"What... What is that? The Blood... Blood Moon that obscures the entire Spiritual Power Divine Country?"
At the Extreme Ice Temple, the Dark Netherworld King revealed an incredulous expression due to the sudden emergence of the Blood Moon overshadowing the entire Spiritual Power Divine Country.
The Ten Thousand Sword Spirit King, Wind Language Witch, and Light Goddess with him also wore faces of shock.
After a brief moment of shock, their expressions turned somewhat awkward.
"You all stay here, I will go and see what's going on first!"
The Wind Language Witch was the first to have a premonition that Lin Tianming might be in danger and uttered these words before attempting to leave the Extreme Ice Temple.
Who would have thought that she barely made it halfway before being repulsed by a formation in the Extreme Ice Temple enhanced by the Deceit God Power, sending her flying back.
Puchi!
The Wind Language Witch was also spewing blood while being tossed back, splattering blood on the ground.
The Ten Thousand Sword Spirit King caught the Wind Language Witch right away and helped her stabilize her injury.
The Dark Netherworld King, looking at the formation that trapped them, his gaze turned heavy.
"It seems we've been tricked. The Deceit God utilized our desire to retake the Extreme Ice Temple, Fire Spirit Tower, and Sky Tree, deliberately setting up this formation to trap the peak combat powers of the Three Ascension Divine Kingdoms. The deaths of those three traitors before were just to lower our vigilance!"
The Light Goddess gazed at the Blood Moon Phenomenon that covered the entire Spiritual Power Divine Country thoughtfully, and after a moment, her expression turned worried.
"We thought we left Tianming the easiest task... Now it seems, we've left him the most dangerous mission..."
With her words, the Dark Netherworld King, Ten Thousand Sword Spirit King, and Wind Language Witch all fell into a brief silence.
Lin Tianming had just exhausted his Heart Over Matter, could he and the Thunder Dragon Emperor truly overcome this greatest crisis by fighting side by side?
Some time passed, and the Ten Thousand Sword Spirit King readjusted her mindset.
"Now we only can trust that Tianming can cope for the time being, and as long as we reclaim the Extreme Ice Temple as soon as possible, we can break free and help Tianming alleviate the pressure!"
Following the Ten Thousand Sword Spirit King's words, the Dark Netherworld King and the other two stopped contemplating other matters and focused on following the Ten Thousand Sword Spirit King to besiege the Extreme Ice Temple, striving to break free and support Lin Tianming as soon as possible.
...
At the Fire Spirit Tower, Little Lolita Tianqi, Su Qianqian, and Xi'er from the Mechanical Divine Country also bore solemn expressions.
"This Deceit God schemes so deeply... First using us as bait to exhaust Tianming's Heart Over Matter Mental Realm Power... then using the three major powers of the Spiritual Power Divine Country as bait to isolate us and Tianming into different predicaments... It's all interconnected... We've been thoroughly deceived!"
Listening to Little Lolita Tianqi's analysis, Su Qianqian's face became indignant.
"These Deceit Gods are too wicked! Tianming is my most admired hero, he can't come to harm!"
"It's no use thinking too much now, we should concentrate on how to swiftly retake the Fire Spirit Tower and find a way to break free!"
Xi'er spoke, then took the lead in rushing towards the interior of the Fire Spirit Tower.
Seeing this, Little Lolita Tianqi and Su Qianqian could only silently pray that Lin Tianming could hold on until they broke free to support him, then swiftly entered the Fire Spirit Tower.
...
"I can't... Even my Causality Law can't... shake this formation... Cough cough..."
To destroy the formation enhanced by the Deceit God Power at the Sky Tree and aid Lin Tianming, the Holy Origin Spirit King had used her strongest technique, yet she was still unable to shake the formation.
Moreover, due to the backlash of exceeding her current ability with the Causality Law, she couldn't stop coughing up blood.
Seeing that it was impossible to forcefully break through the formation, Fairy Qing Lei supported the Holy Origin Spirit King.
"Nevermind, Holy Origin Spirit King, we should focus on reclaiming the Sky Tree. Only then can we free ourselves to help him. There were moments more dangerous than this in the past, this dear one is blessed with good fortune and won't come to harm!"
Although she said this, even Fairy Qing Lei didn't have any confidence in her heart.
Fairy Qinglian also spoke at this time: "Sister Qing Lei is right, who knows, maybe by the time we retake the Sky Tree and break free, Tianming will still be safe and sound!"
"Let's go, Holy Origin Spirit King, conserve enough strength so we can reclaim the Sky Tree as quickly as possible, to support Lin Tianming!"
Angel Xingyao also spoke, and the Holy Origin Spirit King had no choice but to listen to them.
"Hopefully, he... can still turn danger into safety!"
...
Now, the strongest combat powers of the Three Ascension Divine Kingdoms were temporarily trapped, no one able to give Lin Tianming any aid.
Lin Tianming, together with the Thunder Dragon Emperor, was also on edge, not daring to be careless in the slightest.
"My name is the Blood Soul Moon Lord, Lin Tianming, you are bound to die today! No one can save you!"
The voice of the mastermind behind the Blood Moon Phenomenon echoed from every crack in space, like a devilish whisper piercing directly into Lin Tianming's soul.
With a tremble in his heart, Lin Tianming immediately mustered all his Spiritual Power Ascension to protect his mind and spirit.
"Dragon Empress, we…"
Swoosh!
