Chapter 2019: Divine Wheel Levels
On the Path Seeking Peak, the virtuosos from all over the world stared intently at the battleground. The destructive scene was chilling.
In the heavens above, the unceasing Desolate Tribulations that hammered down on the massive Black Tortoise Sword Matrix caused it to shudder. A blinding light radiated outward from the Black Tortoise Sword Emperor. A giant black tortoise appeared and merged into the sword matrix.
At that moment, the black tortoise was still getting larger, and the number of swords was also increasing.
The Desolate Tribulation that was cascading downwards did not fade away. Rather, they morphed into chains that twisted around the Black Tortoise Sword Matrix, as though it were going to seal the entire sword matrix. At the same time, The Desolation Wheel in the heavens summoned an endless amount of power of the Great Path, sealing the entire battlefield.
Desolation stood below his Desolation Wheel. Bathed in the radiance of destruction, he looked like he was covered in terrifying dark armor. His body became huge, and he morphed into the Desolate God of War. He reached out his hands, and the Desolate Tribulation swirling around the Black Tortoise Sword Matrix were like chains that were wrapped around his arms, fully under his control.
He clenched his fists tightly. Instantly, the limitless light of tribulation emitted a powerful destructive force in an attempt to annihilate the sword matrix. Yet, the Black Tortoise Sword Matrix had formed a domain of its own, and the Black Tortoise Sword Emperor sealed himself within the domain. He actually took this terrifying attack straight on.
The rumble of the Great Path echoed out, and the Black Tortoise Sword Matrix trembled. It actually pressed on downwards. The massive sword matrix contained a fearsome murderous power and a scary might. It caused the entire space to be extremely heavy and difficult to escape.
Enduring this immense power, Desolation, who had morphed into a God of War, reached his hands out, palms facing the sky. His eyes let out a terrifying black light. In the skies above, the Desolation Wheel emitted tens of thousands of Desolate Tribulations, shrouding the endless space. These Desolate Tribulations instantly swarmed to Desolation’s body, swirling around him. At that moment, he seemed to be able to unleash a mighty Finger of Death.
Yet, those Desolate Tribulations swirling around him fused into one. Billions of Desolate Tribulations were concentrated on his palm, and they morphed into an utterly catastrophic storm. The terrifying storm of Desolate Tribulations shot straight into the clouds. In his hands, a black demonic blade appeared.
Limitless light of tribulations swirled around the blade and cackled continuously like black lightning. The strength of the destructive power that seeped out was breath-stopping.
Upon seeing the blade, all the practitioners from the Donghua Academy had a serious look in their eyes. This was the terrifying Dao technique passed down in the Desolate God Palace. When Desolation raised his blade with both hands, a terrifying destructive power shot straight into the clouds.
With a body like a God of War’s, he cut once with his Desolate Blade. In that instant, the space seemed to be split into two by the destructive light of darkness. This slice could cut through space itself.
At the same time, the eyes of the Black Tortoise Sword Emperor became serious. From the Black Tortoise Sword Matrix that was revolving around his body, unlimited will of the sword shot out and condensed into a sword, appearing by his side. His hands formed a sword seal, and the sword matrix fused into one black tortoise divine sword.
He looked downwards for a moment, and an extremely bright divine light burst out. The will of the sword split the heavens apart. When he swung his black tortoise sword, a rumble reverberated throughout heaven and earth.
Two destructive beams of light collided with each other in the heavens. The sword and blade cut towards each other, and a terrifying shockwave of the Great Path seemed to shatter the matrices. An endless stream of fearsome Desolate Tribulations shot straight into the defense of the Black Tortoise Sword Matrix. However, at that moment, a black tortoise image appeared behind the Black Tortoise Sword Emperor. It morphed into a massive beast and refused to budge.
