Chapter 2233: Fall of an Emperor

Only by living as oneself can one better display oneself.

Along the way, the clone had always wanted to show off, but he never had.

Occasionally, once or twice, it was only to better display himself.

Deep down, he had always been that low-key, reserved, down-to-earth, innovative and pragmatic honest man.

Thinking of this... his heart suddenly cleared.

The swordsmanship he had comprehended before also changed.

If Qianqianjie, Ganchang Xiaosiji, Laju Chenghui, and Feng Buzhi were all tinged with lingering affection, now with the change of mood, they became more splendid, carrying an indomitable and proud spirit.

Loved ones need protection, but one cannot become a slave.

Just like an adult man, it is right to earn money to support the family, but he cannot be bound by life, living solely for the sake of living.

Instead, one must forge ahead bravely and live as oneself.

When one's strength and ability are sufficient, what one wishes to protect can naturally be protected.

Without such power... at worst, we die together.

What is there to be tangled about?

With the knot in his heart loosened, Zhang Xuan looked forward again.

The battle between the two sides continued.

The fight between the two most powerful experts left the surrounding onlookers silent, not daring to breathe loudly.

"So strong..."

Little Yellow Chicken also shook, its eyes full of disbelief: "In just over forty years, to have cultivated to such a level, this Tianzong Emperor is truly a genius among geniuses..."

He had lived for who knows how many years and had even been reborn once, yet compared to the other, he was far inferior, which fully demonstrated the other's talent.

It had reached a level that made people despair.

After sighing, he looked at the young man beside him and couldn't help shaking his head again.

It seemed that this one's talent was no less than the other's... perhaps even superior.

Maybe reaching such a realm would take even less time than the other, and in a few more years, he could accomplish it...

"In just over forty years, to possess such strength is indeed admirable... However, I still have one final move. If you can break it, I die; if you can't, you die!"

Sheathing her sword, Luo Ruoxin looked over, her voice cold and indifferent.

"I also have a move." Kong Shi looked over, his gaze still calm: "If I die, I hope you will keep your previous promise!"

"Rest assured!" Luo Ruoxin nodded: "If I die, I hope you will keep your promise as well."

"Naturally!"

Kong Shi nodded.

"Let's begin!"

Since the decision was made, the two said no more nonsense, shook their bodies, and acted simultaneously.

A powerful and unmatched sword intent spread out, the staff hung in the air, power roared, and the moonlight was overshadowed by their collision in an instant.

The clash of the two top emperors dimmed the moonlight.

"What is that?"

"I don't know..."

"It seems to be the decisive battle between that emperor from Zizaitian and the Tianzong Emperor!"

"The decisive battle on the moon?"

"So it is said; otherwise, who could cause such a commotion?"

...

At the same time, countless people in the Divine Realm looked up at the sky, where a beam of light shone from the moon, like the blazing sun.

Under the dazzling light, in front of Kong Shi's staff, it seemed a river of time appeared, with countless figures flowing within, from ancient times to the present, containing thousands or tens of thousands of years of history.

In each period of history, there was a Kong Shi, some enraged, some kind, some happy, some sorrowful...

The many Kong Shi combined together, like the wheels of history, rolled forward, unstoppable.

The ultimate move, Spring and Autumn!

One stroke for spring, one stroke for autumn, connecting past and present.

All Kong Shi from past and present, all their thoughts, concentrated together, instantly multiplied their power a hundredfold, a thousandfold.

The entire moon seemed unable to bear this heavy pressure, about to fall from the sky.

The rocks on the ground, under the erosion of history, turned from dark gray to white, and then... shattered.

No one can stop time, no matter how strong.

"Luo Ruoxin..."

Unexpected that Kong Shi's move contained the weight of time, Zhang Xuan was extremely nervous and quickly looked at the girl, seeing her bright eyes glance at him with attachment, then her delicate brows raised.

"I've been waiting for this move of yours..."

With a flick of her long sword, sword intent pierced through.

This sword seemed to remain still in place, not extending forward, but its sword intent instantly pierced through a thousand ages, cutting across history.

A thousand ages of history, a single line...

Humans are three-dimensional; when encountering danger, they can dodge, but history has only one line, no chance to change, no chance to choose, and will not evade.

Luo Ruoxin's sword precisely targeted this weakness of the "Spring and Autumn" move, piercing through in one stroke, making it impossible for the figures in history to dodge.

Unexpected such a rapid change, Zhang Xuan's face turned pale.

Just now he thought Luo Ruoxin would surely be unable to withstand the Spring and Autumn history, but never expected that with one sword stroke, history would collapse.

The past is the past; it cannot replace the present and the future!

"It's the Master Teacher Continent; she obtained the Spring and Autumn Canon and thoroughly studied it..."

His body shook.

This move was clearly created to counter Kong Shi's ultimate technique.

With herself as the center, using ethereal power, she pierced through history... pierced through time!

If she hadn't obtained the Spring and Autumn Canon, she certainly couldn't have created it...

And entering Kong Temple and obtaining the canon, I helped a lot... That is to say, if Kong Shi is really killed, I will also be an accomplice...

He quickly looked at Kong Shi, hoping he could dodge this sword or have a way to counter it, but instead saw him put down his staff, not resisting.

"No..."

With a cry, Zhang Xuan tried to rush over but felt his shoulder held tight by Little Yellow Chicken.

"The Kong Shi in history and the present one are fused; if killed in history, in reality, there is no escape... This is the greatest flaw and vulnerability of this move; there is no way to save him..."

Little Yellow Chicken said hurriedly.

"But..." Tears streamed down Zhang Xuan's face.

He knew the other was right.

History is a single line; once one's self in history is killed, the self in reality will also disappear...

Spring and Autumn is very powerful, but as long as one possesses the power and method to pierce through history, it amounts to nothing.

"Don't forget what you promised me..."

While grieving, Kong Shi's faint voice sounded in his ears. Zhang Xuan looked and saw Kong Shi's tall figure slowly collapsing backward.

Boom!

Under the roaring sword energy, the river of history collapsed, and the figures within exploded one after another.

Kong Shi in reality, before even falling to the ground, also exploded with the force, turning into mist.

Then, a rule containing the power of Heavenly Dao abruptly emerged from the mist and shot toward the sky.

Luo Ruoxin grabbed in the air.

The mist was pinched between her fingers, unable to escape.

Rumble!

All this happened in an instant; the light of their battle only then dimmed, the狂暴 power unable to dissipate, gathered into dark clouds in the sky, and in a moment, a downpour fell.

As if heaven itself wept.

Two emperors fought; an emperor fell!

Kong Shi, fallen!
