Chapter 3074: Unbreakable
Pu Chuanqi naturally refused to accept defeat. Even if Blood Jue was powerful, he had only just crossed one Eon Calamity, with a cultivation base at the initial stage of the Grand Void Realm. If he hadn’t been caught off guard earlier, how could he have suffered such a great loss?
Logically speaking, a figure like Pu Chuanqi should not have acted on impulse. Even if he didn’t pursue the Moon God, who had seized the Universe Cauldron, he shouldn’t have made an enemy of the Blood Jue War God, a future pillar of the Hell Realm. If he had yielded and compromised a little, he could have resolved the earlier conflict.
But having his divine body shattered by three halberd strikes from the Blood Jue War God, witnessed by many gods hidden in the void—including gods from the Green Deer Divine Temple—how could he salvage his dignity without reclaiming his face?
Most importantly, he truly didn’t take the current Blood Jue War God seriously.
“I’ve long heard that you, Blood Jue War God, are arrogant and blind to right and wrong. Seeing you today confirms it. Zhang Ruochen allied with the Heavenly Court’s Moon God to steal the Universe Cauldron, and not only did you fail to restrain him, but you allowed him to act so recklessly. Since you won’t discipline him, I’ll do it for you. Am I wrong?”
Pu Chuanqi held the Purple Sea Shura Lamp in his hand, and countless glowing Gu insects flew out from the lamp, forming a sea of insects.
“If you want war, I’ll oblige. But the loser must pay a price. Don’t blame me for bullying the younger when the time comes.”
Pu Chuanqi waved his hand, and the swarm of Gu insects condensed into a divine light war hammer, striking toward the Blood Jue War God. At the same time, his true body rapidly retreated.
Clearly, the earlier loss from three halberd strikes had taught him a lesson. He knew the Blood Jue War God had a powerful physical body and formidable close-combat skills. Pu Chuanqi wasn’t afraid of close combat, but he knew his advantage would be greater in long-range magical combat.
“Boom!”
The Blood Dragon War Halberd shattered the divine light war hammer, turning it into countless Gu insects, many of which were burned into wisps of green smoke by the divine flames and lightning erupting from the Blood Jue War God.
The Purple Sea Shura Lamp grew to the size of a mountain, its surface patterns flashing, drawing on boundless divine power. It made the entire star field spin, crashing heavily against the Blood Jue War God.
The power unleashed by a divine artifact was terrifying to imagine.
On the Undying Blood Clan divine ship, cultivators including Blood Yao Divine Lord, Blood Butcher, and Underworld King all broke out in cold sweat for the Blood Jue War God.
“Rumble!”
The Five Seas manifested, with countless rules and divine patterns shuttling through them, colliding with the Purple Sea formed by the Purple Sea Shura Lamp, creating surging divine energy waves.
Zhang Ruochen, who had teleported far away, stopped and looked back with concern.
Xiu Chen urged, “The Blood Jue War God is still too young and lacks a divine artifact. The gap with Pu Chuanqi is indeed huge. But don’t worry about him. No matter how they fight, it won’t be a life-or-death duel. At most, Pu Chuanqi will seize the Blood Dragon War Halberd to salvage his lost face. We should hurry and chase Wu Yue before she escapes!”
Zhang Ruochen knew Xiu Chen was right, but he still stayed put. If the Blood Jue War God truly lost, he could intervene and hold Pu Chuanqi off for a while.
Under the divine artifact’s assault, the Five Seas were continuously crushed.
Even though the Blood Jue War God used five types of Esoterica and summoned five kinds of Heavenly and Earthly Rules to empower himself, he couldn’t withstand the divine artifact and was forced back step by step.
“So much for the Five Seas Divine Path. It’s nothing special.”
Pu Chuanqi’s confidence surged, and his wariness diminished.
With his Grand Void Realm peak cultivation, could he not handle a Blood Jue at the initial Grand Void Realm?
Earlier, he had simply been caught off guard by Blood Jue’s sneak attack.
Pu Chuanqi controlled the Purple Sea Shura Lamp, stepping on the shattered Five Seas, laughing wildly with overwhelming momentum. He strode toward the Blood Jue War God, with phantom images of thousands of Shura divine troops appearing behind him, clearly gathering a formidable divine ability.
Just as the Five Seas were about to be completely crushed by the Purple Sea Shura Lamp.
The Blood Jue War God remained calm and shouted, “Undying Blood God!”
A patch of crimson blood light flew down from above.
The Undying Blood God, also clad in armor, leaped out from the blood light and merged with the Blood Jue War God’s divine body.
