Chapter 1636: Chapter 1636

Everyone was stunned.

Was he just resurrected on the spot?

Not only were the cultivators of the East Desolates bewildered, but even Ye Qingqing and the others furrowed their brows deeply. None of them had expected that Ye Guan could use his sword intent to resurrect himself.

In theory, once a cultivator reached a certain level, even if their body and soul were destroyed, as long as a trace of their consciousness remained, there would be a slim chance of revival.

However, it was usually done through some kind of forbidden arts. Even so, the success rate was exceedingly low. What Ye Guan had done, however, was essentially reviving on the spot, which wasn't normal at all.

Among everyone present, only Qingqiu smiled. She knew exactly what had happened. Ye Guan had achieved this rebirth because his belief and Invincible Will had transcended his limits, breaking free from the constraints of both fleshly body and soul.

Since his fleshly body was made out of his sword intent, reshaping it using his sword intent wasn't all that unusual.

As for reconstructing his soul, his Invincible Will had surpassed his limits as well, becoming a life on its own. Moreover, his consciousness had fused with his Invincible Will. Hence, as his sword intent wasn't extinguished, his consciousness would always exist.

Even so, immediate rebirth was supposed to be impossible!

The real key was time.

At the exact moment Ye Guan was obliterated, the spacetime around him had shifted. His time and his consciousness merged, and in that instant, his consciousness no longer belonged to the past or the present.

It belonged to the future. Unless the Beast God could destroy Ye Guan's sword intent and the altered spacetime at the same time, Ye Guan could be reborn in an instant with just a single thought on his end.

It was an unorthodox move, which was why it was so shocking.

What surprised Qingqiu was that Ye Guan had come up with this method and had actually dared to try it. If he had failed, he would have truly perished, both in fleshly body and soul.

Of course, Qingqiu was there to resurrect him, but if she were to do that, Ye Guan's Dao would end. He wouldn't have been reborn as he was right now.

Ye Guan's Invincible Sword Dao had transformed. He was reborn, becoming entirely different from before. He hadn't quite broken through the final boundary yet, but he was getting very close to making that step.

When Er Ya and the others saw Ye Guan once more, they let out a sigh of relief. Little White stole a glance at Qingqiu, and then she hurriedly stuffed her treasures back into her pouch.

Mu Niannian looked at Ye Guan in the distance and smiled. "Truly unexpected."

Ye Qingqing glanced at Ye Guan and snorted coldly, saying nothing.

Even An Nanjing showed a flicker of admiration in her eyes. Her understanding wasn't as deep as Qingqiu's, but she noticed the shift in Ye Guan's consciousness and the time around him when he swung his sword earlier.

That was why she had held back and refrained from making any move. In fact, she thought that it wasn't a bad thing for Ye Guan to die once.

His grandfather had walked a similar path, facing death repeatedly. When a person was cornered and they managed to make it through, it would be like being reborn. Like a silkworm breaking through its cocoon, if it succeeds, it would find a whole new world outside. Otherwise, it would die inside.

The East Desolates cultivators went numb.

Ye Guan's resurrection had shattered their worldview.

His fleshly body and soul were destroyed, but he just resurrected on the spot as if it were a mere flesh wound? What the hell? Was this a joke?

Jun You stared at Ye Guan with a cold face. No one knew what she was thinking.

Even the Beast God glared at Ye Guan. He was also shocked. With his power, he could tell that what had happened wasn't some kind of illusion. He had indeed destroyed Ye Guan with a punch.

Yet Ye Guan stood before him, alive.

The turn of events sparked unease and a sense of danger in his heart. In the distance, Ye Guan took a deep breath and looked at the Beast God. Then, he smiled.

His resurrection was an act of desperation.

After the Beast God had summoned the power of all East Desolates' demonic beasts, Ye Guan knew very well that he stood no chance. He couldn't retreat either. Hence, he had chosen to embrace death to break his limits and gambled on reviving by fusing his will with his Dao of Time.

