Chapter 863: Chapter 34: Battle Against Jiang He
Jiang He’s attitude was not good, but Zhou Yan felt a strange sense of familiarity with this person.
Especially the tone in which the other spoke, it was as if they had met somewhere in the mysterious depths of the void, but this feeling was fleeting. By the time Zhou Yan attempted to delve into it, it had already vanished completely.
Zhou Yan calmed his mind, and in the face of Jiang He’s cold inquiry, Zhou Yan’s attitude remained as indifferent as water: "I think if it’s just a meaningless spar, a mere Dao body is already sufficient. Given my current condition, you should be able to see that with my current injuries, one move is already enough to prove my ability."
Zhou Yan, neither arrogant nor submissive, still exuded the noble aura of an immortal soul when facing Jiang He, akin to the pride Jiang Tianling displayed when facing the cultivators of the Sword Burial Ancestor Star.
This aura was enough to make Jiang He serious.
Jiang He scrutinized Zhou Yan but couldn’t detect anything special. Zhou Yan’s realm seemed less than perfect, yet his soul indeed emitted an aura of energy akin to an almost-immortal evil soul, something that couldn’t be faked.
In this world, almost anything can be faked, but the realm of the soul cannot be altered by any falsehood. The soul is the foundation of immortality, which can’t be disguised as stronger, only weaker.
For this reason, Jiang He became serious.
"Alright, then take this move!"
Jiang He stared at Zhou Yan’s Dao body, no longer underestimating him in the slightest, and his previous displeasure was certainly not genuine. At this level, one’s mind and other aspects have reached the pinnacle, and emotions are no longer displayed on the face,
...
In the Star River, a pitch-black spear suddenly appeared in Jiang He’s hand.
It’s indescribable what kind of spear it was, but this black and cold spear exuded a terrifying aura of devouring and annihilation.
This was an existence that seemed extremely close to an Immortal Weapon, lacking the level of a Venerable, yet not reaching immortality.
The spear, however, was chilling and fierce, making one’s heart tremble.
With the spear in hand, a cold and sorrowful aura suddenly permeated between heaven and earth.
At that moment, Jiang He moved. He abruptly lifted the spear and ferociously attacked Zhou Yan’s Dao body.
"Puff--"
A sharp black light shot out, instantly like the reversal of the Star River, pierced through with one thrust.
Zhou Yan’s derivation of the Dao body was hit almost instantly at the head, the head of the Dao body exploded directly, almost without any resistance, it was obliterated instantly.
But in this instant, the shattered Dao body suddenly reconvened, with a white light flying out, the white light, like a strand of white hair, crystalline and transparent, transformed into a godly Ancient Demon Ape.
"Ancient Demon Ape? Witch Clan Totem?"
Jiang He exclaimed, his voice altering for a split second, which Zhou Yan instantly captured.
It seemed Jiang He was more shocked by this scene than Zhou Yan.
However, after the appearance of the Ancient Demon Ape, it suddenly wielded a golden staff and struck, similarly penetrating the Star River, repelling Jiang He’s attack.
Jiang He’s attack, however, suddenly surged in offense again, deriving from one into two, manifesting something akin to the Supreme Dao of Dao Sheng Yi.
Dao creates one, one creates two, two creates three, and three gives birth to all things.
Jiang He’s attack suddenly became an endless onslaught, countless, immeasurable.
After the endless attacks were derived, they transformed into a point, a black point.
The black origin point suddenly targeted Zhou Yan’s Dao body, like an interrupted attack suddenly resuming, incomparably harmonious and invincible.
The Dao body wielded the golden staff, with a cold and composed demeanor, stepping forward boldly, the staff quivered, and on the golden staff infinitely diffused Tai Chu Rune totems like waves.
This was the manifestation of Dao Traces, the rules, a strike embodying personal law, personal will.
At this moment, Zhou Yan vaguely established a connection with this Dao body, so his divine soul stirred, thoughts transmitted over, like controlling a puppet, manipulating this Dao body, causing it to gather all its strength after this attack, assassinating out an attack akin to the slaying against the Evil Venerate towards Yanyan.
Zhou Yan did not master such Dao, but the Supreme Dao of Form and Intent allowed his imitation to almost equate to a reenactment of such Dao.
Under the premise of the Dao body’s absolute strength, this strike was by no means an ordinary one.
"Sizzle--"
Indeed, the Dao body suddenly changed moves, striking out an almost Immortal Strike in an instant, not only rapidly shattering Jiang He’s invincible attack but also due to the strong energy backlash, being blasted ten thousand eight hundred miles away.
This section of the Star River, due to the Dao body’s almost cataclysmic full force explosion, shattered; the torrent reversed, the universe turned into a black hole void.
"Rumble——"
"Crash——"
Space collapsed, an endless chaotic torrent, like a terrifying maelstrom, manifested a void, the eerie Netherworld Energy in the depths of the void, violent Divine Origin Power, and so on, all emerged, in this instant, as if a cataclysmic disaster occurred.
Yet Zhou Yan withdrew at this moment, but the ring from the Sacrificial Heaven Domain continued to float in one void, flickering unpredictably, devouring the energy of this piece of the starry sky.
A moment later, a trace of blood appeared at the corner of Jiang He’s mouth, his entire body unscathed, appearing in front of Zhou Yan, looking at him with indifference, his eyes complex, saying: "I did not expect you have grown to this extent, truly surprising.
But you shouldn’t have come to the Jiang family, shouldn’t have faced me so soon."
"Perhaps no one knows who you are, but I know, you are——"
Jiang He said, suddenly a fierce flash in his eyes, striking out a terrifying attack like Soul Capturing and Body Seizing towards Zhou Yan with destructive power.
But Zhou Yan had long calculated, knowing this would be an extremely dangerous ending, thus immediately using Void Power to escape while striking out the Flame Throne, activating its defensive power.
"Puff--"
Jiang He was rebounded by immense power, failing to pierce through the Flame Throne’s defense with one spear.
The seemingly broken Flame Throne unexpectedly erupted with a new vitality, extraordinarily formidable.
Jiang He was visibly taken aback.
"Strange, isn’t it? The primary reason I sent Jiang Tianxin to the Sacrificial Heaven Domain was merely to allow this Flame Throne to replenish its powerful Immortal Origin Energy. With this, I am invincible."
Zhou Yan said with a smile.
