Slaying the Divine Emperor! Ranked Seventh!

In a critical moment, Lu Chen finally finished allocating his points.

His expression was icy, and he held the Golden Divine Sword. Waves of Imperial Dao aura intertwined around him, as if becoming substantial, bringing forth golden ripples that covered all directions, enveloped heaven and earth, and suppressed ten thousand miles of mountains and rivers...

Everyone suddenly felt as if their hearts were being tightly gripped by an invisible hand, causing their bodies to tremble and their breathing to become difficult.

Under this aura, it seemed impossible to resist kneeling on the ground, trembling and only able to offer worship.

"A Divine Emperor, a true Divine Emperor..."

Xiao Wanfeng's lips were dry, his eyes filled with terror.

"Fellow Daoist Lu... has broken through, he actually broke through..."

Li Wangxu also murmured.

The silver blade person in mid-air, with icy eyes like lightning, instantly locked onto Lu Chen. Waves of sharp Blade Qi emanated from him, shaking heaven and earth.

"Good, good, good! To be able to break through at such a critical moment, no wonder you dared to intrude upon my domain!"

His voice was cold, and the Blade Qi on his body vibrated.

"Today, I intend to leave, and no one can stop me!"

Lu Chen's voice was clear, his gaze fixed on the strange silver blade person.

The silver blade person's body lit up with brilliant pure white light, like a silver blazing sun, its fierce radiance spreading out with an aura of supreme eternity.

The myriad blades on his body also rang out with a clanging sound...

The waves of Imperial Dao aura were almost no weaker than Lu Chen's!

"If you want to leave my presence, you'll have to show me your true skill!"

The silver blade person's eyes were icy as he stared intently at Lu Chen.

Whoosh!

His body vanished in an instant.

A majestic and supreme Imperial Dao aura suddenly erupted from his body, like the primordial chaos splitting open, heaven and earth being destroyed, an ultimate killing aura covering heaven and earth.

The entire area violently shook.

All tangible matter was rapidly shattering.

Li Wangxu, Venerable Chiyan, Xiao Wanfeng, and the other Divine Kings revealed looks of horror, feeling as if their souls were about to fly out.

This aura wasn't even directed at them; merely a slight diffusion was enough to make them unable to resist.

This was a Divine Emperor!

The might of a Divine Emperor could not be challenged!

However.

Lu Chen remained unmoved. A golden hue appeared in his dark, deep pupils, and the Imperial Dao aura on his body surged forth like myriad great suns appearing simultaneously.

Brilliant golden divine light erupted from his body.

Every pore seemed to transform into dazzling, radiant great suns, from which Great Sun Sword Qi flew out, illuminating the sky.

At this moment, he seemed to have transformed into the origin of the universe, the destination of all paths.

He took a step forward, the golden sword light carrying an exotic luster, like an eternal 'one', flashing in an instant, slashing fiercely towards the void to his side.

There.

The silver blade person's body almost instantly materialized, and a terrifying, brilliant blade light directly blasted towards Lu Chen at extreme speed.

With a single strike, it caused all sorts of terrifying phenomena.

The bright moon rises over the sea, sharing this moment across the world.

It was as if a silver moon was cleaving down between heaven and earth, its Blade Qi peerless, intending to cover everything, causing the sky to collapse and the earth to crack, destroying all.

Their sword techniques and blade techniques, at this instant, collided.

It was as if two completely different worlds were crashing into each other.

Rumble!

An incredibly dazzling radiance exploded between heaven and earth.

It was filled with countless Sword Qi and Blade Qi, almost splitting the heavens and earth, destroying everything.

The entire ground almost instantly collapsed, and countless massive rocks turned to dust.

The numerous Divine Kings were all terrified and fled rapidly, as the mere aftershocks were enough to shatter their bodies.

The scarlet eyes in the high sky all looked towards Lu Chen and the others with expressions of interest.

It was as if the battle here had attracted the attention of all the three-faced people.

The dense cluster of eyes resembled a constellation of blood-red stars.

The Divine Kings were all extremely terrified and looked back.

