Chapter 1926 - 1954: Falling Behind
As for Emperor Yun Dao Venerable, he similarly retreated back dozens of meters, then swiftly halted his movement. From this, it could be seen that although Ye Feng’s combat strength was extremely powerful, compared to Emperor Yun Dao Venerable, he was still lacking somewhat. Although Ye Feng’s physical strength was not inferior to Emperor Yun Dao Venerable, in terms of overall combat power, Emperor Yun Dao Venerable was stronger.
Emperor Yun Dao Venerable’s cultivation was indeed higher than Ye Feng’s; the density and purity of his True Essence were superior, and in the comprehension of the Space Dao, Emperor Yun Dao Venerable was also stronger than Ye Feng.
Emperor Yun Dao Venerable frowned as he looked at Ye Feng. He hadn’t expected Ye Feng, a peak Proof of Dao, to battle him to such an extent. He raised his right hand towards the Void and grasped.
"Swish~~" The sound of piercing the air echoed in the Void, and the Black Dragon Holy Spear, summoned by Emperor Yun Dao Venerable, instantly tore through the earth and shot straight towards him, caught in his hand.
Meanwhile, Ye Feng increased his power to the extreme and also reached out to grasp his Blood Killing Sword from afar.
The Blood Killing Sword transformed into a blood-colored meteor, arriving in front of Ye Feng in the blink of an eye.
Ye Feng, along with Emperor Yun Dao Venerable, almost simultaneously bit their tongues’ tips, forcing out Essence Blood.
"Pfft!" Ye Feng and Emperor Yun Dao Venerable simultaneously spat out Essence Blood, spraying it onto their weapons. Instantly, their weapons emitted an intensely blazing glow, with light flowing over them.
Simultaneously, the weapons vibrated; the sound of Sword Roar and Dragon Whine echoed across the heavens and earth. Ripples arose in the surrounding space, filled with apprehensive glances from the onlookers, who felt the fierce aura exuding from the Blood Killing Sword and Black Dragon Holy Spear. This aura seemed ready to tear their bodies apart, causing them great discomfort.
The red glow of the Blood Killing Sword and the black glow of the Black Dragon Holy Spear simultaneously illuminated a thousand-mile radius of the Void.
True Essence surged like waves, one after another, and Ye Feng and Emperor Yun Dao Venerable’s auras steadfastly locked onto each other. Then, power exploded; the Blood Killing Sword and Black Dragon Holy Spear transformed into meteors.
The tremendous sound echoed in the Void, as though ready to tear everyone’s eardrums, bringing immense pain. In a flash, the two men’s attacks collided forcefully together.
"Clang~~" A crisp sound resonated through the Void, with sparks flying everywhere. Their weapons violently clashed together, creating waves in the void, shattering space. Almost simultaneously, the shockwaves from the collision of their treasures impacted Ye Feng and Emperor Yun Dao Venerable. Emperor Yun Dao Venerable did not move, while Ye Feng stepped back.
Afterward, both men’s treasures were blown away by the powerful counter-shock force, spinning in the Void.
Yet in that instant, Ye Feng and Emperor Yun Dao Venerable simultaneously controlled their treasures, forming hand seals.
Both treasures stopped spinning and launched attacks at the other, Sword Qi sweeping across Eight Desolates, Gun Element piercing the Void; massive energy surged like a tsunami, crushing towards each other, colliding fiercely.
"Boom~~" Another earth-shattering muffled sound echoed in the Void. Then, the Void shook, Gun Element shattered, Sword Qi split, and the shockwaves spread. Nevertheless, Emperor Yun Dao Venerable and Ye Feng pressed forward against each other, controlling their weapons to attack the other’s weapon. In an instant, Sword Qi danced across the skies, Gun Element enveloped the Void.
The dense attacks continuously clashed, breaking the Void down into fragments, with a series of shock sounds echoing.
In less than ten breaths of time, Ye Feng’s Blood Killing Sword and Emperor Yun Dao Venerable’s Black Dragon Holy Spear had collided over a hundred times, with each impact stirring waves that seemed to overturn the heavens and extinguish the earth.
Ye Feng crazily infused his Blood Killing Sword with his True Essence, and Emperor Yun Dao Venerable did the same.
"Buzzing~~" The sound of the sword resounded through the heavens and earth, Sword Qi soared into the sky, and the Black Dragon Holy Spear transformed like a giant Dragon over a thousand meters long, with a terrifying aura that seemed to swallow space, crashing into Ye Feng’s sword.
Their weapons reached the limit of their speed, approaching the speed of light, breaking through the Sound Barrier, and the explosion sounds continuously reverberated.
"Booming~~" Suddenly, Sword Qi and the Black Dragon clashed against each other, locking in place, with sparks flying, electric currents blocking. At that moment, neither Ye Feng nor Emperor Yun Dao Venerable could gain the upper hand. A crazed expression appeared in Emperor Yun Dao Venerable’s eyes; then he roared: "Break for me!" With the roar, True Essence flowed like an endless stream into the Black Dragon Holy Spear.
The Black Dragon Holy Spear erupted with the roar of the Divine Dragon, directly overpowering Ye Feng, causing him to continuously retreat.
Cracks appeared on Ye Feng’s Sword Qi, and he stepped back gradually, a grave expression in his eyes. Seeing his Sword Qi about to shatter, Ye Feng knew that his limit was still inferior to Emperor Yun.
"Sky Battle!" Ye Feng roared, instantly silvery light burst forth from his body, the Sky Battle Armor emerged on his body surface, emanating infinite War Intent, seemingly merging as one with Ye Feng.
Ye Feng could distinctly feel the sensation of the Sky Battle Armor fusing with his bloodline.
The infinite War Intent emanating from the Sky Battle Armor fused with his blood, merged into every cell of his body, integrated into his soul, instantly elevating Ye Feng’s momentum.
Ye Feng’s combat power and aura directly soared twofold; originally suppressed by Emperor Yun Dao Venerable, Ye Feng immediately became powerful, his Sword Qi, already cracked, instantly repaired, crushing towards Emperor Yun Dao Venerable.
Ye Feng also stopped retreating further; their attacks crashed against each other.
"Quasi-World Armor!" The crowd showed shock upon seeing Ye Feng’s Sky Battle Armor, not expecting him to possess such a supreme item.
