Chapter 685: Divine Descent

Can I really smash it to bits?

The terrifying aura emerging from the real-and-fake eye sent Lu Ye’s first thought spiraling straight to this.

Previously, that eye was nothing but a fake; the real one should have been in the Derived World. But now, with the aura erupting, there was no doubt this thing had shifted its real form here.

A god-tier presence.

It hadn’t fully arrived yet.

Perfect! This meant Lu Ye could gather his strength.

Layers of halos blossomed around Lu Ye, accumulating as his right arm became increasingly horrifying with each infusion of light.

The void twisted, and chaos churned.

Just the emitted aura reached such alarming levels—what would a released strike do?

As Lu Ye was gathering his Celestial Lord Fist, he couldn’t help but marvel at how strong he had become.

This power far surpassed his previous self during the Holy Tribulation from his last life—extremely terrifying.

If his previous self had been in this state during the tribulation, even with eight women betraying him and being afflicted by eight kinds of poison, surrounded by numerous Celestial Lords during the Eternal Great Tribulation, what was there to fear?

No one could stop him from becoming a Saint.

Not a soul could.

The real-and-fake realm beast hadn’t fully transformed yet, but it was already sensing a threat.

Fortunately, the threat wasn’t particularly strong.

The real-and-fake eye continued to become real, and the reflections of various Celestial Lords within it started to solidify as well.

Celestial Lords, Great Emperors, even Quasi-Emperors—all gazes were directed towards the sky.

All eyes were on Lu Ye’s form.

Undeniably, even with the Celestial Lords coming in droves and the terrifying aura emanating from the eye, everyone still harbored strong confidence in Lu Ye.

Because Lu Ye was simply too strong.

He had fought countless battles; how many times had he actually lost?

He wouldn’t lose, especially at such a critical moment. Everyone believed that Lu Ye could not possibly be defeated!

The moment the real-and-fake eye fully manifested,

The powerful divine aura exploded completely.

The sky seemed entirely covered by thick, dark clouds, and the entire world was filled with a terrifying pressure.

Although gods aren’t Saints,

They can still unleash powers comparable to those of a Saint.

A god fused with the world’s essence, when fighting solo, can endure the attacks of a Saint for quite a while.

It was at this moment that Lu Ye struck.

The Celestial Lord Fist erupted to its peak.

After such an extended buildup, it demonstrated astonishing lethality.

The terrifying aura enveloping the heavens and earth was violently torn apart by this punch.

A gigantic fist imprint slashed through the sky, leaving a long vacuum trail as it charged toward the real-and-fake realm beast.

At the same time, fifty Celestial Lords appeared around Lu Ye, ready to spring into action alongside him.

“Boom!”

The real-and-fake eye erupted with divine light, surging toward the fist imprint.

In that instant, half of Lu Ye’s fist imprint turned to nothingness, and the remaining half collided fiercely with the beam of light.

The fist imprint pressed against the light as it surged forward.

A powerful shockwave blasted outward in all directions.

“Break for me!”

Lu Ye stepped forward.

The fist imprint seemed to have been provoked and smashed ahead.

The light beam was crushed by half of the fist imprint, revealing a layer of transparent shield around the real-and-fake eye. The dim fist imprint crashed onto the shield, finally disappearing.

At that moment, even the real-and-fake realm beast broke into a cold sweat, its pupils contracting.

That punch was truly terrifying.

However, this was a punch that Lu Ye had charged for a long time.

A multitude of Celestial Lords had already struck.

“Boom!”

Countless rays of light smashed towards Lu Ye.

The shield expanded.

Lu Ye braced himself against all the Celestial Lord attacks, breaching through all the light as he raced toward the real-and-fake eye.

The sky was showered with fist imprints like falling meteors.

The brilliance of the Yin and Yang surged in from a distance, pouring into the fist imprint.

At that moment, the eye erupted with countless sparks of lightning, the electric arcs colliding with the fist imprint as all the Celestial Lords scrambled to attack Lu Ye.

Violent waves rippled through the heavens and earth.

At this instant, the ground split apart, and the void cracked open in numerous places. What once was merely the law of the Great Sage of the Nine Heavens disappeared, but the Nine Heavens still remained.

Now, the vast Nine Heavens began to show countless fractures.

Mountains crumbled, rivers flowed backward.

Rampaging dust choked the sun.

The Nine Heavens were collapsing.

Not only were the Nine Heavens collapsing; the terrifying aftermath of this battle even spread beyond the Nine Heavens.

The giant star trembled under the impact, unavoidable fissures appeared, and the surface flowed with crimson magma, resembling the veins of a star—spooky and surreal.

Despairing wails filled the world.

In an instant, Lu Ye understood; they were deliberate.

They aimed not only to fight him but also to destroy this Primordial World beyond recognition, delivering a crippling blow to this inherently frail realm.

A battle was unfolding in the void.

The Great Sage of the Nine Heavens, the Invincible Sword Saint, and the Crimson Dust Saint sprang back into action.

A war raged on inside and out.

Realizing the intentions of this group, Lu Ye activated his supreme divine powers, igniting all his potential, his essence burning. He needed to swiftly deal with the real-and-fake realm beast.

Otherwise, who knew what havoc this world might endure? It could end up a veritable sieve, facing the risk of total collapse.

Two beings on par with Saints, coupled with the participation of fifty Celestial Lords,

It could be said that such fierce battles had been rare since this realm’s formation.

The eye of the real-and-fake realm beast sprouted numerous blood vessels, looking like dragon tendons, crisscrossing around it. The entire realm bore witness to scenes of shifting reality.

Lu Ye’s form was nearing his limits.

Even the Celestial Lords appeared to be swarming around the real-and-fake eye, attacking wildly.

His fists were the hardest objects in existence.

The blood vessels noticeably thickened as Lu Ye’s assault rained down like a tempest, each punch fueled by his utmost effort, its strength rivaling that of a god.

Lu Ye had no time to dawdle with the real-and-fake eye; he needed to dispatch the realm beast quickly and restore peace to this world.

The other Celestial Lords were also unleashing their strikes, and due to Lu Ye’s rapid pace, they didn’t even care about landing hits on him; they just needed to get their attacks out.

Hitting Lu Ye would be great, but even if they missed, they could still wreak havoc on this realm—anyway, it was a win either way.

The Primordial Dao Lord and his crew weren’t idle, either.

This fight had escalated beyond their participation; they began collaborating with the Great Emperors to combat the aftermath of the battle. Otherwise, the destruction would be too overwhelming.

But that backlash had even the Celestial Lords coughing up blood. The Great Emperors, working to suppress the battle’s fallout, were having their bodies shattered.

The cries of the living echoed in despair.
