Chapter 662: The Strongest Counterattack

Isis’s voice quickly spread to everyone’s mind, including the mental domains of the three mages who had remained in observation.

As expected, the three young mages exchanged glances and finally made a crucial decision. They began to secretly gather powerful spiritual energy, using their own methods to assist Xu Yang.

"Xu Yang, as a mark of my respect for you having just shattered my Law of Light, this will be my only strike in today's battle. If you can truly create a miracle, I will not attack anyone else in your team; that is my promise to you. Of course, there's no need for you to feel even a hint of joy, because my promise is unlikely to ever come true. Even if all of you combine your strength, it will be utterly incapable of stopping my strongest attack!"

In an instant, an unparalleled spiritual halo rapidly condensed above Chenxi Sunset’s head. The moment this halo perfectly fused with the Sword of Light in his hand, Xu Yang was astonished to find that all the light elements around Chenxi Sunset’s body seemed to undergo an unprecedented qualitative change.

This was the true power unique to Chenxi Sunset, one of the Four Divine Generals of the God Realm, and it was the supreme divine power that none of Xu Yang's team could currently contend with.

"My goodness, it turns out that when someone is strong enough, even light can become a materialized form! Chenxi Sunset, although your character is truly insignificant, your strength has earned the respect of your Grandpa Long Kun."

Chenxi Sunset completely ignored Long Kun's rude remark and continued to concentrate on condensing his ultimate fatal sword. Simultaneously, he silently aimed his blade's edge towards Long Kun's direction.

"I will make you understand that disrespectful words come with a price!"

A mighty roar echoed!

The arrival of doom was, in the end, unavoidable. When this unparalleled ultimate sword was truly unleashed, everyone in Xu Yang's team understood what it meant for a divine being to be high above and dominate everything.

"Holy crap, did this guy take the wrong medicine? He can actually unleash such terrifying power! I even suspect he could completely shatter the entire void. This attack power is even stronger than the boss's!"

Long Kun began to panic again, as he truly didn't know what methods could effectively resist such power without being futile.

Fortunately, Isis had timely reminded everyone earlier that when this true crisis descended, regardless of its efficacy, everyone should unleash the strongest power they could muster to support Xu Yang.

However, what truly gave Xu Yang a headache at this moment was that he was already caught in a dilemma.

The reason for this was that Xu Yang's strongest protective power still relied on the Nine-Colored Universe Bell, a divine artifact. However, the bell spirit of the Nine-Colored Universe Bell alone simply couldn't withstand the strongest attack from one of the Four Divine Generals of the God Realm. If he summoned the bell spirit, it would mean his only innate protective divine artifact would ultimately be shattered.

But if he didn't summon it, then his partners behind him would undoubtedly suffer.

"Hahaha, Boss, I know what you're worried about. There's no need to overthink it. Without you, I would have perished completely many years ago, perhaps even spending countless millennia in that dark and desolate environment. It's because of your existence that the latter half of my life has been filled with unparalleled vibrancy. I had hoped to complete the true transformation from human to god alongside you, but now it seems I may not live to see that day... Regardless, our master-servant relationship has left this old bell spirit with no regrets."

Hearing the bell spirit's heartfelt monologue, Xu Yang's eyes welled up with tears for the first time. These were the farewell words from his old companion, spoken on their final battleground.

Xu Yang knew very well that the moment the opponent's sword struck, the decision made by the Universe Bell's bell spirit was beyond his ability to stop.

"Alright, old friend, let's not overthink this. Let's unleash our strongest power to stop this sword!"

The next moment, Xu Yang and the Nine-Colored Universe Bell's bell spirit reached a perfect consensus. The miraculous spirit that had accompanied Xu Yang through countless battles shattered with a roar. Its essence transformed into intersecting streams of dazzling light, shattering the void above Xu Yang's head.

Terrifying dark rifts spread across the mid-air.

It was at this moment that Xu Yang shot into the sky, using the Jade Bone Divine Sword in his hand to cast the "Universe in Sleeve" divine ability. For the first time, he allowed this divine artifact to experience the unique charm of this ability.

The sword energy of the main sword and the superimposed sword energy sealed within the void were simultaneously infused with the soul essence from the Nine-Colored Universe Bell's seven core origins.

This was the outcome decided by Xu Yang and the Nine-Colored Universe Bell's bell spirit after their discussion.

The greatest benefit of the bell spirit's self-detonation was that it preserved fragments of the old bell spirit's soul. If Xu Yang were to encounter more favorable circumstances in the future, there was a possibility that the bell spirit could still be revived.

If it had directly confronted Chenxi Sunset's ultimate sword head-on, it wouldn't have provided a sufficiently strong defense. Instead, it would have completely lost its entire soul essence for nothing. In that case, the bell spirit would have been utterly annihilated, with no possibility of revival.

A colossal void black hole began to frantically devour the terrifying power of the incoming sword. Simultaneously, at the far end of that void, the Jade Bone Divine Sword condensed a sword energy of three times its normal strength.

Although Xu Yang's strongest sword, even with its power tripled, could not contend with Chenxi Sunset's ultimate attack, the void black hole's devouring power prevented Chenxi Sunset's ultimate sword from unleashing its full potential. At the moment the two sword energies collided, it only unleashed eighty percent of its power.

A mighty roar echoed!

These two world-shattering ultimate powers fully erupted. The terrifying shockwave that rippled out almost instantly engulfed the entire plain battlefield below.

Initially, Xu Yang was concerned that this terrifying power might even indirectly harm his teammates. However, when he looked back, he found that the three mages had, using some unknown method, perfectly shielded everyone's physical bodies behind them with the power of special spatial laws.

As the clamor subsided, light reappeared across the continent. All the lights simultaneously illuminated every contour. Chenxi Sunset watched the scene before him with immense shock, finding it hard to believe it was real.
