Chapter 301: Desperation!
Although the Ancestral God Corpse was an unparalleled powerhouse in life, it was now merely a soulless corpse, instinctively following the life force to find Sun Zhe and his companions. Now that Sun Zhe and his companions suddenly retracted their aura, the Ancestral God Corpse was momentarily caught off guard and froze for a moment.
At that instant, Sun Zhe and Nie Yuan immediately surged forward, unleashing a barrage of furious Divine Abilities toward the Ancestral God Corpse. Reflexively, the Ancestral God Corpse darted to the side, but in that split second, Sun Zhe appeared in front of Nie Yuan and Martial Law.
Nie Yuan's right palm pressed against Sun Zhe's back, and spiritual energy surged from within him into Sun Zhe's body. Martial Law also understood that this was a moment of desperation; he struggled to stand up, and the remaining spiritual energy within him rushed toward Sun Zhe. Meanwhile, Sun Zhe took out a bottle of pale yellow elixir from the Ethereal Ring and poured it into his stomach without hesitation.
The combined spiritual energy from Nie Yuan and Martial Law, along with the full potency of the high-grade elixir, flooded into Sun Zhe's body. Despite having undergone several refinements to become the Supreme Battle Body, he could not withstand such immense pressure. Blood began to seep from his pores, and a piercing pain echoed in his mind; he felt as if his body would collapse at any moment!
"Ahhh..."
The intense pain spread throughout his body, causing Sun Zhe to let out a long howl. His black hair danced wildly without wind, his deep-set eyes shone with brilliance, and his robust physique radiated an overwhelming aura. In an instant, he seemed to transform into an Ancient War God, with a towering War Ancestor's Phantom manifesting behind him, solidifying his presence even further.
Several streams of energy converged within Sun Zhe's body. While they brought unimaginable pressure that threatened to crush him, they also propelled his momentum to new heights. In the blink of an eye, he broke through the Holy Rank bottleneck and ascended through the early stages of Holy Rank to Mid Saint Level and then to late Holy Rank. Within just a breath, he reached the pinnacle of Holy Rank—not just its limit but its utmost limit—just a hair's breadth away from entering Divine Realm. He even faintly exuded an aura reminiscent of Divine Realm.
Sensing this overwhelming momentum, the Ancestral God Corpse finally felt something amiss and immediately flew toward Sun Zhe. Indeed, it was flying; clearly, its power had reached a level where it could counteract the pressure that prohibited flight. It could not perceive that Sun Zhe's body was on the verge of collapse; it only sensed that Sun Zhe's momentum was skyrocketing like a rocket, so it could not afford to wait any longer.
The speed at which it flew was astonishing; in an instant, it appeared before Sun Zhe. Without any unnecessary movements, its right hand formed a fist and struck directly at Sun Zhe's body. The space shattered as a black whirlwind roared forth, enveloping Sun Zhe in a thick aura of destruction—its formidable combat power was unmistakable!
At that moment, a sound like shattering barriers echoed within Sun Zhe's heart. His already peak Holy Rank momentum surged once more; astonishingly, it climbed another level and broke through to the Initial Stage of Divine Realm!
That elixir was no ordinary potion; it was one meant for those with the Supreme Combat Body. Originally prepared by the Old Domain Master for him after reaching Divine Realm, Sun Zhe consumed it prematurely. Coupled with Nie Yuan’s and Martial Law’s spiritual energy along with his own, it was enough for him to reach Divine Realm.
Of course, this attainment of Divine Realm did not mean he had become a Supreme Combat Body; otherwise, there would be Supreme Combat Bodies flying everywhere in the world. His rapid ascent to Divine Realm through sheer spiritual energy infusion was temporary; very few bodies could withstand such an infusion. What he sought was precisely this fleeting moment of reaching Divine Realm!
Just as his body reached its limit and as the Ancestral God Corpse appeared before him, all of Sun Zhe’s spiritual energy was unhesitatingly channeled into the Ancient Bell Blade. The totality of an Initial Stage of Divine Realm powerhouse’s energy surged into the blade as it ignited with fierce demonic flames, transforming in an instant into a roaring black dragon.
“Sixth Style - Demon Suppression - Subduing Demons!”
With a desperate roar, Sun Zhe swung his Long Sword forward in one decisive strike. Half-Void cut through an arc that was both mysterious and strange. His eyes tightly shut as if entering an extraordinary state—not Human-Weapon Unity but rather another realm of comprehension.
This strike relied on his past memories and external spiritual energy; yet it was undeniably real. As he swung downwards, an incredibly dense Law aura immediately spread outwards. A towering ancient demon shadow stood before the Ancestral God Corpse.
The punch from the Ancestral God Corpse struck directly against the enormous ancient demon's phantom, and the black whirlwind immediately began to spiral into the ancient demon's body. With that single punch, a terrifying gaping hole appeared in the ancient demon's phantom. The black fist came crashing down again, but at that moment, the War Clan Phantom behind Sun Zhe stood in front of the fist.
