Li Chen entered the Heaven Extinguishing Palace in pursuit of his mother. He quickly dispatched two powerful guards and confronted a mechanical powerhouse named Qing Cang, who declared his intention to kill Li Chen.

On both sides of the Divine Mountain, many strong fighters began to emerge, looking toward this battlefield.

Some wanted to attack Li Chen, but after hearing about Li Chen’s battle performance at the Outer Palace, many hesitated, unwilling to invite trouble.

Only those like Qing Cang, who had absolute confidence in themselves, dared to intercept Li Chen.

Besides Qing Cang, there were clearly other strong fighters, but upon seeing Qing Cang take action, they all stepped back, intending to let Qing Cang test Li Chen’s strength first.

After all, within the Palm Realm, even within the same realm, there’s a great difference in strength, which differs not only due to the variation in the Way of the Palm Realm but also due to numerous other factors.

Some people aren’t good at fighting, yet their impact in warfare is greater than that of their peers, such as Suan Tian.

Others, though their laws are somewhat rough and their mastery of the Way of the Palm Realm isn’t particularly intricate, nonetheless possess incredibly powerful combat strength, such as Li Changcun.

These factors are key influences on the strength of a strong fighter.

Qing Cang, having embarked on a completely different path from the Cultivation Civilization, was undoubtedly the best pathfinder.

"Target Definition: Li Chen, Hongchen Ancestor."

"Cultivation: Late Phase of the Heaven and Earth Realm."

"Law search in progress... Target possesses gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, ice, light, darkness, space..."

Although there wasn’t any expression on Qing Cang’s face, his gaze involuntarily flickered.

What kind of freak is this? How could a single lifeform possess so many laws simultaneously?

This freak is impossible to target!

"Skip search, directly calculate target threat level." Qing Cang had no choice but to bypass this lengthy step.

"Target threat calculation in progress... Dark energy and biological energy detection initiated."

"Calculation result: Target’s dark energy vastly exceeds the typical Heaven and Earth Realm threshold, biological energy approaches infinity, face-to-face host death probability, ninety-eight point seventy-two percent."

"What the...?!"

Li Chen watched Qing Cang’s face continually change and felt some curiosity.

He reckoned that this strong fighter from the Mechanical Civilization likely possessed detection abilities similar to the Eye of the Dao, and he was certain that the opponent had already gleaned something about him.

Without hesitation, Li Chen suddenly made a move.

As soon as he moved, it was a killer move.

He aimed to resolve the opponent in the shortest possible time, then rescue his mother.

"Wheel of Space-Time!"

"Wordless!"

At the same time, after casting a slash, Li Chen stepped forward swiftly towards Qing Cang. If Wu Yan’s Blade couldn’t kill the opponent, he had other responses ready.

The opponents from the Mechanical Civilization had extremely peculiar ways of fighting, and Li Chen was prepared against them.

Simultaneously, an urgent voice emanated from within Qing Cang.

"Detecting space-time law dark energy strike, core destruction potential is immense, host core operation may consequently reverse."

"Detecting destruction law dark energy strike, destructive power exceeds quality defense threshold."

"Warning, warning! Host is in extreme danger."

"Damn it!" Qing Cang’s expression changed, but at this moment, the Wheel of Space-Time had already descended.

"Activate Void Barrier Defense, initiate Advanced Concept Rewrite," Qing Cang roared.

"Void Barrier Defense is activated, Advanced Concept Rewrite successfully initiated, rewriting space-time law concept..."

At this moment, a gray-black blade light descended, striking fiercely upon that layer of illusory membrane around Qing Cang.

"Warning, Void Barrier Defense has been penetrated."

"Initiate Pseudo-Universe Defensive Barrier!"

"Pseudo-Universe Defensive Barrier successfully initiated... Warning, Pseudo-Universe Defensive Barrier breached, destruction law dark energy attack reduced by seventy-three percent."

"Boom!!!"

Violent blade light exploded before Qing Cang, his body blasted outward at that instant.

"Assess host damage level."

"Host damage level at twelve point five percent, maintenance recommended for host."

"Forget maintenance, the enemy is right here!" Qing Cang’s expression changed because Li Chen had somehow already arrived in front of him.

"Activate Biological Energy Combat Engine!"

"Biological Energy Combat Engine successfully activated, host..."

"Clang!!!"

A metallic great sword with a metal texture appeared in Qing Cang’s hand, collided heavily with Li Chen’s Red Moon.

Simultaneously, Li Chen and Qing Cang attacked each other; not only did their swords clash, but even fist and foot collisions were accompanied by dull thuds of void shockwaves, causing massive tremors across the whole space.

Li Chen threw a punch, enveloped by Triple Layer Gang Qi, directly breaking Qing Cang’s arm defense, as bursts of light and flying metal parts accompanied the punch striking Qing Cang’s chest.

"Boom!!!"

Three deafening booms echoed in the air, three white dust rings gradually spread outward.

Qing Cang had been blasted away by the punch.

This was the Blood Vortex Layering Fist, Triple Layered Power, each layer more terrifying than the last, causing Qing Cang to take a punch but as if he suffered three consecutive hits, unable to resist being blasted away.

"Warning, host damage level reaches twenty-seven percent."

Seeing the airborne Qing Cang, Li Chen realized that he was still far from defeating the opponent, so he promptly attacked again.

"Five Elements Feng Xuanxiao!!"

A terrifying storm formed in an instant, engulfing Qing Cang.

"You think I don’t dare go all out?!"

At this moment, Qing Cang finally got angry, with no intention of holding back anymore.

He had been momentarily careless just now, not exerting his full might, but he didn’t expect that within a few brief encounters, the opponent had exceeded a quarter of his damage level. Such a mistake was simply unforgivable for him.

"Activate Advanced Matter Definition!"

"Target: Gold, wood, water, fire, earth fusion series law dark energy attack, possesses extreme control and crushing ability..."

"Define it as dog crap for me!"

"Matter definition in progress... Concept rewrite in progress..."

"Target definition: Dog crap."

"Definition succeeded!"

Li Chen’s terrifying storm just formed suddenly dissipated, leaving dog crap gradually falling in the air.

Qing Cang, breathing heavily, looked at Li Chen, his gaze gradually becoming fierce.

"You’ve managed to make me angry!"

Li Chen softly said, "Since you dare block my path, not only will I make you angry, but I’ll ensure your death."

"Fine!" Qing Cang’s expressionless face twisted into a sinister smile.

"Then I’ll send you on your way first!"
