Chapter 553 Chapter 553 – Twilight
“It has started…” Chen Heng muttered to himself. His expression did not change much.
The Twilight Knight’s palm struck straight at Chen Heng’s chest. The power exerted was extremely terrifying, as if stars had collided, bringing with it an extremely powerful impact. Then, his figure disappeared and came to another region.
The mighty power shook the entire divine land, affecting the surroundings. If it were not for the runes that the Five Knights had engraved in this divine land, just the aftermath of this palm strike would be enough to shatter this entire area, leaving no trace behind.
Chen Heng’s figure disappeared from where he was standing and soared into the sky. In his eyes, the galaxy shattered, and the stars fell. It seemed like a vast mystery was being unfolded, shrouding the entire area to resist the invisible force.
Boom!
In the galaxy, the two powerful auras collided and started to fight. The rumbling war drums continued to sound. In the distance, the vast twilight domain completely shrouded the area before them.
For a moment, the nearby star areas were shaking. They could all feel that terrifying aura, whether it was the nearby or the distant star areas that were countless miles away.
It was the true king’s power. According to this world’s standards, a sixth rank powerhouse could destroy the stars. If such a powerhouse used his full strength, it was enough to destroy the stars and all lives on them.
Like the Five Knights, the outstanding ones were at the peak of the sixth rank. They could destroy an entire star with a single thought, vanis.h.i.+ng everything. The destructive power would be unimaginable once they used their full strength.
As for the seventh rank kings, their auras could shroud the entire galaxy the moment they went all out, destroying countless stars with a single thought. Besides those at the peak of the sixth rank realm, the rest would not even have the chance to stand before them.
A battle between two kings was rare and impossible to witness. Any such battle would be recorded in the annals of history and be admired by countless people in the ancient era.
This terrifying battle, known as the Battle of Legends, had begun. A sound that sounded like thunder was heard in the galaxy, and it couldn’t be stopped at all. An enormous and mighty aura shot straight into the sky as if it wanted to bombard this entire starfield. Two king-level existences charged out in just an instant, destroying several stars nearby. Terrifying explosions continuously sounded out, and the energy reaction was highly grand, like the most beautiful fireworks, looking exceptionally resplendent.
Bang!
A series of sounds sounded, and Chen Heng’s figure appeared the next moment, facing the Twilight Knight. Both of them looked miserable when they appeared again. Their clothes were torn, and their auras weren’t as calm as before but were fluctuating instead.
From the looks of it, both of them were very powerful. They were evenly matched to a certain extent.
“What a powerful power…” Chen Heng’s face was solemn. He looked at his opponent seriously. “That kind of mystery, is it withering?” “Your body isn’t bad either…” The Twilight Knight’s face was also solemn. He knew how hard it was to deal with Chen Heng, “Did you practice some secret skills? Why is your body strength so terrifying…”
He had struck Chen Heng more than once, leaving behind traces on his body. His attacks were extremely shocking, and the destructive power was extreme. If he had indeed struck, even a king would not be able to escape, and it would leave behind an unforgettable injury.
ev
However, this terrifying power seemed to have lost its effect when it struck Chen Heng’s body. Chen Heng’s body’s defense was too terrifying. His defense was the most solid substance in the galaxy, much stronger than those people that the Twilight Knight had seen before.
When that fatal attack struck his body, it seemed only to leave a wound, and nothing had happened. Even during the battle, the wounds on Chen Heng’s body were still healing on their own. That kind of speed was very astonis.h.i.+ng. The Twilight Knight seemed much weaker than Chen Heng’s insane recovery rate. Anyhow, he had not suffered any severe injuries and had still been suppressing Chen Heng all along. However, Chen Heng still appeared to have a powerful aura, as if he was unharmed. That aura was so powerful that it made people tremble as if nothing had changed after such a long time.
The Twilight Knight was different compared to him. His face had turned pale in just a moment, and there was no trace of blood on his face. He seemed much more terrifying than before.
“Your path…” Chen Heng frowned at the Twilight Knight’s appearance and felt something different, “He has become like this in just a short while?”.
Chen Heng was somewhat mentally prepared for the Twilight Knight’s transformation. His opponent’s path had gone wrong, and he had made a mistake in the most crucial transformation, causing his vitality to disappear at an abnormally rapid speed.
However, this speed was too fast no matter what. For a king-level existence, unless there was a considerable difference in level, it was impossible to determine the victor in a short period, let alone suppress the other person. If a battle at this level weren’t good, it would probably last longer. From the scattered records in the past, even a confrontation for several years was a common occurrence. However, how much time had pa.s.sed between Chen Heng and the Twilight Knight?
mon
It hadn’t even been a day until now, and the Twilight Knight had already become such. The changes were quite astonis.h.i.+ng.
“Cough…” The Twilight Knight could not help but cough a few times. His face seemed to have become a little old in such a short period, “Sorry for making a fool of myself…” He raised his head and looked at Chen Heng, “Go on.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he charged out once again. An astonis.h.i.+ng majesty erupted. The king’s power swept out in all directions, shaking the void s.p.a.ce and piercing through the galaxy. On the vast divine land in the distance, Lu Yao raised her head, wanting to see the situation on the battlefield clearly, but all she could see was a big skinny hand sweeping out and holding all four galaxies in its hands. Lu Yao could not help but frown, looking at this scene, and subconsciously felt something was wrong.
The Golden Mark on her forehead had already awakened by itself and was wholly activated at this critical moment. It helped Lu Yao peek at the battlefield before her, allowing her to see it more clearly.
