Xuanhuan: The Empress and I Swapped Bodies - Chapter 128
“Gasp! Th-this can’t be! Her Majesty is so powerful, she’s created so many miracles… how could she possibly not be Ye Wushuang’s match at the same realm?”
“Isn’t this disciple of mine a bit too strong??”
The Divine Dragon Empress was immensely powerful, having accomplished one miracle after another.
Not only had she shattered the conventional limits of realms, but fighting across levels was as simple as drinking water for her.
Yet now, this incredibly powerful Empress couldn’t withstand a single punch from Ye Wushuang.
If Zongzheng Liuning hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn’t have believed such an absurd thing could happen in this world.
Yes, absurd.
It was so unbelievable it felt ludicrous.
However, the feeling of absurdity was limited to Zongzheng Liuning; Ye Wushuang certainly didn’t share it.
He was fully aware of the Divine Dragon Empress’s strength.
That’s precisely why, before the spar, he had suggested she use the strength of the Venerable Realm.
He never expected that during the match, she would still only use the power of the Dao Palace Realm.
Especially during her second attack, when her power didn’t increase in the slightest, it left Ye Wushuang unsure how to proceed.
So, he stopped and called out loudly:
“Your Majesty, you should still use the strength of the Venerable Realm! I am very clear about your capabilities!!”
“If you don’t use the Venerable Realm’s strength, this spar is completely pointless!!”
If the Divine Dragon Empress couldn’t exert power comparable to Ye Wushuang’s, then the match truly held no meaning.
There was no arrogance in Ye Wushuang’s words now, only blunt honesty.
This point was understood not only by Ye Wushuang but also by the Divine Dragon Imperial Seal.
Thus, the Seal also spoke by the Empress’s ear:
“You should really do as he says and use the Venerable Realm’s strength to spar with him!”
“After all, he knows your capabilities very well. For him to say this during the match, he naturally knows what level of strength you need to match him in his current state!!”
“Not to mention, although he’s only at the Dao Palace Realm, the resources he consumed are on par with what a Immortal King Realm expert would need!”
“With such a massive pile of resources stacked onto him, how could he not be strong??”
After hearing this, the Divine Dragon Empress was finally persuaded.
She let go of her insistence on suppressing Ye Wushuang using the same realm.
After two attempts, she understood that using the same realm’s strength, she simply couldn’t suppress him.
So, she decided to follow Ye Wushuang’s suggestion and directly utilize the power of the Venerable Realm.
The next moment, the Divine Dragon Empress’s aura surged violently, and the power within her body was unleashed to a much greater degree.
At this moment, she felt immeasurably stronger than before.
Consequently, her confidence grew.
“Since that’s the case, I shall grant your wish!!”
With that, the Divine Dragon Empress struck again, this time with an even more imposing presence.
So powerful that the very sky and earth in that area seemed to change color, producing strange phenomena.
Such phenomena were usually only possible for those at the Xianren Realm or higher.
But now, the Divine Dragon Empress, using only Venerable Realm strength, could accomplish this.
It had to be said, her power truly far surpassed others.
Seeing the Divine Dragon Empress’s charge, Ye Wushuang also became exceptionally serious.
The next moment, he even employed his Dao techniques.
As the Divine Dragon Empress charged towards him, he shouted a single word:
“Restrain!”
Instantly, the Divine Dragon Empress felt a binding force appear between heaven and earth, pinning her firmly in place.
Not only was her body restrained, but even the magical power within her was locked down.
This was a situation the Divine Dragon Empress had never encountered before.
Because of this, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of urgency.
The power within her body began to clash wildly, trying to break through this restraint.
Only by shattering it could she continue her fight with Ye Wushuang.
While she struggled against the bind, Ye Wushuang pressed his attack.
It was still a single punch, heading straight for the Divine Dragon Empress.
Logically, this punch shouldn’t be particularly dangerous.
After all, the Empress had now elevated her realm to the Venerable Realm.
Fighting Ye Wushuang, who was merely at the Dao Palace Realm, shouldn’t be too difficult for her at the Venerable Realm.
But currently restrained by Ye Wushuang’s technique, trying to continue the fight became extremely challenging.
There was even a possibility she could be killed by Ye Wushuang’s single punch.
Fortunately, just as Ye Wushuang was about to reach her, the Divine Dragon Empress finally managed to break through the restraint.
In that hurried moment, she gathered her power again to meet Ye Wushuang’s attack.
However, her response felt somewhat insufficient and strained.
As a result, when her fist collided with Ye Wushuang’s, she couldn’t bring her full Venerable Realm strength to bear properly.
This meant that even after unleashing her Venerable Realm power, she still couldn’t suppress Ye Wushuang.
At best, they were fighting on equal terms.
Ye Wushuang, however, fought without any discomfort. Each of his attacks was fluid and seamless.
This smoothness allowed his condition to improve steadily, and simultaneously, the force behind his blows grew heavier and heavier.
The weight of this relentless force pressed down on the Divine Dragon Empress, causing her to gradually lose ground as the fight progressed.
The Empress tried every method she could think of to counter, but nothing could withstand the crushing weight of Ye Wushuang’s fists.
His punches were like massive mountains, relentlessly bearing down on her, giving her no chance to turn the tables.
This was a situation the Divine Dragon Empress had never experienced before.
She felt an unprecedented sense of frustration and suffocation.
No matter how much strength she exerted, she couldn’t break through Ye Wushuang’s oppressive offense.
Even when she increased her power, Ye Wushuang’s power seemed to increase as well.
It was as if he was her natural counter, perfectly and completely suppressing her.
She came dangerously close to losing control and unleashing her full power to retaliate against Ye Wushuang.
But in the end, she managed to restrain herself.
They only stopped when she had been beaten into a position where she could no longer effectively fight back.
“You… how did you do it? Why is your Dao Palace Realm so powerful??”
“Hmm? Build a solid foundation, pile on the resources… you naturally become strong.”
“If you were willing to re-cultivate, you could also build a foundation as solid as mine!!”
“Re-cultivate? That… won’t be necessary.”
The Divine Dragon Empress was deeply tempted by Ye Wushuang’s current ability to fight across realms.
But having to disperse her cultivation and start over was something she simply couldn’t bring herself to do.
However, this battle had given her many new insights, so she needed to leave quickly.
“Your strength is truly remarkable. Even when I’m two realms stronger, I’m still no match for you. I hope you can maintain this and grow even stronger!!”
Having said that, the Divine Dragon Empress left behind the resources she had brought and departed.
