Chapter 978: A Single Glance, and the Martial Dao Road is Endless

Immediately following, Chen Fazheng forcibly reined in all of his turbulent emotions.

"The outside world, you... do you truly not care?"

Chen Fazheng's voice was strained:

"Once Chen Yuan goes, he will kill everyone in the outside world, he will kill your avatar.

He is already the new Master of the Martial Dao!"

At this moment, there was no longer any questioning in Chen Fazheng's tone.

It was even a query laced with a trace of trembling.

Seeing Chen Yan look over, Chen Fazheng instinctively lowered his head.

"I said, it is not important."

Chen Yan chuckled aloud:

"The life and death of humans is also a rule; what I must become is the master of all rules.

I can make time flow backward, I can make the dead return to life."

Chen Yan stood with his hands behind his back, casting a single glance toward the outside world:

"Furthermore, it will not be difficult for Li Zhiyi to defeat the current Chen Yuan."

Chen Yan's thoughts stirred.

At this moment.

He directly opened the connection between himself and Li Zhiyi.

Previously, Chen Yan had been single-mindedly comprehending the Dao and had directly severed the connection with his newborn body.

This had resulted in an information gap between the newborn body and Chen Yan, the original self.

But looking at it now, everything was developing in a positive direction.

Chen Yuan had created a new Martial Dao.

For the human race amidst the apocalypse, this might not be a good thing.

But for Chen Yan, it was absolutely a good thing.

At the same time.

The outside world.

The Martial Dao rules belonging to the Path of True Intent manifested above the Qiong Heaven.

Endlessly profound, infinitely beautiful.

"To think that even the Path of True Intent has been completely negated."

The Master of Elements, in a fairy dress, gazed at the sky, her face deathly pale at this moment.

Two of the three auxiliary Martial Daos had been reshaped and modified by some indescribable existence.

This was undoubtedly a shock to the human race.

To completely negate humanity upon the very Dao they were most proud of.

"I have reached the Ninth Rank."

Xia Hanzhou's voice came, filled with a sense of melancholy.

No one cared.

At this moment, across the entire world, countless people gazed at the firmament.

"Why, why did it come to this?"

"Could it be that my cultivation of True Intent was wrong?"

"Why tell me the true Path of True Intent only now!"

"Hahahaha, so it was always a joke; my human race has always been a joke!"

One voice after another rose up.

Some broke down, some laughed wildly, some despaired.

True martial artists spend their lives seeking the Dao; to hear the Dao in the morning, one may die content in the evening.

Yet, now a new Path of Arrays appeared, a new Path of True Intent appeared.

The martial artists could only watch, could only feel the profoundness within.

In the dark, one could hear that unknown existence speak indifferently:

"You are all wrong."

To those single-mindedly devoted to the Dao, this was like a death blow.

Even a supreme existence like Xia Zhiyang felt a sense of shock.

"Chen Yan, what is your take on this?"

Jiang Yuan, who had already fitted mechanical legs, flew to Li Zhiyi's side and asked with some confusion:

"Do you think it is okay for me to re-cultivate the Path of Arrays and True Intent now?"

Jiang Yuan had changed from his usual demeanor; at this moment, he was actually somewhat lost.

He was a genius.

He used to be the most monstrous genius of the Great Xia.

He cultivated five Daos.

If all Martial Daos were to be modified and redefined just like the Path of Arrays and True Intent,

then what did that make him, Jiang Yuan?

Thoroughly trash from the old era?

However, at this moment, Li Zhiyi stood calmly, chaotic streams of light emerging from the depths of his eyes.

The memories belonging to Chen Yan were connecting with Li Zhiyi.

That vast Martial Dao truth was being poured directly into the depths of Li Zhiyi's brain in a manner akin to irrigation.

The path of the newly born True Intent and the path of formations were being rapidly mastered by Li Zhiyi.

Only.

At this moment, Jiang Yuan looked at Li Zhiyi being so silent, but his expression changed slightly, and he whispered:

"I know you are also confused, but you should at least pretend; everyone is looking to you for cues."

Li Zhiyi remained unmoved, still receiving the irrigation of memories.

Someone looked at Li Zhiyi, and seeing Li Zhiyi was also so sluggish, their heart sank in an instant.

When people are at their most confused, what they most want to find.

Is a leader.

A powerful and confident leader.

