73: Chapter 73 Successful Breakthrough

The 19th Breakthrough challenge.

The opponent was terrifyingly powerful.

The Dao of Rules was like an ordinary tool, summoned at will.

Five Elements, elements, various major rules—

The two had only been fighting for about half an hour.

Ye Xiu had already witnessed no fewer than ten types of the Dao of Rules.

"Is this even human?"

As the number of Breakthrough challenges increased, the Guardian evolved by the Nine Realms Tower became increasingly difficult to discern.

Just like now.

The opponent was reduced to nothing more than a hazy figure.

Hum...

Sword radiance, spear radiance, saber radiance—

These three types of rules materialized, accompanied by flames that covered the sky, and blasted directly toward Ye Xiu.

Simultaneously, cold winds rose.

Tiny ice crystals, like the sharpest hidden weapons, filled the entire world.

Thunder roared and lightning flashed.

Roaring Thunder Dragons breathed out in the world.

In this world, there was not a single safe place.

"No matter who you are, I will defeat you today."

Ye Xiu gave a soft shout.

The rule of Immunity to Ten Thousand Laws once again covered the saber radiance in his hand.

Kill!

The spear radiance shattered, the sword radiance crumbled, and the flames and ice crystals all melted away.

At this moment, Ye Xiu became an invincible war god, his saber radiance swinging wide and bold.

Braving a dozen terrifying rules, he charged rapidly toward that hazy figure.

Boom... Boom...

The world was trembling.

Every slash was a clash of rules.

As time passed.

The aura of Immunity to Ten Thousand Laws was gradually weakening. Under the siege of over a dozen tyrannical rules, the saber radiance in Ye Xiu's hand had already begun to show signs of cracking.

The Martial Domain shrouding him also showed signs of being breached after countless collisions.

"Damn, what kind of monster is this, to control so many rules."

Ye Xiu felt extremely grave.

He forcibly charged at the hazy figure.

But it was like a mage with maxed-out speed; in addition to utilizing an endless stream of rules, its own speed was unimaginably fast.

No matter how he pursued it, he could not catch it.

"Damn it, if this consumption continues, I might just end up dying here."

Supreme Saber Intent was condensing.

The saber radiance in his hand was rapidly disappearing.

Silver light flashed in Ye Xiu's pupils as his right hand turned into a palm-saber and slowly raised.

This was the starting move of Zhu Xian Style.

Crack...

The thunder and fire filling the sky suddenly calmed down, no longer violent.

A supreme will, accompanied by the condensation of Zhu Xian Style, immediately caused this world to experience a brief pause.

And that hazy figure was directly locked onto, frozen above the clouds.

Above its head was an extremely magnificent composite of light beams. It was dazzling.

A rough count revealed there were as many as 15 of them.

"It really is a monster."

Ye Xiu looked at the light beams above the hazy figure's head and sighed inwardly.

The Zhu Xian Style in his hand was still only locking it down. He did not strike.

The reason he used this move was merely to lock onto the hazy figure. He wouldn't actually strike.

This move, when one lacked the ability to resist the power of Karma, was merely a method of mutual destruction.

Heavenly Emperor Fist was his true killing move.

Crack...

The moment the Fist Intent condensed, a terrifying aura immediately began to gather.

The clouds vibrated. The thunder and fire that had originally covered the sky began to crumble.

Die!

As Ye Xiu threw a punch down.

A beam of extremely vast fist radiance suddenly appeared.

Almost the instant it appeared, this terrifying fist radiance slammed into the hazy figure.

Crack... Boom...

The hazy figure was struck by the fist radiance. Not only did the rules above its head shatter, but its body also evaporated directly, without even a speck of fluorescent light left behind.

"Is this Heavenly Emperor Fist..."

Ye Xiu dispersed the Zhu Xian Style, his heart shocked by the power of the Emperor Fist.

His own Heavenly Emperor Sutra had only just been cultivated to the first level, and the Heavenly Emperor Fist he mastered only possessed the power of the first level.

This first level already had such terrifying power.

It was hard to imagine what the power of this Emperor Fist would be like if he finished cultivating the Heavenly Emperor Sutra.

It might really be able to directly shatter the Dao, causing the opponent to perish completely.

The Guardian was killed. Ye Xiu returned to the Nine Realms Tower.

His own vigorous Qi and blood dropped by about 30% after using Heavenly Emperor Fist.

That is to say, in his Peak state, he could use this terrifying Emperor Fist three times, or, if he disregarded the consequences, he could forcibly unleash it a fourth time.

Looking at the prayer mat in the hall, Ye Xiu stepped lightly and arrived on it.

As soon as he sat cross-legged, a state of clear-headed Epiphany immediately flooded his mind.

In his Sea of Consciousness, the Heavenly Emperor Sutra was flipping rapidly.

Ancient characters were no longer obscure and difficult to understand, and were quickly being comprehended by Ye Xiu.

The second level was close.

Half a day later, as the last character of the first level was thoroughly comprehended by Ye Xiu.

After a loud explosion in his Sea of Consciousness, he broke through.

Heavenly Emperor Sutra, second level.

At the same time, the final shackle in his Bloodline shattered along with the Breakthrough of the Heavenly Emperor Sutra.

Dong...

The Nine Realms Tower trembled slightly.

A ray of rosy light rushed into Ye Xiu's body from an unknown direction.

Boom...

His aura surged. His physical strength also leaped rapidly.

500,000, 900,000, 1,500,000...

Ye Xiu's Physical Body strength was unimaginably powerful.

With the Breakthrough of both his cultivation and the ancient heavenly technique, his Physical Body strength finally settled at 2,000,000 Dragons of power.

Besides that, the rule of Immunity to Ten Thousand Laws was also expanding rapidly.

Upon reaching the Void Imperial Realm, the rules were further unlocked, and many Advanced evolutions appeared completely.

Just like now. Only now was Immunity to Ten Thousand Laws qualified to be called Martial Domain.

Martial Domain erupted. Within a thousand-meter radius, it was Ye Xiu's home turf.

No matter how peerless your talent or how heaven-reaching your rules, as long as you were within the Martial Domain, you would be completely locked down, unable to turn the Dao of Rules into a means of attack.

Ten minutes later, his Realm gradually stabilized. Only then did Ye Xiu slowly stand up.

"It's a pity that I didn't encounter someone like the Young Human Emperor during this Breakthrough."

He felt a little emotional inwardly.

After cultivating the Heavenly Emperor Sutra, his combat power could truly be considered to have joined the ranks of the Peak.

Within the same Realm, even if the opponent was an imprint of a supreme powerhouse, he had the confidence to fight them.

Not a battle where he could only be forced to defend, but a fifty-fifty chance of victory!

Da da da...

Ye Xiu withdrew his thoughts and slowly walked toward the closed, ancient door.

Creak...

The door was slowly pulled open.

Before he could even walk out, the scene before his eyes immediately made Ye Xiu feel like he had fallen into an ice cave.

Outside, the headless Deity Obsession stood stiffly ten meters away.

It stood there as if it were camping out for Ye Xiu, not moving in the slightest.
