Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor-Chapter 428 - 425: Burning Sky!

The starscape transformed into a chessboard, with the Big Dipper aligning in a row, manifesting a winding giant dragon that enveloped the entire Yan Mountain Peak within it.

Li Chen’s Thousand Sword Net was like a sandcastle on the beach, suddenly struck by surging waves. It was so fragile that it collapsed on the spot.

The Fierce Dragon roared, and the magnificent True Yuan, akin to the hordes of soldiers on ancient battlefields, ran rampant at the top of Yan Mountain.

The four War Generals: Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Xuanwu, and more than a dozen other Grandmasters, all vigorously lifted their True Yuan to construct a defensive light ring, holding back the shockwave from the outside.

"What formidable power, merely the aftermath can push us, more than a dozen Grandmasters, to such a sorry state, it’s truly terrifying!"

The Tai Chi Grandmaster with the surname Hu issued a cry of disbelief.

The complexions of the other Grandmasters also showed grave concern, evidently agreeing with the statement.

Before this, they all naively thought that even if they were no match for Li Lingtian alone, two or three of them together could fight him to a draw. If three to five banded together, they could defeat him.

But now it seems they were gravely mistaken, a laughable error.

With just this one sword, they had already been defeated, a complete and utter defeat.

The dragon’s roar resounded at Yan Mountain Peak, lingering for a long time.

"Has Immortal Master Li been defeated?"

The Grandmaster surnamed Hu widened his eyes, looking around him.

The others also tiptoed or stretched their necks, looking up towards the summit.

As far as the eye could see, there was devastation; the ground riddled with holes, as if it had just been bombed by enemy planes, a sight of utter ruin.

On the vast summit, only Li Lingtian stood alone.

Li Chen’s figure was nowhere to be seen.

"That Immortal Master Li must have been crushed to ashes, right?"

"No, he won’t die!"

Lin Xuanfei suddenly stood out like a madwoman.

Everyone looked around in astonishment.

Duan Tong and Zhao Yi exchanged a glance from a distance. These two brothers in hardship found the answer in each other’s complicated gazes.

Immortal Master Li was Li Chen!

Only he could drive Lin Xuanfei to such madness.

However, at this moment, neither of them had the mood to gloat over the misfortunes.

Instead, they held deep respect for their romantic rival within their hearts.

Peers of the same age, yet the other had the prowess to confront Huaxia’s number one, the Undefeated War God Li Lingtian on the summit of Yan Mountain.

Even if he had perished, he shone like a meteor, brilliant and admired by thousands.

And they, it seemed, would never reach the achievements he had in this life!

"Xuanfei, he’s all right!"

Ye Chuxue suddenly stepped forward, tightly grasping Lin Xuanfei’s small hand.

Lin Xuanfei turned around, her eyes lost as she looked at Ye Chuxue.

Ye Chuxue nodded at her, saying, "I can sense that he is alright, don’t worry!"

Someone recognized Ye Chuxue and exclaimed, "She seems to be Immortal Master Li’s little girlfriend, half a year ago, it was for her that Immortal Master Li, in a burst of fury, flattened the entire Heavenly Master Sect!"

Hearing this exclamation, Zhao Yuqing, Qin Qingwu, Mei Ruohua, and others all cast envious looks at her.

At that moment, the sound of the sword piercing the sky.

An exquisite figure emerged from the abyss, rising into the air, with lotus blossoms forming beneath and hovering in midair.

Seeing Li Chen reappear, Li Lingtian’s deep and ocean-like eyes revealed a hint of gratifying smile.

"Kid, you really haven’t let me down!"

Li Chen gazed at the Dragon Abyss Sword in Li Lingtian’s hand and praised, "The Seven-star Dragon Abyss indeed is a peerless Divine Sword!"

Li Lingtian asked with a smile, "So, you want it?"

Li Chen nodded slightly in response, "Who wouldn’t love a jade from Jing Mountain?"

Li Lingtian laughed heartily and said, "Good! If you defeat me, I will willingly hand over the Dragon Abyss Divine Sword!"

"Alright, that’s a promise you made!"

Before the voice had fallen, Li Chen drew his sword and leapt into action, performing a dazzling Cross Slash that cleaved through the air towards his opponent.

