Light erupted from both of them, black and gold light fiercely clashing and pushing against each other. Their bodies trembled more violently, and the blood at the corners of their mouths flowed even more freely.
“This, this, I know!”
“This is a Divine War!”
Suddenly, someone from the Blood Witch clan spoke.
Everyone looked at him. He was the third elder of the Blood Witch clan, and besides the Great Witch Master, only two people were above him in status.
His words immediately drew everyone's attention.
“What is a Divine War?”
The third elder took a deep breath, his eyes showing a mix of fear, reverence, and other emotions.
“I read about it in an ancient scripture. I didn't believe in Divine Wars back then because it sounded too exaggerated.”
Everyone looked at the third elder with even more tension, wanting to understand just how exaggerated it was.
Even Su Yingxia wanted to know what was going on.
The third elder looked at everyone, then spoke, “This is an extremely mysterious realm, a state that only divine-level powerhouses can trigger.”
“Because the power of divine-level powerhouses is too terrifying. In ancient times, it was because of these powerful beings that the heavens and earth were shattered. Only after the fall of the gods did the world slowly begin to repair itself.”
“After the repair, the heavens developed a will. This will believed that anyone, regardless of who they were, if they reached the divine level, should be restrained. This is why ancient cultivators ascended to immortality and went to the immortal realm.”
“In reality, this was deliberately done by the will of the human realm, because the power of immortals was too terrifying, capable of destroying mountains and draining seas with a single move, causing the world to be unable to withstand their destruction.”
“Therefore, the will of the human realm deliberately set the rules of Divine War. As soon as anyone reached the divine level and engaged in combat, they would have the possibility of triggering a Divine War.”
The third elder continued his narration, and everyone gradually understood what a "Divine War" was.
Because the destructive power of their kind of combat was too terrifying, the heavens and earth would place them in a mysterious realm the moment they fought.
This realm could be simply described as a void.
They could fight freely in this realm, shattering mountains and collapsing the earth without anyone interfering, because it could be said that they were fighting with their spirits.
However, this kind of combat, though somewhat illusory, could still affect the present world.
Severe injuries sustained in a Divine War would result in corresponding damage to the physical body in the real world.
As was evident now, both the Great Witch Master and Chen Fan were trembling and bleeding from the mouth.
Clearly, they had both sustained injuries in the Divine War, but they had not yet woken up, meaning their battle was not over.
Just as everyone had guessed, Chen Fan and the Great Witch Master were still engaged in a fierce battle.
And it was becoming increasingly violent. In the end, they even exchanged blows, no longer dodging each other's attacks.
They were only focused on a furious battle, and the more intense the fight, the more excited they became.
“Kill!”
Chen Fan’s palm pierced straight through the Great Witch Master’s chest and emerged from his back.
But the Great Witch Master’s palm had also struck Chen Fan’s shoulder, even destroying half of his body.
“Pfft!”
They both spat out a mouthful of blood. In an instant, the wounds on their bodies disappeared.
As divine-level powerhouses, their recovery abilities were absolutely terrifying.
Moreover, they were not truly fighting in the real world at this moment, but in a virtual space.
Their current bodies were virtual spiritual entities, but they were so deeply engrossed in the battle that they were unaware of their state.
“Kill!”
With another roar, Chen Fan’s Tenchao Sword merged with his body, instantly piercing through everything and striking the Great Witch Master.
The Great Witch Master also produced his staff, and a gigantic black skull grasped the Tenchao Sword piercing through his body and began to gnaw at it ferociously.
Neither of them yielded, employing every possible means.
Although they were growing increasingly weary, neither of them gave up. Only when the other fell could this battle end.
“Hahaha, Chen Fan, you are not worthy of taking my life!” the Great Witch Master laughed wildly.
He was astonished by Chen Fan’s resilience. In the previous stages of the battle, he had shattered Chen Fan’s body multiple times, yet this man was like an immortal cockroach.
Wherever he was shattered, he would find a way to strike back, shattering Chen Fan’s body in kind.
The battle between the two transcended the scope of worldly understanding.
They themselves were increasingly astonished with every blow.
Because considering the ferocity of the battle, they should have died countless times over, yet they still possessed the strength to fight.
“Boom!!”
A terrifying explosion resounded. Chen Fan broke free from the black skull and reformed into his human shape in the distance.
He had never imagined that even with his power reaching such a level, he could not truly kill his opponent.
It completely overturned his past perceptions.
Even when facing the Left and Right Divine Palaces of District 13 before, he had never encountered such a situation.
It seemed he would have to unleash even more terrifying and powerful energy.
With the Dragon Inscriptions Compass, his strength had already become so great. What if he were to fuse with the Golden Silk Cicada Robe as well?
With this thought, a golden garment appeared before Chen Fan. It was adorned with many patterns, emanating an ancient aura.
The Great Witch Master’s expression grew solemn. He hadn’t expected this person’s strength to increase further.
It seemed he could no longer hold back. He had to use even more terrifying and powerful energy to suppress, and even kill, his opponent.
