Upon entering the Chaos, Dao Patriarch Xing Chen slightly took a sigh of relief. He was truly afraid of Jiang Ming because Jiang Ming was too horrifying. Therefore, he thought it was better to avoid Jiang Ming temporarily instead of fighting. After obtaining the encounter, it was not too late to kill Jiang Ming after he broke through to the realm higher than that of Saint.
With a wave, the palace in the world membrane leaped out, fell on his hand, which he kept.
“Alas, the Chaos!” Dao Patriarch Xing Chen was slightly emotional. In his realm, only the things in the Chaos or the Sea of Chaos were attractive to him. If it wasn’t because of that fragment of the battlefield ruin, he would have left. Now that he was forced to go, it wasn’t considered as a regret anyway.
“Let’s go!” He turned into a stream of light as he left. He no longer was nervous. After all, the Chaos obscured the sky, and it was impossible to deduce traces at all.
However, after the Dao Patriarch had traveled for 300 billion kilometers, he abruptly stopped.
‘How is it possible?’ Dao Patriarch Xing Chen looked forward with surprise, which then turned puzzled.
Jiang Ming was before him, blocking his way.
“The Chaos conceals traces, how can you catch up with me, and appear in front of me? Besides, your appearance is very sudden, as if you appear out of nowhere. But this is Chaos, you can’t teleport here, can you? Moreover, when you descended to our Xuanhuang Great Chiliocosm, you seemed to have appeared out of nowhere too. Fellow Daoist, what is this method of yours?”
For a while, curiosity took over. Dao Patriarch Xing Chen was really curious because Jiang Ming’s act had completely subverted his present knowledge.
“Can it be that you are an existence who has transcended the Saint? No, this is also wrong!” Dao Patriarch Xing Chen couldn’t think of a reason.
“Great chiliocosms are full of wonders. There are too many things that are out of common sense.” Jiang Ming grinned, “Fellow Daoist, what other means you have, I’ll take them all.”
“Great chiliocosms are full of wonders indeed.” Dao Patriarch Xing Chen sighed. Following that, he slightly stood upright, and his aura of suppressing the heavens rippled out, repelling the surrounding chaotic aura. His aura was strong, ancient, and gave people a sense of immortality.
“Fellow Daoist, do you really want to fight ceaselessly until one of us dies?”
A mirror appeared above Dao Patriarch Xing Chen, radiating luminance, which seemed to have contained 3,000 great Daos in it. A futon appeared under him, and rays of light rose up to protect him. The immortal cloth on his body was flowing with divine light, and one after another immortal patterns emerged, revolving around him.
Meanwhile, Dao Patriarch Xing Chen was holding a book on his left. It had purple-gold lustre, and was exuding aura that made Chaos tremble. On his right was a dragon-headed crutch. While the dragon was swallowing and spitting, it emitted power that could shatter great chiliocosms.
“Awesome!” When Jiang Ming saw the equipment of Dao Patriarch Xing Chen, he couldn’t help but gasp. “All of them are Saint Weapons, and they aren’t ordinary ones.”
“I’ve got only five!” Dao Patriarch Xing Chen sighed. “The slight increment of their might is due to the injection of the world’s qi of origin which I have refined. Unfortunately, their natural essences can’t be altered to go beyond the Saint Weapon’s level. Although they are slightly stronger than ordinary Saint Weapons, they are still limited.”
“You’re simply showing off!” Jiang Ming said.
“I need to let some people know about my achievement right?” Dao Patriarch Xing Chen smiled. “Fellow Daoist, what about you let me go? Provided you aren’t an existence who’s stronger than a Saint, what can you do to me with my top-graded Saint Weapons?”
“Indeed I can’t do much to you!” Jiang Ming had a headache. He might not be capable of killing Dao Patriarch Xing Chen with his Half-King Saint’s Soul. After all, Dao Patriarch Xing Chen was at the perfect stage of Saint Realm. Moreover, with his Saint Weapons and his meticulousness, Jiang Ming was afraid that Dao Patriarch Xing Chen had another supreme treasure protecting his Saint Soul.
“I’d still have to try, right?” As Jiang Ming said, along with a flash of his forehead, the Taixu God Slaying Needle flew out at an extremely high speed.
Dao Patriarch Xing Chen’s pupils constricted, and he was trying to dodge the needle, but he was too late. Hence, he could only exert his own power to form layers of defense.
The Taixu God Slaying Needle pierced through the 3,000 layers of immortal lights surging from the futon beneath Dao Patriarch Xing Chen’s feet, tore apart the protective divine light from the mirror, penetrated through the defense of the immortal cloth, and landed on Dao Patriarch Xing Chen’s forehead.
Ding… A crisp sound rang out, and spread out 300 billion miles away.
A series of sparks appeared between Dao Patriarch Xing Chen’s eyebrows, and then exploded to form a sea of fire. He was pushed back at the impacts, and his seven orifices were bleeding too.
‘What a terrific attack!’ After Dao Patriarch Xing Chen balanced himself, he touched his forehead, and shuddered at the fearful danger he was in. “I almost failed to block that attack even though I have numerous defensive supreme treasures, and a Soul Dao Saint Weapon in my sea of consciousness. Alas, this strike is too amazing, truly amazing! Under the concussion, even my Saint Soul felt like collapsing.”
“Unfortunately, that strike failed to kill you, not even badly injured you.” Jiang Ming shook his head, and sighed.
“Fellow Daoist, since you can’t kill me, shall we just forget about this and go our own ways without interfering with each other?” Dao Patriarch Xing Chen said with sincerity expressed on his face.
“Since when did I say that I can’t kill you? That was just a strike after all!” Jiang Ming smiled sinisterly.
Dao Patriarch Xing Chen’s expression stiffened. “Fellow Daoist, please don’t be ridiculous. Can you really kill me?”