“Brother.” Many people looked at the Black Tortoise Sword Emperor. The Desolate Tribulations charged straight into the Black Tortoise Sword Matrix, and on the black tortoise picture appeared lines of destructive light of tribulation that impacted his body. However, his long robe fluttered, and a shocking aura of the Great Path exploded outward. He refused to take even half a step back. His eyes glimmered brightly with a divine-like glow as he stared at the space below him.
An endless will of the sword pierced through the Desolate Blade and shot straight at the dark silhouette, as though silently stating that if his opponent didn’t retreat, he would not retreat either.
Desolation lifted his head, and his jet-black eyes focused on the silhouette in the air. A rumble reverberated from his body, and fresh blood trickled down the corners of his mouth. However, his eyes were still impossibly determined. It was as though he was not bothered by it at all.
At that moment, a glaring light radiated from the Black Tortoise Sword Emperor. The black tortoise picture lit up once again. He said a single word, “Break.”
As he spoke, a sound of shattering echoed out. The Desolate Blade crumbled inch by inch. At the same time, the sword also cracked and shattered. The two of them were simultaneously blown a great distance away.
When the two of them stopped, their auras were fluctuating. The robe on the Black Tortoise Sword Emperor was torn apart, and his long hair that was tied became disheveled, flowing about in the wind. Desolation stood there without moving, his gaze fixated on the silhouette standing opposite him.
“Let’s call this a draw. If your level were just a little higher, I would not have been able to break this slice. If this were a few years later, I would probably lose,” the Black Tortoise Sword Emperor said. He seemed a little low-spirited. Having cultivated for so many years, he was already one of the top Renhuangs, yet in his fight with this level-seven Renhuang junior, he did not have the supreme advantage. This was the combat ability bestowed by a perfect Great Path. His potential was indeed unlimited.
“A loss is a loss. That was not a draw.” Desolation’s tone was icy, as though he had always been like that. The people with him similarly gave off an extremely cold and emotionless feeling. However, he did admit that he had lost this battle.
Of course, he would not feel too discouraged. Even though he was an extremely proud individual and wanted to challenge Ning Hua and the Donghua Academy’s virtuosos, he did not really believe that he was undefeatable. This was, after all, Donghua Academy—the top sacred grounds of the Donghua Domain. He was arrogant, but he was not blindly overconfident of himself.
The two of them retreated to their respective mountain peaks. Desolation sat cross-legged and started to restore his strength. He suffered decently severe injuries from the fight just now. Even though it was not visible on the surface, but for a person like him to vomit fresh blood, the damage he suffered must have been significant. Thus, he had to rest and recover for a while.
Liu Qingzhu looked at the crowd and said, “The Desolate God Palace is the ruler of their territory. This generation’s heir to the Desolate God is indeed powerful. Everyone who is here today is influential in their respective continents; you can take this opportunity to spar with each other. If you have a perfect Great Path, you can use the Divine Mirror of Heavenly Wheels to test your own Divine Wheel levels.”
Many people reflexively looked in the direction of the Divine Palace of Fluttering Snow and Wangshen Watchtower. More precisely, they looked at Jiang Yueli from the Divine Palace of Fluttering Snow and Zong Chan from the Wangshen Watchtower.
Everyone had witnessed Desolation’s overpowering strength from before. These two people were on the same level as Desolation, so everyone was interested in their strength. Desolation had already appraised the level of his Divine Wheel. Then, how many layers of divine light would be emitted by Jiang Yueli and Zong Chan’s Divine Wheels?
Many people were very eager to find out.
Seeing this, Liu Qingzhu smiled and said, “It seems like everyone wants to see Goddess Jiang and Zong Chan. Why don’t you both satisfy everyone’s curiosity?”
Jiang Yueli stood on the ancient peak. She looked magnificent. Her bright and spirited eyes looked at the Zong Chan. She said, “In that case, would Zong Chan like to go first?”
Obviously, he did not refuse. To her, it was nothing that needed to be hidden. Moreover, she was also a little curious to know the level of her Divine Wheel.
At the Wangshen Watchtower’s side, everyone looked at Zong Chan in front. Li Changsheng smiled and said, “Brother Zong, good luck.”