"This is the supreme collision of Divine Emperor level beings, others truly cannot compare!"

"The true Divine Emperor is simply too terrifying..."

They knew that Lu Chen already possessed combat power comparable to a Divine Emperor.

Once this combat power broke through and he achieved true Divine Emperor status, he would be far beyond the comparison of ordinary Divine Emperors.

The facts proved this to be true.

The world was illuminated, dazzling and brilliant.

Within it, two figures engaged in a rapid duel, the ultimate collision of sword techniques and blade techniques. All that could be heard were the piercing sounds of clanging metal, and their bodies were completely indistinguishable. Every strike caused the world to tremble.

It was like two supreme, forbidden beings clashing.

Everything else disappeared.

Only they became eternal in the world.

Boom!

With another strike, both of their bodies were sent flying backward instantly, landing in the distance.

Waves of Imperial Dao aura emanated from their bodies, surging and powerful.

Whether it was the silver blade person or Lu Chen, it was as if a blurry miniature world was revolving around them.

This was their Dao, their technique!

At the Divine Emperor stage, one had to recondense and solidify their previous laws and divine power into a unique Great Dao, a supreme technique, and could even evolve a miniature world, possessing supreme utility.

The area between the two was desolate.

Mountain ranges were leveled.

Villages were shattered.

The world was filled with an indescribable aura of destruction. Any Divine King who approached would not escape death, instantly annihilated by this terrifying aura.

All directions were silent!

Those Divine Kings who had just retreated were all horrified, chilled to the bone.

The gap was too vast.

So vast that no secret treasure could bridge it.

How could anyone else contend?

In this trial, they were destined to be no match for Lu Chen.

"Your sword technique is indeed unique,"

The silver blade person said with a cold tone, "but you won't be able to leave today. Even if I don't kill you, other Emperors will execute you. This region is not allowed to have any Emperors; this is the rule set by the adults!"

"Rules?"

Lu Chen narrowed his eyes, almost subconsciously thinking of the dense eyes in the sky above.

Without a doubt.

The "adults" the other party spoke of were those three-faced people.

A burning rage welled up in his heart.

He would one day drag these three-faced people down from their pedestals and trample them underfoot.

"Then come!"

Lu Chen roared, initiating the attack first. Divine light erupted all over his body, like a sword emperor awakening. Soaring sword Qi reverberated in all directions, launching his strongest secret technique right from the start.

"Roar!"

The silver blade person let out a long howl. Blade Qi surged all over his body, covering the sky and emitting a dazzling radiance. He also struck forward, every organ on his body almost a terrifying, supreme divine blade.

Boom!

The two collided, and the sky collapsed once more.

An aura of great destruction and shattering erupted from here.

Both of them pushed their killing techniques to the extreme, their bodies burning, emitting billions of rays of light.

"They're going to use their trump cards!"

"They might decide life and death!"

"Too terrifying!"

All the Divine Kings showed fear.

At this moment, no one chose to flee immediately.

They all wanted to see the final outcome.

Because among the Divine Kings who entered this time, there were too many like Lu Chen, stuck at the critical point, about to break through.

Once they all broke through, what hope would anyone else have?

It would be the same as death.

Boom!

The clash of their blades and swords, the profound mysteries and laws contained within them, also collided, emitting sounds like the roar of the Great Dao, with an aura of endless destruction spreading.

The entire ground was almost completely turned into a desert.

Countless miles became ruins.

Bang! Bang!

The two figures were sent flying back again.

But after being sent flying back, Lu Chen's eyes turned cold. The sword technique in his hand changed again, and an extremely strange aura of the Great Dao's downfall emanated from his sword technique, filled with extreme sorrow and extreme despair.

It was as if the sky and earth were collapsing, and the Six Paths of Reincarnation...

It was as if he had instantly arrived at an era of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man, and his entire body also changed along with it, as if he had become one with the sword light, instantly losing all karma, all trajectories, all vital energy.

At the same time.

The silver blade person also seemed to sense that Lu Chen was unleashing a big move. Its entire body spun in place, and an equally terrifying aura emanated from it.

