The true power of the Imperial World Shocking Merit
The Great Qin Emperor raised his hands high, his powerful and fierce energy gathering between them. He had cultivated the Imperial World Shocking Merit to its peak, and as the successor to the Heavenly Dao, overseeing the millions of people of the Great Qin Empire, he actually possessed the power to mobilize the Heavenly Dao. This gathered spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth could not be mobilized by one's own cultivation or Divine Sense. Therefore, the destructive power contained in this spiritual energy exceeded the limits that a mortal could control.
However, facing the Great Qin Emperor's attack, which was enough to kill him, Zhuge Xiang did not show much panic. He simply looked up and gazed westward, where the last ray of sunlight had finally disappeared into the horizon.
"It's getting dark," Zhuge Xiang murmured as he watched the last rays of sunlight disappear in the west and the crimson sun set.
"Ding, the effect of the Night Emblem has been activated, all attributes increased by 100%..." As if in response to Zhuge Xiang's words, a mechanical notification sounded in Zhuge Xiang's mind.
Although suppressed by the Great Qin Emperor and all his attributes were reduced by half, Zhuge Xiang's strength was finally restored to its normal level thanks to the Night Emblem's Effect, which doubled all his attributes.
Although he could no longer draw upon the power of Heaven and Earth and earth, with the Night Emblem's Effect, Zhuge Xiang's strength had returned to his normal level. Seeing the ball of spiritual energy gathering in the Great Qin Emperor's hand, his eyes narrowed, and before the ball of spiritual energy could be fully gathered, he made his move first.
The Heaven Collapsing Earth Shattering!
Transforming into Demon Body, Zhuge Xiang dared not hold back in the slightest. He raised his hands high, gripping the Sea Calming Divine Needle tightly, and slammed it down fiercely towards the Great Qin Emperor!
Boom!
The Great Qin Emperor pressed down on Zhuge Xiang's Sea Calming Divine Needle with his incredibly powerful spiritual energy, unleashing a terrifying explosion that shook the land for miles around.
A powerful force surged forth, and Zhuge Xiang's Hundred Zhang Demon Body was involuntarily forced back ten feet. On the Character Interface, Zhuge Xiang's HP also dropped by about one-tenth. With a pale face, Zhuge Xiang was clearly injured.
"This is the Imperial World Shocking Merit? It's too powerful! It actually managed to injure me..." Looking at the Great Qin Emperor remained motionless and unharmed, Zhuge Xiang's heart sank.
He was at the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique Fourth Layer, with HP of up to a million and an incredibly strong defense, comparable to Half-Immortal Artifact. Yet, his Heaven Collapsing Earth Shattering attack only managed to knock off about 100,000 HP recoil? If it were any other Cultivator, even Six-Star Corpse King, they might have been instantly killed?
"Oh? That was quite a powerful blow. But it looks like you've been injured too?" Looking at Zhuge Xiang's pale face, the Great Qin Emperor smiled mockingly, raising his hands once more.
Incredibly powerful spiritual energy gathered in his palm. It was this formidable and terrifying spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth. With the Imperial World Shocking Merit, he possessed the power of the Heavenly Dao. He could manipulate this spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth with ease, as if he were a fish in water.
"No, I can't beat him at all." Staring at the Great Qin Emperor, Zhuge Xiang understood that the Great Qin Emperor's Imperial World Shocking Merit was abnormally powerful. No matter what trump card he used, he couldn't beat him. This guy was ambushing him here today with the determination to kill him.
"What? Have you given up?" The Great Qin Emperor, seemingly able to read Zhuge Xiang's thoughts, raised his powerful and unmatched spirit ball and spoke condescendingly.
With this Imperial World Shocking Merit in hand, enabling him to exercise the power of Heavenly Dao, the Great Qin Emperor was confident in facing any Cultivator in the Heaven and Earth. After all, what Cultivator in the Heaven and Earth could withstand the methods of Heavenly Dao?
"Give up? How could I? Surrendering is not in my nature," Zhuge Xiang muttered to himself in response to the Great Qin Emperor's words. Since he couldn't defeat this guy, he might as well run for his life.
"Three Consecutive Slashes!" With a sharp look in his eyes, Zhuge Xiang activated his Skill, his figure transforming into a shadow too fast for the naked eye to see, instantly appearing before the Great Qin Emperor. Then, the Sea Calming Divine Needle in his hand suddenly revealed a layer of Profound Mysteries Runes, radiating a rich light, and he smashed it down fiercely towards the Great Qin Emperor: Shattering Strike!
Shattering Strike (Perfection Level): Deals a crushing blow to the target. Requires cultivation level of the Dao Seeking Realm and a heavy weapon. The attack can crush 50% of the target's defense for 10 seconds, consumes 3000 MP, and has a 60-second cooldown.
Shattering Strike —this was Skill Book that dropped after defeating the Blood-haired Man was the embodiment of the wills of the Six Nations in the Void. Zhuge Xiang had never had a suitable opportunity to use this Skill before, but today, it finally had a Skill to shine.
Bang!
The golden iron rod that the Sea Calming Divine Needle had transformed into was incredibly fast. It slammed into the Great Qin Emperor with a loud bang.
Although the Shattering Strike move cannot cause damage to the opponent, it is enough to weaken their defensive capabilities. A reduction of half of their defense is still quite terrifying.
"Ding, target's defense has decreased by 50%", the Mechanical System Prompt sounded in Zhuge Xiang 'Zhuge Xiang mind, bringing a smile to his lips.
