Chapter 1072 - 1071: A Battle Unmatched Through the Ages

Clang!

With Ye Qingchen's slash, the tempest that had enveloped the sky and the massive clouds that loomed across the heavens split apart in astonishment, revealing a huge sword mark!

This sword mark extended from Ye Qingchen's feet, stretching to the ends of the earth, even splitting the entire sea into two halves, leaving a scar that refused to mend!

"Rip!"

A sound of tearing resounded.

Yu Hongqing soared into the air, and the reef he had occupied for a full three months was completely split in two.

"Do you really think you can kill me!" Yu Hongqing laughed heartily, "Months ago, you edged me out with the Heaven-Slaying Immortal Sword Scripture. Now that you have lost such a Secret Technique, how will you reverse the situation?"

Yu Hongqing's feet barely touched the sea surface, leading a towering wave as he gallantly appeared like a wild dragon rising from the sea.

Meanwhile, Ye Qingchen already stood where Yu Hongqing once did, lightly raised his hand and waved. With a 'crack' sound, chains snapped, and Su Moran and Bai Ji landed gracefully.

With this sword, he even scattered the storm clouds, revealing clear skies.

"This sword..."

Everyone present was deeply shaken.

"Finally made it!"

At that moment.

Several figures rapidly landed on Star Gathering Scattered Island from afar.

Du Tingyu stood on tiptoe, gazing ahead.

Beside him, Du Gang and others also looked toward the battlefield, faces tense.

On the day Ye Qingchen emerged from the Enchanting Sea Region, he naturally brought them out as well. They had originally planned to leave, but upon hearing Ye Qingchen was heading to Star Gathering Scattered Island to fight Yu Hongqing, none could stay put and hurried over.

"Boom!"

As soon as Bai Ji landed, her body flipped, and her surging Demonic Qi erupted. In an instant, she transformed from her previous palm-sized self to a gargantuan nine-tailed Demon Fox from ancient legends that raided humanity!

And Su Moran snorted coldly, her breath like wisps of smoke swirling to the sky, enveloping the world. Even the jade bracelet on her snow-white wrist emitted a mighty light.

Such a stance.

Was evidently intending for the three to join forces against Yu Hongqing.

"They intend to join forces!"

Everyone's hearts were startled.

"A newly ascended Celestial Immortal, Su Moran! A mysteriously enigmatic nine-tailed Demon Fox! Plus the First Earth Immortal Ye Qingchen!" A Half-Step Celestial Immortal's pupils shrank, "Such a combo is enough to sweep through the Kunlun Realm!"

Witnessing this scene, everyone felt it was only natural.

After all, Yu Hongqing was too powerful; if they didn't join forces, there would be no chance of victory.

But unexpectedly, Ye Qingchen made a surprising move, reaching out his hand to stop Su Moran and Bai Ji.

In their shocked gazes, Ye Qingchen calmly said:

"Leave it to me!"

"You plan to fight me alone as an Earth Immortal?"

Yu Hongqing's eyes showed a trace of shock, seemingly unable to believe: "Who gave you the courage? Ye Qingchen, you remain as arrogant as ever, ignorant of the heavens!"

"Since that's the case, let me show you the power of a Celestial Immortal!"

"And what of a Celestial Immortal?" Ye Qingchen's expression remained unchanged.

"Haha, do you truly think that after killing Zou Ji Dao, you can contend with a Celestial Immortal?" Yu Hongqing laughed heartily, "To deal with the likes of Zou Ji Dao, why would I need to use my hands?"

He suddenly restrained his laughter, a chilling light gleaming in his eyes:

"Perfect!"

"I was worried you might be too weak and easily defeated. Even after slaying Zou Ji Dao, you could make a name for yourself throughout history. But alas, you are ultimately no match for me!"

Having said that.

Yu Hongqing raised his hand and swung.

"Rip!"

An overwhelming Power unleashed furiously. Even the raging sea was, in an instant, split into two by his swing, revealing the reef island hidden hundreds of feet beneath the seawater.

The furious winds swept wildly, flinging the spectators away.

They barely had time to get back up before looking ahead again, seeing the terrifying Power already pouring forth, surging to Ye Qingchen!

"Is this meant to obliterate Ye Qingchen in one strike?"

Everyone was in shock.

Facing this brutal force, Ye Qingchen's consciousness swept across all directions, unleashing his vast True Qi, enveloping Su Moran and Bai Ji, sending them hundreds of feet away to avoid Yu Hongqing's harm.

At the same time, facing the force alone, Ye Qingchen flipped his right hand, slowly raising his palm to strike forward.

"Boom!"

Above the East Sea, a mighty roar echoed across the waves.

Amidst the roaring explosion.

Beneath Ye Qingchen's feet, Cyan Cloud Island—once shattered by Yu Hongqing—completely sank. The terrifying residual force swept up a storm of colossal waves, spreading wildly like ten thousand galloping horses!

Yet in the next moment, Yu Hongqing's second strike arrived.

He clasped his hands together.

The waves that should have spread outward abruptly reversed, resembling a monstrous beast opening its mouth to swallow the heavens, including Ye Qingchen within this realm!

"Not good!"

Seeing this scene, Su Moran and Bai Ji simultaneously changed colors.

Under this blow, even they would likely be crushed to pieces by the seawater infused with boundless Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi!

And the spectators were even more horrified; was this the prowess of a Celestial Immortal?

"Descend!"

Facing this seawater seemingly about to devour the heavens, Ye Qingchen shouted deeply, pressing down with both hands. In an instant, the raging waves under his feet transformed into a tranquil ancient well!

"Oh?"

Yu Hongqing's expression altered slightly, eyes full of disbelief.

With the Power of Heaven and Earth to crush, anyone else would be helpless; it was precisely this way for Su Moran then! Yet unexpectedly, Ye Qingchen could block his moves twice.

"The strength of a Celestial Immortal is merely mastering a realm!" Ye Qingchen gradually stepped on the water, calmly saying, "As long as my power surpasses your realm, that's enough!"

"Haha, what a joke!"

Yu Hongqing's eyes were full of ridicule: "Human power is finite, and the heavens are infinite. I am the ruler of this realm; to surpass me is sheer folly!"

"Let's see how you oppose me!"

Finished speaking, Yu Hongqing suddenly swung his hand. Under Ye Qingchen's feet, the East Sea instantly surged with towering waves. This wave stretched thirty-nine thousand feet, even higher than the giant Zou Ji Dao created with his life force!

The terrifying Power of Heaven and Earth contained within was even more colossal!

It blocked the sky like a curtain, momentarily pausing before collapsing toward Ye Qingchen. Eight hundred miles of Spiritual Qi pressed down like a waterfall.

In an instant.

Ye Qingchen was plunged into peril!
