Chapter 2: Battle (1)
His face contorted with anger, and it was evident that he was seething with rage.
The cultivators exchanged glances, taken aback by what had transpired and struggling to believe it.
Feeling the urgency of the situation, they knew they had no time to waste.
Without a moment's hesitation, they unsheathed their weapons and lunged toward their intended target.
Their comrade's loss fueled them with determination to defeat Chen Tian as quickly as possible.
|Clanggg|
|Clashhh|
During the intense battle, the clash of metal against metal echoed through the air as the cultivators faced Chen Tian.
Despite possessing a tremendous cultivation level, Chen Tian found himself at a disadvantage, having sustained severe injuries and having fought for so long.
With little energy remaining, he struggled against the other cultivators, who battled with unwavering determination, further adding to his predicament.
"Darn it! I've got no other option but to use it!" Chen Tian contemplated as he skillfully dodged a spear aimed at him.
Initially hesitant to resort to the forbidden technique, he now realized it was the sole means to conclude this exhausting battle.
Taking a deep breath, he released the power he had been withholding.
"Khhh!!"
All of a sudden, a powerful surge of energy emanated from his body, creating a forceful pressure wave that sent his opponents staggering backward and even cracked the air beneath him.
He had reached a degree of strength he had never known he could achieve.
Chen Tian's celestial spark inside his body began to radiate brightly, resembling the rise of a sun from within his body.
The pressure surrounding him intensified as his celestial spark grew even brighter.
He felt a surge of strength coursing through his veins, making him confident that he could effortlessly kill an opponent several realms higher than him.
However, he knew he couldn't sustain this heightened state for long because he was depleting his Celestial spark to enhance his power.
Chen Tian understood the urgency of finishing the fight before his Celestial spark faded away.
He concentrated all his energy on his sword and swung it with unparalleled speed and precision, crating a moon-like arc that sliced through the air with grace and power.
The arc of his blade shimmered, leaving a trail of celestial energy in its wake.

"Ah!!"
"N-No!!"
Several cultivators died on the spot after the arc of his blade cut through them effortlessly.
As the other cultivators sensed the immense pressure emanating from his body, fear gripped them, and they hastily fled.
They realized that Chen Tian had done something they would never have dared to attempt themselves.
Burning your spark is akin to a death sentence for a cultivator.
When a cultivator reaches the immortal realm and forms his own spark, every aspect of his being, from his soul and cells to his Qi, becomes interconnected with the spark.
If the spark is destroyed, the cultivator will perish along with it.
Chen Tian knew depleting his Celestial spark was risky but necessary for victory.
He desperately wished to prevent the Chaotic Piece from falling into the hands of those dogs.
The overwhelming strength emanating from Chen Tian frightened even the other cultivators, causing them to retreat from the area. He had exerted every effort to eliminate them.
"Even if I were to die today, I would take every single one of you down with me! Prepare for your demise!"
Chen Tian declared boldly, his words and actions displaying an unwavering resolve to eliminate them.
It was evident that he had nothing left to lose and was willing to go to any length to accomplish his mission.
Chen Tian's eyes blazed with fierce anger, sending shivers down their spines. The atmosphere grew heavy with the weight of his murderous intent.
|Bam|
Swiftly moving his sword, Chen Tian closed in on a nearby cultivator, catching him off guard with the sudden attack.
The cultivator reacted swiftly, countering Chen Tian's attack with a powerful blast of energy.
The force of the attack sent the cultivator flying back several feet, his sword arm tingling from the impact.
Despite this setback, the cultivator remained undeterred, quickly regaining his footing and diving back into the intense battle.
Chen Tian moved gracefully and with the precision of a seasoned warrior, effortlessly dodging and passing through the cultivator's attacks.
In a rapid succession of strikes, Chen Tian delivered a powerful blow to the cultivator's chest, forcing him to stumble backwards in pain.
Seizing the opportunity presented by his opponent's momentary weakness, Chen Tian followed up with a flurry of lightning-fast strikes, his sword emitting a brilliant glow of Sword Qi.
The cultivator fought back with all his might, but it was clear that he was outmatched. Chen Tian's skill and speed were simply too great.
With a final swing of his sword, Chen Tian struck the cultivator down, his body falling lifeless to the ground.
