Tearing Apart the Myth of Imperial Blood
"Is this the clash between the Ancient Emperor Bloodline and the Hegemon Body of the human race? If I were to go up there, I would surely shatter in an instant!"
The collision between Zhou Tong and Yuan Gu was like a collision between a sea of thunder and demonic light. The entire world was filled with electric sparks and divine light, resulting in a violent explosion.
The heavens and earth were bright, Thunder Sea Waves. Everyone was being pushed back, and some cultivators with weaker cultivation levels couldn't see anything at all, only the thunder and light filling their eyes.
Zhou Tong was like a thunder god, traversing the sea of thunder. Each strike was accompanied by terrifying lightning and runes, creating a scene as terrifying as Thunder Tribulation.
Yuan Gu was also domineering and boundless. The aftershocks from his jet-black fist could destroy mountains and rivers, turning hundreds of miles around into a vast desert, devoid of any life.
The collision between the two caused the earth to crumble, leaving it scarred and devastated, resembling a scene of utter terror.
"Boom!"
The final strike after a hundred moves was like the collapse of two sky domes, unleashing an aura of utter Annihilation. The two people's bodies were burning, radiating countless rays of light.
This was the simplest and most direct counterattack, but the result was completely unexpected.
"Puff!!"
Zhou Tong's punch, imbued with the power of thunder, shattered Yuan Gu's physical body, sending countless fragments of flesh flying and a deluge of blood raining down. The advantage accumulated from the previous hundred clashes erupted in an instant.
The scene before their eyes nearly made the hearts of many people in various departments of Taigu stop beating.
How could this be? The Emperor Yuan looked down upon the world, and their bloodline should have been invincible. However, the scene before them left everyone speechless, unable to believe what they were seeing.
"Yuan Gu got blown up!"
Both the Ancient Races and the human race were in an uproar; people couldn't believe it.
The ancient emperors, who could Shrouding the Heavens and oversee all ages, became invincible after attaining enlightenment, representing the strongest.
Yuan Gu possessed the purest blood of the Emperor Yuan, and as an eighth-generation descendant, his bloodline had not been diluted much. Moreover, his talent was exceptional; in terms of cultivation alone, he was unparalleled throughout history, surpassing all others in his clan. Otherwise, he would not have been sealed away.
Logically speaking, apart from the Ancient Emperor's own son, no one should be able to match him, so why is he being beaten to a pulp now?
Could it be that the human race's Hegemon Body can rival that of the Emperor Yuan in his youth?
For a time, all the tribes were somewhat terrified. When did the human race become so unfamiliar, and how could such an invincible Overlord have appeared!
They looked towards Zhou Tong. Although the previous collision had caused some damage to his physical body, he had recovered instantly under the power of the Immortal Phoenix Divine Fire, so he looked as if he was completely unharmed.
"What a powerful physical body!!" Even the Battle Saint Ape, who was known for his physical strength among the Ancient Races, couldn't help but shrink his pupils, and a fighting spirit inadvertently emanated from him.
Seeing an opponent like Zhou Tong, the Holy Imperial Son couldn't help but want to fight him.
However, as soon as he moved, Divine Silkworm Princess beside him immediately pressed him down and shook her head slightly.
As Great Sage, Divine Silkworm Princess could naturally see that Zhou Tong's physical body was far superior to that of the current Holy Imperial Son, and the difference was considerable. If the current Holy Imperial Son were to make a move, he would surely suffer a crushing defeat.
"This healing method... why does it bear traces of my Immortal Phoenix Lineage? It's even more terrifying than I know!" On the other side, the Heavenly Emperor Son's expression was even more ferocious. This Overlord's healing method was clearly a legacy of their Immortal Phoenix Lineage!
His own family's inheritance had been obtained by his rival, and the aura it faintly exuded seemed to be even more authentic than the inheritance he himself possessed. How could this not enrage the Heavenly Emperor Son?
"Yuan Guang Reincarnation Wheel, illuminating my immortal body!"
Just as everyone was stunned by Zhou Tong's combat power, a deep roar resounded from Yuan Gu's shattered body. The sound was like an ancient evil spirit returning, breaking free of its shackles and charging out of Hell.
Above Yuan Gu's shattered body appeared a crystal-clear, spotless wheel that shone with an indestructible light, causing the fragments of his shattered body to quickly reunite, and he was reborn in an instant.
One of the secret techniques of the Emperor Yuan: the Yuan Guang Reincarnation Wheel!
By borrowing the power of heaven and earth, one can reshape oneself, achieve immortality, reign supreme over the world, and remain indestructible through countless eons.
After one move, apart from being covered in blood, Yuan Gu's injuries were no longer visible.
"I knew it! The bloodline of the Ancient Emperor couldn't have been defeated so easily!"
"That's right, this is the true power of the Emperor Yuan's bloodline!!"
Seeing Yuan Gu resurrected, many Ancient Races cultivators cheered as if their collapsed faith had been rebuilt. In their hearts, the Ancient Emperor was a god, an inviolable god.
"The blood of the Emperor Yuan is never shed in vain." With a tremor in the Void the Great, the Yuan Guang Treasure Wheel fell down, illuminating every drop of blood on Yuan Gu's body, transforming into a vast and boundless sea of blood, trapping Zhou Tong within it.
"One Flower, One World, a leaf is a Bodhi"—this is the profound truth of the Buddhist Sect.
