Meng Chen Makes His Move, Splitting the Asura God with an Axe!

God!?

Shui Bing'er and her companions were all stunned. Shui Bing'er was doing slightly better, since Meng Chen had prepared her for this, but her companions' minds were in complete chaos.

Weren't gods merely legends? How could one really appear? Could people truly cultivate to level one hundred and become gods?!

Within the Chaos Bead, the Snow Empress sensed the scene outside and immediately turned solemn. She said to Shui Bing'er, "Bing'er, quickly let your Master possess you. With a physical body, he'll be able to unleash greater strength!"

Possess her?!

Without a moment's hesitation, Shui Bing'er shyly agreed.

Although that meant her entire body would be exposed before Meng Chen without the slightest concealment, it was still better than letting her Master get hurt!

Yet before Shui Bing'er could do anything, Meng Chen stopped her bold idea.

Meng Chen transmitted, "Bing'er, absolutely not. If I possess you and battle the Asura God, your physical body might be harmed!"

"But..."

Shui Bing'er's face was full of anxiety, so anxious that she could not speak.

But... I'm even more afraid that you'll be hurt, Master...

Before Shui Bing'er could say anything, Meng Chen had already turned to the Asura God. "Kill me? Even if I have fallen into a mere Soul Body, do you think the Asura God can look down on me?"

The Asura God flew into a rage. The dark red radiance of the Asura Demon Sword in His hand suddenly surged, and bolts of dark red lightning shot from the blade, exploding in midair and scattering sparks everywhere.

Those bursting sparks did not fade. Instead, they hovered in the air, turning into countless tiny dark red Light Spots, like innumerable blood-colored eyes that shrouded several miles in every direction within the Asura God's domain.

The clouds in the sky were torn apart by that power, revealing the blue sky beyond them.

Across that blue sky, dark red fissures spread at a visible rate, as though someone had slashed countless bone-deep wounds into the heavens with an invisible sword.

Shui Bing'er looked up at that dark red figure and the spreading cracks in the sky, her heart filled with terror.

Yet her Master's faint, translucent figure remained utterly motionless.

Shui Bing'er could not help but think, If Master were at his peak, how many Asura Gods could he take on?

The Asura God made a casual test strike. The demon sword in His hand descended lightly, requiring no technique at all. The power of laws ignored all defenses and directly attempted to corrode Meng Chen's soul!

Such was the might of the Asura Demon Sword—it directly struck the soul!

Even someone with a physical body could not withstand this move, much less Meng Chen, who was now nothing but a Soul Body.

Thus, the Asura God could already imagine how much pain Meng Chen would soon be in.

However, the scene the Asura God imagined did not appear.

Although Meng Chen's Soul Body was injured, he remained firm and unmoving, as though the vast divine might of the Asura Demon Sword was merely a gentle breeze brushing his face.

This was the Combat Skill Meng Chen had created himself.

Eight Winds Unmoving.

Unmoved by the Eight Winds, seated upright upon a violet-gold lotus.

The Asura God was instantly astonished. Even gods could not remain so composed before His demon sword!

Meng Chen smiled. "My turn."

The Chaos Bead floated from his palm.

Although Meng Chen, in his current Soul Body state, could not truly wield the Chaos Bead, borrowing a portion of its power was still possible.

Chaos Qi gathered in his palm, forming an axe. The axe appeared crude, yet its blade bore all manner of strange patterns. At a single glance, it brought to mind the moment chaos first split apart.

After condensing this axe, Meng Chen's Soul Body became several degrees more illusory.

Then Meng Chen swung the axe, rose into the sky, and cleaved toward the Asura God!

Seven-colored divine light radiated around him, and even the auspicious clouds above turned seven-colored.

Anyone could sense Meng Chen's extraordinary aura. Even the Asura God did not dare be careless.

The Asura Demon Sword slashed down with all its strength. A dark red sword aura shot from its edge, transforming into a gigantic blood-colored sword dozens of zhang long. Carrying the full pressure of a God King, it came cleaving down from the nine heavens.

The axe condensed from Chaos Energy collided with the Asura God's Asura Demon Sword.

The clash between two seemingly peerless weapons was utterly soundless.

Before the sound waves could travel outward, the air had already been annihilated by the energy produced from the collision of the two powers, together with the surrounding space.

Only a visible shockwave spread outward from the point of impact. Wherever it passed, the rifts in space were torn wider, while enormous craters were blasted into the ground.

The Snow Empress had possessed Shui Bing'er early on and forcibly brought her, Xue Wu, and the others away from the battlefield.

