<h4>Chapter 110: The Heavenly Dao</h4>
A sense of foreboding gripped Ye Guan’s heart the moment his sword dug into the Chosen One’s forehead. He felt cold all over as he let go of his sword and immediately retreated.
Just then, an astral projection emerged from the Chosen One’s body. It was a three-meter-tall projection that resembled the Chosen One’s figure. It was surrounded by rune markings, and the astral projection had stopped Ye Guan’s sword from digging any further into the Chosen One’s forehead.
“An astral body!” Gu Chaoyuan eximed.
An astral body was the manifestation of an astral consciousness. It was born from an Ancient Divine Spell. Gu Chaoyuan was familiar with it because he hade across it in an ancient book stored in the Main Guanxuan Academy.
However, he didn’t expect to see an astral body!
Gu Chaoyuan’s expression turned grim. As expected of the Chosen One!
The Chosen One would be a monstrous top talent even throughout the vast Guanxuan Universe, much less on the Zhongtu Divine Continent. Of course, he wouldn’t be without rivals.
After all, the Guanxuan Universe was so big that it definitely had unimaginable talents of the Chosen One’s caliber.
Ye Guan frowned slightly while staring at the astral projection. He had no idea what he was looking at, but he knew that it was strong. He opened his palms and gathered sword energy in his palm to create another sword.
The Chosen One stared at Ye Guan. He suddenly shouted, “Break!”
The astral projection made a move. A thirty-meter-wide beam of golden light burst out of the astral projection and made a beeline for Ye Guan. It destroyed anything that dared to stand in its path.
Ye Guan’s eyes narrowed sharply. The beam of golden light was so wide that he couldn’t dodge it in time. He was left with no choice but to swing his sword.
sh!
His sword carried with it a deluge of sword force, along with his sword intent.
Boom!
Ye Guan stopped the beam of golden light in its tracks. He flicked his sleeve, and a sword light flew toward the Chosen One. The sword light traveled through space and abruptly reappeared in front of the Chosen One.
Unfortunately for Ye Guan, the astral projection reacted fast and protected the Chosen One with its arms.
Boom!
The sword light disintegrated upon impact. The Chosen One’s eyes narrowed as he stared at Ye Guan.
Ye Guan swung his sword again and destroyed the beam of golden light.
Afterward, Ye Guan looked up, and the two stared at each other fiercely.
Gu Chaoyuan shook his head while looking down at Ye Guan from Mount Guanxuan.
“Ye Guan would be much more powerful with a decent sword.”
Gu Chaoyuan realized that Ye Guan’sck of a decent sword was one of his weaknesses.
Swordsmen had always advocated that a true swordsman could use any object as a sword, but Ye Guan still hadn’t reached that realm.
Ye Guan was struggling against the Chosen One because hecked a decent sword, and it was bing more apparent as time went on.
Thankfully, Ye Guan’s foundation in the sword dao was deep, and his sword intent was powerful. Otherwise, his sword wouldn’t have been capable of threatening the Chosen One enough for him to summon his astral body.
The Chosen One opened his palm, and the ball of fire in front of him flew into his hand. He chanted in an ancientnguage, and the fire burned even fiercer than before.
Ye Guan gripped the sword tightly.
He closed his eyes, and the sword in his hand started trembling from the pressure.
The Chosen One pointed at Ye Guan and shouted, “Go!”
Whoosh!
The ball of fire flew toward Ye Guan at lightning speed, and it grewrger andrger as it flew toward Ye Guan. In the blink of an eye, the thumb-sized ball of fire became a thirty-meter-long fire dragon.
Crackle!
The smoldering mes that it was emitting shattered the air as it made a beeline for Ye Guan. It was determined to devour Ye Guan.
Ye Guan’s eyes flew open. He vanished and reappeared in front of the fire dragon.
Instant Death Strike! Ye Guan’s speed reached its peak.
Slice!
Ye Guan’s sword sliced the fire dragon’s head, but it got stuck for a few moments before Ye Guan put more strength into the sword and forcibly split the fire dragon into two.
However, Ye Guan wasn’t done yet. He vanished and abruptly reappeared in front of the Chosen One.
The Chosen One closed his eyes, and the astral projection wrapped its arms around the former once more.
Boom! The astral projection shook violently as Ye Guan hacked at it with his sword.
Crack!
The onlookers were shocked to see cracks on the astral projection’s arms.
Ye Guan created another sword made out of sword energy before sending a flurry of strikes at the astral projection’s arms.
Roar!
The astral projection roared.
It opened its mouth and sent a beam of golden light toward Ye Guan.
The attack’s timing was impable, as Ye Guan was still recovering from his sword swing.
Boom!
A loud explosion urred, and the onlookers found their ears ringing from the explosion. Ye Guan was sted away, but the astral projection copsed as well.
The resulting explosion also sent the Chosen One flying.
Swoosh!
A dazzling sword light drew a beautiful arc on the tournament square.
The Chosen One’s eyes narrowed, and he hurriedly chanted in an inscrutable, ancientnguage. Mystical and cursed markings appeared in front of him, and they coalesced into a tangible shield that protected him from Ye Guan’s sword.
Boom!
Ye Guan’s sword disintegrated upon impact.
The Chosen One still hadn’t recovered from the impact, but another sword light was already making its way toward him.
