“BOOM!” A destructive might radiated forth. Jia Huangtian was completely angered. The sky was dyed crimson as the clouds turned red, the bloody glow covering everything.
The Saber-Sword Immortal King insulted him once again, saying why would he be bothered about a demonic bastard?
The phoeroc race is one of the strongest demonic races in the desolate mountains. As for Jia Huangtian, he was a royal within the clan. This time, as the demons left the desolate mountains to invade the immortal realms, he had a heart filled with ambition, wanting to stand at the very top. How could he endure being insulted by the Saber-Sword Immortal King again and again?
“Everyone retreat, give us more space for the battlefield.” On the war chariot, that supreme character from the sun gold race waved his hand. In an instant, the spectators who were already very far away, retreated even further. As for those supreme peak characters, each of them occupied a location, they also stepped further back as their auras permeated their surroundings. As someone who stands at the absolute peak, even if the aftershocks were powerful, it wouldn’t be able to injure them.
The entire sky was painted crimson, but there were dazzling flashes of golden light. Jia Huangtian stared at Qin Wentian as he spoke, “Right now, you are getting more and more arrogant. I’ll make it so that you die a miserable death.”
“Many people have said the exact same thing to this seat before. But now, this seat is still alive and well, yet they have already reported to hell.” Qin Wentian calmly stared at Jia Huangtian. His body also slowly rose up in the air, exuding an elegance and carefreeness. There were no hints of fear or nervousness from him at all.
“You killed the experts from my phoeroc race. After I kill you, I shall finish off everyone that has a connection to you, sparing no one at all.” Jia Huangtian unleashed his killing intent. Boundless golden lights transformed into sharp swords, falling from the air, wanting to pierce Qin Wentian. Terrifying rumbling sounds rang out as a sensation of sharpness engulfed the area. Ordinary peak-stage immortal kings would be killed in a single instant. From this, one could already tell how terrifying Jia Huangtian was.
But when these attacks landed on Qin Wentian, they were basically unable to injure his body of laws at all.
“Just with this sentence from you, the City of Ancient Emperors is already destined to be your burial place.” Qin Wentian domineeringly replied.
“Very well, I heard that your illusionary arts are unrivalled and you killed the Yama King with it. Just make your move.” Jia Huangtian stood at his original location, waiting for Qin Wentian to unleash his illusionary arts. He wasn’t afraid at all.
“The City of Ancient Emperors only knows that this seat killed the Yama King using illusionary arts. All of you believed that I’m only proficient in that? If it wasn’t for the negation effect of the Yama King’s asura prison, I wouldn’t have bothered to use illusions to kill him. You are so arrogant. This seat can effortlessly kill a demonic bastard like you, there’s no need for me to use any illusions at all.” Qin Wentian’s voice was still calm but his words contained an arrogance that stirred the anger of the demons from the desolate mountains. Although they were fighting against Qin Wentian, all the demons let out bellows of rage. They wanted Jia Huangtian to immediately kill him.
Jia Huangtian pressed his palm forward in the air, instantly causing the surrounding energies to churn wildly as boundless law energy gathered before his palm. The law energy transformed into numerous resplendent sharp swords and with a wave of his hand, the swords were like flowing water, instantly combining with the swords formed from his feathers as they flooded the area.
The holy vajra will of Qin Wentian was released. His entire body gleamed with a golden light, akin to a golden buddha body. When the sharp swords blasted into him, his body trembled but the impact wasn’t able to force him to take a step back. He continued calmly staring at Jia Huangtian as he spoke, “These lousy attacks, stop unleashing them to throw face. Even I feel embarrassed for you. Back then, I allowed the Yama King to unleash his ultimate attack first within nine seconds. However, because he was too arrogant, he refused to do so and ended up being killed by this seat. Do you want to follow in his footsteps?”
“Since you wish to court death so much, I shall grant you your wish.” Jia Huangtian roared. With a wave of his hand, a burst of destruction flooded the area before him as a new space manifested. This space was different from the one earlier, it was a separate world that sought to swallow Qin Wentian within.
“Seems like you have also received the inheritance of the spatial dao element.” Qin Wentian calmly spoke. As the sound of his voice faded, Jia Huangtian blasted out an attack which transformed into the sharp claws of a desolate beast, tearing through the void, grabbing hold of Qin Wentian. After that, a powerful energy ripped him through the void, bringing him forcefully into the separate space of destruction.
“What a powerful spatial ability.” The spectators were all stunned. As expected of the supreme character of the phoeroc race, terrifying to the extreme indeed. Qing`er and Jun Mengchen were among the spectators too and they were somewhat worried for Qin Wentian. Although they knew Qin Wentian was very powerful, his opponent was after all, also someone who stood at the peak. Their hearts weren’t able to be as calm as water.
“Since this is the case, it’s all the more clear that I shouldn’t spare you.” A killing intent flashed in Qin Wentian’s eyes. Qing`er also comprehended the spatial dao element. Since this is the case, regardless of whether he had a grudge with Qing`er or not, they are already destined to be enemies.
“BREAK!” Qin Wentian spoke. His sword holy will flowed forth, destroying the spatial claw that grabbed on to him. With a flash of his silhouette, he soared further up into the sky.
Jia Huangtian’s eyes were cold to the extreme. His figure vanished with the speed of lightning, showing the speed of the sky rocs. This was one of his innate abilities.
“Space lock!”
A fearsome burst of killing intent gushed out. The space Qin Wentian was in, suddenly froze. His body froze along with the space as well.
