Chapter 1644: Emperor Guan Has No Opponents

Yaoguang, a celestial talent, had reached the Quasi-Emperor realm! He was always radiant, like a glowing deity, his hair shimmering with golden light, making people feel as if they were basking in a spring breeze.

Yet, at this moment, he exploded. Before he died, he was still waving at everyone, his brilliant smile eternally frozen, suspended in the void, leaving an unforgettable impression.

"He's dead, just like that...""I don't believe it. This is Yaoguang! How could he die? He's a peerless talent who, though not a Quasi-Emperor, already possessed Quasi-Emperor divine abilities!"Even the big black dog looked doubtful, unable to believe the outcome, its face filled with astonishment.

But the fact was undeniable: his slender, upright body had shattered, and five-colored divine blood splattered, brilliant yet tragically beautiful.

As Yaoguang's physical body disintegrated, the chaotic energy enveloping him instantly transformed into thousands upon thousands of strands, each imbued with a unique Dao charm.

Finally, this body, which no one of his generation except the Saint Body Ye Fan could destroy, was utterly obliterated. It crumbled inch by inch into a bloody mist, leaving not even a single lustrous white bone. One could only imagine the intensity of the battle between the two earlier.

"Eh, the primordial energy is indestructible?!" People looked confused as thousands of light beams instantly burst from the blood mist, each merging with a strand of chaotic light.

Within each wisp of primordial energy, a Dao principle manifested, and faintly, bodies appeared—these were the primordial Dao, the geniuses who had been absorbed by the Heaven Devouring Demonic Art.

Everyone's heart trembled. How many body types were these? For someone as powerful as Yaoguang to achieve this, integrating the primordial essence of various physiques, he was clearly aiming to become a Chaos Body!

"One, two..."Someone counted carefully and found exactly six thousand four hundred types of primordial essence. This was utterly astonishing, leaving everyone speechless.

"Most weren't killed by him. Many were tainted with death energy, originating from bodies in tombs, while only a small portion were killed by him. It seems his heart wasn't as ruthless as we imagined."

People lamented the loss of such a brilliant Emperor Star of his generation as Yaoguang; it was truly a pity for such an unparalleled Imperial Seed to perish like this.

People noticed that there were ten thousand strands of chaotic energy in total, but only six thousand four hundred wisps of primordial energy. Their combination was not yet complete, lacking three thousand six hundred wisps.

"So, a true Chaos Body requires at least ten thousand types of Great Dao primordial essence to merge before it can manifest?" Everyone gasped, realizing how terrifyingly astonishing this fact was.

Yaoguang had advanced significantly on this path; he had already transformed into an invincible physique. As things stood, among those of his generation, only the Saint Body Ye Fan could shatter his physical shell.

"How incredibly strong! How powerful would a true Chaos Body be? If Yaoguang had continued on this path, how terrifying would he have become?"

"Yaoguang was proud; he didn't want to continue on this path to become a Chaos Body. He wanted to transcend it, believing himself to be the strongest," an aboriginal in the city suddenly stated.

Li Tian and Yan Yixi's eyes almost popped out. It was the bearded man again; he had returned, reappearing to comment on the battle.

"Yaoguang had discovered that if he continued, it wouldn't be him controlling the Dao, but the Dao controlling him. This technique had imprisoned him; the Heaven Devouring Demonic Art had become the master. Unless he took a stronger step, truly transcending, transforming, and breaking free," the bearded man said with a solemn expression, his eyes burning with insight into the truth.

"Yaoguang wanted to forge his own path, shatter the demonic body, and not become this Chaos Body. What a pity he perished," others sighed softly.

Ten thousand strands of chaotic energy collided, and six thousand four hundred wisps of primordial energy instantly merged. At that moment, dazzling light illuminated the entire universe, and a figure appeared.

Everyone was startled; Yaoguang had reappeared! He had materialized again, as the six thousand four hundred wisps of primordial energy merged and melted into a new figure, possessing unparalleled grace.

