Chapter 227
Boom!
The Emperorâs Son let out a furious roar, his rage exploding like a volcanic eruption. A torrent of killing intent and fury poured out, causing the resplendent stars to shatter as the heavens quaked.
An unimaginable power surged forth. The sight of his clansmen weeping blood had driven the Emperorâs Son to lose all reason, his heart growing increasingly cold. It was as though all traces of emotion had been severed, leaving behind only endless killing intent and hatred.
âGet out!â With a thunderous shout, his overwhelming blood energy surged as he swung the giant axe in his hands.
The terrifying force suppressed the heavens and earth, and the starry sky trembled as if it would collapse under the divine power of the axe.
Shocking cracks spread across the sky, and countless stars shattered, as if the world itself was reaching its end. Fire burst in all directions, lighting up the heavens.
The giant axe sliced through the sky, and the divine light it unleashed swept across like a galaxy, hurtling toward Jiang Chen.
The unmatched ferocity was overwhelming, terrifying all living beings, as souls were torn apart and the heavens seemed on the brink of collapse. Under this strike, even the forces that had been slaughtering left and right instinctively paused.
With the constant fall of his clansmen, the Emperorâs Son had completely exploded, and the terrifying power he unleashed shook the heavens.
Yet, despite everything, Jiang Chenâs expression remained calm and unchanged, as if nothing could stir him. There was no ripple of emotion. No matter how crazed or sorrowful the Emperorâs Son became, it was meaningless to Jiang Chen.
After all, countless forces had been slaughtered by the True Dragon Clan and the Emperorâs Son. The fall of the Pure Yang Holy Land had been greatly influenced by him.
Even the downfall of the Nine Heavens Realm had his hand in it. Most importantly, in the past, the True Dragon Clan had joined forces with the Heavenly Domain to hunt him down. From that day onward, the True Dragon Clan had been on Jiang Chenâs death list!
No matter what changes occurred, the True Dragon Clan was doomed.
âNow you feel anger? Now you feel sorrow?â
âToo late!â
His cold, indifferent words spread throughout the heavens. Immediately, Jiang Chen swung his fist, his giant, iron-like fist surrounded by countless Dao patterns, as though tempered from divine gold.
His unique physique, once fully developed, made his body akin to an Emperor Weapon. The fist shot forward, crashing directly into the giant axe.
Boom!
The starry river surrounding the two of them exploded, countless stars shattered, and terrifying cracks spread across the sky. These vast cracks shocked everyone, even the Quasi-Emperors.
The power of the two combatants had far surpassed their expectations, transcending the laws of the world. They fought like the very rulers of existence.
Clang!
Just like before, the giant axe left no mark on Jiang Chen. Instead, his immense strength rippled through the axe, transmitting into the Emperorâs Sonâs body, causing his entire being to tremble.
His grip loosened as his palm tore open. At their level, this should have been impossibleâonly an unfathomable force could have caused him to let go.
Boom!
The giant axe was sent flying, and the vast energy was like a tidal wave, sweeping across the entire battlefield. At the same time, Jiang Chen closed in, his fist, glowing with silver light, smashed into the Emperorâs Sonâs face.
Bang!
The Emperorâs Sonâs head exploded, divine light cascading down, and the thick, undying material spread across the sky. In an instant, the Emperorâs Son panicked and quickly tried to pull his consciousness out of his body.
âToo late!â Jiang Chen wouldnât let this opportunity slip by. He dashed forward, his fists raining down like a storm.
The Emperorâs Son, despite his efforts, found himself powerless against the onslaught. Jiang Chenâs power, both in terms of cultivation and combat strength, far exceeded his expectations.
âIs there really such a vast gap between a Great Accomplishment Physique and the Quasi-Emperor Ninth Stage?â
The Emperorâs Son thought to himself. Though he hadnât fully succeeded, he had believed the gap between them wouldnât be so large.
But now, after facing Jiang Chen in battle, he realized just how staggering that gap truly was. He could barely withstand the pressure, finding it impossible to mount a proper defense.
Part of the problem was his lack of battle experience. Unlike other experts, the Emperorâs Son had lived a fortunate life. As the child of the True Dragon Emperor, he was born into privilege, blessed with extraordinary talent, and revered by all.
After cultivating in seclusion within the clan, he was sealed in the Divine Source until he reached a certain realm. Upon emerging, he participated in the True Dragon Clanâs grand plans and used secret methods to rapidly increase his cultivation.
As a result, the Emperorâs Son had never experienced true combat, and his lack of battle experience became apparent.
Of course, with his talent, this gap in experience could have been filled quickly, but his first true battle had been against someone like Jiang Chenâan absolute monster. Not only was his strength inferior, but he was also completely suppressed.
Meanwhile, the True Dragon World had been completely divided among the various forces. Countless True Dragons lay dead on the ground, lifeless corpses that would never rise again.
This once supreme force of the Nine Heavens Realm had been extinguished. Now, only the Emperorâs Son remained. Though he was still powerful, compared to the entire clan, this was no different from extinction.
âItâs over,â Huang Tian breathed deeply, a slight smile forming at the corner of his mouthâa smile of relief.
After years of planning, his goal had finally been realized. The True Dragon Clan had been replaced. Though the cost had been high, and the consequences would ripple far into the future, the Undying Phoenix Clan had succeeded.
At the very least, the greatest threat to their survival, the True Dragon Clan, had been eliminated.
âThis Emperorâs Son doesnât seem to be anything special,â the Pure Yang Holy Master muttered as he watched the battle unfold in the starry sky. âAfter all the effort the True Dragon Clan put into cultivating him, this is what they came up with?â
The identity of the Emperorâs Son had been revealed by the True Dragon Clan. He was the descendant of the True Dragon Emperor, who had been sealed in a Divine Source in ancient times.
It was only ten thousand years ago that he had been unsealed, but even then, he was sealed again after a brief emergence. As the hope of the True Dragon Clan, both his clan and other forces had held high expectations for him, believing that he would dominate the battlefield.
Yet, upon his reemergence, he was immediately overwhelmed in combat, unable to fight back at all. This left the Pure Yang Holy Master in shock. âIs this really all heâs got?â
âYouâre not considering who his opponent is,â the Great Qin Emperor replied with a sigh. âUnless an Emperor appears, a Great Accomplishment Physique is unbeatable.â
âSure, the Emperorâs Son is being overwhelmed, but if the Great Accomplishment Physique wasnât here, weâd probably be the ones being annihilated. Unless we use Emperorâs Will, itâs hard to imagine holding our own against him.â
âThe Quasi-Emperor Ninth Stage isnât as simple as it seems, and the Emperorâs Son is just unlucky. His first battle after emerging is against someone with a Great Accomplishment Physique.â
This wasnât just bad luckâit was like training for years to reach level ninety-eight in a game, thinking youâd become invincible, only to be faced with an opponent whoâs already at level ninety-nine and about to reach level one hundred.
Itâs only natural that the Emperorâs Son was being dominated in battle. Anything else would be abnormal.
