The Heaven-shattering: I and Wu Shi compete for the throne

Chapter 666 Unexpected Breakthrough Failure?

"Ha!" The ruthless empress's eyes flashed like lightning, her beauty unparalleled. Even with her hair disheveled and her body stained with blood, her charm remained undiminished.

However, at this time her body suffered unimaginable damage. Even with the blood of a quasi-immortal emperor and the imperial pills made from various immortal herbs and fruits, she was still severely injured.

But at this moment, she succeeded, completely merging the sixth secret realm with the five great secret realms, her physical body, and her primordial spirit.

However, just as Li Daoming had predicted, this change was too drastic for her to bear. Her physical body and primordial spirit were disintegrating under the terrifying power of a quasi-immortal emperor, and she was on the verge of exploding, dying and disappearing.

At this moment, an immense power was surging and spreading within her body, almost tearing her to shreds.

Everything about her was annihilated by that supreme quasi-immortal emperor power, revealing a jade body full of cracks, stained with blood, yet incredibly translucent and delicate, with undulating silk threads, graceful and captivating, flowing with immortal radiance.

Moreover, that supreme quasi-immortal emperor power surged forth, destroying the great formation that was already severely damaged due to the ruthless empress's breakthrough, which was operating at its limit and still continuously gathering various powers.

Even Ye Yixian, Ye Yunxian, and Ye Liuxian, who were observing and comprehending the ruthless empress's breakthrough, were affected.

That is to say, they have all broken through to the Emperor Light Immortal King level, and they are not ordinary Emperor Light Immortal Kings.

Otherwise, they might have been severely injured or even died under the impact of this incredibly terrifying quasi-immortal emperor power.

“This…” Outside the dojo of the Ruthless Empress, Li Daoming, who had been calm and composed, instantly lost his previous composure.

His gaze lingered on a jade-like body riddled with cracks and stained with blood, yet possessing a slender, well-proportioned figure with exquisite, graceful curves.

Because he had cultivated with Ye Yixian, Ye Yunxian, and Ye Liuxian countless times, he understood them very well.

Although this jade body was very similar to their delicate bodies, he could still see some differences and could see the unique beauty of the ruthless empress, which made him unable to look away for a moment!

"Boom..." They also sensed the destructive power of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor emanating from the Ruthless Empress's body on the world, and saw Ye Yixian, Ye Yunxian, and Ye Liuxian resisting the Quasi-Immortal Emperor power emanating from the Ruthless Empress's body.

Although Li Daoming couldn't take his eyes off the camera, he didn't lose focus; his mind remained clear, and he continued to pay attention to his surroundings.

Without the slightest hesitation, Li Daoming made his move, instantly protecting Ye Yixian, Ye Yunxian, and Ye Liuxian, and obliterating the quasi-Immortal Emperor power emanating from the Ruthless Empress's body. At the same time, he conjured a magic array to cover the area again.

To prevent this force from harming Ye Yixian and the other two, to prevent this force from destroying the Eighth Heaven, and to prevent outsiders from glimpsing the beautiful scenery presented by the Ruthless Empress's dojo.

"Pfft!" Just then, the Ruthless Empress spat out a mouthful of blood. The power of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor within her body surged violently, and her physical body and primordial spirit were disintegrating at an even faster rate. It seemed that she had failed to forcefully break through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level and was about to die.

In fact, with her accumulated experience and a life-saving Creation Emperor Pill, she should have a very good chance of breaking through to Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

When she broke into the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm, although she was severely injured by the intense internal conflict and the vast power of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor, and her physical body and primordial spirit were constantly disintegrating, she immediately activated the Phoenix Tribulation Regeneration Technique.

The Phoenix Tribulation Rebirth Technique is an unparalleled divine technique she created in the realm of humanity, no weaker than the "Zhe" Secret Technique.

Later, as her cultivation level improved, she comprehended peerless immortal techniques for healing injuries, such as the True Phoenix Nirvana Technique and the Yin-Yang Creation Technique. She then deduced the Phoenix Tribulation Rebirth Technique into an unparalleled immortal king divine technique.

With the aid of the Creation Emperor Pill within her body, she is constantly undergoing rebirth and transformation. It is foreseeable that within a quarter of an hour, she will be able to halt the deterioration of her injuries and temporarily stabilize her Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm.

However, while she was using the Phoenix Tribulation Regeneration Technique, she also spared a sliver of her attention to the outside world.

She naturally wouldn't forget that Ye Yixian and the other two were still in her dojo, and she didn't want the quasi-immortal emperor power emanating from her body to harm them.

In fact, by only diverting a sliver of her mind to control the quasi-immortal emperor power emanating from her body and preventing it from spreading in the direction of the three people, she would not have much of an impact on the ruthless empress, much less cause any problems with her breakthrough.

But to her utter surprise, Li Daoming was protecting her outside her dojo, and the array she had set up was destroyed. Moreover, her clothes were reduced to ashes, and she appeared naked in front of him, staring at her intently.

This sudden turn of events made her somewhat unsettled, and she instinctively used some of her power to conjure a fairy robe to cover her body.

Unexpectedly, this caused a chain reaction. Her mind became unstable, and she even diverted a portion of her power to transform into celestial robes, affecting her Nirvana.

While it wouldn't necessarily cause her to fail in her Nirvana, it made it difficult for her to suppress the conflict between the Sixth Secret Realm and the Five Great Secret Realms, as well as the conflict between her physical body and primordial spirit, and made it difficult for her to restrain the power of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor within her.

The power she separated and transformed into celestial robes was directly destroyed by the even more surging power of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor, and her physical body and primordial spirit were also disintegrating at an even faster rate.

In other words, the Creation Emperor Pill within her body had not yet exhausted its medicinal power, and was continuously restoring her rapidly disintegrating physical body and primordial spirit.

Otherwise, she would fail to break through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm in just a few breaths, and die.

Even so, her condition was very poor, and she showed signs of failing to break through. It was estimated that she would fail to break through in a minute or two.

Now, she has two choices:

First, she could give up on breaking through and expel the vast power of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor within her body, allowing her to fall into the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm on her own. However, there would still be residual Quasi-Immortal Emperor power within her body. If she did not break through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm and did not possess any treasures at the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level, she would likely find it difficult to eradicate the residual Quasi-Immortal Emperor power within her body.

Secondly, one should calm the mind and remain unmoved by the outside world, immersing all one's mind in one's own body, and once again activate the Phoenix Rebirth Technique to undergo Nirvana, suppressing the conflict between the sixth secret realm within the body and the five great secret realms, as well as the physical body and primordial spirit, restraining the quasi-immortal emperor power within the body, and stabilizing the realm.

As long as she concentrates fully and has the help of the Creation Emperor Pill, she is very confident that she can succeed.

Just sensing Li Daoming's still burning gaze on her made her uneasy.

At this critical moment, the ruthless empress didn't have much time to hesitate; in an instant, she made her choice.

She didn't even have the time or energy to send a message to Li Daoming, telling him not to go too far and to look away.

She forced herself to ignore Li Daoming's gaze, calmed her thoughts, regained her composure, stopped paying attention to the outside world, and focused all her attention on her body.

While digesting and absorbing the medicinal power of the Creation Emperor Pill, he also used the Phoenix Rebirth Technique to undergo Nirvana, and devoted all his efforts to stabilizing his own realm.
