"Even the strongest ordinary body can hardly reach the highest level of martial arts. Today, allow me to show you the terror of a special body constitution!"
Chu Jiangqiong's voice was overbearing, his body moving, his black hair fluttering. His hands emanated a radiant light as he engaged in battle with Qin Wudao.
As a bearer of a special body constitution himself, he imbued his attacks with solar flames, making the power of a regular martial art technique several times greater. His attacks and defenses were impeccable.
BOOM BOOM BOOM...
In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged dozens of attacks, fighting from the sky to the ground, and back to the sky, leaving dozens of afterimages behind. It was so fast that it made people dizzy, their eyes unable to keep up.
"Looking at the Ninth Prince's offensive, he hasn't fallen behind. As expected of the genius who has broken the Qin Dynasty's cultivation record!" a general exclaimed, his face full of admiration.
"I hope the Ninth Prince can defeat Chu Jiangqiong and obtain the title of the East Ancient Domain's number one genius!"
"I'm afraid it might be difficult. Right now, they're both testing each other. Don't forget that Chu Jiangqiong possesses a Sun Divine Body, which allows him to perform inherent Divine Skills. But the Ninth Prince is also holding a Daoist weapon, so he might also have a chance to win…"
The generals debated and discussed, their faces full of anticipation, but more of concern.
In an evenly matched battle, ordinary bodies had almost no chance of defeating those with a special constitution.
BOOM!
Another loud noise echoed, and both Qin Wudao and Chu Jiangqiong were knocked back at the same time. Their faces were solemn as they gained a rough estimate of each other's strength.
The fighting strength of a special body constitution is indeed extraordinary. Chu Jiangqiong's strength should outstrip Luo Yun by several times! Qin Wudao thought, looking at Chu Jiangqiong a thousand zhang away. Honestly, based on the latter's strength, he deserved the title of the East Ancient Domain's number one genius. But it's a pity that Chu Jiangqiong has chosen to be my enemy. It's time for the title of the number one in the Dao Domain to change hands.
"Among our peers, you are the first to make me exert my full strength. Sun Divine Body, activate!"
Facing Qin Wudao's gaze, Chu Jiangqiong revealed a cold sneer. His original orbs of black and white were covered in gold, and numerous mysterious patterns began to appear on his body.
WHOOSH!
At the same time, a beam of golden light descended from the sun hanging high in the sky and landed on the body of Chu Jiangqiong.
Power of the Sun, empower!
At this moment, Chu Jiangqiong was like a second sun in the world, his body wreathed in flames, emanating an intense heat. Waves of hot air rolled around, distorting the Void and baking the ground. A radius of several miles around him felt like a giant steamer, making it hard for anyone to breathe.
Many Martial Artists with lower cultivation levels stopped fighting and began to circulate their Spiritual Energy to resist this heatwave, to avoid spontaneous combustion.
The boundless fields had plants and trees burning, with black smoke billowing, a horrifying sight.
"Divine Skill, High Sunlight!" Chu Jiangqiong roared, his body rising from the ground. When he reached a thousand zhang in the sky, he turned into a huge fireball tens of zhang wide and plunged towards Qin Wudao. The Void where he passed was burned clean.
"Your Highness, quickly activate the Daoist weapon!" Wang Jian, who was watching the battle, reminded loudly, clenching his fists tightly, extremely nervous.
In his view, only by activating the power of a Daoist weapon could an ordinary mortal body withstand a Divine Skill attack.
Perfect, let me try the Divine Skill of the Chaos Divine Body!
Qin Wudao turned a deaf ear to Wang Jian's reminder, his eyes emitting a dazzling divine light. An aura that surpassed all Daos, ruled the universe, and slaughtered immortals and demons surged skyward.
Far beyond the firmament, a mass of gray mist appeared, obscuring the stars and covering the heavens and the earth.
In an instant, the world became oppressive.
On the Hangu Pass battlefield, everyone felt a chill in their hearts. Even Yan Yun's Eighteen Riders and the powerful sect experts who were in a fierce battle stopped their movements and looked at Qin Wudao in shock.
