Chapter 453 - Shocking Battle
At the jade lake, this uninhabited dangerous place had welcomed two ferocious people on this day.
Facing the fragile space in the outside world and the space-travel distortion that could erupt at any moment, the two of them did not seem to think much of it.
“Buzz!”
Li Tengfei reached out with his hand, and the shadows of overlapping worlds appeared in his palm. It was as if the world in his palm was real. In the next moment, with the enhancement of the endless power of the world, he charged forward.
This was how powerful the person with twin pupils was. Even if he did not specialize in training his physical body, with the enhancement from the power in his eyes, his aura was as terrifying as that of a giant beast.
“It’s just an illusion. It only has the appearance.”
Almost at the same time, countless explosions rang out. Every cell in Chen Yiming’s body became active, and an endless amount of blood essence power appeared in the air. The sky was instantly dyed red.
He struck back with his palm, and the power from the trillions of miniature inner worlds enhanced his strike. On the surface, it did not look as powerful as the illusion of the overlapping worlds, but it was truly powerful.
In the area around the jade lake, the intensity of the battle caused everything to be drowned out again.
The battle between Chen Yiming and Li Tengfei was too shocking. It was as if real worlds had been summoned one after another, and the scene of the worlds being born and destroyed was continuously reflected in the air.
“Boom!”
The void exploded, and killing intent spread out in all directions.
The clear dividing line between heaven and earth did not move. The two of them did not give in at all. Even if it was purely a waste of energy, no one was willing to be the one to take a step back first.
The result was naturally that the space in the jade lake could not withstand it anymore. A large number of spatial rifts exploded, and they were visibly connected to the space-travel distortion.
However, this was nothing to the two of them. The power they had mastered was enough to ensure that they would not be dragged into the space-travel distortion by the power of distortion.
“Splash!”
Li Tengfei’s eyes lit up. After a moment of stalemate, he was the first to change to a different attack. His body turned into thousands of purple lightning bolts that flashed as he moved. The purple light in the air was hazy, as if an illusion had materialized.
His transformation into purple lightning was comparable to a speed talent, and the changes in his movements were unpredictable.
His feet were stepping on the air. Be it the power of distortion from the space-travel distortion he encountered along the way or the interference from the invisible aura on the battlefield, they could not stop him from moving quickly.
The fighting spirit in Chen Yiming’s eyes soared. The illusory world that the other party had summoned to strengthen himself could actually fight against him head-on. Although he couldn’t fight it out to the end, it was enough to make him take it seriously. The reputation of the twin pupils was not fake.
He took a step forward and charged forward like a god of war. No matter how many attacks landed on him, he would punch, slap, and kick back. His simple attacks relied on the strength of his body.
In an instant, thunder rumbled on the surface of the jade lake, as if lightning from the heavens had descended. The purple and red colors clashed head-on. The two of them collided fiercely, and an endless divine light erupted.
Around the two of them, the chains of natural laws appeared faintly in the air. Those were references for cultivation on the path of gods. However, for some unknown reason, they seemed to be resonating and were about to materialize in the world.
The battle between the two of them was truly earth-shattering. For example, Li Tengfei had fought against many geniuses at the city ruler’s banquet.
Although that was shocking enough, in every small battle, he would take down one person in one or two moves. In reality, no genius could make him use his full strength.
For example, on the Flying Cloud Planet, even when facing the genius of the Roc clan, Chen Yiming could see the obvious difference in their strength. There was also a difference between geniuses.
This difference looked like it was just a hair’s breadth away, but in reality, it was a thousand miles apart. It was as if they were on different levels, and soon, one side would be defeated.
In the surrounding large cities, countless gods who usually did not show themselves had all rushed to the periphery of the battlefield.
The battle between the two of them caught everyone’s attention. Many people stared at the chains of natural laws that had faintly appeared and secretly tried to figure out the natural laws that were suitable for them to break through to the jade star realm.
At the level of the gods, even at the starting point of the star condensation realm, others could not teach them much. In the inner world, every individual had a different foundation before breaking through, so the situation was naturally different.
As for how to bring the inner world into the real world, they had to comprehend everything by themselves and use the world as their teacher to observe the birth and destruction of the stars in the universe and the living planets.
However, now that the chains of natural laws had actually appeared in the air, how could they not be fascinated and envious?
Even among the gods, these people were extremely talented. They could be considered the sons blessed by the heavens, making one sigh in envy and helplessness.
