Nine Realms Sword Emperor
Chapter 628 - 629: The Realm of Shattered Life

Chapter 628: Chapter 629: The Realm of Shattered Life

In the blink of an eye, Chu Fengmian brought forth all his strength with ferocity.

His veins boiled under the oppressive force of Lu Qianren’s terrifying power, coming to life within him.

His bloodline was that of the Ancient Battle Dragon, a creature that would face even stronger beings without faltering.

The Battle Dragon Technique was such that it drew out its most fearsome power only when facing increasingly powerful opponents.

"War Dragon’s Might!"

Chu Fengmian’s body roared violently, transforming into the Ancient Battle Dragon, wielding the Ancestor Dragon Supreme Sword as he struck fiercely with one blow.

Numerous powerful forces emanated from Chu Fengmian’s body.

The Ancient Battle Dragon Bloodline, his Nine Domains Sword Technique, and the Ancient Slaughter God Illusion—all were invoked and converged, enhancing the power surging through Chu Fengmian’s body.

"Even if it’s someone who has stepped onto the Life and Death Platform, suppressing me is impossible!"

Chu Fengmian bellowed furiously.

"Hiss!"

This sword, a pure manifestation of power, was fiercely swung, its contained force terrifying to an extreme degree.

He aimed at the sky above, striking directly.

"Boom!"

The two forces collided wildly in mid-air, Chu Fengmian’s Sword Edge clashing against Lu Qianren’s finger without any effect.

On this finger, Chu Fengmian sensed a flavor that transcended life and death, an utterly distinct force compared to any Martial Artist.

Disintegration!

The first level of the Life and Death Platform, the realm of Disintegration.

Lu Qianren had now stepped into this realm, aiming to shatter his own fate and truly transcend everything.

Only those who reached this realm could be considered true powerhouses with the credentials to be remembered.

As Chu Fengmian thought.

The force from this one finger had already struck Chu Fengmian’s body.

"Clash!"

Chu Fengmian’s body was pummeled directly by the force of this finger, breaking him down bit by bit.

Not only did the force crush Chu Fengmian’s sword blade, but it also concentrated fully upon his body, causing it to shatter.

Cracks spread as if Chu Fengmian’s body were a Spiritual Artifact, breaking apart.

Even though Chu Fengmian’s body had reached an extreme refinement, undergoing the tempering of celestial crystals, it still fractured under the pressure of Lu Qianren’s finger.

Such was the strength of an ancient relic that had stepped onto the Life and Death Platform.

However, even faced with such formidable power, Chu Fengmian’s expression remained resolute as ever.

His body began to break apart, but almost simultaneously, the War Dragon’s Might within his bloodline was fully unleashed.

The branches of the Sacred Tree from the previous holy ceremony, now all their power was fused into Chu Fengmian’s Dragon Bloodline.

At that critical moment, all his power had been unleashed.

Instantly, Chu Fengmian’s shattered body incredibly reconstituted itself—breaking under the force of Lu Qianren’s finger while simultaneously, the power of his bloodline continuously remade him.

"War Dragon is indestructible! I am the War Dragon!"

Chu Fengmian roared. His body, suddenly and completely reassembled, even managed to withstand that finger’s force.

"Not dead?"

"How is that possible? This kid actually withstood a finger from Elder Lu Qianren. Although it was just a finger’s force, it still surpassed the peak of the Life and Death Realm."

"He looks completely unharmed? Such terrifying restoration Spiritual Power. Just now his injuries were severe; even if he didn’t die, he should have been critically injured, but now he seems to have completely recovered."

"This isn’t human, his recovery ability even surpasses that of demons! How did he achieve this!"

One martial artist after another witnessed Chu Fengmian remarkably withstand this blow, finding it utterly unbelievable.

This was a blow from an ancestor. It should be known that even if everyone present united, they likely wouldn’t stand a chance against this ancestor.

Stepping onto the Life and Death Platform signifies transcending the peaks of the Life and Death Realm. Under such a blow, Chu Fengmian incredibly survived.

It was simply unbelievable.

Especially since moments ago, Chu Fengmian’s body had begun to shatter; under those circumstances, even if he had resisted, severe injury should have been inevitable.

But now, there wasn’t a single injury on Chu Fengmian’s body; the strength of his War Dragon bloodline and the energy from the Tree of Jianmu had completely restored him.

This kind of recovery ability surpassed that of demonic beasts and exceeded any other creature’s capabilities.

Even some Body Cultivators could not achieve this; even the Immortal Demon Lord would have perished under that finger, yet Chu Fengmian truly survived.

"Crushed Destiny Realm, truly formidable; a step on the Life and Death Platform is a completely different realm altogether, this kind of power surpasses the peak of the Life and Death Realm by tens, even hundreds of times!"

Chu Fengmian uttered, feeling a lingering fear in his heart.

His expression seemed calm, but his heart greatly relieved.

That one finger had nearly broken his critical point; just now, Chu Fengmian looked uninjured.

That same finger had nearly completely destroyed Chu Fengmian’s body; at that point, even if his recovery power were ten thousand times stronger, it would have been impossible to heal.

Fortunately, Lu Qianren had only stepped into the First Layer of the Life and Death Platform, the Crushed Destiny Realm.

If he had reached the Second Layer, the Colossal Spirit Realm, Chu Fengmian would definitely have been obliterated by that finger, and he wouldn’t have been able to resist.

Even so, Chu Fengmian barely blocked it.

If it weren’t for the integration of the Tree of Jianmu’s power into his blood, enhancing his recovery capability significantly, he likely wouldn’t have recovered just now.

It can be said that all of this was indispensable; an opportunity so rare it comes once in ten thousand times.

By a narrow margin, Chu Fengmian had nearly perished at the hands of Lu Qianren.

Lu Qianren claimed he wanted to suppress Chu Fengmian, but this move was a genuine killing strike.

"The people at the academy protect me so much; they possibly know that I received the legacy of the Northern Sage of the Assembly of Saints! Lu Qianren knows it too, so he wants to kill me, to nip me in the bud!"

Suddenly being protected by the elder of the Northern Sanctuary, Chu Fengmian naturally guessed their motives.

The Assembly of Saints never lacked informants from the Northern Sanctuary; naturally, the news of Chu Fengmian receiving the legacy would also reach them.

It seems that now, Lu Qianren intends to use this opportunity to directly eliminate Chu Fengmian, removing this threat.
