My gorgeous wife Chapter 1976 - 1944: The Terrifying Divine Skill of the Path of Reincarnation

Since embarking on his journey, Li Chen has not mastered any genuine divine abilities or acquired any significant inheritances. All that he knows has been painstakingly discovered through his own exploration.

Certainly, his present accomplishments owe a debt to the Seven Realms Tome, but his personal diligence has played an even greater role.

As for his personal skill set, the divine abilities he wield are few, repeating the same few techniques. More importantly, his prowess stems from the formidable power unleashed by his mastery of the universal laws.

However, Guangming presents a starkly different challenge.

Not only does Guangming hail from a prominent lineage, but he is also an exceptional prodigy, recognized as a brilliant figure even within the vast expanse of the Supreme Asura Realm.

His presence here is proof, as only the most distinguished individuals are invited to Penglai Celestial Island.

Consider the sheer immensity of the Supreme Asura Realm; imagine combining all one hundred and eight star continents of the current Heaven Realm just to grasp its scale.

Therefore, facing Guangming, Li Chen dared not harbor even a sliver of complacency.

Despite possessing the strength to nearly dominate peers in the cosmic expanses, he could not afford to be overconfident against Guangming, who stood at the pinnacle of the Domain Realm.

This apprehension intensified upon learning that Guangming had grasped the enigmatic Reincarnation Law!

"Brother Li, exercise caution!"

Guangming emitted a prolonged cry and, without drawing any weapons, casually extended a finger towards Li Chen.

Yet, this simple gesture sent a jolt of alarm through Li Chen's expression.

One must understand, with his current might, he wouldn't shy away from a head-on clash with an Immortal Venerable from a different major realm. But under Guangming's pointed finger, Li Chen's countenance shifted dramatically.

The reason was that he perceived Guangming's move not as a mere point, but as the descent of a terrifying world upon him.

Within this colossal world lay the endless cycle of mortal existence, the infinite wheel of Reincarnation!

He was certain that should he be plunged into this boundless mortal realm, escape would be impossible.

As long as Guangming maintained his focus, he would remain trapped, never to awaken!

Li Chen did not evade, for within the scope of that single point, there was no possibility of evasion.

The descending point represented an endless mortal world; though an illusion, it was a vast world of Reincarnation, and enveloped by such a grand world, he had no avenue for escape. Any attempt to flee would only seal his doom.

"The Five Elements prove insufficient; the Five Elements Rule is the bedrock of existence and cannot withstand such world-altering force."

"Even the Space Law is rendered useless, as the power he projects does not target this physical space, but myself. No matter how far I retreat, this unending mortal world will inevitably consume me."

"The Law of Destruction might be effective, but this is clearly just his opening gambit, while my first move would be a finishing blow, rendering this contest pointless."

In that fleeting moment, Li Chen's mind raced, yet he ultimately found no countermeasure against such an assault.

It wasn't a reflection of his weakness, but rather the sheer, unimaginable power and strangeness of that single point.

Both parties had agreed to a contest of Dao, not an all-out battle. If he were to deploy his Supreme Treasure, what would be the purpose of this exchange?

Yet, for that brief instant, he could not devise a viable solution.

After countless years of combat, this was the first time Li Chen found himself in such a dire predicament.

"The Reincarnation Law, truly profound and immeasurable." Even Li Chen had to concede the uncanny nature and immense power of this force.

Nevertheless, in that critical moment, Li Chen took action.

Its efficacy aside, he had to make an attempt—for lacking the resolve to act would render his presence meaningless.

Raising his hand, Li Chen mirrored Guangming's action, pointing a finger towards the engulfing mortal world.

"Rewind!"

The instant Li Chen's finger moved, the encroaching mortal world abruptly halted its advance. Then, two opposing forces seemed to clash in a deadlock.

After a prolonged standoff, the enveloping mortal world began to slowly retreat back towards Guangming.

Ultimately, the mortal world, resembling a genuine colossal realm, gradually dissipated before Guangming.

Witnessing this spectacle, Guangming displayed a hint of surprise, remarking, "The Law of Time?"

Li Chen drew a deep breath and then offered a smile, "Precisely."

"Brother Li, you are truly remarkable, to have comprehended such a sophisticated and intricate power as the Law of Time. It is admirable!" Guangming lauded with a smile.

"You are too generous with your praise," Li Chen replied, shaking his head. "However, Brother Guang's Reincarnation Law nearly had me trapped."

Guangming responded with a faint smile, "Then, Brother Li, observe my next move."

Li Chen's heart skipped a beat upon hearing Guangming’s declaration. While he had anticipated significant power from these geniuses, Guangming's overwhelming strength was beyond his expectations.

It had been Li Chen's first encounter with such a formidable opponent since achieving the Heavenly King Level.

Even the so-called prodigies he had faced before seemed insignificant in comparison. Despite still being in the Domain Realm, he had long dismissed others at this level as unworthy adversaries.

Today, however, he finally grasped the truth that there is always someone stronger, a higher peak to conquer.

"Brother Li, that initial strike was merely the first technique of my Reincarnation Divine Ability: Endless Mortal World. Now, I present the second move. Brother Li, please be cautious!" Guangming issued another warning.

Li Chen nodded gravely, recalibrating his mindset. He now understood the true caliber of the expert he was facing.

Guangming then swiftly brought his hands together, forming an intricate hand seal. In the very next instant, this seal expanded, engulfing Li Chen.

"Eternal Silence Path!"

This technique represented the second form of Guangming's Reincarnation Divine Ability. Its potency not only surpassed the Endless Mortal World but was also considerably more challenging to counter.

Despite his courteous demeanor, Guangming harbored a deep-seated pride.

After all, not just anyone could create a divine skill from scratch, let alone a formidable Reincarnation Divine Ability like his.

Prior to this encounter, Guangming's divine ability had been instrumental in subduing an expert of the Soul Realm, a feat far beyond what Li Chen had yet achieved.

Even before the hand seal fully materialized, it detonated directly in front of Li Chen.

A blinding radiance erupted, overwhelming Li Chen's vision.

In that moment, Li Chen's surroundings dissolved and reformed.

The picturesque scenery of Penglai Celestial Island, with its vibrant flora, and the tranquil courtyard imbued with spiritual energy vanished. He found himself transported as if into a desolate wasteland.

This place was a desolate, ancient ruin, devoid of any life. An aura of absolute stillness permeated the air, and the spiritual energy was so scarce it was almost undetectable.

Even Li Chen felt an inexplicable wave of sorrow wash over him.

It was as if the scene before him was a stark reality.

As if, in the wake of a cataclysmic battle, the world had fallen silent, with all existence erased without a trace.

He stood alone, enveloped in eternal silence.
