Chapter 1689 Fist Intent
The Heavenly Profound Saint King mobilized the cave behind him, which was the Yin-Yang Great Dao, a high-level innate Great Dao, far superior to the Great Daos of Earth, Fire, Water, and Wind.

However, even with the Heavenly Profound Saint King continuously activating the Great Dao and connecting the Yin and Yang Great Daos, he still could not defeat Li Yanchu.

The Dao of Slaughter is even higher than the Dao of Yin and Yang. Li Yanchu achieved immortality by proving his Dao through slaughter, which in itself surpasses ordinary immortality.

He fought against the Heavenly Profound Saint King, who was somewhat unable to defend himself for a time.

He brandished the Yin-Yang Sword, its sharp light striking towards Li Yanchu.

At his level, he could wield divine powers with a mere wave of his hand or a simple step, no longer needing to study spells, thus surpassing ordinary cultivators.

This Yin-Yang sword is also a manifestation of his Great Dao, its cold light piercing people's eyes, extremely fierce.

Li Yanchu then activated the Great Dao of Slaughter within his body, mobilizing the killing power of heaven and earth to fiercely meet the attack.

The two fought fiercely, neither gaining the upper hand, and their battle intensified amidst the chaotic sea of ​​stars.

The true abilities of the Heavenly Profound Saint King were far greater than Li Yanchu had imagined.

His Yin-Yang Dao transformed into a massive vortex, trapping Li Yanchu within it. The Yin and Yang energies relentlessly eroded Li Yanchu's primordial spirit and physical body.

Immediately, Li Yanchu unleashed his martial arts prowess, using both fists and feet, and forcefully blasted himself out of it.

The two of them traveled tens of thousands of miles through the chaotic sea of ​​stars, yet remained evenly matched.

Unable to defeat Li Yanchu, Tianxuan Saint King grew increasingly annoyed. Li Yanchu seized the opportunity and unleashed the Primordial Dao to fight Tianxuan Saint King.

The Primordial Dao is shrouded in purple aura, and along with the Killing Dao, it belongs to one of the highest-level innate Daos.

Heavenly Profound Saint King exclaimed, "All three paths have attained immortality?!"

He was increasingly astonished by Li Yanchu's talent.

This child has extremely high talent. If he is allowed to grow, he is very likely to reach the Dao Lord level. At that time, I am afraid I will perish at his hands.

However, the more anxious he became, the more flaws he made. Li Yanchu seized the opportunity and fiercely attacked Tianxuan Saint King, striking him in the ribs with a palm.

The skin between the waist and abdomen of the Heavenly Profound Saint King exploded with a series of cracking sounds, sending blood and flesh flying everywhere.

He grunted, summoned the Yin-Yang Swords, and transformed them into two sword lights, one black and one white, slashing fiercely at Li Yanchu.

Li Yanchu dodged the Yin-Yang Swords and slashed down with his hand.

Swish!
A purple divine blade cleaved through the Heavenly Profound Saint King's dojo, splitting it in half.

Tianxuan Saint King summoned the Yin-Yang Swords and charged forward, sparks flying everywhere.

Li Yanchu's manifestation of the Great Dao was no match for this immortal magic weapon, and the purple divine blade was shattered.

He was also jolted by the recoil from the blow, causing a tightness in his chest and spitting out blood.

Upon seeing this, the Heavenly Profound Saint King was overjoyed and charged forward again.

But the next moment, Li Yanchu activated the Great Dao of Slaughter, and a sharp blade of light appeared.

The Heavenly Profound Saint King couldn't sense where the sword light came from; he only felt that his Great Dao realm had been severely struck.

This strike severed a portion of his connection to the vast universe.

The Heavenly Profound Saint King was both shocked and furious. He frantically urged his cultivation and mobilized the power of the Daoist sects throughout the vast universe.

At this moment, in the vast universe, the lineage of the Heavenly Mysterious Saint King underwent a tremendous change.