The current leader of the Great Xia and Yu Province is naturally Li Zhiyi.

But the appearance Li Zhiyi was showing at this moment made countless people's hearts heavy.

They were not disappointed.

They were desperate.

If even Chen Yan would be so shocked upon seeing the new rules.

Does that not mean.

That the existence who created the new formations and the new True Intent Martial Dao is a terrifying existence that even Chen Yan dares not face directly?

Countless people felt sorrow in their hearts.

They began to wander in uncertainty.

Above Yu Province.

The flames of war had already ceased.

One by one, the Great Xia powerhouses surrounded the powerhouses of the Five Clans.

It was just that the Great Xia side was silent, and the Five Clans side was even more bitter.

Chen Youqing's face was covered in blood, controlled by the Grand Minister of Rites with the Star Ruler.

Her face was full of grief, looking at Li Zhiyi from afar, and at this moment, she actually smiled bitterly and bowed:

"The people I, Chen Youqing, have admired in my life, apart from my father, are Honorable Chen Yan."

Chen Youqing's eyes were full of bitterness:

"Losing to Honorable Chen Yan today, my Five Clans have no grievances; I hope Honorable Chen Yan can, for the sake of us both being human,

execute us and be done with it, do not incite the flames of war again!"

Chen Youqing lowered her head, her body bowing down.

All the Five Clans powerhouses saw this scene, and all were bitter.

"May Honorable Chen Yan spare the commoners of my Five Clans!"

"We have already lost; the defeated eat dust, if we die then we die, do not seek revenge anymore."

"Hahaha, the ten-thousand-year foundation of my Five Clans is gone today!"

"Chen Yan, I know you are fierce and cruel; if you want to kill, then kill us, do not persecute the commoners anymore."

Li Zhiyi did not reply.

"Chen Yuan is not dead."

Lu Xunyang's voice was low.

The expressions of the Yu Lord and the Lord of Elements were extremely ugly.

Lu Xunyang only gave a reminder, and they immediately sensed the gray fog world created by 【Unity】.

But they saw something they absolutely did not want to see.

That was, the seat belonging to Chen Yuan was not falling but rising instead.

"What exactly did he do?" The Lord of Elements' voice was extremely cold.

"I don't know." Xia Hanzhou shook his head:

"But he shouldn't dare to appear for a while."

The parts on the Yu Lord's body were trembling continuously.

His mood at this moment was bad to the extreme.

Now, the Great Xia appeared to have won.

In reality, bad news arrived one after another.

"Chen Yan." Xia Hanzhou habitually asked Li Zhiyi.

But he saw that Li Zhiyi was still standing there, motionless, as if sluggish.

The Yu Lord, the Lord of Elements, and Xia Zhiyang looked at each other, their expressions extremely heavy.

Li Zhiyi would not be scared to this extent.

But Li Zhiyi must have sensed something even more terrifying.

Xia Hanzhou frowned as he watched this scene.

The next instant.

Boom!

The pressure belonging to the Ninth Rank instantly overflowed.

All the Five Clans powerhouses had difficult expressions.

"Now my Great Xia has one more supreme powerhouse!"

"You have no room for negotiation!"

Xia Hanzhou's voice was resonant and grand.

"Xia Yuan!"

Xia Hanzhou barked, but no one replied.

"Xia Yuan!!!" Xia Hanzhou spoke again, erupting with Ninth-Rank pressure.

Boom!

Above the firmament, a spear soul appeared, blotting out the sky and sun.

"Present."

Xia Yuan pursed his lips and arrived beside Xia Hanzhou:

"King Xiayue, please give your orders."

Xia Hanzhou glanced sideways at Xia Yuan:

"Keep a close watch on these captives from the Five Clans for me!"

"King Xiayue, I am severely injured."

Xia Yuan said speechlessly; both of his arms were currently broken, and blood was flowing ceaselessly.

Xia Hanzhou frowned.

Xia Yuan hurriedly said:

"Yes!"

Xia Hanzhou looked toward the firmament:

"It is a pity that Chi Gan never appeared."

Murderous intent surfaced in the depths of his eyes.

In the past, he and Chi Mi were harmed by Chen He and Chi Gan.

During his ascension, Xia Hanzhou had been waiting for Chi Gan to appear.

Above the firmament.

The newly born rule of true intent gradually dissipated.

