This Young Master is not Cannon Fodder chapter-494-five-element-annihilation

Tianyi’s eyes, which had remained dull for years, finally brightened. He scanned the hordes of demons staring warily and hatefully at him. ‘They’re about to attack the headquarters of the Demon Clan. It’s time for me to increase the pressure.’

He first sent a message to the field commander of the front lines to prepare themselves. Since the Immortal Court took command of the assault on the Demon Clan’s Void Continent, they ceded leadership of this battlefront to the Numinous Sword Sect.

The field commander’s title was Snowsword. Ironically as a sword immortal, her greatest strength wasn’t offense, but defense and long-ranged attacks. Not just singular targeting, but anything within her range.

“Let me adjust the positions before you start your offense,” Sword Empress Snowsword said, using her immortal sense.

Tianyi’s lips twitched when he sensed the immortals distancing themselves from him. The ones closest to him were from Immortal Court, while the ones farthest were those from the Numinous Sword Sect. Although both sides were human, Tianyi still felt the meaning behind the proverb, “not of my race, not one of heart.”

Granted, he understood the reasoning. Once he started attacking with all his might, the demons would definitely hard focus on him. Anyone around him would be dragged down and affected because of him. Still, Tianyi felt dejected that no one stayed behind to protect him. Even if it was only for show.

Sword Empress Snowsword obviously wanted the Immortal Court to block the majority of the demon’s wrath. Even if this was a racial war between humans and demons, they were not wholly united. Tianyi still understood. Unless the Demon Clan pulled some bullcrap out of their ass and pressured the Immortal Court and Numinous Sword Sect, these small calculations would continue.

Well, not that he stood on the moral high ground compared to the Numinous Sword Sect after what Ba Shifang and Donghai Longzi did.

“Everything’s ready.”

Tianyi wanted to snap back, but he held it back. A wry smile appeared on his face. He could already imagine the intensity of what would happen once he started his true offensive. He shook his head, and his gaze sharpened.

In the distance, Demon Emperor Redraco, Demon Emperor Blacktiger, and Demon Empress Bluefeather felt the changes in Tianyi’s aura. They raised their guard, but they could never have expected Tianyi’s subsequent actions.

The barrage of Stellar Silences slowed down. Although each attack was still terrifying, at least the demons had a chance to breathe in relief. However, they didn’t know that something more terrifying awaited them.

Eight miniature planets orbiting an equally small sun appeared in Tianyi’s free hand. Compared to the barrage of Planetary Purgatory and Stellar Silences, the energy needed was far more terrifying. Once he unleashed it, the casualties would skyrocket, the demons just didn’t know it yet.

Although Tianyi hadn’t unleashed Constellation Cessation a hundred thousand times like he had with the other two techniques, the speed of its creation was much faster compared to a hundred years ago. The time he spent reducing the time needed to form Planetary Purgatory and Stellar Silence still increased his mastery over Constellation Cessation.

Tianyi raised his left hand, and the miniature solar system vanished from his palm. The demons, who were keeping a close eye on Tianyi, all tensed. They saw that he was preparing to use a new move. Naturally, they wanted to intercept, but the countless Stellar Silences kept them at bay.

“Dammit! Move!” Demon Emperor Redraco shouted. He turned his attention from Tianyi toward a large concentration of demons near him. Those demons were reserves. When the attacking demons grew fatigued, they would replace them, but now, Tianyi directly teleported his Constellation Cessation in the middle of them.

Those demons wanted to run, but they only had a second to think before Tianyi’s technique engulfed them whole.

Demon Emperor Redraco and the other Divine Beasts present all soared away, escaping the range of Tianyi’s technique.

Tianyi clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction. His move had killed over a hundred demon lords and three demon kings, but all the demon emperors survived. Of course, if he had teleported his attack near Demon Emperor Redraco and the others, it might have been a different story. It was also possible that the fluctuations of space would have alerted them immediately and his spell would hit even fewer demons.

“Dammit, that human can actually teleport in the void!” Demon Empress Bluefeather shouted.

“I heard you encountered him before. Why didn’t you know he had such capabilities?!” Demon Emperor Blacktiger questioned.

“He never showed anything like this,” Demon Empress Bluefeather snapped back. “Had he always had this ability and concealed it, or did he only recently learn it?”

Both possibilities were equally bad. If Xi Tianyi always had this ability, it meant that he hid it just for this moment. If not, then his rate of growth was too monstrous. Even if he concealed this, the second still applied. Xi Tianyi was less than ten thousand years old.

For the first time, the contemporary Divine Beasts understood the terror of Tianyi’s genius, and the murderous intent in their hearts erupted.

“Don’t forget that he also has a mother!” Demon Emperor Redraco said. “She’s even more monstrous and is already an immortal sovereign. She has a high chance of entering the Divine Realm!”

“Although we shouldn’t underestimate her, we shouldn’t overestimate her either,” Demon Emperor Blacktiger said. “How can the Divine Realm be so easily reached?”freeωebnovēl.c૦m

“Ignore her for now,” Demon Empress Bluefeather said. “The current danger is the Nine Heavens Emperor. I don’t know about Sovereign Xi, but the Nine Heavens Emperor is the greatest danger to the Demon Clan now. He’s been using qi intensive techniques for decades. Not even an immortal sovereign can persist for so long in the same situation.”

Upon being reminded by Demon Empress Bluefeather, the two demon emperor’s murderous intent increased. If he’s already so difficult to deal with in the Extremity Immortal Realm, they couldn’t imagine how terrible it would be once he reached the Origin Immortal Realm.

“No, isn’t he already in the Origin Immortal Realm? Otherwise, how else would he be able to use teleportation in the void?” Demon Emperor Redraco said.

