All People: I Slay Gods with Martial Arts

10: Chapter 10: The Battle of TrialsHe gathered his thoughts.

Ye Xiu looked at the entrance of the ancient tower before him and frowned slightly.

The ancient gates were carved with terrifying statues, looking like two fierce demon gods from Hell.

”Should I not go in?”

He felt a bit apprehensive; just arriving at the entrance had almost caused his body and Dao to perish.

If it weren’t for the miraculous Heaven-Breaking Martial Body, anyone else would have likely been crushed to death by the boundless pressure long ago.

Ye Xiu stood silently at the entrance for a long time before reaching out to push open the ancient doors.

The doors were heavy, very heavy.

Only by unleashing all his strength was he barely able to push them open.

Creak...

As the doors slowly opened, the interior was hazy, making it impossible to see anything clearly.

Ye Xiu’s frown deepened.

He hesitated for a long while before deciding to go in and check the situation.

Since ancient times, wealth has been sought amidst danger.

Having come all this way through such hardship, if he were to shrink back now, all his previous efforts would be meaningless.

Thud.

The moment Ye Xiu entered the ancient tower, the ancient doors were immediately shut by a mysterious force.

”What’s going on?”

He was startled and immediately tried to pull the doors open.

But the hazy world began to shift.

In an instant, the first-floor hall of the ancient tower transformed into an ancient battlefield.

Blood stained the earth, and a mighty general clad in armor, with eyes glowing red, charged straight at him wielding a halberd.

Ye Xiu was stunned.

Before he could dodge, with a loud boom, he was sent flying by the halberd.

Bang.

The ground cracked.

He was slammed heavily onto the ground, the pain feeling incredibly real.

”Damn it, do you think I’m afraid of you?”

Seeing the general charging again with his halberd, Ye Xiu didn’t waste words; he sprang up and kicked out.

Boom.

The two sides clashed.

Ye Xiu, with the strength of 20 Dragon power, used an invincible momentum to forcefully kick the general away.

Before he could pursue.

The retreating general roared, ”Thousand Moon Slash.”

Instantly, a dozen purple energy halberd blades were unleashed from the halberd in his hand.

”Hmph, you think only you can do that? Overlord Fist Seal.”

Ye Xiu also shouted angrily, punching out a fist seal over a hundred meters in size, pressing it forward.

Boom... Boom... Boom...

The fist seal collided with the halberd blades.

The terrifying power whipped up a hurricane.

In just three or four seconds, after neutralizing seven of the blades, the fist seal was slashed apart by the remaining ones.

”Damn, so strong.”

Ye Xiu was speechless; this clash clearly showed he was suppressed, crushed by the opponent’s Martial Skill.

After all, in the previous clash of pure strength, he had outperformed the opponent.

Watching the six remaining halberd blades charging rapidly, he dodged with a sudden movement.

”Die!”

Taking advantage of Ye Xiu dodging the blades, the armored general closed the distance and slammed the halberd down hard.

Ye Xiu, still in the midst of dodging, couldn’t react in time and was struck in the chest by the halberd, crashing into the ground with a boom, creating a crater over a dozen meters wide.

”Damn it.”

Seeing the armored general leap high into the air, gripping the halberd with both hands, and stabbing down fiercely at him.

Ye Xiu unleashed all his blood Qi and shouted fiercely, ”Pride of the World.”

A blood-red light soared into the sky.

A beam of blood-red light, composed of blood Qi, blasted towards the attacking armored general.

Boom.

The world shook.

Under the attack of the blood-red light beam, the armored general was blasted into the sky.

Ye Xiu did not let his guard down; although ”Pride of the World” was powerful, it definitely couldn’t kill the opponent in one hit.

The first-floor hall of this ancient tower seemed like a trial.

This armored general who had suddenly appeared was extremely strong, a Peak existence within the Transcendence Realm.

Perhaps, like him, he had achieved Great Perfection in the Transcendence Realm and had stepped into the Domain of the Divine Void Realm.

However, he could feel that the opponent’s strength was only 18 Dragon power, 2 Dragon power less than his own.

This situation was likely because he had awakened the Heaven-Breaking Martial Body, which allowed his Physical Body to be stronger than any other existence in the same Realm.

Among Peak Divine Bodies.

At the same Realm, his upper limit would be significantly higher than other divine bodies.

This was perhaps another miraculous aspect of the Heaven-Breaking Martial Body.

”Luo Tian Meteor!”

A roar came down from the sky. The armored general, covered in blood, gripped his halberd and charged down from the sky with an unstoppable Aura.

Swish.

The sound of tearing through the air was terrifying.

A massive purple energy shockwave surged from the halberd, rushing rapidly towards Ye Xiu below.

Crack...

The ground cracked, and a violent wind rose.

Ye Xiu dared not be careless; the opponent was clearly using an ultimate move as well. He clenched his right fist, and his blood Qi erupted once more.

The sky-soaring blood light of ”Pride of the World,” carrying a lethal intent, blasted out from his fist.

Swish... Boom...

The blood-red light and the purple shockwave collided.

The terrifying energy riot shook the heavens and earth.

The armored general was sent flying again, and although Ye Xiu had gained the upper hand in this clash, the terrifying recoil force also blasted a crater over a hundred meters wide into the ground beneath him.

Pfft...

A mouthful of blood sprayed out.

Unleashing his full blood Qi twice in succession made Ye Xiu’s body feel quite uncomfortable.

Although ”Pride of the World” was extremely powerful, if used frequently, even the Heaven-Breaking Martial Body would experience some discomfort.

Looking at the still lively armored general.

Ye Xiu cursed inwardly.

Clenching his fists, he sprang up violently.

Immediately, the two sides began a fierce melee.

The loud booming sounds shook the heavens and earth.

Neither of them had entered the Sky-Soaring Realm, so they could not fight freely in the sky.

Therefore, the ground became their main battlefield.

As the battle continued.

Countless hundred-meter-wide craters dotted the land.

The two fought back and forth.

Every collision between his steel-like fists and the halberd sent out a shower of sparks.

As time passed.

The armored general began to show disadvantages. He had already been heavily injured by ”Pride of the World,” and now, as the battle continued, his body began to show signs of insufficient strength.

Strike while the iron is hot.

How could Ye Xiu let such an opportunity pass? He stuck close to the armored general, raining down continuous blows with his iron fists.

Boom.

Boom.

Boom.

The armored general found it increasingly difficult to resist; the armor on his body was cracked by Ye Xiu’s blows, and his originally indestructible halberd began to bend.

This battle of suppression continued for several more hours.

Finally, with the sound of metal snapping, the curtain fell on the battle.

Crack... Boom...

Ye Xiu smashed the halberd in half with one punch.

His offensive did not diminish; his powerful strength directly pierced through the opponent’s tattered armor.

With a bang.

The terrifying iron fist slammed into the armored general’s chest.

Boom...

Flesh and blood exploded, turning into specks of fluorescent light.

The battle ended.

Just as Ye Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, the battlefield immediately inverted, and the entire world began to fade rapidly.

In the blink of an eye.

He was back in the first-floor hall of the ancient tower.

This time, there was no longer any hazy mist in the hall.

He could clearly see everything in the hall.
