Chapter 671 - 623: The Final Battle
The first match was between Zhao Luo of Circulation of Heaven Divine City and Wang Lian from Mingji Divine City.
Zhao Luo was just an ordinary Nine Tribulations True God from Circulation of Heaven Divine City, who had lost many times in previous battles with other Divine Cities. Wang Lian, on the other hand, was a disciple from Tai Lin Divine Institute, one of the nine great divine institutes, and his strength was formidable among the Nine Tribulations True Gods.
The clash between the two was devoid of any suspense. Stay connected through novelbuddy
No matter how hard Zhao Luo tried, it took only five moves for Wang Lian to eliminate him from the competition!
In the best of three rounds, Mingji Divine City directly won the first round.
"Brother Ye Chen, Daoist Lin Xiaowan, I am still too weak; we have to rely on you," Zhao Luo said, somewhat dejected, after his loss. The seventeen rounds of Divine City battles had dealt a significant blow to him.
If it weren’t for Ye Chen and Lin Xiaowan, he wouldn’t have been able to fight until this last moment.
Ye Chen patted Zhao Luo on the shoulder and reassured him with a smile.
Lin Xiaowan also said with a light laugh, "The way Mingji Divine City has deployed its troops, they are probably banking on the final battle with Ye Chen. If we intend to win, we can’t afford to lose the next two rounds."
"I’ll go even the score first!"
As she spoke, Lin Xiaowan flew directly into the central area of the battlefield.
Wang Shan, the weakest among Mingji Divine City’s three Nine Tribulation True Gods, was arranged to specifically exhaust the strongest Lin Xiaowan, and at this moment, he, too, flew into the arena.
The result was even quicker than the first battle, with Lin Xiaowan ending the fight in just three moves!
Circulation of Heaven Divine City successfully evened the score, and with a best of three rounds system, both Divine Cities now had one win and one loss each.
This situation was predictable by City Lord Nie of Circulation of Heaven Divine City and God King Wucan of Mingji Divine City once the combatants were decided.
Both knew that the final match, where the dark horse Ye Chen from Circulation of Heaven Divine City fought against Qin Feng, the strongest Nine Tribulation True God of Mingji Divine City, would be crucial.
The side that won would secure the final victory in the battle of the Divine Cities.
When the situation truly reached this moment, even with prior anticipation, City Lord Nie and God King Wucan couldn’t help but become anxious.
"Go Ye Chen," Lin Xiaowan said, looking at Ye Chen with full confidence.
Zhao Luo, standing beside her, also cheered Ye Chen on with a pumped fist.
With a faint smile, Ye Chen flew into the middle of the battlefield.
On the other side, Qin Feng entered the battlefield almost at the same time.
"Ye Chen, it’s quite impressive that you’ve made it this far as a Four Tribulations True God," said Qin Feng, his eyes brimming with intense light as he looked at Ye Chen, "But your victory ends here."
"I, Qin Feng, will defeat you completely! You’ll realize that even if you can fight across realms, you are still far from matching a truly powerful Nine Tribulations True God!"
Hearing Qin Feng’s words, Ye Chen, holding the Purple Lightning Divine Sword, pointed at Qin Feng and said, "Many Nine Tribulations True Gods have said the same to me, however, they either lost or died."
"I wonder which category you fall into."
Ye Chen stood unyielding, directly challenging Qin Feng.
Whoosh!
Seeing this situation unfold, the lords and True Gods on the outer Void Stone Platform were all stirred up inside.
They had learned that Qin Feng was a disciple from the Tai Lin Divine Institute, one of the nine great divine institutes, and they had never before seen a Four Tribulations True God dare to speak to a Nine Tribulations True God disciple of a great divine institute in such a manner.
The lords and True Gods knew the real spectacle was about to begin.
This battle was not only about who was stronger between Ye Chen and Qin Feng, but also about which Divine City—Circulation of Heaven or Mingji—would have the last laugh and secure the ten spots to go to the Nine Suns Ancient Land!
"I bet Qin Feng wins!"
"This time, Mingji Divine City has deliberately used their weakest Nine Tribulations True God to deal with Lin Xiaowan and kept their strongest, Qin Feng, for Ye Chen, just to ensure victory in this final round."
"If Qin Feng can arrange it like this, he must be exceedingly confident about winning the last round!"
"A Nine Tribulations True God who trains at one of the nine great divine institutes inherently possesses exceptional combat strength, even capable of battling Lower God Kings. Although Ye Chen is formidable, he is, after all, just a Four Tribulations True God, and the gap in Divine Power between them is too great. I’m not optimistic about his chances."
Despite being greatly surprised by Ye Chen’s previous battles, most spectators still believed that Qin Feng would win when Ye Chen was actually up against Mingji Divine City’s strongest, Qin Feng.
"Brother Qin Feng, defeat this Ye Chen, crush him completely!" God King Wucan had risen from his meditative pose, his gaze not leaving the battlefield below for a moment.
On the side of Circulation of Heaven Divine City, City Lord Nie could no longer maintain a calm expression: "It’s up to you, Ye Chen."
