Peerless Dragon Sovereign-Chapter 646: How Could It Be You?

"Seeking death? Then I’ll grant your wish!" Qiu Huang sneered coldly, standing aloft, waiting for Chu Nan to attack.

Chu Nan, unafraid of life and death, launched himself forward with powerful legs, wielding the Golden Sun Bloodbath Sword.

Boundless Sword Qi came attacking, but Qiu Huang showed no fear, sneering, "It’s a good sword, but your Sword Qi is too weak!"

The Holy Martial Scythe swept across, and the aura of death descended in a surge of terror.

Crack!

The Sword Qi collapsed, and under the light of the Holy Martial Scythe, Chu Nan’s body shattered into pieces, turning into fragments of flesh.

Then, in that moment, a flash of life force appeared, pulling all the flesh together by a strange power.

Nine-turn Life Elixir, only two drops left!

Chu Nan’s injuries healed completely, and the Dragon Slaughter Tower transformed and descended oppressively.

An endless torrent of Dragon Qi erupted instantly, causing Qiu Huang’s expression to change slightly, "Earth Vein Dragon Qi, a nice find, once you’re dead, this tower will be mine too!"

Boom!

The aura of death transformed into a storm reaching the sky, as the Holy Martial Scythe danced, turning the surrounding weather into pitch black, suppressing the aura of the Dragon Slaughter Tower with darkness and the power of death.

Finally, Qiu Huang lashed out a punch across the air, causing the Dragon Slaughter Tower to shake violently, tumbling like a meteor and crashing heavily into the ground, creating a deep pit.

Qiu Huang smoothly redirected his target, striking a palm across the air.

Bam! 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

A dark Palm Seal was left on Chu Nan’s chest, his life force visibly draining, and the aura of death began to permeate within him.

The Nine-turn Life Elixir was refined, once again pulling Chu Nan back from the brink of death.

Qiu Huang remained unmoved, snorting coldly, "I wonder just how many drops of Nine-turn Life Elixir you have left!"

This time, not waiting for Chu Nan’s move, he flashed forward, and the Holy Martial Scythe carved a dark ripple in the air less than a hundred meters away.

With a flash of blood light, Chu Nan was decapitated.

Just as Qiu Huang thought Chu Nan was dead, his separated head and body reunited, as the last drop of Nine-turn Life Elixir was refined, restoring him anew.

Boom!

Eight layers of the Sea of Clouds manifested simultaneously, and in an instant of recovering from his injuries, Chu Nan released all his Sea of Clouds, beginning to burn.

The burning Sea of Clouds unleashed an unprecedented terrifying power from within Chu Nan, as a newfound strength surged through him. As all his Sea of Clouds burned away, he gained power comparable to the Ninth Heaven.

"Qiu Huang, die for me!" Wielding the Golden Sun Bloodbath Sword, Chu Nan unleashed his strongest attack by burning all his Sea of Clouds!

A gigantic Ice Dragon appeared in the sky, chilling the air within a hundred miles to the freezing point, roaring towards Qiu Huang.

Wherever the Ice Dragon passed, all turned to frost.

This was a terrifying power no ordinary person could withstand, a sure-kill strike earned with all of Chu Nan’s cultivation.

The Ice Dragon fell, crashing heavily towards Qiu Huang.

Qiu Huang sneered, circulating the power of darkness and death within him, throwing a mighty punch.

The Ice Dragon’s power rivaled the Ninth Heaven, but Qiu Huang was a true pinnacle expert of the Ninth Heaven!

With a single punch, the Ice Dragon shattered into fragments, its exploded debris piercing through Chu Nan’s flesh, spilling large amounts of blood.

"Die!"

Seizing the momentum, Qiu Huang swept the Holy Martial Scythe, severing Chu Nan’s body in half, staining the skies with blood.

Chu Nan’s expression remained cold, determined to strike a sword even with only half his body left.

Yet Qiu Huang scoffed, coldly sneering, and pierced with a palm.

Thump!

