Chapter 1340: Chapter 610: Take a Gamble

“His techniques can still become stronger?” Li Yuan felt somewhat incredulous upon hearing this.

The sword move the opponent had just performed definitely surpassed the realm of a top Divine Monarch, truly reaching the threshold of a God King.

Only someone like Li Yuan, whose material defense was at the Heavenly God level, could easily withstand it—and this was because the Silver Moon Divine Spear had first offset a large amount of the impact.

If he directly used the Divine Body to resist, Li Yuan’s Divine Heart would be even more severely damaged.

If some top Divine Monarchs with weak material defenses tried to withstand it, they would likely be annihilated after just a few swords.

The opponent could actually become even stronger?

But there was no time for Li Yuan to ponder as Qian Yu Divine Monarch once again attacked, his Divine Sword thrusting out again.

“Puff!” “Puff!”

Strange and mysterious sword lights suddenly appeared, the sword like light, disappearing like a shadow, simply unfathomable.

They attacked Li Yuan.

“Not good!”

“This sword technique?” Li Yuan’s face changed dramatically, finally understanding the profoundness of the opponent’s sword technique.

Fast!

So fast!

At this moment, the speed of Qian Yu Divine Monarch’s Divine Sword was multiple times faster than before, almost reaching an inconceivable level.

Li Yuan’s spear technique also changed accordingly, becoming bizarre and tricky from the turbulent and violent ‘Sky-piercing Style’.

The Divine Spear was like a spirit snake, accompanied by strands of starlight, its speed also soaring, striving to block those strands of sword light.

It was precisely the fourth style of the Illusion Heart Divine Scripture—Deceiving Shadow Style.

It was the style most adept at countering group attacks and could also be considered a defensive technique. Li Yuan had always believed that after comprehending the ‘Space World,’ he could rely on this technique to withstand any Heavenly Divine’s siege… but at this moment, Li Yuan understood he was wrong.

Terribly wrong!

“Boom!” “Boom!”

“Clang! Clang! Clang!” The Divine Sword and Divine Spear clashed lightning-fast in the void, with terrifying might.

Sword light danced!

Repeatedly breaking through the Divine Spear’s defense!

Qian Yu Divine Monarch’s sword technique was too terrifying, coupled with his God King weapon and super Divine Power, the speed he unleashed was not something Li Yuan could withstand… almost in an instant of confrontation, Li Yuan was crushed.

Wow!

A strand of sword light broke through Li Yuan’s weapon defense, the sharp sword blade slicing across Li Yuan’s chest.

Without the obstruction of the Silver Moon Divine Spear, all the might contained in Qian Yu Divine Monarch’s sword struck Li Yuan completely… The sword light pierced through the Combat Armor, causing Li Yuan’s Divine Body to tremble, showing a slight crack.

The terrifying attack at the God King level, even through the God King Combat Armor, was sufficient to damage a Heavenly God Artifact.

Dozens of cracks suddenly appeared on Li Yuan’s Divine Heart… He borrowed the force to continually retreat rapidly.

“Escape!”

“Quickly escape!” Li Yuan fought desperately, a hint of madness in his eyes: “If we continue this fight, at most a hundred swords, my Divine Heart will collapse and perish.”

Li Yuan was getting closer to the Transmission Array.

But Qian Yu Divine Monarch’s speed was faster.

Wow! Another strand of sword light bypassed the Silver Moon Divine Spear’s obstruction, attacking the waist of Li Yuan, again causing a noticeable change in Li Yuan’s aura.

“Haha, it’s indeed effective.” Qian Yu Divine Monarch smiled.

He, destined to become a God King as a Ten-Star Meridian… had comprehended the five directions of space and could potentially grasp the complete Space Law at any time.

Regarding Law Comprehension, he was slightly more advanced than Ming Fang Divine Monarch and Zhu You Divine Monarch.

He didn’t comprehend as many God King Level Techniques as Ming Fang Divine Monarch, purely because he hadn’t cultivated for long enough… After all, both comprehending laws and studying secret techniques require time.

But even so, he had already comprehended five God King techniques.

‘Absolute Darkness,’ was his strongest material attack technique!

But the ‘Shadow Disappearance’ now being performed was his fastest sword technique, pursuing extreme speed, and its might was significantly weaker than ‘Absolute Darkness’.

Facing different enemies requires different techniques.

If facing Ming Fang Divine Monarch, with Ming Fang Divine Monarch’s methods, even if Qian Yu Divine Monarch performs ‘Shadow Disappearance,’ it would be perfectly defended… then it would be better to perform ‘Absolute Darkness.’

But against Li Yuan?

“I’m not mistaken, Heart Origin Divine Monarch, your Law Comprehension is actually not high, perhaps not even reaching the Heavenly God level.” Qian Yu Divine Monarch transmitted telepathically with a laugh.

Qian Yu Divine Monarch performed ‘Absolute Darkness,’ and Li Yuan could barely keep up with the speed, while Silver Moon Divine could consistently block the opponent’s Divine Sword.

But facing ‘Shadow Disappearance,’ Li Yuan’s spear technique finally revealed its inadequacy—no matter how hard Li Yuan tried, he couldn’t completely defend.

Repeatedly, Qian Yu Divine Monarch broke through the spear technique’s defense, causing the Divine Sword to directly strike the Divine Body.

Thus, the damage suffered by Li Yuan’s Divine Body and Divine Heart naturally surged.

…

In the Heart Dream Divine Realm, within that Special Divine Hall, numerous Divine Monarchs of the Chaos Divine Court were watching the light screen projection in bated breath.