“The strongest innate ultimate art of Jia Huangtian.” The spectators felt their hearts trembling as they saw this scene. If they wanted to contend against Jia Huangtian, they had to be able to deal with his innate abilities, The human cultivators among the spectators could feel how much pressure Qin Wentian was in. Especially so for demonic beasts, some of their innate abilities were too powerful. After the descent of the Demongod Mountain, many demonic beasts achieved an evolution, as they awoke inheritance memories, granting them even more powerful innate abilities and ultimate techniques.
After that, Jia Huangtian even obtained the inheritance of the spatial dao element. His proficiency with spatial laws rose at an incredible speed. Right now, along with his understanding in spatial law, when he used his ultimate innate technique, he was able to freeze space itself, trapping Qin Wentian there.
“Senior brother!” Jun Mengchen’s gaze flashed. Such a powerful ultimate heart caused his heartbeat to involuntarily quicken. Qing`er’s face was pale as well. The energy she was cultivating, was none other than spatial energy. She knew very well how terrifying this technique was. It was definitely able to threaten Qin Wentian’s life.
“Incinerate.” Jia Huangtian pointed his finger at the frozen space. At this moment, phoenix flames landed on that patch of frozen space, seeping into it, wanting to set Qin Wentian ablaze. The instant the phoenix flames came in contact with Qin Wentian’s body, the power of the flames seeped inside his inner organs, as he became a burning torch.
“BOOM!” The powerful holy wills of Qin Wentian finally aided him to break apart the frozen space. However, his body was still covered in the fearsome flames.
“What a terrifying Jia Huangtian. These supreme characters who stand at the peak, all of them are extraordinary indeed. Although the Saber-Sword Immortal King is powerful and had once used his illusionary arts to kill the Yama King, he would most probably still die today.” Many people mused silently.
“Saber-Sword Immortal King, a king of a generation. Will he die like that simply from a clash among those who stand at the peak?”
“If the Saber-Sword Immortal King dies here, his friends wouldn’t be able to escape death too.”
As for the enemies of the Saber-Sword Immortal King, all of them had excitement on their faces. Finally, was Jia Huangtian going to finish off the Saber-Sword Immortal King? The Saber-Sword Immortal King has been arrogant for far too long. It was about time for him to die.
“RUMBLE!” The terrifying flames exploded, rising to the sky. Qin Wentian’s body appeared in the vision of everyone and at this moment, his body of laws, seemed to be completely burned. The heat from the flames seeped into his body, destroying his organs but a few moments later, the flames all actually started to recede, gradually fading away.
He stared straight at Jia Huangtian, his sword intent rising to the sky, forming a sword qi river around him that slashed out with lightning speed. Jia Huangtian dodged with lightning speed, directly vanishing. The sword qi river tore the world asunder as a wide path was opened up in the void, stirring the hearts of the crowd, filling them with extreme shock.
“What great recovery, what a powerful attack.” Everyone sighed with admiration as they stared at Qin Wentian. His eyes shone with a bright light and the flames burning him had completely disappeared. It was like Jia Huangtian’s earlier phoenix flames had no effect.
“The Saber-Sword Immortal King has an undying body. It’s very difficult to kill him. Someone spoke.”
“That’s right. Forty years ago when he was at the mid-stage immortal king realm, he had a battle against the Yama King. He survived due to having an undying physique. I personally witnessed that battle.”
Someone from the crowd spoke, causing the surrounding people to exclaim. What a demon-level figure. He even had an undying physique.
“Don’t forget what sort of character Jia Huangtian is. He has both the bloodlines of golden-winged rocs and the phoenixes. He should be able to achieve the nirvana rebirth effect as well. This battle, he would still die for sure.”
“That’s right. The space locking ability is too perverse. Who can defend against it? Even Qin Wentian wasn’t able to avoid being frozen earlier. It was just that the phoenix flames were too weak to burn through his undying physique.”
The surrounding experts analysed. As expected of a battle of supreme characters at the peak. When it erupted, the might displayed shocked every one of the spectators.
“Saber-Sword Immortal King, you can’t even touch me. Do you regret things now?” Jia Huangtian’s figure soared through the air, staring at Qin Wentian as he spoke.
Qin Wentian inclined his head. There was a calm smile on his face. “You are much more intelligent compared to the Yama King. At the very least, you understood that you have to go all out at the beginning and use your true power. In this case, although you can’t change the ending, you would be able to prolong the moments of your life.”
Jia Huangtian stiffened. A moment later, he started laughing uproariously. As he laughed, his figure vanished once more as a terrifying energy erupted towards Qin Wentian, the space being locked down once more.
Boundless law energy radiated around him. He stretched his palms out, blasting them forward. In an instant, fearsome gigantic imprints of law slammed out, each containing a supreme law energy. Cracking sounds echoed in the empty void as the space that was about to be completely frozen, cracked apart. The remnants of the spatial energy remaining flowed ceaselessly, akin to a spatial storm.
“He broke it?” The eyes of everyone flashed with shock. The art of locking down space was neutralized by the Saber-Sword Immortal King. Even Jia Huangtian himself stiffened, there was a puzzled look in his eyes. How strong were those palm attacks exactly?
“No matter how strong an innate technique is, they are ultimately unleashed through one’s law energy. As long as your proficiency over law energy is stronger than your opponent’s attack, there’s nothing that cannot be countered.” Qin Wentian calmly replied, as though he was speaking of an insignificant matter.
He had cultivated and comprehended many things in the City of Ancient Emperors for many years, using his emperor’s fate to comprehend the radiance cascaded down by several dao elements yet he refused to accept the dao element completely. It wasn’t a waste of time, his senses towards law energy was much deeper and clearer than before and had already reached an extraordinary level.
