The Strongest Mythical Emperor
Chapter 494: Heavenly Peak

Chapter 494: Chapter 494: Heavenly Peak

Many people stopped in their tracks when they saw Qin Jun charging towards the Lil’ Devil Monarch.

This included Jin Wuhui, Xuan Qing, and other top talents. Both Qin Jun and the Lil’ Devil Monarch were the strongest geniuses of this Heavenly Convention. Dongfang Ji, who had once stood shoulder to shoulder with them, had met a tragic end at the hands of Qin Jun, which elevated the status of the Holy Emperor of Qin in their hearts even more.

They all wanted to witness the battle between the two extraordinary monsters.

Qin Jun, wielding the Seven Star Sword with a stern face, flew in front of the Lil’ Devil Monarch and thrust his sword, its cold light flashing so quickly it was hard for the eyes to follow.

The Lil’ Devil Monarch’s pupils contracted, and he hurriedly retreated while raising his blue crystal long knife to block the sword.

Clang!

The Seven Star Sword struck the blade, and in that instant, the Lil’ Devil Monarch clearly felt the terror of Qin Jun’s strength, bending his right arm under the pressure.

"Damn it! Is this guy endowed with some ancient exotic bloodline? His strength is ridiculously excessive!"

The Lil’ Devil Monarch’s complexion changed slightly, cursing in his heart. Although he had also trained his body and his strength was stronger than that of an average cultivator of the same realm, it was nothing compared to Qin Jun.

With the help of the indestructible holy body and the ancient breathing techniques, Qin Jun’s strength was growing a little every day. Accumulated over time, it was also quite terrifying.

Qin Jun began to swing his sword rapidly, creating continuous sword shadows that dazzled the eyes. The Lil’ Devil Monarch’s reaction speed was not slower than his, the clashing of swords and knives so fast it was dizzying, making it impossible to see the trajectories of their swinging arms.

The two continued to duel fiercely while darting around in the canyon, not a soul dared to interfere in their path, even retreating like avoiding the god of plague.

"You are indeed very strong, but unfortunately, you have encountered me!"

Qin Jun sneered, unleashing dragon energy while multitasking. The dragon energy, along with the Seven Star Sword, launched a simultaneous attack from above and below, catching the Lil’ Devil Monarch off guard.

Provoked by Qin Jun, the Lil’ Devil Monarch’s face showed a look of anger. He suddenly flung his limbs open, and a powerful burst of demonic energy exploded, forcing Qin Jun to pause for a moment. Then, the Lil’ Devil Monarch swiftly swung his knife towards Qin Jun.

With one slash, countless blue crystals flew out, their momentum immense, like a flood sweeping over, as if to obscure the entire canyon, all razor-sharp.

Qin Jun, with no time to raise his sword, opened his mouth and spat out Samadhi Real Fire. The rolling flames immediately submerged the innumerable blue crystals.

The Lil’ Devil Monarch’s complexion changed slightly; he had a psychological shadow regarding the Samadhi Real Fire. After all, Dongfang Ji had met a terrible death in these flames.

He had encountered Dongfang Ji before the Heavenly Convention, and the two had sparred many times, each walking away with their fair share of victories, evenly matched.

Since Dongfang Ji had perished in the Samadhi Real Fire, he did not believe that he would survive it either, so he had to avoid the Samadhi Real Fire at all costs.

Whoosh—

The Lil’ Devil Monarch had just leaped up when three black knives with a chilling demonic aura came at him, startling him into reflexively bending backwards. Unfortunately, he was still slashed across the chest, blood spraying.

The Dao of Mortal Death!

This was the divine power Qin Jun had stolen from Duan Qinglan, a talented cultivator from the Luoshui Region. Since their last encounter, Qin Jun had not seen him again. He was not in the canyon, presumably dead. As for who had killed him, Qin Jun did not care.

Why bother about the dead?

Death took everything away!

"Demonic energy!"

The Lil’ Devil Monarch exclaimed, instantly causing a stir among the surrounding attendees.

