Chapter 1699: The Final Fight

When you took stock of them, Wu Yu actually had many moves in his arsenal.

If all Yang Qiang had was the Mystiques that he had used earlier, Wu Yu quite liked his chances against Yang Qiang.

However, a mysterious guy like Yang Qiang - who knew how many more secret weapons he held? Besides, his Eye of Heaven had only used one sealing ability so far. Wu Yu sensed that things would be less than straightforward.

He made the first move to test Yang Qiang. He sent out his 1 million doppelgangers, each using doppelganger heavenly rule, which converged and blasted out at Yang Qiang.

Yang Qiang scoffed at it. He did not even blink, simply using his Heaven’s Ruin Painted Halberd epochal immortal treasure to draw a line in the air. Wu Yu’s doppelganger heavenly rule was cut clean through.

Even an ordinary immortal emperor would not have dealt with Wu Yu’s doppelganger heavenly rule so easily. But Yang Qiang did not even budge an inch.

"If that’s all you’re capable of, prepare to die!"

Yang Qiang said coldly. His Heaven’s Ruin Painted Halberd twirled with even more force, sending out a thunderous wave of power. He darted near Wu Yu in a flash.

Heaven’s Ruin Painted Halberd came lancing towards him!

"Void Bedlam!"

Yang Qiang spit. The void around Wu Yu immediately started crumbling, and he felt like he was about to be sucked into a void chasm!

Happy Fleece Fairy had fallen to the same skill in a heartbeat, without even being able to offer any resistance.

Wu Yu did not dare to underestimate him. His own Ruyi Jingu Bang responded immediately. "Bedlam of Heaven and Earth!"

The first seal Mystique of the epochal immortal treasure sent a shaft of golden light crashing against the Heaven’s Ruin Painted Halberd. An incredible shockwave resulted from the epochal immortal treasures clashing, and the two were sent flying backwards.

Yang Qiang’s Heaven’s Ruin Painted Halberd had not been able to close things out, but he did not pause, immediately opening the third eye on his forehead: "Eye of Heaven!"

A terrible force froze Wu Yu up, and he was completely paralyzed in the air.

A familiar experience!

Wu Yu recalled that True Lord Erlang had used the same move back at at Sage’s Equal Sky, allowing the Dhrtarastra and Mighty Miracle God to capture them.

Of course, True Lord Erlang Yang Jian was much stronger than Yang Qiang. The Eye of Heaven did not make Wu Yu feel as powerless as he did back then.

Yang Qiang’s Eye of Heaven was much, much weaker than Wu Yu’s previous experience.

Although it might work well against other opponents of that cultivation realm, but it was naive to think it would work against Wu Yu.

"Golden eyes heavenly rule!"

After being trapped, Wu Yu’s eyes glowed, shooting golden beams that dissipated the paralyzing force. The Eye of Heaven had not been destroyed, but it posed no more threat to Wu Yu.

"Crusader heavenly rule!"

Wu Yu’s body was charged with crusader heavenly rule, and his eyes fired out another supercharged beam of golden eyes heavenly rule.

This one was more than twice as strong as the last, bolstered by crusader heavenly rule.

"Void Bedlam!"

Yang Qiang did not flinch, still keeping the same chilling expression. His Heaven’s Ruin Painted Halberd swept out again with the Void Bedlam Mystique. The void before him split, and absorbed golden eyes heavenly rule into it. It was completely unable to even close in on Yang Qiang himself!

The back and forth continued, neither able to seize victory for the moment. They continued to cautiously feel the other out, drawing out each other’s abilities one by one.

On the spectator podium, the Mettle Sky immortal emperors and guests were all watching with bated breath.

Before this, no one would have bet a penny on Wu Yu before this, but after Wu Yu defeated Li Tianji, no one doubted his ability now.

Some even wondered if Yang Qiang would be a match for Wu Yu!

After all, with one Li Tianji already falling to Wu Yu, it was no madness to think that Yang Qiang might also lose to Wu Yu!

The Patriarch Bodhi disciples all wiped some cold sweat off their brows.

They had only expected Wu Yu to make it to the quarter finals. Even as Wu Yu entered the semis, they all felt that he had already peaked and would lose to Li Tianji as a matter of course. Who could stand against those four epochal immortal treasures?

