How strong is Old Bai’s iron rod?
Li Chen cannot be certain.
But what he can be sure of is that Old Bai, who possesses hardly any special abilities, once he swings down his rod, even a Heavenly King of the sa level could be seriously injured if caught unprepared.
This was proven during the Hundred Clans Battlefield.
Even stronger opponents would suffer losses if inadequately prepared.
The Black Demon Beast Emperor is a pri example.
And at this mont, the people from the Star Palace below are caught between the two.
While Li Chen used Spatial Transference to move a group of people away, the imprisonnt of Cease Spear was completely lifted—this is Cease Spear’s weakness. But crucially, Old Bai’s iron rod also fell at that mont.
This strike could only be described as insane, for Old Bai never holds back. Even when punching Li Chen earlier, he didn’t really pull his punches, inflicting so minor injuries to Li Chen despite his Golden Body.
This particular strike was delivered with full force.
Faced with such a terrifying force that could almost collapse a small planet, the Heaven Following Realm naturally had no effect, and the Higher Heaven Realm...similarly impotent.
Even the two Zuitian Realm personal guards beside Yue Gouchen were caught off guard, their expressions turning to shock once they realized, unable to resist.
Only Yue Gouchen, at that mont, although his face changed drastically, managed to respond in ti.
"Space—Distortion!"
"Space—Tearing!"
"Space—Overlapping!"
"Giant Earth Arm!!"
In that instant, endless light burst forth from Yue Gouchen, what he wielded was none other than the Space Law!
But he seemingly felt the terror of that strike, so after intercepting with the Triple Space Law, he gathered a terrifying Giant Earth Arm using Earth Rule, which wildly swung towards that iron rod.
"Crack, crack, crack..."
In the air, space shattered and broke layer by layer under the strike of the iron rod, resembling glass, with occasional black cracks appearing, erupting with terrifying suction force, even so less sturdy trees around being drawn in at that mont.
Yet Yue Gouchen protected all those around him, valiantly opposing this sky-supporting strike with his own power.
When the iron rod swept away all spatial barriers, that gigantic Earth Arm stretched to the sky, tightly clutching a fist, colliding with the iron rod.
As if two teorites in the Starry Sky collided, endless brilliance illuminated the entire Remnant Cloud Forest at this mont.
Even though it was dayti, at this mont, countless Martial Artists yet to leave Remnant Cloud Forest witnessed the astonishing spectacle.
"Clang!!"
For the first ti, Bai Shi’s iron rod was forcibly repelled.
Though that swing shattered the gigantic Earth Arm, similarly, the iron rod was blown away, causing Bai Shi to be hurled far, far away.
"Puff!!"
In the backward flight, Bai Shi suddenly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
"Old Bai!"
Li Chen’s face twisted, after setting down a group of people, imdiately pursued Bai Shi, countless layers of spatial power cushioned behind Bai Shi, dissipating the force.
Finally, Li Chen fiercely slapped Bai Shi on the back, bringing Bai Shi to a stop.
anwhile, a slight ’snap’ sounded from Li Chen’s arm bones, with blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.
Keep in mind, he is now in the Golden Body Realm!
Yet even the slightest ripple of recoil force could injure him.
At this mont, Li Chen truly felt the terror of Yue Gouchen.
"Old Bai! Domain!"
Bai Shi said nothing, that earlier hit indeed hurt him, additionally, he now understood what enemy he faced.
This was no opponent to be taken lightly!
"Power!"
"Selflessness!" At this mont, Li Chen expanded his domain, rging with Bai Shi’s domain.
Because at this mont, Yue Gouchen also soared to the sky.
"Riftland Domain!"
Yue Gouchen’s expression remained calm, swiftly responding in nearly no ti.
Watching the two attack, Yue Gouchen couldn’t help but feel his heart beat faster.
He doesn’t recognize Bai Shi, but he recognizes Li Chen!
How long has it been?
Several decades? Ten-odd years?
Or just a few years?
The kid once so insignificant, now has beco such a formidable force?
As for Li Chen’s cultivation speed, Yue Gouchen knows it full well.
According to intelligence he received, when Li Chen first appeared in Baiyue City, he hadn’t even reached the Mid-Heaven Realm!
Later, upon erging from Remnant Cloud Forest, he was already in the Mid-Heaven Realm!
His next trace was found in a small town gathering Loose Cultivators, where townsfolk claid he had reached the Envy Heaven Realm!
And now, after a few years, he reappears, already at the Higher Heaven Realm? Moreover, a Heavenly King?!
To Yue Gouchen, this seems unimaginable, he in his life had never seen a cultivation speed monster like this. Though he heard so top-level Star Continents also harbored so prodigy freaks, they erged under the nurturing of powerful figures.
How could an ordinary Loose Cultivator have such a strong nurturer?
"It’s that thing, it must be that thing!!" Yue Gouchen’s chest suddenly burned with excitent.
In his eyes, the Book of Daoist Laws is undoubtedly more useful than any treasure!
The pursuit of magic treasures is not very high in the Heaven Realm. Martial Artists of the Heaven Realm believe that the key to strength lies within themselves.
And the Book of Daoist Laws is undoubtedly a key to the path of ultimate power.
