Chapter 1020 - 1019: Divine Demon War
Boom!
With a shout, dozens of immense pressures surged into the sky in an instant, filling the entire Black Water River. In the blink of an eye, it transformed into an overwhelming torrent, as if the waters of the nine heavens were cascading down.
What horror comes from the full force release of a Half-Step Celestial Immortal?
The vast Black Water River turned into a boiling angry sea.
The river embankments collapsed, massive stones along the shore, towering ancient trees, were instantly crushed under the immense pressure, turning into powder. Countless demon beasts frantically fled in all directions, such a scene was like the end of the world!
"Boom!"
A tremendous sound.
Ye Qingchen soared into the air, the wooden boat he was on already crushed into pieces under this pressure. The river beneath him exploded, turning into a torrential downpour, wildly scattering!
Almost simultaneously.
The powerhouse of the heavens had already made their move!
"Not good! Quickly retreat!"
Zuo Yuntao’s face changed dramatically, almost without any hesitation, he wrapped his True Qi around Zuo Jing and quickly fled to the distance.
"Oh my god!"
The earlier Ye Feng was also pale-faced, frantically escaping.
This battle, on one side like gods and demons, shaking the Thirty-Six Sects, and being the source of the seal over Southern Heaven. On the other side, stationed in Southern Heaven were the Thirty-Six Sects, each participant being a Half-Step Celestial Immortal!
If anyone gets caught in the fray, they would immediately be like ants, instantly torn to pieces.
"Boom!"
The Vajra Temple’s Buddha, having the deepest grudge with Ye Qingchen, was the first to strike with a palm.
His surging palm, terrifying power, fiercely struck from the palm. This force was originally formless and shapeless, but upon meeting the rain, it immediately marked the terrifying trace, as if this palm carried the torrential rain and smashed down furiously!
Even before this palm could fall, the immense river surface abruptly caved in, revealing a gigantic palm print!
"Die!"
Cyan Flame Sect’s Cloud Fire Tide, eyes glaring in rage.
He unfurled his robe and immediately unleashed a blaze of red flame. This blaze flew through the air, instantly dividing into two, then two into four, in the blink of an eye transforming into a fire rain that covered the sky.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
As soon as these rain of fire appeared, they swept through the void at high speed, targeting Ye Qingchen. Even a drop of fire rain fell on a rock, directly burning the huge rock into exploding.
Sword Vein Sect’s Jiang Ran’s eyes narrowed, slicing through the air.
"Swish!"
In an instant.
The rain curtain filled the sky, transforming into formidable and sharp water swords. These water swords were three feet seven inches long, each razor-sharp, and carried evenly spread cloud patterns.
More so, with his hand raised in a wave, countless water swords were already shooting out in endless powerful bursts, covering the sky and earth, aiming to kill Ye Qingchen.
And at this moment.
Other powerhouses also made their move.
Thirty-five Half-Step Celestial Immortal powerhouses from various places gathered here, suppressing the entire Southern Heaven, setting up a lethal array. Finally, at this moment, they struck, and with one move, a certain kill, joining forces, leaving Ye Qingchen no room to retreat!
"Rumble!"
At this moment, the overwhelming sound, like a thunderstorm, instantly spread far and wide. Even hundreds of miles away, it could be clearly heard. And the cultivators in the distant Seaside City were shocked, staring in disbelief.
"What’s happening?"
"This aura is incredibly terrifying, and it’s not just one source..."
"Who are they striking against?"
The crowd scrambled out, looking toward the direction of Black Water River.
Only to find that the sky and earth in that direction were filled with dark clouds, Buddha light, thunder, rainwater, the entire heaven and earth in chaos.
"Could it be that ultimate fearsome demon appeared?"
Some people thought in their hearts.
This group of strong individuals laying down the killing array, each one a Half-Step Celestial Immortal, some possessing power not inferior to Su Moran in his peak. In this instant, the combined siege was even more terrifying than at Taotian Palace several times over!
However.
This moment, Ye Qingchen not only showed no fear, but instead laughed heartily:
"All together?"
"Well come!"
He laughed heartily, his long, ink-like hair danced without wind, his robe fluttered fiercely, and his Qi Blood surged like a sea, his immense True Qi erupted like a volcano.
