My gorgeous wife Chapter 1935: 1904: Red Dust Heavenly King (Part 9)

“We must make haste with this.”

Li Chen knew full well that the very instant he decided to deploy the Supreme Treasure, this confrontation needed a swift conclusion.

The Ancient Battle Realm was inherently treacherous, not only a gathering point for the Four Realms' most formidable combatants but also a hunting ground for the Doomsday Beast Souls, which lay in wait for opportune moments. To be found in possession of a Supreme Treasure by any of these factions would undoubtedly spell trouble.

Even within the Heaven Realm.

Despite his association with the Heavenly Realm's populace, not all the powerful entities in the heavens acted with complete selflessness; personal ambitions ran rampant.

Li Chen, for his part, never cultivated the habit of entrusting his destiny to the whims of others.

“What?!”

A sudden cessation in the relentless assault left the Purple Armored Immortal Emperor’s countenance etched with disbelief.

While he had entertained the vague notion that Li Chen might not have perished, he had never anticipated that, after enduring such a furious onslaught, the man would emerge unscathed, as if untouched.

This defied the very laws that governed the Starry Universe!

How could a cultivator at the Domain Realm withstand his devastating attacks and remain intact?

“Impossible… that’s…”

Gazing upon Li Chen, the Purple Armored Immortal Emperor’s eyes suddenly widened in recognition.

He observed the robe adorning Li Chen, which pulsed with a nine-colored luminescence.

The brilliance of this light was so pronounced that overlooking it was simply out of the question.

And it was precisely this radiant, nine-colored aura that had shielded him from all external assaults, rendering them utterly futile.

“Three Lives Everything Armor!” The Purple Armored Immortal Emperor slowly enunciated the name.

He then drew a deep breath.

At long last, he comprehended why this individual from the Domain Realm dared to confront him so boldly; finally, he understood why this Domainsman proved so stubbornly difficult to vanquish.

The Three Lives Everything Armor! He possessed one of the Nine Great Treasures of the Starry Sky!

For an immortal, an existence perpetually seeking extraordinary magical artifacts, nothing held more profound allure than the Supreme Treasures.

When juxtaposed against the overwhelming allure of the Supreme Treasure, the seemingly monstrous Domain Realm cultivator before him appeared rather insignificant.

“That Supreme Treasure… shall be mine!”

An intense luminescence erupted from the Purple Armored Immortal’s eyes; this time, he held nothing back, committing his full might to the fray!

It seemed almost absurd—an Immortal Emperor needing to exert himself to the utmost against a mere Domain Realm cultivator—yet if the opponent was armed with a Supreme Treasure, the situation was hardly surprising.

For after all… it was a Supreme Treasure!

“Tian Yi, retreat and assist me in restraining his Domain Realm power. The remainder, leave to me. I have a premonition this fellow is about to unleash his full strength,” Li Chen rapidly transmitted to Bai Tianyi.

Li Chen observed the palpable shift in the Purple Armored Immortal Emperor’s demeanor, recognizing that while a Supreme Treasure might hold less sway in the Divine, Demon, or Heaven Realms, it represented an unparalleled temptation for those within the Immortal Domain.

This was primarily because the Great Realm itself drew its might from a diverse array of treasures.

“Seven Slaying Sword!!”

With a thunderous cry from the Purple Armored Immortal Emperor, a longsword, radiating a chilling demonic Qi and an icy aura of lethal intent, materialized above him.

The moment this Slaying Sword materialized, Li Chen felt an intensely frigid sensation.

This wasn't merely a matter of temperature; it was the terrifying harbinger of death conveyed by the Slaying Sword!

The killing intent was so potent, it far surpassed the combined intensity of both Li Chen and Red Moon!

This was a genuine instrument of slaughter, responsible for countless lives extinguished!

“Initially, I was disinclined to employ this artifact. The Seven Slaying Sword, having borne witness to excessive bloodshed, is steeped in a horrifying malevolent Qi. Should it not be wielded with absolute control, it could even prove detrimental to the user. However, I can no longer afford such reservations!” The Purple Armored Immortal Emperor’s visage contorted with grim determination as he invoked the Seven Slaying Sword, channeling his immense Immortal Yuan directly into the terrifyingly lethal weapon.

Instantly, the ominous killing intent perceived by Li Chen erupted into a terrifying wave of malevolent Qi.

Even without direct proximity, the surrounding flora rapidly withered under the pervasive influence of this dreadful Qi, transforming into a blackened husk.

“What manner of artifact is this?” Li Chen could not suppress the stark change in his expression.

He could feel that even the boundless vitality emanating from the Three Lives Everything Armor was struggling to counteract this pervasive Qi.

“Cease your overthinking, young one. This phenomenon arises from the vast disparity in cultivation between yourself and that Immortal Emperor, thus limiting Old Third’s efficacy. Our Supreme Treasure, after all, remains a treasure. In the crucible of genuine combat, it is you cultivators who truly engage in the struggle,” the voice of the Primordial Heavy Water resonated.

Li Chen offered a nod, a flicker of understanding crossing his features.

Of course, there was an unvoiced sentiment that the Primordial Heavy Water chose not to articulate.

This Seven Slaying Sword was, in its own right, an artifact of extraordinary power.

The Nine Great Treasures represent supreme beings born from the cosmic expanse; in the realm of treasures, they stand unrivaled.

However, beyond these Nine Great Treasures, the boundless Starry Universe harbors numerous potent artifacts not cataloged among them.

The Seven Slaying Sword was one such item.

Though it emerged after the Seven-Star Sword, one of the Nine Great Treasures, Primordial Heavy Water sensed that the sheer destructive force of this blade nearly matched that of a true Treasure!

If the Seven-Star Sword were to truly vanish into the vastness of the Starry Universe, this weapon undoubtedly possessed the capability to vie for that esteemed position!

Naturally, this was a secret Primordial Heavy Water would keep to himself.

“Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!”

The Purple Armored Immortal Emperor unleashed his utmost power, uttering seven consecutive exclamations of “kill.”

It became apparent that his Immortal Yuan, and even a fragment of his life force, was being siphoned by the Seven Slaying Sword at this very moment, leaving streaks of frosty white in his once ink-black temples.

These seven bloodcurdling cries intensified the malevolent qi within the Slaying Sword exponentially, causing even Li Chen to visibly react.

He felt an overwhelmingly powerful homicidal intent fixated upon him, an intent that seemed determined to tear him asunder.

“Ascend!”

With a flick of his wrist, the Five Elements Dragon materialized before Li Chen. Its scorching magma breath surged towards the approaching Slaying Sword, while Li Chen strategically retreated.

“Tssla!”

Swiftly, Li Chen observed as the Slaying Sword, now brimming with immeasurable malevolent qi, effortlessly pierced through the torrent of the Power of the Five Elements, and together with the Five Elements Dragon, was instantly cleaved into dissipating fragments.

“The power of this strike…” Li Chen’s lips twitched subtly.

The Power of the Five Elements had been formulated using half of his Yuan Force, yet under the terrifying might of this Slaying Sword, it could not withstand even a single clash before being obliterated.

After cleaving through the Power of the Five Elements, the Seven Slaying Sword pivoted, and a dark sword radiance, suffused with terrifying malevolent qi, swept down towards Li Chen.
