Chapter 773 - 772: A World-Shaking Strike
Chapter 773 - 772: A World-Shaking Strike
Although Han Buxiu forcefully broke through and cannot be considered orthodox, he nevertheless possesses the strength of the Human Immortal Ninth Layer.
Only Ye Qingchen understands how important the elevation of the realm is to a cultivator. The techniques that could not be performed before, those that could not fully exert their power, can all be unleashed at this moment.
It is precisely because of this.
Han Buxiu forcibly activated his Qi Blood and stepped into this realm, intending to crush Ye Qingchen with absolute power!
It's like two children fighting, and suddenly one of them becomes an adult. No matter how many tricks or tactics the child has, how could he win?
"Hmph!"
Ye Qingchen snorted coldly, stepping forward as well.
Within him came a roaring sound like rivers, lakes, and seas, with surging waves. His entire body shone with a jade-like radiance, and golden patterns appeared on his skin, making him resemble a Divine Demon.
The surging starlight True Qi gushed forth like a spring, transforming into a towering torch, blanketing this world with a vast starry sky. At the same time, the manifestation formed by the Sword Spirit and the Heaven-Repairing Fragment also rose behind him, intending to suppress this boiling Life and Death Lake.
"Rise!"
Han Buxiu's expression was incredibly serious, his aura climbing as if endlessly, his long hair standing upright like steel needles, clearly pushing his Qi Blood with no restraints.
However, before his aura reached its peak, Han Buxiu couldn't hold back from making his move.
He suddenly waved his hand.
Amid the roaring sounds, endless water waves churned slowly. Under the shocked gaze of the crowd, they gradually transformed into an extremely majestic dragon. Though there was only one, its presence was even more ferocious than thousands before.
"Go!"
Han Buxiu waved his right hand.
"Boom!"
In the next moment, that dragon bolted out like an untamed stallion. Its massive body carved out a gigantic wave across the lake's surface, spanning between water and sky.
The vast lake was forcibly split apart, revealing two towering walls of water, an awe-inspiring sight that left people breathless.
"Break!"
Ye Qingchen's eyes shone with extraordinary light as his silver hair flew wildly, his robes flapping in the wind.
His body emitted crackling and rumbling sounds like thunder, with his spine rolling like a great dragon, unleashing colossal power that crushed the surrounding void, even causing the water beneath him to sink inexplicably.
"Rumble!"
Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, Ye Qingchen's strike landed on the dragon's body. Though the punch shattered the dragon, he was propelled by the violent, terrifying force, losing balance instantly and shooting back like an arrow, retreating several hundred zhang before stopping.
"Finally, we've seen the moment we've been waiting for! Everything before was just an appetizer; now is the true life-and-death battle!" Countless spectators clenched their fists.
"Hehe, who could have thought that Han Buxiu, at the last moment, pushed his cultivation with Qi Blood and stepped into the Human Immortal Ninth Layer!"
Venerable Red Dragon sneered, "But Han Buxiu truly is a rare genius! We have exhausted all efforts to maintain our cultivation in the Valley of Life and Death, yet he could advance three layers in these three years! If he were in the outside world, what would that be?"
"It's a pity for Ye Qingchen; he stunned everyone with his brilliance and momentum. But who would have thought, after Han Buxiu sat dormant for three years, he'd have this move to push with Qi Blood!" Tang Jianming said with a faint smile.
Meanwhile, Zheng Jiuling and others looked very grim.
Since Han Buxiu stepped into the Human Immortal Ninth Layer, his aura has continuously climbed with no sign of stopping. They don't know whether Ye Qingchen will run out of endurance first, or Han Buxiu's Qi Blood will be depleted.
"Bang!"
Ye Qingchen raised his hand, suppressing a water dragon that lunged at him from below, sneering coldly:
"Han Buxiu, your power is ultimately an illusion. Once your Qi Blood is exhausted, it will vanish into nothing. By that time, not to mention the strength of the Human Immortal Ninth Layer, you might even struggle to maintain your current realm!"
If it were an ordinary opponent, they would have died in Han Buxiu's hands by now. But Ye Qingchen is extremely resilient, with massive yet extremely refined Qi Blood and True Qi.
It's like wearing a set of impenetrable armor!
If he truly had the cultivation of the Human Immortal Ninth Layer, he could slowly strip away Ye Qingchen's defense until he wore him down. However, as Ye Qingchen stated, Han Buxiu's cultivation is an illusion, not even a tenth of a true Human Immortal Ninth Layer's power, and when the time is up, it will vanish into nothing.
By then, how could he confront Ye Qingchen?
This thought made Han Buxiu increasingly anxious.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
Columns of water, following his hand's movements, transformed into terrifying raging dragons, relentlessly charging toward Ye Qingchen from all directions, only to be shattered by him.
Each strike stirred up towering waves.
But the more it went on.
The more anxious Han Buxiu became, his black hair turning completely gray. His Qi Blood was pushed to the limit, and within a half-cup of tea time, his power would begin to wane.
He couldn't kill Ye Qingchen even at his peak, let alone after his power waned.
"Damn it, I can't go on like this!"
"I must finish this guy quickly!"
Han Buxiu stood abruptly in the void, shouting loudly: "Ye Qingchen, getting past me isn't that easy. If you can take my sword, you can do whatever you want with me!"
The people around were all taken aback, their expressions extremely serious. Han Buxiu's last move was obviously not ordinary and would gather all his remaining strength.
Ye Qingchen hesitated slightly, only to see Han Buxiu grab into the air, and the Breaking Army Sword that was knocked away earlier suddenly shot out of the water with a 'whoosh' and steadied in midair.
However, instead of charging forward swiftly like before, he suddenly formed a seal with his hands!
"Splash!"
Suddenly.
Countless silver-white water waves surged into the sky, recklessly rushing toward the Breaking Army Sword. These waves contained the water plants, fish, and shrimp from the Life and Death Lake, eventually converging outside the Breaking Army Sword, gradually forming a giant water sword stretching 8,100 zhang long, spanning the world.
And at his feet, the hundred miles wide Life and Death Lake was forcibly emptied by Han Buxiu's maneuver!
When the giant sword took shape, Sword Qi crisscrossed the heavens and earth, with frost freezing the long river and the world filled with the aura of death. At this time, Han Buxiu's long hair had turned completely snow-white, without a trace of color, flapping wildly in the wind. This indicated he had pushed his Qi Blood to the limit, and the next moment his strength would begin to decline.
But there's no hint of dejection on Han Buxiu's face, only increasing smugness:
"Ye Qingchen, with the power of the Human Immortal Ninth Layer and my lifelong cultivation, I have forged this Supreme Divine Sword! Ye Qingchen, let this sword decide the victor!"
Finished speaking.
He laughed heartily, seemingly using all his strength, suddenly waving his hand!
A sword shadow piercing the heavens suddenly appeared, shocking the world.
