Chapter 502: The Prey of the Strange Tree
“Omniverse Illusion Seal, three combined!”
Zhou Tong struck without any preliminaries, catching the Peacock Great Bright King completely off guard!
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the thousand-zhang long peacock was flung away, one of its massive wings torn off, its head battered to the side, and crimson blood splattering!
“My goodness, who could wield such prowess? To have such skills!”
Someone attempted to investigate by releasing Spiritual Power, but at this moment, Snow Woman moved.
With a wave of her hand, a Pseudo-Emperor-level Spiritual Power cloaked the heavens, cutting off everyone’s vision, preventing them from clearly seeing the scene.
Even Sage Peak was ineffective!
“Man-eating beast, die!”
Zhou Tong showed no mercy. Regardless of whether it was a divine beast before him or not, any creature that consumed humans would be considered a pest by him.
As for how he dealt with the Golden-Winged Roc bird back then, he was ready to handle the Peacock Great Bright King in the same way today!
“Humans, don’t overstep your limits!!”
The peacock, astonishingly, stabilized its figure, its body glowing with light, instantly healing its wounds.
At this level, one does not vanish with just a single strike. To slay it would require a long and arduous battle.
After all, this beast’s strength might even surpass Pure Joy Buddha, infinitely approaching the Sage Ninth Layer.
“Hmph, a beast that has learned to speak human language. Unfortunately, no matter how much you mimic, you remain merely a beast!”
Zhou Tong spoke bluntly and immediately merged the Three Elements, his body glowing with a bright light as he entered the state of Authority Fusion.
“Authority of Law, Judgement!”
He aimed at the opponent, cradled a radiant star river in his hands, and then hurled it forward.
In the face of such an attack, the peacock did not dodge in the slightest, its eyes brimming with mockery.
It was an ancient divine beast with unmatched talent and a stunning life force, daring to meet any challenge head-on.
Its massive mouth opened wide and, in sweeping gulps, the star river was completely swallowed into its belly.
“Since you dared to eat this, watch out for indigestion!”
Zhou Tong sneered coldly, clenching his hand suddenly, causing the starlight in its stomach to explode.
“Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!!”
Deafening sounds thundered through the heavens, yet the peacock remained unmoved, its eyes gleaming with mockery. Its own body was as Impregnable as ever, resistant to significant internal explosions.
“Is it over, human? Once it ends, die!”
With a roar, the peacock’s mouth emanated mysterious light, spilling forth in an overwhelming torrent that nearly engulfed the heavens.
This light was no ordinary thing—it could dissolve defenses and even destroy the spirit.
Though it was aimed specifically at Zhou Tong, the covered area was far too wide. Avoiding it would surely endanger those below.
“Recasting Authority, Void First!”
Zhou Tong brought his hands together into the shape of a vase, and in an instant, a mysterious energy coalesced, turning into a rolling torrent that clashed with the mysterious light!
For a period, both forces were evenly matched. Although Recasting Authority could decompose everything, the stream of light seemed endless as if it would never cease.
“Huh!!”
Right at this moment, Zhou Tong’s ears rang with the sound of explosive energy, indicating the arrival of a Strong Warrior.
Their actions were too loud. If they couldn’t resolve the battle quickly, a Sage Ninth Layer powerful individual might arrive, and then they would be in trouble.
Snow Woman was powerful, but she was only a thread of divine awareness now, and she probably couldn’t stand up to so many warriors.
“It’s time to finish!”
Without hesitation, Zhou Tong’s black hair turned snow-white, as he entered the fourth layer, the Jade Demon Body state of the Joyful Harmony Celestial Skill, causing his aura to increase dramatically!
“Thi-…”
Seeing this, Snow Woman froze.
Among their Ancient Divine Clan’s ultimate skills, there were similar techniques. Zhou Tong’s abilities invoked within her a deep sense of familiarity.
“Sword One, Heaven and Earth Dust!”
“Sword Two, Ink Stain!”
Zhou Tong generated the Black Sword in the palm of his hand, unleashing the Sword Path!
In an instant, sunlight dimmed, stars hid, and the entire world was dragged into the ink-like darkness, as though about to be assimilated.
The Peacock Great Bright King also sensed the impending danger and struggled fiercely, creating a space for itself.
Yet, it still hadn’t noticed the words “Peacock” that had appeared above its head, the very embodiment of its origin.
“Sword Three, Name-Sever!”
With a whoosh, Zhou Tong’s attack arrived abruptly. The black gleam sliced through the name, gently breaking the character ‘孔’ (Kong), leaving behind just the character ‘雀’ (Que)!
Suddenly, the thousand-zhang peacock shrunk, its vibrant colors disappearing entirely, the mysterious light in its mouth extinguishing, its vital force plummeting, as if it had lost all characteristics!
“It’s over!”
Zhou Tong exhaled, and subsequently, he released a Spirit Talisman.
“Spirit Seal 97, Omniversal Great Seal!”
This was the ultimate skill that sealed the Pure Joy Buddha, surely enough to subdue a small sparrow.
But suddenly, his Void Self Realm reacted!
“Boom!!!”
A sudden change occurred! Flames flowed from the peacock’s body, illuminating the heavens and shattering the seal!
“Phoenix Origin!”
Zhou Tong’s eyes widened, not expecting the peacock to possess such a life-saving ace.
“Human, you will pay for your arrogance!”
With the Phoenix Origin, the peacock immediately recovered to its peak condition, even growing stronger than before.
With its wings spread wide, spanning three thousand zhang, it hurtled forward, carrying an unparalleled destructive force!
“Then let’s see whose body is stronger!”
As Zhou Tong spoke, he raised his hand but then paused, lowering his arm again. His Void Self Realm revealed yet another glimpse of the future; he’d no longer need to intervene.
In the next moment, a Pure Land appeared over his head. As the Pure Land opened, countless branches extended out, stabbing toward the peacock.
The attacker was none other than Lai Fu, also known as the Strange Tree. Its favorite meal was Sages, but it also particularly savored Divine Beasts!
