Lu Ye’s fists were bleeding.
Even after losing his most powerful Dao of Protection, with the rest of his Daos at their peak, he was still at a disadvantage against the fully awakened Imperial Dao.
Despite unleashing his Heavenly Lord Fist with full force, blood still dripped from his knuckles.
But on the opposite side —
Jiang Li, who was once a stunning beauty, now appeared aged and haggard, her body becoming increasingly translucent.
Her hand, clutching the Imperial weapon, the Void Extinguishing Spear, trembled incessantly, her eyes filled with uncontrollable shock.
To take on the devastatingly powerful Imperial weapon, the Void Extinguishing Spear, with bare fists, and only suffer a single wound —
How could that be possible?
Unless this Lu Ye was a true Emperor!
Lu Ye moved again!
A Dao ignited, burning to ashes, but the remaining Daos erupted with an even more terrifying aura.
This Dao, one that Lu Ye had often burned in his previous life, was the Dao of Everlasting Vitality.
As long as it wasn’t completely obliterated at its root, it would rapidly regrow.
Lu Ye’s fist recovered.
In this world, there were very few problems that a single Heavenly Lord Fist couldn’t solve.
If one punch wasn’t enough, then two would do.
“Heavenly Lord Fist!”
Faster and more ferocious than before!
Jiang Li let out a desperate scream.
“Void’s Eternal Destruction, Dao shall cease to exist!”
“Imperial Art: Void Annihilation!”
Another earth-shattering collision.
This time, Jiang Li threw everything she had into her strike. Not only did she use her Imperial weapon, but she also unleashed her Imperial Art.
But the opponent she faced was the Heavenly Lord Fist!
“Boom!”
The Void Extinguishing Spear pierced through Lu Ye’s fist and exited through his shoulder, tearing his body apart.
However, under the simultaneous assault of countless Daos, Jiang Li’s body was instantly reduced to dust.
Her body turning to dust signified the complete collapse of her Dao.
Lu Ye had won.
Yet, he was in a rather sorry state.
But it didn’t matter.
Lu Ye grasped the Void Extinguishing Spear.
The spear emitted a low hum, the Imperial Dao traces surging wildly. Even such lingering traces could easily obliterate countless cultivators.
But this was the Chaos Dojo!
Lu Ye ignored the Imperial Dao traces, and inch by inch, he pulled the Void Extinguishing Spear from his shoulder.
This pain was nothing compared to the Primordial Morning Mist.
Astonishingly, an Imperial weapon had fallen into his hands?
Honestly, this was an unexpected gain for Lu Ye. Imperial weapons were far beyond the reach of someone currently in the Third Heaven like him.
Only within the Chaos Dojo could Lu Ye hold onto such a weapon.
If he attempted to leave the Chaos Dojo with the Imperial weapon, it would immediately reduce him to ashes.
His wounds struggled to heal.
Injuries inflicted by an Imperial weapon were ones that many people could never recover from in their entire lives.
Even for Lu Ye, it was a major challenge. Fortunately, he now possessed the Dao of Extinction. Although he hadn’t fully reached the Heavenly Lord level, he had at least achieved the Emperor level.
This meant that Lu Ye’s strongest Dao was now the Dao of Extinction.
By annihilating the Imperial Dao intent left by the weapon with the Dao of ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) Extinction, only the physical wounds remained, allowing for quicker recovery.
Lu Ye stared at the Void Extinguishing Spear, his expression contemplative.
An Imperial weapon would never submit to another, especially to someone who was an enemy of the Jiang Clan.
Then... he would destroy it.
The Dao of Extinction enveloped the Void Extinguishing Spear. The spear was forged from Void Celestial Gold and Red Sky Divine Gold. Though the materials were of the lowest grade, in the absence of a suitable user, their value lay in the raw materials themselves.
The artifact spirit and the Imperial Dao within the spear couldn’t be extinguished immediately.
Lu Ye vanished, taking the Void Extinguishing Spear with him.
He intended to continue nourishing his Dao of Seeking.
The Chaos Dojo finally fell silent. Countless Daoists had been scared out of their wits.
What the hell was going on?
Was another era of chaos upon them?
Since entering the Chaos Dojo, a peerless Emperor had initiated an earth-shattering hunt.
Moreover, three other auras, seemingly above the level of an Emperor, had clashed in battle.
Before the tumult had even settled, an Imperial weapon had emerged, slaughtering its enemies.
Now, the world had finally calmed down.
Many people let out a sigh of relief.
Finally, it was over.
“Boundless Heavenly Lord, that was terrifying!”
Many of those who had cultivated their invincible Daos felt both fear and exhilaration. One day, they too would become this strong, invincible in the mortal world.
...
Time passed slowly.
Lu Ye continued searching for pure Dao intents to nourish his Dao of Seeking. With every bit of growth, his cultivation path would become smoother.
Although his actual cultivation level in reality wouldn’t increase, when the Chaos Dojo ended, as long as he had sufficient resources, Lu Ye’s cultivation progress could skyrocket severalfold, or even dozens of times.
He continued to hold the Void Extinguishing Spear in his hand.
The Dao of Extinction relentlessly eroded the Imperial Dao within the spear.
The Void Extinguishing Spear remained silent, not begging for mercy, not even reacting.
There might be Emperors who fell into darkness, but none of them would beg for mercy.
Similarly, Imperial weapons might be tainted by darkness, but they too would never beg for mercy.
The higher the cultivation, the more resolute the Dao heart.
Under the continuous erosion of the Dao of Extinction, the Imperial Dao within the Void Extinguishing Spear grew increasingly dim.
A month passed in the blink of an eye.
A faint sigh echoed from within the spear.
The Void Extinguishing Spear trembled one last time, a final act of defiance against Lu Ye. Its Imperial Dao had been completely extinguished.
From now on, the Void Extinguishing Spear no longer existed in this world.
Lu Ye felt a sense of melancholy. Sometimes, even a mere weapon could be worthy of respect.
Anyone with an unyielding Dao heart was deserving of respect.
Just as Lu Ye had thought.
If these women, after his rebirth, had truly chosen to let him go, never sought him out, and dedicated themselves solely to the Dao —
Then Lu Ye wouldn’t harbor hatred in his heart. In fact, he might even admire them to some extent.
But now...
“Boom!”
A deafening roar resounded.
The Chaos Dojo began to close. All the Daos felt a repelling force.
A power attached itself to every Dao, and as long as one didn’t resist, they would be instantly teleported back to their original location.
Streams of light shot off in all directions.
Lu Ye didn’t bother paying attention to what else was happening in the Chaos Dojo. There was nothing worth noting.
Gripping the Void Extinguishing Spear, he chose to leave.
In an instant, the void flipped.
Lu Ye opened his eyes in the Three Valleys Dead Zone.
The Void Extinguishing Spear was embedded in the ground before him, exuding no aura whatsoever.
In truth, it was no longer the Void Extinguishing Spear, but rather a fusion of Void Celestial Gold and Red Sky Divine Gold.
Lu Ye grabbed the spear.
With a firm grip.
“Hm, not too heavy.”
Now, the Stone Sword was in for a treat. With these two divine materials, its power would undoubtedly soar.
“Rumble...”
A thunderous roar echoed from within Lu Ye’s body.
The surrounding spiritual energy surged, frantically converging toward him.
Lu Ye raised his hand, and a large number of spirit stones flew out.
“Begin cultivation!”
“Ding! Cultivation initiated!”
