Chapter 573: Madness!

Taotie was bathed in monstrous blood light, its gaping maw swirling with a terrifying vortex, as if it could swallow the sky itself—extremely fearsome.

Having slain Yang Tian in the Divine Garden in the past, today it was determined to seize the divine objects on Yang Tian's person.

With a divine object about to fall into its hands, Taotie's heart raced at the thought, unable to suppress a grin, cackling eerily.

"You'd better worry about yourself!" At this, Xuan Yuan Mu shook his head slightly. He was incredibly fierce, his divine power shaking heaven and earth as he clashed head-on with Taotie.

"Damn it..." The smile on Taotie's face slowly faded, replaced by a cold grimness. The figure before it was no easy opponent, his physical body no weaker than its own.

The blood-colored pagoda floated in the void, cascading down blood-red torrents that surged into the sky, vast and mighty, striking toward Xuan Yuan Mu.

At this moment, Yang Tian's body blazed with dazzling purple light, like a burning sun radiating supreme majesty, too brilliant to behold.

"Kill! Kill!" War cries filled the air. Heaven and earth boiled as terrifying divine seas swept across the four directions, nearly crushing the sky.

Yun'er radiated holy divine light. The ancient characters pulsed with earth-shaking fluctuations, continuously falling into her sea of consciousness and merging with her.

She seemed to be in a state of enlightenment, entering a wondrous realm where her withered life source began to show signs of vitality.

The life essence flowing through her limbs and meridians was drawn into the withered source, continuously nourishing and strengthening it, giving rise to waves of vitality.

Sensing this vitality, Yang Tian's eyes instantly brimmed with ecstasy. At this point, Yun'er had escaped death's grasp and was entering a critical phase.

Like a withered tree blooming in spring, Yang Tian grew bolder with each battle, laughing heartily. He had swallowed a ten-thousand-year precious medicine, his aura soaring to the heavens, his vitality vigorous, his battle spirit piercing the sky.

"He can't hold out much longer!" Three alien creatures bellowed. Though Yang Tian had spat out essence blood, he could not hold them off for long and would be shaken to death.

The Starry Tower hummed incessantly, its ninefold starry river being torn apart repeatedly. Even though it was forged from divine materials, it could not withstand such consumption.

Yang Tian was steadily forced back, on the verge of collapse. In the distance, Xiao Bai and Xiao Qing were stained with blood; they were still too weak. Though divine beasts, they faced fearsome alien creatures, all of whom bore divine blood.

Rumble! Heaven and earth shook violently as a golden-glowing alien creature charged out, striking directly at Yun'er's delicate form.

"Die!" Yang Tian roared, his black hair whipping wildly. The jade pendant floating in the void stirred, awakening like a divine god, instantly unleashing a sea of divine light that engulfed the creature.

A miserable howl exploded. The alien creature suffered a massive assault, its body drenched in blood. Had its strength not been extraordinary, its soul would have been nearly annihilated.

The golden alien creature, bloodied and weakened, lost its ability to fight, nearly killed, causing it to tremble with fear.

"Whoever comes, dies!" Yang Tian stood firm beside Yun'er. Though bloodied, his battle aura remained formidable. Golden lightning flashed in his eyes, his voice thundered like rolling thunder, echoing endlessly in the void.

He was like a purple war god treading the void, possessing the valor of one man holding a pass against ten thousand, striking terror into hearts.

The two alien creatures felt a chill. Though this man's cultivation level was far below theirs, they could not help but shudder, a sense of dread creeping over them.

"Useless! Kill him—he's spent!" Taotie roared, its eyes nearly splitting. The divine objects were within sight, yet it was tied up.

"Shut up!" Xuan Yuan Mu bellowed, his Dragon Subduing Mace like a divine whip, striking heaven and earth with immense power.

The two alien creatures stirred restlessly, greed flickering in their eyes. The allure of divine objects was immense; both coveted them.

"You can try—if you think you can walk out alive!" Yang Tian thundered, chaotic beams of light shooting into the sky. He stood like a divine king treading the heavens, his divine might invincible.

