Supreme Sword God

Chapter 1080: Chapter 1079: Wan Qianjue, Detonate the Divine Core!

The people of the Ten Thousand Islands Sect were utterly stunned.

Everything happened too suddenly, catching them off guard.

If it had merely been an external assault, the Ten Thousand Islands Sect had sufficient power stationed here to suppress it.

Even with Ye Chen and Chi Mutian involved, they still had a considerable opportunity to turn the tide, after all, Chi Mutian was not at his peak, and would eventually be overpowered by Ouyang Zhen, the one ranked first under the Great Emperor. Ye Chen might not even stand a chance against Ouyang Zhen, let alone facing both him and Granny Wan Mei combined.

However...

All of a sudden, tens of thousands of individuals, whom the Ten Thousand Islands Sect had locked in the lighthouse as bargaining chips, also erupted simultaneously, leaving the sect’s members in disarray.

"Activate the array, use its power, annihilate them!"

A strong voice roared from within the Ten Thousand Islands Sect.

The next moment.

A brilliant glow shone from each array.

However.

Most of these array restrictions were as sluggish as old tortoises, extremely difficult and slow to activate.

"Kill!"

Old Wang of the Seventy-two Islands, wielding the Emperor’s Great Saber, yelled fiercely, "You bastards of Ten Thousand Islands Sect, all must die!"

The ruthless and unbridled bandit Li Hai did not hold back either, his bold and sweeping blade techniques reaping the lives of the sect’s members in swathes.

Luo Tian was even more ruthless.

He had always tempered himself through combat. Once he drew his sword, it mattered not whether his opponent was strong or weak, his moves always remained in their strongest state. Though he hadn’t yet reached sainthood, his destructive power was enough to threaten the Emperor Realm!

In the blink of an eye, the situation entirely slipped from the Ten Thousand Islands Sect’s control.

The door to a chamber opened.

The doppelganger of Emperor Tian Wan stepped out.

Regarding the current chaos, his brows furrowed deeply.

"Ye Chen, Chi Mutian, you think just the two of you can hinder me?"

The doppelganger of Emperor Tian Wan sneered, and in the next instant, launched himself towards the highest point of that lighthouse.

At the highest point of the lighthouse, there lay a shattered divine core.

This was the source of the lighthouse’s power to resist the dark tide.

The divine core was enveloped in a layer of powerful restriction, but as Emperor Tian Wan’s doppelganger reached it, a crack appeared in the restriction, allowing him to smoothly enter.

The next moment.

A fearsome power began to permeate from within the restriction surrounding the divine core.

Like an imminent volcanic eruption, once it burst, it would be unstoppable!

Ye Chen, who was fighting against Granny Wan Mei, noticed this scene, and his expression changed drastically.

"Damn it, this Heaven Ten Thousand Old Dog is a Celestial-tier Divine Appraiser!"

Ye Chen cursed angrily.

This was something he had never anticipated!

The doppelganger of Emperor Tian Wan had moderate battle strength, at most at the Emperor Realm level. No matter how precise his power control, his total power was evident, and Ye Chen was not worried.

But...

This guy turned out to be a Celestial-tier Divine Appraiser!

A Celestial-tier Divine Appraiser doesn’t need immense power, only the ability to control the power of the divine stone.

Hence, the main body of Emperor Tian Wan was a Celestial-tier Divine Appraiser, so was his doppelganger!

At this moment, Ye Chen understood what Emperor Tian Wan intended, he planned to use the Divine Stone Array to detonate that fragmented divine core!

The divine core, even just a small fragment, contained terrifying levels of energy at its core.

If detonated...

Only the very top few might survive, all others would perish!

Emperor Tian Wan... was ruthless enough!

And this countermeasure, brilliant enough!

He aimed to obliterate all witnesses!

Ye Chen’s expression grew grave.

If everyone else perished, even if he and Lao Chi adamantly accused the Ten Thousand Islands Sect of their vile actions, no one would believe them!

After all, they had grievances with the Ten Thousand Islands Sect.

If they revealed the truth, others would just assume they were purposefully maligning the Ten Thousand Islands Sect, throwing baseless accusations!