“Alright.” Zong Chan nodded and calmly walked out. His silhouette floated down to above the Path Seeking Stage and faced the Divine Mirror of Heavenly Wheels between the two ancient peaks.
In the next moment, Zong Chan unleashed his Great Path Divine Wheel. It was a massive stone stele that contained a shocking Great Path aura of suppression.
His Divine Wheel appeared in the Divine Mirror of Heavenly Wheels. Light shone on Zong Chan, and following that, light revolved around in the divine mirror. Layers of divine light appeared, and everyone stared at it.
Zong Chan also looked at the mirror. He was chosen by his respected teacher. Since his cultivation was quite similar to his teacher’s, his Great Path Divine Wheel was also forged at Wangshen Watchtower.
Thus, the level of his Divine Wheel should not be low, right?
Under everyone’s intense gaze, the divine light shimmered. Not long later, five layers of divine light appeared. They were all especially brilliant and vivid. Everyone was secretly surprised. Zong Chan and Desolation were the same; their Great Path Divine Wheels were both at the fifth level and could cause the Divine Mirror of Heavenly Wheels to emit five layers of divine light.
In the distance, the practitioners of the Wangshen Watchtower silently let out a sigh of relief. They were initially a little worried that Zong Chan’s Divine Wheel would be inferior to that of Desolation, but it seemed like they were just paranoid. To cultivate to such a level, Zong Chan would not be inferior to the other people.
Zong Chan himself was rather calm. He was neither surprised nor disappointed. He raised his head and looked at Jiang Yueli. He smiled and said, “Goddess Jiang, please.”
As he finished speaking, he returned to his own mountain peak. Li Changsheng patted his back. It was not easy for Wangshen Watchtower to have someone among the four most influential figures in the Donghua Domain.
Jiang Yueli nodded, and her silhouette descended to face the Divine Mirror of Heavenly Wheels. Her Divine Wheel was in the form of a sword. The moment her sword appeared, and the entire space became extremely cold. That was the extremely cold Chilling Moon Blade. The sword was as cold as the freezing moon. The light that it emitted caused everyone to feel a frosty aura that chilled them to their bones.
When the sword appeared in the Divine Mirror of Heavenly Wheels, ice and snow appeared in the divine mirror as well, and the entire mirror turned a pure white. It was as though the mirror sensed the freezing will of the sword.
Layers of divine light revolved around, and the result was the same as Desolation’s and Zong Chan’s. It was still five layers of divine light. The three virtuosos had very comparable Divine Wheel levels. This also seemed to prove Donghua Academy’s hypothesis—that a practitioner who ascended to a high-level Renhuang with a perfect Great Path would have a Divine Wheel of level four to six.
Ning Hua’s was the sixth level, while those of the other three were similar to each other’s in the middle at the fifth level.
A slight ripple coursed through the hearts of everyone who was watching. Indeed, no one had yet to surpass Ning Hua. They were all weaker than him. However, the three of them were close to each other. It might not be the case for their combat abilities, but it was definitely the case for the levels of their Divine Wheels.
Similarly, Jiang Yueli did not show much emotion and calmly returned to the mountain peak where the practitioners from the Divine Palace of Fluttering Snow stood.
Even though it was a pity that she was not on the same level as Ning Hua, there must be a reason why Ning Hua was known as the most influential figure. Even though they had never fought before, she had heard of his name a couple of times.
“Not bad,” Liu Qingzhu praised. “Among the four most influential characters in our Donghua Domain, three of them have level five Perfect Grade Divine Wheels. It is indeed valuable. Now, is there any Renhuang practitioners who have forged a Perfect Grade Divine Wheel and want to appraise their Divine Wheels?”
Even though there were only a few such people among the high-level Renhuangs, many middle-level and low-level Renhuangs had Perfect Grade Divine Wheels. Perhaps there might be someone who might attain the same level as these three, or close to them at the fourth level!
