As Tian Ji burned his life essence, his aura surged, infinitely approaching the "Hand." The entire space vibrated violently, cracks appearing on the surrounding mechanical walls, sparks flying everywhere.
Ye Ling stared intently at Tian Ji. He immediately transformed into the Primal Chronos Emperor form, greatly enhancing his precognitive abilities.
The moment Ye Ling transformed into the Primal Chronos Emperor, he foresaw that in ten seconds, Tian Ji's aura would reach its peak, and simultaneously, Xin Mo's body would explode without warning, consumed by red garbled code!
"Xin Mo, Tian Ji will attack you in ten seconds!"
After foreseeing the future, Ye Ling immediately shared the future scene he saw with Xin Mo, alerting Xin Mo to be on guard. Meanwhile, he used a thread of time to entwine Tian Ji, attempting to pull Tian Ji out of this spacetime!
However, after obtaining the power of the "Hand," Tian Ji could already ignore the influence of time. Ye Ling's time thread, while entangling Tian Ji, could at best slightly slow down Tian Ji's power increase; it couldn't fundamentally determine the direction of the battle.
Ten seconds later, Tian Ji's power ascended to its peak. Xin Mo in this space exploded without warning, and a large amount of red garbled code surged from Xin Mo's body, engulfing Xin Mo!
In an instant, Tian Ji dealt with one!
"Ye Ling..."
Tian Ji easily broke free from Ye Ling's time thread, absorbed Xin Mo, who had been engulfed by red garbled code, into his own body to seal it, then turned to Ye Ling and chuckled, "Next, only you remain!"
"Damn it!"
Ye Ling's expression turned grim as he saw Xin Mo swallowed by Tian Ji.
Although he could foresee future events, he didn't know how Tian Ji attacked Xin Mo...
If he didn't know Tian Ji's attack method before Tian Ji's next strike, he would suffer the same fate as Xin Mo!
Fortunately, Tian Ji's method of swallowing Xin Mo seemed to be unusable consecutively. Ye Ling foresaw the next ten seconds of the future, and nothing happened.
"I can't be so passive... I must attack proactively and seize the initiative!"
Ye Ling decided to launch an offensive against Tian Ji during these ten seconds of calm. He transformed back into the Primal Martial Emperor form and rushed towards Tian Ji!
In an instant, Ye Ling arrived before Tian Ji.
"Ye Ling, if you don't fight me with the resolve to die, you will never defeat me as I am now!"
Tian Ji smiled at the approaching Ye Ling. A large amount of scarlet garbled code condensed into a greatsword in his hand, which he fiercely swung at Ye Ling!
Ye Ling ignored Tian Ji's words, using his foresight to evade all of Tian Ji's attacks, and landed a powerful punch on Tian Ji's chest!
*Bang!!!*
The bone armor on Tian Ji's chest shattered, and he was sent flying by Ye Ling's punch. Ye Ling pressed his advantage, swiftly condensed a demonic sword with Origin Script, instantly appeared before Tian Ji again, and thrust the sword fiercely into Tian Ji's chest, which was no longer protected by bone armor!
*Chiiii!!!*
The demonic sword condensed from Origin Script easily pierced Tian Ji. A large amount of Origin Script diffused from the demonic sword throughout Tian Ji's body, and the Ink Domain also expanded, enveloping Tian Ji.
However, just as Ye Ling was about to use the Ink Domain to implant his words into Tian Ji's mind, the pierced Tian Ji grinned!
Seeing Tian Ji's strange smile, Ye Ling felt a sudden ominous premonition and accelerated the decomposition speed of the Ink Domain!
The next moment, the Ink Domain decomposed Tian Ji into a mass of text, but what Ye Ling obtained was only a string of unreadable garbled code!
Ye Ling couldn't obtain any information about Tian Ji, let alone change Tian Ji's thoughts!
"Ye Ling, I know all your methods. Your domains are useless against me!"
Tian Ji laughed. He suddenly grabbed Ye Ling by the waist with both hands, holding him tightly, preventing Ye Ling from escaping!
The next moment, scarlet garbled code condensed two more arms behind Tian Ji, and he once again clenched his fists and smashed them at Ye Ling!
Facing the barrage of fist attacks, Ye Ling, although he could still foresee the future five seconds ahead, couldn't dodge Tian Ji's attacks while being held by him!
Thus, Ye Ling took another brutal beating from Tian Ji.
If Ye Ling hadn't quickly transformed into the Primal Underworld Emperor form, greatly enhancing his vitality and physical strength, he would have been utterly annihilated by this series of punches!
"Ye Ling, you're like a cockroach that can't be killed. I want to see how long you can last!"
Seeing that Ye Ling's body hadn't even deformed after his round of attacks, Tian Ji increased the force in his hands, continuously squeezing Ye Ling's waist, while the other two hands accelerated their striking speed, treating Ye Ling as a punching bag, intending to beat him to death!
However, Ye Ling didn't intend to remain a punching bag forever. As Tian Ji was about to launch the next round of attacks, Ye Ling's entire body was enveloped by fierce White Emperor Flame!
*Chiiii!*
Tian Ji's four arms were instantly ignited by the White Emperor Flame, and the White Emperor Flame also showed a tendency to spread to Tian Ji's body.
Tian Ji seemed to know that once entangled by the White Emperor Flame, it could never be extinguished. At this moment, he unhesitatingly severed his four arms, abandoned his attack on Ye Ling, and created distance between himself and Ye Ling.
Tian Ji's four massive arms were instantly burned to ashes by the White Emperor Flame.
The sparks of the White Emperor Flame fell onto the floor, instantly igniting the space and spreading outwards.
Soon, the space turned into a sea of white flames.
Ye Ling, his body enveloped by the White Emperor Flame, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He looked at Tian Ji, who had retreated and whose arms had regrown, his eyes filled with increasing solemnity. He transformed back into the Primal Chronos Emperor form.
Although Ye Ling's White Emperor Flame could incinerate all things, it was a continuous burning. As long as Tian Ji could cut off the parts of his body that were ignited in the first instance, he would be fine.
The most offensive White Emperor Flame could only be used for defense.
Tian Ji looked at the ignited space and the White Emperor Flame spreading towards him. He merely smiled slightly, calmly cutting off the ignited space and teleporting away.
"Ye Ling, your White Emperor Flame can ignore the gap in strength to burn everything. This is indeed troublesome for me, but I only need to be slightly careful, and the flames pose no threat to me."
"As for your other forms, although each has its merits, under the absolute gap in strength, your forms are not enough for you to turn the tables!"
"Ye Ling, if these are all your means, then this battle ends here. You are more uninteresting than I imagined!"
As soon as Tian Ji finished speaking, Ye Ling foresaw that in ten seconds, he would explode from within, just like Xin Mo earlier, and be consumed by a large amount of red garbled code!
Ye Ling's pupils contracted sharply as he foresaw Tian Ji's method of sealing Xin Mo, and he instantly became tense!
"Here it comes!"
