SACRED BODY OF THE IMMORTALS

In the deepest part of the Desolate Heaven Battlefield, there was a Heavenly Dao Arena.

Legend has it that this was the ultimate battleground where ancient prodigies dueled to compete for the Dao Certification Seals.

Although called an arena, the Heavenly Dao Arena appeared more like a massive island floating in the void when viewed.

Various restriction runes were branded into the void, preventing battle fluctuations from spreading outward.

At this moment, around the Heavenly Dao Arena, countless expectant prodigies of the Imperial Path had already gathered densely.

They were all waiting for the final battle of the Imperial Path Kings!

On one side was the number one on the Desolate Heaven Sacred Ranking, the reincarnated Sword Demon of the Ye family who had never tasted defeat since entering the Imperial Path.

On the other side was the divine son of the Jun family, bearing the title of Invincible Saint, with power that shook both ancient and modern times, truly a forbidden-level prodigy.

The terrifying feat of eliminating a thousand prodigies with one move in the Desolate Heaven Battlefield still circulated throughout the Imperial Path, becoming a legend.

It could be said that the battle between these two represented the pinnacle clash of the younger generation in the Desolate Heaven Immortal Realm!

Being able to witness a battle of this caliber was no less than obtaining a great opportunity for enlightenment.

Not a single prodigy cultivator would miss this battle!

Even Supreme Lord Du Tuo had arrived early to prepare.

At this moment, on the Heavenly Dao Arena.

Five jade seals with dazzling crystal light, emanating the aura of heavenly dao, were floating and rotating in midair.

These were the five Dao Certification Seals!

To the side, Ye Guchen was sitting cross-legged in the void, with a blood-stained Emperor-Slaying Sword placed across his knees.

He was waiting for his destined battle.

"This battle must be won!"

In the crowd of onlookers, a young man carrying a sword on his back clenched his fist.

He was Ye Nantian, an ancient freak of the Ye family.

But even as an ancient freak, Ye Nantian's status was far below that of Ye Guchen.

The fortune of the Ye family rested on Ye Guchen.

In a sense, this was also a contest of fortune between the Ye family and the Jun family!

At a certain moment, Ye Guchen seemed to sense something.

He slowly stood up.

The Emperor-Slaying Sword emitted a resonant metallic sound, hovering beside him of its own accord, like the most loyal comrade.

"Finally here?"

Ye Guchen murmured.

A towering sword intent erupted from within his body!

The stars trembled!

The heaven and earth shook!

His cultivation at the Great Perfection of the Saint Realm was also released without reservation!

This was the first time Ye Guchen fully revealed his cultivation before everyone.

"Indeed, it's the Great Perfection of the Saint Realm!" Some prodigies' eyes flickered.

Generally speaking, reincarnated ancient powerhouses had great advantages in terms of cultivation realms.

For example, some reincarnated Quasi-Emperors or Great Emperors could cultivate to extremely profound realms very early.

Although Ye Guchen had severed his past and reshaped his true self, his potential and talent remained intact.

Cultivating to the Great Perfection of the Saint Realm was not surprising.

However, for Jun Xiaoyao to cultivate to the Great Perfection of the Saint Realm at such a young age was truly an unprecedented anomaly.

Just as Ye Guchen released his battle intent.

In the distant sky, vast divine light surged, and a white-robed figure arrived like a divine king crossing realms.

Each step caused the celestial river of stars to tremble.

A terrifying ripple of power no weaker than Ye Guchen's spread out, making the surrounding prodigies feel a pressure like facing a deity!

Jun Xiaoyao had arrived!

Looking at Ye Guchen whose battle intent soared to the heavens and sword intent shocked the sky.

Jun Xiaoyao's brilliant divine eyes also carried a trace of faint surprise.

Ye Guchen was stronger than he had imagined.

But this way, it was more interesting.

If it were just another overwhelming victory, Jun Xiaoyao wouldn't have been interested in keeping this appointment.

He hoped someone could challenge him.

Behind Jun Xiaoyao, Jiang Shengyi, Jiang Luoli, Little Magic Fairy, Nine-Headed Lion, Jun Moxiao, Jun Lingcang, and others had also arrived.

A large group of people followed in grand procession.

Around the entire Heavenly Dao Arena, the crowd roared, and the atmosphere climbed to its peak!

"You've finally come."