Breathing heavily, Chen Tian gazed at the battlefield, his eyes scanning for the other cultivators.
|Clangg|
A sword suddenly appeared from behind, aimed at Chen Tian's head, while a cultivator attacked him from the rear.
The sword sliced through the air with a loud clang, sparks scattering in every direction.
Chen Tian's expression remained composed as he skillfully deflected the attack, twisting his wrist to redirect the sword's course.
The attacking cultivator was momentarily taken aback, his eyes widening in astonishment.
Chen Tian took advantage of the momentary opening, lunging forward with his own sword.
The two weapons clashed together with a deafening crash, causing the ground to shake beneath their feet. Chen Tian exerted all his strength to push his opponent back.
The two opponents circled each other warily, eyeing each other for any opening.
Chen Tian feinted to the left, then darted to the right, narrowly avoiding a swipe from the cultivator's blade.
As a response, Chen Tian thrust his sword forward, forcing the cultivator to use his own sword to block the attack.
|Clangg|
The force of the attack sent vibrations through the cultivator's arm, making him stagger back multiple steps.
Chen Tian saw the opening and swiftly lunged forward, targeting the cultivator's chest with his sword.
His blade sliced through the air with deadly precision, piercing the cultivator's body.
In a swift strike, Chen Tian aimed directly at his opponent's Celestial spark, shattering it into a thousand pieces.
"Noo!!"
The cultivator let out a blood-curdling scream as the spark was destroyed, his body writhing in agony before collapsing to the ground and blood pouring from his mouth..
Chen Tian didn't watch as the cultivator's life force slowly faded away.
Summoning his resolve, he leaped into the air, moving so swiftly that afterimages trailed behind him. He began launching attacks at every cultivator within his sight.
The clash was intense, and time seemed to stretch on endlessly.
Eventually, half of the cultivators lay lifeless on the ground.
As they prepared for the next attack, the remaining cultivators, whose faces were covered in blood and sweat, took deep breaths to steady themselves.
"Stop running and prepare for defense! Once his Celestial spark is consumed, he will become a waste. All we have to do is waste time!" One of them shouted.
The others nodded in agreement, taking up their defensive positions as they waited for Chen Tian to make his next move.
'Damn it! I don't have much time,' Chen Tian cursed under his breath, feeling the weight of the situation bear down on him. He thought urgently, knowing that he needed to act quickly and make a decision.
"It seems I can't eliminate them all," he mumbled to himself, the weight of his resignation evident in his words.
He furiously contemplated a plan, his mind racing as he carefully assessed his options. At last, a faint glimmer of an idea emerged.
"It's all his fault," Bitter thoughts consumed him as he blamed the traitor for his current predicament.
Despite his dire circumstances, he refused to let that traitor win. "Even if I die, I'll make sure he pays for what he's done," he resolved.
With grim determination, he prepared himself for whatever he was about to do.
"Ahhhh!!"
The energy inside him surged as he unleashed a powerful attack on his enemy, knowing that this could be his last chance to avenge himself.
"Heaven Thunderbolt Barrage!"
Boom
The sky transformed into a vivid and brilliant shade of blue, a stark contrast to the gloomy gray it had been only moments before.
Jagged lightning bolts sliced through the air, illuminating the area with an intense, white-hot glow.
As Chen Tian's enemies stood there, utterly stunned and defenseless, their faces were etched with a mix of shock and fear.
Sweat beaded on their foreheads, and their eyes widened in disbelief at the sheer force of the attack.
On the other hand, Chen Tian looked calm and composed, with a determined look on his face. As he got ready for the next part of his plan, his muscles tensed up.
He knew he had to act quickly and decisively if he wanted to win.
|Bam|
As Chen Tian's thunderbolts came at them, the cultivators sprang into action and tried to defend themselves as quickly as possible.
One of the cultivators promptly yelled, "Protect yourself!" and swiftly channeled his energy into a formidable defensive technique.
Despite their utmost efforts, several cultivators couldn't evade the bolts in time and were struck by the thunder.
Among them, a young woman was caught off guard and let out a painful scream as the lightning seared through her body.
The intense heat of the lightning burned her body to ash in an instant, leaving nothing but a smoldering pile where she once stood.
The other cultivators watched in horror, caught off guard by the sudden attack. They struggled to defend themselves against the torrent of lightning strikes.
As the dust cleared, they looked up to see that Chen Tian had disappeared.
