As dawn broke, a cacophony of voices rose within the Taixuan Immortal Sect.
The final battle of the New Empire Struggle had finally arrived.
Previously, no one could have imagined that the Flower Immortal Sect would make it into the finals.
And it was thanks to a young one-star emperor.
The final was scheduled for noon.
However, starting from dawn, many cultivators flew into the sky, searching for a good vantage point.
Noon, finally arrived.
By this time, the battle area was already crowded with people.
Even some disciples of the Taixuan Immortal Sect who were in seclusion came to watch the battle.
"Young Master Ling, go for it!"
Zhao Qingshu looked at Ling Chen and said.
Because Ling Chen had performed the Space Divine Body Void Secret Technique, Zhao Qingshu had a favorable impression of him.
Now he understood why, at their first meeting, he had regarded Ling Chen differently.
It was likely due to the Void Power on Ling Chen’s body.
Brother Gu shared the same aura.
"Then I’ll borrow Young Master Zhao’s kind words."
Zhao Qingshu said, "Young Master Ling, I have experienced Young Master Zhan’s attacks, which definitely reach the limits of three-star emperor realm. Even if you can meld into the void, you may not be able to withstand it!"
Ling Chen could meld into the void and should use Void Power to dissolve attacks.
This technique had also been performed by Brother Gu.
"Thank you for the warning, Young Master Zhao."
Ling Chen responded with a faint smile.
Always calm and unflustered.
"If you have any more tricks, try to use them early!"
Zhao Qingshu said gravely, "Young Master Zhan’s true strength has likely never been fully revealed. I feel he is hiding something; I hope you can force it out!"
Upon hearing this, Ling Chen’s expression slightly tightens, and he says, "I will give it my all."
At this moment, Zhan Hongtu looked towards Ling Chen.
"Young Master Ling, this final battle essentially depends on the two of us. Given this, how about we fight directly?"
Zhan Hongtu suggested.
Soon, the Taixuan Immortal Sect and Flower Immortal Sect completed their negotiations.
Zhan Hongtu and Ling Chen’s battle would determine the champion of the New Empire Struggle.
The crowd was even more excited upon hearing this.
Honestly, apart from Ling Chen’s battle, there was nothing worth watching.
The stronger one’s cultivation, the more likely they were to win.
Take Ling Chen, an early-stage one-star emperor, defeating three-star emperors with ease.
Green Lotus Bloodline!
Green Lotus Sword Manual!
Void Deceit Technique!
Various methods emerged one after another; if not witnessed firsthand, none would know how Ling Chen secured victory.
They also wanted to see whether Ling Chen could perform another miracle this time!
"Go, Senior Brother Zhan!"
"Go, Young Master Ling!"
"Go, Junior Brother Zhan!"
"Go, Young Master Ling!"
Symmetrical cheering echoed from the crowd.
Disciples of the Taixuan Immortal Sect surprisingly cheered for both sides.
This scene made everyone burst into laughter.
Supporting Zhan Hongtu was because they were disciples of the Taixuan Immortal Sect.
And supporting Ling Chen came from admiring his stunning performance.
Such heaven-defying talent deserved their support.
Zong Lian looked at the two standing opposite each other in mid-air and asked solemnly.
Seeing them nod, he then loudly declared, "Begin!"
After that, he quickly left the battlefield area.
Two immense battle auras simultaneously erupted from the two, sweeping across the surroundings.
At this moment, everyone widened their eyes, staring unblinkingly at them, afraid of missing any detail.
"Young Master Ling, be careful, I am a late-stage, peak emperor-grade Divine Thought Master!"
The outcome of this battle would decide six treasures and another treasure.
Therefore, he would give his all.
Moreover, this was his home ground.
In front of so many fellow disciples, he must win the championship!
"Young Master Zhan, make your move."
Ling Chen stood ready.
Zhan Hongtu nodded and wasted no more words.
A three-inch flying sword suddenly appeared and floated quietly in front of Zhan Hongtu.
"Life Chasing Soul Stealing Stab!"
Next, waves of Divine Soul Telekinesis burst forth from the Heavenly Spirit, shooting into the flying sword.
The flying sword started to expand rapidly in the wind.
In the blink of an eye, the three-inch flying sword expanded to about three zhang.
At the emperor realm, trying to attack the opponent’s Divine Soul using Divine Soul attacks was futile.
Because becoming an emperor meant becoming part of the universe.
Thus, a Divine Thought Master’s attacks shifted from Divine Soul attacks and surprise attacks to direct assaults.
Their methods gradually resembled those of spiritual power practitioners.
This ’Life Chasing Soul Stealing Stab’ was a low-tier Emperor Thought Technique.
Zhao Qingshu was defeated by this technique.
"Green Lotus Prison Peak!"
Ling Chen softly shouted.
Thousands of blue and red Sword Qi erupted from the mystic sword in his hand.
The Sword Qi swiftly coalesced into a hundred-zhang blue and red mountain peak.
Simultaneously, a small portion of Heaven and Earth Power instantly augmented it.
Zhan Hongtu roared, and the three-zhang longsword thrust fiercely towards Ling Chen.
Ling Chen guided his longsword, aiming the blue-red mountain peak at the three-zhang longsword.
The two collided thunderously. Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn novelFirｅ.net
At this moment, everyone’s gaze fixed on the point of clash.
Many even held their breath.
Eyes widened to the extreme.
Though the three-zhang longsword and hundred-zhang mountain peak differ vastly in size.
The three-zhang longsword wielded tremenduous power.
This sound echoed, with cracks appearing on the hundred-zhang mountain peak, spreading like a web to the surroundings.
Eventually, the hundred-zhang mountain peak was directly shattered by the three-zhang longsword.
"Senior Brother Zhan is too powerful, they are not on the same level at all!"
Many exclaimed in shock.
Ling Chen showed no surprise at this scene.
If a late-stage, peak three-star emperor attack lacked this power, he would seriously doubt it.
"Void Concealment Technique!"
Ling Chen moved and entered the void.
The three-zhang longsword pierced the space, entering the void too.
This sword had already locked onto Ling Chen.
Escape was impossible.
The crowd followed into the void.
Upon entering the void, the speed of the three-zhang longsword drastically reduced.
With the suppression of Void Power, the tremendous force of the three-zhang longsword diminished.
Letting the void consume a bit of the sword’s power, Ling Chen then wielded the mystic sword, with blue and red Sword Qi surging.
A single slash aimed at the three-zhang longsword.
A metallic sound rang out; Ling Chen was instantly hurled a hundred zhang.
His blood boiled fiercely.
After sending Ling Chen flying, the three-zhang longsword transformed back into a three-inch flying sword, heading out of the void.
It eventually pierced through the spatial and void barriers, returning before Zhan Hongtu.
He did not enter the void.
He just waited above the heavens.
From this strike, he knew clearly that Ling Chen indeed wasn’t his match.
Then Ling Chen could continue hiding?
At this moment, in the void, Zong Lian said, "Ling Chen, the battlefield is outside; if you hide here, it’s considered your loss."
Previously, when Ling Chen first showcased his technique, he hadn’t reacted in time.
Now, things had returned to normal.
Moreover, in their first exchange, it was evident Ling Chen was at a disadvantage.
Even if ruling Ling Chen’s defeat, others wouldn’t argue.
Soon, he returned above the heavens.
"Young Master Zhan, truly deserving of your reputation! In this case, let me show you my true skills!"