Those cultivators felt their power draining away wildly; each of them floated in the void, mouths agape, as if drowning.
They couldn't mobilize their own power or vital energy; everything within their bodies was constantly being transferred to the Heavenly Profound Saint King.
This was a massive harvest!

At this point, the Heavenly Profound Saint King could no longer afford to worry about anything else. He abandoned the gradual approach of "boiling the frog in warm water" and instead directly and forcefully harvested the spoils.

The more cultivators of the Heavenly Profound Dao Sect there are in the vast universe, the stronger his power becomes.

Li Yanchu's cultivation was far inferior to his, and he gradually became no match for him, suffering many injuries and covered in blood.

Li Yanchu thought to himself, "I need to find a way to break his connection with the Great Thousand Universe, otherwise if this drags on any longer, this pressure alone will crush me."

Li Yanchu's mind raced. He had experienced many bloody battles, and the more critical the moment, the calmer he became.

He searched diligently for flaws in the Heavenly Profound Saint King's Daoist temple, and the Heavenly Eye on his forehead opened, reflecting the void.

Seeing this, the Heavenly Profound Saint King's attacks became even more ferocious.

If Li Yanchu hadn't cultivated the Great Dao of Primordial Chaos, which allowed him to mitigate some fatal injuries, he would probably have been killed long ago.

The difference between whether or not one can reap the entire universe is too great, which is why so many people are keen on reaping it.

If you don't take advantage of others, your strength will be far weaker than theirs, by half a realm or even a whole realm. If you really have to fight, you'll only face certain death.

The Heavenly Profound Saint King's attacks became increasingly ruthless, and Li Yanchu's injuries worsened once again.

He used to be able to heal his injuries with his immortality, but later those injuries became irreparable.

Seeing this, the Heavenly Profound Saint King continued to mobilize his power, even sacrificing cultivators of the Heavenly Profound Daoist lineage throughout the Great Thousand Universe, in order to kill Li Yanchu here.

This incident caused quite a stir, and many other disciples of the Holy Kings throughout the vast universe reported it to the authorities.

Those holy kings were also very surprised.

Who could have driven Tianxuan to this point?

.........

Both sides were currently in a period of exhaustion. Li Yanchu also sensed several powerful figures approaching this place, and even stronger people had their eyes on this area.

Li Yanchu thought to himself, "I'm already locked in a fierce battle with the Heavenly Profound Saint King in the Chaotic Star Sea. If this fight continues and alerts an even more powerful being, it will be even more difficult to escape."

Li Yanchu's mind went blank for a moment, and he was struck hard by the Heavenly Profound Saint King. His ribs broke and cracked, and he spat out some blood mixed with bits of flesh.

Tianxuan Saint King closed in again, and the Yin-Yang Sword struck Li Yanchu, severing one of his arms.

Heavenly Profound Saint King laughed wildly.

Li Yanchu, an ordinary immortal, is no match for him using only Dongyuan; victory is only a matter of time.

Heavenly Profound Saint King smiled and said, "Now show me all the skills you still have!"

Li Yanchu was repeatedly defeated by him, and the power within his Dao of Slaughter gradually dried up.

The repeated brief vacuums disrupted the smooth operation of his cultivation technique, further weakening his ability to contend with the Heavenly Profound Saint King.

boom!
The Heavenly Profound Saint King struck Li Yanchu hard, sending him flying and sinking into the chaotic star sea.

The Chaotic Star Sea is an extremely special place. Li Yanchu was thrown into it and almost submerged, and the power of his Daoist arts was rapidly dissipated.

The Yin-Yang Dao of the Heavenly Profound Saint King struck him hard once again, and the power of the Dao in the Chaotic Star Sea was stirred up, causing Li Yanchu to frown deeply.

Even if he used his Heavenly Eye to try and see the Heavenly Profound Saint King's flaws, the Heavenly Profound Saint King's terrifying power would fill in all the gaps when his divine power actually hit.

Sometimes, he would even deliberately reveal flaws to lure Li Yanchu into a trap, and Li Yanchu's arm was destroyed in one of those momentary tests.

