Chapter 2169: Merger of Good and Evil: Invincible

Yan Wushen—who was now in Golden Giant Mode—did not flinch despite seeing Zhang Ruochen waving his sword. Instead, there was excitement in his eyes. The 96-foot-tall golden giant moved and released a majestic golden Blood Qi.

Moving his fists, Yan Wushen fueled his power into the pair of gauntlets he was wearing.

Suddenly, the gauntlets also shone with a bright golden light. A large number of Supreme Inscriptions emerged. Streaks of powerful Supreme Power surged out of them.

In an instant, Yan Wushen had already unleashed over a hundred punches. The sky was filled with majestic fist marks. They were like ancient divine mountains that tore through space and time and appeared in this world.

Over a hundred Fist Marks collided with the illusory realm of Sword Qi. Like hundreds of massive stars, they crashed into the illusory realm.

BOOM!

The space immediately shattered like glass due to the impact. A destructive Dimensional Storm was formed. It destroyed the courtyard, turning everything into dust.

At this moment, the realm of stars, despite being solid and stable, shook violently. The starry sky within the realm was covered with large Dimensional Rifts. It was as if the entire world was about to collapse.

The realm formed of Sword Qi shattered, but it also crushed all the Fist Marks.

Following that, countless streaks of sharp Sword Qi were released, flooding over Yan Wushen.

Each Sword Qi had a Brand of Dimension on it that could bypass the barriers of space and destroy everything.

CLANG!

The sound of metal and stone colliding came as soon as the Sword Qi hit Yan Wushen’s golden body. However, it could not break through his golden body’s defense, leaving only shallow white marks.

Yan Wushen pressed his palms together, and a Swastika symbol appeared. It was an indestructible Buddhist seal, emitting boundless Buddhist light, spreading golden circles of ripples.

Wherever the golden ripples passed, the Sword Qi dissipated, and the violent force of Dimensions returned to peace.

For a moment, a large area of space was dyed golden. Golden lotus flowers grew out of thin air, and an ethereal Buddhist chant spread throughout the world. Inside the void, a peaceful nirvana appeared with virtual images of all the immortal Buddhas.

A moment later, all streaks of Sword Qi disappeared. The Swastika Buddhist Seal shrank and entered Yan Wushen—who was in Golden Giant Mode—through his chest.

“No wonder it is known as the mightiest Golden Body technique of Buddhist sect. It’s truly indestructible,” praised Zhang Ruochen, who was deeply impressed.

The sword strike he had launched just now was so powerful that even a Supreme Saint who had cultivated a Neverwither physique would not dare to take it head-on. It could slash a Neverwither physique, yet Yan Wushen remained unscathed.

As far as Zhang Ruochen knew, even in Western Buddha Realm, only few people could practice Golden Giant Mode. This technique was too fierce and overbearing that any slightest carelessness could lead to the destruction of one’s body.

From ancient times to date, only a handful of people could practice Golden Giant Mode to Grand Completion in Saint Kinghood.

Yin Yuanchen’s expression turned grave. He whispered, “Yan Wushen is indeed terrifying. No one would think that he still hold such a trump card. The Golden Giant Mode is a secret technique of Buddhist Sect. How did he get his hands on it?”

“Moreover, logically speaking, even if he had managed to obtain it, he could not have practiced it without the help of some special methods of Buddhist Sect. Could it be that he had some fortuitous encounters in Kunlun?”

In Kunlun, there was also Buddhist Sect that had a long history. It was inextricably linked to Western Buddha Realm.

Before this, he had never heard that Yan Wushen was a cultivator of Path of Buddhism. Yan Wushen had never evolved into Golden Giant Mode, even when chased by the Four Heavenly Kings of the Heaven Palace.

Hence, one possible explanation was that Yan Wushen had only successfully practiced Golden Giant Mode after he came to Kunlun.

Yin Yuanchen then shifted his gaze at Zhang Ruochen with a hint of surprise in his eyes. “Even a Supreme Saint would find it difficult to practice such a terrifying sword technique. His swordsmanship has reached such a high level,” he said.

He knew that Zhang Ruochen had attained amazing achievements in swordsmanship, but never had he expected him to be this powerful.

Yin Yuanchen could clearly feel the power of Zhang Ruochen’s sword just now. If it were him, he would have been either ended up dead or seriously injured.

Only Yan Wushen, who was in Golden Giant Mode, could take the sword strike head-on and remain intact.

“Zhang Ruochen, taste my punch too.”

Yan Wushen stepped on the void and unleashed a punch without making any fancy moves.

SWOOSH!

Thousands of streaks of golden light burst out from Yan Wushen and condensed into an illusory thousand-mile-tall Buddha that had a solemn look on his face. The Buddha struck out a punch too.

BOOM!

The streaks of golden light pierced through the void and shattered everything, creating a dark vacuum domain.

“Be careful.”

