Starting With 100 Million Lives-Chapter 540: A Series of Moves as Fierce as a Tiger

Li Guang the Demon Emperor was almost in despair.

This is impossible!

It doesn't make any sense, does it?

This isn't the first time he's used this method to kill.

Last time he split a late-stage Quasi-Emperor, and back then he just split the opponent into a Third Grade Immortal King, and the opponent's Immortal Body exploded directly.

That was just an ordinary late-stage Quasi-Emperor's Immortal Soul.

Now the Immortal Soul of this kid in front of him is much stronger than that late-stage Quasi-Emperor back then.

Logically, when split into a Ninth-grade Immortal King, he should have exploded.

"Come on, give it some more effort!"

Brother Cheng was still cheerfully cheering him on.

"One more time and I'm done for!"

"I'm really about to explode, really!"

In fact, if Li Guang the Demon Emperor had split Jiang Cheng in some other aspect, he might have truly been able to kill him little by little.

But unfortunately, he picked the wrong target.

Jiang Cheng's Immortal Soul was originally normal.

But after absorbing those hundred thousand ghosts, he had 'died' once.

Afterward, the system resurrected him.

Those hundred thousand ghosts were beyond Ten Thousand Ancient, that quality was just too high.

Even when his Immortal Soul Realm was just at the Daoist Palace Realm at that time, Brother Cheng couldn't possibly withstand it.

Even if resurrected, he would be burst open and die again.

So, to keep him alive, the system had to do some small behind-the-scenes work.

It made Brother Cheng, who was only at the Daoist Palace Realm at the time, perfectly match that extraordinary Immortal Soul.

It was from that point onwards that his Immortal Soul became somewhat different from others…

To put it bluntly, it didn't require Cultivation Realm to bear it.

Even if Li Guang the Demon Emperor lowered him to a mortal, he could still live just fine.

He could even continue to use the supernatural power of the Immortal Soul.

If this truth were revealed, Li Guang the Demon Emperor would probably be so pissed he'd spit blood.

After all his hard work, it was all in vain?

Unfortunately, he didn't know.

He even suspected Jiang Cheng of doing it on purpose.

Purposely cheering himself on, mocking himself, actually acting, to cover up his weakness.

How could he fall for that?

He kept forcibly trying to split Brother Cheng.

Soon, Brother Cheng fell from the Saint Tier back to Ascending to Saint.

The Quasi-Emperor Demon Kings on the rule projection were dumbfounded.

Every additional split of a rule greatly increased in difficulty.

They usually manage to split a few times, maybe a dozen times, giving it their all.

And now, hadn't Li Guang the Demon Emperor already split him almost 50 times?

That's madness!

Not to mention a mid-stage Quasi-Emperor, even an Immortal Emperor split like this 50 times would be dead by now!

"Don't give up!"

"I'm really about to collapse..."

Apart from his Cultivation Realm dropping, Brother Cheng didn't feel much of anything.

But now he couldn't do much, just move his mouth to add a little 'participation' in the 'battle.'

"Almost there, don't stop halfway!"

"Don't do anything to regret later."

"Maybe next time, you'll successfully kill me."

His sarcastic remarks left the surrounding immortals speechless.

Dude, you're the one being split.

Can't you show more care for yourself?

Li Guang the Demon Emperor was already exhausted and out of breath, but as Brother Cheng said, maybe next time he'd succeed?

He firmly believed Jiang Cheng was just holding on, just hiding.

There were even signs of smoke coming out from the top of his head, which is a very rare phenomenon for a Demon Emperor.

This level of dedication prompted Brother Cheng to applaud.

"Good, good, everyone take note."

"This spirit of never giving up deserves a big thumbs up!"

On the last split, Li Guang the Demon Emperor himself was already dizzy and dazed.

He indeed embodied this rule, but that didn't mean he could use it without limit.

Moreover, every rule eventually has its own limit.

This time, Brother Cheng was reduced to the Daoist Palace First Layer.

But alas, he was still perfectly fine.

Poof...

Li Guang the Demon Emperor spewed a mouthful of blood, and the Immortal Treasure above him could no longer be maintained, dropping out of thin air.

With a slight crack, this Law Space shattered.

Brother Cheng's Cultivation Realm Avatars, which had been split dozens of times, suddenly regained their freedom and returned to him.

His aura instantaneously transformed from the Daoist Palace First Layer back to mid-stage Quasi-Emperor.

He didn't need any adaptation period at all.

After all, these Immortal Power Realms were originally cultivated by him.

And the opposing Li Guang the Demon Emperor swayed, while overusing the rules led to some backlash.

How could Jiang Cheng not seize this opportunity?

He immediately summoned 49 Rule Brands, and simultaneously, his Immortal Soul left his body!

"No..."

Li Guang the Demon Emperor forcibly attempted to utilize the splitting rules to obstruct.

But unfortunately, just to sustain the Law Space and continuously split him earlier, his Immortal Soul had long been overdrawn.

The splitting rule only broke through the first ten Rule Brands.

Soon, his exhausted Immortal Soul was smacked half-dead by Brother Cheng.

With no assistance from the Immortal Soul, he could no longer block the Rule Brands.

"No..."

The dignified Demon Emperor was shattered to pieces on the spot!

Even by the end of the battle, Brother Cheng himself found it a bit unreal.

Did he just win?

He originally thought he'd be killed, then the system would activate its resurrection skill.

Yet the opponent's fierce actions didn't kill him, instead turned himself into a weakling.

Honestly, if Li Guang the Demon Emperor hadn't split the wrong thing, Brother Cheng definitely wouldn't have been his match.

Even without using the Dharma Realm, just purely with rules and Immortal Soul face-off, the outcome was uncertain.

Jiang Cheng wouldn't have won so effortlessly.

Li Guang the Demon Emperor essentially played himself to death.

As stunned as Brother Cheng was, how could others be any less shocked?

A Demon Emperor just died like that?

And it was one of the old-brand Demon Emperors of the Celestial Escape Pavilion!

Everyone present had a hard time digesting this information.

The death of a Demon Emperor is an earth-shattering event no matter where it happens.

Moreover, the one who killed him was just a mid-stage Quasi-Emperor, not even an expert of the same tier.

Most people present understood how Brother Cheng managed to do it.

Li Guang the Demon Emperor just failed to split him to death, while exhausting himself.

But why wasn't he split to death?

That's the truly terrifying aspect upon closer contemplation!

As a result, Brother Cheng once again gained Shock Value.

Unfortunately, there weren't many Quasi-Emperors here, so he only garnered several million Merits in the end.

"Hahaha..."

Cang Ji was the first to regain his senses, hurrying up to approach.

"Yet another victory, as expected from you!"

"Never thought a Demon Emperor would die like this."

"Only you could've done it!"

Brother Cheng, smiling, collected a set of Tier Nine Immortal Armor and Immortal Treasure from Li Guang the Demon Emperor, then waved his hand.

"Calm down, just basic operations, you should be used to it."

Cang Ji twitched his mouth.

Indeed, that's the third Emperor Realm you've slain recently.

But really, who could remain calm about this kind of thing?

The immortals on both sides were practically dumbstruck with fear.

The Quasi-Emperor Demon Kings on the rule projection quickly left, voluntarily admitting defeat.

Who would dare to continue fighting?

Meanwhile, on the speed rule side, there was a burst of cheers.
