Primordial Star Scripture - Chapter 1023 - 972: Divine Fire vs. Divine Water
The defensive technique, “Thousand Water Shields,” of Ye Chen’s Eternal God Body Water God Pattern can deflect Lei Yuan, indicating that Ye Chen’s Water God Pattern combat power is not inferior to Lei Yuan’s Nine-Thunders Sky Bombarding Battle Body!
When Lei Yuan was blown tens of thousands of feet away by Ye Chen, the people of the Extreme Spirit Clan erupted in amazement.
And among those who have heard of the Eternal God Body’s divine might, their eyes suddenly sparkled: “Heavens, just relying on the defensive technique of the Eternal God Body’s Water God Pattern can withstand Lei Yuan’s strongest attack from the Nine-Thunders Sky Bombarding Battle Body. This Upper God King can likely unleash fifty to sixty percent of the Water God Pattern’s might!”
No wonder these people are shocked.
After all, the Eternal God Body is an extraordinarily powerful divine body even for Sovereigns.
Even though it’s extremely rare for anyone below the Sovereign Realm to cultivate it, it’s definitely not easy to activate its full divine might.
After all, unleashing its full divine power can truly contend with Sovereign powers!
Not to mention activating its full divine might, even activating a fraction of it is already considered impressive.
And Ye Chen now directly activates fifty to sixty percent of the strongest divine might of the Water God Pattern, ranked third among the Five Great Divine Patterns of the Eternal God Body, which is certainly a shocking feat!
What these people don’t know is that Ye Chen has not only cultivated the Eternal God Body’s Water God Pattern but has also mastered the other two Divine Patterns: Earth Divine Pattern and Wind Divine Pattern.
The Wind Divine Pattern is ranked higher than the Water God Pattern among the Five Great Divine Patterns: Earth, Fire, Water, Wind, Chaos.
Back when Ye Chen successfully cultivated the Wind Divine Pattern in the Heavenly God Mountain, he could only unleash a small portion of its might. Even with that, he was capable of battling the extreme combat power of Upper Immortal Divine Venerables.
Now, Ye Chen has made qualitative leaps in his Essence, Qi, and Spirit, especially after harnessing the starry origin power from the second star. His entire life’s level has been elevated significantly.
This elevation in life’s level, even without directly applying it to divine power, greatly enhances Ye Chen’s control over the divine body.
Ye Chen is now capable of driving around forty percent of the Wind Divine Pattern’s might, allowing him to attempt battling a one-star Sovereign.
And as for the Water God Pattern, which is somewhat weaker than the Wind Divine Pattern, Ye Chen can naturally unleash even more might, reaching about sixty percent of its divine power.
And about sixty percent of the Water God Pattern’s divine power is enough for Ye Chen to completely suppress Lei Yuan’s extreme combat power of Upper Immortal Divine Venerables!
As everyone was amazed, Ye Chen, who had used the defensive technique “Thousand Water Shields” to deflect Lei Yuan, the divine light of the Water God Pattern flashed on him and transitioned from defense to attack.
Ye Chen directly charged at Lei Yuan, who was deflected.
At the same time, Ye Chen unleashed the Eternal God Body’s Water God Pattern’s attack technique—Black Origin Water Wave.
Crash! Crash! Crash!
At the instant this attack technique was deployed, the divine pattern light on Ye Chen immediately transformed into black, as thousands of feet of black divine light surged around his body.
In the divine light, as if heavy black water waves were undulating, these black water waves seemed to move with Ye Chen’s divine body and annihilate everything!
As Lei Yuan just stopped his retreating form, Ye Chen, who had activated the Black Origin Water Wave, had already charged to his front.
Lei Yuan directly felt a massive shadow, like a black mountain peak, following Ye Chen’s fierce strike, pressing down directly upon him.
Lei Yuan hurriedly dodged aside.
And Ye Chen’s divine body attack technique’s strike directly hit the ground.
A frightening thing occurred.
Just this single strike, Ye Chen’s divine body strength exploded, directly shattering the ground into a giant pit tens of thousands of feet in diameter!
Even though this special space refined by a nine-star Sovereign has incredible restorative ability, in the moment Ye Chen rose from the ground again to charge at Lei Yuan, the giant pit had already resumed its original form. Yet Ye Chen’s beast-like divine body attack still sent chills down the spines of many present.
Those in the arena with weaker combat power could sense that if they were to bear Ye Chen’s divine body attack, they would likely be crushed into pulp, completely dead from this move!
Everyone took a deep breath.
When they raised their heads to look at Ye Chen again, their gaze towards him was entirely different.
If earlier they had any doubts about Ye Chen’s strength, now they all realized that this Upper God King truly possesses the fabled ability to battle across realms.
Even if not the rumored capability to completely cross into Sovereign-level combat power, it certainly belongs to the true elites within the divine Sovereign-level combat power!
Bear in mind, the further one progresses, the more challenging it is to fight across realms.
True Qi Realm, Spirit Sea Realm, Rotating Pill Realm, Heavenly Saint Realm, True God Realm, God King Realm, Divine Venerable Realm, Sovereign Realm.
Within these realms, battling a realm higher from the Spirit Sea Realm to face a Heavenly Saint is rare but not unheard of across countless Divine Kingdoms.
But reaching the God King Realm, let alone battling a full realm higher into the Divine Venerable Realm and challenging Sovereigns, even battling Immortal Divine Venerables within the Divine Venerable Realm is largely nonexistent across many Divine Kingdoms.
