Ye Chen stood in the void, left hand gripping the Compliant Golden-Hooped Rod, right hand wielding the Heavenly Emperor Sword. The mont he grasped them, they fully activated, their auras erupting.
The Compliant Golden-Hooped Rod on the left radiated overwhelming battle intent, as if it were the most terrifying weapon of slaughter in heaven and earth. In an instant, it felt like an ancient battlefield had descended.
The Heavenly Emperor Sword on the right exuded imperial majesty, like an ancient immortal lord revived.
The man's legs trembled, an involuntary urge to kneel washing over him. Ye Chen, still at Unity, had fully activated Extre Dao Weapons. There was only one explanation. He had cultivated the Armant Secret. Only the Armant Secret, one of humanity's supre divine arts, allowed a cultivator to wield Extre Dao Weapons a realm early.
Under the threat of death, the man didn't hesitate, summoning his own Extre Dao Weapon from his brow. It was a spear, gleaming with immortal gold. Divine patterns covered it, carrying an aura of unstoppable force, as if one thrust could pierce the heavens.
The man gripped the spear tightly. But his heart remained gripped by fear.
Facing Ye Chen—left hand Compliant Golden-Hooped Rod, right hand Heavenly Emperor Sword—he had no confidence. Not just in himself, but in the Extre Dao Weapon he'd poured years of effort into forging. He even worried it might shatter on impact. And one thing baffled him. Even with the Armant Secret, it should only barely allow early activation of an Extre Dao Weapon. How did Ye Chen make it look effortless? Activating two at once?
Sothing was wrong—very wrong. He had no fighting spirit left, even more panicked than before. But he couldn't let Ye Chen see that.
Forcing calm, he said casually, "Your foundation is truly astonishing, but at Unity, you can't perfectly control Extre Dao Weapons. And they consu imnse energy. How long can you sustain two? I was only sent here by the Dao Lineage. I have no real grudge against you. Can we each take a step back and end this fight? The Devouring Dao Lineage sent so many to kill you, clearly holding a deep grudge. But finding them for revenge will be hard. They have no hall; everyone, like , cos from various holy lands and factions. But if I return, I can help you uncover more identities, work with you to uproot the Devouring Dao Lineage—this cancerous tumor—completely…"
…
Across from him, Ye Chen, holding two Extre Dao Weapons, felt invincible.
The reason he could activate both simultaneously? Simple: he was too strong. His foundation was too deep. Back in mid-Unity, he could already use them. But it was too shocking, and foes like Alkaid Holy Son weren't worthy of him revealing such power. So he kept them as trump cards.

As for energy consumption? He'd tested it before—it was negligible. With his foundation, he could wield Extre Dao Weapons from here to Central Continent and back without issue.
But the man's final words made Ye Chen chuckle. A Devouring Dao Lineage mber calling their own group a tumor?
That was interesting.
Ye Chen looked at the man, shaking his head regretfully. "I already know who the true successor of the Devouring Dao Lineage is… no need for you!"
The man's eyes widened, frantically shouting, "That's not the true successor, it's a fake—"
But as he spoke, Ye Chen's aura exploded, boundless blood qi surging skyward. His entire being seed to ignite. The man, pouring everything into his attack, thrust his golden spear at Ye Chen. The spear, carrying a majestic aura, pierced countless layers of void in an instant. In a thousandth of a mont, its tip reached Ye Chen's brow.
Clearly, the man sensed Ye Chen's resolve—he wouldn't let him leave. So he chose to fight to the death. Such a being wouldn't just wait for death. But as the spear neared Ye Chen's forehead, the Heavenly Emperor Sword trembled lightly.
Imperial majesty flowed, emitting a chilling ripple. The spear, capable of piercing all creation, halted half a centiter from Ye Chen's brow, unable to advance further.
Ye Chen raised his other hand. He'd planned to smash the spear with the Compliant Golden-Hooped Rod, but fearing it might shatter it, he held back. The Heavenly Emperor Sword suppressed the spear.
Gripping the Compliant Golden-Hooped Rod, Ye Chen used the Movent Secret and charged at the man. Mid-flight, he raised the Compliant Golden-Hooped Rod high.
Endless slaughter force surged, roiling the heavens. Golden light blazed from the staff, crashing down toward the man. The man, terrified, unleashed tallic divine light from his body. Boundless nether qi ford a domain to block the strike.
But before a peak Extre Dao Weapon, it was futile. As the Compliant Golden-Hooped Rod fell, the domain shattered. The next mont, it smashed into the man's head. His body was strong, but it ant nothing now. In unwillingness and despair, he exploded into a cloud of blood mist.
The entire grand formation shook, as if it might collapse. Ordinary Mahayana cultivators lacked the ability to regenerate from a drop of blood. Especially when slaughter force swept through, purifying the blood mist. The man was utterly dead.
Satisfied, Ye Chen glanced at his Heavenly Emperor Sword and Compliant Golden-Hooped Rod. Then he turned to the spear. It was a newly forged Extre Dao Weapon, far inferior to the Heavenly Emperor Sword or Compliant Golden-Hooped Rod, used by immortals. But still valuable.
Ye Chen didn't care for it himself, but it was perfect as a gift. When trapped in battle, he'd seen Fan Qinghe rushing to his side without hesitation. With her strength, she'd be useless if he couldn't win—they'd die together.
But her attitude pleased him. Plus, her consistent critical hits. She was clearly a good woman. This spear would be perfect for Fan Qinghe, who was nearing Mahayana. It might even trigger another immortal artifact critical hit.
With that thought, Ye Chen reached for the spear. Extre Dao Weapons had their own spirituality. Sensing his action, the spear trembled, emitting waves of terrifying aura. It was expressing discontent, urging Ye Chen to back off.
But Ye Chen didn't move. The Heavenly Emperor Sword and Compliant Golden-Hooped Rod rose automatically. Their auras pressed down. The spear instantly quieted.
Ye Chen, satisfied, grasped it. Using the Armant Secret, he erased its imprint in monts, turning it into an unclaid Extre Dao Weapon.