The palm pierced Chu Nan’s forehead, then twisted lightly, causing the entire head to explode instantly, with his bisected corpse collapsing heavily to the ground.

Chu Nan... was dead.

Qiu Huang flicked the blood off his hand, looking at Chu Nan’s broken body and saying, "I gave you many chances, but you just didn’t know how to value them. Truly, you brought this upon yourself!"

Leaving these words behind, Qiu Huang held no more attachment, turning towards the sun in the sky.

His light steps tread on the solid mountain peak, advancing step by step towards his dream.

One mile... two miles... ten miles!

The core sun of the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall drew closer to Qiu Huang, and at this moment, he couldn’t contain his excitement and agitation, his entire being trembling uncontrollably.

"Planned for thousands of years, endured countless hardships, finally it has come to this moment."

"One of the three holy halls of the Ancestor Sect, the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall, is finally within my grasp!"

Qiu Huang’s heart was shouting, roaring, even brimming with tears.

Scenes of the past flooded his mind—struggles in youth, the glory of joining the Ancestor Sect, the fear of division between two realms, the anxiety over stalled Cultivation growth, the resolve to betray the Ancestor Sect, the ruthless blood sacrifice...

To reach this point, he sacrificed so much, almost discarding even his self.

He would refine the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall, obtain the Supreme Treasure from this place, and traverse the two realms, ascending to the Unified Realm.

Once he treads the Heavenly Balance Realm, he shall rise like a bird to the sky, like a dragon returning to the sea!

Soon, Qiu Huang reached the pinnacle of the peak, the core of the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall, where the enormous sun, crafted by the Stone Man, truly resided.

It pulsed like the heart of the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall, beating furiously.

Emitting a power that fascinated and awed Qiu Huang, even he, at the peak of the Ninth Heaven, felt the urge to kneel upon seeing the sun.

But quickly, that thought was dispelled by Qiu Huang, for he knew the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall would soon belong to him.

He would remain here with endless time to refine this core, be it ten years or a hundred, for the day would surely come when an unowned core would be refined.

At this moment, Qiu Huang was close to the sun, turning to glance behind him.

Below lay the grievously wounded Lu Daochang and Dragon Beast, as well as Chu Nan’s broken corpse, all stepping stones on his road to glory.

Qiu Huang knew many more such people would arise in the future, but with the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall, he would not fear!

After refining the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall, he would wield the power to challenge the Qin Royal Family and truly rule the Celestial Crossing Realm.

Looking back at the sun, Qiu Huang noticed that the shadow within the sun was also moving, seemingly excitedly waiting for his arrival.

"Could it be that it’s inviting me to enter that shadow?" Qiu Huang quickly speculated in his heart, slowly extending his hand to touch the sun.

In his mind, the core of the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall would actively invite him, the ultimate victor, to step into the sun, so his eyes were full of expectation.

Screech!

But just as Qiu Huang’s fingers touched the sun, intense heat instantly evaporated his hand.

Seeing the instantly burnt hand, Qiu Huang’s face revealed rage, "Rejects me! I am the ultimate victor, why does it reject me!"

Qiu Huang couldn’t believe, unwilling to believe, stretching out his hand again to touch, only to lose his entire arm this time.

His steps involuntarily retreated, terror, bewilderment, and despair filling his heart.

Just then, Qiu Huang noticed the shadow meditating within the sun suddenly moved, slowly standing and walking towards him.

"The Stone Man is coming out, how can that be? Could it be it’s not the core of the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall, just a Stone Man?" It was unbelievable for Qiu Huang; if this wasn’t the core, what was he fighting for until now?

Just then, the shadow within the sun stepped out.

With eyes full of uncertainty, Qiu Huang watched everything before him, not knowing what kind of existence would emerge from the sun, nor how to deal with what lies ahead.

But when that shadow truly emerged from the sun, Qiu Huang was shocked and horrified, as if witnessing the moment the two realms split, he exclaimed, "Chu Nan, how can it be you!"
