Chapter 1826 - 1693: Forced on the Defensive
"Ants, meet your death!"
The Heavenly Prince shouted, his hand formed into a blade, and the emanation from his palm, like a Heavenly Blade, split the void and severed time, causing a chaotic flow of space-time.
Hmm?
Ye Fan’s heart shuddered; the Heavenly Prince’s power was indeed formidable.
Just from this move alone, one could tell the Heavenly Prince’s strength was truly unfathomable.
"Boom!"
Ye Fan employed the Xuandi Fist, fiercely clashing against the Heavenly Prince’s Hand Blade, unleashing a burst of powerful radiance.
Crack!
The ground under Chi Yue Ridge crumbled like paper, with large crisscrossing rifts opening in the earth.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
...
After one move, the two engaged in fierce combat, fighting faster and faster, purely in physical combat, completely abandoning their divine skills and secret techniques, battling with martial arts and divine power alone.
The Divine Light split the heavens, dazzlingly bright, and the aura of destruction enveloped the entire Chi Yue Ridge, as golden and multicolored blood continuously splattered; both were slightly injured.
"Immortal Stele Scattering Hand!"
Ye Fan suddenly changed moves, unleashing a palm strike, a massive black hand overshadowed the sky, slapping towards the Heavenly Prince. The terrifying aura made many cultivators slightly nearby feel their legs weaken; such an attack, anyone below the Venerable Realm would absolutely not withstand.
The Heavenly Prince’s eyes emitted two strong rays, coldly said: "Trivial skill, see how I break you!"
As he spoke, the Heavenly Prince clasped his hands together, spinning like a top, directly drilled a large hole through the black hand, surged up from beneath, and punched towards Ye Fan.
"Bang!"
Ye Fan failed to evade, getting half of his body smashed by a punch, blood dyed the sky, fragments of flesh flew, like a rain of blood and flesh.
"No..."
"Ye Zi..."
Yaling painfully closed her eyes.
From the previous exchange, Ye Fan was completely at a disadvantage; the disparity in strength between the two was too great, even Ye Fan fighting desperately was unlikely to reverse the situation.
Hu Fei and Shi Ye and others were eye-wide, exclaiming.
This scene, too harrowing, although Ye Fan had the Phoenix Nirvana Technique for rebirth, it was of no avail.
"Heavenly Prince will surely win!"
"Tear him apart!!"
The Demon Clan side cheered; they also saw that in this confrontation, the Heavenly Prince clearly held the upper hand.
Life and death battle, once at a disadvantage, unless there’s a heaven-defying trump card, it’s very hard to turn around!
What’s more, the Heavenly Prince’s strength is clearly superior to Ye Fan?
"Buzz!"
Ye Fan deployed the Chasing Star Step, instantly fleeing afar, then activated the Phoenix Nirvana Technique for rebirth, his body fully restored.
"Rise!"
With a loud shout, Ye Fan directly summoned a Dragon Vein from beneath Chi Yue Ridge, swinging it like a giant dragon at the Heavenly Prince.
"Boom!"
The span of the mountain range crumbled under Ye Fan’s strike, yet the Heavenly Prince dodged the attack, quickly surged forward, and continued battling with Ye Fan.
Ye Fan’s eyes emitted dragon-shaped Divine Light, using Earth Observation Technique to assess the terrain, discovering three Dragon Veins and a Spirit Stone Mine vein underneath Chi Yue Ridge, while not a rich mine, it was still utilizable.
With the help of Dragon Seeking Formulas, Ye Fan quickly borrowed Earth Vein Dragon Qi, his combat power suddenly soared, matching up evenly with the Heavenly Prince; Chi Yue Ridge was entirely suffused with Divine Power radiance, hardly visible from the outside of their battle situation.
"Is this the grandeur of the strongest bloodline? Indeed powerful, ordinary cultivators are no match; in the same realm, I’m afraid they can’t even take a single move."
"For Ye Fan to persist until now is already a miracle, after all, there’s a difference of two Xiao realms between them."
The people were astonished, gaining a new understanding of the Heavenly Prince’s power; among the younger generation, truly nobody seemed to be his match.
The Heavenly Prince indeed had unmatched bloodline, even as Emperor’s son compared to Ancient Immortal, he was significantly stronger, and his use of Domain Power was masterful.
If not for Ye Fan having exceptional talent, an incredibly strong body, he surely couldn’t have persisted so long.
Furthermore, Ye Fan’s trump cards seemed endless.
Each time it seemed he was at the brink, he always managed to burst out powerful strength to overcome crises, ultimately enduring.
In an instant, over a thousand moves passed, the Heavenly Prince became gradually impatient; taking so long to deal with a early Lord Realm Human Race ant, incredibly inconceivable.
The earth shattered, mass expanses flattened, with some places even becoming bottomless chasms, showing the ferocity of their battle.
"Die for me!"
The Heavenly Prince gradually lost patience, employing the Sky Demon Emperor’s secret technique, an Elemental Divine Chain swept toward Ye Fan’s brow.
"Buzz!"
In a moment of peril, Ye Fan expanded the Absolute Defense of the Eight Phase World Domain, eight elemental runes encircled him forming a ring, rapidly spinning, eroding away the Elemental Divine Chain.