Xia Hanzhou's eyes were extremely complex.

He was also very bewildered.

Having achieved the Ninth Rank, he had ended up seeing such an inconceivable situation.

A martial path could actually be denied by someone to this extent.

The only one capable of doing this was perhaps the Mother God, who had long since left the human world.

His Ninth-Rank self was not even worth mentioning in front of the Mother God.

Yet, in the next moment.

A palpitation suddenly emerged from Chen Yuan's heart.

Murderous intent!

An unrivaled murderous intent suddenly tore through the long sky, hovering just an inch from Xia Hanzhou's body like a world-destroying torrent.

Xia Hanzhou's pupils contracted wildly, and he instantly scanned his surroundings.

"Who?!"

Xia Zhiyang instantly shouted, the Qi and blood within his body exploding with a roar.

"Come out!"

The mechanical parts all over the Universe Lord's body whirred frantically, and throughout the entire Universe Province, cannon barrels that were still smoking began to tremble, attempting to lock onto the powerful enemy.

"Xia Hanzhou, having become a Ninth-Rank, are you happy?"

A cold voice rang out.

Xia Hanzhou's body instantly stiffened.

Rumble!

The surrounding heaven and earth shook violently, the universe overturned, and the phantoms of the sun and moon swayed frantically in Xia Hanzhou's pupils, appearing as if they were about to shatter and fall.

"Father!"

Chen Youqing was suddenly shocked, a look of joy appearing on his face.

"It is the voice of the Chen Lord!"

"Chen Yuan, I know it is you!"

Lu Xunyang's voice was heavy.

At the same time.

The Element Lord, the Universe Lord, and Xia Zhiyang all erupted with their full combat power.

"Hahahaha!"

Above the firmament, the Chi Lord appeared, laughing repeatedly.

"Chen Yuan, you truly are the most extraordinary person in the world!"

The next instant.

Rumble!

Above the distant sea, a stream of light flew over rapidly.

It was fast to the extreme, carrying an unparalleled spirit.

Chen Yuan's figure moved, like a stream of light piercing through heaven and earth, traversing hundreds of thousands of miles of sky.

Wherever it passed, the vast ocean below roared and exploded, with hundreds of millions of tons of seawater surging into the sky, transforming into an endless wall of water!

As the waves churned, the sound of the tides shook the nine heavens; atop the crests, golden light and profound black intertwined, suppressing the wind and clouds, dimming the sun and moon.

Powerful!

"Lord Chen is invincible!"

Experts from the five clans roared aloud.

"Invincible!"

"Invincible!"

"Invincible!"

Countless cheers rang out; all the experts of the five clans, who had previously been incomparably desolate, instantly erupted with pressure, welcoming their king!

"So strong!"

"What on earth did he do!"

The voices of the Universe Lord and the Element Lord turned hoarse.

At this moment, Chen Yuan possessed boundless spirit!

"Li Zhiyi!" Xia Hanzhou hurriedly spoke up.

Everyone looked at Li Zhiyi, only to see Li Zhiyi still standing blankly, motionless.

"This..."

Lu Xunyang and Xia Zhiyang frowned simultaneously and pressed forward together.

But at this moment, even they could feel that Lord Chen was different.

A strength far exceeding the past.

Chen Yuan's expression was icy to the extreme.

"It is time to end this."

He murmured, and the next moment his gaze locked onto Li Zhiyi.

"Chen Yan, it is time to end this."

Chen Yuan's voice was complex, and then his expression was covered in ice.

"If you cannot surpass me, Chen Yuan, you have no ability to face the Ancient Gods!"

Chen Yuan's eyes suddenly erupted with golden light, with the rules belonging to the new Martial Dao flowing in the depths of his pupils.

And at this very instant.

That previously motionless Li Zhiyi slowly turned his head and cast a sidelong glance toward Chen Yuan.

In a split second.

Li Zhiyi's crimson eyes suddenly fixed, and thousands of Martial Dao rules flowed within his pupils, like a galaxy hanging upside down, chilling and intimidating.

Chen Yuan's pupils instantly constricted.

The next instant.

A figure had already appeared before him.

A speed that transcended the ordinary Martial Dao.

Arriving suddenly.

Those scarlet eyes carried indifference and killing intent.

In an instant, they locked eyes with Chen Yuan.

Between heaven and earth.

There was not a sound.