"A Special Body Constitution!"
"Qin Wudao also has a Special Body Constitution!"
The elder of the Celestial Gang Sect exclaimed, his face changing dramatically. In the Primeval Continent's three thousand Dao Domains, during the Golden Age, every Dao Domain would birth a cultivator with a special body constitution, in pursuit of the Supreme Dao. Twenty-six years ago, Chu Jiangqiong was born at midnight. The Heavenly Dao was in disarray, and a blazing sun broke through the cold moon, heralding the birth of the Sun Divine Body. For many years afterward, there were no other such omens in the East Ancient Domain; it should have been impossible for another special body constitution to be born!
"The Ninth Prince also awakened a special body constitution?" Generals like Wang Jian were overjoyed. They didn't think too much, just knowing that Qin Wudao could also use Divine Skills and was not afraid of Chu Jiangqiong.
"What?" Chu Jiangqiong, who was falling from the sky, felt a tremor in his divine sense upon sensing Qin Wudao's aura. "You also have a special constitution?" He had a bad premonition, but the arrow was already nocked; there was no turning back.
Let the battle begin! Let's see if the Sun Divine Body is stronger, or if your special constitution is more powerful!
"Chaos Divine Flame!" Qin Wudao waved his hands, and a gray, misty flame appeared in front of him. The flame flickered, radiating countless brilliant lights and carrying a chilling vibration.
The Divine Skill of the Chaos Divine Body is a form of Voidness! It can manifest all things: it can be time, it can be space, it can even be the five elements, ice, or the sun...
The Chaos Divine Flame was a Divine Skill Qin Wudao created by imitating Chu Jiangqiong's Divine Skill, infused with Chaotic Power to make it even stronger.
"Go!" Qin Wudao roared. The Chaos Divine Flame shattered the Void and turned into a Chaos Firebird. It carried a vast, overwhelming flame and a terrifying aura, like a volcanic eruption, as it crashed into Chu Jiangqiong.
BOOM!
When the two Divine Skills met, their divine lights intertwined, and they began to devour each other.
This is when the gap became apparent.
The Divine Skill deployed by Chu Jiangqiong was no match for Qin Wudao's. In a few breaths, the blazing sunlight was devoured, becoming fuel for the Chaos Divine Flame.
"PUFF…"
His Divine Skill broken, Chu Jiangqiong spat out a mouthful of hot blood. His body flew backward and slammed into the ground, embedding itself in the earth, his life force faint.
The genius of a generation, Chu Jiangqiong, was defeated!
"Ding! Congratulations to the Host for defeating the Sun Divine Body. Signed in: Ancient Imperial Weapon, the Execution Platform of God!"
The system's voice rang out.
In the vast system space, an execution platform wreathed in a bloody aura appeared. It featured a coiling dragon pillar and several chains that writhed like true dragons, suspending a massive, keen-edged blade. Perhaps from beheading so many, the blade itself had turned blood-red, with countless vengeful souls sealed within it.
The Execution Platform of God, a weapon of the ancient imperial court, was connected to the nation's Fortune. Once a target was locked, it could gather the national Fortune to slay enemies even across cultivation levels.
Furthermore, the more enemies it killed, the stronger the Execution Platform of God would become.
"What a treasure!" Qin Wudao was overjoyed. He took the Execution Platform of God out of the system space and placed it above Hangu Pass. Immediately, a gloomy wind howled, waves of blood-red light surged, and murderous intent roiled, containing a sharpness capable of annihilating the Void.
The terrifying killing intent permeated the area, washing over the nine heavens and shaking the cosmos.
"This is an execution platform. Could it be that His Highness intends to..." Wang Jian looked at the Execution Platform of God, an insane thought surfacing in his mind.
"The allied forces of the Six Nations and the experts from the six sects disregarded all righteousness and invaded Hangu Pass. I, Qin Wudao, Prince of the Qin Empire, carrying the will of the Qin Empire, will slay the invading enemies!"
Qin Wudao's figure flickered and appeared on the Execution Platform of God as he coldly declared.