This was no longer a battle they could watch from the sidelines.

Before losing control of her body, Shui Bing'er cried out, "Master—"

In the sky, the collision between Meng Chen's axe and the Asura Demon Sword had yet to determine a victor.

The Asura God spat out golden divine blood, and the divine armor on His body shattered. Those were merely minor injuries to His flesh; more terrifying was the fact that He could feel His soul had been damaged!

The Asura God was filled with shock.

This mortal... with the power of his Soul Body alone, he could actually stand shoulder to shoulder with a God?!

He looked at Meng Chen in disbelief. Fortunately, he discovered that Meng Chen was in poor condition as well.

His Soul Body had become even more transparent from that strike, now like a thin layer of crystal that could shatter at any moment.

Yet Meng Chen did not care. He even smiled as he watched the Asura God cough blood. "You're coughing blood already? Are you really that weak, you little mutt?"

His back was straight, his bearing proud.

The Asura God's fury rose once again.

A mere mortal dared to disdain the majesty of a god!

However... he truly did possess such strength.

Before this, the Asura God could never have imagined that a mortal could stand shoulder to shoulder with a God using only a Soul Body.

He was already this formidable with only a Soul Body left. If he recovered his physical body, wouldn't that be disastrous?

Thus, the Asura God put away every trace of contempt and said solemnly, "Mortal, I acknowledge your strength. However, if you think this is enough to look down upon a God King, then you are far too naive!"

The Asura God raised the Asura Demon Sword high, and in that instant, its dark red light erupted to the utmost!

Madness burned in the Asura God's blood-red eyes as He once more began to stimulate His origin Bloodline. Blood-colored sword intent thoroughly dyed the entire sky red!

The boundless laws of slaughter even began to take tangible form, spreading around the Asura God.

Meng Chen immediately grew serious. He recognized this sword.

The Asura Demon Sword entered a state where man and sword became one. Asura God Power, Asura Bloodline, and Asura Soul were all poured into this sword—the Asura Blood Sword, the ultimate killing move with which the Asura God had slain the Dragon God during the great war in the God Realm.

If Meng Chen were at his peak, then with the aid of the Chaos Bead, taking this move would not be effortless, but at most, it would leave a little dust on his clothes.

But now, he was only in a Soul Body state...

Meng Chen closed his eyes. When he opened them again, the black had faded from them, replaced by overflowing chaotic divine light.

"Asura God, you have never gone out to see the world. You have no idea how vast and boundless these Myriad Worlds truly are!"

Cracks began to cover Meng Chen's Soul Body.

The Asura God gritted His teeth. Since slaying the Dragon God, it had been difficult for Him to wield the Asura Blood Sword with His full strength. At this moment, while enduring pain throughout His body, He still had to listen to Meng Chen mock Him.

"You insignificant ant, and you still dare quibble at death's door!"

The Asura God slashed down with His sword!

Meng Chen met it with his axe as well. Heaven and earth instantly fell into dead silence as endless light and heat burst forth, even shaking the earth.

Far away in Heaven Dou City, a sudden earthquake struck.

Leng Qishuang hurriedly steadied herself with Soul Power, then suddenly saw an enormous sphere of light rise in the distance, as though another sun had appeared.

A bad feeling suddenly welled up in her heart.

"Bing'er Yue'er, all seven of you must stay safe..."

At the center of the light, the Asura God watched helplessly as His Asura Blood Sword was broken, while Meng Chen's axe struck Him solidly.

"Ahhh!"

The Asura God let out a miserable scream. Meng Chen's Soul Body was likewise covered in cracks, and his figure began dispersing from his fingertips, turning into starlight.

Meng Chen could not help but smile bitterly. It seemed he would have to sleep again...

In the distance, the Snow Empress had exhausted all her strength to barely protect Shui Bing'er and the other seven.

"Senior Snow Empress, hurry and take me to see how my Master is!"

The moment the battle's aftershocks subsided, Shui Bing'er could not wait to urge the Snow Empress toward Meng Chen. Her voice was filled with anxiety.

Thus, the Snow Empress came before Meng Chen and returned control of Shui Bing'er's body to her. Looking at Meng Chen, who was gradually dissipating, Shui Bing'er felt nothing but pain in her heart.

She even tasted blood in her throat and spat out a mouthful of blood. "No! Master!"

Meng Chen wanted to say something, but in the end, he could not speak. His body burst apart into scattered starlight, then gathered together and sank into Shui Bing'er's chest.
