Whoosh.
The Young Emperor’s phantom evolved a supreme divine weapon, a radiant divine blade that sliced through the air, its powerful edge tearing everything apart.
The void couldn’t withstand it, sliced open as easily as paper, revealing a smooth cut. This was not a sacred weapon but an Emperor weapon. Even though it was just an evolved Emperor weapon, it contained tremendous power.
Its domineering edge made even Jiang Chen’s hair stand on end, as if sitting on pins and needles. It felt as though countless divine weapons were targeting him, ready to strike.
Boom.
Jiang Chen didn’t use a sacred weapon but, as usual, faced it with his fist. His silver fist streaked across the sky like a meteor descending, striking the phantom of the Emperor weapon directly.
Clang, clang, clang.
Like divine iron clashing, a crisp sound rang out. Huh? The blade’s edge was extraordinary, actually cutting a wound on Jiang Chen’s body, with blood slowly flowing.
“Interesting!” Jiang Chen showed an excited smile.
This was what he wanted. All his previous fights were truly a bit boring for him, as no one could block him. Now, the phantom of the Emperor in front of him finally put some pressure on him. This was unprecedented.
“Continue!” Jiang Chen shouted lowly, a faint silver light shining in his eyes, like stars, faint yet bright.
Whoosh.
Behind him, a vision rose. A vast starry sky unfolded, with countless stars shining within, mesmerizing and unforgettable. The next moment. Countless stars radiated divine light, transforming into countless beams rushing forward.
Boom, boom, boom.
Like the end of the world, countless stars fell from nowhere. In an instant, they filled the entire space, smashing towards the Young Emperor’s phantom.
Clang, clang, clang.
The Emperor’s phantom, emotionless, swung the long blade towards Jiang Chen. Whoosh. A streak of blade light soared, its dazzling cold light illuminating the heavens, like a galaxy, bright and containing unimaginable power.
Boom.
The two collided, producing a violent sound that shook the entire world. As if it was about to explode at any moment.
Whoosh.
Endless smoke swept in, Jiang Chen and the Young Emperor’s phantom moved simultaneously, striking at each other.
Boom, boom, boom.
The two exchanged blows dozens of times instantly, their divine abilities and attacks clearly manifesting. Like two torrents colliding, their powerful forces destroying everything. About half an hour later.
Jiang Chen gained the upper hand, punching out and directly penetrating the Young Emperor’s phantom.
“Interesting!” Jiang Chen’s face showed excitement. The previous layers had been too uninteresting for him.
One punch each, not feeling thrilled. After entering this layer, Jiang Chen felt pressure he hadn’t felt in a long time. However, this pressure wasn’t very strong, only lasting a while. The ninety-seventh layer.
This layer was even more terrifying than the last, but in the end, it still fell to Jiang Chen. Outside. As Jiang Chen’s layer climbed higher, reaching the ninety-ninth layer, he was just one step away from the hundredth layer.
“Damn, is the Primordial Holy Son about to clear the level?”
“Looking at this trend, it’s highly likely he will clear it, and have you noticed that the Primordial Holy Son’s divine weapons haven’t even been deployed!”
“It’s been many years since anyone has passed the hundredth layer! It’s been five hundred thousand years since the last clearance of the hundredth layer, precisely when that individual stepped into the Emperor Realm!”
“Those who clear the hundredth layer are basically in the Emperor Realm, except for one person who wasn’t because there were two peerless prodigies at that time, and he lost to the other!”
“By your logic, if there weren’t two exceptional prodigies in the world, wouldn’t that person also have been an Emperor?”
“Exactly, in that era, only those two were contending, and both were hailed as the unparalleled dual prodigies, suffocating their contemporaries!”
“So, does clearing the hundredth layer definitely make the Primordial Holy Son an Emperor?”
“If we go by past precedents, then the Primordial Holy Son is highly likely to become an Emperor!”
