Chapter 2161: Chapter 1550: Explosion (Part 2)

Sure, here’s the translation.

Its effect is the same as in the Sea of Laws, yet there is absolutely no risk of being assimilated by the Sea of Laws.

Don’t even mention a Profound Immortal, even a Golden Immortal would fight fiercely for a Hundred Years Enlightenment Fruit.

Now Li Zhirui finally understood why the two peak Profound Immortals were fighting to the death—to seize this Hundred Years Enlightenment Fruit.

"Chong Yan, stop uttering nonsense, if we truly compare strength, you’re not my match at all!" Another voice rang out, not a bit weaker than the other’s.

Boom!

After a brief conversation, their battle became even fiercer, and in the center of the clash, one could even see space trembling.

With the passage of time, the aftershock of the battle grew stronger, forcing Li Zhirui to allocate more attention and power to avoid exposing himself and ruining his plans.

But this battle won’t conclude easily; it may drag on for a very long time, testing the patience and perseverance of all three involved.

"Ahhh!"

It was unclear how long it lasted, but suddenly a piercing scream echoed, seeming to come from the Profound Immortal named You Han.

"Chong Yan, you seek death!"

Energy containing terrifying Extreme Cold Power erupted immediately, spreading over hundreds of miles, causing snowflakes to fall.

If other creatures witnessed this, they would be incredibly shocked, as in The Void, there are no sunny, cloudy, or snowy days—only endless grey fog.

And the entity causing this phenomenon was precisely the peak Profound Immortal, You Han!

"To possess such immense energy at Profound Immortal level, how powerful must a Golden Immortal be? And Taiyi? Daluo? Or even the pinnacle of this Universe—the Daluo Dao Fruit!?" Li Zhirui’s heart was filled with boundless longing, hoping he might someday reach that Realm.

"Hahahaha..."

Yet Chong Yan showed no fear nor retreat; instead, he laughed aloud and said, "This should have been done a long time ago; let’s see whose strength is greater!"

Rumble——

As his words fell, the entire Void began to tremble, with a mountain rising thousands of feet high, gravity around it increasing suddenly.

Then the mountain, like a Great Seal, thundered toward You Han, unstoppable.

Crack!

You Han unleashed all his Mana, sending a deep blue Spirit Light to land on the mountain, instantly enveloping it, forming a thick layer of Profound Ice, forcefully halting it in midair.

But before he could celebrate, with a boom, the ice shattering, the mountain continued to crush forward, as if the earlier barrier was just a brief pause.

"Impossible!"

Seeing this scene, You Han was stunned, unable to believe his Divine Power was so easily broken.

Yet reality was as such; now he could only give his all to correct, avoiding injury and disadvantage.

Though he had exerted all effort to correct his earlier mistake and successfully blocked this strike, it still affected him significantly.

And for battles at their level, this impact could very well be the deciding factor in You Han’s defeat!

Relentless, Chong Yan continued to launch powerful Divine Power attacks in hopes of gaining greater advantage, ultimately defeating his opponent and securing victory!

However, despite You Han gradually falling behind, his formidable strength still supported him in battle, and there was still a chance to turn the tide.

As long as he seized even a small flaw in Chong Yan, the situation could instantly change.

Unfortunately, Chong Yan gave him no such chance; though aggressive in appearance, his fighting style protected himself well.

No matter how You Han attacked, Chong Yan could respond promptly and protect himself.

As time passed, though both were peak Profound Immortals, the battle consumed a great deal of their spirit, eventually becoming a contest of willpower.

But looking at their appearance, one could see You Han looked more battered, his aura weaker.

Under such circumstances, barring surprises, he was likely the one to lose.

What outcome would befall him still depended on his decision.

If he chose to retreat and stop fighting for the Hundred-year Dao Fruit now, he’d suffer only minor injuries; but if he persisted, the outcome could be uncertain.

Perhaps he’d turn the tide, achieving victory from defeat; perhaps he’d flee heavily injured; or perhaps he’d perish, his life ending here!

When facing the temptation of the Hundred-year Dao Fruit, many beings would make the same choice as him—not to admit defeat so easily!

You Han decided to continue fighting for the Hundred-year Dao Fruit.

"Even now, you refuse to admit defeat? Do you truly want to decide life and death?" Chong Yan asked coldly, his face grim.

Originally, he thought You Han would withdraw, no longer willing to compete, especially since You Han was not in good shape, risking years of cultivation going to waste.

But things didn’t unfold as Chong Yan had hoped; moreover, his own consumption was significant, with little Mana left.

Continuing fighting, even if he won, wasn’t safe; should some accident occur, both would suffer!

Especially considering the earlier appearance of a Mystic Immortal Cultivator—who knew if he’d truly left? What if he was hidden at the edge of the battlefield, waiting to make a move?

"Hahaha, if you’re afraid, you might as well give me the Hundred-year Dao Fruit directly!" You Han promptly grasped the intent in Chong Yan’s words, fearing they’d become the ’sandpiper and clam’, only for a ’fisherman’ to profit.

But the more so, the less likely he was to retreat; rather, he was determined to fight to the end.

For perhaps, this was his chance to turn the tide!

"Since you seek death, I’ll grant it!" Chong Yan, enraged after being exposed, launched an attack.

Rumble——

Suddenly, countless meteors descended in The Void, continuously targeting You Han.

Yet he countered, unleashing ice blades to strike the meteors, resolving the majority despite himself being damaged.

Both were now exhausted; whoever endured to the end would win the Hundred-year Dao Fruit!

...

Meanwhile.

Li Zhirui, concealed at the battlefield’s edge, sensed the energy fluctuations weakening significantly, becoming aware.

Knowing their battle was nearing its conclusion!

Moreover, the situation seemed to head in his favored, advantageous direction—with both severely hurt, or one dead and the other gravely injured.

Should either scenario occur, Li Zhirui could possibly seize both of their Spiritual Objects.

"Be patient, it’s not yet time for me to appear."

If he emerged prematurely, it might alert them and prompt changes.

This was what Li Zhirui didn’t wish to happen, so he chose to continue waiting!

Time flew by, how long was uncertain.

Boom!

Suddenly, a deafening explosion erupted nearby.

A furious roar followed: "You Han, you madman!"

Rumble!

This explosion triggered successive blasts, causing massive destruction at the battlefield center, the terrifying energy ravaging all!

Even far-off Li Zhirui felt a chill of fear, keen on discovering what occurred to cause such a frightening attack.

After some time, the explosion’s remnants finally calmed down.

Li Zhirui remained concealed, diligently restraining his aura and cautiously drawing near to the battlefield.
