Li Chen embraced his imperfections, focused his mind, and turned his body into a celestial star, revealing a counterclockwise rotation that slowly spun.

Initially, the spinning was so slow that the naked eye couldn't detect it at all.

However, it quickly accelerated, forming a super tornado that thundered through heaven and earth.

In an instant, the Spiritual Power within hundreds of miles seemed to receive a special summons, converging like rivers into the sea.

The entire sky transformed into a mysterious and enigmatic astral disk.

Comets plummeting towards the moon, heavenly dogs devouring the sun, the sun and moon coexistent, a white rainbow piercing the sun, the seven stars aligning... Various strange celestial phenomena appeared one after another, leaving everyone stunned.

Suddenly, a bottomless black hole emerged unexpectedly, swallowing all these sun, moon, and stars in one gulp, and began to expand bigger and bigger until it exploded.

"Boom!"

The wind swirled, clouds dissipated, lightning flashed, and thunder roared. The void collapsed, and heaven and earth crumbled.

Witnessing such an unfathomable scene, everyone present was stunned.

They all paused their battles, stood on tiptoe, craned their necks, and widened their eyes to watch.

Tian Yazi was shocked, unable to believe that Li Chen, with his mere Golden Core Realm, unleashed such an terrifying strike.

"Sky Transformation!"

This was Penglai Pavilion's cherished treasure and Tian Yazi's signature skill. The fact that he was forced to use his trump card showed he realized the terrifying power of Li Chen's heavenly-defying Divine Skills.

"Boom!"

The void within hundreds of miles collapsed instantly. The entire Tianmang Mountain Range seemed on the verge of collapse. Ancient towering trees in the nearby mountains were uprooted instantly and violently thrown into the sky, before crashing down and causing countless deaths and injuries.

"Splat!"

After a cataclysmic collision, Tian Yazi felt a sudden pain in his chest, and he coughed up a mouthful of fresh blood.

High above, Li Chen felt his vision darken, consciousness fading, and his body plummeting like a heavy stone.

In an instant, the entire scene fell dead silent!

Whether righteous giants, Demon Sect leaders, or Demon Clan's great powers, none could believe their eyes.

The strange astral scene just now was too terrifying!

And bear in mind, Li Chen had just formed his Golden Core.

If his cultivation equaled Tian Yazi's, at the Nascent Soul Late Stage Peak.

When he used such heavenly-defying Divine Skills again, who could imagine the terror of its final power?

Thinking of this, everyone present shivered involuntarily.

Human anxiety and fear stem from the unknown.

Li Chen's existence, for them, was an unpredictable anomaly, unknown even in the entire Cultivation Realm!

At this moment, though Li Chen was near unconsciousness, no one dared step forward—all watched him with fear-filled eyes.

Their shocked gaze resembled earthlings seeing an alien from a UFO, filled with unease and dread.

"Chen!"

Lian Hongshang rushed over immediately upon seeing Li Chen's unconscious state and supported him.

"Roar!"

The Jiao Long, dragging its bleeding body, rushed over and roared menacingly at the surrounding crowd.

Zhao Yuqing, disregarding sect rules, ran over full of sorrow.

Ling Shuanghua didn't move, struggling within, tears shining in her eyes.

Little Demon Immortal, Jian Chen, Heng Mountain Ancestor, and others showed varied expressions.

They all assumed Li Chen had coincidentally attained Emperor Yu's inheritance.

Emperor Yu was the only recorded ascended god in the Cultivation Realm.

If he had received that inheritance, could he break the Life and Death Shackles and ascend to the legendary Elysium?

Thinking of this, everyone's gazes toward Li Chen burned passionately.

Meanwhile, everyone nursed ulterior motives.

To either righteous path, Demon Sect, or Demon Clan, Li Chen was now a priceless Divine Artifact.

Unanimously, the three factions reached a tacit consensus:

With Emperor Yu's inheritance, Li Chen held an earth-shattering mystery; he must not die.

"Shuanghua, you were injured just now; this is the Nine Revolutions Rejuvenation Pill, quickly take it!"

Su Yuru suddenly produced a pill resembling a pigeon egg, crystal clear and radiating immortal red light, giving it to Ling Shuanghua.

Ling Shuanghua was momentarily stunned at the sight of the pill from her mother.

She only suffered minor injuries in the Ascending Dragon Platform struggle, recoverable in a few days even without pills.

And the Nine Revolutions Rejuvenation Pill was a genuine third-grade Divine Medicine, her grandfather's 500th birthday gift from the Medicine Emperor, capable of reviving the dead and reattaching bones.

As long as a person had a breath, it could steal them back from Death God's grip.

This Divine Artifact was extremely rare in the Cultivation Realm. Grandfather refused to consume it and passed it as a dowry to her mother.

She remembered when her father was severely wounded by a sixth-level Peak Demon Beast but insisted on not consuming the divine medicine, claiming it was for saving lives, not to be used except at the death's door.

But now, unexpectedly, it was taken out.

Ling Shuanghua raised her head slightly, her clear eyes meeting her mother Su Yuru's gaze.

Su Yuru forcefully placed the divine medicine in her hand, saying something seemingly inexplicable.

"Shuanghua, you've grown up. Whatever you do, your father and I support you!"

Ling Shuanghua understood her mother's intent, and her eyes immediately brimmed with tears.

She turned to her father, received an encouraging look from Ling Yunlong, who shifted his gaze to the barely alive Li Chen.

Ling Shuanghua placed the pill in her mouth and walked over with light steps.

"Shush!"

Seeing Ling Shuanghua approaching, Lian Hongshang drew the Purple Shadow Immortal Sword, signaling her to stay away.

"Roar!"

The Jiao Long also opened its bloody maw, roaring at her.

"I just want to check on him!"

Ling Shuanghua said unhurriedly, dimples swirling, as immortal light seemed to faintly shine from her lips.

Lian Hongshang was startled, gazing into Ling Shuanghua's eyes, noticing her unflinching look, she lightly patted the Jiao Long's head, signaling it to move aside.

Ling Shuanghua stepped forward, gently leaned down, and stared at Li Chen's profile.

"You bastard, I really owe you from a past life!"

With that, she suddenly leaned down and, under the public eye, lightly kissed Li Chen's lips...
