Chapter 1024: Chapter 395: Dominating Martial Tongtian The surrounding matter, magic prohibition, time order, space, and even the heavenly rules and laws of the world were frozen, burned, shattered, and blasted by their powers, making everything within a ten-zhang radius around them explode into fine mustard spirit light! Zhoou Liangchen had retreated to the corner of the floor but still could not withstand the impact of the two’s Martial Intent, with his mouth and nose bleeding slightly. Little Xuanwu had also retracted its head into its turtle shell. Fortunately, at this moment, Jian Cangfeng had already flashed into place; with a wave of his hand, he pulled the distance between several people and the central battlefield back by over twenty li. He protected Zhoou Liangchen and Ji Qianqian, then gazed admiringly at Qin Muge’s figure from afar. “Unexpectedly, after Senior Year Qin slew Emperor Jilie several years ago, her Martial Arts have progressed so rapidly, even achieving Near-God Power!” No wonder Qin Muge claimed Emperor Jianyuan lacked the ability to manipulate her. The Emperor of Daning indeed was unqualified. This is presumably why Senior Qin was careless. She was not overly trusting of the court or the Emperor of Daning but rather too confident in her own strength. Jian Cangfeng then glanced sideways at Lu Luanti and Chu Xisheng, who were struggling to hold on atop the stone platform. His heart involuntarily grew with admiration, thinking Junior Brother Chu was indeed formidable. He was utterly impressed. Ji Qianqian had barely suppressed the swirling thoughts in her heart. She realized that thinking more now would do no good, instead carefully observing to see to what extent Qin Muge’s power had recovered. Ji Qianqian then displayed a thoughtful expression: “It seems Dominating Martial King’s Highness is at a disadvantage.” She noticed that although the two were fiercely confronting each other, the momentum wild and frantic, their objectives differed. Ween Zhiyi was frantically attacking, wantonly unleashing her sword power. The Dominating Martial King was defending through offense, supporting an unbreakable wall with his long spear. “It is inevitable; Senior Year has only cultivated for a brief period, a mere dozen years, hardly comparable to Ween Zhiyi’s hundreds of springs and autumns.” Jian Cangfeng shook his head. He heard that Ween Zhiyi spent most of her time asleep, self-sealed within Dark Ice to heal. However, her true age should still be over a hundred years. “Ween Zhiyi specializes in one path; her Cold Technique is at least at the thirtieth layer, Sealing technique too close to the thirtieth layer, mastery in heavenly rules far beyond Senior Year’s reach. However, the outcome of this battle is still uncertain.” Martial Intent at the thirty-second layer qualifies one for Ascension, witnessing Eternity. They have crossed the realm of Mastering Heaven and Earth, where Heaven and Man are in the same Law, approaching Unity of Heaven and Man, thoroughly blending into the heavenly rules and sharing fate with them. In fact, Martial Intent after the twenty-fourth layer becomes hard to distinctly define in layers. Yet top-tier Martial Cultivators still have this saying, representing the distance between a person and Gods. Original content can be found at novel✦fire.net Chu Yunyun’s accomplishments in heavenly rules certainly don’t surpass Ween Zhiyi. Jian Cangfeng noticed Senior mastered the strongest heavenly rule, only the twenty-fourth layer. Yet she could combine and exert various heavenly rules, displaying Near-God Level combat power. Still, it wasn’t quite enough against Ween Zhiyi. But if Senior Year kept holding out, the outcome was uncertain. Just as Jian Cangfeng’s words fell, a tremendous and fierce collision suddenly erupted between the two women. The cracks in the Divine Cloud Tower continued to expand, the ground opening up to a full three feet, tilting left and right. Countless more cracks spread outward like spider webs. The group from the Extreme East Ice City on the lower floor could not withstand it and were forced back, retreating to the first level, where they felt somewhat relieved. Ween Zhiyi deliberately restrained her power; her cold power had limited impact on them. However, Chu Yunyun’s ‘Sky Burning’ technique nearly ignited their entire beings. But right at that moment when the sword and spear collided, a glaring light suddenly flashed throughout the top level, followed by countless shattered Sword Qi and Spear Gang flying and spraying in all directions. Chu Xisheng’s expression changed, letting out a muffled groan, his whole body pierced with countless wounds. Having defeated the Canghai Stone, his combat power surged, with the Blood Vengeance Divine Blade protecting him; he should not be this disheveled. Yet now he had to use about eighty percent of his strength to protect Lu Luanti. Chu Xisheng relied on his thick skin and near-immortal Blood of Ten Thousand Ages at the fifteen layers, thus not paying much mind to these minor injuries. However, for some reason, the Sword Qi and Spear Gang that penetrated his body caused him agonizing pain. Chu Xisheng’s face involuntarily twisted, gritting his teeth. Ween Zhiyi was pushed back by the recoil force ten li away; she then lowered her head to look at a wound on her left shoulder. Chu Yunyun’s long spear surprisingly pierced through her Magic Artifact ‘Eternal Cold Armor,’ causing dark red blood to seep from within. At the wound, Chu Yunyun’s Spear Intent lingered, preventing Ween Zhiyi from self-healing and controlling the blood around the wound. Ween Zhiyi withdrew her gaze from the wound, looking at Chu Yunyun with profound wonder: “You plan to drag it out until my defeat, don’t you?” Chu Yunyun was injured too, blood ‘gurgling’ from her left leg. She was more seriously wounded, but Chu Yunyun’s Blood of Ten Thousand Ages recovering to the sixth layer was continuously restoring her blood energy. Holding her long spear firmly, she faced Ween Zhiyi without giving in: “I do intend to, Qin.” In Ween Zhiyi’s pupils, there emerged deep appreciation and awe: “Heaven Punishment! Measuring Heaven! Heaven Piercing! Divine Blade! Ten Thousand Killings! Destruction! Destruction! Eternal! Vajra! Immortal! Sky Covering! Suppressing Heaven! Sky Burning! Formless! and——Absolute Heaven!
