Chapter 803: Chapter 803
"That's his third Sovereign Divine Weapon!?"
Li Pin unleashed the Cosmic Genesis Chart, trapping the Tyrant wielding the ring-shaped Divine Weapon. This stirred the other two Tyrants.
Clearly, they had anticipated the Human Race would go to great lengths to protect their trump card in the Ten Thousand Tribes Dominion War. That was likely why they hadn't sent the Coldblade Squad—the kind that could surround and kill any Tyrant. Instead, they'd chosen the Bloodblade Squad, a unit capable of taking down even an Invincible Sacred Monarch.
But despite all their precautions, the moment Li Pin revealed his third Sovereign Divine Weapon, the overwhelming aura of opulence that burst forth rattled their minds.
Only now did they realize that the target they'd barely regarded as a threat was anything but easy to kill. Taking him down without a steep cost? That was no longer an option. Doing it effortlessly? Impossible.
The two Tyrants exchanged glances, each seeing the resolute determination in the other's eyes. "Assassination Plan!"
The one who had just used the inner spirit secret art swiftly took control of the Sacred Yin-Yang Wheel, attempting to trap Li Pin.
Meanwhile, the other Tyrant unleashed a terrifying wave of energy. His figure grew from three to four meters tall to over ten meters.
The increase in size did not bring forth much Eternal Oblivion Force. This form would undoubtedly make it easier for him to unleash powers beyond his limits. In other words, to tap into the full might a Tyrant could muster.
The Tyrant's mind trembled as he took on that form. He charged forward like a savage beast toward Li Pin.
And just as he was about to close the distance, he raised his speed once again.
He unleashed power beyond his control. As the Eternal Oblivion Force disrupted the surroundings, he threw a punch toward Li Pin, who was bound by the Sacred Yin-Yang Wheel.
Li Pin had been preparing to sever the Sacred Yin-Yang Wheel with his sword. He let out a low growl at the sight. "Good!"
His battle intent surged, and he ignored the restraints of the Sacred Yin-Yang Wheel. Instead, he relied entirely on the Grand Oblivion Art to stretch his body and power. With that, he thrust his sword forward.
The Quantum Sword Intent seemed to carry the power to shatter the fabric of space and annihilate entire worlds. It collided violently with the Tyrant, in the state of Demon God Unity, charging toward Li Pin with relentless force.
The moment they collided, a shockwave erupted, spreading outward even through the core layer, where the energy was so intense that even dark points couldn't form. Everything around them was torn apart, crushed beneath the raw power.
Even the binding force of the Sacred Yin-Yang Wheel was shattered by the shockwave from the clash. The released energy rippled outward, and just as it was about to cause chaos in the core layer, it was neutralized by the overwhelming Eternal Oblivion Force.
In the heart of the direct collision, Li Pin felt the uncontrollable force of the impact shaking the Ruoxi Sword. Despite being a Sovereign Divine Weapon, the sword couldn't dissipate the overwhelming energy. The shockwave hit his somewhat dimmed, unprepared Infinite Star Abyss Body, sending him flying for thousands of meters.
After being launched through the air, Li Pin quickly spun, his Infinite Star Abyss Body flashing with countless chaotic lights that rapidly dispersed the force of the blow. At the same time, he unleashed both Galactic Starburst and the Quantum Sword Intent's matter-energy conversion simultaneously.
Just as he was about to strike with his sword, the Divine Race's Tyrant, controlling the Sacred Yin-Yang Wheel, activated it, causing a violent tremor. The energy and matter converted into Quantum Sword Intent seemed to lose their spatial orientation, and the gathering speed dramatically slowed.
A deep, suffocating roar followed, accompanied by an immense pressure rolling in.
Having already sent Li Pin flying, the Tyrant of the Divine Race charged at him again, ignoring the intense Eternal Oblivion Force surrounding him. He pressed forward with a desperate, life-or-death attitude, launching another punch.
Li Pin growled in defiance, "Come on!"
His powerful spirit and will fused with the Ruoxi Sword's power, using the sword's spacetime abilities to break through the spatial interference of the Sacred Yin-Yang Wheel. Matter and energy began to convert at a rapid pace.
With the boost of time, the usual process that took a full breath to complete was now compressed by more than half.
As the punch of this demon-god hybrid Tyrant came crashing down, Li Pin's sword followed suit.
It was yet another collision of pure force. A visible shockwave exploded out at the moment of impact, and Li Pin was sent hurtling backward like a meteor streaking across the sky, moving at an impossible speed.
Even in the high-energy environment of the core layer, he couldn't fully cancel out the inertia after flying thousands of meters.
Before Li Pin had a chance to catch his breath, a violent force tore the space ahead of him open.
The Tyrant ignored the Eternal Oblivion Force around him and let out a deafening howl. He charged forward once more like an ancient beast. His desperation, lethal intent, and violent, decisive aura had the power to rattle anyone, freezing their thoughts in place.
