Invincible Divine Sword - Chapter 247
Chapter 247: Chapter 247: Bombed Beyond Recognition
Watching Yang Xiaotian’s assault, Guo Hong, in his shock and anger, roared, “Yang Xiaotian, I refuse to believe that I, the Crown Prince of the Four States, can be defeated by you!”
Having said this, he suddenly urged all the True Yuan within his body, unleashing the power of a Martial Ancestor of the tenthl pinnacle layer, which surged out like a tsunami.
Meanwhile, a Golden Core appeared above his head.
The Golden Core emitted a blood-red glow in all directions.
What Guo Hong was condensing was precisely the Chi Blood Golden Core, one of the supreme-grade Golden Cores.
Both were of supreme grade, but the Chi Blood Golden Core was even more formidable than the supreme-grade Golden Core that You Yi had condensed.
A sword appeared in Guo Hong’s hand, and under the frenzied urging of the Chi Blood Golden Core, the sword in his hand flashed with a chilling light.
“Flying Dragon in the Sky!” He leaped up, soaring like a dragon, thrusting with his sword. The Sword Qi seemed to span endless space, aiming for Yang Xiaotian’s chest.
The crimson light swallowed the heavens, the Sword Qi ethereal.
Witnessing Guo Hong’s strike, many of the Sect Elders around changed their expressions.
Flying Dragon in the Sky was the signature Divine Skill of the Flying Dragon Sword Saint.
Who was the Flying Dragon Sword Saint?
In terms of the Sword Dao, he was second only to the Green Lotus Sword Deity.
Watching the opponent’s Flying Dragon thrust, Yang Xiaotian, however, paid no heed, his fist’s force unchanging, continuing to hammer towards his opponent’s belly.
Thud!
Guo Hong was sent flying backward, crashing to the ground in the distance, vomiting blood ceaselessly, his face wracked with agony.
But just as Yang Xiaotian’s fist struck Guo Hong, Guo Hong’s Flying Dragon thrust also pierced Yang Xiaotian’s chest.
The crowd inevitably turned their gaze to Yang Xiaotian’s chest, only to see that where Guo Hong’s long sword had struck, there wasn’t even a mark.
Only his clothes were slightly torn.
Seeing this, everyone was shocked.
Especially the Sect Elders who were aware of the might of the Flying Dragon in the Sky, they were deeply astonished.
In the past, the Flying Dragon Sword Saint had swept through invincibles with the Flying Dragon in the Sky, with no equal in his domain, and even those of higher realm struggled to withstand his sword.
Now, Yang Xiaotian remained completely unharmed.
Yang Xiaotian’s defenses were horrifying to such a degree.
A year ago, during the True Dragon assessment, You Yi’s efforts to utilize the power of five Sword Steles from the Sword Path couldn’t even shake Yang Xiaotian’s True Dragon Tyrant Body.
Moreover, Yang Xiaotian had now awakened nearly seven thousand True Essence Dragons. His True Dragon Tyrant Body had achieved Great Accomplishment!
No matter how powerful Guo Hong’s Flying Dragon in the Sky thrust was, it could not breach the Great Accomplishment of the True Dragon Tyrant Body.
It was precisely because the True Dragon Tyrant Body had achieved Great Accomplishment that Yang Xiaotian dared to withstand the strike head-on.
Seeing that his Flying Dragon in the Sky thrust could not injure Yang Xiaotian, Guo Hong’s face finally underwent a drastic change.
At that moment, he was overcome with despair and helplessness.
He finally understood what it felt like when the Martial Ancestors of the Divine Dragon Empire couldn’t withstand even one of his moves.
Just then, Yang Xiaotian launched another punch.
“Yang Xiaotian, you dare!” The experts of the Four States Empire shouted in anger, ready to take action.
However, just as the experts of the Four States Empire were about to take action, suddenly, innumerable Sword Qi descended.
All the experts of the Four States Empire present were sent flying by the Sword Qi.
Including the one who had just reached the early stages of the tenth layer of the Saint Realm.
With one sword strike, dozens of experts from the Four States Empire were defeated.
Witnessing this scene, even Li Qianqian and Gu Shaozong, among the crowd, felt a violent tremor in their hearts.
Especially Li Qianqian, who looked in horror at the attacking Barefoot Elder Demon.
The strength of this black-clad man wearing a ghost mask was so formidable, he was most likely as strong as her grandfather.
This man was definitely not a high-ranking expert from the True Dragon Divine Sect.
When did such a peerless powerhouse appear beside Yang Xiaotian?
Thud!
Yang Xiaotian’s third punch blasted onto Guo Hong’s body.