In an instant, the Blood Jue War God’s divine radiance surged. His blood wings grew from fourteen pairs to fifteen pairs. Dense ancestral patterns emerged on the blood wings.
“Boom!”
Amid Pu Chuanqi’s cold laughter, the Purple Sea Shura Lamp completely shattered the Five Seas, knocked the Blood Dragon War Halberd away, and, carrying countless divine patterns, smashed toward the Blood Jue War God.
Facing the world-destroying strike of the Purple Sea Shura Lamp, the Blood Jue War God neither dodged nor evaded. He roared, “Well met!”
Fifteen pairs of blood wings spread wide, golden patterns appearing on the Blood Jue War God’s body. He struck out with a palm, colliding head-on with the Purple Sea Shura Lamp using his physical body.
Pu Chuanqi was about to sneer at such recklessness—using a physical body to clash with a divine artifact. Did he disdain the artifact’s power, or Pu Chuanqi’s cultivation?
But…
The Purple Sea shattered, and the divine lamp was sent flying back by a single palm strike from the Blood Jue War God.
Pu Chuanqi’s expression changed, but he still twisted his wrist, using a vortex-shaped divine energy to neutralize the rebounding divine force and catch the flying Purple Sea Shura Lamp.
“Fifteen pairs of blood wings! Has the Blood Jue War God reached the Infinite Realm?”
“Dense golden patterns on the blood wings? Are they blood wings or golden wings?”
The gods hidden in the void were all shocked by the combat power the Blood Jue War God had unleashed. They couldn’t imagine someone casually swatting away a divine artifact with their bare hands.
After all, the wielder of the Purple Sea Shura Lamp, Pu Chuanqi, was not at the Supreme Extreme Realm or the White Extreme Realm but at the Grand Void Realm peak—far above the Blood Jue War God’s realm.
Xuanyuan Qing said, “How could the Blood Jue War God be at the Infinite Realm? He only barely activated fifteen pairs of blood wings after merging with the Undying Blood God. His realm is still at the initial Grand Void Realm. However, his blood energy is incredibly dense, and his physical body is terrifyingly strong. Could it be that today we finally get to witness his Unbreakable Divine Path?”
Legend had it that when the Blood Jue War God was a Great Saint, he cultivated two types of Second-Rank Sacred Intent.
The Five Seas Sacred Intent, combining the Path of Death, Path of Darkness, Path of Fire, Path of Lightning, and Blood Sea Heavenly Dao—this was a fivefold understanding of Heaven and Earth, suited for long-range combat and group attacks.
The second type of Second-Rank Sacred Intent was called the Unbreakable Sacred Intent, focused on internal refinement, suited for single combat and close-quarters fighting, with an unbreakable physical body.
Even with just fifteen pairs of blood wings, the Blood Jue War God had already made the proud Xuanyuan Qing hold his breath. How formidable, then, was the Unbreakable Divine Path, reputed to be invincible in close combat?
Pu Chuanqi’s gaze locked onto the Blood Jue War God’s right hand.
On the hand was a black fist glove.
On the glove, blood-red patterns interwove to form the character “Jue.”
“This is… Blood Jue, you actually found the Jue Character Fist Glove…” Pu Chuanqi exclaimed in shock.
“The Jue Character Fist Glove was forged by the Blood Jue Ancestor. Why are you so surprised it’s in my hands?”
The Blood Jue War God sneered. The Fate Rules, Metal Path Rules, Flowing Light Rules, and Palm Path Rules of Heaven and Earth all converged toward him.
The Fate Rules formed a bright Gate of Destiny behind him, illuminating the surroundings.
The Metal Path Rules merged into his body, making the golden patterns even more dazzling.
The Palm Path Rules combined with the Jue Character Fist Glove, evolving into a Heavenly Venerable-level divine ability. He struck out with a palm, transforming it into a ten-thousand-mile-long handprint.
“I am the Palm Path Overlord. Let’s see who teaches whom a lesson today!”
The ten-thousand-mile-long handprint heavily collided with the Purple Sea Shura Lamp.
Beneath the handprint, the Blood Jue War God turned into a streak of light, shattering the divine realm world Pu Chuanqi had erected inch by inch. When facing Pu Chuanqi’s divine abilities, he directly used the Gate of Destiny as a shield, clashing head-on.
“Boom! Boom!”
Countless divine abilities clashed violently, and the Blood Jue War God finally closed in on Pu Chuanqi.
Throughout this process, Pu Chuanqi’s face had turned pale, and he retreated repeatedly, his momentum crushed.
“Boom!”