But Li Pin remained unaffected. He moved with even greater speed, channeling the Quantum Sword Intent.
He never once thought of using the Grand Oblivion Art to dodge. Evading would have been difficult anyway with the Sacred Yin-Yang Wheel blocking the way, but the idea simply never occurred to him.”
Right now, all of his spirit and will were focused on the Ruoxi Sword, concentrating solely on the Quantum Sword Intent formed through mass conversion.
His objective was simple: strike and counterattack.
As the saying goes, "Only the brave prevail when the path is narrow!" Official source ıs novel~fire~net
What about the Demon God Unity? What about charging recklessly, ignoring the Eternal Oblivion Force? As long as my Quantum Sword Intent can be faster, faster still...
With that cry, mass conversion, spatial distortion, and time acceleration collided, fusing into a single force. The Quantum Sword Intent then slammed mercilessly into the Tyrant charging toward him.
The impact sent Li Pin flying once more. His divine body shook violently, as through groaning under the unbearable strain.
But Li Pin held firm. Even after his Infinite Star Abyss Body was nearly shattered by the Eternal Oblivion Force, it still kept going.
This time, though, he was sent flying just a thousand meters.
He stared at the Divine Race's Tyrant, who once again threw himself into battle recklessly. His thoughts raced to the extreme. Faster! Faster! Faster!
Every direct collision between Li Pin and the Divine Race's Tyrant could be considered an all-out strike.
Li Pin was forced to react passively due to interference. As a result, each clash sent him flying backward.
But... the distance he was knocked back was steadily decreasing! It went from several thousand meters to over a thousand, then a thousand, six hundred, and three hundred!
Suddenly, just as Li Pin counterattacked with his sword, the mass, space, and time induced by the Quantum Sword Intent seemed to merge into a singular whole.
In that fleeting moment, he seemed to see the ripples of space, the traces of time under the aid of the Ruoxi Sword.
Following these ripples and traces, the strike, charged with the weight of mass conversion... surpassed time and space.
It not only broke free from the interference of the Sacred Yin-Yang Wheel but also arrived ahead of time, intercepting the Divine Race's Tyrant under the state of Demon God Unity before he could strike.
The Divine Race's Tyrant was stunned. He had sensed something was wrong but had not yet made a final decision. He watched helplessly as the Quantum Sword Intent pierced through him before his punch could land.
The Tyrant stood frozen in place.
"For the... glory of the Divine Race..."
His inner spirit wavered, as if on the verge of collapse.
Space around him shattered like a mirror.
His final words were severed and torn apart. Violent energy and the freely spreading Eternal Oblivion Force surged like a tsunami, engulfing the Tyrant.
A trace of grief flickered in the eyes of the Tyrant holding the Sacred Yin-Yang Wheel. "He's broken through."
He knew Li Pin had made another breakthrough in his swordsmanship.
Before this, Li Pin had only wielded a Sovereign Divine Weapon, and at best, he could only make the powerful sword technique function as it was meant to.
He'd even wondered if, without the Sovereign Divine Weapon, Li Pin would've been able to pull off that technique at all.
But after their recent clash, after countless collisions and intense pressure, Li Pin had unlocked his potential. His swordsmanship began to sync rapidly with the Sovereign Divine Weapon, completing its evolution.
He couldn't tell if it was the Supreme Demonic Sword that had perfected Li Pin's technique, or if it was the other way round. But one thing was clear: Li Pin had succeeded.
He'd used the Quantum Sword Intent as a foundation, surpassed it, and forged a style of swordsmanship that was uniquely his own.
What defined the standard of a Divine Emperor in the Astral World? No one could say for certain. But there were roughly three criteria:
First, possessing a Supreme Divine Weapon.
Second, understanding the intricacies of time and space.
Third, mastering every power at your disposal.
But what did it mean to truly master your powers? It's not just about unleashing your full strength without being hindered by the Eternal Oblivion Force. True mastery means that every ounce of power must be flawless.
True perfection did not come from others. It came from what you create yourself.
That was why the third criterion was crucial: craft your own secret arts to reach spiritual perfection, and develop your own battle techniques to achieve physical perfection.
With only the status of a Tyrant, this human had already made a solid step toward the peak of the Astral World, the Divine Emperor Realm.
A faint bleakness settled in the Divine Race Tyrant's gaze. "I knew it from the start... Tyrant Origin had been growing rapidly in our battles. We should have executed the Mutual Destruction Plan back then. It's a shame. Even with strict training, not everyone can carry out the Mutual Destruction Plan without hesitation when the moment comes."
He sent a message to the outside world, and then the sorrow and bitter smile faded from his face, replaced by an unprecedented calm.
His True Spirit began to burn with an endless brilliance, a radiant light piercing through the very core of the Astral World, shining freely.
He turned to face the figure emerging from the chaotic starlight, stepping through the surging power of the Eternal Oblivion Force. With a slight bow, he spoke. "Tyrant Origin, I have a strike I wish to show you. Please, join me in Eternal Oblivion."
