Chapter 870: Futile Efforts

　　Even as the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak closed in, Su Zimo had not thought of any escape plan.

　　However, there was no fluster in his eyes.

　　Since he could not escape, he could only fight with his life!

　　Given his character, there was no way he was going to surrender without a fight!

　　The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak seemed to have sensed it and paused in his tracks.

　　Su Zimo’s eyes were cold and a glint of killing intent flashed past!

　　Suddenly, a gigantic Bronze Square Tripod flew out of his glabella.

　　The tripod was rusted and filled with cracks, looking ancient and old – it seemed like it was created countless years ago.

　　Even the voids trembled as the Bronze Square Tripod descended. It swung along Su Zimo’s hand towards the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak violently!

　　Immediately after, a green lotus platform that was shiny as jade appeared.

　　Five layers of petals spread with resplendent glows and chaotic qi spread fiercely, blanketing down the head of the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak!

　　“The struggles of a trapped beast. Shatter it!”

　　The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak was prepared for this and harrumphed coldly. He did not panic nor hurry as he punched out with surging blood qi against the Bronze Square Tripod head-on!

　　“Ugh!”

　　The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak grunted dully and actually retreated a step back.

　　Under normal circumstances, he should have been able to shatter the Perfected Lord Dharmic weapon of a low-level fiend demon casually.

　　Even a Dao Being Dharmic weapon might not be able to withstand his Dharmic power.

　　Furthermore, this gigantic tripod looked extremely battered. As such, the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak thought that he would be able to shatter it with a single casual punch.

　　Unexpectedly, the Bronze Square Tripod was indestructible and caused his knuckles to be smashed instead.

　　“It’s just flesh wounds, nothing to be worried about!”

　　The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak was swift to react. Instead of a punch, he pressed gently against the Bronze Square Tripod instead to push it away.

　　At the same time, he slapped his storage bag and withdrew a long saber, slashing up against the Creation Green Lotus.

　　Clang!

　　The Creation Green Lotus was repelled.

　　A series of cracks appeared on the surface of the saber as well and it shattered after a split second!

　　The eyes of the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak narrowed.

　　Although his saber was only an ordinary Dao Lord Dharmic weapon, it was not something that any casual weapon could shatter!

　　There was definitely something up with this green lotus platform!

　　“Another treasure!”

　　The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak nodded to himself.

　　The more treasures and methods Su Zimo possessed, the more excited he was.

　　That was because he was going to steal all of those treasures and methods away!

　　The Creation Green Lotus was repelled by the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak. However, rays of green light suddenly burst forth from the lotus platform.

　　45 lotus seeds burst forth and green light streaked everywhere with a boundless sharpness. They shot towards the consciousness of the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak as though they could slice everything in the void!

　　It was a killing move targeted at the Essence Spirit!

　　Su Zimo realized that the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak was severely injured with the destruction of the latter’s Destiny Dharmic Weapon as well – this was the moment when his Essence Spirit was at its weakest.

　　However, Su Zimo was bound by the anaconda tendon and the only things he could use were the two Destiny Dharmic Weapons in his consciousness!

　　“Puny tricks!”

　　The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak sneered and his glabella flashed. A terrifying spirit consciousness was released and the waves of spirit consciousness fluctuations almost materialized!

　　Ripples appeared in midair.

　　Before the 45 streaks of green light could pierce his consciousness, they were dissipated by the spread of the ripples!

　　Although the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak’s Essence Spirit was weakened, this was the Essence Spirit of a high-level fiend demon after all – his strength was overwhelming and not to be underestimated!

　　With the release of that spirit consciousness attack, the aura of the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak weakened considerably and he panted a few heavy breaths.

　　The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak’s eyes shone with excitement.

　　The green lantern platform was so mystifying. Not only was it powerful, the lotus seeds within could even release an attack that targeted one’s Essence Spirit – it was indeed a rare utmost treasure!

　　“Great, great! All of those treasures are going to be mine!”

　　Rather than enraged, the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak was excited instead.

　　However, the smile on his face froze immediately after.