"I knew it! How could he die so easily? The Undying Heavenly Art hasn't been revealed yet. Is this its manifestation, a divine fetus transforming from a demonic body?" The Black Emperor muttered to itself, its expression extremely solemn.

Everyone was stunned. Was this not the end, but merely the beginning? It was shocking!

However, reality once again defied their expectations. Yaoguang reappeared with unparalleled grace, but the moment he looked at everyone, he exploded with a bang, transforming into six thousand four hundred beams of light that shot towards the four corners of the universe.

Everything was unexpected. Each wisp of vital energy darted towards a different coordinate, and after a burst of extreme brilliance, they finally vanished completely, leaving nothing behind.

The crowd stared in a daze, as if turned to stone.

The starry sky dimmed, and Ye Fan returned to the city.

The bearded man had vanished again, having already left. Li Tian and Yan Yixi were exasperated, feeling utterly helpless. This mysterious man with the full beard was truly baffling.

Within the city, many people had disappeared. While Ye Fan and Yaoguang battled in the cosmos, some nervous contenders for the Imperial Road had fled, fearing retribution.

Ye Fan's lips curved into a faint, cold smile as he shook his head. He hadn't intervened, allowing those people to escape. To his surprise, Yin Tiande was still there, showing no signs of leaving.

The Divine Venerable was also present, his expression indifferent, and he had not fled.

"To leave without even making a move would be rather pathetic, wouldn't it? Although it's not the best time for a duel, I can't just walk away," Yin Tiande said with a self-deprecating tone.

He wasn't particularly imposing, but he possessed a naturally occurring Dao charm, like an ancient emperor descended to the world. Amidst his ethereal presence, a sharp, formidable aura lay dormant, inspiring awe.

In the Ziwei Star Domain, his younger brother Yin Tianzhi had provoked Ye Fan and was slain. After that, he and Ye Fan had clashed again over the struggle for the ancient divine scriptures.

This man was ruthless; for the sake of the ancient divine scriptures, he had even killed the father of his sworn brother. He was certainly not someone to be trifled with. Furthermore, he had even touched upon the Divine Prohibited Domain, making him the first person Ye Fan had encountered with such an ability. How many such individuals could there be in the entire universe?

Yin Tiande was about to make his move, sparking widespread discussion. He was an incredibly formidable figure; ever since he embarked on the Imperial Road, no one had been able to contend with him.

He stepped upward, entering the starry sky, where vast purple energy surged for thirty thousand li, shaking the cosmos. He turned back, gazing at Ye Fan from a distance, prepared for battle.

Ye Fan said nothing, ascending directly into the heavens.

"Why bother? He's about to enter the Quasi-Emperor realm at any moment. Why choose to fight at this time? Waiting a bit longer would be the best opportunity," many people wondered, looking perplexed.

Hadn't Yaoguang's fate served as a sufficient warning to him? Yet he still intended to fight, with only one possible outcome: demise.

"Roar..."Yin Tiande let out a roar that caused the stars to tremble. Though not particularly imposing in stature, his body was more daunting than a giant's. Above his head, three streams of pure energy shot forth, manifesting into three identical figures that charged forward with lethal intent.

This was a supreme divine art, capable of instantly boosting combat power by manifesting three Dao-selves identical to the true body. Their participation in battle could instantly turn the tide.

Yin Tiande deployed such a killer move right from the start, naturally considering Ye Fan his strongest opponent.

The three Yin Tiandes charged together: one wielded the Heavenly Venerate Treasure Seal, another held the Dao Venerate Treasure Vase, and the third brandished an Imperial Fist. They unleashed supreme Dao principles, rushing forward to attack.

The three charged with ultimate power and might. Their aura, the blood-boiling force, shook the starry sky, making everyone's hearts feel as if they would tear apart.

How formidable Yin Tiande was! What terrifying combat power! This was the unanimous thought of everyone present, all utterly shocked. This was his true strength, which allowed him to dominate the Imperial Road!

Like Yaoguang, he had one foot in the Quasi-Emperor realm, ready to undergo tribulation at any moment and become a supreme Quasi-Emperor, looking down upon this universe.

