Shocking World War Emperor-Chapter 972: Between Life and Death

"Blood Lotus Shura Slash!"

Ling Chen shouted fiercely, exerting all his strength to once again unleash the tenth form of the Green Lotus Sword Manual, this minor divine art.

"Boom!"

The Sun and Moon Seal and Blood Sword clashed once again.

This time, the tables turned once more.

The Sun and Moon Seal shattered the Blood Sword again.

Ye Futu did not disperse the Sun and Moon Seal voluntarily.

The Sun and Moon Seal continued its oppression toward Ling Chen.

"Slash!"

Ling Chen wielded the Sun and Moon Divine Blade, spiritual power surging wildly, as his right hand swung toward the Sun and Moon Seal.

"Bang!"

The Sun and Moon Seal struck the Sun and Moon Divine Blade.

A terrifying force erupted.

It directly sent Ling Chen flying nearly a thousand zhang away.

"Puff!"

During his backward flight, a mouthful of fresh blood spewed from his lips, tracing a beautiful but sorrowful line of blood. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Whoosh!"

Ling Chen had just stabilized his stance when he stomped fiercely, charging once more toward Ye Futu.

At the same time, the Sun and Moon Divine Blade unleashed the Blood Lotus Shura Slash once more.

"Courting death!"

Seeing Ling Chen charging toward him, Ye Futu frowned, swirling the Devouring Sky Wheel and once again deploying the Sun and Moon Seal.

"Bang!"

The Sun and Moon Seal shattered the Blood Sword, sending Ling Chen flying once more.

Ling Chen spat out another mouthful of fresh blood.

However, Ling Chen did not give up.

Once stabilized, Ling Chen continued his assault.

It seemed as if Ling Chen was the one seizing the initiative and gaining the upper hand in the battlefield.

"Bang bang bang bang..."

Time and again, Ling Chen was repelled.

Yet he charged with a fearless resolve.

Initiating attack.

By now, Ling Chen’s white robe was completely stained with blood, turning into a blood robe.

"Boom!"

At that moment, Ling Chen’s aura abruptly changed.

His cultivation in the Divine Soul pathway advanced again.

Reaching the pinnacle of four-star late stage.

With a death-defying spirit and the aid of the Dream Devouring Heavenly Mo, Ling Chen finally achieved the strength of a nine-star pinnacle powerhouse.

"Boom!"

The Blood Sword and the Sun and Moon Seal clashed again.

The Sun and Moon Seal shattered the Blood Sword.

Yet, when it ultimately pressed upon Ling Chen, it was not as terrifying as before.

It merely repelled Ling Chen a few dozen zhang.

"What?!"

Ye Futu was shocked.

Unexpectedly, Ling Chen managed to break through at this critical moment.

Although he still held the upper hand, killing Ling Chen with this approach would not be easy!

"Your talent is indeed impressive! Even at such a juncture, you can still break through!"

Ye Futu said, "However, this is your end; your cultivation has also reached its limit."

Nine-star late stage pinnacle is the limit of the Emperor Realm.

Ling Chen barely handled the attacks due to his final breakthrough.

Clearly, these are Ling Chen’s all cards!

"Limit? Not necessarily. The path I’m walking is different from yours!"

Ling Chen replied.

"Spirit and soul dual cultivation, perhaps?"

Ye Futu sneered.

As he spoke, a powerful surge of divine soul telekinesis swept towards Ling Chen.

"Bang!"

Ling Chen wielded the Sun and Moon Divine Blade to shatter the telekinesis.

"Nine-star late-stage pinnacle Emperor-grade Divine Thought Master?"

Ling Chen was taken aback.

Li Qingchan and the others were also extremely shocked.

No one knew that Ye Futu had also cultivated his Divine Soul to such an extent.

"That’s right!"

Ye Futu said, "I have walked this path too. But in the end, I gave up. Let me tell you, there’s nothing particularly special about these two paths."