However, in the scriptures of the Emperor Yuan, his own blood was transformed into a vast ocean. Yuan Gu sat cross-legged in the sea of blood, the Yuan Guang Reincarnation Wheel above his head, and began to silently chant incantations, attempting to refine Zhou Tong.
"You little trickster! No matter how many times you resurrect, I'll beat you to a pulp!"
"I'll give you a chance to fully display the Tao and Laws of your ancestors and please me!" Zhou Tong sneered. He was as immovable as a demonic mountain, and only when the sea of blood was about to engulf him did he open his mouth and roar.
"Boom!!"
A deafening thunderclap exploded, like an apocalyptic catastrophe, the terrifying sound waves carrying lightning sweeping across the earth. The sky trembled, the clouds in all directions were forcibly dispersed by Zhou Tong's roar, the ripples spreading and colliding with the surrounding sea of blood, resulting in a massive explosion between the two.
The sound waves collided with the waves of the blood sea there, unable to stop for a long time, and the world was filled with thunderous roars!
In an instant, Zhou Tong soared into the sky like a dragon, carrying billions of thunderbolts as he charged towards Yuan Gu, taking the initiative to attack.
"Today I will shatter the myth of the invincible Ancient Emperor Bloodline!" Zhou Tong roared.
This battle was not only a contest for the Emperor's Path, but also, with the help of various forces, it vaguely became a struggle for destiny between the human race and the Ancient Races.
Therefore, this battle must demonstrate the might and strength of the human race, and in the most powerful, domineering, and invincible manner, completely crush the Yuan Gu in front of everyone.
A comprehensive strike against the will and beliefs of the Ancient Races, letting all the Ancient Races know that the human race cannot be deceived and must not be deceived!
Therefore, Zhou Tong's opponent is not only Yuan Gu, an Ancient Emperor Bloodline, but also the general trend of the entire Ancient Races.
At that moment, Zhou Tong made a fist in the Void the Great with his right hand.
"Clang!"
A dazzling purple Thunder Divine Sword, formed from lightning and indestructible, was held in Zhou Tong's palm as he charged toward Yuan Gu.
"Hmph!" Yuan Gu snorted coldly, holding the Yuan Guang Reincarnation Wheel in his hand, which emitted a deathly light and suppressed Zhou Tong. The ten directions of the heavens collapsed, and the rumbling sound was endless, fully demonstrating the divine power of the Emperor Yuan's Great Dao.
The Dao Sound roared, and the Thunder Divine Sword rang out, colliding with the Yuan Guang Reincarnation Wheel hundreds of times, like the forging of iron, with the clanging sound never ending.
"Snap!"
Finally, Zhou Tong's Thunder Divine Sword exploded with a bang, and a terrifying bolt of lightning condensed into a beam that struck the Yuan Guang Reincarnation Treasure Wheel.
"Crack!" Finally, a cracking sound was heard, and the Yuan Guang Reincarnation Wheel also broke apart, with cracks appearing, before exploding in the Void the Great.
This cycle was originally formed by the laws of the Dao, and its formation and destruction are unpredictable. It can be repeated, but the current situation has already caused Yuan Gu's expression to change drastically, because Zhou Tong has already rushed to his side with boundless thunder, leaving him unable to react in time.
"Puff!!"
Zhou Tong struck Yuan Gu with a palm, splitting him in two and tearing off half of his body, causing a large amount of blood to gush out.
With a flash of light, Yuan Gu's torn physical body vanished into the distance.
Zhou Tong stood calmly in place, still not giving chase, but letting Yuan Gu recover his physical body at will. He was absolutely confident that he could completely crush Yuan Gu!
"Puff!"
With a soft sound, Yuan Gu exhausted his source energy and revived not far away using the Yuan Guang Reincarnation Wheel. His face turned even paler, and the veins on his forehead bulged, showing his extreme rage.
"Are you... fully recovered?" Zhou Tong asked softly, as if talking to an old friend.
The Ancient Races cultivators around them all looked extremely ugly; this was simply a trampling of their pride and confidence.
During a fair duel, instead of pressing his advantage, he allowed his opponent to recover, and even asked, "Are you fully recovered?" This was an extreme disregard for the Ancient Emperor Bloodline.
Yuan Gu's face was extremely ugly, and he was trembling with anger. These words were like rubbing salt into his wounds.
But he was powerless to refute it; being completely outmatched in combat strength was an undeniable fact, and no matter what he said, he could not change this established fact.
"I've said it before, I'll kill you every time you resurrect! I'll kill you until you're mentally broken, until your will is destroyed!" Zhou Tong's aura exploded, exuding an air of arrogance and invincibility.
He walked slowly toward the resurrected Yuan Gu, his steps not fast, but very steady.
The Great Dao of Heaven and Earth resonated and trembled with it, and the Dao Sound resounded throughout the world, highlighting its invincible power. It had an unparalleled aura that covered mountains and rivers, pressing down on countless Ancient Races in the vicinity, almost suffocating them.
This aura, this momentum, this great Dao—it was all too terrifying. Countless young cultivators of the Ancient Races were shaken, and even the most powerful of them were shaken, unable to look Zhou Tong in the eye.
When the Ancient Races was born, the young people's ambition, their drive to sweep away the human race and pacify the world, suffered a crushing blow at that moment.
