Ascension demigod, whereas Galan Houde was an Absolute Pinnacle demigod, highlighting a significant power disparity.

Therefore, Galan Houde never regarded Old Mr. Bai at any moment.

As a result, upon witnessing Old Mr. Bai dare to speak so arrogantly, his usually good upbringing barely restrained the thin anger rising within him.

He coldly eyed Old Mr. Bai, too indifferent to reply, extending his right hand behind him and softly said, "The rain comes."

With just that simple statement, the pitch-black sky suddenly changed. Dark clouds gathered, tangling and twisting together. In an instant, glittering droplets began to fall slowly, becoming faster, transforming into a downpour that fell like large and small beads hitting a jade plate.....

...

Meanwhile.

In the Spirit Realm, approximately 100 kilometers from Congyun City, within the forest.

Fang Ze and his group were sprinting toward Congyun City with incredible speed.

However, just then, the Ice Phoenix, which had been hovering above, suddenly let out a piercing cry. Lan Bing's internal alarms immediately went off, and she exclaimed, "Wait a moment!"

Upon hearing her, Fang Ze and his group immediately halted, dispersing into a combat formation for vigilance.

But one second, two seconds, three seconds passed... and nothing happened.

The crowd couldn't help but look at Lan Bing, wanting to ask what happened.

In response, they saw Lan Bing's face, originally expressionless, grow colder and piercing as she pointed toward Congyun City in the distance.

They followed her finger, seeing the sky had become engulfed with an immense surge of Power of Laws unbeknownst to them.

The Power of Laws had formed a massive cloudstorm, layering and spiraling downward like a waterspout.

"This... is?"

Fang Ze hesitated, staring at the terrifying celestial phenomenon in the distance.

Lan Bing, without a change in expression, said, "A demigod is making moves in the Real World. Triggering changes in heaven and earth."

Fang Ze's gaze tightened, then he again looked up at the horrific celestial phenomenon stretching across the sky for hundreds of miles, feeling somewhat shocked.

Having recently advanced to the Yang Transformation stage, Fang Ze truthfully felt a bit proud and smug, thinking of himself as a master.

Yet, when witnessing the bizarre scene caused by a demigod's full-force action, he felt a sense of powerlessness for the first time. It was the first time he realized how small he truly was.

'Is the gap really this vast?'

'Are we all just ants before achieving demigod status?'

...

At this time, in front of Congyun City.

Under the expansive curtain of rain, Tuoya State's army had already retreated several miles, quietly awaiting the outcome. Meanwhile, within Congyun City, many defenders braved the rain to set up additional fortifications, hoping to gain an edge for the impending war.

As for Old Mr. Bai, in the very center of the rainfall, he stood aloft in the air, allowing the rain to drench his clothes.

He gazed at Galan Houde, his deep voice resonating through the rain, "Honestly, I've never quite understood those who practice no martial arts, focusing solely on their powers."

"Do you not know that all power and martial arts, once reaching a certain mechanism, will revert to simplicity, seeking the essence from the complex?"

"It has never been the magnitude of power in contests of masters, but rather the circulation of the Qi Mechanism and the grasp of timing."

"A million blades can kill, but a single blade can kill just the same."

Listening to Old Mr. Bai's words, Galan Houde glanced at him indifferently, bringing forth his left hand from behind him, "The wind rises."

Accompanying the fall of his words, gales swept forth, rain mingling with the raging winds, turning swiftly into sharp knives, stripping and cutting through all.

Especially resisting these with Galan Houde's understanding of the Power of Laws was unstoppable by anything.

Therefore, in just moments, Old Mr. Bai's clothes were shredded into fragments, exposing his chiselled physique.

The demigod's body should be incomparably tough, unscathed by anything. Yet, amidst the wind and rain, his body was easily gouged with slash marks, evidently showing that Galan Houde didn't rush forward to battle head-on with his superior strength. Instead, he adhered to his usual combat style to gradually weaken his foe.