Bang!
An earth-shattering sound shrouded the surroundings. The entire world seemed to have fallen into destruction and began to self-destruct.
In the end, a long azure sword slashed on a star and collided head-on with another skinny but unstoppable palm. Bang! Huge destruction! Huge chaos!
Everything in the surroundings perished. Only two powerful auras remained at this moment, shrouding the surroundings and sweeping through everything.
Lu Yao widened her eyes and tried her best to look forward, sensing the scene before her. She could only barely catch a glimpse of a figure. It was a young man whose entire body was bathed in blood. Crimson blood carrying divine light splattered everywhere.
He held the long azure sword as his body retreated as if he had fallen into a disadvantageous position in the battle.
“Has brother fallen into a disadvantageous position?” Lu Yao thought, and her eyes widened looking at the scene, and she became even more focused as she watched.
“Your strength is rising?” Another strike struck. A terrifying explosive sound sounded, destroying everything.
Chen Heng couldn’t help but frown as he stood in the corner of the galaxy, looking at the Twilight Knight’s figure. He felt that something was wrong at this moment.
The Twilight Knight’s appearance has been changing from the beginning until now. From the initial appearance of the white-haired young man, he had gradually changed, and now, he had become a middle-aged man. There were more wrinkles on his face and some inexplicable changes in the texture. There was also apathy on his body as if he had entered his old age.
However, compared to all of this, what was more worth paying attention to was the aura on his body. It did not weaken with the aging of his appearance, but it became stronger. “Twilight is indeed short, and it will disappear instantly. However, it is the most resplendent moment before it disappears…” As if sensing Chen Heng’s doubt, the Twilight Knight explained softly. “I see.” Chen Heng nodded and came to a sudden realization.
“My life Is burning and could come to an end. However, the more this is the case, the stronger my strength will be.” The Twilight Knight said indifferently, “Next, watch out…” A m.u.f.fled sound that shook the sky erupted as soon as he spoke. A powerful aura shrouded the surroundings. It was so powerful that it had reached another dimension, causing Chen Heng to frown. The Twilight Knight attacked once again, which was different from before.
Chen Heng had already used all of his strength to fight against the Twilight Knight. However, he was still being suppressed, firmly at a disadvantage. This was an incredible thing for Chen Heng. It wasn’t that Chen Heng hadn’t come into contact with a king’s power before, so he could roughly understand what kind of level it was.
Chen Heng’s strength was no different from a real king’s, so it shouldn’t be further from Chen Heng’s expectations. However, now, he was still being suppressed by the Twilight Knight and didn’t have the strength to fight back.
To a certain extent, this proved a fact. The Twilight Knight’s strength had already surpa.s.sed the ordinary king’s level and reached a higher level. Of course, this didn’t mean that the Twilight Knight was more powerful than the other kings.
He achieved his current battle strength not because of his strength but because of his path. In terms of his path, the closer he was to withering, the more powerful he was. The fact that the Twilight Knight was able to display such strength at this moment, to a certain extent, also meant one thing. He was already dying At this time, if Chen Heng simply wanted to win, the wisest choice would be to leave immediately. After some time, time would automatically kill the Twilight Knight without Chen Heng having to make a move. The life in his body could not hold on for much longer. However, Chen Heng had not thought about this choice.
The virtual shadow of the galaxy appeared in the sky, shrouding above the vast shards of the secret realm. A mysterious aura appeared. A force shrouded the surroundings at a particular moment, rumbling forward.
A long azure sword appeared. Chen Heng appeared in the eyes of the surrounding people. He held the long azure sword, and his aura was mighty. His entire body was bathed in blood as he charged forward like a crazy demon.
Magic power, life energy, telekinetic power…
Various powers gathered together and charged forward under Chen Heng’s control.
The galaxy exploded!
The illusory galaxy that had initially evolved suddenly froze and then exploded in the air.
Bang!
A terrifying explosion burst out in the galaxy. Streams of divine light surged forward as if a new world had been born. The chaotic scene at the beginning of the world appeared.
At the center of the explosion, the battle between Chen Heng and the Twilight Knight was still beginning. Facing Chen Heng’s full-powered attack, even the Twilight Knight could not help but turn solemn. However, he did not retreat. Instead, his body continued to move forward, directly charging ahead.
Bang!
A terrifying power charged toward the Twilight Knight, so horrifying that it could easily break every star blocking its way. Such a terrifying power struck the Twilight Knight’s body, but it didn’t leave any marks on his body. It couldn’t even stop him from advancing.
The Twilight Knight let out a wild laugh, looking as if he had gone mad, and he directly crashed into the endpoint of the explosion. Then, a terrifying power erupted.
Chen Heng’s expression changed, looking disbelieved. As the Twilight Knight charged forward, the attack he had unleashed with all his strength was blocked and even forcefully pushed back.
“How is this possible?” He was stunned, and he subconsciously didn’t believe it.
The Twilight Knight’s figure charged forward, accompanied by waves of wild laughter. He withstood the force and rushed forward, but his body also changed. He became much older.
Time suddenly sped up, pa.s.sing by the Twilight Knight’s body. He quickly changed from his original middle-aged appearance to an older man and continued to age until he became a dried corpse.
However, the terrifying aura on his body was reaching a peak. The power was so mighty that Chen Heng felt it was particularly alarming. Chen Heng had seen many powerhouses in the past, but they were nothing compared to the Twilight Knight at this moment.
