Chapter 789: The One Called Chen Chu is that Insane (II)

When An Fuqing reached the Ninth Heavenly Realm within a year and used the four great sword wills to open a phantom world of the sword, her talent immediately caused a stir among the upper ranks of the Federation. This level of ability was no weaker than Xiao Tianyi in his prime.

Unfortunately, Chen Chu overshadowed her achievements. Otherwise, the Federation would have widely promoted her as a symbol of inspiration.

"No one expected the first to step up would be the human race’s most monstrous genius. Since that’s the case, there’s no need to go through all three rounds. Let’s settle this with one decisive battle."

As he spoke, Bordea looked down, his gaze landing on a young man wearing a beautiful crown, with a golden feather pattern glowing at the center of his brow.

"Augbas, you go. Among those at the beginning stage of the ninth level, you’re the only one who can somewhat put up a fight."

Hearing this, the crowned youth rolled his eyes. "My lord Bordea, I won’t claim to be invincible among all others who are at my level, but saying I can only somewhat put up a fight is underestimating me a little, don’t you think?"

Bordea smiled faintly. "I guess we'll see once you're on the battlefield."

From their exchange, it was clear that this Augbas was no ordinary genius within the Heavenly Feathered Race.

"Fine, I’ll go." As he spoke, a fierce battle will flared in Augbas’ eyes. The two pairs of golden wings behind him, which were almost completely formed by light, trembled slightly. Then, in the next instant, he appeared in the arena, trailed by dozens of afterimages.

Facing the black-haired girl standing within her Sword Domain, Augbas calmly said, "I cultivate the Eternal Scripture of the Divine Phoenix. It's one of the most powerful divine canons of our race. From here on, be careful."

"I'm ready." An Fuqing replied, her expression turning slightly serious.

From this Heavenly Feathered youth, whose aura matched the early stage of the Ninth Heavenly Realm, she felt a strong sense of danger. This individual was powerful.

Boom!

Behind Augbas, the two pairs of golden wings burst forth with dazzling radiance, releasing immense energy fluctuations. It was as if those wings weren’t just for flight, but his very source of energy, like his personal power reactor.

Amid the dazzling golden light, a towering phantom of a divine mountain rose behind Augbas, reaching a height of a thousand meters. It resembled the character for "mountain" formed from divine script, radiating an overwhelming aura of gravity that compressed the air around him until it exploded, sending rings of white shockwaves rolling out in all directions.

"Ten Thousand Layers of the Divine Mountain—Suppress!"

Boom!

With a long roar from Augbas, more and more mountain phantoms materialized behind him. In an instant, the entire arena trembled beneath the weight of their mighty presence.

As the projections of the mountain loomed over An Fuqing’s head, her sword domain began to quake violently. Sword qi scattered and dispersed, the ground beneath her sank, and the pressure became overwhelming.

Countless sword qi reflections flickered in An Fuqing’s eyes. Then, in the next moment, an even sharper sword will surged into the sky.

When she slowly drew the black battle sword from her back, her aura climbed to its absolute peak. It was as if an unmatched Sword God had descended upon the world.

Augbas extended his hand toward her and pressed downward. "Suppress!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Mountain after mountain, each carrying the weight of billions of tons, came crashing down. Space itself rippled and shuddered from the brutal and tyrannical force. The roar of destruction echoed through the world, as if these divine mountains were enough to flatten the heavens and the earth.

Facing the overwhelming descent of these mountains, An Fuqing’s eyes mirrored an entire world of Sword Dao. Human and sword became one, rising into the sky as a single, unstoppable force.

Boom!

A black sword light hundreds of meters long tore through space itself, leaving behind a pitch-black rift. It was unimaginably sharp, slicing through seventeen mountains in a single strike.

By that point, however, the sword light had begun to lose momentum. In the next instant, it shifted to an azure hue and exploded with blinding speed, like a streak of light weaving through dozens of mountain phantoms.

One by one, the mountain projections came crashing down, detonating in thunderous explosions. The ground within ten kilometers collapsed, and the shockwaves of energy swept across a range of several dozen kilometers.

As he watched the azure sword light tear through everything, Augbas’ golden light wings flared with even greater brilliance. In a low, chanting voice, he murmured, "Eternal Phoenix Reign."