The Heavenly Profound Saint King, having gained power, was relentless and determined to take Li Yanchu's life.

Li Yanchu was also determined to kill Tianxuan Saint King.

The Heavenly Profound Saint King knows the location of the Earthly Immortal Realm. The Earthly Immortal Realm may have already merged with the Human Realm. When the Heavenly Profound Saint King descends, it will be a catastrophe.

He bears the weight of the universe on his shoulders, and he will never back down now.

Seeing that Li Yanchu had not fled, Tianxuan Saint King breathed a sigh of relief. "This boy's choice to fight to the death is the best thing for me. If he had been determined to escape, I might not have been able to stop him with his Hongmeng Dao."

The Heavenly Profound Saint King unleashed the Yin-Yang Sword, piercing fiercely through Li Yanchu's body.

This time, a large hole was torn in Li Yanchu's waist and abdomen, causing his spiritual light to leak out and his aura to rapidly decline.

This also means that if he continues to fight, he will die from exhaustion even if he is not killed by the Heavenly Profound Saint King.

Li Yanchu's third eye on his forehead was also pierced by the sword light of the Heavenly Profound Saint King, leaving it covered in blood.

His third eye was originally an extremely powerful supernatural ability, but now that it has been destroyed, he has lost the ability to sense danger, and his situation is becoming increasingly difficult!

The Heavenly Profound Saint King activated the Yin-Yang Great Dao, transforming it into a massive cauldron. He used one hand to press down on this cauldron, which covered an area of ​​a thousand acres, and then turned it upside down.

Its aura was like that of the king of gods, suppressing Li Yanchu fiercely within it, and the yin and yang energies continuously eroded Li Yanchu's vitality.

Tianxuan Saint King breathed a slight sigh of relief: "Finally, this scoundrel has been suppressed."

At this moment, the Yin and Yang energies were constantly eroding Li Yanchu's life force. Even after Li Yanchu used the Great Dao of Slaughter and Primordial Chaos in succession, he still could not break through the Yin-Yang Cauldron.

He fought a very difficult battle, but he was still no match for the Heavenly Profound Saint King who could reap the rewards of the vast universe.

While enduring the erosion of Yin and Yang energies, Li Yanchu attempted to break through the divine powers of the Heavenly Profound Saint King.

However, the Heavenly Profound Saint King's Yin-Yang Dao was indeed cultivated to an extremely profound level, almost unshakeable.

Li Yanchu's heart stirred, and he stopped observing the flaws in the Heavenly Profound Saint King's technique.

He thought to himself, "His realm is higher than mine, and his cultivation is profound. I want to find his weakness, but I am no match for his powerful cultivation. Since that's the case, I might as well stop looking for his weakness."

Li Yanchu suddenly changed his mind. After activating the Dao of Slaughter, he simply threw a punch.
With a loud clang, the great bell rang, the Yin-Yang Cauldron trembled, and one part of it bulged up.

This startled even the Heavenly Profound Saint King; he certainly didn't want Li Yanchu to escape at this crucial moment.
So he frantically mobilized the power of Taoism throughout the vast universe.

He had already seized seven or eight tenths of the lineage he had passed down over the years, and Tianxuan Saint King no longer cared about that. Since the deed was done, he was going to see it through to the end.

At this moment, he also appeared to be very decisive and ruthless.

Even the martial essence that Li Yanchu had comprehended at this moment could no longer break the Yin-Yang Cauldron.

His movements became slower and slower, and his vital energy gradually depleted.

It would be even more difficult to break this Yin-Yang Cauldron by brute force.

In this desperate situation, he seemed powerless to turn things around.

Suddenly!

Li Yanchu roared, his aura changed, and he burned his blood and qi.

In an instant, Li Yanchu recovered from his state of depleted blood and energy and almost exhausted magic power to his peak.

His long hair fluttered in the wind, and his eyes were like cold lightning. He threw a punch that pierced through the Yin-Yang Cauldron, and fiercely fought his way out.