Everyone was shocked by the power unleashed by Qian Yu Divine Monarch.

“Little Junior Brother.”

“Do you have the confidence to reach the Transmission Array?” Dong Mang God King’s voice suddenly rang in Li Yuan’s incarnation’s mind.

“I do.” Li Yuan quickly responded.

“This Qian Yu Divine Monarch, there is a certain probability that he is specifically targeting you through the Causality Secret Treasure, although it can’t be completely confirmed yet.” Dong Mang God King transmitted his voice: “It’s just that your chances of encountering him are extremely low, but after entering Beichen Star for just over a year, you encountered him, that’s why I speculate.”

“Causality Secret Treasure? Isn’t Beichen Star isolated from causality?” Li Yuan was shocked.

“The rules of Beichen Star were merely formed by the formation set by Beihai Divine Emperor, but even the Beichen Divine Emperor has fallen. Besides, Beichen Star’s workings have encountered many issues… Naturally, there are ways to circumvent it, though the price is extremely high.” Dong Mang God King said, “Therefore, even if you escape into the transmission array, relying on it to flee, it remains very dangerous.”

“Unless… you directly escape from Beichen Star, outside where Black Stone God King receives you, you naturally remain unharmed.” Dong Mang God King transmitted his voice.

“Directly escape from Beichen Star?” A hint of unwillingness flashed in Li Yuan’s eyes.

His arrival at Beichen Star, though somewhat fruitful, fell far short of his expectations, naturally making him reluctant to leave.

“If you are unwilling to escape from Beichen Star, then gamble, gamble that he has no causality sensing with you.” Dong Mang God King transmitted his voice, “If you lose the gamble, this incarnation of yours will fall, and the treasure will be lost. You must choose yourself.”

“Gamble?”

“Then I’ll take a gamble.” Li Yuan instantly made his decision; venturing and adventuring outside, where is there no danger?

After all, he hadn’t brought the Source Seed, so even if the incarnation dies in battle, the loss is still barely acceptable.

Moreover, Li Yuan was willing to gamble because he had reasons for it. Qian Yu Divine Monarch hadn’t had any past grievances with him, nor were they from the same Cosmic Realm; it should be difficult to get entangled.

Dong Mang God King nodded and said no more.

…

In the boundless land, two towering figures of ten thousand feet were frantically battling.

To be precise, Li Yuan was desperately fleeing for his life.

Qian Yu Divine Monarch was wielding a Divine Sword, ferocious beyond compare, the Divine Sword alternating between black and white, indeed resembling dreamlike light and shadow, occasionally like black thunder… Even though Li Yuan fought desperately to resist, he repeatedly got pierced.

Boom~

Li Yuan’s Divine Body cracks were worsening, with copious amounts of Divine Power frantically erupting from the Divine Heart World, attempting repairs… But for the first time, the repair speed of the Divine Body couldn’t catch up with the damage.

Injuring the Divine Body not only caused Material Defense to drop again, but also affected Divine Body’s operations, power bursts, and other aspects, further diminishing his ability to resist.

The injury to the Divine Body was secondary.

The most critical was the damage to the Divine Heart… The speed of cracks continued to increase, and the previously flawless Divine Heart became, in mere seconds, like a ceramic covered with countless cracks, about to shatter.

Li Yuan had endured 46 sword strikes!

This was practically a nightmare journey.

Swish!

Li Yuan finally rushed into the transmission array range. As he darted, he suddenly turned back, glaring fiercely at Qian Yu Divine Monarch.

In the next moment.

Hiss!

The expansive transmission array suddenly lit up, with an invisible spatial fluctuation sweeping past, and Li Yuan vanished without a trace.

Leaving only Qian Yu Divine Monarch behind.

“This Heart Origin Divine Monarch.”

“Even if my ignorant defense is likely only slightly stronger than his, a Nine Stars Vein Celestial God can cultivate to this level?” Qian Yu Divine Monarch’s eyes glinted with killing intent. “Even after deploying ‘Shadow Disappearance’, for such a long time, he still wasn’t killed?”

The more it was like this, the heavier Qian Yu Divine Monarch’s killing intent became.

Such a peerless genius, having only cultivated for a few hundred years? Destined to become a God King in the future… Faced with such enmity today, if not truly killed, peace would be elusive for millions of years thereafter.

“Does he think using the transmission array, he can escape?”

“Naive!” Qian Yu Divine Monarch sneered.

Under normal circumstances, after two great powers battled on Beichen Star, one party escaping through the transmission array would indeed be hard to track for the other… After all, there were a staggering 9999 transmission array numbers!!

However, Qian Yu Divine Monarch could sense the general position of Li Yuan through causality.

“Transmission array.”

“So, my position is here, this transmission array is number 612?” Qian Yu Divine Monarch was witnessing the transmission array for the first time, and instantly understood its full utility through a single thought.

Understanding his position.

Combining with the complete map information he had obtained about Beichen Star, Li Yuan’s general position of causality, and causality distance, Qian Yu Divine Monarch concluded in a second – Li Yuan’s transmission destination should be transmission array number 8347.

“Escaped quite far.”

“Nearly eluding to the other side of Beichen Star.” Qian Yu Divine Monarch whispered to himself. “It’s a pity, I too can use the transmission array.”

Hu!

This transmission array flashed a glimmer of light again, making Qian Yu Divine Monarch vanish from the scene as well.

…

The other side of Beichen Star.

Swish!

Li Yuan appeared out of thin air inside a transmission array, the place was incredibly quiet, everything silent.

“Both the Divine Body and Divine Heart are damaged so severely?” Li Yuan sensed the injuries within him, sighing silently.
