Chapter 2135
Boom!
Underneath everyone's watchful gazes, two blistering attacks smashed decisively into each other.
One side had unleashed the Red Flame Finger, backed by the power of the Dragon Gate, whereas the other was the combination of Invoke the Celestial Sky's seven Forms—Wheel of Fate.
It was the greatest secret of Invoke the Celestial Sky that Chu Yunyang created.
The technique contained nine Forms in total.
Even though they were executed individually, all of them were actually interconnected.
Every Form laid the groundwork for the next, while every subsequent Form was the cumulation of the previous technique.
For example, Wheel of Fate might just be a single Form, but it contained the overwhelming power that culminated from the seven Forms that preceded it.
As every Form was stronger than its predecessor, Wheel of Fate was significantly more powerful than all seven Forms combined.
That was what Ye Fan had relied upon and the reason he could achieve god realm with the body of a mere mortal.
Furthermore, he dared to take on the Chu Sect all by himself, deriving his courage from Chu Yunyang's legacy—the power of Invoke the Celestial Sky.
Meanwhile, everyone watched as the massive Wheel of Fate, in all its glory, went all out against Chu Yuan's Great Flame Dragon Finger.
At that moment, the heavens and earth trembled violently, as if everything was about to be torn apart.
A blinding light illuminated the horizon, bathing it in a divine glow.
Thereafter, a terrifying and chaotic force engulfed the sky as if it was heralding the Apocalypse.
The earth-shattering impact that resulted was significantly stronger than the earlier clash, a sight that blew everyone's minds.
As for King Folo and the others, they felt a tingling sensation in their heads while their bodies shivered so violently that it was as if they were about to explode.
“I-Is he still human? How can a mortal achieve such incredible power?”
Terror and disbelief filled everyone's mind.
As for the rest of the members of the martial arts world, they almost dropped to their knees in awe.
They were overwhelmed by the urge to worship the world's most powerful force and the two men who stood at the pinnacle of power.
Regardless of the outcome, the glorious battle that unfolded had etched its place in the annals of history.
Meanwhile, late at night at the Chu residence hundreds of miles away, a dim red light was swaying gently.
Even though it was time for bed, a restless feeling continued to dog Grand Old Lady Chu.
After leaving the room, she gazed far out in the direction of Yunzhou.
“I wonder what Ye Fan's current situation is. Whether the Chu family can be cleansed at its root, the glory of Mr. Yunyang restored, and peace be returned to this world, the burden is now yours to bear, Ye Fan.”
Grand Old Lady Chu's troubled mind was reflected in her deep-set eyes as she said a little prayer for him. NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
She was well aware that Ye Fan was still young.
When his father was his age, the former had spent his time chasing skirts and refused to train in martial arts.
In contrast, Ye Fan was now shouldering a heavy responsibility, a fact that made Grand Old Lady Chu feel as if she had failed him.
At an age when he was supposed to be enjoying life, Ye Fan was embroiled in a struggle for life and death.
Nonetheless, that was how heroes were born throughout the passage of time.
“Ye Fan, you're the one chosen by Mr. Yunyang, and I know that you won't betray the hopes that everyone has placed on you,” Grand Old Lady Chu prayed from the depths of her heart.
Amidst the uneasiness she felt, she caught a glimpse of a glowing hue far into the horizon.
Despite being hundreds of miles away, the vibrance of the terrifying power could still be clearly seen.
A sudden gale howled through the trees as it tore through the small town, eliciting a frown from Grand Old Lady Chu.
“It seems that the battle has begun.”
All of a sudden, anxiety descended upon Grand Old Lady Chu, for she knew that the result of the decisive battle would soon become evident.
Just like that, she stood in the courtyard, observing the battle's progress from afar until she saw tens of millions of black shrouds swarming toward Yunzhou.
At the same time, the ground beneath her feet shook violently as if something was trying to climb out from the soil.
The turn of events triggered a drastic change in Grand Old Lady Chu's expression.
“D*mn it! That b*stard has used a forbidden technique by casting demonic magic!”
Grand Old Lady Chu was outraged by the discovery.
Amidst her anger, the walking stick she was holding began to shake.
It was quickly followed by a blistering golden light interrupting the serenity of the courtyard.
In the blink of an eye, countless motifs emerged underneath Grand Old Lady Chu's feet, forming what looked like a magic seal.
All of a sudden, the disturbance in the courtyard gradually dissipated, with peace quickly returning to the area.
In spite of that, Grand Old Lady Chu's mind was anything but peaceful.
“The situation is precarious. I'm afraid Ye Fan might not be strong enough to fight back. If that b*stard has used a forbidden technique in advance, Ye Fan will not stand a chance even with Blackie's help.”
The panic Grand Old Lady Chu felt drained all color from her face.
Overwhelmed with regret, she could feel tears streaming down her cheeks.
“Can it be that fate wants to end the Chu family? Ye Fan's death will bring about the end of Mr. Yunyang's bloodline. Oh, Mr. Yunyang, can you do something to protect your descendant?” Grand Old Lady Chu wailed with a glint of anguish in her eyes.
She couldn't help but blame herself for setting Ye Fan down the path of doom.
“No, I have to go save him. I cannot allow the Chu family's bloodline to end!”
No sooner had she steeled herself and attempted to dash out of the Chu residence than a golden barrier glowed in the air, preventing her from leaving.
Regardless of how hard she struck it, even to the extent of puking blood, Grand Old Lady Chu failed to breach it one bit.
Just as despair took over her, she felt a powerful force approaching from the horizon.
When she turned around and looked up, it was none other than the Wheel of Fate.
Half black and half white, it symbolized both life and death.
“T-The Wheel of Fate! The Eighth Form of Invoke the Celestial Sky—Wheel of Fate! Y-Ye Fan, you actually succeeded in learning the Eighth Form?”
Grand Old Lady Chu was utterly dumbfounded.
Nonetheless, the trepidation on her face quickly turned into a brimming elation.
“Haha... the Eighth Form. Throughout the last millennium, no one other than Mr. Yunyang had unlocked the Eighth Form of Invoke the Celestial Sky. And now, Ye Fan has actually done it! Do you see it, Mr. Yunyang? Your legacy lives on!”
Tears streamed down Grand Old Lady Chu's face as her body quivered in emotion.
Relief, excitement, and ecstasy flooded into her all at once.
At that moment, the spark of hope within her was reignited with great fanfare.
Even though she wasn't sure if the Eight Form was enough to defeat the enemy, it was undeniable that Ye Fan now had another formidable technique.
The rest subsequently laid in the hands of fate.
“Ye Fan, you have to survive. I'll be waiting here for you,” Grand Old Lady Chu prayed with her fists tightly clenched.
All of a sudden, she caught a fragrant scent in the breeze.
It was followed by a slender silhouette flashing past the courtyard. Leaping into the air, the figure dashed toward where the thunderstorm was brewing.
“Girl, come back! Your wound hasn't healed yet!” the shocked Grand Old Lady Chu shouted repeatedly.
In spite of that, the figure had already disappeared into the night.
“Master, wait for me. In life or in death, I will always be by your side.”
Underneath the shining moon and twinkling stars that dotted the sky, the teary-eyed Eigetsu couldn't be any more resolute, just like a moth to a flame.
At the same time, hundreds of miles away, three figures in Jiangdong had also noticed the strange phenomenon.
“Ms. Tang, look. What is that?” the Demonic Duo exclaimed, pointing to the horizon.
When the elegant-looking lady beside them caught a glimpse of it, her expression drastically changed.
“It seems that Master is embroiled in a brutal battle. Let's go. We have to hurry.”
