Chapter 856: Chapter 856: Furious Battle with Fate

"In past lives and this one, I have never feared, not even fate itself will I submit to!"

As Qin Jun’s words fell, the God and Demon of Extreme Flame slowly raised their palm, yet the speaker at this moment was not Qin Jun, but Ji Yongsheng.

In this critical moment, Ji Yongsheng controlled Qin Jun’s body, struggling against fate in his stead.

"This palm strike is for the Holy City!"

The God and Demon of Extreme Flame violently thrust their palm forward, and in an instant, the terrifying Samadhi Real Fire rapidly coalesced into a gigantic palm that struck towards the Eye of Fate.

This colossal palm was even larger than the entire Holy City, causing the generals still within the ruins to gasp in astonishment.

"Holy crap! Has His Majesty used a cheat code?"

Sun Wukong exclaimed, such words he himself had heard from Qin Jun before. He found them amusing and had remembered them, never expecting they could be applied to Qin Jun himself.

Not only Sun Wukong, but Xing Tian and other gods and demons were startled as well.

With such a palm strike, they lacked the confidence to receive it themselves; at this moment, Qin Jun appeared many times more domineering than usual.

It was quite simply the difference between heaven and earth.

The massive palm collided with the light barrier of the Eye of Fate, as strong winds assaulted from all directions, shaking the entire Southern Domain celestial world.

Boom—

The gigantic palm struck the light barrier, and wind waves like long dragons spilled from the edges of the palm, swaying in the air, while Qin Jun gazed up at the Eye of Fate, the red glow in his eyes not diminishing but growing more intense instead.

The God and Demon of Extreme Flame raised their palm again, and Ji Yongsheng’s voice spilled from Qin Jun’s mouth, "This palm strike is for the Xuandang Heaven and Earth!"

Another domineering palm strike was launched, all issuing the Cycle Heavenly Palm, whose oppressive force sent chills down every creature’s spine.

At this moment, Ji Yongsheng was not only venting for Qin Jun but also for himself.

The annihilation of the Holy City!

The sealing of the Xuandang great world!

All creatures trapped as if they were birds in a cage!

Why should they have such a fate?

The two palms overlapped, causing the entire sea of clouds to tremble and surge in a truly spectacular vision, leaving the millions of beings within the Holy City speechless in awe, as if witnessing a divine miracle.

Both colossal palms were enough to cover the Holy City, and in front of such behemoths, the citizens and cultivators all felt their own insignificance.

"Could it work?"

Wang Xue murmured, her face filled with disbelief. When had His Majesty acquired such power?

Daji had been frowning all along, more worried about Qin Jun’s well-being than his strength. Fearing his body wouldn’t withstand such an outbreak of power.

"This palm strike is for this life!"

Ji Yongsheng’s voice rang out once again, as the God and Demon of Extreme Flame swung another palm.

Each palm strike filled the beings of the Holy City with a sense of the heavens collapsing and the earth shattering.

At this moment, Qin Jun’s consciousness was gradually returning. He was temporarily unable to control his body and could only watch as the God and Demon of Extreme Flame attacked the Eye of Fate.

Not far off, Liu Ruolai gripped the Baize Command Sword, her beautiful brows tightly knit. As the Child of Fate, she understood fate best, and for Qin Jun to attempt to defy fate was like a fool’s dream.

But this was the Qin Jun she knew.

From their meeting ten thousand years ago until now, she had reincarnated dozens of times, her personality always changing; only Qin Jun remained as fearless as ever, believing himself to be greater than the heavens.

She couldn’t help but recall, back when Qin Jun taught her and Qingtian how to cultivate ten thousand years ago, she once asked Qin Jun, "Big brother, isn’t there anything you’re afraid of?"

"Afraid? I used to fear many things. After being reborn, I swore to fear nothing," Qin Jun had answered while stroking her hair, his smiling face filled with confidence that deeply impressed Shouxin.

Now in this life, transformed into Liu Ruolai, the power of fate brought her and Qin Jun together again. Following Qin Jun, they traversed endless mountain ranges. Along the way, Qin Jun always turned danger into safety, with even the mightiest foes falling before him.

However, this time he faced fate.

The Great Dao is boundless, fate supreme; as long as there are living beings, there is fate.

Every choice made by a living being spawns an unknown twist of fate.

No one can escape fate.

"Why put yourself through this..." Liu Ruolai sighed after inheriting the legacy of fate, her awakening of memories from dozens of reincarnations altered her temperament to resemble the indifferent coldness of a deity.

As she watched the Infernal Demon God wildly swing its palms against the sky, she couldn’t help but touch her own belly.

Only after understanding fate did she realize she was pregnant, something no one, including herself, had known because the fetus inside her wasn’t even a month old yet.

In theory, she and Qin Jun would have needed to unite thousands of times to conceive, given the demanding nature of the Infernal Demon God’s bloodline.

But having consumed the Nirvanic Bodhi and with her status as the child of fate, her own bloodline wouldn’t be much inferior to the Infernal Demon God’s, resulting in her quick conception.

Because she was with child, it triggered fate.

Fate wanted to sever the connection between her and Qin Jun because fate repelled the Infernal Demon God.

And thus the current situation came to be.

"Fate..."

Qin Jun murmured from within the Infernal Demon God, his voice unmistakably his own this time.

His expression twisted, he clenched his teeth and said, "So what of fate, I have never believed in destiny!"

If he believed in fate, how could he have been reborn?

If he believed in fate, what would the mythology system amount to?

If he believed in fate, could he just let Liu Ruolai go with the Eye of Destiny?

"Ji Yongsheng, destroy that eye which represents fate!"

Qin Jun roared with rage in his heart; he refused to bow to fate!

The moment Daji rescued him from the prison cart, he had sworn in his heart to climb to the unrivaled summit!

If he were to bow now, wouldn’t it mean submitting to fate?

"Very well!"

The domineering voice of Ji Yongsheng emerged from Qin Jun’s lips as the Infernal Demon God consecutively launched palm strikes, each Cycle Heavenly Palm hitting the barrier guarding the Eye of Destiny, causing cracks to gradually form on it.

All living beings watched tensely as if the Infernal Demon God was breaking the heavens themselves.

"Your Majesty mustn’t lose..."

Li Yuanba gripped his fists tightly, grinding his teeth, wishing he could lend a hand to Qin Jun. Alas, he was powerless against the Eye of Destiny.

Not just him, all the other generals of the Great Qin Heavenly Court prayed for Qin Jun.

In the past, they had fought valiantly against enemies; now, they could only watch Qin Jun fight, their hearts filled with indescribable shock and complexity.

The wild Infernal Demon God stirred tempestuous winds, wreaking havoc across the land.

—Crash—

The barrier protecting the Eye of Destiny finally shattered, a sight that uplifted all living beings. Though they knew not what the eye was, it was too terrifying, and they too hoped that the omnipotent Holy Emperor of Qin would drive it away.

"Battling fate..."

Bai Ze muttered to herself, her pretty face flooded with complex emotions.

How many have been displaced and battered by fate, and how many can truly defy it?

"Die!"

Qin Jun suddenly charged toward the Eye of Destiny, Ji Yongsheng’s domineering roar coming from his mouth, deafening to all who heard.

The Infernal Demon God raised its hands, two heavenly wheels of creation condensing in its palms, radiating golden light, and hurtling towards the Eye of Destiny.

Even as it stood a hundred feet tall, the Infernal Demon God seemed minuscule in front of the Eye of Destiny.

Like an ant, it was hard to imagine it could defeat the Eye of Destiny.