Once in close quarters, relying on his extreme physical strength and extreme speed, the Blood Jue War God beat Pu Chuanqi until he had no chance to fight back. Finally, a palm strike landed on his chest, shattering his divine body into pieces, with divine bones and blood scattering in all directions.
Too domineering!
That was a Grand Void Realm peak Great God wielding a divine artifact, yet once the Blood Jue War God closed in, he had no power to resist.
The entire void fell silent. Every observer was stunned.
They had clearly seen Pu Chuanqi’s divine abilities strike the Blood Jue War God’s body, but they couldn’t harm him at all. The Gate of Destiny had merged with the Blood Jue War God’s divine body, forming an inviolable Fate Divine Light.
On the Undying Blood Clan divine ship, the cultivators were boiling with excitement, shouting the name “Blood Jue War God.”
“Truly the Great Clan Leader, truly the War God. With this combat power, who under the Infinite Realm can rival him?” Blood Butcher’s face was flushed red. He slapped Xiao Hei on the shoulder and laughed, “I wish I could fight alongside the Great Clan Leader. That old dog Pu Chuanqi had it coming.”
Xiao Hei glared at him coldly. “If you’re so brave, why don’t you go say that to Pu Chuanqi’s face?”
On the Xufeng Divine Ship, all the cultivators who could see the battle were silent, lost for words.
Watching the Blood Jue War God in the distant void, who had taken the Purple Sea Shura Lamp, Feng Xuan felt sorry for Pu Chuanqi and sighed, “Is the Blood Jue War God really only at the initial Grand Void Realm? His physical strength and combat techniques are like a sharp blade that can pierce any god’s chest. Truly unstoppable.”
Mo Xiansheng smiled bitterly, “No wonder there are so many martial cultivators in the world and so few spiritual power cultivators. If they encounter a combat expert like the Blood Jue War God, no matter how high their spiritual power, once he closes in, they’re dead.”
Xuanyuan Qing said, “A hundred years ago, I watched the battle projection of the Blood Jue War God’s assault on Tiannan. But in just a hundred years, his cultivation and combat power have increased by a huge margin.”
Feng Xi said, “The Hell Realm launched war to devour the Heavenly Court Myriad Realms, aiming to accumulate their strength to the peak in a short time. As long as there is a steady stream of blood energy, the cultivation of Undying Blood Clan gods can advance by leaps and bounds.”
Seeing the low spirits of the Heavenly Court gods, Xuanyuan Qing smiled, “It’s only natural for the Blood Jue War God to have such combat power. Figures like him have been rare since ancient times, capable of defying the odds and defeating enemies across realms. But the Heavenly Court also has unparalleled talents. Even if his cultivation reaches the middle or peak Grand Void Realm, there are still those who can block his ferocity. Not to mention the ancient gods, but the Thousand Bones Female Emperor and my elder brother might not be able to defeat him if they intervene.”
After seeing the Blood Jue War God merge with the Undying Blood God and grow fifteen pairs of blood wings, Zhang Ruochen knew Pu Chuanqi was likely no match. He no longer worried and, together with Xiu Chen, followed the traces left by Wu Yue, Xuanyuan Lian, and Fei Ma Wang in pursuit.
Xiu Chen sighed all the way, “Blood Jue’s luck is truly unmatched. He even managed to seize so much Esoterica and find the Jue Character Fist Glove. Who can compare to him in luck… No, you brat have even more ridiculous luck.”
“Luck? You think this is luck?”
Zhang Ruochen shook his head. “I won’t say much else, but when it comes to Esoterica, even seizing a sliver requires risking your life.”
“Grandfather has come this far, stepping on countless bones. One wrong move, and he would have buried himself. His Esoterica and combat techniques were earned through countless bloody battles, not luck.”
“Do you think that back then, failing to seize Saint Monk Xumi’s Time Esoterica, having your divine body shattered and your divine source lost, was just bad luck?”
Xiu Chen opened his mouth to retort, “Blood Jue is just cunning and treacherous. He clearly had the Jue Character Fist Glove but always flaunted that broken halberd everywhere. If Pu Chuanqi hadn’t underestimated Blood Jue from start to finish…”
Zhang Ruochen suddenly said, “Why did Pu Chuanqi call you a four-surname slave?”
Xiu Chen’s gaze turned cold as frost, revealing two rows of crystal-clear teeth.
“Alright, alright, just joking.”
“Wu Yue, that bitch, has already taken the Universe Cauldron, and you still have the mood to joke?”
Zhang Ruochen’s expression turned serious, and he made a silencing gesture. “Keep your voice down. Restrain your aura and hide.”
Too late!
In the distance, a crimson demonic energy ocean, exuding a fierce aura, rapidly spread toward them.
