CapĆtulo 2226: Chapter 2225: Path-destroying, Reversal
Xu Zimei and The Great Emperor of the Three Blades seemed to have reached their limits.
Itās not that their power reached its peak, with their strength, they wouldnāt run out even after thousands or tens of thousands of confrontations.
Itās their attacks that have reached the pinnacle.
Continuing the fight wouldnāt determine a victor.
So every collision between the two resulted in strength multiplying.
The Earth Power within The Great Emperor of the Three Blades operated at maximum capacity.
For thousands of miles around, it seemed everything provided him with endless power.
Meanwhile, Xu Zimei exercised the Three Divine Methods to their ultimate level.
The Shaking Heaven Power truly possesses the ability to shake the heavens.
But seeing how the battle dragged on, both pushed their strength to the absolute limit.
Xu Zimei even merged a fourth Divine Method.
This Divine Method was the Heaven-reaching Trilife Gate.
Comprising the Heavenly Gate, Earth Gate, and Gate of Immortality.
Itās the technique Xu Zimei has utilized extensively in past battles.
The Heavenly Gate and Earth Gate can enhance oneās physical body and Divine Soul.
Though not as excessively as the Law of Heaven and Earth or Divine Demon Visualization Method, its strength lies in its comprehensive capability.
Especially the final Gate of Immortality.
It can block a fatal attack for the user.
This is decidedly the most crucial aspect of combat.
At this moment, above Xu Zimeiās head, the three gates of the Heaven-reaching Trilife Gate opened successively.
The entire firmament was shrouded by three majestic portals.
āRumble, rumble.ā
At this instant, Xu Zimeiās power underwent yet another elevation.
When he activated the Gate of Immortality, the Tyrant Shadow in Xu Zimeiās hand altered its trajectory.
The initial collision with The Great Emperor of the Three Blades was supposed to be a clash of blades.
Yet, Xu Zimei deliberately avoided the other blade.
Adopting a tactic of exchanging injury for injury.
One could say his blade aimed for the neck of The Great Emperor of the Three Blades.
While The Great Emperorās blade targeted Xu Zimeiās chest.
The Great Emperor of the Three Blades was somewhat taken aback.
He hadnāt expected Xu Zimei to risk his life like this.
He likely never imagined that Xu Zimei was leveraging the trait of the Gate of Immortality.
However, The Great Emperor was equally ruthless.
With the long blade descending, evasion was impossible, and he couldnāt avoid it.
The blade was a dominating blade, the technique advancing with courage unswerving.
Once the blade loses its sharpness,
Even before the battle begins, defeat is imminent, rendering the fight pointlessāas loss is inevitable.
Thus, knowing severe injury, The Great Emperor still wielded his blade.
The explosion echoed.
Like thunder from the Ninth Heaven, the two blades landed respectively on Xu Zimei and The Great Emperor of the Three Blades.
Facing extreme power, their figures flew backward.
āWho won?ā A spectator gazed, unblinking.
When explosions resonated through the firmament one after another, everyoneās focus zeroed in on Xu Zimei and the other.
As they flew backward, each shattered a part of the void.
Soon, both emerged from the void.
Xu Zimei appeared entirely unscathed.
When the Polar Blade struck him, the Gate of Immortality absorbed all the power.
The Great Emperor of the Three Blades, however, seemed utterly disheveled.
Blood covered his neck.
If not for his formidable strength, the blade might have severed his neck.
His chest appeared severely sunken.
Yet, for others a lethal attack, The Great Emperor endured.
Deeply inhaling.
This collision of blades resulted in his defeat.

Xu Zimei smiled. āHow about it, another round?ā
The Great Emperor glanced at his final blade.
The Path-destroying Blade.
His strongest strike.
Slowly drawing it, his smile was unrestrained.
He replied, āPerhaps from this battleās onset, I felt I might struggle to triumph over you.ā
āBut I wished to see how far I could reach.ā
āFor my blade never fears nor hesitates.ā
āThis is my path. Despite knowing defeat, the blade is drawn, its journey ceaseless, unto death.ā
āAlright, I respect your blade,ā Xu Zimei nodded solemnly.
Said, āI will ready myself thoroughly. This is the least respect I can offer you and your blade.ā
In truth, Xu Zimeiās Enlightenment of the Dao is far deeper than The Great Emperorās.
The Great Emperor is akin to a specialized scholar.
Beyond blades, he doesnāt concern himself with other ways.
Success with the blade, failure with the bladeāitās inaccurate, for oneās path is self-determined.
Others wonāt comprehend.
Each person walks a different road.
At this moment, The Great Emperor drew his final blade.
The Path-destroying Blade.
This blade lacked an edge.
Not forged from known materials.
A blade condensed from the Power of the Great Dao.
The blade body was a gentle grey-black, a devouring black.
The black mist resembled the edge, but the tip bore the head of a ferocious beast.
The beast roared, Xu Zimei hadnāt seen such a beast, yet the bladeās Great Dao power astonished him.
Though Comprehenders of the Dao are few.
Xu Zimei has encountered several, exposed to variant Great Dao powers.
Whether Brahman Demon Great Saint, Candle Dragon, Holy Ancestor, Immortal Lord or True Martial Great Emperor.
Heās encountered their powers.
Different paths, but the Great Daoās operational paths are uniform.
Yet The Great Emperorās Great Dao power diverged.
Not ordinary Power of the Great Dao.
But Reversing Way.
Reversing the Great Daoās power.
Suddenly Xu Zimei understood why this blade is called Path-destroying.
Now, The Great Emperor smiled.
Said, āDid you notice?ā
Xu Zimei nodded slightly.
For when the blade was unsheathed, his internal Great Dao power seemed stagnant.
Utterly immobilized.
An odd sensationāeven with retained Great Dao power, it couldnāt operate.
āThis blade reverses the Great Dao, unless you reverse it back, your Great Dao power remains unusable.ā
āThatās Path-destroying.ā
With a bang.
As The Great Emperor raised the blade overhead, vast Great Dao power unfurled.
Like a turbulent sea.
Limitless power capable of annihilating all.
While Xu Zimei, hindered in using Great Dao power, appeared at a disadvantage.
One blade split the firmament in two.
Witnessing the advancing blade, Xu Zimei didnāt evade and firmly took the blow.
However, deprived of Great Daoās support, it sent him flying.
The Great Emperor seized not giving pause.
Another blade descended.
āEternal Ancient, how will you counter this move?ā
