Chapter 0914: Star King Divine Fist
Xing Haiyuan glared angrily, “I’ve said it—Doumu Immortal Mansion isn’t with me. Wu Zhi, your World of Boundlessness is being too aggressive. How dare you try to kill me?!”
Wu Zhi laughed heartily, “Haha, not dare kill you? So what if we do?!”, then his expression darkened as he shouted, “Doumu Xingzu was once an elder of your Falling Star Palace. You must know the secrets of Doumu Immortal Mansion. It must be in your possession. If you don’t hand it over willingly, I’ll have no choice but to kill you and take it!”
“Hand it over!”
“Give it to us now!”
The other four disciples from the World of Boundlessness also started shouting.
Xing Haiyuan was filled with rage and hatred. Coming to the Abyss of Chaos this time not only failed to yield Doumu Immortal Mansion but also got himself into trouble. Wu Zhi and his men believed he had it, and he was pursued relentlessly, in a desperate situation.
Powers of stars continued to gather within his body. Suddenly, a glimmer of starlight appeared in his hand, and a sharp sword emerged. The sword was entirely made of starlight, resembling a star tree covered with dozens of stars! These stars had been sealed with supreme power and refined into the space of this sword, forming a massive star array.
As Xing Haiyuan infused power into it, the sword trembled and emitted countless beams of starlight, attacking one of the disciples from the World of Boundlessness. The disciple was terrified, about to be hit, when suddenly rings of light formed shields around him, blocking the starlight.
The one who acted was Wu Zhi. With a resounding clang, the air around him surged violently. The swamp below was splashed high into the air, and corpses of ancient swamp beasts floated upward.
“A Great Path Divine Artifact—Yanxing Sword!” Wu Zhi stood high in the air, staring at the sword in Xing Haiyuan’s hand.
Although the Yanxing Sword was a lower-grade Great Path Divine Artifact, even lower-grade ones varied in strength. According to the ranking of Great Path Divine Artifacts, those ranked after 5,000 were considered lower-grade. Yet, there was a huge difference between a lower-grade artifact ranked 5,000th and one ranked 10,000th.
This Yanxing Sword was a lower-grade artifact ranked just above 5,000, already approaching the level of a mid-grade Great Path Divine Artifact.
Pressed back by Wu Zhi, Xing Haiyuan said coldly, “Not bad, Wu Zhi. Even though you’re at the beginning of the sixth era, with the Yanxing Sword, you can’t defeat me!”
Xing Haiyuan was at the peak of the fifth era, just one step away from entering the sixth. With the Yanxing Sword, he could indeed compete with those at the beginning of the sixth era.
Wu Zhi sneered, “You have the Yanxing Sword. Alone, I indeed can’t defeat you. But it seems you’ve forgotten—I’m not alone!” Besides Wu Zhi, the other four disciples of the Wuliang Sect were also highly skilled, each possessing strength beyond five Jiyuan levels.
Xing Haiyuan’s expression darkened.
“Hehe, even if I can’t get the Doumu Immortal Treasury, seizing your Yanxing Sword and presenting it to the sect leader will still be a great achievement!” Wu Zhi continued. After speaking, he leaped into the air, his body surrounded by layer after layer of glowing rings.
The Wuliang Divine Light!
The Wuliang Divine Light of that gray-robed disciple from the Wuliang Sect who had been severely injured by Huang Long was only over a hundred layers strong, but Wu Zhi’s reached 212 layers—nearly a hundred more!
Within those 212 layers of Wuliang Divine Light, countless natural deities emitted immense power, pouring into them as they surged down toward Xing Haiyuan.
Xing Haiyuan’s expression turned grave. Holding the Yanxing Sword, he shouted loudly and swung it upward fiercely.
“Galaxy Evolution, Yanxing Formation!”
From the Yanxing Sword, countless starlight beams burst forth, forming giant stars. Each of these stars was powerful enough to destroy a dimension—there were over 1,300 of them.
A thunderous roar echoed. The numerous stars collided with the Wuliang Divine Light, shaking the heavens and earth. The entire swamp trembled, with countless areas of it flying apart and numerous ancient swamp beasts dying.
Even the surrounding land cracked and collapsed under the force, creating one deep valley after another.
Xing Haiyuan and Wu Zhi both shuddered and stepped back. In this battle, neither could overpower the other—it was a tie.
Seeing this, Wu Zhi snorted coldly.
At that moment, the other four disciples of the Wuliang Sect attacked simultaneously. Blades and swords interwove into a massive web of light that swiftly enveloped Xing Haiyuan.
This enormous light web resembled a four-sided world, blocking all directions. Xing Haiyuan’s expression changed. Swinging his Yanxing Sword, he sent out countless sword beams that shattered the web.
However, just as he dispersed the web, Wu Zhi struck again. With a flash, he appeared in front of Xing Haiyuan, raised his hands to form overlapping vertical palms, and struck repeatedly, leaving countless palm imprints in the sky.
“Tianluo Vertical Palm!” Xing Haiyuan was shocked.
The Tianluo Vertical Palm was one of the supreme arts in the Wuliang Great World. At its highest level, when unleashed, its palm force was so powerful that even if one hid in the endless void, they could not escape the attack.
Xing Haiyuan stepped back and threw a fierce punch.
“Star King Divine Fist!”
Countless forces of stars converged to form a phantom image of the Sacred King of Heaven and Earth. With a punch from the void, it collided with Wu Zhi’s attack. Another thunderous explosion resounded in the sky. Wu Zhi stepped back, his expression changing upon seeing the phantom image of the Sacred King. The Star King Divine Fist, the supreme cultivation technique of the Star King’s Great World, possessed boundless power but was extremely difficult to master. Who would have thought that Xing Haiyuan had learned it?! “Deploy the Infinite Array!” Wu Zhi roared, and along with the other four disciples of the Infinite Gate, they soared into the air, their bodies radiating intense light as layers of divine energy gathered to form a mysterious array pattern. At the center of this array, a phantom image of a sacred king appeared, sitting in meditation in the void, emitting powerful forces. In the distance, Huang Long Tianyan watched everything unfold, considering whether to intervene. If he didn’t act, although Xing Haiyuan had the Yanxing Sword, he would surely be defeated over time. Yet just as Huang Long was deciding whether to intervene, a flash of light appeared, and space fluctuated as another group arrived—six disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect who had been with Long Zhan and others before. Chi Rong was not among them. “Wu Zhi, do you think your Infinite Gate can monopolize such a great opportunity?” Ye Hua sneered. At that moment, Wu Zhi and the others, along with Xing Haiyuan, stopped fighting, resulting in a tripartite standoff. Hearing this, Wu Zhi snorted coldly, “Others fear your Heavenly Dao Sect, but we of the Infinite Gate are not afraid. Ye Hua, you’re not even qualified to share in this!” Just then, Xing Haiyuan soared into the air, suddenly swinging his Yanxing Sword to push back one of the Heavenly Dao Sect disciples, breaking through their defenses and escaping. “Chase him!” Ye Ye and Wu Zhi and the others changed their expressions, ignoring everything else and chasing after him. Xing Haiyuan transformed into a beam of starlight and fled at high speed, heading straight for the mountain range where Huang Long was located.