Chi Kunlun looked worried and could not help but shout.

He was stunned. In his eyes, Yan Wushen was like a powerful Buddha descending into the world and releasing the aura that could suppress everything.

He could not tell whether Zhang Ruochen could defeat Yan Wushen. No matter what, he did not want to see Zhang Ruochen get hurt.

Zhang Ruochen remained calm. He did not seem to be bothered about how strong the storm would be. With a wave of his Divine Sword, countless Marks of Time appeared. They filled the starry sky and resonated with the Divine Sword.

In an instant, a virtual Time Domain was formed. As a result, the flow of time in a large area was greatly altered. At this moment, Time and Space seemed to freeze.

A sword light streaked across the sky. It was so fast that no one could see it clearly.

Crack!

Yan Wushen’s terrifying Fist Mark cracked. It was cut in half and then scattered.

At this time, Yan Wushen had approached closer. He unclenched his fist and slowly struck out a palm strike.

The palm strike he launched expanded into an enormous hand. It covered heaven and earth, pressing down on Zhang Ruochen with great force.

At the same time, the virtual golden Buddhist Kingdom behind Yan Wushen became even more solid. It seemed like it was going to emerge from the void and descend into reality.

Inside the Buddhist Kingdom, 3,000 Buddhas were sighted sitting cross-legged. They were chanting scriptures continuously. They infused endless Power of Buddhism into Yan Wushen’s body. As a result, the hand covering the sky grew stronger and stronger. It was as if it could easily pluck the stars and the Moon from the sky.

Zhang Ruochen stood quietly where he was. Boundless Five-element Chaotic Qi surged out of his body and condensed into a huge illusory realm. It looked extremely solid, no different from a real world.

The illusory realm was evolving at an astonishing speed. The Precepts of Time and Dimension and the five elements interweaved within it. Earth, wind, water, and fire shook endlessly.

During his 72 days of self-cultivation training in Imperial Ruler, Zhang Ruochen had advanced his Five-element Chaotic Body to Perfection. If he took a step further, his body could achieve the physical state as strong as of a Supreme Saint.

The illusory realm of Chaos, with a diameter of more than 1,000 miles, rose into the air and collided with the hand covering the sky.

KABOOM!

The illusory realm of Chaos shook violently, but it managed to block the hand covering the sky steadily, preventing it from falling further.

The Swastika Buddhist Seal that had previously entered Yan Wushen’s body reemerged on the hand and released an enormous force.

Zhang Ruochen suddenly looked up. He wielded the Divine Sword in his hand to form a cross-shaped Sword Light.

This cross-shaped Sword Light was sharp. It easily tore apart the space that had been frozen, penetrating layer by layer until it reached the deep dark void.

CLANG!

The Swastika Buddhist Seal immediately dimmed as soon as the Sword Light hit it, and immediately, the sky-covering hand trembled and quickly shrank.

Yan Wushen’s expression turned grim. He realized that he failed to see through Zhang Ruochen’s level of cultivation. In other words, he could not figure out Zhang Ruochen’s limits.

He was absolutely powerful when his Golden Giant Mode was activated, that even a Neverwither Supreme Saint would not be able to withstand his punch. They would end up getting smashed into pieces even with their Neverwither physique.

Yet, he could not gain the upper hand in the fight against Zhang Ruochen.

If he had not practiced Golden Giant Mode, he could have gotten injured by Zhang Ruochen.

Yan Wushen had to admit that Zhang Ruochen had made progress in cultivation far greater than him in just a few months.

Yan Wushen stared at Zhang Ruochen, “On top of attaining Great Perfection in your swordsmanship, you have practiced a powerful sword technique. No swordsman below the Supreme Sainthood could outdo you. Even the unrivalled Swordgods in history would fail to defeat you if they fought you under the same cultivational rank.”

“To be able to combine Path of Dimension and Path of Time with swordsmanship at will, Zhang Ruochen, if you continue to practice, you will be on par with Saint Monk Xumi one day or even surpass him in the future.”

“It seems that I should not have given you so much time to grow after the battle between you and my evil counterpart at Luoshui.”.

Zhang Ruochen appeared very calm and composed. He said, “Yan Wushen, you can’t defeat me alone, even when you transform into an indestructible Golden Giant. So, why waste your time? You should just join hands with your evil counterpart in this fight.”

Hearing their conversation, Chi Kunlun and Yin Yuanchen looked puzzled. They did not understand the situation.

‘Good and evil counterparts? Does that mean there are two Yan Wushens?’

“Well, my cultivation process in two separate entities is almost complete now. It is indeed the time for me to merge my good and evil counterparts. I’m really glad to meet a powerful opponent like you before I reach Supreme Sainthood,” said Yan Wushen with a faint smile.

As soon as his voice trailed off, the blood-red starry sky trembled as ripples appeared in space. A tall and burly figure appeared out of thin air. He stood in the air and looked down at everyone.