Ye Guchen spoke, his voice steady and indifferent.

Seeing Jun Xiaoyao arrive, his cold and handsome face showed no ripples.

Even though Jun Xiaoyao had already made history, and the feat of eliminating a thousand people with one move had shocked the entire Desolate Heaven Immortal Realm.

But in Ye Guchen's eyes, there was not the slightest trace of fear.

What he had was only the excitement of meeting a worthy opponent and surging battle intent!

"I should thank you for not participating in the encirclement earlier," Jun Xiaoyao said.

If Ye Guchen had joined the ranks encircling Jiang Shengyi, she definitely wouldn't have been able to hold on until his arrival.

Hearing this, Ye Guchen indifferently shook his head and said: "No need for thanks, such despicable acts, I disdain to participate!"

Who was he?

He was the Sword Demon who had slain emperors under the starry sky!

Such a figure, even reincarnated, could never stoop to the same level as Long Xu Huang and his ilk.

That would be an insult to his character.

"Heh, I misjudged you then. Since that's the case, let me apologize with battle!"

Jun Xiaoyao's battle intent also surged.

Rarely did he feel his blood boiling like this.

Ye Guchen laughed heroically, his black hair dancing wildly, and proclaimed loudly: "Having tread the peak of the sword path, I ask the heroes of the world, Jun Xiaoyao, are you worthy of my sword?"

"Let the winds and clouds change, let heroes rise and fall, only Jun reigns as king, all under heaven are subjects!" Jun Xiaoyao's words were equally heroic, his spirit devouring thousands of miles like a tiger!

Watching these two supreme prodigies with their soaring spirit and world-embracing ambition, the blood of all prodigies present began to boil.

In the eyes of Jiang Shengyi, Jiang Luoli, and the other women, there was admiration and worship.

This was the man they adored, a man who dominated across ages and devoured mountains and rivers!

Even Supreme Lord Du Tuo's dormant blood, which had been quiet for long, began to boil again.

"Young and proud, how wonderful..." Supreme Lord Du Tuo smiled slightly.

Next, the world-shocking duel between the Ye family's Sword Demon and the Jun family's Divine Son fully commenced.

Jun Xiaoyao stepped forward, simply and directly launching a punch.

At this point, any words would seem pale and powerless.

Only a satisfying battle would be the greatest respect for each other.

As Jun Xiaoyao struck, the vast punch light obscured the sun, moon, and stars, like a collapsing sky falling down.

Ye Guchen didn't use the Emperor-Slaying Sword, but similarly struck out with his palm.

"Has Ye Guchen gone mad, actually engaging in physical combat with Jun Xiaoyao?" Many prodigies watched with widened eyes.

Jun Xiaoyao's physical body was famously formidable.

Among the younger generation, who could withstand it?

Boom!

As their fist and palm connected, it was like two galaxies colliding, erupting in boundless waves!

Ye Guchen felt a terrifyingly vast divine power pouring forth.

His physical body released light, with golden dao patterns interweaving, emanating an aura of vast creation.

"Could that be the legendary, almost lost Creation Golden Body!?"

Seeing the changes in Ye Guchen's physical body, some knowledgeable prodigies couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Creation Golden Body was an extremely rare supreme body-refining divine technique.

It was rumored that some Buddhist powerhouses used the Creation Golden Body to cultivate immortal physical bodies.

But such a prodigious method had nearly been lost.

Even in Small Western Heaven, one of the Buddhist heritage sites, only partial incomplete transmissions remained.

And now, Ye Guchen had unleashed the complete Creation Golden Body, which was shocking.

"As expected of a reincarnated powerhouse who has awakened his past wisdom, able to recall many lost divine techniques," some prodigies sighed.

These reincarnated prodigious talents had another advantage over others.

They could awaken their past life memories.

Afterward, they could recall various martial arts and divine techniques.

Many were ancient methods that had already been lost, extremely precious.

"Oh, Creation Golden Body?"

Seeing Ye Guchen withstand his punch, Jun Xiaoyao raised his eyebrows slightly.

But this was merely his casual punch.

Boom!

Jun Xiaoyao activated the ten thousand divine elephant particles within his body, releasing even more terrifying power.

Crack!

The bones in Ye Guchen's arm emitted a breaking sound.

With a loud bang, a shocking metallic resonance rang out!

Ye Guchen's Creation Golden Body was instantly broken!
