Chapter 1427 The Power of the Copy

"Huff... huff... huff..."

Ye Yuan's breathing grew heavier and heavier, and his fight against the other self became increasingly difficult.

The two had been locked in fierce combat in the Death Training Space for three days and three nights. Even though Ye Yuan's divine essence consumption was minimal, he was now on the verge of collapse.

After all, his opponent was none other than himself!

This opponent was too powerful. Over the past three days, Ye Yuan had used almost every trick he had, yet he could not overcome the other.

"Haha, why are you getting weaker? Seeing another self so weak is truly embarrassing! So... die!"

The other Ye Yuan wore a mocking smile, his strength increasing with each blow.

From an evenly matched start, Ye Yuan was now reduced to barely defending himself.

The other Ye Yuan aimed every strike at Ye Yuan's vital points, putting him in constant danger.

"Hehe, in this Death Training Space, my divine essence is inexhaustible. But yours will dwindle as the battle goes on. Your ultimate fate can only be death!" the other Ye Yuan laughed loudly.

This replicated Ye Yuan showed no mercy toward the original.

The space's mission for him was to kill the original!

In this space, the copy's divine essence was continuously restored.

Although Ye Yuan absorbed the surrounding spiritual energy during battle, his recovery speed was clearly no match for the copy's.

Thus, the longer the fight dragged on, the more dangerous it became for Ye Yuan!

Outside the space, Wuchen watched Ye Yuan with intense concern, his fists clenched tightly.

He knew that Ye Yuan had reached an extremely critical point.

If Ye Yuan could not find a way to defeat himself, he would surely die inside.

Once the Death Training was initiated, even he could not stop it.

Wuchen knew that Ye Yuan was facing the greatest challenge of his life.

Because his opponent was none other than himself.

This was the terrifying aspect of the Death Training Space.

No matter how strong you were, without the determination to overcome yourself, you could never walk out of here.

"Ye Yuan, hang in there! Don't let me down!"

Wuchen's face was almost contorted, showing the tension he felt inside.

He had proposed such a dangerous training method because he knew how difficult it was for Ye Yuan to create the second layer of the Chaos True Scripture.

If Ye Yuan could not break through himself, he might never find that opportunity.

Even if he did, it would be years later.

By then, Mu Lingxue would have long been dead.

Ye Yuan now needed immense strength.

He needed to seize the Longevity Heavenly Soul Stone for Mu Lingxue!

Though this method was perilous, it was the most effective way to squeeze out potential.

When people faced their true selves and were pushed to the limit, they would do everything possible to break through and seek a way out.

However, very few could achieve it!

In fact, this Death Training Space was an unfinished creation of the Immortal Forest Heavenly Sovereign.

To perfect the Death Training Space, the Immortal Forest Heavenly Sovereign had captured many people for experiments.

He hoped to find a method that could both extract potential and reduce mortality.

Among them were Return to Void Realm martial artists, Divine Lord Realm experts, and even... Heavenly God Realm experts!

In total, there were probably over a hundred.

But in the end, no one came out of the Death Training alive!

Those who could cultivate to the Heavenly God Realm were all geniuses among geniuses.

Yet even such geniuses could not overcome themselves.

The danger of this training method was thus evident!

When Wuchen proposed this method, he was deeply conflicted inside.

But having spent time with Ye Yuan, he had been somewhat influenced by him.

On one hand, Ye Yuan's talent was truly formidable.

On the other hand, Ye Yuan's spirit of going all out had subtly affected him.

"Swish!"

A sword edge sliced through Ye Yuan's clothes, cutting into his flesh.

Wuchen's expression changed—Ye Yuan was starting to get injured!

This was a bad omen, indicating that Ye Yuan's divine essence reserves could no longer sustain the battle.

Yet the battle had to continue.

"Swish!"

"Swish!"

"Swish!"

...

Wound after wound opened on Ye Yuan's body!

"Hahaha, you're too weak! The weak should not exist in this world! Give up!"

The copy's sword cutting into the original seemed to bring him bloodthirsty pleasure.

Ye Yuan's divine essence was increasingly depleted, and his physical strength was nearing its limit.

Fighting oneself placed an enormous burden on the body!

At this moment, Ye Yuan felt he could barely even hold his sword together.

"So tired... Is this... the end?" The voice echoed in Ye Yuan's mind.

...

"Go fetch Ye Yuan immediately, no matter what he's doing! If I don't see him within an hour, you... will face the consequences!"

In the main hall of the White Night Sacred Palace, Qingfeng sat in the palace lord's seat, his face filled with anger.

This Supreme Elder of the White Night Sacred Palace had quite the airs—he was in seclusion even when he, a divine envoy, had arrived!

Bai Chen's expression changed as he said, "Divine Envoy, the Supreme Elder only recently entered seclusion; he is likely at a critical point in his cultivation. It would be inappropriate to call him out now. How about... you stay at the White Night Sacred Palace for a few days? When the Supreme Elder emerges, Bai Chen will inform you immediately. What do you think?"

"Bang!"

Before Bai Chen could finish, Qingfeng waved his hand and sent him flying with a palm strike.

"Ugh!"

Qingfeng was at the peak of the Insight Heaven realm; Bai Chen's strength was nothing in comparison.

If not for Bai Chen being the palace lord, that strike might have killed him outright.

This divine envoy was truly arrogant!

"Do you think the Divine Palace's orders are a joke? I said one hour, so it's one hour! Could it be... that this so-called Supreme Elder is really an invader, as the rumors say? Hmm?"

Qingfeng's eyes widened, sending a chill through everyone's hearts.

Once such a charge was made and confirmed, it would be a disaster!

Bai Chen struggled to his feet, glaring at Qingfeng with fury.

He was about to lose his temper, but Moyun forcibly held him back.

Bai Xiu then stepped forward, cupping his hands to Qingfeng and said, "Divine Envoy, these rumors are absolutely false! They were likely spread by those from the Qiuyu Sacred Palace. Please investigate carefully! Supreme Elder Ye Yuan has acted many times, and his strength has never been rejected by the Heavenly Dao. He cannot possibly be an invader!"

Qingfeng gave him a cold look and said, "I have come on orders from above, bringing the Heavenly Fortune Shrine. Whether he is an invader or not, we will know with a test! Now, do not make me repeat myself. I want to see him within one hour!"
