Chapter 1390 Bright Light Rises Through the Black Tide

Even if the fighters of Dongxuan Temple do not deliberately unleash their power, they still shine as brightly as stars in the eyes of fighters of the same level.

This is far beyond what a towering flame can compare to.

Therefore, even though Chen Chuan did not make any special movements, and simply stood there quietly, Wan Ke immediately noticed his presence and ordered the fleet to turn in his direction.

Wan Ke's eyes, hidden beneath his mask, remained fixed on Chen Chuan, their gaze sharp and unwavering.

Just hours earlier, he had received intelligence that fighters from the Da Shun Dong Xuan Guan were suspected of appearing at the front lines, so he rushed over as a precaution.

Generally speaking, when the Great Shun Dynasty and the old imperial family fight, there are usually no fighters from the Dongxuan Temple; at most, there are fighters from the Changsheng Temple.

The fighters of Dongxuan Temple are extremely destructive; once they are deployed, they can raze a city or a large area of ​​territory to the ground in a short period of time.

If you come from my side, I can go to your side as well, and it's very difficult to intercept you in time. So even the stronger side usually suffers huge losses.

Furthermore, once the battles between fighters from Dongxuan Temple escalate, they are very likely to attract the attention of higher-level forces. If these forces were to get involved, the nature of the conflict would be completely different. Therefore, Dongxuan Temple fighters do not move until a war of national annihilation is imminent, which can be considered a tacit understanding between the two sides.

It was precisely for this reason that when he went to inspect the front lines as was customary each year, the emperor immediately summoned him back, precisely to prevent the Shun dynasty from finding an excuse during negotiations.

But now, the Great Shun side has secretly sent out fighters from the Dongxuan Temple. What does this mean? Does it mean they intend to destroy the country?

He was filled with rage. Wasn't Da Shun afraid of paying a huge price for doing this?
As the airship fleet gradually approached, the Da Shun personnel standing on the high ground discovered that the airship was much larger than they had imagined, measuring four or five hundred meters in length and made entirely of various biological materials, making it look like a living thing.

Wan Ke himself was estimated to be at least seven meters tall, and his mount was even larger and more imposing. It was perched high on the top of the airship, looking down at the world. Pale white spiritual flames floated around it, giving off an extremely powerful sense of oppression.

And as the person gradually approached, a spiritual field naturally emanated outwards. In the blending night, all of this appeared almost tangible, resembling mist or a pale, rosy glow.

Under the mental pressure of the Dongxuan Temple fighters, anyone with a low level of skill or weakness would be unable to stand before them. Therefore, in just a moment, most of the people here would lose their fighting ability.

But at that very moment, the spiritual power that was like mist suddenly came to a standstill, as it was blocked by a huge, invisible barrier.

Furthermore, due to the materialization of the opposing spiritual power, everyone could see that this invisible barrier covered an extremely wide area, almost encompassing most of the area surrounding the Da Shun military camp.

And the source of all this is Chen Chuan.

This vast mental field not only shocked everyone, but also made Wan Ke's pupils shrink.

Just then, deep within the Sky Whale, a mutated white, brain-like creature suddenly issued a warning to him:
"General Wan, a high-energy field beyond the limit has been detected. Please increase vigilance..."

"After identity verification, this person is very likely Chen Chuan, a general of the pseudo-dynasty!"

The old imperial court did not have a central city and maintained the old system structure. The lower levels hardly used boundary tokens or active consciousness entities, but the middle and upper-level officers also had their own large mutated creatures responsible for storing data and analyzing strategies.

Wan Ke has tentacles encircling his neck, responsible for communicating with this creature in the field. These tentacles are called "entwined necks." At this moment, a light screen appears on the top of the entwined necks, displaying various introductions about Chen Chuan.

The old imperial family paid close attention to the various powerful fighters of the Great Shun Dynasty and would conduct long-term data collection.

Chen Chuan killed General Su Kuo, the General Who Conquers the East, causing the counterattack in Jibei Road to completely collapse and the military strength to be greatly damaged. He had already been recorded in the Red Book of the old imperial family. The subsequent Battle of Tianji Peak was even more exaggerated.

What does it mean for one person to fight against more than ten Dongxuan Temples? Theoretically, one person could restrain most of the pillars of the old imperial family. Under the power of the upper echelons, no one could fight against him alone.

Because of the level of threat he posed, the old imperial family even elevated him to the first position in the Red Register.

Upon hearing the name, Wan Ke felt a chill run down his spine and asked, "Are you sure?"

"confirm.

General Wan, this man is extremely dangerous. It's not advisable to engage in conflict with him; retreating is the best course of action.

Wan Ke stared at Chen Chuan, and at this moment he could vaguely sense that the other party might be targeting him, and that the intelligence report might be problematic.

However, the geographical location of the intersection of Anbei and Dao is extremely important. Losing the northern entrance to Youdu would open up a new frontier. Since he has come here, he absolutely cannot back down.

He said coldly, "From this moment on, I don't want to hear the word 'retreat' from you again!"

The mutated creatures on the other side immediately fell silent in fear.

At this moment, Wan Ke opened his palm, and soon white phosphorescent light slowly rose and floated above, condensing into several huge circular gas clouds, completely illuminating this area.