Only powerful Divine Kingdoms like the True Spirit Divine Kingdom have such characters.
Whereas a God King possessing Sovereign-level combat power is truly a standout among the countless God Kings in this universe across Divine Kingdoms.
In this universe, perhaps only in divine kingdom groups like the Moke Ancient Clan and the Netherworld Ancient Clan, which are ranked among the top in the countless Divine Kingdoms of this universe, can there be such a Divine King!
Now, witnessing with their own eyes a formidable Divine King who might not be weaker than a Divine King from the top clans of this universe standing before them, how could the Spirit Clan members not be shaken in mind and spirit?
Amidst the shock, in the sky above, the battle between Ye Chen and Lei Yuan had reached a critical moment.
The two had exchanged hundreds of moves in an instant, and in the vast majority of cases, it was Lei Yuan who was oppressed by Ye Chen, frantically dodging, with few opportunities for direct confrontation between the two.
The Spirit Clan members had already realized that Lei Yuan was no match for the Upper God King before them.
As these people anticipated.
After Ye Chen and Lei Yuan clashed for more than half an incense stick of time, Lei Yuan’s evasive movement technique was completely seen through by Ye Chen, and Lei Yuan gradually struggled to withstand Ye Chen’s repeated attacks.
Finally, when Ye Chen utilized the Eternal God Body’s “Water God Pattern” strike technique “Spiral Water Fury” with a fierce blow, he directly knocked Lei Yuan from the void, smashing him down to the ground, creating a massive crater with a radius of tens of thousands of feet!
Then, Ye Chen pointed his finger, and countless “Water God Pattern” Divine Pattern Lights formed a giant sword measuring ten thousand feet long, extending from Ye Chen’s hand in the void to Lei Yuan’s neck on the ground!
And Lei Yuan was completely powerless to evade!
Defeat.
This meant that if it were a life-and-death struggle, Ye Chen could have killed Lei Yuan, and since this was a sparring match, not meant to harm lives, it also signified that Ye Chen had outright defeated Lei Yuan!
Lei Yuan, however, was a good man.
Losing is losing, and he accepted it with poise.
Lei Yuan looked towards Ye Chen, his gaze shaken, finally saying slowly, “I lost, Daoist friend Jiang Li, I am sincerely convinced of my defeat at your hands.”
Wow.
The outcome of the first battle, although many had anticipated it, still caused an uproar when it happened before their eyes.
After all, many present knew of Lei Yuan’s prowess.
Now, the Upper God King before them had defeated Lei Yuan using only divine body skills, which clearly meant that this Upper God King hadn’t even used his full strength, and his real combat power could only be stronger!
Amidst the excitement, Lei Yuan stepped down, and for the second match, “Yin Meng,” possessing one-star Sovereign Realm combat power from the “Silver-eyed Wing branch,” stepped forward.
“Yin Meng” was tall and burly, and as he looked at Ye Chen, his eyes brimmed with fighting spirit.
He cupped his fists towards Ye Chen, saying, “Daoist friend Jiang Li, take a moment to regulate your breath and recover your depleted divine body combat power, then ‘Yin Meng’ will fight you!”
“In our battle, no matter who wins or loses, I will respect you, Daoist friend, for I possess one-star Sovereign Realm combat power only at the Upper Immortal Divine Venerable Realm, whereas you, Daoist friend, are still an Upper God King yet can fight me, which means that purely in terms of realm difference, you are already stronger than me!”
“Moreover,” Yin Meng looked at Yin Ling’er not far off, “I am extremely grateful to you, Daoist friend, for saving the people of my branch!”
Even before the battle, Yin Meng was extremely courteous to Ye Chen.
This was partly because Ye Chen’s earlier displayed strength convinced him, and also because Ye Chen had rescued people from the Silver-eyed Wing branch.
Seeing Yin Meng’s courtesy, Ye Chen smiled as well.
“Then please wait a moment, Daoist friend, I will recover my energy shortly and come to spar with you.”
After saying that, Ye Chen sat cross-legged in the void and began regulating his breath.
Others thought Ye Chen needed some time to recover, but unexpectedly, before half an incense stick of time had passed, Ye Chen stood up and said to Yin Meng, “Alright, Daoist friend, let’s start the second sparring match.”
“So soon?”
Upon hearing Ye Chen’s words, Yin Meng, waiting on the side, was startled, and everyone else was buzzing with astonishment.
It’s important to note that although Ye Chen was completely dominating in his earlier battle with Lei Yuan, it was by no means not intense. Those present believed that Ye Chen’s depletion must have been significant and that he couldn’t possibly have recovered completely in such a short time.

They didn’t expect that Ye Chen had recovered so quickly.
What they didn’t know was that if it weren’t for fear of scaring them, Ye Chen could have resumed fighting even faster, or even fought without needing recovery.
After all, having only used the “Water God Pattern” to fight for a moment earlier, there was hardly any depletion for someone like Ye Chen with such extraordinary signs of life.
Amongst the shock, seeing that Ye Chen’s aura was indeed at its peak state, Yin Meng didn’t hesitate further.
He took a step forward, coming into the void to face Ye Chen head-on.
And when the battle between the two began, Yin Meng, unlike Lei Yuan earlier, did not directly transform into his Combat True Form, but remained in human form with feathered wings, holding a divine treasure resembling a “Water Droplet” in his hand.
When Yin Meng activated the divine treasure resembling a “Water Droplet,” Ye Chen similarly did not use divine body skills again; he lightly stretched out his palm, and a cluster of Divine Fire directly appeared in his palm!