At that moment, the Heavenly Profound Saint King suddenly pressed down with one hand.

A large, pure white hand appeared in the sky above the chaotic starry sea, surrounded by the power of laws, threatening to crush Li Yanchu to death.

"Fight to the death? If we're going to fight to the death, let's see who's more capable!"

Even the Heavenly Profound Saint King hadn't expected that killing an ordinary immortal would consume seven or eight tenths of the Heavenly Profound Dao Sect's power.

This has damaged his very foundation in the vast universe.

However, his large, white jade hand did not completely crush Li Yanchu.

After burning his blood and qi, Li Yanchu comprehended a new martial arts essence. At this moment, he assumed a fist stance.

"The very concept of Martial Ultimate Truth is flawed; how can the path of martial arts ever have an end?"

At this moment, Li Yanchu's mind was clear and he suddenly had an enlightenment.

The Great Dao is fifty, the Heavenly Evolution is forty-nine.

Only by creating an incomplete path can there be room for progress; he was trapped by himself before!

Li Yanchu pointed out with his finger, and this finger directly pierced through the Yin-Yang Dao Dao, tearing apart the Dao field of the Heavenly Profound Saint King.

Tianxuan Saint King subconsciously raised his hand to block, but his palm was immediately pierced through.

Li Yanchu's finger strike nearly pierced through his brow, but even so, half of Tianxuan Saint King's head was still covered in blood, leaving him in a sorry state.

His gaze sharpened, and he noticed that Li Yanchu's current state seemed somewhat strange.

Gaining insights during battle is a common occurrence in the outer realms.
Beyond this realm, there are countless geniuses; isn't that true of everyone?

But the Dao that Li Yanchu manifested at this moment was a Dao that he had never understood before.

Li Yanchu charged to the front of the Heavenly Profound Saint King, and the two engaged in close combat.

Li Yanchu threw punch after punch, each one carrying an earth-shattering force.

The Heavenly Profound Saint King was startled by his finger strike, causing his cultivation technique to slow down slightly.

Once Li Yanchu unleashed his set of punches, he was forced to defend himself.

Li Yanchu didn't know how many punches he had thrown; his punches could no longer be considered divine powers, but seemed to be just pure force.

Compared to the great divine powers, it's incredibly rudimentary.

Yet this incredibly simple martial arts technique possessed an aura of overwhelming power.

His powerful fist intent was truly awe-inspiring!
Li Yanchu's fist finally managed to sever his neck before the Heavenly Profound Saint King's Yin-Yang Sword could do so.
It struck the Heavenly Mysterious Saint King in the lower abdomen.

The Heavenly Profound Saint King's face turned extremely ugly, and his whole body arched in pain.

He was sent flying backward.

A moment later, the Heavenly Profound Saint King managed to stand up straight.

At this moment, his lower abdomen was shattered and covered in blood, and his injury showed no signs of improvement. This was caused by Li Yanchu's Great Dao.

"This seems to be just an ordinary acquired path, yet it has such power."

Tianxuan Saint King was somewhat surprised.

Li Yanchu attacked again, this time landing a punch squarely on the chest of the Heavenly Profound Saint King.

The Heavenly Profound Saint King's palm struck Li Yanchu's forehead.

Li Yanchu's eyes were bloodshot and dripping with blood.

Tianxuan Saint King felt a terrifying aura explode in his chest, and his body was involuntarily sent flying backward.

The Heavenly Mysterious Saint King was both shocked and furious.
Watching the young man's punches, a bizarre thought suddenly occurred to him.
If this fight continues and he keeps throwing punches, I could very well be beaten to death.

This young man had clearly returned to calm after burning his vital energy; he was at the end of his rope.
Moreover, the injuries were quite severe, with the skin torn open and blood dripping from the wounds all over the body.

Li Yanchu turned his head and spat out a mouthful of blood, saying in a deep voice, "Again!"

This time, the Heavenly Profound Saint King remained silent.
