Chapter 2124: Defying Heaven's Rise

"Crack... crack, crack."

A sound of shattering came from the void above, and the giant sword condensed by Ye Yuan began to crack.

Fine lines spread from the Sword of Will.

The combined will and pressure of the two Supreme Heavenly Emperors was ultimately too strong.

"Heh heh! See if you don't die! Even if you've condensed a Sword of Will, what of it? Even if your will is higher than the heavens, how can you simultaneously contend with two supreme powerhouses?" Zixu Heavenly Emperor sneered, watching the Sword of Will on the verge of collapse.

The giant cauldron and giant palm continued to descend, the Sword of Will barely holding back these two overwhelming wills.

But it seemed it wouldn't hold out much longer.

"Alas, in the end, it's a move short!"

"In this Tongtian Realm, how many dare to simultaneously confront the wills of these two powerhouses?"

"What a pity, a figure of such unparalleled talent as the sub-sage!"

...

From outside the board came a chorus of lament, all mourning for Ye Yuan, this soon-to-fall genius.

Yet, amid the sighs, Ye Yuan raised his palm to the sky, and another astonishing will erupted violently.

"With my dragon soul, I stabilize the cosmos! Condense!"

Ye Yuan roared in anger, his robes rustling in the fierce wind.

Then, a dragon soul will, no less than the Sword of Will, soared into the sky.

Roar!

The azure dragon let out an unwilling roar—a roar rejecting fate, a roar unafraid of strength, a roar refusing mediocrity.

The giant dragon soared upward, meeting the giant palm head-on.

Boom!

Giant sword against giant cauldron, giant dragon against giant palm.

To the astonishment of all, the giant cauldron and giant palm actually halted their descent.

Four powerful forms of will now faced off in the air.

The immense tremor made the entire world shake.

Winds raged, heaven and earth collapsed.

The troops on the battlefield were directly shattered, reduced to nothing by the overwhelming pressure of these four wills.

"Th-this... this is a true dragon's will! How does he possess such pure and powerful true dragon will? This willpower has likely reached the level of our ancestor!"

Long Zhi stared at Ye Yuan in the board, his eyes nearly popping out.

He hadn't been this shocked when Ye Yuan used dragon bloodline or the Dragon God's Voice earlier.

But the true dragon's will was different!

Will resides in the soul; Ye Yuan's ability to unleash true dragon will meant he possessed a pure dragon soul!

In other words, was Ye Yuan a thoroughbred dragon?

And this true dragon will could stand up to the giant palm of the Holy Ancestor High Priest—what kind of existence was that?

Ye Yuan's true dragon bloodline was even purer and stronger than that of most dragons!

Beside him, Long Xiaochun also widened her eyes, staring at Ye Yuan in disbelief.

She had woken up not long ago.

Her mouth agape, she said incredulously, "Ye Yuan's true dragon will is even stronger than mine—unbelievable!"

But it wasn't over yet.

Ye Yuan raised his palm, and another astonishing will soared into the sky.

This time, it was a giant qilin!

The Qilin Emperor's Bone!

Ye Yuan didn't know what kind of powerhouse the Qilin Emperor's Bone had been in life, but having died for countless ages, it could still suppress a Heavenly Emperor with its bloodline power—even if not equal to the Medicine Ancestor and the Holy Ancestor High Priest, it was likely not far off.

If so, how could the residual will in the emperor's bone be ordinary?

Sure enough, a giant qilin soared up and charged toward the giant cauldron and giant palm.

Boom!

Heaven and earth shook once more!

The addition of the qilin will caused a dramatic reversal in the battle.

The giant cauldron and giant palm were actually pushed back by the three wills!

The Sword of Will, the true dragon will, and the qilin will—three overwhelming wills—drove the giant cauldron and giant palm upward, straight into the clouds!

Everyone's mouths hung open, unable to believe what they were seeing.

"Th-this... how is this possible? Ye Yuan, with his single will, defeated the wills of two Supreme Heavenly Emperors?"

"What kind of freak is this guy!"

"He's only at the True God realm! When he reaches the Heavenly Emperor realm, what a terrifying existence he'll be!"

...

The scene before them was too shocking; everyone was dumbfounded.

Before this, no one could have imagined that a True God realm cultivator's willpower could contend with two Supreme Heavenly Emperors.

Those two were the strongest beings in this world!

With no Dao Ancestor appearing, the two of them were virtually invincible.

Even if Ye Yuan defied heaven and condensed a Sword of Will, contending with one would have been his limit.

But who could have guessed that Ye Yuan would suddenly condense three forms of will, driving the two powerhouses' will forms back into the sky!

"Ah...!"

Ye Yuan's roar continued unabated.

Filled with defiance and a thirst for strength, the three will forms accelerated faster and faster, flying straight into the heavens.

Boom!

A thunderous crash echoed, and the entire chessboard world trembled violently.

The sky was torn open, leaving a hole!

Outside the board, there was dead silence. Even Ji Mo stood with his mouth agape, unable to close it for a long time.

This scene was simply too震撼.

Before this, he had already estimated Ye Yuan as highly as possible.

But how could he have imagined that Ye Yuan was such a monstrous prodigy?

Sword of Will!

True Dragon Will!

Qilin Will!

Each of these was extremely rare.

Yet all three wills appeared simultaneously in Ye Yuan.

Simply unimaginable!

A bitter smile flickered at the corner of his mouth. "Master, what kind of terrifying opponent have you found? In the future, when he rises, will you really be his match?"

Although this was within the Mo Wen Chessboard and not a true contest of strength, the potential and power Ye Yuan displayed were awe-inspiring.

This was a special battlefield; to some extent, Ye Yuan had already defeated the combined forces of the Medicine Ancestor and the Holy Ancestor High Priest.

Such an achievement was enough to shock the world.

The more one reached his level, the more one could feel the importance of martial will to a warrior.

As Ye Yuan had said, without a strong heart, how could one ascend to the pinnacle and look down upon the world?

Zixu Heavenly Emperor was dumbfounded, muttering, "Th-this... how is this possible? How is this possible! A mere True God realm cultivator's willpower can actually defeat the combined strike of the Medicine Ancestor and the Holy Ancestor! Those two are peerless powerhouses beyond the third decline!"

Originally, he had already envisioned Ye Yuan being crushed into fragments by the two wills.

But who knew that suddenly, Ye Yuan would defy heaven and rise, his will soaring, shattering the combined attack of the two peerless powerhouses.

He even shattered the world they had manifested.

Such an outcome was beyond their imagination.

Too terrifying!

Boom!

At that moment, the world within the chessboard shattered with a crash.

Two enormous projections were cast between heaven and earth.

People finally saw the true forms of the Medicine Ancestor and the Holy Ancestor High Priest.

Though not clearly, they truly saw them.

Originally, they had been hidden deep within the chessboard, impossible to glimpse.

But now, Ye Yuan had shattered the world, bringing them back into the light!
