Chapter 2034: The Strongest Opponent
The Law Battle Platform became an independent space. Two silhouettes floated in the sky, facing each other.
The gigantic divine tablet released the brilliant divine light of the Great Path. With Ye Futian’s figure as its center, a galaxy of the Great Path appeared. The divine tablet seemed to be from the ancient past, suppressing everything in this space.
The light that shot out from the blinding Sword of Light and the divine tablet collided. Each beam of light was like a sword. Billions of pillars of light were like billions of divine swords. In the sky above, they formed an astonishing river of swords. Seeing that the divine tablet was blocking them, Chen Yi pointed a finger ahead. A beam of light immediately slashed across the space and landed on the divine tablet. The beam of light lit up on the divine tablet from top to bottom. A mark of light appeared on the gigantic stone tablet.
“Split!” Chen Yi uttered.
As he said this, the extremely dazzling stone tablet actually split in two along the mark of light. The next moment, Chen Yi’s figure disappeared, becoming a beam of light.
Buzz!
The beam of light disappeared. The crowd saw Ye Futian’s figure leave behind an afterimage. As the light descended from above, the afterimage disappeared, and the two of them appeared high above in the sky elsewhere.
“So fast…” exclaimed the crowd.
The crowd tried to follow their movements but soon discovered that they could not catch sight of their figures at all. Both of them were too fast. If they weren’t on the Law Battle Platform, they might have traversed a thousand miles in an instant.
However, the difference between the two of them was that Ye Futian was teleporting while Chen Yi was moving at the speed of light. Both of them possessed extreme speed. This was what caused the other cultivators to be unable to follow their movements.
At that moment, both of their silhouettes suddenly came to a stop. They stood across the space, staring at each other.
“Such a fast sword,” Chief Ning said in Donghua Palace. In this short interval, the two of them had exchanged blows countless times. The other cultivators could not see it clearly, but the giant figures above in Donghua Palace naturally saw what had happened.
“It is not just his sword, but also his speed. This is the Way of Light,” Emperor Xi said. “Although there is no absolute strength or weakness for Ways of the Great Path and it still depends on the user, in reality, some powers of the Great Path will definitely be more powerful than others once mastered.”
Those who cultivated up to their Plane understood. There was no such thing as a strong or weak Great Path. This fact was not always true under all circumstances. In reality, if the same person cultivated different Ways, there would be a difference in terms of strength between the Ways he mastered.
If not, every Renhuang would have no qualm choosing between the Way of Light and the other of the five Great Paths. Everyone would choose the former.
“This time, this fellow has truly met his match,” Thunder Punishing Skylord said with a laugh. Chen Yi was truly a threat to Ye Futian. His ability was super powerful, and he had been undefeated in Law Battles before this. Ye Futian, who had defeated countless prominent figures and had yet to suffer a loss, finally encountered an extremely powerful opponent.
The people down below were very excited. Although many of them could not understand what they were seeing, they still felt that this battle seemed interesting.
The two of them stood facing each other in the space on the Law Battle Platform. Chen Yi was like a Child of Light as he was bathed in light. Each beam of light that shot out contained frightening power. He looked at Ye Futian and said, “I never imagined that Renhuang Ye would be so proficient in the Great Path of Space. If we continue fighting like this, who knows when we will be able to determine a victor.”
Ye Futian lowered his head and looked at Chen Yi. He answered, “It won’t take long.”
Ye Futian had barely uttered this when Chen Yi suddenly frowned. Then, he sensed a strange change in the surroundings. With his figure as the center, there seemed to be a bizarre change to this part of the space. A domain of the Great Path formed, and countless currents flowed within the space. A cold moon appeared above where Ye Futian stood, and stars circled him. An extremely cold aura flowed over the land, seemingly freezing it solid.
Chen Yi sensed the cold aura around him. He looked at Ye Futian and muttered, “The power of Yin.”
Just as he said this, he saw Ye Futian shoot an Eye Sorcery over. The Eye Sorcery pierced straight towards Chen Yi’s eyes, attempting to invade his mind and will. However, at that moment, intense light radiated from Chen Yi’s pupils. Ye Futian was blocked out from invading.
Ye Futian revealed a strange look. This was the first time his Eye Sorcery had failed. His opponent’s eyes could become Eyes of Light and defend against Ye Futian’s Eye Sorcery invasion.
Moonlight shone down. It contained the power of Yin. The light of the cold moon caused the space to become extremely cold. It also contained a terrifying destructive power as it froze over the domain of the Great Path. However, Chen Yi still stood there quietly, seemingly unperturbed by the cold. Behind him, in the sky above, a sword floated in the air. It was his Sword of Light.
Even more blinding light shot out and formed an absolute domain of the Great Path around Chen Yi. When the moonlight shone down and came in contact with the domain of Light, it could not pierce through. It was unable to break through the defense of Chen Yi’s Great Path.
Buzz. Chen Yi’s figure disappeared once again and became a beam of light that shot towards Ye Futian. As his figure moved, with his figure as the center, countless beams of divine light that contained terrifying murderous power shot out. For other Renhuangs, it would be difficult for them to survive being near him.