Before Lin Tianming could finish his statement, the Thunder Dragon Emperor's delicate body was pierced through by a beam of Blood Moon power coming from the other side of space rifts everywhere.
Immediately after, the Thunder Dragon Emperor's body lost balance and fell from the sky.
"Dragon Empress!"
Lin Tianming sprang into action at once, catching her grievously injured figure.
Without any time for Lin Tianming and the Thunder Dragon Emperor to exchange even a word, the Deceitful God Whisper from the Blood Soul Moon Lord brought a new calamity.
"My True Body is ultimately still in the Deceit God World; it's impossible for me to exert all my strength."
"Now that you've exhausted the potential energy you burst forth, and lost the ally who could've helped you unleash the Peak True God Combat Power, let's see what tricks you have left to turn the tables!"
"Lin Tianming, accept your fate of death! Today, it won't just be you dying—the strongest Combat Powers from the Three Ascension Divine Kingdoms who entered the Extreme Ice Temple, Fire Spirit Tower, and Sky Tree will also meet their tragic ends at the hands of the Deceit Gods within, hahaha!"
The Blood Soul Moon Lord burst into maniacal laughter. Under the bolstering power of the Blood Moon Phenomenon, he coalesced multiple Blood Moon Giant Hands, pressing down towards Lin Tianming.
Lin Tianming dodged and weaved while cradling the heavily wounded Thunder Dragon Emperor.
The Thunder Dragon Emperor, lying in his arms at death's door, shed tears of guilt, choking out, "I'm sorry… Tianming, I... I didn't manage to help you this time..."
"It's not your fault, Dragon Empress. It's this damned Deceit God being too sly, targeting you intentionally!"
Lin Tianming tried to soothe the Thunder Dragon Emperor as he darted about, clutching her close.
But without the Thunder Dragon Emperor's power to aid him, and unable to use the Heart Over Matter Mental State, Lin Tianming at the Ninth-Order God Peak, even with his ability to slay those beyond his level, was no match for the Blood Soul Moon Lord.
Soon, in the midst of flight, Lin Tianming had exhausted much of his strength.
His remaining power insufficient for top speed, Lin Tianming, holding the Thunder Dragon Emperor, was swiftly caught up to by the Blood Moon Giant Hand that blocked his entire view.
Boom!
The already dying Thunder Dragon Emperor would undoubtedly perish if hit by that strike.
To protect the Thunder Dragon Emperor, Lin Tianming could only guard her with all his might in his embrace, turning his back against the Blood Moon Giant Hand to mount a defense.
Using nearly all defensive measures, Lin Tianming was still left critically injured.
Nonetheless, he forcibly persisted, lifting the Thunder Dragon Emperor as he continued to flee with his weakened body.
At the same time, his mind raced with plans.
"I'm sorry… It's my fault you've been so badly hurt… Tianming... maybe… you should just leave me…"
Seeing Lin Tianming so severely injured in order to protect her, the Thunder Dragon Emperor cried despairingly.
Lin Tianming certainly would not abandon the Thunder Dragon Emperor now. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"It's okay, I promise, we will definitely both survive!"
Just as Lin Tianming reassured the Thunder Dragon Emperor, the next Blood Moon Giant Hand was hot on their trail.
Watching the Blood Moon Giant Hand closing in on him and the Thunder Dragon Emperor, Lin Tianming's gaze darkened.
Could this be the end?
Was he really fated to fall here today?
Bracing for the impact, Lin Tianming no longer had the strength to shield the Thunder Dragon Emperor.
To prevent her from dying under this blow, Lin Tianming decided to use his last bit of strength to send her away first.
"Dragon Empress, I'm glad to have known you. Live a good life!"
"No, Tianming!"
Lin Tianming negated the force of the Starry Sky Dragon Fury, turning the Starlight Dragon into a temporary vessel to carry the Thunder Dragon Emperor full throttle toward the Southern Border Ten Thousand Mountains.
As for himself, he faced death bravely, stimulating all defensive measures in his Genetic Ascension Form.
But as a Ninth-Order God Peak, all his defenses crumbled beneath the terrifying Blood Moon Giant Hand of the Blood Soul Moon Lord.
"Die, Lin Tianming, today shall be your last!"
The Blood Soul Moon Lord's loud Deceit God laughter echoed throughout the Spiritual Power Divine Country.
Nearby, the Jiuzhou Woman, long absent from visiting Lin Tianming, watched everything with calm detachment.
"Only He would play this earnest game with the creatures of the Mortal World. Watch and cherish…"
Just as Lin Tianming was about to be crushed by the Blood Moon Giant Hand, the Jiuzhou Woman remained unmoved.
At that moment, the power boost provided by the Blood Moon Phenomenon for the Blood Soul Moon Lord rapidly drained away, pouring toward the location behind Lin Tianming.
And the Blood Moon Giant Hand, filled with the Deceitful God Aura, was pierced through by a pink Soul Power, strong enough to rival the True God Peak.
Simultaneously, a familiar female voice reached Lin Tianming from behind.
"Die? With me here, no one can let Ming Jun die! Finally, an opportunity for me to take the stage!"
Before Lin Tianming could turn to confirm if the familiar voice belonged to someone he knew, another extremely dissatisfied voice came from behind.
"What do you mean with you here, Lianghua? As if you're the savior of Brother Tianming!"
"It should be with us here! Finally, an opportunity for us to take the stage! Without us, could you show off in front of Brother Tianming?"
"Brother Tianming, Qingxue is here to save you!"