Boom!
The sword light struck the shield, and the shield shook violently before it broke apart.
A violent light shed in the Chosen One’s eyes.
A third sword light came flying toward him, prompting him to put his hands together.
A golden divine seal flew toward Ye Guan’s sword light. The divine seal was emzoned with two words—Heaven and Earth!
Ye Guan’s sword light disintegrated upon colliding with the divine seal.
Meanwhile, an auspicious 卍 symbol appeared above Ye Guan’s head.
The Chosen One’s eyes shone in a ferocious light as he shouted, “Heaven and Earth Suppression!”
He swung his right arm downward, and the auspicious 卍?symbol descended to suppress Ye Guan.
Ye Guan looked up at the auspicious 卍?symbol with a grim look. He stomped with his right foot and shot into the sky. He took on a stance in mid-air and squeezed as much sword force and sword intent as he could for his next attack.
Boom!
Ye Guan’s sword pierced the auspicious 卍?symbol, and it erupted into a dazzling kaleidoscope of lights. The explosion sent Ye Guan, but he immediately jumped into the sky the moment his footnded on the ground.
Crack!
The ground caved in as Ye Guan soared into the sky and shed at the golden divine seal. The golden divine seal shook violently and disappeared.
Ye Guan’s figure blurred and reappeared in front of the Chosen One.
However, the Chosen One reacted fast. He gestured with his right arm and vanished.
Swoosh!
Ye Guan’s sword struck nothing but thin air.
Ye Guan spun around and saw the Chosen One standing on top of the golden divine seal, which was also known as the Heaven and Earth Seal.
Ye Guan frowned while staring at the Heaven and Earth Seal.
That seal isn’t just an ordinary spiritual artifact.
The Chosen One stared at Ye Guan and said, “Come at me.”
Ye Guan responded by teleporting in front of the Chosen One through space.
A golden light gushed out of the Heaven and Earth Seal and surrounded the Chosen One.
Boom!
The powerful sword light made the seal shake violently, but it ultimately withstood Ye Guan’s attack. However, Ye Guan wasn’t done just yet. He swung his sword once again, eliciting another explosion on the same level as his earlier attack.
Ye Guan raised his sword once more, but a wave of golden light sent him flying away. Ye Guan gestured with his hand, and a sword light made a beeline for the Chosen One. He refused to give thetter even a single moment to breathe!
The Chosen One’s eyes narrowed, and he shouted, “Defend!”
The Heaven and Earth Seal abruptly turned into a pir of divine light that engulfed him.
Boom!
The sword disintegrated upon impact, but the Chosen One staggered backward. He quickly steadied himself, but he was shocked to find Ye Guan standing in front of him with his sword high up in the air for another attack.
Boom!
The Chosen One was sent flying away.
Slice, sh, chop!
Ye Guan sent a flurry of attacks to overwhelm the Chosen One. By the time he stopped, the pir of divine light that had been protecting the Chosen One had vanished.
Ye Guan immediately moved to take advantage of the opportunity, but his expression abruptly changed. The Chosen One had crushed a talisman, and the talisman’s power flew toward him.
Ye Guan could only defend himself.
Boom!
However, the talisman was so powerful that it sent Ye Guan flying away.
Ye Guan twisted in mid-air andnded gracefully. He briefly examined himself and saw that he was riddled with injuries.
Ye Guan stared deeply at the Chosen One.
“Master Pagoda, this is unfair,” said Ye Guan. “He has so many tools in his arsenal, but I only have the Path Sword.”
Little Pagoda didn’t know what to say.
The Chosen One met Ye Guan’s gaze and said, “It seems that I’ve truly underestimated you.”
Ye Guan seemed to be deeply contemting something as he stared at the Chosen One’s storage ring.
The Chosen One chuckled and said, “It’s about time we end this.”
With that, he looked up and yelled, “Heavenly Dao!”
Rumble!
The skies shook violently, and the onlookers were horrified to see the projection of a huge eye above the clouds.
The Eye of the Heavenly Dao!
The Chosen One took out a pitch-ckmand token and yelled, “The unscrupulous and immoral Ye Guan has reaped the lives of many innocent people. Heavenly Dao, heed mymand, kill Ye Guan for me!”
A booming voice echoed in response. “I hear and obey!”
Themand token exuded a light reminiscent of the Heavenly Dao. A giant array manifested and spurred into action, making themand token shake violently.
Momentster, Ye Guan felt the Heavenly Dao’s aura immobilizing him.
Heavenly Dao Energy! The onlookers were beyond horrified. They truly hadn’t expected that the Chosen One could wield Heavenly Dao Energy.
The Heavenly Dao’s aura locked onto Ye Guan, and the entire world seemed to have be a mere mirage in the face of the Heavenly Dao. Meanwhile, a steady stream of Heaven and Earth Energy was being sucked into themand token.
The Heaven and Earth Energy of the Zhongtu Divine Continent was being converted into Heavenly Dao Energy. The onlookers reckoned that the following attack would decide the oue of the battle.
And the onlookers were already convinced that the Chosen One would win…
After all, could mortals even withstand the Heavenly?Dao’s fury?
Ye Guan wordlessly stared at the Eye of the Heavenly Dao.
Meanwhile, the Chosen One pointed at Ye Guan and shouted, “Prepare to die!”