Now, who could not see that Qin Jun was both a cultivator of the law and the physical body, and also possessed the Imperial Dragon Energy. And now, he even commanded demonic energy.

How had this man grown to where he was now?

It defied all logic!

Gathering different types of energy within the body could break the balance and even lead to deviation!

Unfortunately, Qin Jun did not explain, so no one could guess his secret.

"You’re already finished."

Qin Jun hovered in the air and sneered, "Once injured by the Deathblade, the flesh will gradually be eroded by the Deathblade’s demonic aura, eventually leading to death by violent explosion."

At first, Duan Qinglan thought he had injured Qin Jun, carelessly leaving afterwards.

The terror of the Deathblade was evident.

Lil’ Devil Monarch’s face changed dramatically, alternating between light and dark. He instinctively swept the area with his Divine Consciousness, only to discover an eerie and invisible demonic aura, like fire, leaking into his body above his chest at an alarming rate, leaving him no time to extract it.

Qin Jun gave a disdainful laugh. Although the Deathblade was a treacherous Divine Power, during the melee of life and death, there was no room for integrity.

As the number of participants dwindled, he realized that killing Lil’ Devil Monarch would take more time and that he might not complete his mission to claim kingship before the Heavenly Convention ended.

With that thought, Qin Jun turned around to hunt the geniuses who had yet to be defeated by him.

As for Lil’ Devil Monarch, even if he didn’t die, he was still considered defeated by Qin Jun’s hand.

As he watched Qin Jun leave, Lil’ Devil Monarch did not relax but instead sat cross-legged in the air to start healing.

His skin turned black at a visible rate, as if black air was winding around his face.

Dealing with other geniuses, Qin Jun was even more dominant. Not everyone was as strong as Lil’ Devil Monarch, necessitating the use of multiple Divine Powers by Qin Jun.

As time ticked away, the number of bodies in the canyon increased, and with fewer and fewer participants, everyone was extremely nervous.

Qin Jun was sweating internally. The mission to claim kingship came with a chance to summon God and Demon once, and a chance for skill inheritance!

That opportunity couldn’t be missed!

Yang Jian and Jin Chanzi had been watching from the side, killing those who recklessly challenged them on the spot; this dissuaded others from provoking them further.

"Do you think we’ll be able to leave smoothly?" Jin Chanzi asked softly, looking at Qin Jun’s retreating figure.

Yang Jian, arms crossed over his chest, watched intently, "Not sure, but I will eliminate all enemies that stand in our way."

Jin Chanzi shook his head with a smile at his powerful confidence. This man was really full of himself.

Just then, a mighty force suddenly descended, pressing down on everyone, causing Qin Jun, who was about to sheath his sword, to plummet. He was powerless to resist against this force.

"Is it over?"

Qin Jun looked up in surprise, only to see shadows in black appearing out of thin air above the canyon, all looking like split bodies of dark emissaries.

That indifferent voice sounded again, "The Heavenly Convention is about to end. All participants, please proceed to Heavenly Peak to receive orders!"

As the voice faded, everyone was once again dragged into the air by an invisible force, and the light covering the canyon vanished instantly.

Qin Jun looked back instinctively and saw Yang Jian and Jin Chanzi following behind at a distance.

Having killed so many celestials, Qin Jun didn’t believe he could leave the Heavenly Realm safely. Perhaps someone was waiting for him on that Heavenly Peak.

But with Yang Jian and Jin Chanzi around, he wasn’t afraid.

"Your Majesty, do you want me to help you remove the power of the world spirit and then leave the Heavenly Realm?"

Yang Jian sent a telepathic message. He also foresaw the upcoming trouble and knew that, with his strength, tearing open the Heavenly Realm to escape would not be difficult.

"There’s no need. We have to destroy the world spirit first!"

Qin Jun replied. After all, having already offended the God Temple, he might as well finish what he started.

Yang Jian was stunned for a moment before his lips curled into a smile of admiration. He appreciated Qin Jun’s audacious spirit.

Although he didn’t understand why Qin Jun wanted to destroy the world spirit, Yang Jian wasn’t interested in asking; his only concern was to protect Qin Jun.