Boom!

Behind him, a pair of phoenix wings that looked like divine blazing text unfurled to cover a thousand meters, radiating a scorching aura powerful enough to boil oceans and burn the skies.

Boom!

The phoenix wings flapped, unleashing a towering fire tsunami over a hundred meters high that surged toward An Fuqing's sword light. The sea of fire swept across the land, melting the ground into molten lava wherever it passed.

Just as the inferno descended, however, the azure sword light turned crystalline red, releasing a brilliant glow.

Within the dreamlike, illusory red sword light, the sea of flames passed through without a sound, as if it had shifted from solid to shadow, leaving no harm in its wake. This was the Disillusionment of Life and Death.

Witnessing this scene from the sky, Heavenly King Zhenwu couldn’t help but say, "To use sword will to touch upon the laws of illusion and reality... When human and sword become one, it is also a union with the laws themselves. Remarkable."

Suddenly, the heavens echoed once more with Augbas’ chant. "I am Eternity. I am heaven and earth. I command and govern the powers of all creation!"

Behind him, the golden radiance intensified, forming vast phantoms: a colossal beast roaring to the sky, a towering golden divine tree reaching the heavens, and a mighty river that surged endlessly.

Each of these phantoms was born of divine scripture, imbued with overwhelming power. They had nearly reached the level of recreating all of reality through divine scripture alone.

The colossal beast phantom roared, shaking heaven and earth, and charged straight at An Fuqing like a late-stage level 9 monster. At the same time, the golden tree behind Augbas blazed with light, sending thousands of shimmering golden leaves shooting outward.

"Good! I've been waiting for this!" A look of excitement lit up An Fuqing’s face. Behind her, three battle swords shot into the sky, fusing into four brilliant sword lights—red, black, azure, and gray.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The four sword lights spiraled and intertwined, shredding apart divine scripture phantoms whose power rivaled the peak of the Ninth Heavenly Realm. The battle arena, spanning dozens of kilometers, exploded and collapsed under their clash.

The red sword light of the Disillusionment of Life and Death shifted between illusion and reality. The black sword light of the Spatial Tear was incomparably sharp, while the azure sword light of the Wind Spirit Instant Slash was swift as lightning.

Then there was the seemingly unremarkable gray sword light of the Soul Annihilation. Yet it radiated an aura that made Augbas’ spirit recoil in pain, forcing him to avoid direct confrontation.

An Fuqing’s sword light moved at a speed beyond belief, but Augbas was equally astonishing. With a flap of the blazing light wings behind him, he vanished and reappeared over ten kilometers away.

In his hands, projections of various divine scriptures reflecting all of creation continuously condensed. Each one carried immense power, infused with a distinct force that, when projected, made it feel as though An Fuqing wasn’t facing a single opponent, but the entire world itself.

"An Fuqing has become so strong!" Gabriella gasped in awe.

Luo Fei’s expression turned slightly grave. "That Heavenly Feathered fighter is strong, too. His cultivation is only at the beginning stage of the Ninth Heavenly Realm, yet he can sustain peak-level bursts for so long. It's like his power is endless."

At that moment, it wasn’t just Luo Fei and Gabriella watching. High-level cultivators from both sides were also glued to the battle.

The human cultivators were focused on An Fuqing’s seamless transformations of sword qi and her masterful control over her sword light. Meanwhile, the high-level figures of the Heavenly Feathered Race were fixated on the divine scripture phantoms summoned by Augbas.

Suddenly, Augbas soared into the sky, rising to ten thousand meters. Behind him, his flame wings unfurled, spanning a kilometer.

"One strike to decide the winner!"

Boom!

Behind Augbas, ninety-nine solidified scriptures lit up and fused together, forming a golden phantom over a thousand meters tall that radiated a majestic, ancient aura.

In that instant, all of heaven and earth trembled. This power had already surpassed the transcendent realm, touching the threshold of the mythical domain. Someone only at the early stage of the Ninth Heavenly Realm being able to unleash a near mythical-level attack left everyone watching in stunned disbelief.

Even Xia Zuo could only unleash power comparable to the peak of the Ninth Heavenly Realm when he had been at the same stage.

