Chapter 684: The Eye of the Firmament Reappears

"Laughable. I am favored by the heavens. My power is inexhaustible. Why would I need to be at my peak? This battle is all I need to obliterate you!"

Tian Chang scoffed. Why would the Emperor’s Domineering Blood need to recover? He was *always* at his peak!

"Today, I will show you that the Emperor’s Domineering Blood is the strongest physique in the world, the most powerful bloodline! And I, Tian Chang, will become the eternal wielder of this Overlord Blood, stepping over your corpse to tower above all of creation!"

Tian Chang ascended into the firmament, his presence radiating an immeasurable sharpness.

To the crowd below, he looked like a supreme sovereign of the heavens, an ancient and immortal Divine Mountain intent on suppressing the entire world. He gave off an aura that was both unchallengeable and untouchable.

"Still have the strength to spout such nonsense? It seems my concern was unnecessary. I just hope your death isn’t too pathetic!"

Ye Wushuang’s gaze was calm as he looked at Tian Chang. "And let me tell you one more thing," he added. "The Emperor’s Domineering Blood is nothing but a waste of a body. The ’strongest physique’? What a joke."

"Insolent!"

Tian Chang roared, his silver hair whipping about as an endless Light of Destruction flared in his eyes. He couldn’t stand Ye Wushuang’s self-assured, condescending posture—as if defeating him was a foregone conclusion.

’But confidence alone isn’t what will decide this fight!’

"Kill!"

Tian Chang suddenly roared like a peerless War God awakening. The aura of his Overlord Blood began to boil, as vast and surging as a Divine Sea!

A suit of dark armor shimmered with a silver luster, with Holy Dao Marks coursing over its surface. Its Defense Power was immense. It had to be a suit of Holy Armor!

As a Pseudo-Saint, Tian Chang’s Blood Qi was at its absolute peak. The Overlord Blood surged through him, and his killing intent shook the world. With a single step, the firmament trembled and the Cloud Sea churned!

The crowd stared, their hearts pounding in their chests. Such immense Blood Qi left them with no doubt as to the terrifying power of the Overlord Blood.

The four Emperor’s Dominating Swords once again circled him. Each was a Holy Dao Soldier, a Fierce Weapon left behind by the first wielder of the Emperor’s Domineering Blood—the very weapons that had grievously wounded the "taboo" being Shenn Qiankun had mentioned.

"In that case, let’s fight."

Ye Wushuang’s eyes grew cold as his Dragon Blood began to boil. A sky-shattering dragon’s roar rang out!

He brought his hand from behind his back, unleashing the Heavenly Concealing Hand. He had refined this Saint-Level Combat Skill time and time again, empowering it with Great Dao Marks.

The giant, blood-red hand descended like one of the Ancient Divine Peaks, blotting out the sun and sky as if it could suppress eternity itself!

The eyes of the crowd snapped into focus. The battle was beginning.

They had been anticipating this fight for a long time. After the defeat of the wielder of the Saint’s Blood, they were even more eager to witness the clash between Ye Wushuang and Tian Chang.

Tian Chang was utterly fearless. With a piercing gaze, he commanded his four Emperor’s Dominating Swords to slash out in unison. The giant, blood-red hand was annihilated, and the resulting wave of destructive energy instantly caused a patch of the sky to collapse.

"Kill!"

Wreathed by the four Slaying Swords, Tian Chang roared and charged toward Ye Wushuang, shrouded in an overwhelming Divine Light. His Holy Armor scraped against the void, creating sparks and making him look like a speeding ball of fire.

His speed was absolutely astounding!

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

The four Fierce Swords slashed down in succession, like blades capable of splitting the heavens. A wild, domineering Sword Intent locked down the surrounding space, leaving no room for escape. The only option was to fight!

"Kill!"

Ye Wushuang soared upward to meet the assault, his Battle Intent surging to its absolute peak!

"Three Realms Slaughter!"

His body seemed to detonate, unleashing an endless, unrelenting torrent of World-Destroying Saber Auras. They tore through every inch of the void, threatening to annihilate the very heavens and earth.

The Emperor’s Dominating Swords were blasted away, scattering like four embers in every direction.

"Kill!"

Ye Wushuang took another step, and the Cloud Sea beneath him collapsed. The sheer suppressive force of his movement made every spectator’s heart tremble.

It was utterly breathtaking. Everyone watched with bated breath, their tension mounting to an unbearable degree. A battle of this magnitude was a once-in-a-lifetime spectacle!

