Chapter 579: Chapter 579: The Heavenly Rule! Eighty Waves!

"Roar!"

Crown Prince Chong Tian let out a furious roar, as if he had lost his mind.

The sudden outburst startled everyone. What had happened to Crown Prince Chong Tian?

A wave of overwhelming killing intent emanated from Crown Prince Chong Tian, spreading in all directions. The intense aura forced his nearby subordinates to their knees in fear.

"Zhong Shan, come out and face your death!" Chong Tian roared, his figure suddenly appearing in the center of the battlefield, floating in mid-air, staring directly at Zhong Shan.

Crown Prince Chong Tian needed to kill Zhong Shan to quell his rage. Given his immense strength at the Emperor Extreme Realm, how could he possibly struggle against Zhong Shan, who was just a mortal over a century ago?

Killing Zhong Shan was his only focus now.

But Zhong Shan smiled cruelly.

A fight? This was exactly what Zhong Shan had provoked in Crown Prince Chong Tian.

The frenzy in Zhong Shan\'s heart had reached its peak on the way to the Myriad Pill Conference, making it difficult to control. The hatred within him could only be assuaged through killing.

Otherwise, why would someone as composed as Zhong Shan, who usually hid his emotions so well, be seen as abnormal by Gu Qianyou?

Zhong Shan had long wanted to kill, to invade the Taishui Dynasty, and slaughter all its people, especially the royal family. Ultimately, he wanted to personally kill Crown Prince Lietian to avenge Kuier.

But Zhong Shan knew this was an impossible dream at the moment. He lacked the foundation to do so. He couldn\'t afford to kill even a renowned figure of the Taishui Dynasty yet. It was either all or nothing.

Seeing Crown Prince Chong Tian, Zhong Shan couldn\'t help but stir up his inner frenzy.

So, Zhong Shan needed a legitimate excuse for killing, not one based on revenge but another reason entirely.

Thus, Zhong Shan mentioned the alchemical explosions to provoke Crown Prince Chong Tian. This way, their battle would not be a personal vendetta but a clash between two dynasties.

Killing would be justified! It would be righteous!

Crown Prince Chong Tian was enraged, and Zhong Shan saw his opportunity.

Ignoring the ministers\' pleas, Zhong Shan stepped out from the city wall and flew into the sky, facing Crown Prince Chong Tian from a distance.

While the northern battlefield was engulfed in the blood sea, Zhong Shan and Crown Prince Chong Tian faced off in the south.

Seeing Zhong Shan accept the challenge, Crown Prince Chong Tian\'s expression turned cold. With a flip of his hand, a large, menacing saber appeared.

A surge of golden light radiated from Crown Prince Chong Tian, enveloping everything around him. The surrounding energy seemed to respond to his command.

A blazing heat radiated in all directions as Crown Prince Chong Tian stood like a golden sun, emitting an overwhelming aura that pressed down on everything.

An Emperor Extreme Realm expert could influence the surrounding environment, harmonizing with the rules of the heavens and earth. Crown Prince Chong Tian was one such expert.

Zhong Shan showed no fear. With a wave of his hand, he too produced an imposing great blade—Nightmare! The moment Nightmare appeared, a dense, pitch-black aura of malevolence emanated from it.

Although Zhong Shan didn\'t possess the ability to influence the environment like Crown Prince Chong Tian, he exuded an unyielding majesty.

"Hahaha! So, you\'re merely at the Sovereign Extreme Realm, unaware of the rules, ignorant of the celestial phenomena. You\'re dead for sure!" Crown Prince Chong Tian laughed, instantly seeing through Zhong Shan\'s level and feeling a rush of excitement. Like a cat toying with a mouse, he intended to slowly torment Zhong Shan to death.

Narrowing his eyes, Zhong Shan said, "Unaware of the rules, ignorant of celestial phenomena? Are you referring to this?"

With a cold shout from Zhong Shan, thunderclouds quickly formed above his head, rolling ominously.

"Heaven? Heavenly Extreme Realm?" Crown Prince Chong Tian was suddenly taken aback.

"No, that\'s not \'Heaven\'; it\'s \'Heavenly Thunder Transformation,\' a technique from the Palace of Creation. Trying to deceive me, Zhong Shan? You\'re still too inexperienced. Even if you have learned this astonishing technique, without understanding the rules, it\'s useless!" Crown Prince Chong Tian immediately recognized the technique.

"World of Blades!"

With a furious shout, Crown Prince Chong Tian swung his saber. Suddenly, endless golden blade energy appeared in the sky, pouring down like a torrential rain towards Zhong Shan.

Zhong Shan swung Nightmare, unleashing a powerful blade aura to counter.

"Boom!"

The force of Zhong Shan\'s strike sent many of the blade energies back, but he was also pushed back a hundred feet. However, Crown Prince Chong Tian\'s blade energies remained suspended in the air.

Zhong Shan was slightly taken aback. Were those really blade energies?