In the sky above, the golden figure formed a massive hand seal, compressing it into a colossal fist that came crashing down with an overwhelming gravitational force. The skies shook violently, and thunderous booms echoed across the heavens.

At the same time, the projection of the Sword World took form around An Fuqing with four towering sword lights in each corner, piercing sky and earth.

Buzz!

The Sword World was like a vast battle formation, with An Fuqing standing at its very center.

Looking up at the descending fist of destruction, An Fuqing's eyes reflected the Sword World. She extended her arms, and in an instant, the formation trembled as the sword lights in the four corners surged and merged into one.

Boom!

In an instant, a pure black sword qi a thousand meters long surged into the sky, radiating an aura of destruction that made everyone’s hearts tremble. The level of power it released was already at the mythical-level.

This was the Slayer of Immortals. It was a combination that used the self as the sword, the world as the formation, and the four sword wills as its bones.

Everyone watched as the black sword qi collided with the ancient golden fist. For a brief moment, everything went silent. Then, suddenly, a blinding black-and-gold light exploded outward.

Boom!

Ten thousand meters above the ground, the explosion sent out massive shockwaves. Blinding black-gold light burst forth, expanding in wave after wave of white shockwaves that swept across more than a hundred kilometers.

The formless waves of power sent violent tremors through the sky. Fierce winds roared, and Luo Fei and the others had to release their full strength just to remain standing.

It wasn’t until over ten minutes later that the blast finally faded. The smoke cleared, revealing a cracked, shattered arena, with two figures standing a kilometer apart: An Fuqing and Augbas.

At that moment, both of their auras were slightly weakened. Judging by their condition, it looked like a draw.

Augbas stood with his hands behind his back, looking toward An Fuqing in admiration. "You’re incredibly strong. Easily the most powerful opponent I’ve faced at our level."

An Fuqing calmly replied, "You’re not weak either. I wasn’t confident I could beat you."

Hearing that, a faint smile appeared on Augbas’s face. "Allow me to introduce myself properly. I’m Augbas, from the main academy of the Heavenly Feathered Sacred City. I'm ranked number one among the younger generation.

"With talent like yours, I imagine you must be the strongest among the human youth. I don’t believe there’s anyone more outstanding than you in your race."

Augbas wasn’t being arrogant. To break through the limits of the beginning stage of the Ninth Heavenly Realm and unleash mythical-level power was a rare achievement, even among the Purgatory Clan. Within the current generation of the Heavenly Feathered Race, he was the only one who could achieve this.

An Fuqing calmly replied, "I’m An Fuqing, a second-year student at Nantian Martial Arts High School. However, among the younger generation of humans, I’m at best in the top three, not number one."

"What? There’s someone stronger than you among the humans?" Augbas was momentarily stunned, unable to believe it.

Previously, the Heavenly Feathered Race had observed the frontline battle, but quickly left for this place after the battle ended, so they hadn’t witnessed the confrontation between the demon god and Qian Tian.

An Fuqing nodded slightly. "That’s right. The person’s name is Chen Chu, a guy who broke through from the transcendent to the mythical level in just one year, or ten day-cycles.

"He once killed several Purgatory demon kings when he was at the beginning stage of the Ninth Heavenly Realm. Achieving such feats is something I naturally can’t do at the moment."

Hearing this, the young warriors of the Heavenly Feathered Race all gasped in disbelief, with some even exclaiming, "How is that possible?"

From afar, on the edge of the arena, Luo Fei chuckled and said, "There’s nothing impossible about it. During the frontline battle between our race and the Purgatory Empire, Chen Chu ventured deep into the Purgatory Empire by himself."

"At the middle stage of the mythical level, he killed seven demon kings, one great demon king, and one peak titan-level demonic dragon. He managed to escape even while being surrounded by three demon gods."

By the time Luo Fei finished, every member of the Heavenly Feathered Race was frozen in shock.

Even the king-level powerhouses in the sky, like Bordea, were left doubting if they had heard correctly.

In response to Bordea’s questioning gaze, Heavenly King Xuanwu smiled slightly. "Bordea, you didn’t hear wrong. It really is as exaggerated as it sounds, though I was also a bit stunned at the time."
