CHAPTER 734: BATTLEFIELD 674 SIX

’Hmm??’ Suddenly, Li Chengyi’s gaze halted.

The consciousness power these more than ten red-eyed Saints brought him was actually more than what he had obtained from burning so many Void Colossal Beasts combined!

’Is the replenishment this significant??’

His interest was instantly piqued.

His body began to continue flying deeper into the Void Faction, attempting to find more red-eyed Saints.

But he had only flown tens of thousands of kilometers inward when—

Hiss!!

Suddenly, a giant green flame violently exploded above one of his squirrel heads.

With a thunderous boom, Li Chengyi was engulfed in the green fire and disappeared from sight.

The White Behemoths that were following and surging behind him also dissolved into toxic green fog amid the abrupt explosion.

"What is this!?"

Inside the Huan Meng Pavilion, Qing Ming, who was watching, slightly shuddered, showing a solemn expression.

"It’s the Dimensional being making their move," Lan Meng nodded. "The Dimensional Demon God level in the Void Faction corresponds to the Void Pontiff."

"That’s true, they wouldn’t let Bai Lu consume and burn the Saint Positions so recklessly, even if they have far more Saint Positions than us, they couldn’t possibly allow such wastage," Qing Ming nodded in agreement with a serious tone.

"If it’s the Void Pontiff, I wonder if Bai Lu can handle it. That blast just now, on any other day, could have instantly devoured and destroyed a vast expanse of the Black Sea Blind Spot," Qing Ming said gravely.

Just from the light screen released by Lan Meng, he could sense the terrifying power of that explosion.

"No need to worry... With the special strength of Eternal Vitality, Junior Brother Bai Lu at most might suffer some minor..."

Lan Meng’s words were suddenly cut short, and the smile on his face also paused abruptly.

He frowned and focused on the light screen.

In the light screen, Li Chengyi’s current situation was slowly becoming apparent.

Not a single hair harmed!

The mouse head that was hit by the explosion didn’t just avoid injury—it didn’t even have a single hair out of place.

His whole body was still radiating golden light, completely unscathed.

Lan Meng watched Li Chengyi with a frown, with his Omniscient Realm knowledge, he shouldn’t have made an erroneous judgment.

But his Junior Brother had a Cyclical Seal on him, forcing Lan Meng to analyze and conjecture based on external information.

And the key issue was that his analysis was way off...

"It seems my Junior Brother is hiding more secrets than I thought..." he implied meaningfully.

"If not for that, how could our master have accepted him exceptionally?" Qing Ming, although also shocked, could understand somewhat. "After all, when our master took in Junior Brother, he hadn’t even achieved the Saint Position."

"Interesting..." Lan Meng smiled again, "Let’s see then, just how far Junior Brother can resist."

He had originally planned to intervene, but now he was in no hurry.

Inside the Void Faction.

Li Chengyi’s body shone with golden light, like the sun, furiously incinerating all the Void Colossal Beasts that approached him.

The green flame explosion just now was useless to him.

"You may continue," he said calmly with his nine heads, one hand holding the Tri-pointed Halberd as his four hooves casually and leisurely stepped forward.

It was as though he was taking a walk in the void.

He had guessed that it was the Dimensional Demon Gods of the Void Faction who had taken action.

As for which Dimension it was, he did not know, nor was he clear about it; even knowing would actually be of no use.

When facing an unknown Dimension, all he could do was resist staunchly.

Boom!!

In an instant, another green explosion occurred, bursting open from his abdomen.

This explosion was smaller than the previous one, but its power increased by who knows how many times in a moment.

An indescribable, chilling pain pierced into Li Chengyi’s body from his belly but was quickly engulfed and shattered by the wildly expanding Life Vitality Imprint.

It was like a tiger charging into a sea of a billion wolves.

Although the analogy might be an exaggeration, it was indeed the case.

The mature dimensional power of the opponent was like a tiger, while the expanding power of Li Chengyi’s Life Vitality Imprint was indeed much lower in level.