However, this strike was like drawing a sword to interrupt the flow of water; as soon as it was withdrawn, the Star Sword Domain would immediately close up once again.

Moreover, every time he launched an attack, the radiant glow of the sword domain became even more brilliant and eye-catching.

Witnessing this scene, Azure Dragon and the others were already convinced that Li Lingtian was in an undefeatable position.

Immortal Master Li’s defeat was merely a matter of time. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

Li Chen delivered thirteen consecutive sword strikes, each time to no avail.

Just when everyone thought Li Chen would continue with a fourteenth strike, he suddenly threw away the Zhang Ling Sword in his hand.

"What is Immortal Master Li trying to do, throwing away his sword just like that?"

"Could it be that he already knew he was bound to lose and is preparing to surrender?"

"I think this is quite likely, but he is also quite formidable. To be able to exchange more than thirty moves with the Undefeated War God Li Lingtian without losing, across the whole of Huaxia he is the only one who can do so. He is still but a young man; give him another ten years to grow, and Li Lingtian might really have to cede his position as the number one in Huaxia!"

"Brother Hu’s words make sense. Even in defeat, Immortal Master Li has earned glory!"

"Look quickly, it seems that Immortal Master Li isn’t conceding, he still has a card up his sleeve!"

...

As everyone’s eyes refocused on Li Chen, they saw his body wrapped in a radiant glow. His eyes shone as brilliantly as the sun.

"Heavenly Eye opens, Burning Sky!" Accompanying Li Chen’s roar, two columns of fire, like volcanic eruptions, burst forth from his eyes.

"Boom!" In an instant, all of Yan Mountain was bathed in an orange glow from the flames.

The Seven-star Dragon Abyss engulfed in the sea of fire, writhing and rolling in a frenzied struggle.

In mere moments, it let out a desperate cry before being completely submerged in the sea of fire.

In the blink of an eye, the boundless starry sky was devoured by the sea of flames, turning into endless darkness.

"Pfft!" Li Lingtian suffered a backlash, a sudden sweetness in his throat followed by a violent spurt of blood, and the Dragon Abyss Sword flew out of his grasp.

"Sword, come forth!" A vortex formed above Li Chen’s palm as he shouted towards the Dragon Abyss Sword.

The Dragon Abyss Sword, as if attracted by a gigantic magnet, trembled violently, then flew into Li Chen’s hand.

"Whoosh!" Li Chen grasped the Dragon Abyss Sword in one swift motion, pointing it directly at Li Lingtian’s throat, and pushed forward rapidly.

Li Lingtian retreated in a frenzy, stopping only when he reached the edge of a cliff, with nowhere left to retreat.

Just as everyone inhaled sharply, Li Chen suddenly stopped.

The sharp Sword Light was mere half an inch from Li Lingtian’s throat. With just a slight exertion of his wrist, Li Lingtian, the Undefeated War God and the leader of the Heavenly List of Huaxia, would perish on the spot.

"Li Lingtian, you’ve lost!" Li Chen declared to Li Lingtian, pronouncing each word deliberately.

Li Lingtian sighed deeply and said resignedly: "I’ve lost!"

"You’ve shown mercy!" After saying this, Li Chen sheathed his sword and glanced down.

Whether Grandmasters or commoners, in that moment, all bowed their heads, not daring to meet Li Chen’s fiery gaze.

Only Ye Chuxue looked at him with a smile in her eyes, not blinking at all.

Li Chen did not approach her, but simply smiled back at her. Then, with each step forming a lotus, he took to the winds and left, leaving behind a figure to be looked up to.

May 30th, 2009, Dragon Boat Festival:

On the peak of Yan Mountain, Immortal Master Li defeated Li Lingtian, breaking his unbeaten myth and shocking the world.

From then on, a new star with even more legendary sheen rose in the sky over Huaxia.

On the same day, the Heaven and Earth Alliance updated the Heavenly List, honoring Immortal Master Li as the new leader of the Heavenly List, his fame shaking the world!

...

Thus, the first major volume comes to an end. Li Chen has finally become the leader of the Heavenly List. To celebrate, everyone, throw your votes over here, thank you!