Sun Zhe had already poured all his spiritual energy into the Long Sword. The War Ancestor's Phantom was utterly powerless to support him. After just a moment, the Invincible in Battle War Ancestor's Phantom also collapsed. At the instant of the War Ancestor's Phantom's collapse, Sun Zhe felt as if he had been struck hard; a mouthful of crimson blood gushed out, and his face turned pale. After all, the War Ancestor's Phantom had merged with him, and its collapse represented a severe injury to him. However, the Long Sword in his hand did not waver in the slightest and continued to fall without hesitation.
Seeing Sun Zhe in such a desperate state, Nie Yuan and Martial Law couldn't help but clench their fists, their eyes filled with compassion. But Nie Yuan had exhausted his spiritual energy, and Martial Law had drained all his spiritual energy and Spiritual Power; neither could offer any help now.
Sun Zhe was fighting desperately; this plan was inherently a life-or-death gamble. He could not predict whether his body could withstand such an influx of spiritual energy, nor did he know if this energy would support him in reaching the Divine Realm. He was uncertain whether he could successfully unleash his Divine Ability or if that Divine Ability could suppress the Ancestral God Corpse...
He could not foresee any of this; he was fighting for his life, and he could only fight desperately for three lives!
Just as the Ancestral God Corpse's fist reached in front of Sun Zhe, a black Blade Shadow finally materialized. The pitch-black color was both dreamlike and slightly surreal. Sun Zhe's body fell with a loud thud, collapsing straight to the ground. He saw what happened to the Ancestral God Corpse, but he could see that the space around him was already enveloped by endless Sword Qi.
The black Blade Shadow instantly slashed downwards. The Ancestral God Corpse quickly retreated, but it was too late; no matter how fast it was, it couldn't outrun the Divine Ability that shattered through space.
The ground churned, clouds rolled, and with one slash, all the pervasive Death Qi dissipated completely. A terrifying wave of energy swept through, causing the three individuals who had exhausted their spiritual energy on the ground to fall into unconsciousness. They only remembered seeing dazzling sword lights filling the air before they lost consciousness.
As for whether Subduing Demons could suppress the Ancestral God Corpse, none of them knew. They only knew they had done everything they could; now they could only leave it to fate.
...
A cool breeze gently brushed by, stirring up a faint dust on the black earth. It rustled their clothes and caused their black hair to flutter lightly. The breeze even stirred their eyelashes, awakening those sleeping eyes. Slowly opening his eyes, Sun Zhe gradually regained consciousness and looked around; he found himself still lying in the same place.
It was still dark; the ground was still cool; he was still alive.
"You finally woke up..." A clear voice rang in his ears as Nie Yuan appeared before him. From his appearance, it was evident that he had been awake for quite some time.
"Heh heh, you’ve been asleep for at least two nights because we woke up two days ago," Martial Law’s rough voice also sounded beside Sun Zhe. He looked much better than before; clearly, he had recovered well over these past two days.
"What happened to the Ancestral God Corpse? Is it dead?" Sun Zhe asked slowly as he struggled to get up from the ground, looking at Martial Law.
"Uh... I guess you could say it's dead."
Hearing Sun Zhe ask this question, Martial Law couldn't help but scratch his head, trying to come up with a somewhat acceptable answer.
However, Sun Zhe was a bit confused; dead is dead, and not dead is not dead. What does it mean to be considered dead? Sun Zhe couldn't help but turn his gaze towards Nie Yuan, only to find that Nie Yuan had the same expression.
“He's right there; you can see for yourself.”
Nie Yuan sighed and pointed to the left with his right hand, revealing that the Ancestral God Corpse was standing upright. However, it no longer had any of its previous momentum. Its eyes were tightly shut, seemingly trapped in silence. Only the aura of Pangu Ancestor remained in its body, but the dense Death Qi had completely vanished.
Seeing the state of the Ancestral God Corpse, Sun Zhe finally breathed a sigh of relief. He understood what the two meant; at least the Ancestral God Corpse would no longer attack them.
“You should recover first. We'll guard you while you rest, and then we can continue moving forward.”
After hearing Nie Yuan's words, Sun Zhe had no objections and nodded. His main injuries were due to damaged meridians and internal organs caused by spiritual energy expansion. However, he had plenty of spiritual medicine on hand, and Sun Zhe was confident he could recover within two hours. With two Saint Level Pinnacle experts guarding him, he didn't hesitate and closed his eyes to begin his recovery.
Seeing that Sun Zhe had started to recover, both Nie Yuan and Martial Law heightened their vigilance, carefully surveying their surroundings with their Divine Consciousness. They certainly did not want another Ancestral God Corpse to appear suddenly.