At that final moment, he let go of everything. He shattered his limits, allowing his Invincible Sword Intent to evolve once again.

Looking back at his old self, he noticed a shift in mental state he had never reached before. Life was often . During one's youth, one believed they were destined for greatness and that they would carve out one's own world.

As one grew older, however, one would realize that reality was far harsher than one had imagined. One would begin to suffer, doubt, struggle, and eventually, one would give in to the cruel world.

They become someone they hated, bowing their head to survive.

They would become someone who relied on others.

At some point in their life, everyone would hate who they had become.

And Ye Guan wanted to change. Though his aunts had shown up, he didn't want them to act. He knew that if they did, the cycle would just repeat. He had every right to rely on them. After all, they were his family, and his enemies were too powerful.

This time, however, he chose to shoulder it himself. He realized he couldn't keep asking his elders for a helping hand. He wanted to stand beside them and even support them one day.

He once took pride in his elders. Now, he wanted his elders to take pride in him.

The Beast God roared, "Swordsman! Show me what tricks you have left!" Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on N()velFire.net

With that, his massive right arm clenched into a fist.

Endless beast power surged into his arm, gathering at his iron-like fist. A terrifying, pure demonic beast aura spread across the land, suppressing all.

Though he didn't know how Ye Guan had resurrected, it didn't matter. He would just kill him again.

Murderous intent erupted in the Beast God's eyes. He punched at Ye Guan with even greater power than before. Beast energy and raw strength surged like mountains crashing down, ready to crush Ye Guan.

Ye Guan glanced at him coldly. "Noisy."

Then, he stepped forward. A sword intent erupted from him as he slashed at the Beast God.

The sword looked tiny compared to that monstrous punch, but the Invincible Will it carried grew more terrifying by the second. As it neared the fist, it forcibly suppressed the beast aura around it.

Sword and fist clashed, unleashing a cataclysmic shockwave that rocked the world. The Beast God's fist split open in a spray of blood. At the same time, the sword energy blasted him away, and his fleshly body cracked open as he flew away.

Expressionless, Ye Guan walked forward. With each step, a sword made out of sword intent would fly toward the Beast God.

Each sword weakened the beast energy around the Beast God, forcing him back tens of thousands of meters away. His blood sprayed out of his wounds as if he were a blood fountain.

Ye Guan advanced step by step. With each step, a sword would fly forward.

Each sword would push the Beast God farther away.

The East Desolates cultivators turned ashen. They realized the Beast God's Great Dao was being suppressed by Ye Guan's Invincible Sword Dao.

This was a Great Dao Suppression!

"Ahhh!" the Beast God roared, igniting his fleshly body. A monstrous energy erupted, but it still couldn't withstand Ye Guan's unrelenting swords. Now, his Great Dao wasn't just being suppressed. It was collapsing.

For the first time, fear appeared in the Beast God's eyes. "Impossible... You've shattered the god inside you... You're close to making that step..."

In that instant, Ye Guan vanished into a streak of sword light.

The Beast God was sent flying back. His beast power was shattered, and his Great Dao was destroyed. His entire body was sliced into multiple parts, creating a horrific and gory scene.

The East Desolates Cultivators were dumbfounded by the sight. They had never imagined that the invincible Beast God would fall at the hands of a young man.

The Beast God of the East Desolates was no more!

He had even returned to his true form and summoned the power of all demonic beasts, but he was still defeated!

None of them could accept it.

After defeating both the Beast God's Great Dao and fleshly body, Ye Guan looked at the stunned Beast God and indifferently remarked, "That was less than thirty percent of my power. And you can't handle it?"

Everyone was speechless.

Ye Guan didn't deliver the finishing blow. Instead, he turned to look at Jun You. His expression was calmer than ever as he said, "You. Come out here. Back then, you put on an act before me. Today, I want you to start acting again."