"My blade energies are indestructible. As long as you live, they won\'t dissipate! But you are no ordinary foe. My blade energies are not something a Sovereign Extreme Realm expert can withstand, yet you repelled them with one strike? You won\'t be so lucky again," Crown Prince Chong Tian laughed.

Zhong Shan felt a tightness in his chest. He knew the weight of his previous strike. To say the least, even a novice Emperor Extreme Realm expert might not withstand it. That strike was Zhong Shan\'s own creation, the Heavenly Rule! Heavy Waves!

Heavenly Rule, Twenty Heavy Waves!

This was Zhong Shan\'s maximum strength under normal circumstances, capable of matching a novice Emperor Extreme Realm expert. Yet, it only repelled the blade energies?

Zhong Shan\'s heart tightened. Crown Prince Chong Tian was definitely at the late stage of the Emperor Extreme Realm, and his blade energies were bizarrely persistent.

As the second wave of endless blade energies poured down, Zhong Shan\'s eyes turned cold.

A subtle rotation of the pink lotus at his brow channeled energy into his eyes.

Red Luan Heavenly Scripture, Sixth Layer! The Beginning of True Sight!

Suddenly, Zhong Shan\'s vision fragmented, revealing countless lines of rules. Zhong Shan had long discovered that the Beginning of True Sight revealed more than just lightning-based rules.

Previously, its subtle functions had been mistaken by Gu Shentong. Now, Zhong Shan saw a multitude of rule lines, not confined to any single element, but seemingly encompassing them all.

Moreover, the clarity of these lines improved with Zhong Shan\'s increasing strength, no longer flickering but appearing distinctly.

"Eight Heaven Waves!" Zhong Shan bellowed, his eyes gleaming with newfound insight.

With precise control, Zhong Shan harnessed the visible rules. The chaotic battlefield faded as he focused solely on the incoming blade energies, each rule line enhancing his understanding.

"Boom!"

Zhong Shan\'s Nightmare blade cut through the onslaught with surgical precision, neutralizing the blade energies. Each strike now carried a deeper resonance, aligned with the rules he could see.

Crown Prince Chong Tian\'s expression shifted from confident to perplexed. "Impossible! How can you wield such power?"

Unfazed, Zhong Shan pressed the advantage, his strikes growing sharper and more refined, guided by the rules he now clearly perceived. The battlefield around them quaked under the sheer force of their clash, with Zhong Shan turning the tide against the formidable Crown Prince.

The world, like a spiderweb, appeared incredibly eerie yet remarkably clear to Zhong Shan.

In the distance, Crown Prince Chong Tian, with his Emperor Extreme Realm abilities, was interconnected with countless surrounding rules. The endless blade energies were linked to these rule lines, under his control, explaining their persistent presence.

Zhong Shan\'s unique ability to perceive these rule lines was something even an Emperor Extreme Realm expert like Crown Prince Chong Tian could not fathom. While Chong Tian could sense and control the rules to manipulate the blade energies, his understanding was superficial compared to Zhong Shan\'s precise vision.

As the blade energies poured down from the sky, Zhong Shan stepped forward. With a strike of his Heavenly Rule technique—Twenty Heavy Waves—he slashed towards Crown Prince Chong Tian.

"Boom!"

With a tremendous explosion, Zhong Shan\'s strike scattered Crown Prince Chong Tian\'s blade energies. The Crown Prince\'s face showed utter disbelief. How could this be? Yet, it was true. Zhong Shan\'s strike had severed the rule lines controlling the blade energies, dispersing them entirely.

"It seems I\'ve underestimated you," Crown Prince Chong Tian sneered.

Ignoring the dispersed blade energies, Chong Tian flipped his hand and slashed fiercely at Zhong Shan. A hundred-foot-long blade aura, filled with unmatched power, rushed straight towards Zhong Shan.

Recognizing the pure force of an Emperor Extreme Realm attack, Zhong Shan responded with his own.

Heavenly Rule! Twenty Heavy Waves!

Zhong Shan\'s strike met Chong Tian\'s in mid-air.

"Boom!"

Zhong Shan was driven into the ground, creating a massive crater and a trench hundreds of feet long. Despite his powerful technique, his Twenty Heavy Waves were still no match for Chong Tian\'s overwhelming strength.

Emerging from the crater, dust covering his clothes, Zhong Shan\'s eyes turned icy.

Demonic Tempering Body Technique! Fourth Layer!

Heavenly Rule! Forty Heavy Waves!

With renewed vigor, Zhong Shan slashed again.

"Boom!"

Still not enough!

Heavenly Rule! Sixty Heavy Waves!

Zhong Shan struck once more. The intense battle shook the air, filling the surroundings with an overwhelming presence of blade energy.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Despite his formidable attacks, even the Sixty Heavy Waves seemed to leave him at a disadvantage.

Crown Prince Chong Tian was utterly shocked. With each clash, instead of weakening, Zhong Shan appeared to grow stronger. What kind of monster was this?

Feeling his inner fury surge, Zhong Shan\'s eyes reddened as memories of past grudges resurfaced. With a fierce determination, he unleashed his ultimate attack.

Heavenly Rule! Eighty Heavy Waves!