Guo Hong was sent rolling along the ground, flying out into the distance.
Yang Xiaotian leapt forward, throwing another punch.
Guo Hong was sent rolling and flying once again.
Following that, Yang Xiaotian’s fifth punch, sixth punch, seventh punch…
As the onlookers witnessed Guo Hong, the Crown Prince of the Four States Empire, being sent rolling away by Yang Xiaotian’s blows, one punch after another, they were so shocked that they couldn’t find the words to speak for a long time.
“Yang Xiaotian!” The experts of the Four States Empire had their eyes almost bursting from their sockets, roaring incessantly.
With the continuous onslaught of Yang Xiaotian’s Asura Force, Guo Hong had long since been knocked unconscious.
But whenever he fell unconscious, he would be awakened once more by the blast of Yang Xiaotian’s Asura Force.
Thus, he kept falling unconscious and being awakened over and over.
By the time Yang Xiaotian had blasted out a hundred cycles of Asura Force, Guo Hong had rolled all the way out of the Imperial Capital and crashed into the mountains beyond.
People gazed at the Crown Prince of Four States, lying in a pile of broken stones in the depths of the mountains, and gasped in horror.
Was this still a human being?
He had been so devastated that he was unrecognizable as a person.
Even the Barefoot Elder Demon and Tian Zhengyi’s group of four couldn’t help but show pity in their eyes as they looked at Guo Hong.
Poor kid, out of all the people to provoke, he had to choose their young master.
In the crowd, Li Qianqian and Gu Shaozong trembled at the sight of Guo Hong’s miserable state, and a deep fear welled up in their hearts.
Initially, when they left the tavern, they had thought about challenging Yang Xiaotian to another alchemy competition, but now, even with a hundred guts, they wouldn’t dare to challenge Yang Xiaotian again.
After blasting out a hundred cycles of Asura Force, Yang Xiaotian finally left with the Barefoot Elder Demon, Tian Zhengyi, and the four others.
It wasn’t until Yang Xiaotian and his group had left far behind that the people of the Four States Empire managed to gather their courage and hurried to Guo Hong’s side, digging the unrecognizable Guo Hong out of the pile of rocks.
Seeing Guo Hong so devastated that he no longer resembled a human, the eyes of the Four States Empire’s people were filled with tears.
“Your Majesty, we have failed you!” The early-stage Saint Realm Elder cried out to the heavens.
Our Crown Prince has been so tragically devastated!
A moment later, Yang Xiaotian arrived at the Imperial Palace and met with Qingxuan, Long Lan, and the father of Qingxuan, Long Jiyi.
Upon hearing that Yang Xiaotian had arrived, Qingxuan dashed out of the palace, and as soon as she saw Yang Xiaotian from a distance, she waved her hand and called out with joy, “Brother Xiaotian!”
Long Lan stepped forward, smiling at Yang Xiaotian, “You little rascal, making such a big commotion as soon as you get to the Imperial Capital.”
The news of Yang Xiaotian beating Guo Hong beyond recognition had already spread throughout the Imperial Capital.
Afterward, Long Lan introduced Yang Xiaotian to Qingxuan’s father, Long Jiyi.
“I’ve had the honor of meeting Your Majesty,” Yang Xiaotian said with a bow.
Long Jiyi nodded and smiled, “I have long heard of your renown, Divine Yang. Seeing you today, indeed, you are a heroic youth.”
Yang Xiaotian felt somewhat embarrassed by the praise.
“Brother Xiaotian, thank you,” said Qingxuan, holding Yang Xiaotian’s hand with delight.
Clearly, she knew her Brother Xiaotian had learned she was bullied by Guo Hong and had come to take revenge for her.
“How are your injuries?” Yang Xiaotian asked.
Qingxuan smiled sweetly upon hearing Yang Xiaotian’s concern for her, “I’m already better.” She then waved her little arms for Yang Xiaotian to see and added, “If I train for a few more years, Guo Hong will definitely be no match for me.”
Thereafter, Long Lan and the others ushered Yang Xiaotian into the main hall, where a banquet had been prepared, and invited him to take his seat.
Long Jiyi smiled at Yang Xiaotian, “Qingxuan says the barbecue you cook is really delicious. Next time, I must have a good taste of it.”
Yang Xiaotian chuckled, “Qingxuan is just talking nonsense, it’s just an ordinary barbecue.”
Qingxuan crinkled her nose, “I’m not talking nonsense!”
They all laughed together.
Come nightfall, Yang Xiaotian stayed in a palace arranged by Long Jiyi.
However, Long Jiyi and Long Lan found themselves discussing the group of four, including the Barefoot Elder Demon who accompanied Yang Xiaotian.