　　A shuddering killing intent surged over all of a sudden and arrived instantly; his hairs stood on end and his scalp prickled!

　　How could that be?

　　This lowlife still has something up his sleeves?!

　　The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak was shocked!

　　The two Essence Spirits within Su Zimo’s consciousness had fused together.

　　If the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak could enter his consciousness, he would be shocked at the sight greeting him.

　　Within Su Zimo’s consciousness, his Essence Spirit assumed a lotus position and sang scriptures. Behind him was the illusory phantom of a gigantic Buddha with a dignified expression – he looked down upon the world with rays of divine light hovering behind his head!

　　Su Zimo and the gigantic Buddha opened their mouths at the same time and chanted ancient sutras.

　　Their auras seemed to be fused together and Sanskrit reverberated through every single corner of the consciousness in a deafening manner!

　　Su Zimo’s post-fusion Essence Spirit was forcefully channeling a secret skill!

　　It was a secret skill from the Great Day Rulai Sutra!

　　Given Su Zimo’s wisdom root, he already managed to comprehend this Essence Spirit secret skill within a hundred years.

　　However, it was clearly stated in the Great Day Rulai Sutra that this Essence Spirit secret skill was extremely powerful and could only be released by a cultivator at the Dharma Characteristic realm.

　　Otherwise, the cultivator’s Essence Spirit wouldn’t be able to handle it!

　　Su Zimo’s Essence Spirit was only at late-stage Nascent Soul realm.

　　Even after fusion, his Essence Spirit was only at the Void Reversion realm at the most.

　　It was not at the Dharma Characteristic realm at all.

　　However, he could not have so many reservations – the situation before him did not allow him any options.

　　This was his only chance!

　　The consciousness of the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak was linked to his Destiny Dharmic Weapon and the glow of his Essence Spirit was dim.

　　After his arm was snapped, his blood qi was weakened. Thereafter, he dealt with the successive attacks of the Bronze Square Tripod, Creation Green Lotus and even the lotus seeds – right now, he was at his weakest.

　　If the Essence Spirit secret skill could be released at this moment, there was an extremely high chance that it could kill the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak’s Essence Spirit!

　　“Rulai Dharmic Seal!”

　　Su Zimo spoke in Su Zimo and the voids trembled.

　　A golden light shone from his glabella and a swastika symbol gradually formed with a divine might as Buddha light radiated everywhere!

　　The ancient symbol descended with a brilliant golden light that seemed as though it could suppress the entire world!

　　The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak’s eyes widened with horror.

　　His eyes were overwhelmed by the golden light completely!

　　Within his consciousness, his Essence Spirit shivered against the Rulai Dharmic Seal and he even had an urge to kneel in prostration!

　　He could not imagine how a low-level fiend demon could wield such a terrifying secret skill!

　　Su Zimo’s Essence Spirit was shivering continuously as well.

　　The toll on his Essence Spirit by releasing the Rulai Dharmic Seal was way too intense!

　　The rate of exhaustion was frightening and was beyond what he could endure!

　　All of a sudden!

　　A giddy sensation surged through Su Zimo’s mind and his Essence Spirit shuddered. Its glow dimmed rapidly and it was on the verge of falling.

　　The swastika symbol on his glabella dimmed accordingly as well.

　　The golden light was dispersing.

　　The terrifying might was dissipating as well.

　　The swastika symbol quivered endlessly before it dispersed into golden spots of light and scattered into the air.

　　He could not manage to form the Rulai Dharmic Seal eventually!

　　Su Zimo’s expression was dark and devastated.

　　To think that all his efforts were futile at the end of the day!

　　“Hahahaha!”

　　The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak reared his head in wild laughter with a contorted expression.

　　He had survived!

　　Unknowingly, the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak found himself drenched in sweat.

　　His life was hanging on a thread!

　　He could clearly sense the terror of that Essence Spirit secret skill.

　　If Mo was a mid-level fiend demon right now, he would have most likely died today!

　　However, that was only an if.

　　There was no way he would accord Su Zimo the chance to grow further!

　　“Lowlife, this is life!”

　　The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak retracted his smile and said coldly, “It’s your fate to die here today!”
