Chapter 412: The Final Battle (2/2)
Looking at the Zixiao Palace in front of him, Minghe waved his hands and a set of Flags of Formation disappeared into the Void. Immediately, the Three Separations emerged and then entered the Void as well. Minghe refined the Flags of Formation recently, which bore a tactical formation named the Forbidding Spell of Sealing the Sky Formation. His Three Separations commanded the formation to seal the nearby space to keep Hongjun from escaping.
After setting up, Minghe patted his hands forward and a giant Blood Qi Palmprint also patted the Zixiao Palace. The whole planet shook but the Zixiao Palace remained intact. It turned out that Minghe's Blood Qi Palmprint had been warded off by the defense tactical formation limit.
Minghe stared into the Zixiao Palace coldly, as if he had seen through it and Hongjun was right in front of him. Minghe said in a cold voice, ”Come out, Hongjun. You trapped me before and put me in a dangerous situation. Now, it's time to finish our Karma.” His words were full of killing intent.
Inside the Zixiao Palace, Hongjun gasped upon seeing Minghe. First, he did not expect that Minghe would track him down so soon. Second, Minghe was not badly injured. Otherwise, Minghe could not recover in a short 1,000 years. Minghe's words showed his intentions clearly—he had come here to finish him.
Usually, Hongjun did not need to worry. But now, his Origin was badly injured and he could not perform at his best. Moreover, he did not know Minghe's hidden tricks. If Minghe had assistants other than the Separation Beast at the Peak of the Fate Realm, he would be in an unfavorable situation.
When he first saw Minghe, Hongjun wanted to run, after all, he was still wounded. But seeing the overwhelming spatial barrier, he knew he could not escape. Apparently, Minghe would not let him do that and was going to finish him here. Hongjun could only fight.
Hongjun dashed forward and landed in the Starry Sky, then reached out to collect his Zixiao Palace. He gazed at Minghe in the distance and replied in a deep voice, ”Minghe, are you sure you want this? We'll both suffer if we really fight to the death.”
Minghe laughed at his words. ”We'll both suffer? No, only one will suffer, and that is you. When you plotted against me, you were doomed. Moreover, you seem to have injured your Origin. You can't make me suffer, can you?” Minghe had discovered that Hongjun's vital force was weak.
Hongjun's face turned slightly pale. Minghe was right. When he was at his best, Hongjun would not hesitate to act. But now, he was unable to easily scare Minghe away. Thus, he could only fight, and Hongjun held his sword firmly.
Minghe noticed that the sword had been used to chop off the branch of the Star Tree of the Origin. It now bore several cracks on its blade from the injury. Still, Minghe would not take the sword lightly.
Minghe reached out to summon the Anti-evil Axe. The axe was a Highest Grade Spiritual Treasure of Chaos, only one grade lower than Hongjun's sword. Minghe had companion treasures, the Anti-evil Axe and Soul-freezing Gourd. In the aspect of attacking, only the Anti-evil Axe could compete with the sword.
Minghe wielded the axe and shouted, ”Split the Heaven and Earth.” The strike changed everything around like the Creation of Heaven and Earth. It had the aura like the Creation of Heaven and Earth by Great Divinity Pangu. The axe split the Starry Sky and went for Hongjun, shattering everything in its way. Ripples of power wavered in the sky.
Hongjun reacted and struck out with his long sword. The sword trembled with strong fate power, as though it had cut off fate. It was indeed a wild Divine Law. The Law of Fate was a top law among the 3,000 laws. It was superior to the Law of Blood and Law of Spiritual Beings.
When the axe and the sword clashed, a strong power spread around. Everything in its way was destroyed, and several planets broke in the aftermath. However, Minghe and Hongjun were still even. No one seemed to gain the upper hand. It looked like this overwhelming battle was going to last.
Since one strike did not succeed, Minghe launched another. He chopped at Hongjun incessantly, and Hongjun fought back hard. With his highly-graded sword, Hongjun fought closely and fiercely with Minghe. The clashes were so phenomenal that space was shattered several times.
