Chapter 1334: The Battle

The Evil Spirit Territory Lord’s furious rage pushed him to erupt with all his power, unleashing a shocking 2.3 billion Star Power.

“Now that’s the standard of a Heavenly Venerable.”

Yi Tianyun thought of the pitiful end of Heavenly Venerable Killing God. If it hadn’t been for the attack imprint of Heavenly Venerable Hao Han, his true power would’ve easily reached 3–4 billion Star Power or more. Back then, that was far above the full-force Evil Spirit Territory Lord.

The two weren’t even on the same level. But because of Hao Han’s suppression, Killing God died in a humiliating way, he never even had the chance to go all out and died with regret.

As a dignified Upper Heavenly Venerable, even if heavily injured, he still retained Mid Heavenly Venerable-level power, yet he was suppressed and killed by someone barely reaching Heavenly Venerable strength. Just thinking about it was frustrating. What a miserable death.

Now, Yi Tianyun was finally facing real Heavenly Venerable-level power, proving how massive the leap in strength was. For example, as a Level 2 God Monarch, his base power was only 13 million Star Power. Without using Crazy Mode, even if he pushed to his limit, he could only reach 70–80 million, far too big a gap.

A typical Lower Heavenly Venerable could easily unleash a billion-level combat strength. That was the difference. It’s not that Heavenly Venerables are weak, it’s that Killing God was too tragically suppressed.

“Don’t worry. I’m not going to run this time. I’ll fight you head-on. It’s a good time for me to test how much I can suppress a real Heavenly Venerable!”

Yi Tianyun grinned, his pupils gleaming with excitement. Previously, his victories came from suppressing others or sneak attacks. Now, it was a direct clash, facing a real Heavenly Venerable in a head-on battle!

A God Monarch fighting across realms against a Heavenly Venerable, no one would believe it. Most would just say he was overestimating himself, like an egg smashing into a rock.

But now, he wanted to be that overconfident fool!

“Very well! I don’t know how you’ve gained such strength, but one thing I do know, you’re going down to apologize to my master!”

The Evil Spirit Territory Lord raised his hand, unleashing the Taboo Black Curtain. With his full power stacking, layers of sealing energy blanketed the area. This was his territory, the Evil Spirit God Territory, so he could bring out its power to the fullest.

This seal was far stronger than before, this was the true power of a Heavenly Venerable Divine Treasure. The earlier version was only half its real strength.

Because it consumed so much, the Evil Spirit Territory Lord couldn’t use it freely. Only in dire situations would he unleash its full power.

Under the seal, Yi Tianyun instantly felt his power suppressed. This was the crushing force of Heavenly Venerable Power. The difference in energy tiers severely weakened him.

Thankfully, he had the Supreme God Monarch Title, which halved all suppression. Even so, his combat power was slashed by 4–5 million Star Power. Without this title, his power would’ve been almost completely neutralized.

In that case, he’d barely qualify as Heavenly Monarch-level power.

“The gap in realms is terrifying… but it can be closed!”

Yi Tianyun’s gaze turned cold as he shouted:

“LEVEL UP!”

“Ding! 50,000 compressed EXP consumed!”

“Ding! Player ‘Yi Tianyun’ has advanced to God Monarch Level 3!”

“Level up again!”

“Ding! 100,000 compressed EXP consumed!”

“Ding! Player ‘Yi Tianyun’ has advanced to God Monarch Level 4!”

His EXP was instantly drained dry, he couldn’t level up anymore. Even after slaying two powerful Heavenly Venerables and stacking multiple EXP multiplier cards, he only gained two levels. Otherwise, even a city-wide massacre wouldn’t have given him this much EXP.

The EXP from killing tons of Evil Spirit Race using the Myriad Venerable God Tower was decent, but barely enough to fill the gaps. In total, it only let him level up twice. To go further, he’d have to kill the Evil Spirit Territory Lord.

After leveling up, the pressure on him dropped rapidly. The higher the cultivation, the less effective Heavenly Venerable Power suppression became. Plus, his base stats increased, spiking his power to 15 million Star Power!

“Now explode!”

Activating Crazy Damage Mode and all other buffs, his combat power surged from 15 million all the way to 2.6 billion Star Power!