This man looked exactly like Yan Wushen. However, there was an incomparably evil aura radiating from him. As though he was the essence of all sinister qualities in the world, everything turned pitch-black, including the space, wherever he passed by.

“Another Yan Wushen!”

Chi Kunlun and Yin Yuanchen were both shocked.

Yin Yuanchen examined the newly appeared Yan Wushen carefully and finally realized something. “Everyone thought that Yan Wushen was temperamental and moody, that his power would change along with his personality when he turned evil. It turns out that the one they saw was never the same Yan Wushen,” said Yin Yuanchen.

Apparently, this must be the Yan Wushen that had fought Zhang Ruochen at Luoshui.

There were secret techniques that allowed cultivators to split themselves into separate entities or avatars. For example, Way of the Three Corpses, which was listed on Taiyi Divine Techniques Rank, allowed a cultivator to cultivate three avatars.

However, Yin Yuanchen could see that Yan Wushen’s good and evil counterparts were fundamentally different from the “three corpses”.

The cultivator practicing Way of the Three Corpses could only split themselves into three entities temporarily. Each of them could not exist independently for a long time, and their thoughts were unified.

On the contrary, Yan Wushen’s good and evil counterparts were like two totally separate entities. Their personalities, power, and methods were completely different.

“One Yan Wushen alone is already on par with Zhang Ruochen. If he joins hand with the other Yan Wushen, will Zhang Ruochen have a winning chance?” Yin Yuanchen could not help but worry.

In the face of two Yan Wushens, even if the Four Heavenly Kings of the Heaven Palace were here, they would probably have to retreat.

The combined combat power of two Yan Wushens was not as simple as one plus one.

The evil Yan Wushen smiled coldly and said, “Hi Zhang Ruochen, we meet again. You have certainly made a great progress in your cultivation. You did not disappoint me.”

Zhang Ruochen could feel that the evil Yan Wushen’s strength had also improved greatly. Although he was not as strong as the good Yan Wushen, the gap was not big.

Both Yan Wushens had practiced multiple Paths, including Dimension and Origin, to the extreme. He wondered how powerful Yan Wushen would be when the two merged.

According to Pan Ruo, Yan Wushen would be able to practice the forbidden Buddhist method to Perfection once his good and evil counterparts merged. He could reach the peak of cultivation and become a legend.

“Zhang Ruochen, as you wish, I will fight you at my prime state,” said the good Yan Wushen.

As he spoke, he deactivated his Golden Giant Mode. At the same time, he retracted the Saint Aspects of Dimension and Origin Saint and turned his gaze at his evil counterpart.

In the next moment, both of them made strange hand seals at the same time. Majestic extremely bright Yama Qi and extremely dark Yama Qi surged out of them respectively.

Swoosh–

The two Yan Wushens moved at the same time. Their bodies turned into streaks of light and collided.

BANG!

A terrifying power burst out and spread in all directions. It was as if a volcano that had been silent for billions of years was erupting at this moment.

This collision was even more terrifying than the collision of two giant stars, powerful enough to destroy the world.

The extremely bright Yama Qi and the extremely dark Yama Qi were entangled together. Both Yan Wushens merged, complementing each other with yin and yang energies, forming infinite primordial energy.

In an instant, a new type of Yama Qi was born. It was dark green and had a primordial aura. It seemed to originate from the beginning of the world.

It was Yama Clan’s legendary Primordial Infernal Yama Qi. It had countless forms and uses. Since ancient times, very few people had been able to cultivate it.

Swoosh!

A stream of Precepts rushed out from Primordial Infernal Yama Qi. It was vast and mighty like a divine dragon.

There were a total of 100 million Precepts. Every single one of them was extremely sturdy and gave off a strong immortal aura. It was even stronger than many Neverwither Supreme Saints.

“100 million Precepts, how is this possible?”

Yin Yuanchen’s eyes widened. He could not believe what he saw.

The limit of the number of Precepts that a Saint King could cultivate was 100 million. However, those who could achieve it only existed in ancient legends.

At the very least, in the past 100,000 years, there had never been a talent who could cultivate 100 million Precepts at Saint Kinghood.

Being able to cultivate 100 million Precepts meant that one had reached Great Perfection in the Saint Kinghood. It was over a hundred times more difficult than cultivating a single Path to Great Perfection.

Following that, Yin Yuanchen carefully looked at the stream of Precepts. He was stunned to find Yan Wushen had cultivated ten Paths of Cultivation, including Path of Dimension and Path of Origin, to Great Perfection.

It was extremely difficult for an ordinary person to cultivate one Path of Cultivation to Great Perfection.

Yet, Yan Wushen had managed to cultivate ten Paths of Cultivations, including two Paths of the Ancients, to Great Perfection. ‘How is this possible? No one will believe it when they hear this.’