"Excellent! Ye Wushuang, you truly haven’t disappointed me!"

Tian Chang shot skyward, his silver hair whipping around him as he roared, "Emperor’s Secret Technique! World-Slaying Dao!"

The four Emperor’s Dominating Swords merged into a single blade, unleashing the World-Slaying Slash. Sword Talismans spun and erupted as it violently collided with the Three Realms Slaughter. A turbulent wave of energy and a terrifyingly sharp force swept out in all directions.

The Cloud Sea churned as it was torn asunder, as if countless holes had been punched through the firmament itself!

The spectators retreated in unison, utterly stunned!

"They’re too strong!"

"The techniques these two are using are horrifying! They’re even more terrifying than a typical Pseudo-Saint."

This terrifying level of Combat Power had already surpassed that of a Pseudo-Saint, putting some of the older generation experts to shame.

ROAR!

Tian Chang let out a furious roar that made the crowd’s ears ring. They stared to see his body erupt with a silver Divine Light that shot toward the heavens, seeming to connect heaven and earth. His silver Blood Qi exploded outward, dyeing the world in its hue.

He pointed a single finger, and the Emperor’s Dominating Sword shot toward Ye Wushuang!

Ye Wushuang stood firm in the firmament, his eyes flashing with divine light as he activated his Dragon Blood Saint Body. A single Golden Fire Feather shot out and collided with the Emperor’s Dominating Sword, knocking it away.

BOOM!

He moved, executing the Seven Steps of the Reversed Dragon, his movements as fluid and powerful as a great serpent. Faint dragon roars echoed with each step!

Another Golden Fire Feather appeared, and Ye Wushuang plucked it from the air. He slashed with it, and a Zhuxian mark on it transformed into a streak of Sword Qi that shot toward Tian Chang.

Tian Chang immediately stomped down on the void. The Emperor’s Dominating Sword split into two blades, one for each hand, and he charged forward, slashing wildly!

SLASH!

Ye Wushuang drew another Golden Fire Feather and slashed down, clashing with the Emperor’s Dominating Sword!

As he slashed, he activated a technique that boosted his speed thirtyfold. He moved in a blur, drawing Golden Fire Feather after Golden Fire Feather and slashing down relentlessly. The Golden Flames from his attacks set the firmament ablaze.

Tian Chang’s Blood Qi raged. He fully unleashed the Holy Dao might of the Emperor’s Dominating Swords, clashing with the Golden Fire Feathers again and again. The resulting clangor seemed to tear the very firmament apart.

"You can block one, but how many more can you possibly handle?"

Ye Wushuang yelled, moving like a flickering beam of golden light. At thirty times his normal speed, he was so fast that the crowd could only perceive him as a streak of light.

All they could see besides that were the endless trails of his Fire Feathers!

Ninety-nine Golden Fire Feathers rained down in a continuous, furious barrage upon the Holy Armor. The Zhuxian Dao Marks on the feathers began to dismantle the Holy Dao Marks on the armor, and the force of the blows sent Tian Chang flying back again and again!

"Ye Wushuang, you can’t kill me!"

Tian Chang was overwhelmed and roared in fury. The feeling of being repeatedly knocked away filled him with shame!

"Destroy... Destroy Ye Wushuang!"

"Eye of the Firmament, descend!"

Tian Chang abruptly threw his head back and stared at the sky. His silver hair fanned out like a waterfall as an endless torrent of his Overlord Blood’s Blood Qi rushed into the firmament. A giant eye appeared in the sky and descended like a falling star, merging into the space between Tian Chang’s eyebrows!

"Light of Destruction!"

Instantly, a beam of the Light of Destruction shot forth, racing to envelop Ye Wushuang.

"It’s the Eye of the Firmament! Get back!"

The expressions of the distant spectators warped in horror, and they scrambled to flee. The Light of Destruction was a power from the heavens themselves; anyone touched by it would face utter annihilation. Even Pseudo-Saint Powerhouses were no exception!

"The Eye of the Firmament. We meet again."

Ye Wushuang’s expression remained unchanged. With a slight tremor, his body erupted with a wild surge of golden Blood Qi, which roiled like a sacred ocean.

"This time, I will destroy you."

He muttered after a moment, then charged directly into the Light of Destruction!

’Has he gone mad?’

Watching Ye Wushuang charge toward the Light of Destruction, the hearts of the spectators leaped into their throats.