I am being affected, Chen Yi thought to himself as he felt his speed of light being affected by the power of Ye Futian’s domain of the Great Path. However, even so, he was still extremely fast. The distance between the two of them was insignificant to him. He could ignore it entirely.
Buzz.
A Sword of Light swept across the space and stabbed towards Ye Futian’s body. There was no technique involved. Extreme speed was absolute power. If it were any other person, when the light landed, Chen Yi’s opponent would already be dead. They would not have the ability to block his attack at all.
When the Sword of Light charged over towards him, an astonishing current of the Great Path suddenly surged around Ye Futian’s body. Two layers were formed around him, one hot and one cold. It made everyone feel very uncomfortable.
Ye Futian’s figure turned ethereal. Countless afterimages appeared. He used the Great Path of Space to teleport. However, the speed of his opponent’s Sword of Light seemed to surpass space. Chen Yi followed every traversal Ye Futian made through space, chasing behind him closely.
In the battlefield, the crowd saw endless afterimages that were dragged out, as well as an ever-advancing light.
“What is he doing?”
Some people in Donghua Palace discovered that something was strange. Many people below also noticed it. Two completely different types of currents had appeared around Ye Futian’s body. As he moved, the two currents crisscrossed and circled one another.
Chen Yi also noticed this. It was not just that. Countless destructive lightning gradually descended around his body. The two terrifying powers hanging over Ye Futian’s body slowly coalesced into a pattern of the Great Path.
Soon, an astonishing destructive power spread out above Ye Futian. In the sky above, the Great Path’s endless power coalesced, and an awe-inspiring pattern of the Great Path appeared.
This gigantic pattern was hot and cold, both Yin and Yang. It became Yin Yang Fish.
Fire and ice, some people thought to themselves.
“Yin and Yang,” others mumbled. The scene was too terrifying. A gigantic Yin Yang Diagram appeared and consumed the Great Path’s power around them, turning the area into a true vacuum.
“The flames seem to be the Divine Fire of Wutong. On the other hand, the cold aura seems to be the power of Yin,” Chief Ning muttered in Donghua Palace.
He could sense the two powers. These two powers intertwined and formed a destructive Yin Yang Diagram.
Two powers descended from the Yin Yang Diagram at the same time. It was like an endless catastrophe of the Great Path. They blocked out the sun and the sky. It was as though everything within this domain of the Great Path was about to be destroyed by the Yin Yang Diagram.
Screech…
An ear-piercing sound could be heard. The light of catastrophe descended from the Yin Yang Diagram collided with the light that radiated from Chen Yi’s body. This time, it actually suppressed the Way of Light on Chen Yi’s body and constantly compressed his domain of the Great Path.
“This…”
The crowd was awestruck. Ye Futian was too powerful. He had not displayed such ability during his previous battle with Kong Xiao. He was only forced to demonstrate it once Chen Yi appeared. How powerful exactly was he?
He seemed to be limitless, becoming even more powerful when encountering powerful adversaries.
This should be his strongest trump card, many people thought to themselves. With the combination of his sword and light, Chen Yi had forced Ye Futian to reveal his full strength.
Ye Futian looked down below. His will shifted, and countless destructive divine light plummeted from the Yin Yang Diagram, slaughtering toward Chen Yi.
Facing such power, Chen Yi was finally suppressed. He lifted his head and looked at Ye Futian. His eyes did not reveal disappointment. He seemed to be even more excited. He didn’t even seem surprised.
His Divine Wheel of the Great Path resonated with his body. Endless divine light gathered on his figure. Chen Yi moved once again. With his power of Light, he directly penetrated the Yin Yang light of catastrophe descending upon him. He charged straight towards Ye Futian.
A high-pitched swoosh sound could be heard. Light of catastrophe kept descending, landing on the beam of light. However, Ye Futian’s opponent continued advancing, showing no signs of retreating.
Buzz.
Ye Futian’s figure also moved. The extremely frightening Yin Yang Diagram also moved with his figure. Countless Yin Yang light of catastrophe protected him as they descended towards Chen Yi. The crowd lifted their heads and saw their two lights collide with each other. An extremely intense blinding light shot out, becoming a light shroud that swept over the surrounding region. The area in the Law Battle Platform shook violently.
The blinding divine light dissipated, and the Law Battle Platform returned to normal. Chen Yi stood there quietly. His clothes were in tatters, yet he still stood there straight and tall as he looked up at Ye Futian.
Ye Futian also stood there quietly, just looking at his opponent. This Chen Yi was the most powerful figure that Ye Futian had met among the same generation.
“Incredible. Even my power of Light cannot touch you,” Chen Yi praised. He continued, “It seems that among those of the same generation, no one in the Donghua Domain can do so.”
His words contained immense self-confidence. It was as though others could not do what he could not. However, this self-confidence that was borderline arrogance was acknowledged by many people.
Even a figure as powerful as Chen Yi could not pose a threat to Ye Futian!
