The next moment!
All things trembled!
Everyone's expression changed drastically, including Xia Daosheng and the 'Jinghe' Quasi-Emperor!
Behold...
As if the majesty, like an endless surging 'Great River,' began to roar and erupt!
Surging!!!
In just a few breaths, the golden figure's aura far surpassed that of a Saint King!
That majestic radiance, like the sun, was...
"This is..."
Xia Daosheng's pupils contracted violently: "Qianyang! He was never a Saint King from the beginning... but a Quasi-Emperor!!"
"Boom!"
The Quasi-Emperor pressure of the human race, vast and suppressing all things in heaven and earth, surged from Chen Jiuyang.
'Jinghe's' expression changed abruptly: "You actually stepped into the Quasi-Emperor realm... the thirty-third layer of the Immortal Platform..."
"Only half a step away from achieving an alternative path to enlightenment!!!"
"You've hidden yourself so deeply!"
He quickly said: "Fellow Daoist, the grudges from ten thousand years ago, we can sit down and resolve them!"
The next moment.
"Dong!"
Chen Jiuyang's heart let out a violent throb like an ancient great drum, his Martial Dao Furnace fully activated, immortal light surging, from the earth to the sky, that immortal light was like the splitting of heaven!
He had cultivated in seclusion for eight thousand nine hundred years, perused numerous Emperor scriptures, and had already reached the peak of the Immortal Platform, the thirty-third layer!
After activating the Martial Dao Furnace, those wisps of imperial might faded and retracted like tides, and his fist, radiant like the sun traversing the heavens, pierced through everything, descending heavily:
"My karma and grudges can only be settled by life and death!"
The reason he thought of settling these ten-thousand-year-old grudges before refining the Dao Fruit was because, after achieving enlightenment, he might have to prepare for the final chess game, and would have no time to deal with these dogs and pigs.
"First punch!"
Boom!
Vast blood and qi converged, and a punch was thrown, returning to simplicity to the extreme, pure and ferocious. Space itself could not withstand this level of power and began to crack.
In today's world, a Saint King can be the peak of an era, while the cultivation of a peak Quasi-Emperor can suppress an era, which is not an empty statement! Because Chen Jiuyang's cultivation could trigger the Great Emperor Tribulation at any time!
Tens of thousands of years ago, Emperor Fu Zhao personally stated that Chen Jiuyang could become the next Human Emperor after his demise!
Eight thousand nine hundred years of secluded cultivation, reading more than a hundred Emperor scriptures, Chen Jiuyang's enlightenment and cultivation were enough to move anyone in the world!
Since his emergence, even when killing enemies, he had never used the Martial Dao Furnace, killing them with a mere flick of his finger!
One layer of Immortal Platform, one layer of heaven!
Fist! Thrown out! Xia Daosheng! Perished!
With just one strike, this prodigy who still wished to pursue the Martial Dao Red Dust Immortal, died.
"Rumble!"
With just one strike, 'Jinghe,' also a human Quasi-Emperor, was suddenly forced backward, driven back several miles!
"Qianyang! How dare you be so presumptuous!"
'Jinghe's' brows twitched violently. After stepping into the Quasi-Emperor cultivation of the human race, he thought no one could match him in this era. Who knew there was still an anomaly like Chen Jiuyang. Anger flashed in his eyes.
As fellow human Quasi-Emperors, this 'Qianyang' directly ignored his words, which made him, a human Quasi-Emperor, particularly enraged.
Chen Jiuyang's expression was indifferent, killing intent appearing in his eyes: "Ten thousand years ago, you wanted to kill me."
"Ten thousand years later, can I not kill you?"
"The cause then, the effect today!"
Immediately, imperial texts and imperial laws began to swirl around 'Jinghe,' and he drew a great saber from the void.
"Zheng!!!"
In an instant, heaven and earth were shaken, the extremely sharp saber cry resounded through heaven and earth, as if this saber cry were about to materialize!
The moment the saber cry sounded, within a radius of fifty miles centered on 'Jinghe,' a hazy gray light appeared.
However, this was not hazy gray light, but saber energy that surpassed the limit of the naked eye, even annihilating spiritual energy and vital energy!
At this moment, everyone felt their five senses stripped away, only Chen Jiuyang, who also held a saber and possessed Quasi-Emperor cultivation, could see clearly.
This saber, like a crescent moon, was extremely ferocious. As the saber was slowly swung, it seemed as if all things were to be reduced to dust!
"Three Extremes Immortal Slaughtering Saber!"
The enraged 'Jinghe' unleashed this saber strike at this moment!
As fellow human Quasi-Emperors, his talent and foundation were no less than Chen Jiuyang's or anyone else's.
The colors of heaven and earth were dominated by that sliver of saber energy, imperceptible to ordinary people, flashing towards him!
"Dang!"
Chen Jiuyang also fiercely swung a saber in return: "Heaven's Will is Like a Saber!"
As if the cycle of heaven and earth were turning, or as if the years and time were regressing, the scenery before their eyes was all rewinding.
Shattering all buildings within a ten-mile radius.
The extremely piercing sound of metal clashing erupted the moment these two sabers met!
Before the sonic boom could even sound, terrifying, doomsday-like spatial ripples had already formed a fist-sized tremor around them, like waves in the sea!
Like angry waves surging, washing over heaven and earth, seemingly about to spread further, but being confined within a certain range.
The next moment, air shockwaves swept through, and everyone within a fifty-mile radius was affected, all blown away like scarecrows!
Those with slightly weaker cultivation perished on the spot!
This was truly the clash of the peak of martial arts in the current world!
Everyone within a hundred miles felt their bodies involuntarily tremble!
At this moment, many finally saw what the pinnacle of martial arts truly was.
Countless hearts trembled...
"Human Martial Dao Quasi-Emperors... are truly beings who can contend with Immortal Dao Immortals..."
"Who will win?"
More people were concerned about this question.
However, before they could ponder or observe, terrifying combat aftermaths once again emanated from within fifty miles outside the Wuming Palace.
"Origin Dao - All Phenomena Annihilated!"
These were characters and tones that did not belong to the Chinese language, but were characters of Chen Jiuyang's own Origin Dao. Yet, the moment the sound rang out, the name of this move appeared in the hearts of every living being.
"Buzz!"
This was a sound that surpassed the limits of human hearing. In the center of the combat zone, a golden light quietly erupted, and then the earth cracked, as terrifying as a magnitude twelve earthquake, shaking the mountains and the earth, even space itself vibrated with ripples!
"Bang!!! Bang!!! Bang!!!"
The battle between these two Quasi-Emperors was a close-quarters combat, entering a white-hot stage.
The initial distant clashes were merely probes.
Returning to simplicity, they used their Dao as their moves. The speed of their combat was faster than anyone could imagine.
In one breath, they exchanged hundreds of blows, clearing the sky for a thousand miles!
"'Qianyang'! Why must we fight to the death here and cut off our Dao paths!"
"Your Dao is not my Dao!"
The voices of the two human Quasi-Emperors transmitted and echoed from a hundred miles away.
"Then you forced me!"
"Imperial Art - Shattering Dreams of the Empty Sky!"
The next moment, a colossal and terrifying martial intent suddenly appeared in the heavens and earth.
There was great terror, as if it could not be spoken of, seen, or conceived!
This was a martial art that had integrated the Immortal Platform, laws, and origins to the extreme of the Dao!
Great terror!
As if it were to annihilate Chen Jiuyang in an instant!