The two alien creatures fell silent. If they killed Yang Tian, could they take the divine objects out? Would their clan face annihilation?

Neither was a fool; they would not labor for nothing, especially at the risk of their lives.

The atmosphere grew cold and still. Yang Tian's black hair danced lightly, his breathing steady, his battle aura soaring, exuding a domineering aura that swept heaven and earth.

The air was dead and heavy with slaughter. Just then, the void above Yun'er suddenly split open, and a terrifyingly vast hand reached down, grabbing for her body!

"I've been waiting for you!" Sensing the overwhelming attack, Yang Tian instantly roared. A chill wind seemed to sweep through the air, making everyone shiver.

The descending hand, as mighty as a great mountain, trembled slightly at Yang Tian's words, then continued its grab for Yun'er's body.

Yang Tian's eyes blazed. From the crown of his head stepped forth a divine being radiating profound dao resonance, golden light surging like a vast ocean, exuding an aura of destruction.

The golden figure appeared, startling many creatures. They stared in disbelief at the sudden divine being; the energy fluctuations it emitted made even the most powerful feel a chill.

"That move again!" Fatty's heart trembled. It was with this fearsome secret technique that Yang Tian had gravely wounded the young demonic clan member, but the cost to Yang Tian had been devastating.

"What is that? A divine being born within the body?" Xuan Yuan Mu's eyelids twitched as he exclaimed inwardly.

"Not good!" A terrified voice came from the void. The hand instantly retracted; the one it faced was a madman.

"Too late!" Yang Tian roared, his black hair whipping into the sky. The golden figure instantly appeared in the rift, and a fluctuation that made all hearts tremble suddenly erupted!

Boom! Like monstrous waves striking the sky, collision sounds ceaseless, like a tsunami roaring, entire stretches of void exploding!

The rift in the void blazed with dazzling light, like a sun exploding—nothing could be seen clearly, only scorching golden radiance.

"Ah..." Yang Tian roared, his body drenched in blood, turning him into a blood-soaked figure. Yet he bellowed, his voice shaking the clouds, as he intercepted the crashing, rampaging energies before him.

The terrifying fluctuations spread who knew how far. The entire Jade Tower shook, as if about to explode.

"How terrifying..." Many creatures felt their livers and gallbladders shatter, secretly grateful they had not charged forward, or they would have been blown to bits instantly!

Even Taotie felt a chill in its heart. The explosive fluctuations were too fearsome, even for it to bear, estimated to reach the ultimate combat power of the Dao Divine Mountain!

Pfft... Like a surging golden sea, a figure shot out from within, disheveled, his skin and flesh split open, revealing crystalline bones, as he spat out several mouthfuls of blood.

The young demonic clan member was enraged, his eyes falling on the fragments falling from the void—his bone pagoda had been blasted apart!

"Excellent!" The young demonic clan member roared, his eyes venomous. The bone pagoda had been slightly cracked by Xuan Yuan Mu earlier, and now it was completely destroyed, filling him with fury.

"I'll spare you for a few days. I will have the Yin Origin!" With a resentful glance at the figure before him, the young demonic clan member gritted his teeth, tore open the void, and fled.

He knew in his heart that this madman before him had not died even after detonating two avatars at the War King realm last time. If he faced another, he would truly die.

His eyes on the fleeing figure of the young demonic clan member, Yang Tian suppressed his raging fury, his resolve to kill growing stronger.

"I will surely slay you!" He growled inwardly, his eyes sweeping over the surrounding creatures. With an indomitable will, Yang Tian forced himself not to fall, standing in the void, too awe-inspiring to meet.

"Whoever comes, dies!" He said softly, making his resolve clear: to pass, one must step over Yang Tian's corpse.

Though his body was drenched in blood and his aura weak to the extreme, Yang Tian's appearance sent chills down everyone's spine, from head to toe. Many powerful alien creatures were terrified, not daring to meet his gaze.