"Break!"
He wrapped his left arm around Su Moran and twisted his backhand, raising his palm in response. The immense overturning palm force appeared entirely in his hand, as if reversing the cosmos in an instant, it crashed heavily onto the descending Buddha Palm.
"Boom!"
Like two mountains colliding fiercely, the terrifying sound seemed to shatter the heavens and the earth.
With the two as the center, the earth trembled violently, and a vast wave of Powerful Qi spread out like thousands of troops, sweeping across tens of miles. Everywhere it passed, mountains and forests were razed to the ground.
"Bang!"
In an instant.
The two separated upon impact.
"This demon is even stronger than he was at Taotian Palace!"
Fuluo was filled with shock internally, though he hadn’t personally witnessed the battle at Taotian Palace, he could deduce Ye Qingchen’s power from external descriptions.
"I originally thought, after he couldn’t use the Heaven-Slaying Immortal Sword Scripture, his strength would drop a few ranks, and a top-level Earth Immortal could capture him. But now it seems, I underestimated him..." Fuluo only felt incredulous.
Ye Qingchen’s strength had grown too fast, too terrifying, far beyond normal imagination.
And at this time.
After Ye Qingchen swung his palm, he already summoned the Star Sword with his right hand, shooting towards the sky, shredding the pouring rain of fire. Then with a step forward, he charged out like a mammoth elephant, crashing fiercely towards the rushing Wu Jing Peak, the winds surged and the earth tore apart.
Then he clapped his hands together, forcibly stirring up the whirlwind of this realm, transforming into a massive Cyan Dragon with manifesting fangs, directly charging into Jiang Ran’s sky-covering sword rain!
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"
In that instant, Ye Qingchen had already clashed with dozens of powerhouses.
Suddenly.
The entire realm was filled with the sound of tremors.
The enormous Black Water River was ripped apart in an instant, although the Water Demon Ape had fled in the moment of action, it still couldn’t evade the Powerful Qi of these Half-Step Celestial Immortals, not even a scream before being erased completely on the spot.
Meanwhile, Su Moran and the Water Demon Ape were spared, being protected by Ye Qingchen from behind.
"Rumble!"
Zuo Jing, who had fled into the distance, was dumbstruck watching that realm.
He saw.
The once towering waves of the Black Water River were leveled, transforming into a vast plain, while those numerous powerhouses still stood in the void, a formation of thirty-five locking that realm.
Ye Qingchen still stood with his hands behind his back before that realm, standing in front of Su Moran, his expression indifferent.
"Ye Qingchen, cease your defiant resistance! Though your might is unparallel, you are only at Earth Immortal Sixth Layer. Being able to withstand our thirty-five successive strikes already makes you unrivaled, first under Celestial Immortal."
"But how long can you endure?"
Fuluo nodded, a faint smile on his face.
Upon hearing, Zuo Jing hurriedly looked over, finally noticing a trickle of blood at Ye Qingchen’s lip corner.
’He truly cannot hold on! Against so many powerhouses’ siege, while guarding Su Moran...’
Even Zuo Jing, not yet reaching Human Immortal, realized the issue at hand.
Thirty-five Half-Step Celestial Immortals’ combined power could easily kill a Celestial Immortal. No matter how strong Ye Qingchen was, he couldn’t contend with so many existences at once.
However, Ye Qingchen was utterly fearless, still sneering:
"In my life, I’ve always preferred to die standing than live kneeling! It was so at Taotian Palace, and it’s the same here today!"
"In that case, we have no choice but to utterly annihilate you!"
Fuluo’s gaze suddenly sharpened.
Instantly, the Buddhist chants resounded!
"Clang!"
At this moment.
His surging True Qi transformed into overwhelming Buddha light, condensing into a colossal Buddha’s Dharma Aspect. The turbulent force instantly suppressed the realm. Simultaneously, he clasped his palms.
Two gigantic Buddha Palms, seemingly in worship, suddenly merged towards the center.
And simultaneously.
The other powerhouses also attacked together. In merely an instant, the space of several hundred meters was densely sealed, directly enveloping Ye Qingchen and Su Moran within.
In an instant, Ye Qingchen had nowhere to escape!