"Domain Power?"
The Heavenly Prince’s eye twitched, coldly said: "We are both in the Lord Realm, your Domain means nothing to me!"
Phew!
As his words fell, the Heavenly Prince once again launched an attack on Ye Fan, his entire body surrounded by Holy Light, making him appear like a Demon God, with black hair flying backward.
"Boom!"
The Heavenly Prince’s fist fiercely struck Ye Fan’s Domain, fingers intertwined with Heaven and Earth Tao Markings, instantly shattering Ye Fan’s Eight Phase World Domain.
The eight Elemental Runes flickered and then entered his Dantian.
"Pfft!"
Ye Fan couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood, his face turning pale; his strongest defense, the Eight Phase World Domain, had been breached by the Heavenly Prince.
"The Heavenly Prince is mighty!"
"Heavenly Prince, kill him!"
The Demon Clan burst into cheers; Ye Fan’s Eight Phase World Domain was known as Absolute Defense, impossible to breach, yet now it had been broken by the Heavenly Prince, and he was severely wounded. How could they not be excited?
The older generation of strong people from the Sky Demon Clan stroked their beards and smiled; the Heavenly Prince wanted to follow the path of the Sky Demon Emperor and naturally had to eliminate all opponents.
In contrast, it was silent among the Human Race, everyone was dumbfounded!
Ye Fan’s Absolute Defense was broken, and he was seriously injured; is there still a need to continue this battle?
The hearts of Old Bastard and other strong people from the older generation tightened instantly, their expressions turning extremely grave.
At this moment, they truly felt despair; Ye Fan was the strongest among the young cultivators of the Human Race, and if even he could not defeat the Heavenly Prince, then there was truly no hope for the young generation of the Human Race.
Moreover, more deadly was that this was a fight to the death, deciding victory or defeat, life or death. Defeat meant death.
"Ye Zi..."
Hu Fei and Shi Ye cried out in shock; no one understood Ye Fan more than they did. Once the Absolute Defense of the Eight Phase World Domain was broken, it was as if Ye Fan had lost his defensive shield.
"Ye Fan..."
Yaling’s heart was in her throat, her eyes filled with worry.
"The Heavenly Prince is too strong; he’s invincible among the same generation!"
Some Human Race cultivators murmured.
"So self-righteous. If he hadn’t proactively provoked the Demon Clan, how could he have ended up in this situation? He brought it upon himself!" Some self-proclaimed Defenders of the Human Race said coldly.
"Did you hear that? Even if you stand up for the Human Race, they will still not be grateful and instead resent you." The Heavenly Prince looked down at Ye Fan, like a Divine overlooking ants.
Obviously, in his view, this competition was already in the bag, and he could kill Ye Fan whenever he wanted.
"Some things must be done, and I won’t be swayed by what others say. Everything I do is true to my conscience."
Ye Fan responded coldly, and at the same time, he suddenly realized why he hadn’t been able to break through to the Mid-Stage of the Lord Realm.
There was always a flaw in his heart, and it was this deliberately forgotten flaw that had prevented him from breaking through.
This flaw was emotion. For Su Liuli, he had always deliberately rejected feelings from any woman, including Yaling and Tong Qianchen.
It was not until just now that he completely understood that emotions cannot be suppressed; otherwise, they become a sticking point affecting cultivation. Only by going with the flow can one be in harmony with Heavenly Dao and ethics.
At this moment, he gained enlightenment, and the flaw in his heart quietly disappeared. This flaw had been mended the moment he accepted Yaling’s feelings, and only now did he truly face it all.
"Indeed, a fight to the death presents an opportunity!"
Ye Fan secretly sighed, his whole body filled with even stronger War Intent.
Although he was covered in wounds at the moment, bloodstained and looking miserable, in reality, he was not too seriously injured.
The Divine shadows in his 360 acupoints had solidified, allowing him to store Divine Power in 360 Holy Embryos, more than others.
"With just this bit of strength, you dare say that my Demon Clan genius doesn’t dare to take the stage? Truly clueless!"
The Heavenly Prince stood in the void, looking at Ye Fan with disdain like a giant dragon watching ants, "This time next year will be your death anniversary!"
"Is that so?"
Ye Fan stood up, squinting his eyes, and said coldly, "I’m afraid you won’t have the chance!"
Hoo-la—
As his words ended, blinding light emitted from Ye Fan’s body, surrounding him with intensely dense Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.
One by one, Heaven Grade Spirit Stones, containing terrifying Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, appeared beside Ye Fan, surrounding him like stars, untouched by dust.
"What is he doing?"
"Is he replenishing Divine Power at this time?"
"This is the moment of life and death, and he still has the mind to refine Spirit Stones to replenish Divine Power?"
No one understood what Ye Fan intended to do, taking out so many Heaven Grade Spirit Stones at this moment.
Of course, some cultivators were jealous, gulping as they swallowed their saliva. These were Heaven Grade Spirit Stones, hard to come by even in the Holy Land. What exactly did he intend to do?
What did he intend to do?
Ye Fan quickly provided an answer.
He intended to break through his realm in this life-and-death battle, to charge into the Mid-Stage of the Lord Realm, creating an ancient precedent!
