Chapter 1302: Not Using the Heaven-Opening Sword
The surrounding aura began to dissipate. The Chaos Beast, realizing it couldn't defeat Wang Ye, intended to leave Spirit Star directly.
However, the Power of the Great Dao of Time enveloped the Chaos Beast, infinitely shortening the time it needed to dissipate its aura.
In fact.
Where it originally needed just a second to dissipate some aura, now under Wang Ye's control, it took a full hour to slightly disperse a little.
Wang Ye looked at the Chaos Beast with cold eyes and spoke to it: "Did you really think that in Spirit Star, you could come and go as you please?"
Wang Ye needed to do nothing else but use the Power of the Great Dao of Time to continually trap the Chaos Beast, preventing it from leaving.
The Chaos Beast felt its aura unable to dissipate, and its beast eyes were filled with a sense of despair. Staring at Wang Ye, it said in a pleading tone:
"No! You can't kill me. Currently, almost none of the Spirit Star people have gone to the chaos. Do you know what's happening there?"
"For example, your Spirit Star's Guo Yi has already left for the chaos a long time ago. But now, if there's trouble here, Guo Yi would certainly rush over upon noticing it. Yet, Guo Yi hasn't come, aren't you curious about why he hasn't returned?"
The Chaos Beast spoke to Wang Ye.
Fight, it couldn't win against Wang Ye, so it could only try to get Wang Ye to spare it through some means.
"Guo Yi, Lord of the Universe."
Wang Ye paused slightly.
Even the Power of the Great Dao of Time that enveloped the Chaos Beast had a momentary cessation during Wang Ye's daze.
The next second.
Wang Ye's Heaven-Opening Sword directly pierced toward the Chaos Beast, creating a huge blood mark on its front.
The Chaos Beast's formidable body was utterly ineffective against Wang Ye's attack.
The Chaos Beast looked at Wang Ye in terror. It hadn't anticipated that even after mentioning Guo Yi, Wang Ye wouldn't halt.
"So what if we haven't stepped out of the chaos? Now, I have advanced to the Imperial Lord Realm, so I can exit the chaos and observe."
"The information I got from your mouth, is it really true? If you deliberately told me something wrong, and I am unfamiliar with the chaos, maybe I'd end up worse off, better that I explore by myself!"
Wang Ye's thoughts were very clear.
The fearful expression on the Chaos Beast's face gradually turned to despair with Wang Ye's words.
It was indeed thinking this way.
And this was essentially its last stratagem.
Of course, it was also its last trump card.
It had no way to resolve Wang Ye, nor could it return to the chaos now.
And Wang Ye's strength, under the augmentation of destiny and the oppression by the same, caused it to exert much less strength in Spirit Star, thereby completely suppressed by Wang Ye.
Overpowered.
At this moment, a bit of regret filled the Chaos Beast's heart.
Why did it have to come in?
If it had waited outside, once Wang Ye set out from Spirit Star to chaos, it might have directly ambushed Wang Ye, plus in chaos, it would have the advantage to directly resolve Wang Ye.
But now.
It was all too late.
"I am willing to..."
The Chaos Beast wanted to continue speaking, but Wang Ye no longer wished to listen, preparing to use the Heaven-Opening Sword again. Instead, Wang Ye smiled and said:
"How about this, I won't even use the Heaven-Opening Sword. I'll fight using just my bodily strength. If you can win, you can live."
This battle was meant for Wang Ye's tempering.
Earlier, although Wang Ye easily dealt with the Chaos Beast, a large part was due to the augmentation of the Heaven-Opening Sword.
The Heaven-Opening Sword was the weapon used by Guo Yi from the initial phase up to the Imperial Lord Realm, all the way to the opening of the heavens.
So, even though Wang Ye didn't fully utilize the aura layering within the Heaven-Opening Sword, the faith left by Guo Yi alone allowed Wang Ye to unleash immensely powerful force when using it.
This, contrary to Wang Ye's intention of tempering his strength, served as a counter-effect.
Therefore, Wang Ye now decided to discard the Heaven-Opening Sword, continuing the fight with the Chaos Beast, achieving a better effect.
Next, Wang Ye would gradually lower his stakes, slowly fighting the Chaos Beast.
Initially, grasping all his stakes tightly was out of concerns about not being able to defeat the Chaos Beast.
Regarding self-tempering, the priority was to guard Spirit Star and Earth Star first.
But now, with the Chaos Beast posing no threat, Wang Ye began lowering his stakes step by step as he dealt with the Chaos Beast.
"Not using the Heaven-Opening Sword?"
The Chaos Beast showed a hint of a smile upon hearing Wang Ye's words.
To be honest, during the combat with Wang Ye, what the Chaos Beast found most threatening was Wang Ye's Heaven-Opening Sword.
But as for Wang Ye himself.
Even though Wang Ye merged with Wang Yifeng and Shi Heng and gained heaven's support, he was still only at the mid-phase of the First-Ranked Emperor.
Hardly a great threat.
"Alright."
The Chaos Beast readily agreed.
After agreeing, it nervously glanced at Wang Ye, fearing Wang Ye might suddenly bring out the Heaven-Opening Sword if unable to win and strike it down, which would not be fun.
It gruffly said to Wang Ye:
"Then let's sign the Great Dao Covenant now. During our fight, you can't use the Heaven-Opening Sword. If you do, you will face the attack of the First-Ranked Heavenly Tribulation!"
"Okay."
Wang Ye agreed without hesitation.
His original intention was to temper himself.
If he resorted to using the Heaven-Opening Sword due to not being able to win, it would not achieve his purpose of self-tempering.
Moreover.
Even if he was indeed no match for the Chaos Beast.
He could forcibly reverse time using the Power of the Great Dao of Time, returning to before the Great Dao Covenant was signed.
