“There’s nowhere for you to run this time!!”
In the Celestial Marshal Tian Peng’s eyes, his formation was now complete. Ye Wushuang’s law power had been significantly restricted.
That meant the next part—actually fighting Ye Wushuang—would be simple.
As long as his Nine-Tooth Nail Rake struck Ye Wushuang, Ye Wushuang would instantly turn to ash.
Even if Ye Wushuang was now a Supreme Realm expert, there was no way he could withstand a single blow from his rake.
The Marshal had absolute confidence in his own strength.
The next moment, he delivered what he believed to be a decisive strike.
“Take this!”
This blow contained unimaginable power. In terms of pure strength alone, he already far surpassed Ancestral Magistrate Liu Ning.
If Ancestral Magistrate Liu Ning had to withstand this strike, he would undoubtedly die.
However, facing this overwhelmingly fierce attack, Ye Wushuang’s expression didn’t change at all.
He simply and calmly raised his right hand, then spoke:
“All-Seeing Word Secret!”
In the next instant, his aura erupted wildly, directly increasing tenfold, surpassing the limits of the Supreme Realm.
Moreover, his strength, his attacks, and his speed all multiplied by ten.
This tenfold surge allowed him, simply by raising his hand, to block the Marshal’s terrifying strike.
The Nine-Tooth Nail Rake, carrying that earth-shattering power, was effortlessly caught by Ye Wushuang.
It felt even easier than catching a slowly falling stick.
But the moment Ye Wushuang caught the rake, violent shockwaves rippled outward in all directions.
Many of the celestial soldiers were instantly annihilated by these ripples.
One could imagine that the sheer danger of this clash was far beyond what anyone present could comprehend.
At that moment, the Marshal’s eyes went wide.
He stared blankly at Ye Wushuang, unable to process what had just happened for a long time.
After several full breaths, he finally spoke, his voice filled with shock.
“Another law power?!”
If Ye Wushuang only mastered one type of law power, he wouldn’t have been this astonished.
With one law power, he could still deal with it—his one hundred thousand troops could suppress it.
But adding a second law power changed everything completely.
Now, the Marshal found himself in a difficult position.
Nevertheless, he had no intention of stopping.
He swung his Nine-Tooth Nail Rake like a fiery wheel, launching an unbroken chain of attacks against Ye Wushuang.
These continuous strikes were not only incredibly fast but also carried immense destructive force.
One wrong move, one hit, and Ye Wushuang’s soul would scatter on the spot.
Yet despite this, Ye Wushuang continued using only his hands to block the Marshal’s relentless assault.
At this moment, his hands seemed even tougher than Ancestral Magistrate Liu Ning’s Heaven-Overturning Seal. Using perfect technique, he flawlessly deflected each strike.
At the same time, he subtly directed the force of the attacks toward the River Warriors, steadily draining their power.
This went on for a full hundred exchanges.
After a hundred moves, a large number of River Warriors had perished in the aftermath of their battle.
And although the Marshal had grown stronger, he still hadn’t managed to land a blow on Ye Wushuang after a hundred strikes.
This frustrated him greatly.
“Fine, very impressive. You’re one of the few who can withstand a hundred of my moves. But don’t think that means you can defeat me—my River Warriors are no pushovers!”
“River Warriors! Drag him into the Heavenly River and annihilate him!”
“Yes, sir!”
At the Marshal’s command, the River Warriors immediately sprang into action.
Every single one of them merged into the waters of the Heavenly River. Then, with the entire river under their control,
they directed it to surge toward Ye Wushuang, surrounding him like a sphere.
Now, all they had to do was close in, and they would drag him into the river’s depths.
Once inside, there would be no escape.
At this point, Ye Wushuang, completely surrounded, truly seemed like a turtle trapped in a jar.
The Marshal said nothing more, merely watching, waiting for Ye Wushuang to be consumed by the Heavenly River.
But then, Ye Wushuang spoke.
“Remember what you said. If I defeat you, you’ll tell me everything I want to know.”
“Heh, survive first, then we’ll talk.”
The Marshal didn’t believe for a second that Ye Wushuang could survive the Heavenly River.
So he didn’t bother giving a direct answer.
Smirking, he simply waited to see how this troublesome opponent would be swallowed whole.
But after hearing the Marshal’s response, Ye Wushuang’s expression became especially serious.
“In that case, I’ll just have to capture you first.”
“Imprisonment!”
By now, Ye Wushuang’s apertures had undergone a tremendous transformation. The immortal energy that once filled them had been replaced by a far more powerful purple energy within his body.
This also made his Imprisonment power far more complete.
When he manifested his twelve apertures and then unleashed his Imprisonment power, the entire world around him ground to a halt.
The Heavenly River and the one hundred thousand River Warriors froze completely motionless.
Even the Marshal, though still conscious, found himself unable to move.
In the next moment, countless sword intents gathered around Ye Wushuang.
“Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Origin—Break!”
Hundreds of thousands of different sword intents erupted from Ye Wushuang’s body, shooting straight toward the one hundred thousand River Warriors.
As the sword intents were unleashed, the Warriors suffered a devastating blow.
Completely immobilized by the Imprisonment power, they had no way to defend themselves.
Instantly, countless River Warriors were obliterated by Ye Wushuang’s sword intents.
At the same moment, the mighty waters of the Heavenly River itself were mostly vaporized.
In the Marshal’s eyes, all of his River Warriors were dead.
Beneath the entire tribulation, only he and half a river remained.
And then, Ye Wushuang’s sword intents gathered once more.
Hundreds of thousands of them converged in his hand, forming a single, enormous divine sword.
Without hesitation, Ye Wushuang swung it directly at the Marshal.
The Marshal’s eyes widened in shock, a sudden fear welling up inside him.
But even so, he had no way to make Ye Wushuang stop.
He could only watch as the colossal sword came crashing down.
The strike split the tribulation clouds above in two, revealing a long, empty gash in the sky.
And the Marshal before Ye Wushuang—one of his arms was completely severed.
In the end, Ye Wushuang held back. He didn’t destroy the Marshal’s soul entirely but spared his life.
“Now, can you answer my questions?”
