Chapter 3614: Endurance Battle
Immortal Exalt Wei Qi hovered in the air inside the ancient battlefield. He shone with blinding light, making the temperature across the entire place rapidly rise.
The way he had grasped was the Laws of the Sun.
At that moment, enveloped by the powerful light from the Laws of the Sun, Immortal Exalt Wei Qi seemed like a real sun. Not only was it impossible to stare at him directly, but terrifying heat filled the surroundings and roasted the entire ancient battlefield.
“Even if you lose this battle, it won’t be embarrassing. However, I definitely can’t let you leave in one piece. I will make you pay the corresponding price for challenging me so that you understand that Immortal Exalts aren’t people you can just challenge,” Immortal Exalt Wei Qi said sternly as his voice boomed out, echoing through the entire battlefield. The terrifying sound waves left Jian Chen’s ear drums aching.
Only now did Immortal Exalt Wei Qi finally demonstrate a glimmer of his strength as an Immortal Exalt.
Jian Chen was solemn like he was facing a great opponent. Immortal Exalt Wei Qi had already reached the Second Heavenly Layer, a true Immortal Exalt. It was a completely different situation from Ye Qingyun. After all, he had ingested a special pill from the previous aeon to temporarily receive the power of an Immortal Exalt.
Unable to use the twin swords or Profound Sword Qi, all he could rely on was the Shadowless Lifetaking Strike and the Source of Life in a battle against an Immortal Exalt. He had to face Immortal Exalt Wei Qi in an endurance battle and see who could last to the very end.
“Go on, Chang Yang. Let’s see whether your secret technique that can bypass defences can threaten me or not.”
Seeing how Jian Chen remained silent, Immortal Exalt Wei Qi spoke up. At the same time, his tremendous energy as a Second Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt instantly covered his body, like it had turned into a sturdy wall of energy that protected his organs.
Even Immortal Exalt Wei Qi was extremely cautious towards Jian Chen’s unguardable secret technique.
At the same time, Jian Chen’s gaze sharpened. Gripping the medium quality god artifact sword, he unleashed the Shadowless Lifetaking Strike and slashed at Immortal Exalt Wei Qi from afar.
Faced with a Second Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt in peak condition, all of Jian Chen’s attacks were useless apart from the Shadowless Lifetaking Strike.
After all, Immortal Exalt Wei Qi was completely different from Nan Potian that he had encountered before. Nan Potian was an Immortal Exalt, but he was only at the First Heavenly Layer. Mo Tianyun had destroyed his original body, so his strength was greatly weakened.
As a result, Immortal Exalt Wei Qi’s strength was far above Nan Potian’s in the past.
When Immortal Exalt Wei Qi saw Jian Chen’s sword disappear, he immediately became stern. His tremendous energy that filled his entire body circulated furiously, guarding his body at full strength.
In the next moment, Immortal Exalt Wei Qi clearly sensed a powerful sword Qi that appeared in his body without any prior signs. The sharp sword Qi erupted instantly.
Immortal Exalt Wei Qi immediately trembled, his eyes narrowing. Shock appeared in the depths of his eyes. He could not help but let out an extremely stifled grunt.
A series of long slashes appeared on his organs in his body.
Despite guarding his organs with his tremendous energy beforehand, he only managed to suppress part of the Shadowless Lifetaking Strike’s might and could not avoid suffering some damage.
“Dammit, what is this secret technique? It’s actually so mysterious,” Immortal Exalt Wei Qi cursed inside. His internal defences were unable to match his external defences after all. After personally experiencing the attack, he immediately understood that he could not stop the Shadowless Lifetaking Strike completely.
The only advantage he possessed was that the injuries he suffered from the Shadowless Lifetaking Strike were much lighter than what a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor would sustain.
Jian Chen frowned. He also discovered that the threat the Shadowless Lifetaking Strike posed to Immortal Exalts had greatly diminished.
But with some further thought, it made sense. After all, the Shadowless Lifetaking Strike’s power was still closely linked with his personal comprehension.
In the future, as his comprehension of the Laws of Space and the Laws of the Sword increased, the Shadowless Lifetaking Strike would also grow in strength.
Suddenly, a ball of blinding light bloomed before Jian Chen. Immortal Exalt Wei Qi had silently appeared before him. He immediately struck Jian Chen’s chest with his hand that contained the Laws of the Sun that radiated with terrifying heat.
