The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor Chapter 1822 - 1819: The Great Saint Is Hard to Kill
Previously on The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor...
Sss—
A faint sound was heard.
With a violent tearing, Zhuo Rou was ripped in half, her blood, innards, and intestines instantly scattering across the Ancient Battlefield!
The entire crowd erupted in chaos.
No one had anticipated such a dramatic turn in the ongoing battle.
Chu Old Demon and the others were particularly astonished.
They were contemporaries of Zhuo Rou and were well aware of her formidable power.
She was a true Great Saint!
Even with the current Heavenly Dao Suppression, she could still unleash the might of an Invincible Great Sage; how could she not put up any resistance?
"That individual is incredibly mysterious; could the cultivation technique he has mastered be the long-lost Void Technique?"
Chu Old Demon gazed at Ye Xuan, positioned in the center of the battlefield, and murmured to himself.
Similarly, other powerful figures were contemplating this very question.
After all, the sheer shock Ye Xuan had inflicted upon them was truly overwhelming.
In mere moments, after brutally tearing Zhuo Rou asunder, Ye Xuan continued his assault. Endless Void Power surged from his palm, striking Zhuo Rou's remains.
Boom!
The Void Power detonated, pulverizing Zhuo Rou's corpse into fragments that dispersed into the void.
Even with Zhuo Rou's immense capabilities, it would require a significant amount of time to reconstruct her body.
Of course, Zhuo Rou possessed an alternative method: the ability to forge a new physical form.
Although Zhuo Rou's body had been shattered, her potent Divine Soul remained intact, and her Life Palace persisted.
Only if her Life Palace were obliterated and her Divine Soul annihilated would she be utterly destroyed.
Had Ye Xuan's true body been present, a simple exertion of the Emperor Soul could have instantly ended Zhuo Rou.
However, Ye Xuan's true body was still situated in the land of eternal autumn; this was merely a Myriad Forms Body. While it possessed a Void Immortal Body and Origin Power, it could never compare to the true body's Emperor Soul concerning the Divine Soul.
To instantly annihilate Zhuo Rou's physical form was already a remarkable feat.
Ye Xuan intended to seize the moment and shatter Zhuo Rou’s Life Palace, but she reacted with swiftness, pulling away.
Simultaneously, Zhuo Rou was enveloped by the Power of World, rapidly assembling a brand-new body.
For Zhuo Rou, the destruction of her physical manifestation merely consumed a portion of her Power of World.
As an invincible entity at the Great Saint Realm, the world Zhuo Rou had personally created was already stable, providing a continuous and inexhaustible source of power.
For Ye Xuan to vanquish Zhuo Rou would not be a simple undertaking.
"Isn't this excessively abnormal? She's still alive?"
On the Emperor Immortal Sect's side, numerous young disciples witnessed the spectacle with wide, incredulous eyes.
"Even if Zhuo Rou is at the foundational stage of the Great Saint Realm, if she were not a Great Saint but an Invincible Great Sage, she wouldn't perish so easily. You'll comprehend this when you break through to the Saint Realm and ascend to immortality."
Within the Emperor Immortal Sect, powerful figures residing in the Great Sage Realm offered explanations of these intricacies to the younger disciples.
Once a cultivator attained the Immortal Realm, it was said they could endure even if the heavens themselves crumbled. Though an exaggeration, it underscored the immense difficulty in destroying a cultivator after they reached the Immortal Realm.
Even when peerless powerhouses of the same realm clashed, instances of death were exceedingly rare.
This typically required the opponent's power to transcend immortality, reaching realms like the Supreme or Great Venerate, enabling them to obliterate the adversary through a superior Divine Soul.
Currently, Zhuo Rou was at the Great Saint Realm's foundation, displaying the power of an Invincible Great Sage. Unless a Quasi-Emperor Realm entity descended, Zhuo Rou’s demise was improbable.
No.
Under the Heavenly Dao Suppression, no one possessed the capability to kill Zhuo Rou.
The reason was that everyone's power was subjected to suppression.
The sole reason Ye Xuan's Emperor Soul remained unaffected stemmed from its unprecedented attainment in the past.
The Great Emperor was invincible.
To a certain extent, the Heavenly Dao could no longer exert control over Ye Xuan’s Emperor Soul.
This was the very reason Ye Xuan could move with such freedom amidst the Heavenly Dao Suppression.
"What a shame..."
Ye Xuan observed Zhuo Rou, who had already reconstituted herself, and inwardly lamented the missed opportunity.
In that precise moment, he had genuinely desired to shatter Zhuo Rou’s world. However, she had reacted with exceptional speed, instantly withdrawing her Life Palace and abandoning her physical form, thereby thwarting Ye Xuan’s plan.
Ye Xuan flexed his hand, his expression placid.
Despite failing to achieve instant annihilation of Zhuo Rou, he felt no discouragement.
After all, the confrontation today served merely as a trial run for this Myriad Forms Body.
If one strike was insufficient.
Then two strikes would suffice!
Ye Xuan’s figure traversed the sky like a streak of lightning.
Miles away, he arrived in an instant.
Boom!
Raising a fist, he struck directly forward.
This time, Zhuo Rou was prepared. She conjured numerous ancient, colossal mountains ahead using the endless Power of World, effectively blocking Ye Xuan's path.
Visible Dao Patterns adorned those ancient, towering mountains, rapidly weaving together to construct a formidable Array.
Zhuo Rou, a powerhouse in the Great Saint Realm, also possessed profound expertise in Spirit Array Skills.
In mere moments, she conjured a multitude of interconnected Great Formations to impede Ye Xuan's advance.
However, Ye Xuan, now unleashed, charged forward with unyielding courage.
Let there be a thousand troops against me, I shall face them alone!
Boom!
The ancient mountains crumbled relentlessly.
The Dao Patterns above attempted to reform and mend the breaches, but they were utterly powerless against the destructive force.
Hundreds of ancient mountains were annihilated in an instant by Ye Xuan's powerful punch.
The might of his fist was peerless, coalescing into a colossal, shadowy fist.
Simultaneously, ethereal Chaos Mist enveloped the black fist, accompanied by the terrifying Spirit of the Void God Realm, its fierce visage occasionally glimpsing through the miasma.
This was the Chaos Ghost Fang, one of Ye Xuan's most potent Spirits of the Void God Realm!
Although this Myriad Forms Body was not his true form, it could still wield the Spirits of the Void God Realm without even needing to unseal the Divine Gate.
This was its most terrifying aspect.
The Chaos Ghost Fang let out a guttural growl, channeling its immense power, alongside the fist, towards Zhuo Rou.
Zhuo Rou opened her palm, her fingers spreading wide like a celestial curtain, forcefully countering the fist's might. A grave expression began to dawn in her beautiful eyes.
She had to concede that she had indeed underestimated Ye Xuan.
His strength was undeniably paramount among the younger generation!
His ferocity defied all reason.
However, she had already mastered his current offensive techniques!
"Six Yin Eight Extremes."
Zhuo Rou uttered four words, activating the Great Emperor Immortal Skill. Overwhelming power surged like tidal waves, extending in all directions and crashing towards Ye Xuan.
Buzz buzz buzz————
Following this, six menacing shadows materialized around Ye Xuan, from which spectral chains snaked out, instantly ensnaring him.
Crack crack crack crack————
From eight distinct positions, colossal hands emerged, forming different Dharma Seals.
Ye Xuan's perception was instantly and completely obscured.
At this precise moment, Zhuo Rou lowered her right hand, calmly gazing at Ye Xuan, and softly declared, "The show is over."