This was an epic battle, balanced on a razor’s edge!

Even some of the first and second tier immortal emperors were not a match for Wu Yu and Yang Qiang. Both of them were unbelievably strong.

Yang Qiang’s case was understandable, as the son of True Lord Erlang Yang Jian. He had been given the finest grooming since young and furnished with superb cultivation resources since young.

But no one had expected Wu Yu to perform as well as he did.

They knew that he had obtained the 10th Grade Mark of an Immortal King, but that alone should not have gotten him this far. This Wu Yu definitely had other secrets.

Perhaps that secret was why the Patriarch Bodhi had taken a liking to him!

Of course, no one knew Wu Yu’s secrets for now. The Ruyi Jingu Bang in his hand was odd, and even True Lord Erlang was curious about it. Still, Wu Yu had many other secrets besides that, which could not be revealed.

As for the phoenix immortal beasts, all six phoenix immortal emperors were watching.

Although Wu Yu and Yang Qiang had only clashed for a short while, but certain things were already made clear. Although both were still immortal kings, they fought with the undisputed power of immortal emperors. Their peerless ability distinguished them as the finest of their generation.

To be able to enter the Immortal Emperor Trials was in itself a qualification. One needed to be strong enough to qualify. And to rise to be the cream of this fine crop was an accomplishment recognized throughout the sky palaces.

Such fighters would definitely rise to important positions in the sky palaces in the future. Besides, one was backed by Yang Jian, the other by the Patriarch Bodhi!

In the crowd was Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord/Nangong Wei. She was still as beautiful as ever, but a hint of ice lingered in her eyes. She watched the battle without expression, her thoughts unknown.

Her gaze would waver slightly when she looked at Wu Yu, although it was so subtle that most would not notice it.

On the other side, Luo Pin was staring over at the phoenix immortal beasts.

At the Immortal Dragon Imperial Realm, this Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord/Nangong Wei had publicly announced Wu Yu’s identity, sending him fleeing the sky palaces to the Demon Immortal Realm, where he had gone through tribulations aplenty in the Eternal Emperor Tomb.

Luo Pin would never forget that scene.

She was burning with a fierce desire to know. What had made her do that?

Jealousy of her and Wu Yu?

Even now, Luo Pin felt uneasy, although she could not see how Dancing Flame Phoenix Lord could do anything to them even if she wanted to.

The arrival of the phoenix immortal beasts made her feel restless and anxious.

Of course, Luo Pin would be happy if this was just her imagination running wild.

The intense battle raged on below, a nerve-wrecking back and forth as each probed the other for weaknesses. They were truly engaged now.

Finally, Yang Qiang’s life-bound companion beast Tyrant showed itself. The black hound’s blood-curdling howls sent shockwaves through the air. It leapt at Wu Yu, presenting a fanged menace in synergy with the Heaven’s Ruin Painted Halberd’s sharp edge.

"Sanctified flesh heavenly rule!"

Wu Yu’s fighting power rose a level!

Crusader heavenly rule and sanctified flesh heavenly rule both made him stronger. Against Yang Qiang and the Howling Celestial Dog, they were equivalent to two epochal immortal treasures, although the Howling Celestial Dog itself was worth more than one epochal immortal treasure.

The Howling Celestial Dog Tyrant was not dead like other epochal immortal treasures. Its feral eyes marked it as a sentient, deadly beast. When it worked together with Yang Qiang, it far exceeded the power of an additional epochal immortal treasure!

Yang Qiang and Tyrant’s combined assault was at least equal to Li Tianji’s four epochal immortal treasures.

Even with sanctified flesh heavenly rule and crusader heavenly rule, Wu Yu found himself in trouble.

"Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth!"

Wu Yu grew rapidly, and his strength with it!

Besides, the Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth bolstered him even more than his heavenly rules. Wu Yu’s strength was at a peak now, as the Ruyi Jingu Bang swept out.

"Bedlam of Heaven and Earth!"

The void itself gave way before the golden light, his strike many times more powerful than the last one!

Wu Yu’s tremendous strike made both Yang Qiang and Tyrant sense its danger. Both leaped backwards, far out of Wu Yu’s range. Their expressions turned guarded.
