My gorgeous wife Chapter 2246 - 2214: Starry Sky River of Blood (Part 7)
Previously on My gorgeous wife...
Palm Realm.
For the cultivators of the entire Starry Universe, it is a supreme term.
Because this realm represents the true pinnacle of cultivation in the Starry Universe.
A powerhouse standing at this realm can overlook all other powerhouses beneath them, no matter how strong, as long as they’re not in the Palm Realm, they’ll eventually just be overlooked.
This notion has been the case since the beginning of the Starry Universe civilization.
For a vast Great Universe, the Palm Realm remains an unattainable existence.
Unfortunately, Li Chen is not influenced by this notion.
In Li Chen’s belief, the only distinction is between enemies and friends, as long as they’re enemies, the height of the realm makes no difference.
This time he came to challenge Behemoth, Li Chen was not completely unprepared. He is not one to act impulsively; most of the time, Li Chen prefers to strategize before acting.
Regarding the challenge to Behemoth, Li Chen did not tell too many people, fearing his close ones would worry, as to most, even if Li Chen has reached an unbelievable level of strength. Even if Li Chen was once called the Strongest in the Starry Sky, challenging a Palm Realm powerhouse is pretty much akin to courting death.
Of course, Ning Wangyang does not think so.
The Nether Army, who has always considered Li Chen’s invincibility as a given, also thinks so.
"Boom!!"
The rumbling that shook the Starry Sky collapsed space, leaving a vast and dark void in the originally intact piece of Starry Sky.
This space collapse is particularly different because within the collapsed space, a hint of darkness can be vaguely seen.
It’s not the extreme darkness of the Chaotic Void but a kind of deathly gray darkness.
If other Palm Realm powerhouses were here, they would certainly gasp.
Because beyond this collapsed space is not another place nor any part of the Chaotic Void connected by a Spatial Rift.
But... outside the Universe!
For most people, the Universe is the only one; no one has ever really thought about what exists outside the Universe.
The world outside the Universe, and whether there’s other life there.
Yet this time, under Behemoth’s Palm Domain, a small crack was forcibly torn open, offering a glimpse of the world outside.
Standing in the distant Starry Sky, Li Chen slowly withdrew his gaze from the collapse. His eyes calmly turned to Behemoth.
In that strike just now, although he managed to escape, he was swept by the power of the Palm Domain.
Even under the protection of the Three Lives Everything Armor, Li Chen’s physical body collapsed dozens of times in an instant. After restructuring was complete, his face was ashen, and his Life Energy was brutally depleted by that palm by more than ninety percent.
Even Li Chen himself doesn’t know if he can recover again if his physical body is torn apart once more.
The Indestructible Body, although claimed as indestructible, has its limits too. If physical energy is consumed too much, it can’t sustain that indestructibility.
"Maximum I can restructure my body three more times." Li Chen examined his body’s condition and couldn’t help but lightly sigh internally, knowing if Behemoth seizes a chance, he wouldn’t just break Li Chen’s body three times.
In the distance, Behemoth has a huge hole in his left chest, caused by an arrow shot from the Black and White Arrow of Life and Death.
Similarly, there is a long knife mark stretching from Behemoth’s left neck to his right shoulder.
This was caused by the blade unsheathed.
Perhaps, if that blade had been raised slightly higher, it could have completely severed Behemoth’s head. Unfortunately, at the crucial moment, Behemoth still managed to evade that blade.
The speed of unsheathing is now beyond visibility, even far exceeding the speed of light, and for Behemoth’s cultivation, he only subconsciously raised his stance to avoid that fatal blade once he sensed danger, but coupled with the penetrated wound from the Black and White Arrow of Life and Death, he is not well.
"Part of the heart ripped off." Behemoth furrowed his brows, then relaxed.
Luckily the heart isn’t entirely ripped apart; just a corner being torn means it can be repaired. But if the entire heart were completely blown up, recovery would be troublesome. Even if narrowly mended, it would cost a great deal of Vital Essence, possibly directly leading the physical body to fall into a state of weakness.
In such a battle, if that situation occurs, it is almost as good as waiting to die.
After all, the one he’s dueling is the Red Dust Heavenly Sovereign, Li Chen, whom he equally regards highly!
"What a pity." Behemoth looked at Li Chen and slowly shook his head, "Didn’t expect even this couldn’t kill you."
Li Chen tugged at the corner of his mouth, "The same goes for you."
At this moment, Behemoth curiously looked at Li Chen, "Could you tell me how you managed to escape the Realm of the Palm?"
Li Chen simply smiled without responding to Behemoth.
The two are mortal enemies; why would he reveal his trump card to him?
Clearly, Behemoth also never expected Li Chen to answer his question, merely asked symbolically and did not conceal his wound, but looked at Li Chen with a carefree demeanor, "Shall we continue to decide life or death?"
Li Chen nodded, "Let’s settle life or death."
Even though they are enemies, Li Chen has to admit, Behemoth indeed bears the demeanor of a true powerhouse.
Li Chen knows he’s gravely injured, but Behemoth wouldn’t be less injured than him.
The Black and White Arrow of Life and Death is one of Li Chen’s strongest Slaughter Divine Powers.
And Unsheathed, after countless metamorphoses, has become Li Chen’s ultimate killing technique not easily wielded, almost unstoppable. Because its unsheathing and blade light are fundamentally invisible, making it unresistible.
Although that blade did not slay at a crucial spot, it still added frost upon the already heavily injured Behemoth.
The fight between the two has reached a stage where most cards are laid out.
No one would have thought Li Chen, a Soul Realm, could struggle to such a degree with a true Palm Realm powerhouse.
But judging by their expressions, clearly this outcome is not surprising to either party.
Just as Li Chen always keeps Behemoth in mind, Behemoth, too, regards Li Chen with significant importance.
"Then how should this battle conclude? This unpredictable sense of wonderment hasn’t occurred since I became Palm Realm." Behemoth reverted to his youthful form, donned in a blue robe, like a charming young man.
Li Chen nodded, "I also wish to know the outcome."
However, at this moment, a voice abruptly interjected.
"Allow me to reveal the outcome to you."
Li Chen’s brow furrowed.
A shade of clouds appeared between Behemoth’s brows as he slowly turned his head, looking towards the silhouette that abruptly appeared in the Starry Sky, his voice exceptionally cold.
"Demon Emperor!"
