Those who lacked understanding could only see the Dark Mage delivering a punch to the Jade Emperor, causing his bones to shatter as he was sent flying, not knowing how far he had been knocked away.
However, those with knowledge could perceive that the force of the Dark Mage's punch had actually pierced through the void between him and the Jade Emperor, creating a Spatial Tunnel. The powerful energy traveled through this tunnel, catching the Jade Emperor completely off guard.
Regardless, the Dark Mage's single strike left everyone in disbelief. Even those from the Demon Realm found it hard to accept; after all, judging by the Jade Emperor's Thunder Dragon Technique, his strength was certainly formidable. He was the number one in the Nine Immortal Realm and should not have been so easily defeated by a single blow from the Dark Mage.
Yet reality stood before them, and everyone found it hard to believe.
The Dark Mage's power was overwhelming!
After a moment of silence, the Three Hundred Million Demon Army erupted into cheers, their voices shaking the air. In contrast, those from the Nine Immortal Realm were utterly silent. They could hardly fathom that their Jade Emperor had been defeated so disgracefully in just one move.
"What’s going on? Wasn't the Jade Emperor full of confidence before?"
"Yeah, who knows? The paralyzed Jade Emperor is just embarrassing! He talked so big, and now this is how it ends—what a disaster."
"Damn it! I was filled with anticipation; the Jade Emperor is such a disappointment. Why doesn’t he just go die?"
"What do we do now? With the Jade Emperor defeated, are we from the Nine Immortal Realm going to become subordinate forces of the Demon Realm?"
"Let’s see what the Dark Mage does. If that’s really the case, we’ll have no choice but to fight to the death."
"We from the Nine Immortal Realm are not pushovers. Our formations are something that the Demon Realm cannot compare to."
"Exactly! When it comes to fighting against the Demon Realm Army, there’s no other way; formations are our only path forward."
The people of the Nine Immortal Realm whispered among themselves, contemplating their strategies.
The Dark Mage, however, remained vigilant. He held his breath and focused, knowing that his previous punch had consumed too much energy to truly injure the Jade Emperor.
Although the Jade Emperor was wounded, he was far from powerless.
The Dark Mage's mind lingered on the divine sword that Wei Chen possessed.
The Jade Emperor was not his true opponent; it was that divine sword!
After a few breaths, the Jade Emperor returned to his original position, looking at the Dark Mage with a wary gaze. "How can your power be so strong?" he asked.
"Heh, that punch just now was only delivered with thirty percent of my strength. If this is all you have, you might as well surrender now. I won't kill you," the Dark Mage replied calmly.
The Jade Emperor scoffed. "What a joke! A grand joke! Do you really think you can defeat me?"
"I didn't want to use that move, but you've brought this upon yourself! I gave you a chance! You chose death, along with three hundred million of your Army. Don't blame me for being ruthless!"
With that, the Jade Emperor let out a cruel smile. He spread his arms wide and looked up, opening his mouth as an ancient and vast sword aura emanated from him.
Feeling that sword aura, everyone trembled slightly in their hearts. It was extremely ancient and profound, not instilling fear, but the majesty and dominance within it evoked an overwhelming sense of submission in everyone present.
“Paralyze, the sword energy of Xuanyuan Sword! Damn, the Xuanyuan Sword is truly in the hands of the Jade Emperor!”
The Demon Lotus Emperor seethed within. During his adventures in the Nine Immortal Realm and Hua Xia World, he had once felt the sword energy of the Jade Emperor during a battle against three Immortal Emperors. The moment that sword energy was unleashed, the other three Immortal Emperors had knelt in surrender.
Now, with the appearance of Xuanyuan Sword's sword energy once again, even the Demon Lotus Emperor couldn't help but feel a sense of submission rising within him.
There was no doubt about it—the sword energy belonged to Xuanyuan Sword!
Muen, Ji Dingxuan, Sea Emperor Nanfeng, and others unknowingly tensed up. That sword energy was incredibly domineering; could the Dark Mage withstand it?
Wei Chen, hiding in the shadows, felt the overwhelming aura and his expression changed slightly. He hurriedly transmitted a message to the Dark Mage: “Grandfather, don’t just stand there! Take advantage of his summoning of the Xuanyuan Sword to strike him hard; otherwise, once Xuanyuan Sword is unleashed, countless lives will be lost!”
Just as the Dark Mage received Wei Chen's message, his body shot out like a bolt of lightning. In an instant, he appeared before the Jade Emperor, his fist glowing with silver Stellar Power. The Dark Mage pulled back his right arm forcefully, gathering enough strength to shake the stars with his iron fist as it crashed into the Jade Emperor's chest.
From the moment the Dark Mage vanished until his iron fist struck the Jade Emperor's chest, it was merely a fleeting moment.
The Jade Emperor was not yet ready to summon Xuanyuan Sword!
The imposing and domineering sword energy suddenly dissipated. The Jade Emperor’s body was sent flying like a cannonball, disappearing into the distance with a whoosh.
That punch had completely caved in the Jade Emperor’s chest!
A single devastating blow!
"Child, do not intervene. I want to witness what a divine sword truly is!" the Dark Mage thought to Wei Chen. Although he could not see Wei Chen's location, he knew that Wei Chen was nearby, not far away.
"Grandfather, the Jade Emperor will be coming out soon, bringing the Xuanyuan Sword with him. At that time, it will be difficult for you to handle. In my opinion, it would be better if I took action directly," Wei Chen communicated through thought.
"Child, do not forget your oath!" the Dark Mage retorted angrily.
Wei Chen had no choice but to remain silent.