This was especially true for the person with twin pupils. Everyone suspected that he could even easily see the chains of natural laws. The path of cultivation on the path of the gods would still be like walking on flat ground for him, and his progress would be rapid.
At some point, the purple lightning dissipated.
His body had transformed thousands of times. Even though the attacks were only dodged occasionally, they didn’t have much effect. The charred marks disappeared in a flash. Chen Yiming’s body was too strong.
Li Tengfei’s eyes narrowed as he pressed his palms together.
In the next moment, a jade-green chain quickly appeared in the air, and was actually being led towards Chen Yiming.
“What!”
The gods watching from afar gasped.
It had to be known that only those at the jade star realm had truly started to try to integrate the natural laws into their inner world. The power of the inner world had only just obtained the enhancement from the natural laws.
However, in terms of controlling the natural laws, only gods at the level of the city ruler above the jade star realm had the power to do so.
No one could understand how the person with twin pupils had done it, but they saw with their own eyes that he could do it.
This was simply unbelievable. The person with twin pupils was indeed terrifying. He was actually using a power that was usually under the control of those two cultivation realms higher.
“We better run. This is getting serious.”
At the bottom of the jade lake, Gao Shuai shouted and led the way to escape.
Previously, it had only been a small fight. The illusory worlds had enhanced his body, but in reality, it was only the conventional power of the twin pupils. At that time, if they ran, they might be targeted.
However, it was different now. Controlling a power that was beyond what someone at the star condensation realm could control was just like Gao Shuai entering a prophecy to spy on the future. He would definitely not dare to be distracted.
If they did not escape now, it was not only a matter of whether there would be another suitable opportunity. The dangerous jade lake had already become extremely dangerous because of this.
“Run, run, run…”
The people from the source ore shop were already trembling in fear, afraid that they would die tragically at the bottom of the lake. Now that they heard Gao Shuai’s words, they did not dare to stay any longer.
Huang Zhongyun retracted his gaze and sighed to himself before following suit.
For someone at the jade star realm who was injured by the backlash from the natural laws, the first root of the problem lay in the foundation before forming the inner world, and the second was the level of control he had over the rules.
If he could gain an epiphany from watching the battle, it was even possible that the injuries caused by the backlash from the natural laws would disappear on the spot. Unfortunately, such a good opportunity had actually appeared at such an inappropriate time.
Soon, the team from the Seven Stars Source Ore Workshop, led by Gao Shuai, fled from the jade lake in the blink of an eye.
Some gods noticed all of this, but they turned around and pretended not to see it. No one was willing to miss such a rare opportunity to observe the laws of heaven and earth.
In fact, the leader of the factions in the Heaven Suppressing City who were cooperating with the Heaven Suppressing Army in the pursuit also pretended not to notice anything.
“Is this the true strength of a person with twin pupils who can fight someone of a higher level? Those jade chains of laws penetrated the power of distortion emitted by the space-travel distortion and directly devoured the power of distortion.”
Chen Yiming didn’t take the attack head-on. His figure faded away, and he used the space anchor he had placed in advance to dodge it.
At the same time, he sensed the killing intent emitted from its surface. His intuition told him that if he was hit, his unbelievable recovery ability would be exposed.
That was his greatest trump card. It was not worth exposing it so easily.
“Die!”
Li Tengfei’s eyes lit up, and the sky suddenly shook. A boundless divine light flashed, and he summoned it to seal off the area around the jade lake.
His opponent was a spatial ability user. Directing the jade chains to kill him was only a part of his finishing move. Thinking about it, his opponent would not be stupid enough to let it hit him.
Next was his actual finishing move. Before his twin pupils were born, he had been secretly trained by the ruler of Heaven Suppressing City to suppress spatial ability users in actual combat.
The overlapping worlds could create a huge interference and restrict the abilities of the spatial ability users. Coupled with the attacks from the jade chains, he had never failed before.
Therefore, in Li Tengfei’s opinion, Chen Yiming’s spatial ability would be the direct reason for his death.
This was the truth. Chen Yiming didn’t escape in advance. He only avoided the chains, as if he didn’t know that he had already stepped into a trap.
“Bang!”
Chen Yiming’s body shattered the overlapping space-travel barriers. He turned around and punched the jade chains.
The moment the chains cracked, a green light flashed. Not only did it return to its original state, but the terrifying punch was also completely absorbed.
Then, as if infuriated, the chains charged at Chen Yiming at an even faster speed. In an instant, the world turned from red to green, and the power of the natural laws was revealed.