Its body spun faster and faster, more and more strangely, until it seemed to completely disappear, leaving only an extremely peculiar silver light that connected heaven and earth, tearing everything apart.

This silver light seemed to have become the origin of the universe.

It seemed to have become the spectral presence of all living beings.

Whoosh!

The silver light spun and shot towards Lu Chen at extreme speed.

At the same moment, Lu Chen's body finally finished changing. An aura of the Six Paths shattering and heaven and earth sinking erupted, and the golden sword light in his hand slashed out fiercely.

"Kill!"

Boom!

The strange sword light instantly streaked across the sky, colliding directly with the silver vortex. After a slight stalemate, it instantly pierced through, emerging from the interior of the silver vortex.

Pfft!

The entire silver vortex suddenly stopped.

The world instantly became clear.

Even the silver blade person that had been spinning reappeared, its face blank, its body swaying, and countless cracks suddenly appeared all over its silver-white body.

Muffled cracking sounds were heard.

"What sword is this?"

It muttered.

"Path Slasher!"

Lu Chen said coldly.

This move had already departed from the original [Sorrow of the Great Dao].

It was an evolution upon [Sorrow of the Great Dao].

It was Lu Chen's supreme understanding, formed by integrating all his sword dao theories and knowledge, a single sword strike that shattered everything.

"Path Slasher, Path Slasher..."

The silver blade person repeated, murmuring, "You can be stronger than me. I hope you can escape this cage and return to the real world soon..."

Crack!

Bang!

A muffled sound was heard, and its entire body could no longer maintain its form, instantly shattering into countless silver fragments, dense and numerous, dissipating into heaven and earth.

[...Merit Points +3,000,000!]

A line of numbers appeared.

From all directions, the original blade people, souls, and tentacle people finally showed panic. They had lost all will to fight and turned to flee, in groups, scattering in all directions.

"Run!"

"The leader is dead!"

"Retreat!"

The remaining Divine Kings' expressions changed, and they quickly took the opportunity to charge at the monsters, harvesting as much as they possibly could.

Even though they knew their chances in this trial were slim, they still attacked with all their might.

Lu Chen's eyes turned even colder, and his body instantly shot out, heading towards a group of monsters to kill them.

Whoosh!

His sword light flickered, harvesting even faster than before.

Sheets of strange sword light kept folding and surging.

Monsters were slain with almost every sword strike.

Merit Points appeared rapidly before his eyes, in swathes.

Just then.

Suddenly, the entire world underwent another drastic change.

The originally pitch-black, dead silent sky, at this moment, quickly revealed a massive ranking list, which, with a boom, hung above everyone's heads.

Dense names appeared on it.

Corresponding points appeared after each name.

Instantly, the points of all the Divine Kings were revealed.

Everyone was greatly shocked and looked up.

"Heavens, I'm actually in 243rd place!"

"I'm in 300-something!"

"I've fallen so far behind, how could this happen?"

"The person ranked first is Venerable Jiuyun, he's broken through to Divine Emperor!"

"The person ranked second is Old Man Ku, and third is Huangfu Shang, Divine Emperors, they've all broken through to Divine Emperor..."

"Lu Chen, Lu Chen is ranked seventh!"

The crowd was instantly stunned.

These lists not only displayed their rankings but also their cultivation levels.

And soon, they discovered another, even more terrifying matter.

Below the rankings, another line of text clearly appeared.

[Points can be seized from each other. When a companion is personally killed, their points will automatically transfer to the killer.]

[Tokens can locate each other and sense one another.]

"Points can be seized from each other, and tokens can locate each other..."

Many felt a chill in their hearts.

This is bad!

These are newly established rules!

They are meant to make them slaughter each other!

And here, the most terrifying person is Lu Chen.

If he wanted to kill everyone, no one would be able to escape...

Everyone shivered and no longer dared to linger, quickly fleeing in all directions.

Even Venerable Chiyan and Li Wangxu's expressions changed drastically. They stopped abruptly, looked at Lu Chen, and a trace of apprehension appeared in their hearts.