As expected, the effect of this Shattering Strike was quite good. With half of the defense reduced, no one dared to underestimate it. Even the originally confident Great Qin Emperor had his pupils shrink and his eyes showed a deep sense of solemnity.
"Five Thunders Strike Head!" The Skill he acquired in the Asura Sect's Hidden Technique Forest was unleashed. Zhuge Xiang raised his hands high, and a thunderous Lightning resounded. Five bolts of Lightning, as thick as giant pillars, crashed down from the sky, unleashing a violent aura and blinding flashes of light.
Following the Five Thunders Strike Head Spell, Zhuge Xiang moved at his maximum speed. Without even checking if his Five Thunders Strike Head attack had worked, he put away the Sea Calming Divine Needle, and with a wave of his hand, a sword appeared in his palm— the Dragon's Judgment Sword.
Within the Purple Mansion Spiritual Platform, the Sword Soul, which had been dormant for a long time, suddenly unleashed boundless Sword Light, wielding a long sword and slashing fiercely.
"Sword Qi Storm"
A low shout rang out, and Sword Qi Storm Sword Qi erupted. The sword energy needed to be integrated into the wind. Although Zhuge Xiang could not mobilize the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth for his own use, which meant he could not cast Spell, this Sword Qi Storm was entirely formed from Zhuge Xiang's own Sword Qi. Since he could not mobilize the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth, he could rely entirely on his own strength.
The ferocious and blinding lightning and the wildly spinning and rampaging Sword Qi were released almost simultaneously, creating a terrifying and magnificent aura that raged wildly.
The Sword Qi Storm, mixed with lightning, resembled the Lightning Storm of Great Heavenly Tribulation, but its destructive aura was hundreds or thousands of times stronger.
"Now!" After his attack engulfed the Great Qin Emperor, Zhuge Xiang Zhuge Xiang his hand, and a stone covered with Runes appeared in his palm— Random Teleport Stone!
This Random Teleport Stone was dropped when Zhuge Xiang destroyed the Myriad Flowers Elder's physical body. It grants three random teleportation opportunities. So far, Zhuge Xiang has used this Random Teleport Stone twice, both times to escape. This is the last time.
Taking advantage of the Five Thunders Strike Head and the Sword Qi Storm engulfing the Great Qin Emperor and obscuring his vision, Zhuge Xiang activated the Random Teleport Stone. A layer of divine light enveloped Zhuge Xiang's body. The Great Qin Emperor, unable to seal off this space in time, was immediately struck by a flash of light, and Zhuge Xiang's body vanished into thin air...
"Get out of my way!" Amidst the Lightning Storm, the defense was reduced by half. Although these Lightning Storm could not cause any significant damage to the Great Qin Emperor, the combination of Sword Qi and lightning still left him somewhat disheveled. With a determined heart, he swung his hand and directly tore apart these massive Lightning Storm.
"You bastard, is this all the tricks you have? I..." After tearing apart Zhuge Xiang's Lightning Storm, the Great Qin Emperor spoke with intense anger.
However, before he could finish speaking, the Great Qin Emperor's next words caught in his throat. He looked around, his Divine Sense spreading out, and Zhuge Xiang's aura vanished into thin Heaven and Earth.
"What happened? How did he disappear? I didn't sense any fluctuations from him Space Rend..." The Great Qin Emperor spread his Divine Sense but couldn't detect Zhuge Xiang's presence at all. He was dumbfounded, floating alone in mid-air. He was filled with anger but had no one to vent it on. Zhuge Xiang had just mysteriously disappeared.
Sword Tomb!
This is a Forbidden Ground area of the Great Ming Dynasty. No Cultivator in the Great Ming Dynasty dares to set foot in the Sword Tomb at will, because the master of the Sword Tomb is an unparalleled expert whom no one dares to provoke. His cultivation is astonishing, and he obtained this cultivation in the midst of mountains of corpses Blood Sea.
The Cold-Blooded Sword Venerable —who in the Great Ming Dynasty hasn't heard of this title? His cultivation has already reached the peak of the Tenth Layer of the Great Accomplishment Stage; he only needs to break through the Final Layer barrier to ascend to the Immortal and Demonic Realms.
The Cold-Blooded Cold-Blooded Sword Venerable is known for his ruthless methods. Legend has it that over the past thousand years, tens of thousands of powerful individuals have perished at Cold-Blooded Sword Venerable hands. His weapons were collected and buried beneath his training grounds, hence the name "Sword Tomb"...
The Sword Tomb, filled with thousands of magical and Lingbao Treasure Artifact, exudes a resentful hatred that gathers together like a ghostly realm. Endless negative emotions such as hatred, resentment, and anger converge here. Even Cultivator at the Great Accomplishment Stage Realm dare not set foot here casually, for fear that this obsession will affect their state of mind and leave them with Heart Demon.
However, today, the Sword Tomb of the Great Ming Dynasty has gathered countless Void Returning Stage experts. The reason is simple: the master of the Sword Tomb, the Cold-Blooded Sword Venerable, died from Qi Deviation during his final breakthrough.
Countless Void Returning Stage experts from the Great Ming Dynasty came for the treasures left behind by the Cold- Cold-Blooded Sword Venerable, especially his weapon— the Half-Demon Artifact Demonic Sword, the Immortal Slaying Executioner, which was formed from the Essence Blood of thousands of powerful figures!
