Chapter 233: A Dao Palace Realm Clash, Jiang Chen vs. E Tianjiu
Without even a chance to shriek, helpless demonic beasts met their demise abruptly.
A multitude of corpses, either sinking to the ocean floor or floating to the surface, swiftly dotted vast expanses of the sea with their diverse remains.
Nevertheless, from the cracks in the ocean bed, an incessant stream of demonic beasts continued to gush forth. They fearlessly barreled towards the direction of the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sect, utterly disregarding their survival.
'Damn, their numbers are overwhelming!' Jiang Chen's brow furrowed deeply as his long sword sliced through the air once more.
Sword Qi emanated in countless waves with each sweep of his blade, claiming the lives of thousands, possibly tens of thousands of demonic beasts.
At the same time, Jiang Chen did not overlook his duty to monitor the information of that Dao Palace realm demon.
[Name: E Tianjiu
Realm: Late-stage Dao Palace (Middle-stage Dao Palace)
Status: Supporting character
Fate Value: 1218]
With a mere glance from his Villain's Eye, Jiang Chen gained a complete grasp of his adversary!
'E Tianjiu?'
'Following the fusion with that octopus-like demonic beast, his realm has temporarily ascended to the Late-stage Dao Palace.'
'Given his Fate Value, surpassing a thousand points... he doesn't seem like one who would fall effortlessly.'
'In Gu Ran's life history, it's probable that E Tianjiu is a formidable boss, with his demise likely succeeding those of characters like Ji Yilan.'
As Jiang Chen examined E Tianjiu's information panel, a whirlwind of conjectures began to stir within his mind.
Conversely, E Tianjiu was naturally aware of Jiang Chen, engaged as he was in the widespread massacre of the lesser demonic beasts.
'A Dao Palace realm cultivator here?'
'According to my estimations, we should still be approximately one million kilometers away from the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sect. How is it possible for a Dao Palace realm human powerhouse to surface here?'
'Additionally, he seems to have mastered the profound teachings of the Sword Dao!'
E Tianjiu, gazing at Jiang Chen who was suspended high above the sea, was swept by a wave of astonishment.
Yet, he held no fear of Jiang Chen.
He was, after all, at the Late-stage Dao Palace realm, and not a typical representative of it.
He possessed a broader array of skills and was unpredictable!
Inevitably, any cultivator of an identical realm would lose in a face-off against him!
'Since fate has led me to a Dao Palace realm human cultivator here, I shall eliminate you first to honor our fallen Transcendence realm powerhouse, Long Tianlu!'
'Once I penetrate the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sea and capture the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sect, I will retaliate against the Purple Heaven Holy Land and avenge Lord Long Tianlu!'
E Tianjiu held this resolution in his heart, yet he was ignorant that the individual before him was the exact killer of Long Tianlu.
From his perspective, the slayer of Long Tianlu was surely an expert from the Purple Heaven Holy Land.
Given that the immense battle at the Purple Heaven Holy Land had just concluded, how could a Dao Palace realm powerhouse have strayed this far?
Thus, E Tianjiu immediately categorized Jiang Chen as a native of the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sea.
How could a native of the Ageless Spirit Heavenly Sea match the might of the powerhouses hailing from the Purple Heaven Holy Land?
Once he, E Tianjiu, made his move, the opponent's defeat was assured!
And thus, the demon, formed from E Tianjiu's fusion with the octopus-like demonic beast, unleashed waves of horrifying sounds, "Human vermin, embrace your demise!"
Countless tentacles erupted from the seabed like deadly spears, targeting Jiang Chen from multifarious angles.
In a flash, Jiang Chen found himself surrounded by a barrage of incoming attacks from all sides.
Yet, he remained unfazed.
With full force, his right hand swung his long sword!
Swish!
A vast circle of sword Qi burst forth around him, severing all the incoming demon's tentacles.
However, these tentacles seemed unending.
No sooner had the first wave been cleaved, the second wave immediately followed suit, aiming to strike at Jiang Chen.
"Hmph!" Jiang Chen gave a cold snort, unleashing a torrent of sword Qi!
'Myriad Changes Everlasting Sword, Sky Splitting Star!' Fusing himself with his sword, he charged directly at E Tianjiu, through tens of thousands of ravenous tentacles!