On the outskirts of the battlefield, the other two Nine Tribulations True Gods from Tai Lin Divine Institute and Zhao Luo from Circulation of Heaven Divine City were already extremely nervous, with only Lin Xiaowan remaining composed.
As everyone watched with varying expressions, Ye Chen and Qin Feng were locked in a fierce confrontation at the center of the arena.
The next moment, the great battle was on the verge of erupting!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Qin Feng was the first to make a move. His vast divine power surged to the sky, and in an instant, he soared into the void. Around him, gigantic fireballs with a diameter of ten meters appeared, numbering in the hundreds!
Each fireball contained earth-shattering energy that burned and cracked the void.

If this combat arena hadn’t been specifically designed for battle, just the release of these massive fireballs might have shattered the very heavens and earth!
Even from a distance, some of the weaker Nine-Tribulation True Gods struggled to endure the terrifying heat emanating from the hundreds of fireballs. Had it not been for their city lords who promptly created light shields to protect them, just the heat alone would have forced these True Gods to flee far away!
"What terrifying power! These fireballs must contain some unfathomable divine arts!" Even with the assistance of their city lords, these Nine-Tribulation True Gods still looked pale and horrified as they watched Qin Feng, surrounded by hundreds of fireballs.
They finally realized the strength of this Nine-Tribulation True God from the Tai Lin Divine Institute.
Clearly, Qin Feng had not used his full strength in the previous battle. Just this one move he was unleashing now vastly exceeded his previous level of combat power!
"Any one of these fireballs could probably annihilate a large mountain!"
"Can Ye Chen withstand such terrifying fireballs?!"
Many turned their gaze towards Ye Chen.
Surprisingly, what shocked them was that Ye Chen, who was closest to the hundreds of fireballs and bore the brunt of the scorching heat, did not move an inch.
It was as if the fireballs had no effect on him whatsoever!
"Heavens."
"How is Ye Chen doing this!"
None of these Nine-Tribulation True Gods could discern Ye Chen’s protective measures, but they were equally astonished to see him withstand such intense heat.
Only the city lords and the truly powerful Nine-Tribulation True Gods in the arena could see what was happening.
"It’s a divine body... This... This seems to be the power only an Undying Divine Body would possess!" A few city lords even exclaimed out loud.
They were perceptive enough to notice that although Ye Chen hadn’t moved at all, there were faint black divine runes imprinting themselves around his body.
These divine runes eerily resembled the marks of the legendary divine body, the Undying Divine Body, spoken of in the Divine Kingdom!
The Undying Divine Body!
Even the city lords, who were Lower God Kings, had never cultivated it!
"Undying Divine Body?" Surrounded by hundreds of fireballs in the void, Qin Feng’s eyes narrowed, "It seems you are so formidable because you have some powerful techniques. But looking at your Undying Divine Body, you haven’t cultivated it deeply. Dream on if you think it can block my ’Fiery Flame God Skills’!"
Qin Feng certainly knew that mere fireballs could not defeat Ye Chen. With a flick of his finger towards Ye Chen in the void, the surrounding hundreds of massive fireballs plummeted towards Ye Chen like a torrential downpour.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
These ten-meter diameter fireballs left cracks and fissures in the void wherever they passed. The sight of hundreds of them striking at Ye Chen was truly astounding.
In this situation, Ye Chen couldn’t just passively take the hits. It was finally his turn to act.
Swish.
Ye Chen abruptly drew out the Purple Lightning Divine Sword. His vast stellar power infused into the sword, and it immediately burst forth with piercing purple rays.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Each purple ray accurately penetrated a giant fireball.
As the purple rays pierced through them, the hundreds of fireballs in the void exploded simultaneously, blossoming like endless flowers of flame in the sky above the combat arena!
Ye Chen’s move turned out to be the "Purple Light," one of the three major forbidden sword moves of the Purple Lightning Divine Sword. With the nascent level Star God Power of the Primordial Chapter energizing it, the "Purple Light" move’s lethality skyrocketed, instantly shattering Qin Feng’s "Fiery Flame God Skills" and their massive fireballs!
Witnessing Ye Chen’s move, Qin Feng’s expression turned solemn. He pointed his finger into the air, and the exploded remnants of the fireballs transformed into a vast, flaming red waterfall that streamed back towards his fingertips. Eventually, they consolidated into a palm-sized bundle of fiery red divine flames.
With another flick of his finger, more bundles of fiery red divine flames flew out from his body.
There were even thousands of these fiery red bundles now.
If a single bundle of divine flames could form a terrifyingly powerful fireball previously, imagine the power when thousands of these bundles were released simultaneously—the strength of the flames soared to inconceivable heights.
Even the protective light shields summoned by many of the Divine City lords were unable to withstand the fire’s power, shattering instantly.
This scene caused many city lords to change their expressions dramatically and, along with the True Gods beside them, they quickly retreated.
They couldn’t comprehend how Qin Feng’s second move, after a mere test of strength, could escalate his combat power to such a frightening degree!