Soon, a torrent of sword energy surged forth as the Jade Emperor was sent flying. Despite his severe injuries, he held on with his last breath and summoned the Xuanyuan Sword!
Others could not see what was happening and were unaware of the events unfolding, but Wei Chen saw it clearly: the Xuanyuan Sword was summoned from the Jade Emperor's mouth!
He was nurturing the sword with his body!
The Jade Emperor had already begun to master the Xuanyuan Sword; otherwise, he would not have been able to nurture it in such a manner. The Xuanyuan Sword was not particularly long but was wide and presented a dark red hue as it was held by the Jade Emperor, adding an air of reverence to him.
The Ten Divine Artifacts could not grow larger or change form, yet the Jade Emperor nurturing the Xuanyuan Sword within his body was not about transformation; it was a unique method of nurturing a sword with one's body. Wei Chen had always sought such a divine sword, hoping to achieve true unity of man and sword through this method. He had a passion for swordsmanship but had never possessed a high-quality sword, leaving him only to dream.
The appearance of the Xuanyuan Sword was an opportunity. If someone like the Jade Emperor could initially control the Xuanyuan Sword, Wei Chen felt confident that after obtaining it and nurturing it with his body over time, he might even be able to establish a bond with it. He originally believed that making a divine artifact recognize its master required great fortune, much like Yan Qiqi's situation—something that could only be encountered by chance. However, seeing the Jade Emperor made Wei Chen think that perhaps making a divine artifact recognize its master wasn't so difficult after all; as long as one persisted despite lacking bloodline compatibility, success might still be possible.
A powerful surge of sword energy rolled in as the Jade Emperor grasped the dark red Xuanyuan Sword and slowly flew back to his original position. He looked at the Dark Mage and sneered, "Dark Mage, you cannot kill me! I have the divine sword protecting me; no matter how strong your power is, you cannot kill me!"
"Now, it's my turn!"
The Jade Emperor's face was filled with madness as he raised his hand and swung his sword down at the Dark Mage.
A vast, ancient, and imposing dark red sword aura struck the Dark Mage in an instant. Even though the Dark Mage gathered all his magical power for defense, the defensive energy was utterly ineffective against the sword aura. It was cleaved apart by the Xuanyuan Sword, striking the Dark Mage on the shoulder.
No matter how strong the Dark Mage's body was, facing the imperial aura of the Xuanyuan Sword at the seventh level of the Stellar Technique was still beyond his ability to withstand.
A deep wound appeared on the Dark Mage's shoulder, exposing bone.
Blood gushed from the wound, starkly visible.
Everyone watching was astonished. How could the Dark Mage, who had been in such an advantageous position, suddenly be injured by the Jade Emperor?
Countless shocked gazes turned toward the Jade Emperor. The sword in his hand evoked an involuntary sense of submission, emanating a kingly aura that left everyone secretly gasping in awe. The situation had reversed solely because the Jade Emperor wielded a divine sword!
Did the Dark Mage still have a chance of victory?
As everyone pondered this, the Dark Mage had already vanished from his original position and appeared before the Jade Emperor, his iron fist charged with silver Strange energy, crashing toward him.
The Dark Mage's speed was astonishingly fast; the Jade Emperor could not evade and took a punch head-on. However, he managed to stab the Xuanyuan Sword into the Dark Mage's lower left rib area, leaving a bloody hole. The Jade Emperor did not fare well either; his chest caved in further, and nearly all his ribs shattered.
This kind of injury was nearly fatal, yet there were no signs that the Jade Emperor would fall. It seemed as if those injuries had no effect on him at all.
No one could understand how someone who should be unable to continue fighting due to such near-fatal wounds could appear completely unfazed.
“Dark Mage, you cannot kill me. With this divine sword and the protection of Sword Soul, you will never be able to defeat me!” The Jade Emperor declared, thrusting the Xuanyuan Sword fiercely towards the Dark Mage. A wave of sword energy detached from the blade, piercing through the Dark Mage's shoulder blade.
Who would have thought that the Jade Emperor had obtained a divine sword that could overpower the Dark Mage? It seemed like a casual strike, yet it was enough to severely injure him.
A powerful figure in the Martial Emperor Realm possesses strong self-recovery abilities, but it depends on the nature of the injuries inflicted. In the case of Jade Emperor and Dark Mage, the wounds they inflicted upon each other could not be healed in a short time.
As it became evident that the Dark Mage was destined to lose, it was only a matter of time before he fell. The members of the demon realm were anxious, but not just Wei Chen; even Ji Dingxuan, Muen, and others had been strictly instructed by the Dark Mage not to intervene under any circumstances. This left the Dark Mage in a precarious situation, with many feeling helpless as they could only stand by.
Including Wei Chen, who had sworn an oath that he could not act.
The battle between the Dark Mage and the Jade Emperor had reached a fever pitch. With the aid of the Xuanyuan Sword and its accompanying Xuanyuan Sword Soul, the Jade Emperor was unable to truly lose his fighting capability against the Dark Mage. Despite being physically formidable, even with the divine artifact, the Jade Emperor could not unleash its full power, often leaving only superficial wounds on the Dark Mage, which did not incapacitate him.
However, this only made those from the demon realm more anxious. They wished for nothing more than for the Dark Mage to surrender immediately, as that would ensure his survival. Continuing to fight would only lead to dire consequences; just looking at those gruesome wounds on his body was enough to suggest that he might bleed out from his injuries.
No one wanted to see such a scenario unfold, yet it was gradually becoming a reality.
The Dark Mage was nearing his limit; his movements were growing slower.
The Jade Emperor, gripping the Xuanyuan Sword, wore a sinister grin. It was clear to everyone that the Dark Mage was at his last gasp.
