Reversing Falsehood and Preserving Truth: All Gods and Gods Are in My Hands

Before the roar of Pangolin No. 1's underground attack had subsided, Lu Yuren was already in mid-air when the power of the Du Gate Formation instinctively poured down, forcibly solidifying the small area beneath his feet.

Almost simultaneously, he used the recoil to dart backward, narrowly avoiding being swallowed by the giant lava maw. A scorching wave of air brushed past him, carrying the pungent smell of sulfur rubbing against rocks. His back slammed heavily against a broken ancient tree, and a sweet taste rose in his throat, which he forcibly swallowed. His gaze, however, remained fixed on the enormous shadow emerging from the earth.

Lin Yue and Han Bingshuo were buried by the mud and rocks from the previous impact, with only half of their clothes showing, their fate unknown;

Shen Che, supporting himself with the Shadow Hunter Short Blade, barely managed to kneel, blood spreading across his chest, making it difficult for the Shadow Hunter Battle Spirit to coalesce again;

Zhao Changfeng lay on the ground, his left arm twisted unnaturally, the wind blade aura as faint as a candle flame;

Without the power of the Great Dao, Zhao Lei suffered repeated serious injuries, and only his mouth and eyes could still move.

Only Liu Jiaqi, Su Wan, and Chen Mo could still move with difficulty, but they were all breathing heavily and their faces were pale.

"Jiaqi! Help!"

Lu Yu roared, and the pale green herbal power within his body, mixed with the vitality of the spiritual plant returning to its origin, surged wildly, repairing his shock injuries. At the same time, a soft green light shot precisely towards the direction where Han Bingshuo was buried.

Liu Jiaqi's face was deathly pale, but the healing white light emanating from her hands did not hesitate at all, like fireflies in the dark night, stubbornly shining towards her comrade's position.

The pangolin missed its target and let out an increasingly frenzied roar. The only remaining core collar around its neck flickered rapidly with red light, and the unstable energy fluctuations caused the surrounding air to distort and heat up.

After its limb collars shattered, it not only gained immense power, but also reached a new level in its use of the earth's power. Its massive body was no longer clumsy, but instead possessed a strange agility that blended seamlessly with the mountain rocks. Its lava pupils swept over the remaining people, finally fixing their gaze on Lu Yu, who had the strongest aura and was the only one still able to stand upright and confront them head-on.

"It...its target is you!" Su Wan's voice trembled as she suppressed the dizziness from the excessive consumption of her spiritual power, the silver light on her fingertips teetering precariously. "In its mind, you are the most obstructive 'mastermind'!"

"We can't let it cause any more widespread destruction!" Shen Che coughed up blood, trying to prop himself up. His Shadow Hunting Power transformed into thin ribbons that wrapped around Lu Yu's ankles. "Down the mountain... someone's coming up!"

Before we knew it, night had fallen. The distant sounds of sirens, shouts from the crowd, and even the hum of drone propellers were clearly audible. Beams of searchlights swept back and forth through the mountains and forests, piercing the darkness like sharp swords.

The intervention of the ordinary world added a heavy moral shackle to this life-or-death battle.

The pangolin seemed to sense the approach of those "faint" life forms, and a violent and destructive impulse surged wildly in its chaotic consciousness. It suddenly stood upright, its forelimbs carrying the force to shatter rocks, no longer aimed at any one person, but slamming them hard into the ground!

"boom--!"

The target of this attack was the large section of mountain between the group and the foot of the mountain! It was going to cause a landslide and bury those "ants" along with Lu Yu and the others!

"Don't even think about it!"

Lu Yu's pupils contracted sharply, and the patterns of the Eight Trigrams Formation rapidly swirled in his mind—the Rest Gate is for defense, the Life Gate for sustaining, the Injury Gate for offense, and the Block Gate for trapping…

However, a single gate was no longer enough to counter this terrifying force capable of altering the terrain.

"The four elements revolve, and the earth's veins return to their origin!"

He increased the speed of his hand seals to the extreme, and the light gold, blue cyan and light green halos in his body merged and rotated in an unprecedented way.

The misty light shield of the Xiu Gate no longer held onto a single point, but instead spread forward like a water curtain, attempting to buffer the impact;

The dark blue light patterns of the Du Gate reversed their direction, no longer solidifying but channeling the force of the pangolin being smashed into the ground, directing it to the uninhabited areas on both sides.

The energy vortex of the Gate of Life frantically absorbed the energy of heaven and earth to replenish his rapidly depleted essence;

The crimson light from the wounded gate gathers at the fingertips, poised to strike.

