Chapter 2020 - 1531~1532: Breakthrough to the Breakthrough Realm! Life or Death?

Time seemed to slow down immeasurably, the ground surrounding him fracturing and sinking, slowly collapsing, while dust ascended into the air, gradually spreading...

Two figures could be seen spinning together within a distorted temporal light sphere.

It was as if two luminous celestial bodies with immense gravitational pull were rotating, as if overturning the entire space of heaven and earth, causing an upheaval. The ground shattered, massive stones soared toward the sky, the sky inverted, dark clouds galloping like thousands of wild horses charging towards the earth.

The originally solid space, influenced by this, began to become even more chaotic. Occasionally, it revealed scenes from within the Human Emperor Tower, sometimes showing Dugu Qiubai fighting fiercely with other powerful beings as if separated by another space.

And yet, between the two at the center, though they were ’slowly’ drawing closer, it seemed as though they were separated by vast time-space, unable to harm or touch each other.

In truth, if anyone dared to rashly approach the bodies of the two, they would be devoured and torn apart by that colossal space distortion force.

The two were like true incarnations of a Chaotic Hole devouring everything, yet somehow unable to affect each other.

"Space like water... Space like water, this is the Realm of seeing mountains not as mountains, seeing water not as water!

A drop of water is a space, a droplet shattered into countless water molecules is still worlds, an ocean is even more worlds, this is water!"

Jiang Dali was already in a special state of Primordial State, his Heart Realm like water, his understanding and comprehension of space was profound, as deep as water.

But he also knew well that his current power made it impossible to maintain this state for long, nor could he possibly last longer than the Emperor.

When he could no longer hold on, defeat would be the only path left.

Breakthrough—

At this very moment, only a breakthrough could suffice!

No breaking, no establishing!

Jiang Dali let out a low shout, suddenly taking a step forward.

Immediately, ripples appeared under his feet, and the Emperor, like a small sun across from him, suddenly seemed trapped in an amber magnifying glass, his figure like layers upon layers of shrinking mirror surfaces, becoming incredibly distant.

"That is—"

Jiang Dali instantly understood that the Emperor appearing on this eighth floor of the Human Emperor Tower was actually an embodiment manifested by the Emperor, who was in seclusion on the Ninth Floor, using formidable willpower.

He only needed to break the space constructed around this embodiment and breach the spatial distance between them to approach the Emperor.

"Emperor!!"

His heart trembled slightly, containing extremely strange and frenzied excitement amidst intense shock. Seizing the moment while the ripples beneath his feet had not yet dissipated, he bent and stretched his arms, his entire body suddenly bursting with astonishing flames. In the Insight State, his willpower refined to the Proton Level erupted from his eyes.

"Tear it open for me!!"

Boom! Boom!—

From his eyes burst two blinding beams of golden Extreme Light, instantly piercing into the Emperor’s flames, directly tearing open the outermost space, rushing toward the distant Emperor.

Almost simultaneously, his figure transformed into light, frantically charging into the torn-open space.

In the view of the outside world, it seemed as if Jiang Dali’s figure suddenly turned into a streak of crimson light, directly traversing into the flames that opened a gap outside the Emperor’s body.

Swish, swish, swish—

In no time, Jiang Dali charged into an overlapping space channel full of vibrant colors resembling a wormhole, and his body seemed to begin elongating and flattening.

The ferocious spatial compression and twisting force surrounding his body pressed in, as if about to flatten him into a thin sheet of paper.

At the far end of the passage ahead, a majestic figure sat with his back to him, exuding waves of terrifying pressure dominating the universe.

With just a moment’s advance, Jiang Dali felt he had at least reached five times the speed of sound, in this extremely thin air space, even starting to smoke from friction.

In a single breath, he had traversed nearly two kilometers of distance, yet the feeling of distance to the figure ahead seemed to never change.

"Once again, a space-folding technique like the Emperor’s Seal..."

Jiang Dali felt his heart sink, the spatial ripples wrapped around him completely vanished, and unparalleled weight from all directions suddenly pressed in. His extraordinary Spiritual Sense allowed him to immediately detect the deformations happening to his body, so he unhesitatingly took another step forward.

A wave of ripples instantly emerged from his feet, and the super-strong Insight State once again surfaced. The surrounding distorted and oppressive space was immediately resisted by the powerful willpower bursting from his eyes.

Half a breath!

Jiang Dali looked towards that seemingly infinitely distant figure of the Emperor, under his substantial golden glare, the substantial state of the surrounding fluctuating space once again clearly manifested, as though reflected by a magnifying glass, the perception of distant space immediately shortened.

The silhouette which appeared extremely distant, shrunken multiple times, also had its distance instantly shortened, yet it remained like ’thick glass,’ visible but out of reach.

This is the Emperor’s power, this is—the power of space!

A breath had passed.

The ripples under his feet quickly contracted, the substantial state of the surrounding space began to blur again.

"Break!!!!"

Jiang Dali suddenly let out a fierce yell, slowly thrusting out a punch, the fist’s edge radiating Golden Light, a terrifying Fist Intent as domineering over the universe as the Emperor’s, shattered through space, and struck hard upon the space like ’thick glass.’

"Crack!—"

Suddenly the space before him caved in, emanating a strong Absorption Force.
