Chapter 1597: Chapter 414: Great Perfection of the Dao Inquiry Realm (Three updates of ten thousand words, please subscribe!)

The Yuan Emperor revealed his true strength, unleashing the Yuan Emperor Fist, once famed as the supreme martial art in all realms during the ancient era, and blasted Gu Chen into oblivion, scattering his blood across the sky like rain.

This spectacle could be described as shockingly thrilling to the extreme!

It should be known that ever since Gu Chen made his debut in the Lower Nine Provinces, his physical body had always been his strong suit. In this aspect, he had always been the one crushing others, reducing his opponents to shreds, but now the tables had completely turned, which was simply unimaginable!

This goes to show just how powerful the Yuan Emperor really is.

Swish!

With a surge of sky-reaching radiance, myriad specks of blood and bone coalesced, and Gu Chen’s form reappeared.

Fortunately, at his level of cultivation, every aspect of his being was nearly at its peak, such that as long as a single drop of blood remained, he could achieve the legendary rebirth from a droplet of blood.

Of course, this was only because Gu Chen’s strength was formidable enough; for any other cultivator at the peak of the Questioning Path realm, that one strike would have been sufficient for complete annihilation.

The Yuan Emperor, who was also known as the Holy Master, now regarded the world indifferently, akin to a sovereign lord looking down upon all beneath heaven, standing amidst the boundless outer void without a word, his fist seals consolidating before unleashing yet another supreme strike.

With a thunderous sound, the dark chains of Dao and demonic laws manifested, intending to subdue Gu Chen on the spot.

The Yuan Emperor Fist, immeasurably mighty, had truly stepped into the highest realm and was unmatched!

Gu Chen focused his spirit, his vital energy soaring as he pushed his physical body to the limit. The nearly complete Original Immortal Body was also fully activated at this moment without any reservation.

"Kill!"

Gu Chen let out a long howl, his fingers clenched into a fist as he struck back at his opponent, unleashing his own supreme fist intent that claimed invincibility and unrivaled sovereignty!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Their clash was like billions of thunderbolts erupting, crackling and bursting, illuminating the dark, boundless outer void.

Spurt!

In the next moment, blood splattered as Gu Chen’s finger bones cracked, and even clad in the Daoist soldier, the Azure Heaven Battle Armor, it was futile; in a contest of physical strength, he was at a disadvantage!

"Your fist intent is indeed not bad; such youthful ambition," said the Yuan Emperor casually, emotionless in his pitch-black eyes devoid of any whites.

This is the highest realm, truly formidable to a point of despair, and even for Gu Chen, a sense of helplessness inevitably arose in his heart at this moment.

But soon, with his resolute will, he discarded that fleeting sense of powerlessness. As light surged once again, his entire state was restored to its peak.

"Ha!"

Gu Chen coldly shouted, stirring the countless Dao of heaven and earth, transforming the invisible laws into tangible ripples that struck out with overwhelming power.

It was the Dao Heaven Sound!

At that moment, the Yuan Emperor stood still, motionless, with tendrils of demonic aura emerging around him, each composed of supreme Dao patterns, perfectly defending against Gu Chen’s Dao Heaven Sound attack.

Boom!

The next instant, the sky cracked and the earth shattered as the Yuan Emperor reached out his hand, supreme Dao patterns shining, lunging toward Gu Chen.

His palm was not large, without displaying any overly astonishing manifestations; it was deceptively ordinary as it reached out. Yet, Gu Chen felt an unavoidable sensation of prickling pain over his entire body.

"Ultimate End Sword!"

In this moment, Gu Chen didn’t hesitate to counter with his fifth-grade boundless divine ability.

"Hmm?"

Clearly, as the aura of destruction and finality spread, the Yuan Emperor’s expression shifted subtly, showing a hint of surprise as he recognized the level of this boundless divine ability.

"The true origin of the myriad worlds is indeed extraordinary," he murmured, demonic energy flickering within his completely black eyes.

Facing this move, the Yuan Emperor didn’t take it lightly. After all, a fifth-grade boundless divine ability was, to a certain extent, stepping into the highest realm. He certainly wouldn’t choose to withstand it with his fleshly body—a rather unwise decision.

Therefore, at this moment, in addition to the Yuan Emperor Fist, he revealed another boundless divine ability.

"Nine Netherworld Seals!"

The Yuan Emperor transitioned from fist to palm, his five fingers pressing down like a netherworld inferno descending from the heavens, accompanied by the wailing of billions of ghosts, capable of penetrating the spirit of any cultivator under the heavens.

Crack!

The sound of fracture emanated from the Ultimate End Sword in Gu Chen’s hand, a tone that could resound even in the boundless outer void.

At this moment, fissures spread across the sword embryo in Gu Chen’s hand.

The fifth-grade boundless divine ability, Ultimate End Sword, was broken.

"Pfft!"

In the next instant, Gu Chen coughed blood, his complexion rapidly turning deathly pale as his body staggered and retreated backward.

This battle was truly more arduous than the recent one against the Feather Emperor from the Netherworld Realm.

After all, that Feather Emperor was merely an incarnation, whereas the Holy Master he faced now was a bona fide enemy from the highest realm!

Had Gu Chen not made a breakthrough to the late stage of the Questioning Path realm, with every aspect of his strength vastly increased, he would have long since perished at the hands of the Yuan Emperor, unable to hold on until now.

Whether it was his physical body, cultivation level, or spirit, Gu Chen was totally outclassed by the Yuan Emperor in front of him.

This was the first time he had ever experienced such a situation; in the past, he was always ahead of others, but now the situation had completely reversed.

"What a bleak and arduous battle," Gu Chen murmured, his eyes deep and profound.

He was not disheartened; rather, his fighting spirit soared even higher!

Because fighting against a stronger opponent is the best way to improve oneself!

Moreover, as Gu Chen himself had said before the battle began, he was not without a sliver of hope for victory in this fight!
