Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor-Chapter 799, Heading to the Stars

Half a month flew by in the blink of an eye. On this day, at the center of the eighth floor of the Life and Death Tower, a terrifying Sword Aura ripped through the sky, accompanied by the faint rumbling of thunder, producing a crackling sound.

Rip!

The void suddenly tore open, and a red figure emerged. Chu Ming's Sword Dao had reached its pinnacle, with countless Sword Dao Marks swirling around him in an extremely terrifying manner.

"Sigh, the Celestial Extinction Thunder Shadow Sword has finally reached the Transformation Realm!"

Chu Ming exhaled softly, thinking to himself.

The difficulty of cultivating the Celestial Extinction Thunder Shadow Sword exceeded his expectations. Initially, he thought it would take seven or eight days to reach the Transformation Realm, but it ended up taking twice as long.

Boom!

A dazzling light streaked by, and a crimson figure approached from a distance. As the figure arrived in front of Chu Ming, Feng Yuyan's stunning face was revealed.

"How about it? Are we ready to head to the starry sky together?"

In fact, Feng Yuyan had completed her seclusion five days ago. She had stayed in the Life and Death Tower waiting for Chu Ming so they could go to the starry sky together.

"Yes!"

Chu Ming nodded slightly. As a member of the Human Race, he felt he should contribute to his people.

Just as Chu Ming was about to leave, Feng Yuyan called out to him. "Wait a moment. Let's have a spar first!"

With those words, before Chu Ming could react, Feng Yuyan charged at him, her body ablaze with scorching flames.

Screech!

Chu Ming's reflexes were honed to perfection. As the flames approached, he wielded the Azure Sky Sword and executed a Sword Slash. A silver-white Sword Aura engulfed the world, instantly swallowing Feng Yuyan.

Crack!

A crisp sound echoed as a fearsome fiery giant palm shattered through the Sword Aura. Chu Ming remained calm, as he hadn't expected to defeat Feng Yuyan with a single strike.

Feng Yuyan had an extremely powerful special physique. Coupled with treasures she obtained in the Holy Tomb, her combat strength was nearly on par with Chu Ming.

Boom!

"Nine Yang Sunset!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

With a furious cry, Feng Yuyan retreated from the Sword Aura. Raising her arms slightly, she gathered the Fire Elemental Power frenziedly. In an instant, nine blazing fireballs formed above her head, resembling nine suns.

Boom!

A fiery red fireball streaked across the sky, hurtling towards Chu Ming. The void twisted and turned to chaos, the azure sky descending into nothingness.

"Heaven-Burying Sword!"

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Chu Ming's body swiftly retreated, leaving countless afterimages. In a flash, the Azure Sky Sword unleashed Three Swords, with the majestic Sword Aura condensed to the extreme.

Whoosh!

The Three Swords slashed out, instantly shattering the nine fireballs in the sky to pieces. However, Chu Ming did not relax, sensing an unease.

Rip!

Suddenly, a faint sound came from behind. At the same time, a scorching, sky-burning sensation surged in his heart.

"Not good!"

Surprised, Chu Ming quickly turned his body. Another rip, and a void tore open. The Azure Sky Sword condensed Sword Aura, slashing quickly as a slightly ethereal Sword Aura burst out, roaring like a dragon in reverse.

Boom!

A terrifying fireball shot down from behind Chu Ming. The destructive power contained in this fireball far exceeded the combined might of the previous nine.

Pew! Pew! Pew...

The Sword Aura clashed with the fireball, resembling a nuclear explosion. The fragments of the Sword Aura and flames ravaged the surroundings, and Chu Ming's figure was instantly engulfed.

"Hmm?"

Feng Yuyan descended from high above, staring at Chu Ming's direction, her face puzzled.

Boom!

A faint light burst from the flames, and Chu Ming's figure shot out from the fire. Simultaneously, the Azure Sky Sword slashed down, the piercing Sword Aura filled with the essence of destruction.

Slice! Slice! Slice!

In mid-air, the Sword Shadows overlapped and the flames shot wildly. In terms of lethality, Chu Ming and Feng Yuyan were evenly matched. However, once Feng Yuyan unleashed her special physique, her power could surpass Chu Ming's. But Chu Ming had an advantage; his Body Refining Power had also reached the level of a King.

Feng Yuyan's attacks barely scratched him, putting him in an inherently unbeatable position.

In the blink of an eye, thousands of moves were exchanged, and Feng Yuyan's momentum began to wane.

Boom!

Feng Yuyan's delicate body trembled and instantly parted from Chu Ming, panting heavily. "No more, no more. Your Body Refining Power has reached the level of a King. I'm no match for you!"

Chu Ming stopped and said calmly, "Your talent is already very strong. For now, I'm still a step ahead, but this may not be the case in the future."

Feng Yuyan neither confirmed nor denied it. She knew the terrifying potential of her physique. Once fully unlocked, her cultivation speed would only get faster.

"Alright, let's head to the starry sky!"

Feng Yuyan smiled, no longer dwelling on the matter.

Chu Ming and Feng Yuyan used the Teleportation Array from the eighth floor to return to the first floor of the Life and Death Tower. Then, they left the Life and Death Tower.

The starry sky had always been a mysterious existence. It lay beyond the Fourth Heaven of the Celestial Martial Continent. Generally, unless one reached the Life and Death Realm King, traveling to the starry sky required using a space channel, which was incredibly slow, taking two months for one passage.

However, a Life and Death Realm King could directly travel to the starry sky through the atmosphere, taking at most three days. For experts like Chu Ming and Feng Yuyan, who had reached the level of Kings, one day was sufficient.

Swish! Swish!

The two set off together and soon passed the Fourth Heaven. At this point, the spatial resistance suddenly increased, and their speed was reduced to a third of its original pace.

Above them, a layer of hazy mist appeared, but Chu Ming and Feng Yuyan knew it wasn't mist. It was the atmosphere surrounding the Celestial Martial Continent.

"The surrounding temperature is slowly rising!"

Feng Yuyan noticed abruptly, as her cultivation of the Secrets of Fire made her highly sensitive to temperature changes.

Chu Ming paused briefly and sensed it as well. Immediately, he realized Feng Yuyan was right. The temperature here was three to four degrees higher than when they left the Celestial Martial Continent.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The two continued rising, but they found that the higher they went, the faster the temperature rose. Chu Ming thought to himself, no wonder only those at the Life and Death Realm could reach the starry sky without using a spatial channel. At the current temperature, it was enough to burn even a strong cultivator in the Realm of Transcendence to ashes.

Rip!

Half a day later, Chu Ming and Feng Yuyan passed through a membrane-like layer. Suddenly, the temperature in the air plummeted, almost returning to the levels of the Celestial Martial Continent.

"Chu Ming, look!"

Feng Yuyan exclaimed in surprise, pointing to the endless starry sky.