That included all his bloodlines, plus the Evil Heavenly Monarch Set bonus, bursting his strength to overpower the fully unleashed Evil Spirit Territory Lord.

“BOOM!”

A terrifying aura surged from him, violently pushing back all suppressive forces, even the Forbidden Black Curtain’s sealing power was repelled. All those sealing powers? They were nothing before him!

“W-what is this aura?!”

The Evil Spirit Territory Lord was going crazy. Despite using his full power, how was the opponent stronger? He could sense Yi Tianyun’s cultivation was just God Monarch-level, yet his burst strength surpassed him.

“That’s just how it is!”

Yi Tianyun’s eyes gleamed. His Stars Divine Spear twisted through space and vanished.

The Evil Spirit Territory Lord was startled. Yi Tianyun suddenly disappeared. Had he fled?

The next moment, a terrifying aura struck from the side. The Evil Spirit Territory Lord instinctively lashed out, only to hit nothing but air.

“Nothing there?” he muttered, confused. That was clearly the danger zone. Why was it empty?

But he still sensed the danger, right behind him!

“Is he in the void?!”

The Evil Spirit Territory Lord instantly understood, turning and smashing into the void to flush Yi Tianyun out.

“BOOM!” The void shattered under his fist. Massive power surged inward, attempting to drive Yi Tianyun out.

“The direction is correct… but that’s where I was, idiot.”

Before the words finished, a spear pierced straight through the Evil Spirit Territory Lord’s chest, pinning him in mid-air!

Yi Tianyun had disrupted the Evil Spirit Territory Lord’s senses to launch a sneak attack.

He had said it would be a fair fight, but this was fair. It was just one of his many abilities. Trying to be righteous against the Evil Spirit Territory Lord would be suicide.

After piercing him, Yi Tianyun twisted the spear, attempting to shred him to pieces, but the Evil Spirit Territory Lord, in a desperate burst of strength, grabbed the Stars Divine Spear lodged in his chest and yanked it out, retreating tens of thousands of miles in an instant.

It seemed that when pushed to the brink, he could still explode with force, unlike Heavenly Venerable Fei Te, who died before even reacting.

“Huff… huff… Void Bloodline! How can you travel through the void like that?!”

The Evil Spirit Territory Lord’s expression turned grim. The massive wound on his chest was rapidly healing, recovering at a visible pace.

But even so, the damage from that blow was far from light. The cost was significant, and from the looks of it, he was struggling. Even at full power, he couldn’t overpower Yi Tianyun’s strength, and that left him deeply shaken.

Still, his decisiveness and quick reactions surprised Yi Tianyun. He’d thought he could finish him off right there, but the Evil Spirit Territory Lord was swift and calculated. His evasive techniques weren’t bad at all.

“That’s none of your business!”

Yi Tianyun didn’t waste time talking. He charged forward again, Stars Divine Spear spinning rapidly in his hands. The Evil Spirit Territory Lord had escaped once, let’s see what tricks he had left this time.

Facing even stronger strikes, the Evil Spirit Territory Lord’s face sank.

“Looks like I have no choice but to go all out!”

He pulled out the Taboo Black Curtain and crushed it in his hand without hesitation. As it shattered, sealing power from all around surged toward him, flooding his body.

With this fearsome power pouring in, his body began to swell like an inflating balloon.

In the blink of an eye, his internal strength multiplied several times, and his combat power skyrocketed to 2.8 billion Star Power, instantly surpassing Yi Tianyun’s.

At the same time, Yi Tianyun’s attack shot forward. Just as it was about to hit, the Evil Spirit Territory Lord reached out and grabbed the Stars Divine Spear, locking it in place.

“SEAL!”

He roared, releasing terrifying sealing energy from his palm. Dense black divine runes spread over the Stars Divine Spear, burning into its surface and sealing its power.

In an instant, the spear’s power was drastically weakened, and the sealing energy surged toward Yi Tianyun’s arm, crawling over him rapidly.

“BREAK!”

Yi Tianyun jerked his arm, unleashing the Hao Han Divine Art. Vast starlight poured out and illuminated the encroaching darkness.

