Chapter 103: God vs. God

The black clouds from the underwater volcanic eruption surged into the sky, and countless crimson flying stones drew fiery lines across the firmament, scattering in all directions.

After the Tianyang Puppet stood up from the sea, he slightly turned his head, and his eyes emitted an unsettling red light.

He took large strides in the direction of Wanxian Island.

"Boom!"

With one step, he stirred up a hundred-meter-high giant wave.

The Tianyang Puppet strode forward amidst the shaking earth and sea.

Seemingly slow, but actually extremely fast.

He was getting closer and closer to Wanxian Island.

Along the way, the tsunamis he stirred up with his Dragon-like strides and Tiger-like steps destroyed countless islands.

Suddenly, the Tianyang Puppet's massive body abruptly stopped.

Because the sky suddenly darkened.

The Tianyang Puppet looked up:

An inverted mountain, dozens of times larger than him, suddenly appeared above his head.

The mountain body almost occupied his entire field of vision, and he could vaguely see the beasts and trees upon it.

"Fellow Daoist, please stop!"

At the same time, a cold voice, tinged with a hint of killing intent, echoed in the sky.

The mountain peak, like a drill, pressed down from above!

The Tianyang Puppet's face was arrogant, and he let out a roar, extending his arms upwards.

He fiercely collided with the inverted mountain that was smashing down.

A shockwave, centered on them, suddenly burst forth.

Li Fan and Zhang Haobo, who were watching the battle from afar, were suddenly swept by this shockwave, nearly becoming like floating duckweed in the wind, unable to even steady their figures.

A look of horror appeared on their faces.

Soon after, a series of explosions slowly followed.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

…

The two looked again, only to see the inverted mountain body continuously falling, and the Tianyang Puppet's waist slowly bending under the pressure.

His feet were directly embedded in the seabed, continuously emitting crashing and roaring sounds.

"Tian…"

On his body, dark red light flowed, becoming increasingly bright and dazzling, even surpassing the great sun in the sky.

"Yang…"

The Tianyang Puppet looked up at the inverted mountain he was propping up with his hands, his eyes overflowing with madness and defiance.

With continuous creaking sounds, his hunched body slowly straightened.

The enormous mountain body was also lifted bit by bit towards the sky.

"Hmph!"

Seeing that the Tianyang Puppet remained unyielding, a cold snort echoed again between heaven and earth.

Above the inverted mountain, several illusory peaks of various shapes faintly emerged.

Together, they formed a mysterious formation, and a vast and mighty aura immediately appeared.

The inverted mountain above suddenly seemed to increase in weight several times over.

The parts of the Tianyang Puppet's body below his head were suddenly pressed into the sea.

The surrounding seawater was completely pushed away, forming a circle of giant waves that spread in all directions.

The cracked, lava-filled seabed was revealed.

Under the collision, the earth was continuously eroded.

And the Puppet's lower limbs were crushed little by little under this immense pressure.

Soon, the Tianyang Puppet was left with only his upper body struggling to support himself.

It seemed that defeat was not far off.

"A life…"

"Never weaker than others…"

He was still repeating that sentence.

After repeating it several times, only the Tianyang Puppet's head remained.

At the bottom of the inverted mountain, he angrily opened his eyes.

"Never weaker than others!"

His head suddenly exploded.

Transforming into crimson lava.

In the Congyun Seabed, the earth's fire erupted again with a roar.

Countless magma and the lava formed by the Tianyang Puppet converged into one place, forming a fire person.

This newly re-formed Tianyang Puppet, with flames boiling and rolling on his body like a fire Dragon, charged head-on towards the inverted mountain.

"Boom!"

He drilled in from the mountain peak below and passed through the mountain body.

Amidst continuous explosions, cracks continuously appeared on the inverted mountain.

Finally, the fire Dragon broke out of the mountain body from its bottom.

It roared into the sky.

A moment later, it transformed back into human form.

He coldly stared at the inverted mountain below him.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

…

The massive inverted mountain exploded with a roar.

Countless fragments fell like meteorites.

Landing on the black seabed formed after the lava cooled.

"How interesting. As expected of a successor of the ancient Body Transformation Dao."

With the inverted mountain destroyed, that voice in heaven and earth sounded again.

There was no expected rage, but rather an excited tone.

"With the aptitude of a Golden Core, after thousands of years, to possess such strength…"

Above the Tianyang Puppet's head, the several illusory mountain peaks became increasingly real.

Seemingly provoked by the words "Golden Core aptitude," the Tianyang Puppet let out another roar, unwilling to be outdone, and contended with the illusory mountain peaks.

"If you want to fight, let's change places."

At this moment, a lazy female voice sounded.

Between heaven and earth, it suddenly darkened.

Li Fan and Zhang Haobo looked up, only to see that the sun had disappeared from the sky at some unknown time.

It was as if a large hole had been torn in the firmament.

Inside, stars twinkled, like the night sky.

Gauzy starlight fell, landing on the Tianyang Puppet.

"Roar!"

He only had time to let out a roar before his massive figure disappeared.

"Good! Let's change places and have a good fight!"

The several illusory mountain peaks also disappeared with him.

The cracked firmament slowly closed, and the stars gradually vanished.

The sun was bright, and heaven and earth were quiet, still appearing calm and serene.

Only this nearby Congyun Sea region, which had been almost shattered, faintly recounted the astonishing battle that had just occurred.

"The two people who just appeared should be the Soul Transformation Stage Cultivators of Wanxian Island."

"Such demeanor truly inspires longing."

It was also Li Fan's first time witnessing a Soul Transformation grandmaster personally taking action, and he couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion, unable to control himself.

When he came to his senses, he turned his head to look.

Zhang Haobo, beside him, was also in a daze, the shock on his face lingering for a long time.

"It seems that the illusion formed by the Cloud Water Illusion Dream Skill still cannot compare to personal experience. Otherwise, after truly seeing Crimson Flame Burning Sea, I would certainly not be awed by this Soul Transformation battle," Li Fan mused.

Immediately releasing his Binding Insect Divine Power, Li Fan spoke, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, how do you feel?"

Zhang Haobo was startled and came to his senses.

His Spiritual Qi instantly surged, and twenty-four Sea-Stabilizing Swords instantly appeared around him.

"Hm?" Li Fan tilted his head, looking at him.

Remembering something, Zhang Haobo's aura paused, and he withdrew his blue water swords.

He awkwardly rubbed his head, then bowed to Li Fan, saying solemnly, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for saving my life."

Li Fan laughed heartily and waved his hand, "It was a small matter. Fellow Daoist Zhang, with your Refining Qi Mid-Stage cultivation, you were able to fight seventeen Puppets alone."

"The sky full of flying water swords, suppressing all the Puppets, was truly impressive!"

Zhang Haobo quickly shook his head, "I can't compare to Fellow Daoist's Divine Ability."

Then, he looked up at the sky again, with a somewhat wistful expression, "Originally, I went from a Mortal to the Refining Qi Mid-Stage in just over a year. I was a little smug in my heart, but after seeing a true great Divine Ability user today, I finally understood."

"In their eyes, a mere Qi Refinement Stage is no different from an ant."

Li Fan spoke to comfort him, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, there's no need to be discouraged. With your talent, in time, you might also become such a great Divine Ability user."