But lower level doesn’t mean useless.

So before the tiger could even start to bite, it was instantly burst apart by the countless wolves.

"Oh? Are you targeting my weaknesses now?" Li Chengyi’s expression remained unchanged as his body rapidly transformed, twisting and swiftly returning to human form.

In the face of such an enemy, a large size did not bring much advantage.

On the contrary, shrinking to his customary human form made it easier to handle the situation.

After transforming into a human, Li Chengyi wore a white robe and held the Tri-pointed Halberd, his eyes scanning his surroundings as he focused intently on finding the presence of the enemy.

But no matter how he used his consciousness power to scan, he could not sense its presence.

’Since it is on the dimensional level, perhaps I should use dimensional perception to locate it.’

This was his first time facing a Dimensional Demon God as a complete equal.

Previously, against the Soul Whale, he had no power to resist and could only endure stoically.

But now it was different...

Boom!!

Another explosion occurred, right in front of his face, with the power climbing tens of times more than before, the firelight directly attacked Li Chengyi’s eyeballs.

This time, an even more distinct, chilling pain pierced into Li Chengyi’s mind.

Yet it was equally futile as before, dwarfed by the ocean-like expansive power of the Life Vitality Imprint, this cold intrusion was once again annihilated instantly.

At this time, in a dimension space burning with green light.

A figure with a black body, over a dozen pairs of arms, and wearing a black crown was staring intently at a green sun in the distance.

Yes, that green sun was Li Chengyi, as he appeared in this dimension.

He was so powerfully formidable that even in this toxic dimension, he manifested with the terrifying force of a star.

"I have gathered all the surrounding toxins onto him as much as possible, but..." the Void Pontiff spoke gravely.

"This guy’s body is too exaggerated, its density is who knows how many times that of other Holy Bodies! I can’t interfere with his insides; the consumption required is too great, beyond my capacity. I can only make small, localized adjustments to attack or attack via extremely close proximity!"

Another figure of the Void Pontiff appeared not far away, also speaking with gravity.

Dimensional Demon Gods can represent the existence of their opponents in their own dimension, describing them as an entity within their dimension space.

Their dimension was predicated on the concept of poison as a measure. So here, all the green flames, each one, represented the toxins that an individual entity contained within their body.

Every creature possesses toxins.

The concept of poison is relative. Theoretically, any factors that are detrimental to the natural development and survival of all things can be termed toxins.

In the beginning, upon discovering the extremely terrifying internal expansion force within Li Chengyi, the two Void Pontiffs intended to define this internal pressure as a deadly poison inherent to Li Chengyi himself, using it to induce spontaneous explosion.

But unfortunately, they failed.

The internal pressure from the Life Vitality Imprint, while harmful to Li Chengyi, also fundamentally contributed to his currently incredibly solid and terrifying physique.

Therefore, it could not be defined as a deadly poison.

Thus, they could only make use of other individuals around them, drawing upon their poisons to converge on Li Chengyi in an attempt to disrupt his insides.

In this dimension, Li Chengyi couldn’t resist or defend.

He could only allow them to manipulate him.

Since the Void Pontiffs were all born of the same Void Mother, they shared the same dimension.

Together, they finally succeeded in amassing the majority of the deadly poison in the vicinity upon Li Chengyi’s person.

This resulted in an exaggerated display like a green sun.

But...

It was useless...

"...Who on earth is this guy?" the first Void Pontiff who appeared swallowed his saliva, his voice dry.

They themselves were also transformed from other races, hence they possessed consciousness. They weren’t mindless monsters; otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to resist the many from the Omniscient Faction.

But at this moment, faced with someone who is not Omniscient and stands in place, allowing their attacks, they couldn’t even harm him...

This was too much...

"The poison is doing too little damage... All this time corroding and invading, and only a few hundred surface cells were poisoned to death," another Void Pontiff gritted his teeth.

"What do we do!?"

