Heaven-Surpassing Divine Emperor

"Stop playing dead!"

Jiang Chen stood firmly on the ground, calmly watching the billowing dust. The corners of his mouth lifted into a faint, mocking smile.

BOOM—

The dust cloud suddenly exploded.

A figure shot out from within, scattering the dust and appearing before Jiang Chen.

Wangg Tianyi stared at Jiang Chen with a grim expression. With a single shudder, he shook all the dust from his body.

He twisted his neck, producing a series of cracking sounds. He shifted his jaw from side to side, making it pop again. His icy gaze fell upon Jiang Chen. "No wonder Li Yunlong fell to you. You truly live up to your name as a genius with the Three Lives Sword Intent!"

Suddenly, Wangg Tianyi paused. His tone shifted abruptly, like a gentle spring breeze turning into a biting winter wind. "Unfortunately, you overstepped your bounds and provoked my Celestial Alliance. To borrow a phrase you just used, anyone who dares to challenge the might of the Celestial Alliance will meet only one end—death!"

The moment his voice fell, a pair of cyan wings abruptly appeared behind Wangg Tianyi.

The Cyan Simurgh Phoenix Feather!

This was Wangg Tianyi’s Martial Soul, a Profound Tier Ninth Grade, the Cyan Simurgh Phoenix Feather!

This Cyan Simurgh Phoenix Feather Martial Soul was very different from ordinary Martial Souls. The moment it appeared, it seemed to grow right out of Wangg Tianyi’s body.

It caused Wangg Tianyi’s speed to skyrocket and could even amplify the True Martial Dao he possessed!

"My True Meaning of Wind Martial Arts has already reached Tier One Advanced. With the amplification from my Cyan Simurgh Phoenix Feather, its power is comparable to a Tier Two Advanced True Meaning of Wind Martial Arts."

Wangg Tianyi’s voice was calm and cold. The wings on his back vibrated, and his figure rose into the air. He resembled a Celestial Being descending from the heavens, looking down upon the masses. "Jiang Chen, so what if you’ve mastered three types of True Martial Dao? My Tier Two High Level True Meaning of Wind Martial Arts is enough to nullify most of your advantage in that regard, and my cultivation is a full three Small Realms ahead of yours."

"This is an insurmountable chasm, like the difference between the heavens and the earth. Before me, you will die without a doubt!"

Wangg Tianyi enunciated every word.

SWISH!

With a slight movement of his cyan wings, streaks of cyan Gale wrapped around Wangg Tianyi’s body, transforming into ferocious Wind Dragons.

The Wind Dragons were as thick as barrels. Their bodies were covered in Dragon Scales formed from the gales, which glinted coldly like iron. They resembled cyan metal shields, shimmering with an eerie light.

ROAR—

The Wind Dragons twisted their bodies violently. They trembled, so lifelike they seemed like real Wind Dragons descending upon the world.

A full five Wind Dragons coiled around Wangg Tianyi.

Wangg Tianyi’s face was frigid. He spread his fingers, forming a hand that seemed to blot out the sky, and thrust it toward Jiang Chen. "Five Dragons Demon-Slaying Palm!"

ROAR!

The five long dragons wrapped around him threw their heads back and roared, letting out a deafening bellow.

The five cyan Wind Dragons shot out at maximum speed.

Each Wind Dragon contained infinite power. If they exploded, even an expert at the Heavenly Destiny Realm would be blown to pieces.

Jiang Chen’s eyes turned cold. He licked his lips with his scarlet tongue and sneered, "My Divine Demon Tyrant Body just advanced to the Third Stage Realm, and I haven’t had a chance to test its power yet. Today, I’ll use you for some practice!"

The Divine Demon Tyrant Body was a supreme Body Refining Divine Technique!

With the help of a Second Revolution Tyrant Essence Pill, Jiang Chen had already advanced to the Third Stage Realm, and his physical body was now comparable to an Earth-tier Profound Weapon.

His strength, speed, and all other physical aspects had been tremendously enhanced.

As he knocked his fists together, a dark golden light flowed over his arms, making him look as if he were cast from molten gold.

His feet stomped on the ground, creating a series of deafening THUDS.

He leaped into the air and smashed his fists toward the five Wind Dragons.

BANG—

His first punch struck the head of one of the Wind Dragons.

The Wind Dragon’s entire head exploded. With unstoppable momentum, Jiang Chen kicked off the air, his speed instantly surging. He shot forward like a dark golden bolt of lightning, the overwhelming power of his punch completely annihilating the Wind Dragon.

The second and third Wind Dragons roared, opening their vicious maws. Their sharp fangs, filled with a gale-like Destructive Power, lunged to bite Jiang Chen.

These were no ordinary fangs.

Once they bit down, the storm within the fangs would erupt instantly, seeking to perish along with the target.

Jiang Chen’s eyes were glacial. He spun his body sharply in mid-air, rotating like a top. His physical body, as strong as an Earth-tier Profound Weapon, became like a humanoid Combat Weapon, and his rotation shattered the fangs of the two Wind Dragons.

ROAR—

As if they were sentient, the two Wind Dragons shrieked in pain and tried to retreat.

"Where do you think you’re going!"

Jiang Chen’s gaze turned cold. His spinning figure came to an abrupt halt as he reached out and seized the two Wind Dragons by their necks. With a sudden exertion of force, he crushed them both into nothingness.

"Be destroyed—"

Pausing in mid-air, the veins on Jiang Chen’s arms bulged as a dark golden light swirled around them.

