Silence. A vast and boundless silence filled the heavens and earth.
Chen Xiaoming's ethereal form gradually dissipated as the silver radiance around him withdrew. Down below, the expressions of those on the mountain peak were somewhat strange—especially Dai Mubai and the others. Having already witnessed Tang San's ascension to godhood, they now found themselves at a loss for words as they beheld Chen Xiaoming's divine awakening.
"Teacher Chen is as flamboyant as ever!"
Ma Hongjun muttered after a long pause. Though his voice was soft, everyone present possessed extraordinary cultivation, and they all heard him clearly.
Dai Mubai and the others nodded in agreement, while Tang San merely smiled wryly, choosing to remain silent.
With a brief command to the others, Chen Xiaoming left behind a divine glow before his figure flickered and soared into the sky once more.
"Whew, so this is godly power? No wonder it suppresses soul power!"
Feeling the divine energy surging within him, Chen Xiaoming smiled faintly. He was quite satisfied with his ascension this time. Due to his unique bloodline, he had deliberately avoided using the Azurewood Tree for his divinity, sparing himself from an entire outfit in the color of forgiveness.
Instead, he had ascended using spatial power. Mastering the laws of space allowed him to deepen his comprehension of the Grand Dao of Space.
"Now that I've become a god, let's have a proper battle!"
Chen Xiaoming addressed Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong. Previously, he had suppressed them using his bloodline's power, but now that he had ascended, it was only fitting to fight using divine strength.
With a sharp whoosh, divine power surged within him. With a single step, Chen Xiaoming's figure instantly appeared beside Bibi Dong. His hand thrust forward, wielding the Silver Dragon Spear. A thin, black rift of spatial destruction tore through the sky.
"Hmph!"
Bibi Dong let out a cold snort. Sensing the impending danger, she reacted decisively. With a swift turn of her Violet Scythe, she slashed toward Chen Xiaoming without hesitation.
Clang!
A crisp collision rang out as faint spatial ripples spread in all directions. Divine power surged from Chen Xiaoming's spear, a formidable force exploding from its tip as it clashed against the scythe's blade.
"Watch out!"
Behind Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue ignited the True Flame of the Sun. In a flash, she charged toward Chen Xiaoming, her Golden Flame Greatsword radiating terrifying divine might as it cleaved down toward him.
Above, the blazing sun cast meteoric flames, its scorching radiance cascading toward Chen Xiaoming, attempting to hinder his movements.
Meanwhile, Bibi Dong's Violet Scythe trembled slightly. The sheer force of impact had caused her divine body to waver. However, her eyes gleamed with an eerie purple light as streams of violet-black energy enveloped her.
As the sinister radiance flared, a shocking phenomenon occurred—two identical figures of Bibi Dong appeared in midair. In the blink of an eye, the Rakshasa God Armor fused onto her body, and an overwhelming surge of violet-black divine power erupted forth, shrouding the heavens in darkness.
"Die for me!"
Her two figures merged as the dreadful Rakshasa Devil Scythe flared with ghostly light. The violet-black divine aura engulfed the surrounding space, exuding an all-encompassing malevolence as it surged toward Chen Xiaoming.
Facing the combined assault of Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong, Chen Xiaoming's battle spirit burned fervently. To fight with divine power—what an exhilarating thrill!
"Break for me!"
With a resounding roar, spatial divinity erupted from within Chen Xiaoming. With a mighty swing of the Silver Dragon Spear, a massive golden-silver ring of light materialized.
The moment the light ring appeared, it surged toward Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong. Just before impact, its silver radiance flashed—space collapsed. In that instant, the entire sky shattered like a fractured mirror.
Both Qian Renxue's True Sunfire and Bibi Dong's Evil Aura were instantly devoured by the collapsing space. Their expressions changed drastically, but before they could react, they channeled their divine power once more.
Swish! Swish!
The Rakshasa Devil Scythe and Angel Holy Sword each released divine beams, stabilizing the ruptured space. With a single step, the two women shot through, continuing their assault on Chen Xiaoming.
A sinister violet-black aura surged forth, while eight spectral violet scythes hovered in midair, encircling Chen Xiaoming in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, Qian Renxue merged completely with her Angel Holy Sword, transforming into an enormous golden sword that lunged directly at him.
"Not good! Teacher Chen is in danger!"
Tang San, who had rushed to the scene, watched as Chen Xiaoming was trapped in an inescapable kill zone. His heart trembled, and he immediately surged forward, the Sea God Trident in hand, radiating divine light.
Boom!
As Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong's pincer attack descended, spatial divinity within Chen Xiaoming erupted in full force. Blinding silver light flared, and intense spatial ripples spread wildly in all directions.
The sweeping silver radiance momentarily immobilized Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue. In the next instant, they felt as though the surrounding space had turned into a quagmire—an invisible force had imprisoned them.
Both women were horrified. They exchanged glances, their divine power surging frantically in an attempt to break free. Meanwhile, Chen Xiaoming's figure flickered.
A chilling spear tip gleamed as it thrust toward Bibi Dong. The spatial frost radiating from it sent a shiver of impending death through her heart.
"Not good!"
Bibi Dong frantically mobilized her divine power, striving to break free. Her eyes gleamed with violet-black brilliance as a beam of sinister energy shot straight toward Chen Xiaoming's mind.
The attack, imbued with boundless malevolence, struck instantly. Though Chen Xiaoming's divine consciousness reacted in time, he still hesitated for a brief moment due to the sheer evil intent contained within.
Even with divine protection, whispers of endless grief and resentment echoed in his ears, causing his brows to furrow.
"Watch out!"
At that moment, the strength of his spatial imprisonment weakened slightly. Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong, their divine power burning, instantly regained their freedom.
Tang San, rushing toward them, roared a warning, unleashing Unfixed Storm with his Sea God Trident. Yet, the distance was too great—he couldn't reach in time.
Breaking free, Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong's gazes turned icy, their killing intent surging. The Rakshasa Devil Scythe and Angel Holy Sword cleaved down toward Chen Xiaoming with unrelenting force.
Simultaneously, their divine consciousness bore down upon him. Bibi Dong, in particular, sensed a weakness in his divine mind. Seeing an opportunity, she seized it with ruthless determination.
Tang San's expression filled with urgency, but he was one step too slow. In an instant, the violet-black scythe and golden holy sword were mere meters away from Chen Xiaoming.
Their overwhelming power tore through his silver divine armor, placing him in mortal peril.
Hummm…
Just then, silver light flickered in Chen Xiaoming's eyes. The space behind him rippled, and a phantom identical to himself appeared.
In a single step, he merged with the phantom. The next moment, a radiance of annihilation surfaced in his gaze.
Raising his left hand, divine silver energy enveloped his fist. With a single punch, an invisible shockwave rippled outward, sweeping across the heavens and earth.
"In this world, I am supreme!"