This is his deepest application of the Eight Trigrams Formation since entering the Dao of Arrays. He forcefully guided the synchronous evolution of the four gates, performing precise regional control and energy guidance!

But this burden on his mental strength and origins had reached a critical point, and his nosebleed flowed uncontrollably, dripping onto his clothes and congealing into dark red blood spots.

But this also pushed his mental strength and essence to the limit, causing his nose to bleed uncontrollably.

"Buzz—"

Suddenly, the Shennong Medicine Cauldron flew out of Lu Yu's dantian on its own, slowly rotating above Lu Yu's head, frantically absorbing the energy of the plants and trees in the world, and then tilting down towards Lu Yu to stabilize the flow of Lu Yu's meridians!

Suddenly, the herb cauldron in his dantian flew out on its own and slowly rotated above his head. The grass and wood patterns engraved on the cauldron shone with a warm blue light, frantically absorbing the vitality of the grass and wood in the world, and then pouring down like sweet rain to stabilize the chaotic flow of his meridians!

The moment the aura of Shennong's Medicine Cauldron appeared, Pangolin No. 1's lava pupils contracted sharply, momentarily freezing in place.

But this stagnation only lasted for half a second. The core collar's red light surged, forcibly suppressing its instincts, and the immense force still slammed into the ground!

"Bang! Boom—!"

With a deafening roar, the light shield of the Rest Gate shattered after violently twisting, and the Du Gate's diversion only managed to transfer 30% of its power. Large swathes of rock collapsed and slid down, sending dust billowing into the sky. A crack several meters wide spread wildly along the mountainside towards the foot of the mountain, and the sound of tumbling rocks was deafening!

"We have to stop the crack!"

Chen Mo's eyes were bloodshot as he shouted, clinging to his last vestiges of insight.

Almost at the same moment he spoke, a faint but firm icy blue light shone through the pile of rubble that buried Han Bingshuo!

"Crackling..."

The biting cold air spread rapidly along the front of the crack, freezing the fractured rock and soil temporarily and slowing down the landslide!

Seeing that its attack had failed, the pangolin became even more enraged. Its massive body suddenly spun around, and its thick, whip-like tail, accompanied by a piercing shriek that tore through the air, swept across Liu Jiaqi, who was struggling to dig for Lin Yue!

If this blow lands, Liu Jiaqi will be turned into mincemeat!

"brute!"

Lu Yu roared, and his pale gold true power transformed into an extremely condensed thin line, which was not shot at the pangolin's body, but was shot with perfect precision at the ground in front of its sweeping path!

The golden thread sank into the ground, and the next moment, an incredibly thick earthen wall, shimmering with pale golden runes, instantly rose from the ground. This was a defense he had created by "enchanting" with his true power, combined with the power of the earth's veins manipulated by the Gate of Du.

"Boom!"

The earthen wall shattered after only a moment under the giant tail's sweeping attack, but in that instant of buffer, Liu Jiaqi had already dragged the unconscious Lin Yue to the side, her back scratched by flying shards of stone, but she held Lin Yue's head tightly.

After suffering repeated setbacks, coupled with the searing pain from the collar around its neck that threatened to explode, the pangolin went completely into a final frenzy.

It ignored everyone else, its lava pupils fixed on Lu Yu, whose aura was fluctuating violently and who was obviously nearing his limit. It stomped its limbs on the ground and its massive body, like a cannonball, charged straight at Lu Yu with the momentum of mutual destruction!

Wherever it passed, the ground was scorched and melted by the magma patterns, the air was distorted and steamed, just like an out-of-control meteorite. It also ignited the dormant subterranean fire, with dark red tongues of fire shooting out from the cracks in the rocks and scorching the vegetation along the way.

Lu Yu took a deep breath, a resolute glint in his eyes. The Four Symbols Revolving Formation suddenly retracted, all its power returning to his own body.

The spiritual plant's body glowed with a surge of blue light, and fine patterns of grass and wood appeared on its surface, resisting the scorching heat of the earth fire.

The true power of pale gold condensed in front of his chest, forming a tiny energy vortex that contained the ultimate truth of heaven and earth, exuding a sharp light that could dispel illusions.

The power of the azure-blue array enveloped his body, ready to adjust and deflect the force at any time;

The azure light of the herb cauldron above his head intensified, and the vitality of the plants surged into his body like a tide, replenishing his rapidly depleted essence.

He didn't dodge or evade, but instead took the devastating blow head-on with his bare body, aiming directly at the cracked core collar that was so close at hand!

"Lu Yu!"

Su Wan cried out in alarm. The psychic silver light rushed towards the pangolin's consciousness, trying to interfere with its charge, but was bounced back by the red light bursting from the collar. She spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground.
