Chapter 687: The Fall of the Deities

Two hidden deities couldn’t hold back any longer.

They weren’t about to sit idly by while Lu Ye took down the true and false world beasts; his strength was already glaringly apparent.

One-on-one combat? More like he can take on two without breaking a sweat.

Three on one should be enough to fully suppress Lu Ye. Even if they couldn’t kill him outright in a short time, they could certainly shatter this realm and then wreck the Primordial World. That would wrap up their little mission nicely.

But who would have thought Lu Ye would completely ignore the two powerful attacks that could potentially injure him?

This punch was thrown with no intention of pulling back.

This time, whether the true and false world beast lived or died, it was going down!

Lu Ye roared with a thunderous rage.

All his power surged madly into his fist.

“Die!”

The power fueling his back only served to bolster him.

With that fist, he shattered the shield around the eyeball and charged forward with all his might, slamming into the true and false eyeball itself.

Bright, blinding light erupted within the true and false eyeball.

This light flickered between reality and illusion, and in the next moment, it turned real again. Lu Ye’s body pierced through the dazzling light, leaving a massive void in his chest, and his skin was severely burned.

Blood flowed uncontrollably.

At that moment, Tian Xi Shen and Shen You Shen reached the peak of their powers, watching as the true and false world beast morphed into a ball of light, constantly shifting between real and fake.

This was the true and false world beast trying to save itself.

If it could turn this light into something fake, it could survive; otherwise, death was its fate.

That punch was just too ruthless; its destructive force had already reached a true saintly level.

This Nine Lives Celestial Lord was just too strong.

Who would’ve thought this was a Celestial Lord Realm powerhouse!

Lu Ye gasped for air like a fish out of water, the injuries he’d sustained were indeed severe. The Dao of Endless Life swirled around him, igniting to aid his recovery.

That’s the thing about the Dao of Endless Life—it burns itself out during a fight, but it’ll grow back soon enough.

Even so, Lu Ye still recovered at a snail’s pace.

These wounds were inflicted by deities; they could definitely kill Lu Ye with a single blow if they were serious.

Both sides hesitated, eyes locked anxiously on the true and false world beast.

If the true and false world beast survived, the morale on the Derived World side would surely skyrocket. With three gods teaming up against Lu Ye, even if the world beast was just there to assist, that was golden.

If the true and false world beast died, it would be a two-on-one battle next.

The light kept shifting between real and fake.

Finally, it transformed into an illusion.

Tian Xi Shen and Shen You Shen both shuddered.

At that moment, the true and false world beast seemed to turn into a mirage, slowly dissipating.

It’s dead!

A god-level true and false world beast has fallen.

Lu Ye sighed in relief—what a relief!

With the true and false world beast dead, he wouldn’t need to rely on his immortality just yet; he could hold on for a while longer.

“Kill!”

Tian Xi Shen roared in fury.

The two deities moved in unison, charging at Lu Ye.

Having recovered a third of his strength, Lu Ye let out his own roar, engaging in an epic clash with the two deities.

The entire world trembled violently; the saint-level battle placed an immense burden on Lu Ye’s realm.

Chaos surged like turbulent waves, wreaking havoc all around.

The destructive energy rippled through the world barrier like ripples on water.

Lu Ye single-handedly fought against two deities, the pressure was at its peak as he bled profusely.

His body was flung through the air repeatedly, but Lu Ye continued to fight fiercely, determined to clash with those two deities even if it meant destruction.

Tian Xi Shen and Shen You Shen felt the overwhelming pressure; even though the opponent took hits, each punch felt like an unstoppable force.

Every blow they took felt like they were being blasted with unmatched destructive power.

While they were both suffering, they were pretty sure that Lu Ye was suffering even more.

Lu Ye began to burn his essence once again.

Since starting his cultivation, he hardly burned much of his essence during battles.

His lifespan was long, practically infinite.

He reached the Celestial Lord Realm at the youngest and most energetic stage of his life.

Though he had already burned some essence fighting the true and false world beast, that was just a warm-up.

Now, Lu Ye was pushing for a limit-breaking transformation.

A wisp of flame ignited inside him.

This flame erupted like oil on fire within Lu Ye’s body.

His lifespan sparked to life.

As he burned his vitality and essence, his injuries healed rapidly, his form towering larger as he reached peak strength—blood, essence, lifespan, and energy all harmonizing into an ultimate state, now initiating a limit-breaking surge.

That terrifying force was utterly shocking.

With one punch, both deities nearly had their bodies obliterated.

With no other choice, realizing Lu Ye was focused on eliminating one of them, the duo had no option but to push themselves to the limit alongside him.

Burning everything.

The intensity of the battle surged once more.

The Celestial Lords of the Derived World were barely able to handle this—let alone engage, they couldn’t even withstand the aftershocks, constantly being pushed back.

They probably had never experienced such pressure; the battle’s aftershocks were so potent that if they didn’t retreat, they might just die in the chaos.

They retreated again and again.

The entire world was filled with a destructive aura.

Their clash transcended mere techniques; at this level, many of their powers became useless.

At this point, if Lu Ye unleashed the Taiyin Divine Sword, even draining the Taiyin would be less effective than the impact of his punch.

The destructive waves intensified.

In the chaos storm, three figures were seen colliding fiercely.

All the Celestial Lords had retreated, even to the edges of the world.

Each Celestial Lord was pressed against the world barrier, extreme fluctuations knocking against their bodies.

Some were coughing up blood, others were tearing apart, and many roared in pain.

Cracks began to form on the world barrier.

Countless beings in the Primordial World watched this scene, unable to resist praying.

Right now, Lu Ye’s world had become a giant bomb; if it couldn’t withstand the pressure and exploded, the Primordial World might not shatter.

But at the very least, the population would drop by at least ninety percent.

“Great Sage of the Nine Heavens, protect the Nine Lives Celestial Lord!”

Some cried kneeling on the ground, praying to the heavens.

“The Nine Lives Celestial Lord is invincible! The Nine Lives Celestial Lord will surely win!”

“I’d trade a thousand years of my lifespan to bless the Nine Lives Celestial Lord!”

Everyone wasn’t foolish; Lu Ye brought all the strong fighters into his world to guard this realm.

As a Celestial Lord, after slaying a deity, he now burned everything to fight off two more deities.

He was a Celestial Lord, not just a saint!