"Get lost!"

Ye Chen shouted fiercely, slashing out with his sword, sending Granny Wan Mei flying quite a distance.

At this moment, he no longer had the mind to first kill Granny Wan Mei, he needed to stop Emperor Tian Wan immediately.

Moreover, ensuring the Ten Thousand Islands Sect became the public enemy would not matter.

All these people here, now trusted him and were fighting alongside him against the Ten Thousand Islands Sect, so he had to be responsible for all their lives!

After sending Granny Wan Mei flying with a slash, Ye Chen swiftly flashed towards the top of the lighthouse.

"Come back to me!"

The Grand Elder of the Ten Thousand Islands Sect, known as the top-ranked individual under the Great Emperor, Ouyang Zhen, roared. His domain power instantly morphed into a long spear.

Morphing a domain into form, this was a method Ye Chen had never witnessed.

Ouyang Zhen’s domain power completely erupted from the spear’s tip, violently piercing through the space, appearing behind Ye Chen.

With a thought, Ye Chen activated his Eternal Golden Body.

The defense of the Eternal Golden Body combined with the Law Battle Armor layered together barely blocked Ouyang Zhen’s horrific strike.

Yet, Ye Chen’s speed was consequently impeded.

Ouyang Zhen shook off Chi Mutian’s entanglement, swiftly placing himself in front of Ye Chen, denying him any opportunity to approach the lighthouse.

The worst-off Chi Mutian also fluttered over beside Ye Chen, his form already a figure of strength mostly battered and incomplete now.

"Wan Qianjue, that old fox, hid well!" Chi Mutian cursed.

Evidently, Wan Qianjue was the real name of Emperor Tian Wan.

Granny Wan Mei also came over, her state similar to Chi Mutian’s, bloodied all over from Ye Chen’s blows, with Ye Chen’s power wreaking havoc on her wounds, making it utterly impossible for her to regenerate flesh and blood quickly.

Ouyang Zhen coldly snorted, "Ye Chen, Chi Mutian, you two are immensely audacious. Yet with Emperor Tian Wan here, no matter how thorough your plans, they’re just futile struggles against insurmountable odds!"

Ye Chen took a deep breath.

The longer the delay, the more dangerous the situation grew.

"Lao Chi, let’s go all out!" Ye Chen roared in a low voice. The next moment, his aura became violently intense, as a large amount of Demonic Qi surged continuously from his Origin World, merging into his unified power system.

Kunpeng wings flapped away, the overshadowing wings stirring up a dreadful storm.

Ouyang Zhen wielded the spear formed from his domain, thrashing it out fiercely, shattering the Kunpeng wings.

Ye Chen’s body cut across the storm, forcefully advancing toward Ouyang Zhen.

Sun, moon, and stars manifested along with Ye Chen’s sword light, displaying magnificent might.

Additionally, the might of the Thunder Qilin, True Dragon, Divine Phoenix, Profound Turtle among others, reflected in Ye Chen’s sword strikes.

However.

Ouyang Zhen’s power showed no signs of weakness, he had once aspired for the Realm of the Great Emperor, although he failed, his strength bore traces of a Great Emperor’s might!

In earlier days.

When Ye Chen battled Tong Dabao at the Martial Alliance Headquarters, he avoided defeat by leveraging the three pinnacle phenomena of sainthood first, breaking through Tong Dabao’s Great Emperor Domain World.

Now, without the aid of such external forces, his battle against Ouyang Zhen remained intensely challenging.

Ye Chen’s confrontation with Ouyang Zhen seemed none too optimistic.

The unfocused fight between Chi Mutian and Granny Wan Mei just barely maintained an even match.

The terrifying pressure from the Divine Stone Array at the top of the lighthouse continuously activated the power within the divine core, strengthening its overwhelming presence.

And just then.

An unforeseen change erupted!

"Celestial Dao Slash!"

A figure, bearing unstoppable momentum, lunged towards the lighthouse top.

It was Luo Tian!

Without a trace of fear on his face!

His eyes, filled with a maddened battle spirit soaring to the heavens!

In his hand, a heavy black sword cleaved open a boundless world!
