Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor
Chapter 735 735, Sudden Realization
After refining the Undying Tree, the ability of Blood Rebirth could not be said to be a meteoric rise for Chu Ming, but it was definitely an added strength.
Boom!
Chu Ming stood up from the ground and strode across the starry sky. The terrifying aura swept through the entire Void. At this moment, he truly possessed the capital to confront a Low Tier King head-on.
"Your willpower truly exceeds my expectations!"
An unexpected voice sounded from the Void, and the figure of the Artifact Spirit appeared in mid-air, staring at Chu Ming with a hint of surprise in its gaze.
"Have you once fused with the Undying Tree of the Celestial Martial Continent?"
Before Chu Ming could reply, the Artifact Spirit continued to ask.
"That's right, I luckily fused with the Undying Tree!"
Chu Ming said calmly. Along the way, the Undying Tree had provided him with significant help, and at this moment, he felt somewhat grateful to the Evil Wind Emperor.
"The Undying Tree is considered a rare treasure in the entire Cosmos, not often seen. If you enter the Cosmos, I advise you not to easily reveal information about the Undying Tree!"
The Artifact Spirit advised kindly.
"Thank you!"
Chu Ming's face remained calm, but a sense of gratitude welled up in his heart.
"No need to thank me. Perhaps you won't even have the chance to enter the Cosmos, and you might be killed by a Demon King outside. Fate is unpredictable for anyone!"
The Artifact Spirit sighed slightly, reminiscing about following the master of the Holy Tomb across the Cosmos. Even the Sovereigns of the nine Divine Kingdoms would kneel and bow upon seeing them. No one could have predicted that the immensely powerful master of the Holy Tomb would eventually meet his demise. It was truly the whims of fate.
"Now, the eighth layer test begins!"
Boom!
Putting aside its sorrow, the Artifact Spirit spoke coldly.
Boom!
A terrifying figure clothed in black robes emerged from the Void. The replica of the eighth layer already possessed all of Chu Ming's combat power. If Chu Ming didn't have Blood Rebirth, it would definitely be a tough battle.
Swoosh!
The black-robed swordsman took a step forward, slightly tilting the Wooden Sword in his hand in the sky. Instantly, a terrifying sword scar slashed through the sky, leaving a pitch-black rift in the Void with a sharp gust of wind.
Chu Ming's expression turned serious. At this moment, he finally felt what others felt when facing him. An overwhelming and terrifying Sword Force came rushing towards him.
Boom!
Chu Ming quickly raised the Wooden Sword in his hand, and a sharp Sword Light shot through the sky, tearing through the Void, enveloped in Void Power, rushing towards the black-robed swordsman.
"Puff…"
Ring ring...
Two Wooden Swords collided, producing the sound of metals clashing. Chu Ming's expression changed as he felt a tremendous force coming from his right arm, forcing him to continuously retreat.
Puff...
A streak of blood appeared on his Blood Robe, and a thin wound appeared on his left chest. Though insignificant, it still made his pupils shrink. In his eyes, there was no flaw in the black-robed swordsman.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
One red and one black shadow entangled in the sky, sword shadows clashing, destroying stars. The two Sword Auras darted around like lightning in the Void, with a chilling atmosphere that made one shudder.
Puff!
The wounds on Chu Ming's body increased. Although he wore a red robe, making it less noticeable, blood still seeped through.
"Your comprehension and willpower are commendable, but your starting point is too low!"
In a hidden spot, the Artifact Spirit shook its head. With Chu Ming's talent, he was already considered quite good in the endless eras. However, the Celestial Martial Continent was at the edge of the Cosmos, with thin Spiritual Power and extremely rare Spiritual Objects that could enhance Cultivation. Compared to the Cosmos's center, it was insignificant.
If he were to cultivate in the center of the Cosmos, a Martial Artist of Chu Ming's age would almost have broken through the Life and Death Realm. The more powerful ones should be in the Mid-Life and Death Realm, and many prodigies would have reached the Late Stage. Compared to them, Chu Ming's starting point was indeed low.
...
"The replica of the eighth layer is simply too strong!"
A figure shrouded in shadows murmured. This shadowy figure's face could not be seen clearly; only crimson eyes gleaming in the Void. Its massive body obscured the stars and tore countless stars apart. The entire starry sky turned into ruins. Opposite it stood another towering figure, staring coldly with eyes full of calm and brutality.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The two giant figures collided rapidly, with terrifying shockwaves sweeping the sky, blasting numerous stars. In an instant, Demon General Karl's body was blown away dozens of times. In the Restricted Area, his combat power was no less than that of the Blood Rain Demon General. Among the demons who entered the Holy Tomb, he was also a top-tier powerhouse.
"If I can leave here this time, with the treasure I obtained on the seventh layer of the Primordial Tower, I will have a place in the Restricted Area in the future. Becoming the Sixth War General is not impossible!"
In his heart, Demon General Karl thought, but he also knew that no one should know about the treasure he obtained here. Otherwise, it would be a dead end for him.
Boom!
"Blood Demon Transformation!"
"Blood Demon Transformation!"
Two roars rang out as the two terrifying figures expanded again. Demon General Karl's blood and Qi surged wildly, turning him into a slaughter machine, with blood clouds churning above his head, forming into strange shapes.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
After the Blood Demon Transformation, the aftermath of their battle rose to a higher level.
Puchi!
After a few moves, Demon General Karl could not resist his replica and was blown away. Before he could react, a sharp claw pierced through his chest, splashing blood everywhere. The intense pain twisted Demon General Karl's face into a crazed expression.
"I give up! I want to leave here!"
Demon General Karl shouted loudly, his eyelids twitching.
"As you wish!"
The Artifact Spirit's cold voice came from the Void, and immediately, a white light covered Demon General Karl, causing his figure to disappear instantly from the Primordial Tower.
...
Puff!
A terrifying Sword Light came slashing from the Void, cutting through Chu Ming's body at the waist, splattering blood. In an instant, Chu Ming reappeared behind the black-robed swordsman, his Wooden Sword cutting through the Void, stabbing directly towards the black-robed swordsman with terrifying speed.
Clang!
Sparks flew as the Wooden Swords collided, sending Chu Ming flying.
However, Chu Ming's heart was exceptionally calm. A sliver of white mist floated out from his mouth and nose, and the Sword Light in his eyes grew denser.
Boom!
A terrifying light exploded in Chu Ming's mind as he swung his Wooden Sword again, tearing through the Void. This seemingly ordinary strike knocked the black-robed swordsman's sword aside and then pierced through the black-robed swordsman's left chest.
Puff!