Bang! Jian Chen was launched far away. The flesh on his chest melted away at a visible rate, having been incinerated to nothingness by Immortal Exalt Wei Qi’s Laws of the Sun.
But shortly afterwards, his injuries were rapidly healed by the Source of Life. Even the lingering power from the Laws of the Sun had been completely cleansed by the power of the Source of Life.
Immortal Exalt Wei Qi frowned slightly. In the next moment, he extended a finger towards Jian Chen from afar like a sword.
Immediately, a streak of golden light shot through the sky and pierced Jian Chen. The terrifying Laws of the Sun scorched him, making his wounds rapidly grow larger.
But in the next moment, Jian Chen’s injuries stabilised and recovered at an unbelievable rate.
“Such powerful regeneration has basically bestowed you with an undying body, but I refuse to believe this regeneration is actually endless.”
“Chang Yang, hopefully, you can last a little longer.” Immortal Exalt Wei Qi sneered. In the next moment, he formed a seal with his hands and bellowed out, “Scorching the World!”
Immediately, Immortal Exalt Wei Qi erupted with light, illuminating the entire ancient battlefield.
Immortal Exalt Wei Qi seemed to turn into an actual sun. The flames of the sun scorched on him before turning into a colossal plume that blasted away, instantly enveloping Jian Chen.
Jian Chen’s expression changed. At that moment, he felt like he had been thrown into purgatory. The scorching sun enveloped him, furiously incinerating his body. His entire body racked with excruciating pain as his flesh melted away at a visible rate. Even his Chaotic Body that had reached the seventeenth layer could not last for too long.
But shortly afterwards, the power of life surged out of his body, and his injuries healed at an even faster rate.
Before him, Immortal Exalt Wei Qi hovered in the air with his hands as seals. He stared at Jian Chen coldly. He had not stopped using the secret technique. He planned on using the lasting damage from the secret technique to deplete the energy of life in Jian Chen’s body.
The Source of Life constantly healed Jian Chen’s injuries. Jian Chen endured the hellish pain, gritting his teeth under the scorching heat of the sun.
Very soon, half a minute had passed.
Jian Chen raised his medium quality god artifact sword that had already turned red from the heat and used the Shadowless Lifetaking Strike a second time. A streak of sword Qi bypassed the distance of space and ignored all defences, directly erupting inside Immortal Exalt Wei Qi.
Immortal Exalt Wei Qi shuddered violently. The secret technique he maintained fluctuated in an unstable manner.
After another half a minute, Jian Chen raised his medium quality god artifact sword that was on the brink of melting and used the Shadowless Lifetaking Strike a third time!
This time, Immortal Exalt Wei Qi shook even more violently. His face paled.
Time trickled by. As a sun, Immortal Exalt Wei Qi maintained his scorching of Jian Chen with the flames. His energy was being rapidly depleted.
Very soon, the second minute had passed, and the medium quality god artifact sword in Jian Chen’s hand had already melted away into a puddle. His clothes had been incinerated as well. He did not take out a new god artifact. Instead, he directly formed a sword with his fingers and used the Shadowless Lifetaking Strike a fourth time.
Using the Shadowless Lifetaking Strike a fifth time…
Using the Shadowless Lifetaking Strike a sixth time…
When he used the Shadowless Lifetaking Strike a sixth time, a trace of blood finally oozed out from the corner of Immortal Exalt Wei Qi’s mouth.
Of course, this kind of damage was nothing to an Immortal Exalt.
Just like that, Jian Chen used the Source of Life to sustain himself, remaining standing under the scorching of the sun. He used the Shadowless Lifetaking Strike again and again, gradually worsening the injuries within Immortal Exalt Wei Qi's body. Even his face became paler and paler as a result.
After continuing for three days, Immortal Exalt Wei Qi finally caved in, gritting his teeth and ingesting a healing pill with a face filled with pain.
This was a high grade God Tier pill. For Immortal Exalts, mid grade God Tier pills could no longer satisfy their needs. Only high grade God Tier pills had any visible effects.
But even to Immortal Exalt Wei Qi, high grade God Tier pills were something he wanted to conserve. Even wasting a single one caused him much pain.
As soon as the high grade God Tier pill reached his belly, Immortal Exalt Wei Qi's injuries rapidly stabilised. Afterwards, under the intense effects of the pill, he rapidly began to heal.
However, after another three days, Immortal Exalt Wei Qi's expression became ugly. Gazing at Jian Chen whose energy of life still showed no signs of running out, he ingested another healing high grade God Tier pill painfully after some deliberation.