“Of course, I’ve got three methods!” Jiang Ming said frankly.
“Three types?” Dao Patriarch Xing Chen shivered, and almost turned around and ran.
‘God damn it. I’m the Dao Patriarch. I’m armed with extremely exquisite Saint Weapons, and there wasn’t anyone among the Saints who could kill me. Yet you said you have three methods! Damn. God damn it. Are you joking? I don’t think so. Oh my god, how can I encounter such a monster? Does heaven want me dead?’
“Fellow Daoist, can you share with me which three methods you are referring to so that I won’t die in vain?” Dao Patriarch Xing Chen almost cried.
“You are the Dao Patriarch, aren’t you? How can you be so afraid of death?” Jiang Ming felt rather sorry for Dao Patriarch Xing Chen.
“So what if I’m a Dao Patriarch, I’m still a being anyway.” Dao Patriarch Xing Chen said frankly, “I haven’t managed to see the view as an existence beyond the Saint Realm, and become the Dao Patriarch of the Sea of Chaos. Hence, it’s not worth dying now. Fellow Daoist, do share with me what are your three methods so that I can gain some knowledge as well!” As Dao Patriarch Xing Chen said, his eyes had a faint wisp of black light flowing.
“It’s simple! The first is to detonate a few Saint Weapons. Can I kill you with that?” Jiang Ming said.
“Detonating a few Saint Weapons? Yes, you can, totally can! Detonating a piece is equivalent to a Saint’s self-destruction. With such a special ability of yours, it’s totally workable!” Dao Patriarch Xing Chen said wryly.
“The second method…” Jiang Ming frowned. “Can I kill you if I were to cast the strike earlier at the strength of five times stronger?”
“Five times stronger?” Dao Patriarch Xing Chen’s heart skipped a beat, but at the same time he nodded as he said, “I almost failed to resist that strike earlier. Hence, if the strength of the strike was to be five times stronger, my Saint Soul would definitely crumble!”
‘This kid truly has other Trump Cards. Damn, who’s he? How can he be this terrifying? Can he be the direct disciple of some large faction in the Sea of Chaos?’
“What about the third one?” Dao Patriarch Xing Chen asked as he was thinking.
Jiang Ming took a glance at the Human Path Record, and knew clearly what Dao Patriarch Xing Chen was thinking. He knew Dao Patriarch Xing Chen had figured out a way of escaping, and he was confident at that.
“The third one?” Jiang Ming grinned. “It’s simple. Come and look at this, what’s this?”
A spear appeared in Jiang Ming’s hand. As soon as it appeared, the surrounding space of the void abruptly trembled.
The heaviness of crushing Chaos, the extreme sharpness of opening up the world, and the ancient and powerful aura that shattered the Saint Soul, made Dao Patriarch Xing Chen pale in horror, and couldn’t help but scream, “This is the King Saint Weapon, alas, the King Saint Weapon! How can you have such a supreme treasure?”
“I’m done for!” Thinking of his own life-saving method, Dao Patriarch Xing Chen was left in despair. Hence, he turned to run away.
“Do you think you can run away?”
As Jiang Ming mobilized his Siant power, the Heaven-Shattering Spear in his hand burst out with a terrifying might that shattered everything, and the dormant boundless edge of the spear gradually was awakened.
With the terrific power he could hold up a world, Jiang Ming actually felt he couldn’t afford the weight of the spear. With a thought, he merged the power of his Saint Soul into it as well.
Buzz buzz buzz…
The spear trembled as if it was cheering or was thirsty. Wisp after wisp of sharp edge burst forth, tore open the Chaos, and actually evolved into a miniature world. From within, the fire, wind, and water poured out, good fortune burst out, and one by one primitive elves appeared.
Heaven and earth collapsed, all things were destroyed, and returned to the Chaos.
“Out!” Jiang Ming took heavy steps, shouted loudly, and projected the Heaven-Shattering spear that locked at the aura of Dao Patriarch Xing Chen. The spear caught up with Dao Patriarch Xing Chen, who had escaped into a distance in a blink of an eye.
The spear pierced through his body easily but it was not the true body of Dao Patriarch Xing Chen. It was his Saint Weapon which could replicate his body, and also the undulation of his Saint Soul. Alas, it was unfortunate that the Saint Weapon failed to resist the sharp edge of the Heaven-Shattering spear, and scattered.
In fact, the spear didn’t stop there. It went on tearing the Chaos, and got to the true body of Dao Patriarch Xing Chen with a leap.
‘My Hunyuan Treasure Mirror is actually shattered? No, it’s caught up with me!”
Dao Patriarch Xing Chen showed his despair. As he knew he couldn’t elude anymore, he turned to face the spear, and cast a long river of Dao vessels at the spear which had gotten near him.
They were Quasi-Saint Dao Vessels, and Saint Weapons. There were dozens of them. There were also various supreme Saint Laws.
However, his efforts were in vain. All of his vessels, weapons, and laws failed to resist the Heaven-Shattering spear. They were either being pierced through or thrown out, losing all their power in an instant.
“Alas, I’m the Dao Patriarch, the Dao Patriarch! How can I be killed just like that! No, I’m Hei Tian, the Great Demon Hei Tian, who can kill me!” As Dao Patriarch Xing Chen roared, his eyes were filled with black light, and his body exploded, transforming into a total of 4 trillion kinds of rune, which instantly formed an arrow and shot towards the tip of the spear.
The black arrow was, however, scattered.
“Oh my great Lord God, I’m willing to sacrifice my everything, everything of mine. Just save me!” The Saint Soul eluded out of the body and cried for help. But it was pierced, and wailed mournfully for a long time.
A ravine that spans hundreds of billions of light-years also appeared in the Chaos.