He unleashed a flurry of punches.

Countless fist shadows, numbering in the hundreds and thousands, materialized and merged into a torrential wave of dark gold that rushed forward. It was like a meteor shower descending from the heavens as the fist shadows rained down one after another, relentlessly pounding the remaining two Wind Dragons.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The two Wind Dragons trembled violently, then disintegrated into nothingness!

Jiang Chen’s gaze grew cold as he glanced at Wangg Tianyi. A corner of his mouth lifted in a sneer. "Is this the power you were talking about? It’s nothing special."

"Don’t get cocky! Die!"

Wangg Tianyi’s face turned ashen. Remembering his earlier boasts, his face burned as if he’d been slapped several times. He slammed his hands together.

The pair of cyan Cyan Simurgh Phoenix Feathers on his back shuddered and flapped violently.

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!—

From the Cyan Simurgh Phoenix Feathers, countless feather-shaped cyan blades erupted.

Each blade was condensed from True Essence. Empowered by the True Meaning of Wind Martial Arts, they were faster and even sharper.

It was as if tens of thousands of Profound-tier Profound Weapons were shooting toward him.

The very air trembled.

This attack was too terrifying!

Jiang Chen’s brows twitched. His Ten Thousand Laws Golden Pupil pulsed with a cyan-gold light, and in his eyes, the flight paths of the dense swarm of bladed feathers became perfectly clear.

He shot upward, his entire body moving like a fish in the ocean.

He became incredibly agile, leaving a trail of splendid afterimages behind him, preventing the thousands of bladed feathers from getting anywhere near him.

"H-How is this possible?" Wangg Tianyi’s face was filled with horror.

Jiang Chen was so fast that his eyes could barely keep up!

’I am a dignified Inner Sect True Inheritor Disciple! How can I be pushed this far by a mere Outer Sect Core Disciple?’ 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

The killing intent in his eyes grew even colder. "It seems you do have some skill. You are worthy of witnessing my ultimate attack—the Wind-Sundering Celestial Slayer Blade!"

The left Cyan Simurgh Phoenix Feather flapped forcefully. With a loud BOOM, a ball of cyan storm shot out.

Immediately after, the right Cyan Simurgh Phoenix Feather also shuddered in the air.

Another cyan storm howled forth.

The two storms merged in front of him, forming a massive maelstrom a hundred zhang in diameter. The storm spun wildly before coming to a sudden stop.

CRACK—

A sharp crack silenced the entire area.

The raging storm then contracted violently, converging toward its center. A one-hundred-zhang-long Wind Battle Saber appeared in the void. The entire Battle Blade was condensed from True Essence and empowered by a Tier Two High Level True Meaning of Wind Martial Arts, making its power absolutely terrifying.

"Jiang Chen, you’re dead!"

Wangg Tianyi’s face twisted into a savage sneer. He clasped his hands together and raised them high above his head, and the hundred-zhang Battle Blade also hovered high in the sky.

Then, he slammed his hands down, bringing the blade chopping toward Jiang Chen with an incomparably fearsome Destruction Power.

The slash was too fast!

So fast it was impossible to defend against!

Jiang Chen stood suspended in the air, surrounded by howling winds. There was no escape; he could only face the attack head-on. A piercing light flickered in his eyes as he sneered, "You want to kill me? You’re not worthy! Block this!"

He thrust his hands upward, and they began to glow with a dark golden light.

He was actually going to block this terrifying slash with his bare hands!

Wangg Tianyi was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing. "Idiot! Not even a Heavenly Destiny Realm expert wearing Profound Weapon Armor would dare to block this attack head-on, yet you want to catch it with your bare hands? You don’t know the meaning of... What? H-How is this possible?"

Wangg Tianyi couldn’t even finish his sentence. The triumphant look on his face froze completely.

His eyes went wide, and he was left stunned and speechless...

Just as the blade was about to cleave Jiang Chen in two, its rapid descent came to a shuddering halt. The hundred-zhang blade was caught between Jiang Chen’s bare hands.

BOOM—

The instant the blade met his hands, terrifying shockwaves radiated out in all directions.

One cyan wind blade struck a courtyard, slicing the entire compound in half. Another landed in a lake, causing the water to explode upward, sending it flying toward the Celestial Vault until the entire lake was drained dry. Yet another blade shot into the sky, detonating with a roar and scattering the clouds across the firmament...

When everything slowly returned to calm, the gales died down.

Jiang Chen could be seen holding his hands high above his head, having caught the hundred-zhang wind blade between his palms.

A dark golden light pulsed around his body. The veins on his forehead throbbed, and his will to fight burned like a Blazing Fire.

"Break for me!"

Jiang Chen took a heavy step forward. The ground beneath his feet caved in, riddled with cracks. His arms suddenly swelled as he pushed forward with terrifying force.

BOOM—

The hundred-zhang blade spun around and shot back toward Wangg Tianyi.

"No—"

Wangg Tianyi’s expression changed drastically. He launched several attacks in quick succession, but none could stop the terrifying blow. He could only wrap his wings around his body. With a deafening CRASH, the blade struck him, sending him flying backward. His pair of Cyan Simurgh Phoenix Feathers exploded, scattering into a rain of cyan light.

Wangg Tianyi’s body slammed into the ground. He coughed up a mouthful of blood, his condition unknown!

The entire Cuiwei Pavilion fell silent. Gazing at the youth who pulsed with golden light like a world-conquering deity, everyone could only think of two words—

Invincible Physique!