"Retreat! This person is definitely an important figure from Tian Ju Pavilion. If we call for reinforcements to detain him, it will surely please Mother immensely!"

The two exchanged a glance and rapidly retreated from the deadly poison dimension.

At this moment in the void, Li Chengyi’s eyes turned a faint blood color, and he instantly entered the Lifeforce Dimension space.

Within the dimension, two bundles of Lifeforce Lines, as conspicuous as light bulbs, suddenly appeared before his eyes.

’Found them!’ His heart rejoiced.

Immediately, his consciousness moved as he focused his spirit, furiously beginning to sever one of the Lifeforce Line bundles.

As long as the Lifeforce wasn’t completely severed and a little remained, the creature would quickly weaken.

This was the result of his previous tests and experiments.

So as long as it wasn’t completely severed, leaving just one or two strands would put the opponent on the verge of death.

Then, in reality, a direct kill could resolve the opponent completely.

This was his deduced method of confrontation.

’The offensive and defensive battle between Dimensional Demon Gods seems to be like this. It’s about who finds the other first, with the finder gaining a significant advantage.

If both parties find each other, then it’s about who can withstand more.’

Li Chengyi started to laboriously sever the Lifeforce Lines of the opponent using his Consciousness Power.

Regrettably, the two beings kept moving back, attempting to flee.

He’d only cut less than a tenth when they rapidly pulled away, disappearing from his sensing range.

’What a pity...’ Li Chengyi exited the dimension, rubbing his temples, feeling like he’d wasted his Consciousness Power.

’But luckily, I’ve confirmed how to deal with adversaries of the same level. It seems at this level, it’s mainly a battle of Consciousness Power. No wonder the main cultivation methods of the sects aim to enhance Consciousness Power.

And no wonder the Nine Star strength of Eternal Vitality, left neglected in the corner of the sect, no one continues to explore or touch.’

Li Chengyi understood in his heart.

His body was strong now, but without capturing the opponent within a dimension, he could not even find their trace.

If the opponent just hid within their own dimension without showing themselves, there was simply no way to attack.

’I’ll just continue to clear up the other soldiers then.’ He let go of his distractions and started to rapidly incinerate the surrounding Void Colossal Beasts.

But at that moment, the rectangular token at his waist heated up and vibrated rapidly.

Li Chengyi’s expression changed, and he immediately attempted to retreat and fly back.

But it was already too late.

Hiss!!

A strange noise, like that of tearing paper, penetrated his ears.

It was extremely unpleasant to the ear.

In the instant he heard the noise, Li Chengyi’s whole body froze in place, as if he were a bug trapped in amber.

The billion-degree high temperature flames at his side instantly went from gold to white, then from white to bright yellow, and then quickly to a faint red. Finally, with a ’poof,’ they lost their shape as flames entirely, turning into ordinary heat flow.

Similarly, Li Chengyi’s incredibly hard, high-density skin on the surface of his body also rapidly degraded at that moment.

In just a few seconds, it weakened to a strength similar to that of an ordinary Void Colossal Beast.

In the void, a pale arm stretched out abruptly in front of Li Chengyi.

The arm was slender and withered, with fingers adorned with black bone rings.

Its fingers extended gently, turning into claws, and reached for Li Chengyi’s head.

Poof.

In the instant of contact with the head.

Li Chengyi’s head.

Exploded.

His entire body burst like a balloon, disintegrating into countless fragments, scattering in all directions.

At the same time, within Huan Meng Pavilion’s great hall.

A vague figure emerged out of thin air, the silhouette rapidly solidifying, and soon it took the form of Li Chengyi’s body just moments before.

"How does it feel to be caught by the Omniscient for the first time?" Lan Meng asked with a smile while holding a leg of meat, slowly tearing and chewing on it.

"..." Li Chengyi had no words, closing his eyes to thoroughly reflect on the sensation he’d just experienced...

He’d been wiped out in an instant.

It was a first-time feeling for him!