At this moment, there were overlapping worlds outside. Chen Yiming had forcefully broken through the barrier of one world, and there were still countless barriers waiting for him. It was as if he had fallen into a maze and couldn’t escape.
With the jade chains chasing after him, the green light could not be restrained by the overlapping worlds. It gradually turned the battlefield around the jade lake into a green world.
At the same time, the exposed space-travel distortion began to stir, as if a terrifying existence had noticed the commotion at this location.
“What a terrifying chain. No wonder the city ruler allowed the person with twin pupils to appear in the world.”
Some of the gods watching the battle from afar judged that the person with twin pupils had combat strength that surpassed the jade star realm to a certain extent.
If not for the fact that he had been exposed at this moment, the incident at the city ruler’s banquet might have happened again. He would have stepped on a group of young geniuses and continued on his path of invincibility.
However, since he had been exposed, the geniuses of the various factions were not stupid. They would take the initiative to avoid him if they were not confident and would not let the person with twin pupils have a chance to defeat them so thoroughly.
“Impressive. Although he can’t control it fully, he can guide the chains of laws to appear. It’s rare for there to be someone at the star condensation realm to do this even in the entire history of the Hidden Dragon Galaxy.”
The strange man sighed in front of Li Zhentian.
This was the truth. The performance of the person with twin pupils was definitely above that of the strongest genius in the South Palace clan.
Therefore, it seemed that it was no longer appropriate to compare them to those of the same generation. They needed to be compared to those legends in history.
“He forced my son to use his full strength. That guy’s death has some worth now. How about we go for another round?”
Li Zhentian saw that this was not the worst outcome he had expected, where Gao Shuai would set up a terrifying killing formation, and his helper would be attacking from the side.
Naturally, he heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, in order to make up for the face he had lost previously, he took the initiative to invite the strange man to start a new round of chess.
Seeing this, the strange man felt like a fishbone was stuck in his throat. He wanted to refuse, but when he thought about how Gao Shuai had the ability to predict the future, he wondered if he could create some miracle.
He didn’t think that Chen Yiming would be able to defeat the twin pupils in a one-on-one battle. Otherwise, why would there be so many elders at the jade star realm who were injured by backlash from the natural laws?
Then, before the battle at the jade lake calmed down, the strange man and Li Zhentian played another round of chess in the air.
This time, if Li Zhentian won, then with the score being one to one, he would naturally have regained all his face. To the strange man, if he won another round, it would be two to zero. He could suppress the arrogance of the city ruler.
The factions of the Infinite Island Group and the source ore shops had a conflict. It was not to the extent of a full-scale battle to the death, but the big shots on both sides could still maintain some level of stability on the surface.
“Kill! Kill! Kill!”
The battle at the jade lake gradually reached its climax.
As blood flowed out of Li Tengfei’s twin pupils, two more jade chains appeared in the air and surrounded Chen Yiming.
Seeing that one of the chains was just a little short of killing the target, he risked overexerting himself to speed up the time it took for the target to die.
Three against one. This was a battle at the level of the star condensation realm that was completely unpredictable. He simply did not give his opponent any chance of survival and tried to kill him immediately.
At this moment, no one thought highly of Chen Yiming. They thought that this was the last struggle he would make. No matter how big a commotion he made on the Flying Cloud Planet, he would end up being defeated in the opposite fashion.
However, Chen Yiming secretly thought that this was a good opportunity. He controlled a space anchor and placed it behind him.
Chen Yiming had naturally taken a fancy to the Space Anchor talent for various reasons. Li Tengfei’s ability to seal space was essentially countered by the space anchor.
The space-travel barriers of the overlapping worlds exploded one after another, with holes appearing in them. It was as easy as a needle stabbing a piece of white paper, and it did not affect the space anchor at all.
In the next moment, Chen Yiming had completely escaped the encirclement of the chains. Unexpectedly, under Li Tengfei’s gaze, he appeared behind his opponent. One punch, two punches, three punches…
He went all out, and the world shook. Everything seemed to be destroyed with each punch. This pure power was so powerful that it could naturally crush everything.
This was the truth. Most of Li Tengfei’s attention was no longer on himself, and he immediately fell to the bottom of the jade lake with a heavy blow. Along the way, the space around him was completely shattered.
The situation had changed so quickly that everyone was caught off guard. If the battlefield changed from the jade lake to the space-travel distortion, the situation would change.
The person with twin pupils was not afraid of the space-travel distortion, but to spatial ability users, it was a combat environment that benefited them. There were endless external forces that they could use at will.
The outcome suddenly seemed very uncertain.
