God Emperor - Chapter 1948
Chapter 1948: Breaching the War Fortress
No one said a word. With Xuanyuan Liekong and Zhang Yuan leading the way, seven other top fighters from the Celestial Court lunged out of the warship to meet the Shenzis and Shennus of the Deathkin.
Both sides had selected their opponents and could not wait to fight.
This place had become a dead land. No matter how brutal the battle became, it would not turn any worse. Even if the entire Xianji Mountain sank, it would be okay.
Of course, Xianji Mountain would not be easily destroyed as a land of awakening.
Apparently, no one could really win the battle in a short time.
Like what Zheng Yuan said, he needed Zhang Ruochen and the eight companies of soldiers of his men to attack Xianji Mountain while they would hold off those nasty figures of the Deathkin.
In front of the war fortress, Zhang Ruochen and Huo Nu had exchanged tens of blows, and none of them could get advantage over the other.
Meanwhile, Ji Fanxin and Qi Yang were in a standoff, not making their moves.
Facing a Deathkin monster like Qi Yang, even Ji Fanxi was feeling intimidated.
A voice called out from out of nowhere all of a sudden. “Let me give you a hand, Fairy!”
A shadow flew from the horizon and planted like a javelin beside Ji Fanxin.
It was a very good-looking young man, in his early twenties, wearing an expensive-looking, sapphire-blue robe with a jasper hanging around his waist. The most eye-catching part of him was his pair of sapphire-blue eyes, clear and penetrating, as if there were two drops of ocean in there.
“It has been a long time, Fairy. You are still as beautiful as ever. I heard you were in Northern Region, and so rushed over from Southern Region to meet you. And here I am.” The man in an expensive rope had a bright smile on his face.
Qi Yang’s eyes flashed in a cold light as he sneered. “Are you trying to play hero here? Those who did this stupid thing in front of me last time had all died!”
The man frowned with a grim look in his eyes. “How dare a Deathkin shenzi be so cheeky in front of me? Tell me: how would you like to die?”
“I didn’t know there is anyone more arrogant than I am. Tell me your name; I don’t kill those who I don’t name their names,” said Qi Yang.
“Listen carefully, I am Bi Yunhai from Heavensea Realm. It is your honor to die at my hands.”
Bi Yunhai looked unusually confident while speaking, as if he was better than anyone else.
“I can’t believe Bi Yunhai has also come to Northern Region.”
The three Tu Brothers looked astounded.
Just then, there was a commotion among the cultivators on the four warships. All eyes were on Bi Yunhai.
“With Bi Yunhai here, winning the battle is already a foregone conclusion.”
“You are so right. Just look at how powerful he is. Even the Neverwither Supreme Saint lost to him. He was just as good as a Neverwither Supreme Saint. Qi Yang picking Bi Yunhai as his opponent is a big mistake. He is going to die.”
“I heard that Bi Yunhai had over eight million internal Precepts. It’s hard to imagine how a person could hold such an amount of Precept in the body.”
“Absolutely. Besides, Bi Yunhai has immortalized both of his arms. He has got Neverwither Supreme Saint’s Arm, which when performed, is no different from a Neverwither Supreme Saint.”
…
Many cultivators on the four warships were in high spirits, rubbing their hands as they could not wait to get down on the battlefield to fight alongside Bi Yunhai.
In their eyes, Bi Yunhai was a legend whom they had never had the chance to meet on normal days. Now, no one had any doubt that they were going to win because Bi Yunhai had come.
Upon hearing the chatter behind him, Bi Yunhai became even more confident and haughty. He was really flattered.
Meanwhile, Ji Fanxi remained silent, not letting down her guard just because Bi Yunhai was here.
Qi Yang’s expression was bitter with murderous intent in his eyes. “Oh, very well, Bi Yunhai. You will meet your death now. Aren’t you afraid?”
“A moment, please, Fairy. Let me get rid of him first.” Bi Yunhai’s confidence was at an all-time high.
He made his move, Neverwither saint light glowing on his arms as his acupoints opened and saint Qi rushed out like mad.
A jade-green sea appeared under his feet and spread in all directions, as if it was going to turn Xianji Mountain into an ocean.
The weather changed drastically within 7,000-mile radius of him as he gathered one third of the Precepts of Heaven and Earth to himself.
At this moment, Bi Yunhai seemed to be the lord of the small world within 7,000-mile radius, everything under his control.
After forming Precept Domain and as a start, he could mobilize the Precept of Heaven and Earth and harness its amazing energy.
But Percept Domain could only summon so much Precept of Heaven and Earth from within a hundred-mile radius at most, and not all the Precept could be summoned.
After attaining Heaven’s Reach, the ability of summoning Percept of Heaven and Earth would increase, and its range would expand to as far as a thousand-mile radius.
Once achieving Path’s Anterior and perfectly aligned with Precept of Heaven and Earth, the range would be at least a thousand-mile radius and at most, ten-thousand-mile radius.
A relatively less powerful Path’s Anterior fighter like Commander He Yun could form over 30-million Precepts and his range would be limited to within a thousand-mile radius.
Huo Nu was not much better than Commander He Yun. His number of Precepts was close to 50,000 with a range of two-thousand-mile radius.
