Chapter 522: Battling a Transcendence Realm Fighter
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“What? You destroyed the Emperor Holy Tower! How is this possible?”Cao Zhengchun was utterly shocked.
The Emperor Holy Tower was a high-tier spirit weapon imbued with the Emperor’s Will. Fighters in the Spirit Devour Realm – even elite fighters in the Transcendence Realm – would find themselves unable to break free from the restraints of the tower.
For Ye Mo, being trapped in the Emperor Holy Tower did at least take some time to break free. But with the Sky Blood Spear in his hand, Hong Ling could invade the space of the Emperor Holy Tower directly and devour the tower’s weapon spirit. A spirit weapon without its weapon spirit was an empty husk, no matter how strong it was, and nothing but a pile of high-quality scrap metal.
“You rascal, looks like I’ll have to kill you myself,” Cao Zhengchun said.
He didn’t hurry into unleashing his Transcendence Golden Body, instead, he took out the Thunderous Magic Halberd, the low-tier treasure weapon that his sister, Cao Wangfei had taken from the Emperor’s treasure stores. That weapon allowed Cao Zhengchun to match Xuan Ji’s strength with strength.
Taking a huge step into the air, he struck with the Thunderous Magic Halberd. While he didn’t unleash his Transcendence Golden Body, he still displayed great strength.
“I’ll see what level of strength you’ve reached with my father’s Transcendence Golden Body,” Ye Mo said.
Facing Cao Zhengchun’s attack, Ye Mo didn’t show a shred of fear. Holding his Sky Blood Spear in one hand, he embraced the oncoming onslaught.
Dang!
The heavens and earth trembled. Even the sun in the corner of the sky seemed to be a little shaken. Just the impact wave of the two colliding was enough to bend the surrounding space.
The first clash between the mid-tier treasure weapon, the Sky Blood Spear and the low-tier treasure weapon, the Thunderous Magic Halberd caused an earth-shattering noise, the sound wave like a towering mountain collapsing and the air started to twist and bend.
Countless cracks the as wide as an arm formed in the Heaven’s Wall City Arena and spread at lightning speed. Soon the gigantic arena looked completely changed.
The collision forced both of them to take a few explosive steps back.
Facing Ye Mo’s attack without his Transcendence Golden Body, Cao Zhengchun didn’t have any advantage over him.
“To think that he’d be able to take an attack from Cao Zhengchun face on. He may not have unleashed his Transcendence Golden Body, but any attack from him can kill fighters in the Spirit Devour Realm in a matter of seconds.”
“Looks like this time, Ye Mo is the king who’s come back to reclaim his throne.”
“If Cao Zhengchun unleashes his Transcendence Golden Body, that’s the end. Fighters in the Spirit Devour Realm would never be able to defeat fighters in the Transcendence Realm.”
Onlookers remained, refusing to leave – none of them wanted to miss out on a legendary fight like this one. One of the members of the Martial Faction raced to the Qingyun League to tell Xuan Ji about Ye Mo’s reappearance.
Up in the sky, Ye Mo and Cao Zhengchun battled it out in mid-air.
“You rascal, did you really enter the Door of Desolation?” Cao Zhengchun asked in surprised with a pair of bloodshot eyes.
Entering the Door of Desolation was the only way for a fighter to improve so quickly. Ye Mo was actually able to keep up with Cao Zhengchun’s non-Transcendence Golden Body state.
“So what if I did? So what if I didn’t?” Ye Mo replied slyly, holding his Sky Blood Spear with one hand.
Now he’d felt the level of Cao Zhengchun’s strength. Even though his opponent had yet to unleash his Transcendence Golden Body, Ye Mo also had yet to reveal all of his powers – he still had an ultimate trump card that he had yet to play.
Their first clash saw both of them withholding some of their strength, a mere sparring session where neither one of them got an upper hand.
“Your strength has exceeded my expectations,” Cao Zhengchun said as he channeled a scorching heat energy within his Energy Center. Transcendence Power seeped out of his energy center. “But at the end of the day, I’m still a Transcendence Realm fighter, and you are not. You’ll never be able to defeat me.”
Boom, boom, boom!
A scorching flame rose up, piercing the air, forming a crazy wind spiral. A thirty-meter Transcendence Hellfire Battle Deity engulfed Cao Zhengchun’s body. The Transcendence Golden Body was extremely pressurizing, the gigantic whirlwind that it caused was capable of slicing any Explosive Energy Realm fighters who dared to come near it.
Everyone watching the fight took multiple steps back in fear of being embroiled into the ongoing battle.
The Hellfire Battle Deity held the Thunderous Magic Halberd with one hand. The halberd, now instilled with Transcendence Power as well, grew proportionally in size.
Whoosh!
A downward strike from the Hellfire Battle Deity sent out a huge fire wave in the air. Rumbling with thunderous authority, the fire wave attacked.
The fire wave was a genuine one, hundreds of meters wide. The force with which the halberd struck was capable of burning fighters in the Spirit Devour Realm to ashes before they could even get near it.
This time, Ye Mo couldn’t be complacent. Facing a fighter in the Transcendence Realm, he couldn’t keep up the level of nonchalance that he had displayed previously. Channeling 220,000 rays of Caged Dragon Power, the spirituality of the Sky Blood Spear exploded from within. Facing the gigantic fire wave, he shot out his attack.
Boom!
Ye Mo sliced the fire wave in half at full force. It was unthinkable.
Puff, puff, puff, puff!
Cao Zhengchun was shocked witnessing this as well as being sent into a raging fit. The Hellfire Battle Deity attacked repeatedly, sending out wave after wave of fire that crashed down on Ye Mo’s head.
This level of authority was like the raging hurricanes and the burning heavens.
“You are seeking death by fighting me,” Cao Zhengchun said.
The Hellfire Battle Deity held the Thunderous Magic Halberd and let out a thunderous roar, slashing wildly. Each layer of fire wave was imbued with Transcendence Power.
Fighters could generate stronger powers using their Energy Center upon reaching the Transcendence Realm – the Transcendence Power. Such powers were extremely deadly when infused into attacks.
“Not good.”
Against these waves of attack, Ye Mo’s face changed drastically. This brazen display of strength was extremely terrifying. With the Transcendence Golden Body able to sustain itself using the powers of the heavens and the earth, he was at a disadvantage the longer this went on.
Boom!
After deflecting a few attacks, Ye Mo decided to dodge out of the way. A fire wave dropped down from the sky like a hurricane. Landing in the center of the arena, everything in the proximity was turned into burnt waste.
“Trying to escape?” Cao Zhengchun said. “It won’t be that easy.”
Cao Zhengchun realized something as well – Ye Mo might be strong, but with the inherent realm difference, Ye Mo couldn’t match his Transcendence Golden Body no matter what.
Striking down another attack, this time unleashing a fire wave a hundred times bigger than the previous one. With mountain-burning, ocean-filling levels of dominance, if was as if the heavens had descended to the earth, and were charging straight toward Ye Mo.
That gigantic fire wave almost devoured the sun. Blocking the sunlight, everyone was shocked at the display of power.
Everyone could detect the feeling of suffocation from the attack.
“Mo’er, run! Now!” Xuan Qiu rushed over, pushing Ye Mo away.
“Auntie!”
Ye Mo’s expression changed dramatically. He hadn’t expected his own aunt to push him away. Rushing up into the sky, he sent out multiple spear light blades, each attack imbued with the Realm of Death. Like shooting stars gliding across the galaxy, the gigantic fire wave was instantly split into two, saving Xuan Qiu from the attack.
“Ye Mo is incredible,” the watching crowd erupted once again.