'Hehehe!' E Tianjiu's heart echoed with a cold laugh as he abruptly launched his most potent soul attack, 'Soul Thorn!'
In the silent and invisible domain, the extremely powerful soul attack bore down on Jiang Chen.
However, the scene E Tianjiu had anticipatedJiang Chen screaming in agonydid not transpire.
Instead, what materialized were ripple-like layers on Jiang Chen's body, which entirely repelled his soul attack!
'How can this be! How can he possibly demonstrate such a potent mastery of soul attack and defense!' E Tianjiu was profoundly shocked, his face dramatically altered as he unleashed an internal scream of hysteria!
At the same time, Jiang Chen's long sword ruthlessly struck E Tianjiu's demon body.
Thud!
The sound of the blade tearing through flesh resonated, as the Purple Sun Thousand-Mile Sword punctured a sizeable hole straight through E Tianjiu's demon body.
'Nether Demon Disintegration!' Despite his terror, E Tianjiu's battle prowess remained remarkably strong.
At the pivotal moment, he activated a secret art exclusive to the Nether Demon Clan.
Suddenly, the colossal body of the octopus-like demonic beast fragmented into countless points of light, collapsing with a thunderous crash!
These points of light converged into E Tianjiu's body.
In an instant, E Tianjiu's aura surged wildly, remarkably escalating from the Late-stage Dao Palace realm directly towards the Peak-stage.
Yet, that was not the end.
E Tianjiu also deployed a self-harming secret art, sacrificing his own life essence to metamorphose into a stronger power!
In a flash, E Tianjiu's combat strength solidified at the Peak-stage Dao Palace realm.
No ordinary Late-stage Dao Palace cultivator could rival him now.
"Ha ha ha ha!" E Tianjiu laughed maniacally.
"In the face of absolute power, all tricks are futile!"
"Bold enough to compel me to use a self-harming secret art, today I'll make you endure all the torment in the world!" His face twisted with fury, his eyes were bloodshot, and his entire being was consumed with boundless resentment and lethal intent.
In his perception, he was so powerful that Jiang Chen could not possibly resist, his doom was inevitable!
Yet, at that moment, an event contrary to E Tianjiu's expectations took place!
"Peak-stage Dao Palace realm?" Jiang Chen questioned.
"I didn't expect you could momentarily unleash such formidable combat power."
"Regrettably, it's still insufficient against me!" he declared, a hint of mockery emerging at the corner of his mouth.
His aura abruptly surged, instantaneously reaching the Peak-stage Dao Palace realm, and it didn't halt there but continued to ascend!
The lethal intent on E Tianjiu's face abruptly froze, and then his eyes bulged as if on the verge of popping out!
"Wha, what!!" he stammered, disbelief evident in his voice.
He had struggled to the brink of death to temporarily reach the Peak-stage Dao Palace realm, but Jiang Chen was already far beyond that.
This was a futile battle; his sacrifice had been in vain!
Frozen in terror, E Tianjiu was completely paralyzed, shaking uncontrollably, preparing to exert every ounce of his energy to escape.
"I understand you wish to flee." However, Jiang Chen offered a faint smile, his overpowering aura directly encompassing E Tianjiu!
"But do you believe you still have a chance?" he asked, confidence radiating from his voice.
E Tianjiu wouldn't surrender his life easily.
"Move out of my way!" he bellowed and charged full force towards the fissure in the seabed!
If he could reach the underwater cave saturated with Nether Demon Spiritual Qi, he might have a shot at survival!
If Jiang Chen dared to follow, he even had faith in turning the situation around.
"I told you, you have no chance, hehe." Jiang Chen laughed coldly, his words dripping with disdain.
The Great Dao of the Wind Element wound around him, and he transformed into an afterimage, intercepting E Tianjiu's escape route.
"Perish!" With bloodshot eyes, E Tianjiu roared, a massive axe materializing directly in his hand, targeting Jiang Chen and striking down with full force!
With this axe, E Tianjiu had employed all his strength!
Nevertheless, Jiang Chen's expression remained unchanged, "A trifling ploy!" he declared.
The long sword ascended in the air, resolutely blocking the giant axe!
Boom!
In an instant, a terrifying ripple of energy erupted.
The surrounding sea water was forcefully pushed aside, crafting a colossal sphere that resembled a vacuum.