“Not necessarily,” Demon Emperor Blacktiger said. “When the spell teleported over, I didn’t only feel spatial fluctuations, but also temporal fluctuations.”

“You mean the Law of Spacetime?” It took a moment for Demon Emperor Redraco and Demon Empress Bluefeather to understand the implications of Demon Emperor Blacktiger’s words. If his conjectures were true and Tianyi really hadn’t stepped into the Origin Immortal Realm, then he was even more dangerous.

“He must not be kept,” Demon Emperor Redraco said, with no dissent from his fellow Divine Beasts.

Although they had their contradictions, the three members of the Four Divine Beasts trusted their lives to each other countless times. With a single glance, they already devised a plan. The three pincered Tianyi from three different directions. Aside from them, a few demon kings also charged at Tianyi. With Tianyi’s new offensive output, the demon lords have long lost the qualification and courage to attack him.

The moment Tianyi launched the Constellation Cessation, the true immortals and immortal monarchs that were just holding the line charged forward aggressively. Their sudden assault made the demon horde unable to concentrate all their focus on Tianyi.

Off in the distance, Sword Empress Snowsword slew demons by the dozens. Snowflakes fluttered in her surrounding area, making it appear that snow was falling in the void. Whenever the snowflake touched a demon, a deep gash would appear in the direction it flowed. The snowflakes were both blades and ice crystals that the sword empress controlled freely.

Comparatively, her absolute offense was weak, but each snowflake could strike with the power comparable to an immortal lord. And Sword Empress Snowsword controlled hundreds of thousands of snowflakes. At a certain point, quantity transformed into quality. Even a peak demon emperor would fear suffering a barrage of attacks from hundreds of thousands of immortal lords.

However, despite the fall of over a hundred demon lords, none of the three demon emperors paid attention. Instead, they dodged Tianyi’s Stellar Silences and flew as close to him as possible. When they saw him forming another Constellation Cessation, it only drove their determination.

Once they reached the minimum range, the three of them immediately activated their innate abilities. Demon Emperor Redraco used the Azure Dragon Claw, Demon Emperor Blacktiger unleashed White Tiger Roar, and Demon Empress Bluefeather used the Vermillion Bird’s Sacred Fire.

Unlike the time they used their innate ability against Mengfei, they were in peak condition. Giant apparitions of the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, and Vermillion Bird appeared above the three demon emperors. Each apparition dwarfed their caster, and the manifestation plunged the surrounding area under an immense pressure.

This included Tianyi. When he heard about the Four Element Annihilation from his mother, he was very interested in trying. Of course, he also wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with these people who dared to use such a dangerous technique on his beloved mother.

Tianyi pursed his brows when he felt the Law of Wood, Law of Metal, and Law of Fire once the three apparitions appeared. The pressure exceeded his estimations, and he sensed something more than just the three laws. ‘It feels like the Law of Spacetime?’

He didn’t have time to ponder for long as a fourth apparition appeared. ‘Wait, this feeling isn’t the Law of Earth, but the Law of Water!’

Tianyi’s eyes widened when he saw an apparition of a colossal black tortoise. The pressure it emitted exceeded that of the previous three. Under it, a shadow revealed itself. When Tianyi’s eyes captured the form, his pupils shrunk into needlepoints. ‘Xuanwu!’

‘Why is he here? Shouldn’t he still be in the process of regaining his strength?’ Tianyi questioned. He could feel the aura of a demon emperor emanating off of the black tortoise. ‘It seems that the primary aim of the operation failed. I wonder if I can kill him in front of the other Four Divine Beasts.’

He didn’t have time to consider his chances of killing the Black Tortoise as the pressure intensified by a hundred times. ‘Is this the power of an attack at the threshold of the Divine Realm?!’

Even someone as confident as Tianyi in his physical durability couldn’t help but feel palpitations. He wanted to teleport, but a mysterious force canceled all his attempts at teleportation. For a moment, Tianyi considered whether or not to reveal that he possessed essence or essence qi in order to save his most powerful conduit. Soon, he didn’t need to because he lost the chance.

The fifth apparition appeared. A yellow dragon with a trailing beard and two whiskers almost as long as its body appeared in the middle of the Four Divine Beast phantoms, right above Tianyi. Just like how the four apparitions dwarfed their casters, the fifth apparition dwarfed the first four apparitions.

Once the yellow dragon appeared, the Law of Earth also appeared in the combined innate ability. With all five elemental laws present, the five laws merged into the Law of Five Phases. It was at this point that Tianyi sensed that the combined innate ability didn’t have a hint of the Law of Spacetime, but the complete Law of Space and the Law of Time.

Tianyi didn’t have time to marvel at the Law of Five Phases or the Law of Spacetime because the power of the combined innate ability increased by a hundredfold again. If the Four Element Annihilation just crossed the threshold of the Divine Realm, then this Five Element Annihilation stood solidly in the divine level.

He couldn’t struggle, no matter his efforts. Even the Constellation Cessation in his palm froze and could not unleash its might. Tianyi finally experienced what his enemies felt when he shackled spacetime around them.

As the pressure increased, Tianyi’s robes shattered and transformed into a black fog filled with countless motes of light. They had just returned to their origin form, immortal qi of primordial chaos. The most horrifying thing was the cracks that appeared on his skin, the most noticeable on his exposed face.

Like flakes, the cracked skin fell off Tianyi’s body, exposing an inky darkness from which black mist leaked out, only to be immediately vaporized.

Tianyi could only stand there, waiting powerlessly as his conduit broke down. Just as half his face turned into a black mist, a ripple echoed from the Black Tortoise apparition, breaking the cohesion of the Five Element Annihilation.

He seized the chance. He still couldn’t teleport, but he could still move a little. Less than a millisecond later, the Constellation Cessation in his palm exploded, engulfing him inside.