The two powers clashed directly, and although they canceled each other out, the Hao Han Divine Art didn’t enhance his power further, it only held the line.

“SEAL!”

The Evil Spirit Territory Lord roared again. One side dispelled while the other continued sealing, fighting to see whose force would prevail.

Originally, just the Heavenly Venerable Power alone could suppress Yi Tianyun. Now that the Evil Spirit Territory Lord had completely unleashed the Taboo Black Curtain, it meant the Heavenly Venerable Spirit Treasure was essentially being destroyed, its integrity heavily compromised.

But only this way could its full potential be released, merging with the Evil Spirit Territory Lord to create an absolute sealing force.

Under this power, Yi Tianyun’s strength was once again suppressed. Not even the Hao Han Divine Art could withstand this overwhelming force.

His expression changed as he instantly teleported ten thousand miles back. The Stars Divine Spear in his hand had turned pitch black, its power mostly sealed, making it hard to use its full potential.

“That sealing force is insane…”

Yi Tianyun’s face darkened. His body was now also covered in black sealing energy, and even breaking it would take considerable time, it couldn’t be undone easily.

The Evil Spirit Territory Lord was willing to destroy a Heavenly Venerable Spirit Treasure just to suppress him, he was clearly holding nothing back.

“What happened to fighting head-on, huh?” the Evil Spirit Territory Lord mocked, eyes gleaming with scorn. Finally, he was overpowering Yi Tianyun instead of being toyed with.

“Who ran first last time?” Yi Tianyun sneered. “When I skewered you with that spear, didn’t you retreat instantly to heal? You didn’t dare take me head-on then, did you?”

“Still mouthing off before death! I even sacrificed my Heavenly Venerable Spirit Treasure, let’s see you turn this around now!”

With a cold snort, the Evil Spirit Territory Lord charged again. Thanks to the Taboo Black Curtain, every escape route was sealed. They were now locked in a duel arena, with no way out except by winning.

He launched a relentless barrage. With Yi Tianyun’s power suppressed, he was constantly on the defensive. Blow after blow landed, and the sealing effects stacked, Yi Tianyun had no choice but to dodge and teleport repeatedly.

He was already going all out, but couldn’t catch up to the Evil Spirit Territory Lord’s boosted power. That was the difference a Heavenly Venerable Spirit Treasure made. The Evil Spirit Territory Lord had one, Yi Tianyun didn’t, so naturally, he was being suppressed.

“That Heavenly Venerable Spirit Treasure is incredible… fully unleashed, it massively amplifies his power.”

Yi Tianyun kept blocking, but he was clearly on the back foot. He could hold on for now, but to the Evil Spirit Territory Lord, it looked like he was at his limit.

“Let’s see how long you can last!”

The Evil Spirit Territory Lord’s attacks intensified. As the sealing power stacked, Yi Tianyun’s strength waned, victory seemed inevitable.

By now, Yi Tianyun was covered in black sealing energy. If this kept up, his combat power would plummet, and the gap would widen even more, he wouldn’t be able to resist.

“I can last until the Evil Spirit God Territory is wiped out.”

Yi Tianyun grinned and glanced toward the Myriad Venerable God Tower, which was still demolishing everything. Planet after planet crumbled beneath it. Who knew how many Evil Spirit Race members had died?

At this rate, even if he died, the Evil Spirit God Territory would still collapse, possibly even be annihilated.

“DAMN YOU! STOP IT!!” the Evil Spirit Territory Lord roared. His attacks sped up, but Yi Tianyun kept dodging, teleporting around to stall for more time.

“If you’ve got guts, stop running and fight me!”

After clashing for a while, the Evil Spirit Territory Lord was nearly coughing up blood. Yi Tianyun’s evasive tactics were infuriating, he just wouldn’t fall!

“If you’ve got guts, catch me! Running’s a skill too, idiot!” Yi Tianyun laughed wildly, weaving around with precision.

“Even if the Evil Spirit Realm is destroyed, I’m still going to KILL YOU! Now that you’re trapped here with me, I’ll see what tricks you have left!”

“Oh really? I don’t think so…”

Yi Tianyun turned to look at the Myriad Venerable God Tower. At this point, everything hinged on how fast the tower could destroy the realm.