But Huo Nu and Bi Yunhai were not in the same league. After all, Bi Yunhai’s effective range was a seven-thousand-mile radius and could summon one third of the Precepts. Such an ability was at all no less powerful than a Neverwither Supreme Saint.
Five-thousand miles was a threshold. Anyone who could summon Precept of Heaven and Earth beyond this range could cross this threshold and become a Neverwither Supreme Saint.
Throughout the Celestial Court and the Infernal Court, rarely anyone could have that attainment from the Saint Kinghood—not even the leader of a Macroworld.
With his own Precepts as the core and complemented with the Precept of Heaven and Earth, Bi Yunhai performed an unusually powerful palm strike.
The jade-green sea was expanding, sweeping the clouds and clearing up the sky.
“It is Azure Sky-Sea Palm, a Tongxuan-class intermediate saint technique. It looks like an advanced saint technique when performed by Bi Yunhai.”
Someone could not help but exclaim in awe when Bi Yunhai made the move.
Heavensea Realm ranked in the top one hundred in the Eastern Universe. But there were only three types of Tongxuan-class intermediate saint technique. Most people did not have the chance to learn, and even if they could, it was difficult to attain Dacheng Realm.
Azure Sky-Sea Palm was Heavensea Realm’s most well-known Tongxuan-class intermediate saint technique. It was incredibly powerful, almost as good as an advanced saint technique.
Apparently, Bi Yunhai’s Azure Sky-Sea Palm had attained Dacheng Realm. He totally mastered the essence of it.
If this was performed in an opened water, the power it produced would be even more incredible.
Qi Yang looked composed, not a hint showing he was panicking.
It was not until Bi Yunhai was making his palm strike that Qi Yang made his move, using his hand as a blade to slash forward.
His hand dragged a thousand-yard-long tail of blade light to meet the incoming azure sea.
Bi Yunhai’s hand blade cut the azure sea in half and crushed the Precept of Heaven and Earth.
“How could this be possible?”
Bi Yunhai was shocked.
Although he knew his palm move was not going to do any harm to Qi Yang, he did not expect Qi Yang to defeat his Azure Sky-Sea Palm so effortlessly.
“That’s all what you have got, huh? You are a real letdown!” Qi Yang sneered.
“Heavenly Sea Unbounded!”
Bi Yunhai immediately performed another palm strike, his looking stern.
He could only shine in front of everyone by defeating Qi Yang.
His last move was just a test. That came next was the actual battle. He was still confident that he could beat Qi Yang.
Ji Fanxin had retreated to one side and intercepted Commander He Yun.
On the other hand, Zhang Ruochen was still focusing on dealing with Huo Nu. The appearance of Qi Yang and Bi Yunhai had not distracted him.
Huo Nu, a Path’s Anterior fighter who could summon the Precepts of Heaven and Earth within 2,000-mile radius, could have suppressed Zhang Ruochen.
But Zhang Ruochen had mastered the advanced saint technique. Using his Dragon-Elephant Prajna Palm Strike, he could also summon the Precepts of Heaven and Earth to make up for his weaknesses.
This was the amazing thing about advanced saint technique, which was something only Supreme Saint could master. Once performed, it could trigger the vision and the Precept of Heaven of Heaven and Earth within a large area.
Of course, it was also because his Sky Soaring Dragon-elephant had attained the Dacheng Realm and he had refined the Supreme Saint-class dragon and elephant souls, using the saint soul of Beast Emperor to summon the Precept of Heaven and Earth was easy-peasy.
“Heavenly Dragon-Elephant!”
By gathering his internal saint Qi, Zhang Ruochen performed the most powerful palm strike.
He summoned the Precepts of Truth to increase his attack strength by eightfold.
Supreme Saint-class dragon and elephant souls appeared and showed their puissant ability. countless Precepts of Heaven and Earth circled around them, as if they were the core of this heaven and earth.
White flame went up on Huo Nu’s body as he performed a punch strike. The white flame formed into a lifelike and vicious Qiongqi beast.
Bang!
It did not take long before the Supreme Saint-class dragon and elephant souls ripped the Qiongqi into pieces.
Following immediately, a horrible energy hit Huo Nu, sending him flying out backward.
“Break this ear fortress!” Zhang Ruochen instructed as he summoned the evil spirit out of the Qiankun Realm.
After four years of closed-door self-cultivation practice, the evil spirit had completely coalesced with the corpse of the divine python and had the corpse totally under its control.
The divine python might have died a long time ago and its divine power dissipated, and Luo Ji had taken the remaining Stellar Soul of God. But this was a divine body, the residual divine power should not be underestimated.
The corpse of the divine python was especially tough—so much so that even a Supreme Artifact might not cause any harm to it.
“A piece of cake! Leave him to me.” The evil spirit was full of confidence.
Boom!
The evil spirit in the 3,000-yard-long body lunged out to attack the war fortress.
An overwhelming divine power rushed out of the evil spirit’s new body like a tidal wave as it declared war on the war fortress.
The war fortress was extremely solid. On top of that, it could align itself with the power of seven other war fortresses. Destroying the war fortress was extremely difficult.
However, there was now violent tremor ripped throughout the war fortress. Even the mountain peak below was shaking and crumpling.
The war fortress cracked in the middle and broke in half amid a loud rumble.
Down below, the mountain peak tumbled as magma burst out of the ground, the thick pungent smell of sulfur permeating the air.