The figure wielding the Heavenly Venerate Treasure Seal was solemn and majestic, suppressing all evil, eliminating all enemies in the world, and making all Dao submit.

The one holding the treasure vase was immensely majestic; the immortal vase in their hand could contain all things in heaven and earth, intending to refine their opponent.

The one wielding the Imperial Fist was ultimately rigid and blazing, like a burning immortal fire, with raging flames encircling their body, causing the universe to collapse around them.

Each of these powers was peerless, capable of bringing regret to other Great Saints. This was a supreme expert touching upon the Quasi-Emperor realm, unmatched by others.

However, these three powerful Dao-bodies were unable to succeed at this moment; they were blocked.

Ye Fan made his move, his palm tearing through eternity. Brilliant beams of light illuminated the four poles of heaven and earth. Simple yet profound, turning decay into wonder, as his right hand pressed down, the three Dao-bodies fractured inch by inch, then exploded.

Blood and bone splattered, creating a scene of despair. Yin Tiande's powerful attack was useless, disintegrated by a single palm strike.

"Boom!"Suddenly, a terrifying aura erupted, startling the universe and shaking the starry sky around the Fifth Imperial Pass, making everyone's souls tremble uncontrollably.

"A Quasi-Emperor! Another Quasi-Emperor!" many people cried out.

They looked forward, searching for the figure, and were all stunned. It was Yin Tiande's true body, now radiating unparalleled power.

"How is this possible? How did he suddenly become a Quasi-Emperor?" Many people couldn't believe it.

"No, he's not a true Quasi-Emperor, but he seems to possess that level of combat power!"

"It's... Divine Prohibited!" The Black Emperor exclaimed, revealing the truth.

Every individual possessing Divine Prohibited power was destined to become a supreme expert who would shake the universe. Such people would eventually be virtually invincible across heaven and earth.

Yin Tiande was precisely such a person. He had had time to escape earlier but chose not to. Instead, he quietly activated his profound cultivation, triggering the Divine Prohibited state, and only when successful did he enter the battle.

He was unwilling to retreat just like that; he wanted to prove that he could fight against a Quasi-Emperor in defiance of the odds, that he was the strongest among his peers in the universe.

"Rumble!"A fierce battle erupted as the two figures charged at each other. One possessed boundless Dao techniques, overwhelming everything, with divine chains of order engulfing the starry sky, causing many stars to explode. The other, with an unparalleled physical body, proved eternity with his form, tearing through everything and destroying countless Dao.

Explosions of light erupted one after another, and stars turned to dust. It was a catastrophic battle, with both combatants clashing violently.

Everyone was stunned. What kind of situation was this? Had a Great Saint risen to prominence? He was actually confronting a Quasi-Emperor with the Divine Prohibited state!

"The Saint Body Ye Fan also possesses Divine Prohibited power. If he were to unleash it..." Someone stated this fact, and the mere thought of it was terrifying.

"What a pity. Yin Tiande ultimately didn't become a Quasi-Emperor; he couldn't defy the heavens!"

Amidst a burst of dazzling light, Yin Tiande flew backward, covered in blood. Although he possessed Divine Prohibited power, which theoretically allowed him to contend with a Quasi-Emperor, he ultimately proved no match in a true battle.

He was almost utterly shattered, his body breaking apart. He struggled to use divine arts to heal his injuries.

Ye Fan followed up, intending to kill him.

With a boom, a burst of purple light suddenly erupted. It was a purple gourd, crystal clear, with purple light flowing all over its surface, vibrantly beautiful. It possessed the power to devour the heavens, and astonishingly, it was a Quasi-Emperor artifact!

A light flickered in Ye Fan's eyes. For the first time in this place, he unleashed the Heavenly Emperor Fist, shaking the cosmos and exploding with his strongest combat intent. With a soft pop, the purple-gold gourd shattered.

This outcome sent shivers down everyone's spines, their hair standing on end, and their scalps tingling. They were all utterly terrified.

That was a Quasi-Emperor artifact, yet it was shattered by a single punch!