How could Yue Gouchen not be excited, how could he not be thrilled?
"Mine! That’s mine!!" A wild roar erupted in Yue Gouchen’s heart as his domain clashed fiercely with the domains of Li Chen and Bai Shi.
"Boom!!"
The space silently shattered, and the three of them shuddered almost simultaneously.
The domain is also part of oneself; when the domain is damaged, the person will also be injured. At the mont when the domains collided, all three spat blood from their mouth and nose.
However, Yue Gouchen’s condition was clearly much better than Li Chen and Bai Shi. As Li Chen and Bai Shi retreated, he directly appeared in front of them.
"Teleportation!"
Li Chen’s expression changed, and he imdiately pulled Bai Shi to teleport away.
But Yue Gouchen imdiately pursued them again.
Because he was also an expert in Space Law!
"Teleportation!"
"Teleportation!"
No matter where Li Chen teleported, Yue Gouchen would catch up imdiately. And since Li Chen was carrying soone and his cultivation was not as high as Yue Gouchen’s, it was likely only a matter of ti before they were caught.
As long as Yue Gouchen calculated his teleportation position once in advance, it would be enough!
"Tele... Old Bai!!" Yet another teleportation attempt, Li Chen saw Yue Gouchen appear once more, ready to continue his pursuit. He was halfway through forming his hand seal but suddenly changed his mind.
"Got it!"
Bai Shi finally caught his breath. This strike, a long-prepared one, ca unexpectedly and carried a fierce roar, heavily smashing towards Yue Gouchen.
Yue Gouchen’s expression also changed. He had made up his mind to pursue them to the end, knowing that even if he couldn’t catch up to Li Chen, he would eventually catch up through sheer True Yuan. He didn’t expect this guy to back out after only a few teleports.
"Bastard!" Yue Gouchen cursed angrily, but there was nothing he could do. At such close range, he didn’t have much ti to react.
With a pinch of his ring, a diamond-shaped crystal shield appeared in front of Yue Gouchen.
And at this ti, Bai Shi’s iron rod ca crashing down.
"Clang!!!"
A deafening noise erupted, almost piercing to the eardrums.
Bai Shi stumbled, nearly being blown away again, but was caught by Li Chen.
Yue Gouchen also withdrew his diamond-shaped crystal shield with a stern face. He clearly saw two glaring cracks appear on that shield, and it seed that even if it wasn’t completely destroyed, it was almost so.
"Teleportation!"
Without wasting words, Li Chen pulled Bai Shi and continued to flee.
There was no choice; in a head-on confrontation, they were at an absolute disadvantage. The domain collision earlier was proof enough that even together, he and Bai Shi were no match for Yue Gouchen.
Seeing Yue Gouchen catch up quickly again, Li Chen’s expression changed as he prepared to change places once more.
"Tele..."
"Imprison!"
However, before Li Chen could execute his teleportation, Yue Gouchen struck first.
The spatial imprisonnt wasn’t very strong, and even Li Chen could easily break it, but crucially, his teleportation was interrupted by it.
And Yue Gouchen imdiately attacked.
"Star Shattering Fist—Collapsing Jade!!"
Li Chen clearly saw that at this mont, Yue Gouchen’s arm had bizarrely turned to jade, with strange silver lights flickering within. The power of the heavens and earth around them seed to be absorbed by this fist at that mont.
At that mont, this fist seed to be the center of the universe!
But that wasn’t the key; the key was that Li Chen slled the scent of death at that mont!
"Old Bai, fight with all you’ve got!" Li Chen roared wildly, simultaneously unleashing his True Yuan to the extre.
"Cease Spear!!"
"Buzz~~"
Yue Gouchen’s fist paused weirdly in mid-air.
At this mont, Bai Shi also let out a wild howl and soared into the sky, transforming into a Sky-Supporting Giant Ape. The iron rod in his hand once again beca a sky-supporting pillar.
"Extre Power—Heaven Collapsing Strike!!"
In truth, Bai Shi’s strength was formidable, but he had only so many moves. Yet, this ti, he truly used the utmost power he could exert, a force he had only used once amidst the starry sky. That ti, he had singlehandedly held back three Daluo Golden Immortals!
And this ti, it was a rod against a fist!
As the two sides were about to collide, behind Li Chen, six beads emitting a black luster suddenly appeared, spinning continuously behind him. Li Chen’s fist was clenched tightly, ready to strike at any mont.
But at this mont, a thunderclap exploded in the sky once more.
This thunderclap was more terrifying than before.
If the previous one was a muffled thunder, this one was a true exploding thunder!
Not only did people in the Nanxiang Prefecture hear it, but even those in several surrounding prefectures heard the thunder.
Outside the Earth Prison Star Continent, a shuttle-shaped spaceship slowly descended. Dao Lan Heavenly King, who had just disembarked, heard the thunder and his expression changed suddenly, looking sharply in the direction it ca from.
And in a neighboring prefecture next to Nanxiang Prefecture, in an ordinary city, a woman with a clearly dignified appearance but unusually lively deanor was nibbling on a string of Sugar-Coated Hawthorn, joyfully wandering the streets. After the thunder, she also suddenly looked up towards the direction of the Remnant Cloud Forest.
"Sothing... big has happened."
