Chapter 185: Chapter 169: Transformation into the Second Form

A system prompt sounded, and a ten-meter-tall figure suddenly materialized beneath a hundred thousand bolts of lightning.

It had a humanoid form, a crow’s head, and was draped in a robe of gray mist, its body covered in root-like tendrils.

The newcomer was none other than the King Incarnation, the Dark Dharma King!

But before it could even make a move, Wang Yi pointed a finger at it. The hundred thousand bolts of lightning crashed down, instantly melting the King Incarnation in the Thunder Pool.

"World Announcement: The King Incarnation, the Dark Dharma King, has been slain. His Eco-Power will be sacrificed to Jiya to help her complete her transformation."

The world announcements for joining the battle and for being slain were issued almost consecutively.

"What the hell? It died the second it showed up!"

"He can insta-kill even a King!"

"We have to steer clear of transforming Divines, and we wouldn’t even dare touch a King!"

"I wish I could be there to watch!"

"And there’s even the Heaven-Howling Dog!"

"What! The Heaven-Howling Dog teamed up with the Great Saint?"

"Nice one, doggo! It snatched up the items the Dark Dharma King dropped!"

"I always thought I’d transmigrated to some backward, ancient Otherworld. I was planning on farming, blacksmithing, and slowly building up a militia. I never expected to end up in a world of myths..."

"Jiya, what are you waiting for? Go get the Tathagata Buddha..."

Countless Players chattered among themselves.

Inside a certain Tower of Suffering, Xue Shentian and Li Mingli pointed and gestured at the image on a giant screen.

"King Incarnations are such trash. It got insta-killed the moment it appeared. What kind of boss is that!"

"Have you seen who the opponent is? Or the battlefield? Surrounded by the Ten Thousand Celestial Soldiers, even the strongest King Deity would be turned into a total weakling!"

"Aren’t Earth Deities supposed to be undying and indestructible? How come that’s not working? Why can’t the Golden Lion King and the Dark Dharma King resurrect...?"

Just then, Bai Xianyi entered the Tower of Suffering. She gazed at the screen, mulling over the world announcement. Her eyes swept over Xue Shentian and Li Mingli before she said, "Divine Incarnations have no Eco-Domain to support them. Like a river without a source, they can be killed!"

Hearing this, Xue Shentian and Li Mingli turned to size up Bai Xianyi.

Bai Xianyi continued, "However, this was likely a command from Source Body Jiya. You could say the Golden Lion King and the Dark Dharma King used their powerful enemy to sacrifice themselves, transferring their Eco-Power to Source Body Jiya. She will adapt to Sun Wukong’s attacks, make adjustments, and form a new ecology. Sun Wukong won’t be able to stop her from completing her second-form Transformation!"

"Is that so?"

Xue Shentian narrowed his eyes. ’So a commentator showed up,’ he thought.

Above the ruins of Wei City, Wang Yi frowned.

The Dark Dharma King had also dropped items, which Ji Liangren collected. Meanwhile, within the Thunder Pool forged by a hundred thousand bolts of lightning, a giant Starlight Vine had begun to grow once more.

This Starlight Vine was now immune to lightning damage. It even seemed capable of absorbing the lightning’s power. The hundred thousand bolts not only failed to harm it, but actually caused it to grow faster and faster. It was already forming flower buds, on the verge of blooming.

’The sacrifice of two Kings put Jiya back in the game?’

Realization dawned on Wang Yi. He immediately looked up and shouted, "Ten Thousand Celestial Soldiers, halt!"

In the sky above, the Celestial Soldiers and Generals covering a radius of several miles immediately ceased their assault. The hundred thousand bolts of lightning stopped, the thunderous light faded, and the Thunder Pool dried up. The massive crater in the ground was now nearly 500 meters in diameter, its edges charred black, with magma churning at its center.

The Starlight Vine thrived in the magma, wreathed in flames. It sprouted countless crimson, burning roots that spread across the crater floor like a web of fiery cracks.

"Damn you, Sun Wukong! Do you dare let me finish my transformation before we fight again!"

Jiya’s voice, full of fury, echoed from within the vine.

Wang Yi did not answer. He simply pointed down at the massive crater and commanded, "Rivers, assemble! Douse these flames!"

As he commanded, six points of light flew from between Wang Yi’s eyebrows. They transformed into six handleless Small Swords and plunged toward the Starlight Vine.

The next moment, raging waves materialized from thin air, and a great torrent surged toward the sky.

The Suspended River Sword, Dark River Sword, Cang River Sword, Long River Sword, White River Sword, and Qinghe Sword all unleashed a great flood at once.

The flames on the Starlight Vine were extinguished instantly. The thermal shock caused the vine to shatter into pieces as steam billowed into the air. The magma in the massive crater was submerged, and in an instant, the Thunder Pool became a lake!

Wang Bushi descended from the sky again, plunging into the lake and sending a monumental splash into the air.

"Holy shit, did the Great Saint summon the Celestial River Navy too?"

"The Great Saint is an ecological destroyer!"

"What other tricks does Jiya have up her sleeve? Don’t tell me the Great Saint is going to finish her off before she can even transform into her second form!"

"Fighting from the sky to the ground, blasting a huge crater, bombarding it with Divine Thunder until it’s full of magma, then turning it into a lake in the blink of an eye... What the fuck kind of battle is this?!"

"Looks like another Earth Deity is rushing to help!"

"It’s useless no matter who comes. Unless it’s the Tathagata Buddha!"

"Look! Something’s emerging from the water!"

Amidst the chatter of countless spectators, a gigantic head began to surface in the newly formed lake.

The moment Wang Yi saw the massive head, he recognized it. The King Deity, Breaking the Sky, had arrived.

Sure enough, a server-wide announcement quickly followed: "The King Deity, Breaking the Sky, has joined the battle!"

’Breaking the Sky isn’t a Divine Incarnation. It can bring its own Eco-Domain, and I don’t know if its Eco-Teleportation can be interrupted. Hmph. Firepower is the ultimate truth. I’ll just have to add some more...’

Just as Wang Yi was mulling this over, he saw what looked like a host of sea monsters appearing in the great lake below. Massive figures materialized beneath the surface, swimming, growing, and swelling in size!

Suddenly, with a great SPLASH, the giant Starlight Vine shot out of the water again. The bud at its tip instantly blossomed.

Wang Bushi descended from the sky like a Celestial Fire Meteor, hurtling straight toward the blossom.

But the massive head of Breaking the Sky shot forward, blocking the path to the blossom. It opened its wide, fanged maw and swallowed Wang Bushi in a single gulp.