“It’s hard to say, after all, to become an Emperor, talent, strength, opportunities, and luck are all indispensable. Even though the Primordial Holy Son has the bearing of an Emperor, it’s hard to say if he can reach that in the future!”
“Whether he can reach it is uncertain, but now the Primordial Holy Son has completely left everyone else behind, and no one can compare!”
“To think Huang Qingtian could pose a threat to Jiang Chen, but it turns out he couldn’t either!”
The creatures across the entire mountain range were captivated by the scene. Almost all eyes were on Jiang Chen.
Because the strength and talent Jiang Chen has shown are too astonishing, and he is about to break the curse and record of five hundred thousand years.
In five hundred thousand years, no one has reached the hundredth layer.
Now, Jiang Chen is about to become the first person in five hundred thousand years to clear the hundredth layer.
“This Jiang Chen is truly terrifying!”
“It will be difficult for you to catch up to him!” Watching Jiang Chen’s layer climb higher, even Du Guxiong couldn’t help but sigh.
“So, you’re saying I can’t compare to him, that I can’t surpass him?” Again, Jiang Chen. Hearing this name, Du Guyun, like a hedgehog, looked at Du Guxiong with displeasure. Can’t he mention someone else?
“Yes! You really can’t compare to him!” Elder Cang might be considerate of Du Guyun’s feelings, but Du Guxiong didn’t have that pressure. In terms of identity, he’s Du Guyun’s father. In terms of strength, he’s nothing but an ant in front of him. And Du Guyun’s rise was all granted by him. So, in every aspect, Du Guxiong didn’t need to care about Du Guyun’s emotions. Because he simply didn’t need to. Nor was there a need to. If it were Moyuan, there might be some restraint.
After all, Moyuan’s status was there. As for Du Guyun? Who cares! And Du Guyun still needed him. He needed his intervention to become stronger.
However, Moyuan’s death, leading to the plan’s failure, made Du Guxiong unwilling to pretend anymore. Hearing Du Guxiong’s words, Du Guyun fell silent. He didn’t expect Du Guxiong to disregard him completely, admitting it directly. Not giving him any face.
But he couldn’t act out. After all, he needed others, temporarily unable to tear his face. If he did, he wouldn’t be able to obtain Qin Dynasty’s origin, which would affect his subsequent plans.
Besides, his Immortal Devouring Technique was also given by the other party. If the news were spread, without any backing, he would become an enemy of the world, doomed.
Although Du Guyun was proud, he understood the scope of scrutiny. The most important point, he couldn’t do anything about Du Guxiong. That’s the most crucial.
“Giving up already? That’s too spiritless!” Seeing Du Guyun falling silent, Elder Cang thought of the past.
His heart felt somewhat bleak. Initially, he said the same, but Du Guyun didn’t give him any face and was very stubborn. Causing Elder Cang helpless, once reaching this point, he would go along with Du Guyun. Just afraid that guy would explode one day mentally.
“But it’s also growth! If it were still like before, then there would be no chance at all!” Although somewhat resentful, Elder Cang was still pleased.
He was genuinely afraid Du Guyun, in a moment of hot-headedness, would directly confront Du Guxiong. That would be bad, not to say Du Guxiong might kill Du Guyun in a fit of rage, but without Du Guxiong’s help in the future, Du Guyun’s survival would be extremely difficult.
“You don’t need to compare with the Primordial Holy Son! He is a rather special existence, currently unsurpassable by anyone!”
“But you’re the only one who has a chance, as long as you devour enough origins in the future, let alone the Primordial Holy Son, even if an Emperor is reborn, they won’t be your opponent!”
“You just need to hide and keep devouring origins until you can sweep through everything before making an appearance!” Glancing at Du Guyun’s expression, Du Guxiong thought and still offered some consolation.
“And you should be glad, after all, those so-called geniuses don’t have the qualification to surpass the Primordial Holy Son, but you do!”
Just then, a cry of astonishment went up: “The Primordial Holy Son has entered the hundredth layer!” Hearing this voice, creatures within thousands of miles looked over. This was a milestone!
