Chapter 2428 Swords Clash, Fierce Battle
As Qin Buqi made this move, all nine skulls in his hand exploded at that moment, emitting an eerie light. Some of them burrowed into Qin Buqi's brow, while others entered the black knife.
His aura suddenly changed.
The demonic power surged again, as if it were about to break through to the peak of the Emperor's Realm.
Unfortunately, Qin Buqi failed.
However, he is already very close to the pinnacle of the Emperor's Path. He only needs a trigger to step into it, achieve a new life, and see new scenery.
It's obvious that Qin Buqi is going to risk his life.
He either goes mad or steps on Chen Qingyuan's corpse to go even further.
The demonic forces stirred up turmoil, creating waves of chaos.
A storm, imbued with the rules of the ultimate path, raged towards Chen Qingyuan, causing his black hair to dance wildly and his clothes to flutter in the wind.
"It's a bit interesting."
The pressure suddenly intensified, and a few glints flashed in Chen Qingyuan's eyes, revealing only the joy of long-awaited anticipation, without a trace of fear.
"I'm going to take your life!"
After saying this, Qin Buqi came over with his sword.
Standing on a sea of blood, surrounded by countless runes of order, his demonic power was like a world-shaking tsunami, covering the star field and shaking the universe.
Swish!
With a single slash of his sword, he cleaved the battlefield in two.
A dazzling beam of light pierced the sky, aimed directly at Chen Qingyuan's location, causing that void to suddenly collapse and then explode into fragments.
Before Qin Buqi even arrived, the place where Chen Qingyuan was located had already become a ruin, with order collapsed and countless cries of agony filling the air.
The power of the blade, which was almost at the peak of the Emperor's Path, made Chen Qingyuan dare not underestimate it and he was determined to deal with it with all his might.
Although Qin Buqi displayed extraordinary and terrifying demonic power, it was not enough to make Chen Qingyuan use the Human Emperor Sword and Yuehong.
He never forgot his main purpose: not to defeat his opponent, but to push his Reincarnation Body closer to its limit, to temper his body and comprehend the Dao, and to reach the pinnacle.
"Farewell Song!"
The sword's departure from the song seemed to echo with the sound of war drums from ancient battlefields, resounding throughout heaven and earth, and shaking the very soul.
Chen Qingyuan did not use his strongest "Return to One" sword style. Firstly, it was unnecessary, and secondly, the Zi Jun sword might not be able to withstand it.
It integrates the thirteen ultimate sword intents into one, far surpassing the forbidden realm. Chen Qingyuan only dares to unleash it when wielding the Human Emperor Sword.
Although the Zi Jun Sword is an imperial weapon, there's no guarantee it can withstand the attack. Having gone to great lengths to repair it, unless it's an extremely urgent situation, there's no need to gamble.
Clang! Tear!
The sword was drawn with earth-shattering force, distorting space and time. A long river of time, sometimes visible, sometimes hidden, began to flow, and the war drums from the ancient battlefield resounded, each beat striking the hearts of those present.
When swords clashed again, the world fell silent.
The blood-soaked pagoda has vanished like smoke.
The billions of desiccated corpses crawling in the void were all blasted into dust.
Sword energy burst forth, and blade force scattered in all directions. The place where the two clashed had become a void beyond the reach of all paths, devoid of color, light, and even the concept of time.
The Void Realm is rapidly expanding, encompassing a territory of tens of millions of miles, and shows no sign of stopping, as if it wants to devour the universe, return everything to its origin, and recreate chaos.
A few breaths later, the void collapsed.
Chen Qingyuan and Qin Buqi retreated simultaneously, and countless streams of light burst forth.
Both sides sustained some degree of injury, with some areas of skin and flesh torn off and a few drops of precious blood oozing from the wounds.
The moment they regained their footing, they charged at their opponent.
Qin Buqi has gone into a frenzy, and now he has only one thought: to kill Chen Qingyuan!
Only by killing Chen Qingyuan can he awaken.
Otherwise, the original consciousness will be forever plunged into the abyss.
Every time Qin Buqi swung his black longsword, it left an extremely cold and eerie mark on the fragmented and vast starry sky.
With repeated waving, these chilling Dao marks actually condensed into a huge, special rune.
The moment the talisman appeared, it immediately pressed down on Chen Qingyuan.
At this moment, Chen Qingyuan was engaged in a fierce battle with Qin Buqi, never expecting that his opponent had secretly prepared a deadly move.
"rise!"
Faced with the unexpected situation, Chen Qingyuan made a decision, and the terrifying strange scene surrounding him was no longer an illusion, but formed a physical entity.
The Evil Eye of Reincarnation locks onto the demonic runes.
Bang!
The evil eye rotated counterclockwise, creating an extremely bizarre scene. Then, the attacking talisman was erased mid-attack, causing no harm to Chen Qingyuan.
Qin Buqi continued his relentless attack, like a mad and starving beast that had caught the strong scent of blood and desperately wanted to take a bite.
The situation on the battlefield is difficult to describe in ordinary terms; the void is wildly distorted, and the rules are abnormally chaotic.
The once incredibly prosperous Upper Star System is now a forbidden zone of shattered chaos.
Let alone ordinary people, even a quasi-emperor of the present era would be instantly wiped out by the residual force of the battle, and leaving a complete corpse would be a luxury.
The two fought fiercely, and the sound of clashing swords echoed in every corner of the battlefield.
If Chen Qingyuan truly wanted a swift victory, he would have summoned Yuehong long ago. His focus is on enlightenment, and he won't kill the powerful enemy for now.
Meanwhile, Gongsun Rong, who had been watching the battle intently, showed a clear sense of surprise, even though he was completely devoid of flesh and blood.
"I found it!"
One of Gongsun Rong's avatars has arrived at a bustling area and, through the Soul Searching Technique, has learned a great deal of information about the Divine Land at the fastest speed.
The original body and the incarnation have a special connection; with just a thought, one can know the entire situation of the incarnation.
"Chen Qingyuan, respectfully addressed as His Excellency, the Qing Clan..."
The most crucial figure, Gongsun Rong, is someone we must understand first.
It would have been better if he hadn't known. Once he did, his worldview collapsed into pieces, completely eliminating any possibility of repair.
"This is impossible!"
The information they had gathered so far was utterly outrageous. Gongsun Rong couldn't accept it; his frame trembled slightly, and he couldn't calm down for a while.
It would be better to make him believe that Chen Qingyuan is a quasi-emperor than to have an incredibly terrifying being suddenly appear and slap him to death. That would be easier for him to accept.
Therefore, Gongsun Rong instructed his avatar to continue gathering information and confirming details from multiple sources.
"It's definitely fake information. It's information that Fellow Daoist Chen deliberately spread to disguise himself and conceal his true identity."
Gongsun Rong came up with a reason that made him feel better. In any case, he didn't believe that Chen Qingyuan's true cultivation level was only the ninth step of the Divine Bridge. That was too ridiculous.
Sometimes, reality is even more absurd than fiction.
Hundreds of rounds passed, and Qin Buqi still couldn't defeat Chen Qingyuan. Frustrated, he roared and unleashed a slash: "Ah!"
As usual, Chen Qingyuan raised his sword to block Qin Buqi's attack with ease and appeared quite relaxed.
"kill!"
Qin Buqi ripped off the skull necklace hanging around his neck and roared madly.