At the same time, he urged the hairy sea earthworm to leap down from above, and white mist was generated below its four feet, making it float in the air.

He raised his spear high, then slowly lowered it, finally pointing the spear tip at Chen Chuan, clearly challenging the latter to a duel.

Upon seeing this, a platinum-gold light appeared around Chen Chuan, and his figure rose from the high hill, carried by billowing white steam. At this moment, Chao Ming let out a whistle and suddenly leaped up from his shoulder, its colorful feathers swaying like seven-colored smoke. Its body suddenly grew larger, spun in mid-air, and landed beneath him.

He stepped onto Chaoming's back and stood firmly. Chaoming then leaped up with its four claws, and colorful clouds and light emanated from beneath it, instantly rising into the sky.

He held the Snow Lord Blade, the red scarf on its hilt fluttering outwards, and stared at Wan Ke across the distance.

Upon seeing this, Shan Yuchuan issued a swift order for everyone to retreat. He knew very well that this was a battle they could not participate in, and they couldn't even get close.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the battlefield, Hong Ancheng and Zhu Kongqi were locked in a fierce battle with Zong Chi.

Almost simultaneously, the three of them sensed the heavy pressure coming from afar, knowing that a higher-level fighter had taken up the battle. However, at this moment, none of them could afford to be distracted, focusing solely on the opponent before them.

Chen Chuan did not rush to make a move, but instead analyzed his opponent.

Because of the strict hierarchy within the old imperial family, there was little opportunity for someone like Wan Ke to take the lead, so there is very little information about him.

However, there were almost no human-type fighters in the old imperial family, and Wan Ke's physique should be an abnormal one.

Even against a divine being, fighting them is at most a bit troublesome, but against an otherworldly being, it's much more dangerous because you can't predict what kind of supernatural power they possess. If you don't handle it properly, you'll fall into their trap and actually help them grow stronger.

However, those like the "speedy outline" are ultimately a minority, and you'll find out what they really are once you try them.

This is a war between two countries, and the sooner it ends, the better. So he has no interest in slowly wearing down the other side. After making a quick assessment, he clenched his fist, and a ball of white-gold light flashed on the surface of his fist.

He leaned forward, instantly bridging the long distance between them and appearing directly in front of Wan Ke.

Then, he threw a punch!
This was just a simple punch, but it perfectly demonstrated the ultimate speed and power of a human. This had already surpassed the theoretical upper limit of the Dongxuan Temple, and Wan Ke didn't even have time to react until the punch landed on him.

With a loud boom, it was as if a giant sun appeared in the sky, illuminating the night in the land of fusion as if it were daytime.

The onlookers couldn't help but close their eyes. When the light subsided and they opened their eyes, they saw Chen Chuan still in the posture of throwing a punch, his fist still shimmering with platinum light. But there was nothing in front of him, only countless shimmering fragments of light falling to the ground.

Everyone was stunned. Could it be that a single punch had killed Wan Ke, the former imperial general?!

Dan Yuchuan frowned. He couldn't quite put his finger on it, but he had a feeling that it wasn't over yet.

Chen Chuan's gaze sharpened. Based on that punch, he had realized that what he had just touched was not a split body, but its true form.

In this way, at most, he left some alienated organizations behind.

but……

Although the attack just now shattered it, he could sense that the opponent's aura was still there. After shattering, it seemed to have vanished into some kind of nothingness and was brewing, and then it subtly transformed into a new aura.

This is undoubtedly the effect of the other party's supernatural power.

Right in front of him, in that void, a figure with multiple faces seemed to appear and disappear, floating back and forth. After a moment, a crazed face suddenly turned to face him, and then slowly turned from illusion to reality.

Wan Ke's extraordinary form is the ancient deity 'Formless Demon', but it should actually be 'Five-Form Demon'.

This is not only the object he contemplates, but also the object he worships. He retains a wisp of the ancient demon god's aura within him, thus he also possesses a portion of its power.

The formless demon possesses five aspects and five bodies, namely the aspect of wrath, the aspect of stillness, the aspect of madness, the aspect of joy, and finally, the various manifestations.

Each phase represents an extreme personality, along with a corresponding independent body and fighting style.

Each aspect has its advantages and disadvantages. For example, the joyful aspect is unrestrained and often has all sorts of disrespectful and delusional thoughts. Its fighting style also becomes unpredictable and flamboyant. On the other hand, the angry aspect has greatly increased strength in battle, far exceeding that of ordinary people, but its emotions are also very easy to lose control of.

The most remarkable thing is that each aspect is essentially an independent self, and even if one aspect is destroyed, the others can take turns appearing.

In other words, only by defeating all five phases can it be truly killed.

In this way, he effectively possesses five lives. Under normal circumstances, no matter how powerful the enemy, he can wear them down by relying on the five-phase rotation. Even if he cannot win the battle, almost no one can kill him easily.

Normally he maintains a calm and composed demeanor, but after being shattered by a punch, he now reveals a state of madness and frenzy.

Chen Chuan watched quietly, not paying attention to what kind of changes were taking place. When his body reappeared, before he could make a move, he threw another punch at him!
