Chapter 498: Chapter 498: Ancient Fairy Battles Ye Cangkun [2]
With that one strike, the entire world seemed to fall into a terrifying silence.
The phantom of the Blood-Colored Battleaxe seemed to manifest in the eyes and hearts of all who watched.
The invincible divine might unleashed by the axe was staggering.
The various Soul Masters, Saint Masters, and Elder-Level experts of the Ancestor Dao Realm were all shaken to their core.
Even having reached the Ancestor Dao Realm, they felt that they would have been unable to withstand such a blow.
The axe, seeming to resonate with the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, directly shattered the invincible Taotie Devouring Heaven Divine Skill.
Darkness exploded, and light manifested in its place.
The Taotie Devouring Heaven Divine Skill was broken with that one strike. Yet Ye Cangkun stood his ground, not retreating a single step. His qi and blood were calm; he seemed completely unaffected by his Divine Technique being shattered.
Ancient Fairy retracted her Battle Axe, which transformed into a blood-colored longsword in her hand. She, too, stood perfectly still.
Her waterfall of black hair danced in the wind, her silk dress rustling. She stood firm and unmoving, completely unharmed.
The strike was incredibly violent, fueled by a heaven-shaking Battle Intent, yet it failed to establish any clear advantage. The two seemed to be evenly matched.
’The Panhuang Life and Death Killing Dao... Fairy has cultivated her own Invincible Will and an unyielding belief in her own supremacy. She has walked a different path. She’s very strong.’
Ye Tianling judged inwardly, a look of profound gratification in his eyes.
Now that Ancient Fairy had reached this stage, he no longer had to worry about her.
From now on, her path would surely be better, stronger, and smoother.
"The Celestial Secret Divine Son’s Panhuang Life and Death Killing Dao is so powerful!"
"It is! This is the same Killing Dao that tormented us. We suffered under this killing intent in Ye Tianling’s Secret Realm. The misery was unbearable."
"I never imagined this Killing Dao could be so terrifying!"
"To think it could pierce and shatter the Taotie Devouring Heaven Divine Skill, a manifestation of the unparalleled Devouring Law! This clash alone has made watching this battle worthwhile."
"She’s so strong. The Celestial Secret Goddess truly lives up to her reputation!"
"And she’s just a disciple of the Celestial Secret Divine Son! It’s impossible to imagine how powerful he must be!"
"In this new World, no matter how strong you are, you can’t surpass the forbidden limit. So he can’t be that much stronger."
"It’s even possible he’s gotten weaker. What goes up must come down. Isn’t that the rule of Heaven and Earth? The Celestial Secret Divine Son had reached the absolute limit of power before. I’m afraid he might be on the decline now, right?"
...
The discussions continued unabated.
And the battle raged on.
After their exchange, Ancient Fairy took the initiative.
With her Battle Axe transformed into a sword, the Panhuang Life and Death Killing Dao she unleashed was even more powerful.
She seemed to manifest an unparalleled Charm Talent, merging it with her Panhuang Life and Death Killing Dao.
WHOOSH—
In that instant, Ancient Fairy became a sword herself. Her body transformed into a three-to-four-meter-long blade of blood-red and violet light that shot across the sky.
The Sword Intent shot toward the heavens, as if the peerless Sword Venerate Dominating Body had awakened once more. In that instant, an invincible will for slaughter converged, and the sword unleashed an ancient Sword Intent.
Like a Sword God from the Primordial Era descending upon the world, her sword strike carried an Immortal will.
BOOM—
As the sword lanced out, it seemed to collapse the Void, piercing through the endless Dao Marks and Laws of Heaven and Earth.
The terrifying Sword Intent and Battle Soul contained within that single strike left Ye Cangkun utterly stunned.
His pupils contracted, and he instantly tried to evade.
But the sword seemed to lock onto him. No matter how he tried to evade, it stuck to him like a persistent shadow, impossible to shake.
In a fraction of an instant, Ye Cangkun tapped the spot between his eyebrows, and a jet-black Heavy Saber suddenly appeared in his hand.
HISSS—
The next moment, Ye Cangkun manifested his invincible War Body as the projection of a peerless Taotie Divine Beast appeared.
His body instantly swelled, growing to a massive thousand meters in size and occupying a vast expanse of the Void.
It was a colossal Fierce Beast War Body, covered in bone spurs.
Invincible power surged from him, and his War Saber seemed to become one with his Taotie Battle Body.
A Heavy Saber.
A peerless Battle Sword.
BOOM—
The Heavy Saber swung out, unleashing a primeval Profound Meaning and an endless Devouring Killing Dao with a single slash.
"That’s the Taotie War Saber! The Tyrant Saber Killing Dao!"
A Saint Master Level expert recognized the origin of this Cultivation Technique and couldn’t help but cry out in alarm.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
One slash was followed immediately by another, and then another still.
Like a Ninth Layer stacking effect, each slash was more terrifying than the one before it.
Through this method, Ye Cangkun actually managed to stack his Battle Power to 150%!
PFFT—
The blood-colored Battle Sword vibrated violently, yet it simultaneously erupted with an even fiercer killing intent.
A new Profound Meaning was even being derived from the Panhuang Life and Death Killing Dao.
The deadly dance of saber and sword continued unabated.
Destructive, chaotic Energy continuously exploded outward, ravaging Heaven and Earth.
Many of the Saint Master Level experts had to use protective techniques to block the impact of the aftershocks. Otherwise, some of the ordinary Saint Sons and Saintesses would have been caught in the crossfire and killed by the tremors alone.
"This is a world-ending storm!"
Some of the ordinary Cultivators watching from afar turned pale with fright, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.
They had never witnessed such a terrifying battle. Seeing it happen in this new World, under its new rules, was far more shocking than any scene they had ever watched on a Projection Stone.
The scene was truly breathtaking.
Ye Cangkun, in his thousand-meter War Body, manifested his Taotie Battle Soul. He became the Tyrant Saber Killing Dao, like a blazing sun of Destruction unleashing a dazzling light of the Dao.
Meanwhile, Ancient Fairy was like a peerless Blood-Colored Crescent Moon. She transformed her Battle Sword into a Blood Moon, also a thousand meters in size. She had actually traced the technique back to its very source, manifesting a Totem from the Panhuang Life and Death Killing Dao that not even Ye Tianling himself had ever brought forth.
It was like two planets colliding, a blazing sun clashing with a radiant moon.
In this battle, every collision shook heaven and earth, threatening to tear the very sky asunder.
Each clash left the crowd reeling, their hearts pounding in utter terror.
All of them—the Unparalleled Divine Sons and Divine Ladies, the Saint Sons and Saintesses, the Princes and Princesses—were stunned by such Battle Power.
And one must remember, this Ancient Fairy was still Ye Tianling’s disciple!
If the disciple was this formidable, how powerful could her master be?
"This disciple of Ye Tianling’s is a stunning talent! To think she mastered the Slaughter Technique of the Blood Moon Secret Realm!"
"Such boldness! To manifest the sun and moon in battle... it’s simply heaven-defying!"
"This level of Battle Power is simply astonishing!"
"Both are at the Near Nine level of Battle Power, and both are unleashing around 150% of their strength! And remember, neither of them is from the Soul Race! This puts our own Saint Sons and Saintesses to shame!"
"With such spirit, one can only imagine how far they’ll go in the future!"
"She is a true Goddess, and he is a true Divine Child! Regardless of who wins or loses, this battle will be recorded in the annals of history!"