"Is that so?"

Ling Chen shook his head, saying, "You and I are different. With a five-star spiritual power pathway and a four-star divine soul pathway, I can exert the strength of a nine-star Great Emperor! How can you compare to me?"

Ye Futu said, "I know. Because, once you reach my level, you’ll understand. Unless you reach the God Realm, you will find no progress!"

"To be honest, I am now not far from the God Realm. No need to worry, being the successor to the Sun and Moon Divine Body, I will use Sun and Moon Divine Body techniques to send you off!"

Ye Futu sneered coldly.

His divine soul telekinesis infused the hovering Devouring Sky Wheel in front of him.

Dazzling radiance burst forth.

"In the Sun and Moon Divine Blade, there are two minor divine arts!"

"One is the Sun and Moon Seal you’ve witnessed!"

"And the second is an illusion technique named Between Life and Death!"

"So, prepare to die!"

As he finished speaking, the Devouring Sky Wheel emitted divine soul telekinesis beams.

Culminating in both hands.

In the left hand, a blazing sun condensed out.

In the right hand, a full moon.

Precisely opposite to the Sun and Moon Seal.

Then, he slightly moved his hands, merging the moon and sun.

Similarly appearing in the form of a Bagua shape.

However, the Bagua spun wildly.

Soon, forming an extremely small black point.

Followed by shooting toward Ling Chen.

Directly entering his Divine Soul.

"Buzz!"

A buzzing sound resonated as Ling Chen entered a void space.

Silence all around.

Not a sound to be heard.

Suddenly, a black and white portal emerged before him.

"Come back, my child!"

A voice echoed from the portal.

This voice bore an irresistible attraction.

Ling Chen involuntarily moved toward the black and white portal.

"Come back!"

"Come back!"

...

The closer he got to the black and white portal, the greater the allure of that voice.

Soon, Ling Chen was right in front of the black and white portal.

Only a step away from entering within.

This ’Between Life and Death’ was an illusion realm-type minor divine art.

Ye Futu had reached the Emperor’s limit.

His Divine Soul far exceeded other cultivators.

Only one step away from a true Primordial Spirit.

With just the baptism of the Divine Tribulation, he could become a true Divine being.

A Divine being’s immortality stems significantly from the ascension of their Divine Soul.

The Primordial Spirit is the result of that ascension.

Thus, by utilizing divine soul telekinesis to unleash the ’Between Life and Death,’ its power reached the Emperor’s extreme.

Unless a Divine personally demonstrates, no one could surpass it.

Even with the nurture of Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire, Ling Chen’s Divine Soul was no match for Ye Futu.

After all, his cultivation time was short.

Moreover, he had just recently reached the culmination of the Divine Soul pathway.

Watching Ling Chen instantly become unresponsive, Ye Futu sighed softly.

Things were finally concluding.

Undeniably, Ling Chen’s performance indeed left a deep impression on him.

At the very least, no other Divine Body could have fared better.

He wouldn’t have needed to deploy ’Between Life and Death’ to finish off another Divine Body.

"Die!"

The Devouring Sky Wheel on Ye Futu burst with the Sun and Moon Power’s radiance.

Then a beam of Sun and Moon Power shot toward Ling Chen.

Currently, Ling Chen was utterly immersed in the illusion realm.

He didn’t need to employ a stronger attack.

One burst of Sun and Moon Power, empowered by a divine artifact, was enough!

Ling Chen, one of the Sun and Moon Divine Body’s inheritors, dying under the Sun and Moon Power seemed fitting.

"Chen Er!"

Seeing Ling Chen’s lack of response, Li Qingchan shouted anxiously.

They had only just reunited; are they now going to be separated again?

This time, the separation would be eternal!

"Brother!"

Ling Wu also cried out, tears streaming from her eyes.

Luo Shuixian, the Great Elder, and others from the Heavenly Alliance were equally filled with sorrow.
